By this time, Song Jian had arrived at a Frost Land. The surrounding area was all glistening ice walls, clusters of icicles jutted out from the walls like spears, looking as if a bunch of hedgehogs were clinging to the walls.

The highest points of the open space were gleaming with huge ice crystals. They were like uncarved diamonds, reflecting dazzling light.

The snow under his feet had thickened. Song Jian was stepping forward slowly, one foot deep into the snow then another close to the surface. It was easy to step into a pit hidden in the snow. Here, if one didn’t have a high agility stat and couldn’t control their body well, they would struggle to fight. The terrain alone could hinder the function of the tank class members by more than 10%.

Song Jian looked up and saw groups of Level 16 advanced-quality monsters, wandering not too far from the Frost Land. Although advanced-quality monsters were more powerful than the normal ones, they were not as formidable as the Elite Level Bosses – their powers in between the two.

These Level 16 advanced-quality monsters looked like half-snake creatures, dragging a long tail covered with green scales from the waist down.

From the waist up, they had a humanoid appearance. However, they had four arms and each hand was armed with a long knife, crafting a ferocious look.

Some of the monsters were holding two bows with their four arms, draped in crude leather armor, patrolling like guards, constantly roaming.

“LV16 Frost Naga Warrior (Advanced), Vitality Points: 2500/2500, Characteristics: Frost Enhancement, Hardy Body, Skills: Quick Slash”

“LV16 Frost Naga Bowmen (Advanced), Vitality Points: 2000/2000, Characteristics: Frost Enhancement, Deep Wounds, Skills: Rapid-Fire Arrows”

After inspecting the monster’s attributes, Song Jian looked towards the core central area. These advanced-quality monsters were mere minions. The deep roar he heard earlier must have come from the boss. There was an Elite Level Boss here.

However, after scrutinizing for quite some time, Song Jian couldn’t spot any irregular BOSS. Yet, at the center of Frost Land, he saw an over three-metre-high ice sculpture. This sculpture too, resembled a Frost Naga, except it had six arms, two of which were holding long knives, one pulling a bow and arrow, and a shield was held by the two remaining hands.

There were colourfully glistening lights all around the Frost Land. The Frost Nagas didn’t seem to have noticed Song Jian’s presence. They were swishing their long tails, leaving white trails on the ground as they roamed, frolicking and playing lightly with each other.

However, no matter their movement, they maintained some distance from the ice sculpture in the center, as though they were afraid of it.

“Could that sculpture be the ultimate boss here?” Song Jian wondered in his mind.

To approach the ice sculpture, Song Jian had to destroy all the advanced-level monsters around it first. Given the dense monsters that were in close proximity, trying to lure them one by one seemed to be quite a tough job.

“Better draw them out step by step and deal with them slowly,” Song Jian murmured. He finally chose a location with fewer monsters and snuck forward slowly.

The advanced-level monsters had a vast warning range. Once Song Jian approached within ten meters of them, they would surely be alerted and would rush towards him, rapidly launching attacks. Therefore, luring these monsters out would require some skill.

Song Jian trod carefully on the ice and snow. Every step made a light “crack” sound, which made him feel cautious.

Soon, a Frost Naga near the edge of the ice wall spotted Song Jian. It shrieked sharply and pounced towards him brandishing its long knife.

Song Jian, who had initially prepared to draw the monsters with his handheld crossbow, paused for a moment, immediately put away his crossbow, tightened his grip on the Crimson Fire Heart Ape Sword and retreated slowly.

At that moment, perhaps due to the sharp shriek of the Frost Naga earlier, a dozen other Frost Nagas were attracted and quickly moved towards Song Jian.

“Come on, come on!” Instead of panic, Song Jian showed a slight smile, turned around and ran towards the ice wall.

The Frost Nagas were extremely fast. By the time Song Jian used the nearby ice pillars to climb up the ice wall, a Frost Naga had already chased behind him.

Whizz whizz!

A volley of cold-lighted arrows directed towards Song Jian flew in the air. Song Jian immediately took cover behind a thick ice pillar. All the arrows hit on the ice pillar and made continuous metallic collision sounds.

Looking down, Song Jian saw three or four were Frost Naga archers, and the rest were sword-wielding warriors. The Frost Naga archers stood under the ice wall continuously shooting arrows, while the other warriors traced Song Jian’s climbing route and chased after him.

Seeing the Frost Naga warriors close in on him, Song Jian swung his long sword and chopped off an icicle over two meters long. The icicle rolled off and crashed onto the Frost Naga warriors that were pursuing him, causing the archers down below to dodge swiftly.

Looking at the tumbling Frost Nagas below, Song Jian showed a slight smile. He pulled out a Self-destructing Robot Type 2 from his bag and threw it down.

The palm-sized robot expanded rapidly as it fell. By the time it touched the ground, it had transformed into a robot over one meter tall.

The self-destructing robot gave off a series of urgent cries as soon as it made contact with the ground, with its eyes constantly flashing red lights;

Boom-

A loud explosion followed. The Self-destructing Robot exploded, creating a large pit in the ground. All the surrounding Frost Nagas groaned in pain.

Ice shards scattered about and the frigid air was aggressive. Dozens of Frost Nagas growled furiously at Song Jian. Their blood-red eyes showcased their locked resentment towards him, looking as though they wouldn’t rest till he was dead.

Seeing a quarter of the Frost Nagas’ vitality points decrease instantly, Song Jian gave a slight smile and threw another two Self-destructing Robots.

After a series of explosions, dozens of Nagas were marred, full of wounds and dripping red. Their vitality points were reduced to less than five hundred.

Looking down, Song Jian smirked, jumped off the towering Ice Rock, slashing his sword left and right at the Frost Nagas with dwindled vitality. A series of skills were unleashed; within a minute, dozens of Frost Nagas were reduced to cold carcasses, dropping a pile of items.
