If it weren't for the fact that Systm had gained powerful eyesight after his third metamorphosis, he would not have been able to notice these little things in the air at all.

Sistemm had never seen this insect before the snow and ice, and it seemed that it was a small insect adapted to survive in the cold.

The white insect is small, less than 0.1 millimeters in size, and even when Systm first woke up, it was dozens of times the size of this small insect.

The white insects have two pairs of wings, resembling flies, and they gather in hundreds, looking like ice and snow swept up by the cold wind from a distance.

Systm tried to inspect the small bugs with his tentacles, but the insects were so small and smooth that they could not be felt even when rolled up with their tentacles, and could not be examined with [Sense].

Barely caught and put in his mouth, Syst didn't taste anything special, and it was estimated that he should be able to taste the taste by swallowing dozens of them in one bite, but it was too difficult to catch that way.

……

The tiny insect encountered in the snow and ice did not help Sistemm in any real way, but it did provide him with hope of survival.

Just like the five-day rainstorm, life in the forest gradually recovers after the rainstorm, and in this ice and snow, the forest will not be extinct, even insects can survive.

No, he could go to the blue lake hundreds of kilometers away to catch some fish and shrimp, just like the white bear of Nellis's previous contractor.

Using his tentacles to continue climbing the trees, the Sith once again used his tentacles to swing between the branches.

Not far from here, there was a tree with butterfly pupae hanging from it, which was probably the same species that Heatham had found before his second metamorphosis.

At the beginning, because he had a large number of ants to feed him, he didn't need to worry about food at all, so after he found these butterfly and insect pupae, he only tested two with his tentacles, and ignored the others, which can now be used as his food reserves.

A few minutes later, Systham came to the tree covered with butterfly pupae, and there were about fifty of them.

Through the touch of tentacles and the use of [Psychic Transmission], Systham found that most of the more than fifty pupae had died due to the severe cold, and only three were still alive.

Moreover, two of these three are already extremely weak and are expected to die soon, leaving only one butterfly pupa with abundant vitality in its body.

Picking off this vibrant pupa and using his tentacles to [perceive], Sith found that this pupa possessed a frosty energy, and Sistem couldn't check what it was for a while, but it could undoubtedly survive in the ice and snow.

After trying to communicate with this pupa for a while with [Psychic Transmission], and finding it difficult to communicate, Systm decided to bring this pupa back to the temporary nest and study it slowly in the future.

………………

And just as Systum used his tentacles to transport a dozen of them back to the lair and back again, Systm's tentacles felt strange footsteps in the wind and snow, and soon he noticed an uninvited guest in the distance, a two-meter-tall humanoid with white skin and ice-blue armor.

The white-skinned humanoids were extremely ugly, with bald heads and pointed ears, and Sistemm looked a bit like the goblins he had seen before, just like the goblin giants.

The giant goblin held a large ice crystal axe in both hands, and he kept looking around, as if searching for something.

After a few minutes, the giant goblin found his target, and he walked straight to a tall tree with many forks, and picked up the axe in his hand.

"Cutting down trees? What is it going to do? ”

Systm put the butterfly chrysalis in his tentacle grip in his mouth, and he watched the goblin giant's movements from afar as he ate the ice cream-like chrysalis.

Just as Sistemm is not good at digging, this goblin giant who makes axes can't cut wood.

Even Systham, who had never cut down a tree before, knew that cutting trees should be done in the same part over and over again, rather than slashing at the trees with an axe.

"Is this goblin going to practice his axe with this tree?"

Systm watched the Goblin Giant's chopping motion from afar, and felt that it didn't look like it, as if the Goblin Giant was simply chopping down trees.

Despite the Goblin Giant's terrible logging methods, with his strong physique, it took about an hour for the Goblin Giant to bring down the tree.

Sistemm thought that the goblin giant would do something when he cut down the tree, but he didn't expect the goblin to give up the felled tree, pick up the axe and search around.

Seeing the Goblin Giant leave, Systum uses his tentacles to move and land on top of the downed tree.

This felled tree, Sistem, has been seen several times in the forest, with broad, oval-shaped leaves and oval-shaped green nuts growing around two centimeters.

The trees emitted a strange smell, and Sistemm felt a little familiar every time he saw it, but he couldn't think of what it was.

With his tentacles, Syst plucked a green nut from a twig, which, in addition to its harder skin, had a decent fruit inside, similar to the experience provided by a mushroom of the same weight, and was also a good food reserve.

With a wave of his tentacles, Sistemm continued to pick a few of the tree's fruits, putting them in his mouth and chewing them.

The sound of axes clashing with trees was heard again......

Trythme, who was gnawing on nuts, noticed that the Goblin Giant was about thirty meters away from the tree, and continued to chop it with his axe.

Heatham climbed the tree again and watched from afar, and he noticed that the goblin was chopping down the same two trees.

"Could it be that this tree is hiding some secrets?"

Sistemm thought as he ate the nuts of the tree, which had a peculiar smell that he always felt familiar but couldn't recall clearly.

In terms of the shape of the tree and its fruit, it resembles the oak tree from Heatham's memories of his previous life.

"Oak?"

The head of the insect showed a puzzled expression, and it didn't take long for the puzzled expression of Systm to suddenly become clear.

He finally remembered why the smell of the tree was so familiar, it was not a plant, nor some kind of insect or animal, but from the old druid.

There must be some special connection between the goblin giant who chopped down oak trees and the old druid who smelled of oak trees.

As Sistemm continued to ponder, a leopard-like creature with blond fur and black spots appeared from a distance, alerting Sistrem's [intuition].

[Frost Form] is activated!

Systm immediately transforms into Frost Form and uses his tentacles to climb to the top of the nearby tree......
