The goose-feather-like snow fell into the palm of a black holstered hand, and as the palm was closed, the snowflakes turned into flakes of fine powder and drifted away in the wind. Belmode clapped his hands and glanced at the dense woods behind him. The wind blowing there was scorching, out of step with the cold wind that now enveloped the forest. It was Reina's breath, and a faint smile overflowed on Belmode's face: "Reina and Master Alan are completely two different people." ”

Regis, who was sitting on the tactical speeder, nodded, "That guy is a Tyrannosaurus." Rude, proud, no matter what, you will only use force to solve everything, and with him, you have to carry a sword with you at all times. ”

The two were talking, and the light in the forest behind them suddenly dimmed. Then a fireball rose from the forest, and the surface of the fireball was dark red, like the ocean at midnight. In between, there were swirls of fire, which were actually several energy storms. The fireball exploded, sending several black-red pillars of fire up, and the foehn wind and heat wave were pushed in that direction with such eagerness.

The snow melted and turned into a mist that washed over countless ancient trees and shrubs, and in an instant painted a corner of the forest a gray color.

For a few seconds, all Regers heard was a rumbling noise. It forced him to cover his ears, and the two eyebrows were almost twisted together. He seemed to be saying something, but the explosion was so loud that Belmode couldn't hear what he was saying.

After the hot smoke and fog passed, a cloud of snow poured down from the heights, over the chassis of the speeding car, and reached Belmode's feet. Regis had already gotten into the car, and he opened the door and said, "Are you coming in?" ”

"Wait."

"The Tyrannosaurus rex is fine, I think those rats will blow up." Regers spread his palms.

Belmode replied, and a voice took his place: "I have to admit that you little dog is sometimes quite pertinent." ”

It was Reina, who strode in with a wave of heat. The straight waist is like a king patrolling the territory. Everywhere he went, the snow melted away, opening a way for him to reach the speed car.

Regers pouted, "I swear, if you call me a puppy again, I'll greet you with a knife and a sword." ”

"But you call me a tyrannosaurus." Reina smiled and gave a childish answer.

Regis exhaled, "Well, I'm not going to call you Tyrannosaurus anymore." ”

"That's it, Regess."

Reyna got into another flying car: "Let's go, let's see how lucky we are." If we can run into a Jotun army, then our military merits will be lost. ”

"I'd love to run into Alan." Regers slammed the door shut, "He'll be okay, right?" ”

"He'll be fine."

He said this to himself, and started the speedy car. The two tactical speeders restarted, and after a few moments of elevation above the ground, they flew forward in the snowstorm. The wind and snow were still blowing, and they began to drift through the woods and fall to a charred mess. Here the old trees are toppling and the shrubs are turning to ashes. The snow burned into a large round crater, and the ground was covered with crystalline black crystals.

That's the mark that sent Reyna out with a lava projectile.

Wherever words like underground and cave are involved, most of them are damp and gloomy. Alan used to think so, but now he doesn't. The deeper you explore the underground caves, the more you will find that the temperature does not fall but rises. Warm light came from the depths of the passage, through the cracks in the mountain walls. The result is a bright, warm, dry underworld.

Thanks to the warm light, the plants that grow on the mountain walls or on the ground are no longer dark or gray. They began to have a bright color, but instead of the green that is common on the ground, they are vibrant reds and oranges. The mountain walls are blue to blue, and with the embellishment of these bright plants, the scene in the depths of the cave is as beautiful as a mural.

A few fine pieces of sand rolled from Alan's feet, and the passage was gentle, but still downward. There are countless underground passages like this, and this huge labyrinth resembles the roots of a giant stone tree, with twisted and intertwined branches forming an incredibly complex structure. Alan suspected that they could reach the heart of the earth, the heart of the planet.

It's not impossible.

And the underground caverns he had explored now were more and deeper than the federal sources showed. During this time, Alan dissected several underground creatures that were not in the data, and this information could also be exchanged for military exploits of varying value. Whether it's the Federation or Idahuaxing, they don't deliberately go deep into the ground to explore. For them, the snow crystals associated with the surface are the greatest value of the planet Frost.

Although the frost is small, it is also relative. The underground is extremely deep and wide, and if you have to explore it, it will take a lot of manpower and material resources. In the end, the cost performance is too low. The scope of the exploration missions at the Kaiyan base also includes the discovery of the underworld. It's just that no one will waste their energy underground, even if Alan is forced by the situation, but the place he has explored, compared to the entire underground world, is like a drop of sea water to the entire ocean, but it is just a drop in the ocean.

Alan ripped off the sleeve of his tactical suit and tore it into strips of cloth and tied it to the wound on his left arm. Now he was almost covered in strips of cloth, and his blade armor was covered in cracks, real rifts. There are two gaps that almost pierce through the armor, but fortunately there is no magic sequence that hits the armor, otherwise this armor will only be left with pure defense.

The cracks and gaps were due to Catherine, the rifts behind them were the work of the snake and sickle, and the few gaps were the work of the scorpion. During the two days of fighting, Catherine appeared more frequently than before, and the intensity of her attacks continued to increase, which made Eren suffer more and more injuries. During this time, Alan had already used up a stimulant before he was freed from Catherine's stormy offensive.

Catherine seemed to be losing her patience, or perhaps gradually making up her mind. In short, Alan could clearly feel that death was at his side. The scythe hanging over his head could be slashed at any moment, taking his life. Under such pressure, Alan showed amazing resilience and his skills grew rapidly.

This qiē is all forced out.

Open the rucksack and the nutrients have been depleted. There were only a few stimulants left, Alan smiled wryly. Without nutrients, physical energy consumption is a big problem. The food aspect is okay, but the fresh water is difficult. So far, he only knew that the leaves of some ferns were rich in water, but the efficiency of these leaves to absorb water from underground organisms was far less efficient than that of nutrients.

But now, he can only accept this fact. Alan leaned against a warm rock, plucked a nearby fern leaf with a dagger, and then picked up three or five leaves and threw them into his mouth to chew. Biting down on the leaves, a burst of bitter leaf juice flowed into his mouth, making him almost want to vomit. But in the end, it was swallowed by him with the leaves. The water and fibers in the veins are sufficient to sustain the needs of survival.

As for the taste, it is completely negligible at such a time.

Like a herbivore, Alan ate the fern leaves clean, leaving only the bare dead leaves. When he reached out to pick it again, a red shadow suddenly appeared from the fern cluster. Allen's reaction was not slow, and the dagger in his hand turned upward. The tip of the knife immediately felt like it had stabbed the real thing, and the thing that was stabbed by the dagger twisted violently, and the force was not small. Eren thrust his backhand down, nailing him to the ground. Only then did I realize that it was a snake-like creature.

The body of this thing is as thick as an arm, and the head is triangular. It has no eyes and a row of fine holes for breathing. The mouth is covered with fangs, and a tongue with a nearly transparent viscous liquid spits out from the mouth. On the head is a sac of flesh, the surface of which is folded. The texture is translucent, so that a small, human thalamus-like organ can be seen inside.

The body is covered in a knotty, dark red shell. Thorns of uneven distribution and length protrude from the back. Black lines spread across the shell, making the underground creature look more like some kind of poisonous snake.

It's a whole new creature again, and before that, Eren hadn't seen anything like it. And as we go deeper into the earth, these unknown lives are becoming more and more numerous.

Alan faithfully recorded it, dissected the creature casually, and found a sac of flesh in its body that stored clear water. After cutting it with a dagger, the fishy smell of water flowed into Alan's mouth, and this thing was much more efficient at replenishing water than fern leaves.

A water bladder is also very limited, only about 100 milliliters, but it is already a rare nectar for Allen. If he encounters such creatures again on the way, Eren is not afraid of running out of water to drink, they are simply mobile water reservoirs.

A chaotic sound suddenly sounded from the back of the cave, and Eren immediately drew his dagger and lifted the blood hidden. Turning his head, he saw several strange beasts the size of dogs, but with disproportionately large heads, and their mouths wide open, speeding in his direction. Among these strange beasts were two more lurkers, and they galloped through the cave passages, and they came with a fishy wind.

Allen's eyes lit up, and in his sight, a figure flashed from behind a lurking monster.

Catherine!

Not only did she drive away the subterranean creatures, but she hid among them. When Ellen's eyes met, the scorpion spear in the major general's hand had already been thrown out of his hand, and the scorpion spear brought the camera to whirl, crossed a natural arc, and nailed it towards Allen's chest. The point of the spear made Alan feel a pinprick of danger.
