Daniel was torn apart like a piece of cake by countless sharp teeth, a scene fully witnessed by Yang Fan.
He looked a bit startled: "The Cold Abyss is really too dangerous."
According to the impressions from the Dream Realm, the Cold Abyss is an area notorious for its many giants, a place that all the Civilization Worlds avoid.
Yang Fan was worried about charging in recklessly and becoming a snack for the giants, so he sent Daniel in first to scout the way.
In hindsight, it was a very wise decision.
This body is the original, and with its Warrior Level strength, it wouldn't last a moment before the giant.
The reason is simple—this giant is a monster of Knight Level.
The giant's size is so immense that even a High Rank Knight might not be a match for it.
On the other hand.
He completely dismissed the idea of entering the Cold Abyss, even though there are quite a few rare resources there.
Yang Fan smacked his lips and muttered softly: "Mr. Daniel, farewell and safe travels!"
It is because there are too many people like Daniel that the Carmenia Federation loves to cause trouble.
With one less of such people, the world would have a bit less disaster.
"Splash!"
The gigantic tentacle in the Cold Abyss submerged back beneath the Ice Sea.
At that moment.
Yang Fan felt a faint sense of being watched.
The tentacle projection in the Illusory Ice Lake ahead broke through the waves and swam rapidly towards him.
Clearly.
The giant, across the spatial barrier, sensed his presence.
Yang Fan moved his right hand, and the Shuttle Boat appeared out of thin air.
"Dong!"
He only heard a phantom sound.
The Ice Lake instantly changed.
Although the Ice Lake originally appeared illusory, it had some sense of reality.
Now, the Ice Lake became very faint, looking like a low-resolution image, and the tentacles directly disappeared.
Yang Fan couldn't help but chuckle: "The new ability of the Shuttle Boat is quite handy!"
Back when he was in Linjiang City, his avatar carried the Shuttle Boat, traveling back and forth to the Celestial Pillar Icefield in the Primordial World.
This Supreme Treasure has undergone a bit of evolution again, able to mobilize the power of space to a certain extent to block the Spatial Rift.
The change in the Ice Lake is the result of the Rift being suppressed.
And as the Rift shrinks, the force seeping in from the Cold Abyss decreases, causing the giant's shadow to vanish.
Of course.
It can only suppress.
Not close.
The appearance of the Rift is essentially a manifestation of the power of heaven and earth, which the Supreme Treasure's power is not sufficient to counter.
Yang Fan gazed at the Ice Lake and sighed: "I can only notify the military to seal off this area."
This is the most prudent course of action.
World Rifts are not stable and typically disappear naturally after a while.
Yang Fan quietly connected the Spirit Beast link, preparing to give Que San a command.
An idea suddenly popped into his head: "If the Carmenians can cause trouble, can't I do the same?"
Yang Fan turned his head to look into the distance: "The research vessel dispatched by the Carmenia Federation and Southern Cross Alliance seems to still be anchored on the sea."
The so-called "research vessel" is the joint investigation team organized by the White Men, on a scientific research ship.
Initially, these people, under the guise of scientific research, intended to target the Celestial Mountain, trying to snatch food from the mouth of Great Xia.
However, for various reasons, the joint investigation team couldn't enter Shapudian.
But these people didn't leave either.
Like a piece of stubborn glue, they linger near an island fifty kilometers from Shapudian.
Yang Fan pondered for a while, and immediately made a decision: "Let's do it."
*
Half an hour later.
An armored brigade belonging to the Great Xia Army rumbled towards the location of the Illusory Ice Lake.
The mission of this unit is to seal off the area where the Ice Lake is.
And clear the surrounding monsters to ensure smooth transportation routes.
Before long.
More than a hundred tanks split in two.
Half continued heading towards the Ice Lake area, while the other half spread out to start clearing monsters.
The First Ghost Disciple, Zhuang Jun, with a helmet on, poked his head out from inside a tank.
He curiously observed the icy, snowy environment around him, clicking his tongue in wonder.
This guy was originally a college student, previously studying at Minghua University.
Later, he received orders to fly from Minghua University to Shapudian, unexpectedly becoming the First Ghost Disciple.
Zhuang Jun also participated in the Yu Gong Plan, and he became so content and fascinated in the army that he didn't even want to return to school.
Because the outside world was so fascinating, by comparison, school life seemed overly monotonous.
After all, where at school could you casually fire guns and where could you ride the latest Northeast Tiger Tank of the Great Xia Army?
"Lieutenant Zhuang, the intelligence says there might be Yeti appearing in this snowfield, have you discovered anything?"
The captain's voice came through his helmet.
Zhuang Jun shook his head: "Not yet."
The captain "oh"ed: "Then you keep your eyes peeled; whether our crew can gain any merits tonight depends entirely on your performance now!
"If our achievements rank first in the entire brigade, when we get back, I'll treat you to hotpot!"
Zhuang Jun replied confidently: "No problem, leave it to me!"
Since receiving instruction from Mr. Ghost, with a mysterious "light" in his mind, he found his perception became incredibly sharp.
If there are any mutant creatures nearby, just one look and he would have an inexplicable sense.
Although his superpower is only in the domain of hearing and not strong in combat power, this ability alone made him very popular in the army.
After a while.
The captain asked a question with a chuckle: "Lieutenant Zhuang, do you have a girlfriend?"
Zhuang Jun felt his mouth twitch, but still answered honestly, "No."
Recently, quite a few people, if not ten then at least eight, had tried to introduce him to a girlfriend.
Zhuang Jun deeply realized how effective Mr. Ghost's reputation truly was.
The commander laughed again, "I have a cousin who's very beautiful, how about I introduce you to her?"
Zhuang Jun, being still a college student, was quite shy and felt too embarrassed to refuse, "Alright."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly sensed something was off and instinctively turned to look to the right side of the road.
His intuition told him—there was something there.
Zhuang Jun said without hesitation, "Commander, head to the right."
"Okay!"
The Northeast Tiger Tank immediately changed direction, speeding towards the target area.
A few seconds later.
Zhuang Jun sensed it again and hurriedly shouted, "That thing is coming!"
The commander decisively shouted, "Prepare the machine gun!"
The visibility was too low now.
And since the Yeti was a small target, they couldn't use the 125mm main gun, so the machine gun was actually the most suitable weapon.
Quickly.
A mass of white appeared from the darkness, rushing madly towards the tank.
Zhuang Jun's eyes glinted, and he shouted, "It's a Yeti, looks like a leopard."
Yang Fan had already informed the military about the nature of the Yeti, so Zhuang Jun knew that the Yeti was formed from a special soul.
The commander yelled, "Shoot it!"
"Bang! Bang!"
The tank's machine gun unleashed a fierce metal storm.
The Yeti was hit by a rain of bullets, riddled with holes all over, and its speed immediately dropped significantly.
It instinctively sensed the danger, turned and tried to escape, while desperately trying to absorb the snow to repair its body.
The commander shouted again, "Ram it!"
Against a monster like the Yeti, a tank weighing dozens of tons was a weapon in itself.
The Northeast Tiger Tank thundered forward, first knocking down the Yeti, and then the tracks rolled over it.
Zhuang Jun sensed for a moment and shouted, "The Yeti is dead!"
The commander was very pleased, "We're the first crew in the brigade to make a kill."
He added a compliment, "Lieutenant Zhuang, you're the best!"
Zhuang Jun just smiled and didn't say anything.
The commander had a lot to say, "I think the Yeti isn't that formidable!"
The other crew members chimed in.
"I think so too."
"It really was pretty weak."
Zhuang Jun frowned slightly and said, "Everyone, Mr. Ghost warned us to be careful of the Yeti, there must be a reason when a master says so, we better not underestimate them."
He knew, as long as he invoked the master's name, it would be infallible.
Sure enough.
The commander, easily convinced, said, "Lieutenant Zhuang is right, you all better not underestimate them, damn it."
Ten minutes later.
Zhuang Jun's warning became reality.
The tank encountered another Yeti.
The commander was quite curious, so he stuck his head out from the top of the tank, wanting to see what a Yeti looked like with his own eyes.
Suddenly, Zhuang Jun felt an ominous premonition in his heart, as if danger was approaching.
This was the first time he had such a feeling.
Zhuang Jun quickly shouted, "Retract your head!"
As the First Ghost Disciple, his status was quite special, so his words were naturally taken seriously.
The commander paused for a moment, then quickly retracted his head.
The next moment.
"Bang!"
The hatch on the top of the tank made a heavy muffled sound.
A lot of crushed ice fell down, covering the commander's head and face.
A minute later.
The battle was over.
The Yeti had been crushed to bits.
Only then did the commander have time to come out and inspect the state of the hatch.
After just one glance, his face changed, and he felt a strong sense of lingering fear.
A dent was clearly visible on the surface of the metal hatch.
And the position of the dent was exactly in line with where his face had been.
One could imagine, if he hadn't retracted his head, his head might have turned into a smashed watermelon.
The commander looked at Lieutenant Zhuang with gratitude, "Lieutenant Zhuang, you saved my life just now."
Zhuang Jun reminded again, "Be careful when you encounter Yetis in the future, don't underestimate them."
The commander nodded repeatedly, "I won't, never again."
He sighed, "No wonder Mr. Ghost warned us to be careful of the Yetis."
The commander ordered, "From now on, except for Lieutenant Zhuang, everyone else should keep their heads down and not expose themselves outside the tank."
"Yes!"
"Understood!"
Outwardly, Zhuang Jun remained composed, but inside he was very pleased.
He had realized that his ability had most likely improved again, hence the premonition of danger he had just felt.
Zhuang Jun closed his eyes and immediately "saw" a beam of "light" in his mind.
Compared to before, this beam of "light" was noticeably brighter.
Zhuang Jun opened his eyes and silently thought, "Thank you, Mr. Ghost!"
He knew Mr. Ghost was powerful, but facts continuously showed him that Mr. Ghost was even more formidable than he imagined.
