Chapter 76 Northern Snowfield
Two days later, it was time for Zhou Chen's sixth Survival mission.
[Survival mission is about to begin. Please be prepared.]
[Teleportation begins…]
[Northern Snowfield
Difficulty: Mid Bronze
[Mission: Survive for ten days.]
Prompt:
1: There are no drops from killing monsters in this dungeon, but some of the native items can be brought back to Planet Blue. You can also learn skills from the natives.
2: Your starting identity is a refugee.
3: You are given the basic native language knowledge of the natives. You can communicate with them.]
At this moment, Zhou Chen realized that he was standing at the foot of a snow mountain. His surroundings were snow-white, and snowflakes were falling from the sky. Even with his powerful physique, he felt a little cold.
There were two others standing within ten meters of him. One of them was a thin, tall, and refined-looking young man in a black leather suit and black semi-rimless glasses. The other was a tall, stern-looking girl with a saber by her waist and dressed in white casual clothes.
The bespectacled young man was also observing his teammates. He glanced at the stern girl and then looked at Zhou Chen. A smile appeared on his face.
"Brother, your clothes look a little thin. How about I give you something to wear?"
"No need, thank you."
Zhou Chen smiled and refused.
"How about you, miss?"
The refined young man then looked at the tall girl standing a few meters away.
"No need."
The girl's voice was as cold as her expression. The atmosphere immediately became a little awkward.
After a short silence, the refined youth coughed slightly and said,
"Since we are on this mission together, it's fate. There's no need to be so reserved. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Huang, you can call me Little Huang. I'm good at finding monsters."
"My surname is Zhou, and I'm good at fighting monsters."
Zhou Chen quickly replied.
"Surname is Li. I am good at killing humans and monsters."
The tall and cold girl said after Zhou Chen.
"Oh, then our team is quite well rounded. Let's work together and pass ten days."
The refined young man nodded.
"Let's find some natives and see if we can borrow a place to live."
Zhou Chen had already observed the surrounding situation and suggested.
"Hmm, the temperature in this place is too low. It's not realistic to survive outside for ten days. We need the help of the natives."
The young man immediately agreed and looked at the tall girl.
Seeing that the tall girl did not show any expression, the two of them chose to walk away from the foot of the mountain. After all, no one wanted to climb the snowy mountain.
The three of them walked in this world of snow for more than half an hour until a round bump appeared in the snow.
"A native house?"
The refined young man immediately quickened his pace and went to observe.
A few seconds later, the three of them saw clearly. It was a round cabin built of ice and snow. Apart from a pile of gray ashes, there was nothing in the room.
The refined young man walked in and bent down to touch the ashes on the ground. His eyes immediately lit up.
"There's still some heat here. Looks like someone was here not long ago."
Zhou Chen glanced at the surrounding snow and found that he could not see any footprints. They were probably covered by the falling snow.
"Let's continue forward. We should be able to encounter some natives soon."
The three of them continued to walk in the snow. Along the way, they left deep footprints, and their heads and clothes were covered in white snow.
After dozens of minutes, they finally encountered a native, but this one was burly and hostile.
It was a polar bear. It was about four meters long and its shoulder height was similar to an adult's height. When it saw the three people in the snow about 100 meters away, it charged over like a tank.
"Run or fight?"
Seeing the large polar bear charging over, the refined young man calmly glanced at Zhou Chen and the tall girl beside him.
"Fight."
The tall girl was the first to respond. Then, she drew her saber and charged at the polar bear.
Zhou Chen also did not speak further. He took out the steel ironwood spear he had bought a few days ago and circled around the bear.
The refined young man also walked towards the polar bear, but he walked slower and stayed at the back.
At this moment, the tall girl had already begun fighting the polar bear. She agilely dodged the beast's pounce and quickly ran up its body, and stabbed the saber at its eyes.
However, the polar bear was not a fool. It used its claws that were twice the size of a human head to protect its eyes. At the same time, it rolled on the snow, wanting to throw the tall girl down or crush her to death.
However, its actions were ineffective. The tall girl's movements were agile and fast. She quickly jumped off the bear's body and retreated to a safe place.
When the bear sensed that the detestable enemy had retreated and was about to adjust its posture to chase after her, Zhou Chen's attack arrived.
Zhou Chen was very fast. He decisively stabbed the iron spear into its thigh, making it cry out in pain.
"Seize the opportunity! I can immobilize it for half a second!"
The refined young man who had been standing at the back suddenly shouted. Then, an inexplicable pressure swept through the air. The originally violent bear suddenly fell into a daze.
The tall girl who was moving nearby immediately took the opportunity to charge into the bear's body like lightning and stabbed her saber into one of its eyes.
Zhou Chen had already stabbed the spear into its other eye.
A second later, this huge beast weakly struggled, or it might be better to say twitched a few times before dying.
"Good teamwork. How do we deal with this corpse?"
The refined young man standing a few meters away looked at Zhou Chen and the tall girl with a smile.
"Skin it."
The girl immediately replied.
"There's no hurry. Let's hide it first. We can keep it for meat or sell it to the natives."
Zhou Chen felt that these two should not be professional in skinning. Moreover, it would be a little troublesome to carry the corpse after skinning it. It was better to hide it first and decide later.
"Makes sense. There's no one here, and the temperature is low, so there's no problem storing it for a few days."
The young man nodded in agreement.
The tall girl gave up on her thoughts when she saw this. She sheathed her saber and worked together with the group to bury the bear's corpse in the snow.
This process was relatively simple. They were done after about ten minutes. The remaining work would be done by the falling snow.
After marking the area, the three of them continued forward to search for the natives.
