After Chris turned into a real dragon, the bodies of both parties were reversed, and the ice toad looked like a small child in front of him.
He moved his body and ran towards the fifth-level monster.
At this moment, the ice toad was frightened out of its wits. In its limited knowledge, a larger body has greater combat power, so it turned around and ran away with all four limbs.
"Want to run? It's too late!" Chris sneered. He opened his mouth wide, took a deep breath, and then spit out blazing dragon flames.
No troublemaker has ever been able to leave peacefully in front of him, never before, and never again in the future.
The dragon's flames burned on the ice toad's back. All the ice bumps on its surface melted and its skin was scorched. The searing pain caused it to scream in agony.
Chris sprayed as he walked, and had already arrived behind the ice toad.
After spitting out the dragon flames, he opened his mouth wide and bit the opponent's neck.
The ice toad struggled violently and kicked its limbs wildly, but it could not resist Chris's bite.
Chris pushed his claws forward and used his sharp teeth to tear off a large piece of meat.
Light blue blood spilled all over the floor, leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.
"Bah!" He spat out the meat in his mouth, and Chris spat a few more times.
The ice toad did not give up its struggle. It immediately rolled to the side and flicked its disgusting tongue over at the same time.
Chris reached forward with his left paw, got entangled in the tongue, and then pulled hard.
In a competition of strength, the little toad was no match, and it was pulled forward and staggered.
Chris swung his right paw forward and hit one of the ice toad's eyes.
"Squeak!" A white and translucent gel sputtered out and fell into the paw, making it sticky.
Chris grabbed the opponent's tongue tightly, making it impossible for him to break free, and then stabbed his claws into the ice toad's body one after another.
The tongue was originally supposed to be used to bind Chris, but now it became the shackles of the ice toad himself.
I don't know how many times I waved my claws, but the ice toad's head was already covered in blood and flesh, and there was no breath at all.
Chris threw the body away casually, shook off the blood on his paws, and returned to his human form.
He summoned Long Xiao, cut a long slit in the ice toad's belly, and rummaged inside.
Finally, Chris found a round bead the size of a peach from a pile of organs.
The bead was light blue in color and had a very smooth surface. You could faintly see a vague toad pattern inside.
The fifth-level magic core is the only one that is most valuable in the whole body.
Its meat is not very tasty, so there is no need to store it.
As for whether it has medicinal value, Chris doesn't care, because the epidermis has been damaged by himself, and there are not many intact parts.
He kicked the ice toad's body away with one kick, and the huge body fell into the snow pit, and was soon buried by the heavy snow.
After Chris washed the blood off his hands with snow, he rested on the spot and continued to search for traces of the Ice Snow Lotus.
The strong wind blew "whirring" like a devil's howl.
Chris estimated that the temperature on the snow-capped mountains should be about 50 or 60 degrees below zero. If an ordinary person were here, they would probably freeze into popsicles.
Fortunately, the unbreakable glazed armor had good thermal insulation properties, so he didn't feel cold.
Chris walked step by step, and heavy snow came, hindering his pace.
Because the recovery speed of Demon Fighting Qi is relatively slow, he does not dare to use the dragon form to rush on the road. He must adjust his state to its peak as soon as possible.
There are many dangers in the snowy mountains, so it is better to be careful.
······
The sun has set, but the white snow is not too dark, and you can barely see the surrounding scenery clearly.
His stomach began to growl, so Chris took out a tent from the space ring and pitched it. He decided to camp here tonight.
The meat stored in the ring was frozen hard as soon as it was taken out, and it was impossible to make a fire using primitive ignition methods here.
Fortunately, Chris specializes in fire magic. He only needs to snap his fingers and a blazing flame will burn in the palm of his hand.
After grilling the meat with magic flame, Chris sprinkled a little seasoning on it and started eating happily.
After eating, he walked into the tent, lay down on the wool blanket and began to sleep.
Because Reimu was not in his body at the moment, Chris's sleep was very light. He had to remain vigilant at all times, as there might be a monster on the snow-capped mountains that would attack him at night.
······
It was a peaceful night, and the next morning, the golden sun rose from the east.
Chris walked out of the tent, and the snow was glowing with a golden light under the sunlight, which was really beautiful.
After a simple breakfast, he continued his search.
"Hey, it looks like a city there?" Chris saw from a distance a vague outline of a city on the top of another mountain, but it was too far away to see clearly.
Fortunately, after a night of training, Chris's demonic fighting spirit has fully recovered.
He no longer hesitated and ran towards the mountain quickly.
As he got closer, Chris was surprised to see that there was actually a city there.
The city wall is made of ice, covered with a layer of snow, and blends in seamlessly with the surroundings. You can't even notice it if you don't look carefully.
"Calm down." Chris took a deep breath, "I don't know what kind of people live in that city. I want to negotiate with them in the kindest tone possible."
About half an hour later, he arrived at the city gate.
The height of the city wall is about thirty meters, and its surface is not smooth. The wall is full of pits and looks very rough.
On the front there are two ice doors more than five meters high, with the three characters "Ice City" crookedly written above them.
This made Chris very happy, indicating that there was no communication barrier between the people in the city and him.
On the city wall, stood seven or eight tall figures holding ice spears.
They are about three meters tall, covered with white hair, and very strong.
Those people's faces are all normal faces, and they all look very handsome.
They had noticed Chris a long time ago, and his red figure was very conspicuous in the ice and snow.
Chris raised his head, put his hands to his mouth, and shouted: "Hey!"
"Human, this is not where you should come. Go back where you came from." A white-haired man said.
Chris asked loudly: "I'm here to get some information. Have you ever heard of the plant Ningbing Snow Lotus?"
"No, please come back. It's for your own good. If you continue to stay, you will die here."
Chris was a little reluctant, perhaps because of the difference in title, or perhaps because the other party was deceiving him.
He didn't believe that someone living in the snowy mountains would not know about such a precious medicinal herb as ice snow lotus.
