"Here we go. Ice bears in my right hand. Shotgun! Let go! Tanatos, step forward."

"" "" Shotgun "" "

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooo"

More than a month has passed since we entered the snowy mountain.

Somehow, I often think Gran has crossed these places.

I thought it would be tough just to cross into a harsh snow environment, but even monsters came along.

The monster still appeared on the eastern expedition route.

A fierce bear, called an ice bear, who spits out a huge chunk of ice from his mouth, moves his four legs towards us.

Its ability to move fairly quickly and without any problems on the scaffolding's unstable snow or ice is frightening.

Above all, the color of the body was white and the terrain was difficult to distinguish, so I didn't notice until I was approached.

The Eastern Expeditionaries began intercepting such a dangerous monster.

Multiple fired Shotgun , slapping the ice bear in the face and slowing the momentum slightly.

Then, Tanatos turned into a giant and hit the ice bear with a Wanyi dragon stick that grew to match it.

A lot of snow dances in the sky.

Then there was a lot of red blood flowing over the pure white snow.

Tanatos, if you're finished, I need your help.

But that's not the end.

From another direction than the ice bear, another monster appeared and attacked us.

And there were multiple of them.

Four-handed ice monkeys.

Monkeys with two legs and four arms make snowballs in their hands and throw them.

The snowball is not just like a snowball battle, but is it magically reinforced, and boasts power that is not enough if it hits.

After defending it with Wall Architecture , I'll approach it with Valkyrie and cut it down one by one.

And just like me, the cavalry deals with four-handed ice monkeys with Riding Magic and Armor Enhancement .

Tanatos, who defeated the ice bear, met there and the battle was finally over.

"Hmm, that's it. Hurry up and report the damage. Looks like the ice sperms found the next ice sucker."

Monsters attacking the Oriental Expeditionary Army moving through the Great Snow Mountains.

All of them have adapted to snow mountains, and if you take one wrong step, you'll get a lot of damage.

But he managed to defeat them, but he kept on moving.

My [Ice Spirit Summon] will be the one who keeps moving the Great Snow Mountain for so long.

Ice sperm like the ball of light has no fighting power.

But even though it was so cold, I could get a lot out of it, and they absorbed the surrounding cold and enabled me to move without freezing the soldiers.

And those icy sperms, they've been giving me directions since I entered this snowy mountain.

When Paul showed me the ice pick for the first time, the ice pickers I summoned became attracted to the ice pick.

I was worried that I might stay away from the ice absorbing stone, but apparently it didn't.

I built a shelter on the spot and rested overnight, after which the ice sperms took my orders away from the ice suckers to relieve the cold.

Apparently, the ice sperms sucked their power from the ice absorbing stone, which became my opinion afterwards.

A large ice-like crystalline ice absorbing stone has a similar effect to ice sperm, absorbing the surrounding cold and relieving the surrounding cold.

And this ice-absorbing stone seems to get bigger the colder it absorbs.

Deep into the snowy mountains, the ice-absorbing stones seen there were higher altitudes and colder temperatures.

And what's interesting is that the size of the ice absorbing stone was slightly smaller than the original size when the ice absorbing stone clumped together overnight.

I think this is definitely because I actually measured the size.

Perhaps the ice absorbing stone will grow by absorbing the surrounding cold, and the ice sperms will be absorbing it as energy.

The ice sperms, which are just balls of light, are floating in the fluffy universe somehow with joy, so there's probably no doubt about it.

The properties of this glacial sperm were useful in another sense.

That's how to navigate the snowy mountains.

I summoned more ice cream than a few soldiers, and as I went through the snowy mountains, I asked them to find out if there were any ice sucking stones around.

And when I was moving, I sometimes saw ice sucking stones, which led me as if the ice sperms had discovered them and taught me directions before I could get into sight.

However, following its lead can cause snow to fall into hidden ground tears.

Paul and Valkyrie, who were familiar with the mountains, checked the terrain and headed east towards the next ice-sucking stone.

Go to the ice absorbing stones that are dotted and discover them, and build shelters and bases there.

That's how I've been moving for over a month.

I think I have moved a long distance physically, but what is the actual situation?

Sometimes it took a long time to grasp the terrain and slowed my feet because of heavy snow.

But it's definitely moving forward.

Sometimes I use healing magic even with minor wounds, and so far I am not a deserter.

The movement of the snowy mountain, which is said to be difficult to trample, is generally successful.

"Still, I wasn't expecting a monster to attack me this far. Was that the same when Tanatos crossed the snowy mountains before?

I see. I think I did. But not this time. "

I see. Is it because of the large number of people, or has it stimulated the monsters' territory?

"I guess so. But if you're going to attack me, you can take it down. It's a precious food."

"Indeed. Precious animal protein. It may be made of other ingredients than meat, and we need to remember to put it in a magic bag and take it home."

Speak to Tanatos while rinsing the warm soup in my magical shelter.

Speak to each other about the fight against the monsters that took place today.

But it was over soon.

Next to Tanatos, who was lying down earlier, I asked the correspondents to write down the terrain of Mt. Tai Snow and the location of the ice-absorbing stone, that is, the location where the shelter base was built, against the paper illuminated with [lighting].

After that, I will rest and prepare for tomorrow without wasting more mouths.

So our snowy mountain crossing continued.

Then, after time had passed since we left in autumn, at the end of the year, we finally crossed the snowy mountains and descended eastward.

We succeeded in finding a snow-closed mountain village, a human settlement.
