Doris has always been a battle maniac.
Her performance just now made Zong Shen think that Doris wanted to engage in close combat with the Yeti.
Fortunately, Doris still had so rationality. As a hero with the background of a Mage, she wasn’t foolish enough to face the Frosty Snow Beast in close combat.
After a brief chant, a claw composed entirely of flas ford beside the Snow Beast, directly grabbing the head of the Frosty Snow Beast and pinning it down tightly.
It continuously inflicted burn damage on the beast, its white fur started to scorch and emit a thick burnt sll.
Due to the influence of the frosty climate, this Fla Claw was reduced by a circle compared to before, but it was still enough to restrain the Snow Beast.
The Snow Beast, in its brute force, was pounding the Fla Claw with its Ice Fist, causing sparks to fly while the surface of the Ice Fist lted considerably.
This fla is purely composed of Fire Elent, and this elental state after shaping makes it less affected by physical attacks.
However, the temperature and the lting ice layer began causing the Fla Claw to shrink.
At this ti, the Wolf Cavalry and Gun and Shield Warriors had already reached the Snow Beast.
Even the three temporarily withdrawn Two-headed Hellhounds returned.
Every second, nurous attacks fell upon the Snow Beast.
Under such circumstances, even Snow’s Pet could not save its life.
In the last mont, Favide chanted an Explosive Fireball that completely ended it.
Zong Shen directly gained 1000 points on his point list.
anwhile, Favide received 125 Slaughter Points.
[Your subordinate Fire Mage killed the Frosty Snow Beast LV40, you will gain half of the experience value]
[Acquired Experience Value 4860×½＝2430]
Unlike Burrow Monsters, Frosty Snow Beasts, neither in strength nor experience value, had any discount.
The difficulty of killing a Snow Beast was evident, but the rewards were just as substantial.
Its individual experience value was almost the sa as that of a normal Commander Level wild beast of the sa level.
Originally, Zong Shen intended to deliver the final blow himself. The reason for handing it to Favide was considering one of his Two-headed Dogs was heavily injured in the fight.
So this first kill of a Frosty Snow Beast was given to him as compensation.
Zong Shen put away Evil’s Filth, having this skill as protection, his safety factor increased significantly.
After the Snow Beast was eliminated, its body turned into a puddle of white liquid.
It rged into the surface ice layer, making that part of the ice layer look exceptionally prominent.
Zong Shen lightly leaped from the wall, landing steadily on the ice.
He looked around, the remaining Golden Circle Marks were dispersed in various directions within the territory.
Most of the Snow Beasts, instead of drawing closer during this ti, the distance increased further.
This indicated that the Frosty Snow Beasts did not tend to gather together.
Unlike the Burrow Challenge, one could not carry out large-scale concentrated hunts.
To improve efficiency, he would have to try organizing teams to go out and hunt Snow Beasts.
However, Zong Shen’s combat strategy has always been conservative, and even though the territory could support multi-line operations,
for Zong Shen, dividing forces ant diluting combat strength.
He couldn’t be the backbone, unable to oversee each team simultaneously.
He still rembered in the final stage of the challenge when Wenresa led a team to proactively hunt the scattered Burrow Monster Swarm.
This resulted in many soldier casualties, and one Tier 2 Lightly Armored Swordsman suffered a permanent disability, now only able to assist Marie with logistical work in the territory.
After pondering for a while, Zong Shen decided to proceed with division.
Although each warrior is a treasure, their combat strength varies in different hands.
However, this is a ti to accumulate resources.
If it ans obtaining more points, allowing so casualties is acceptable.
The main reason is that these Snow Beasts do not have the trait of grouping together.
As long as they seize the opportunity, they can be taken down one by one.
During the Frosty Winter Challenge, casualties also require point deductions,
with soldiers being deducted based on tier, 150 points for Tier 1, 300 points for Tier 2, and so on.
To be safe, after evaluating the Snow Beast’s combat power,
Zong Shen only split one small team while he personally led another small team.
They also needed to mobilize more warriors to provide support.
Each squad had to ensure overwhelming nurical superiority,
only then could they minimize the chances of casualties.
As he pondered quietly, Doris and the others had already gathered themselves on the clearing.
When Zong Shen finished thinking and looked up,
the team was lined up neatly before him.
"Doris, Favide, step forward."
Zong Shen first called out two nas.
The two imdiately stepped forward upon hearing this, standing at the forefront of the line.
"You will lead Wolf Rider Squad Two, the newly joined two Necromancers, four Arcane Mages, four Fire Mages, and two Sharp Claw Druids to form the second team."
"The Mages can perform their casting from the cargo hold of the Burden-Bearer cha."
"As long as the Burden-Bearer cha maintains mobility, the skills will form a mobile turret."
Upon hearing this, Doris and Favide bowed and started taking action imdiately.
This division was also sothing Zong Shen had carefully considered.
The inclusion of two Sharp Claw Druids and Wolf Rider Squad Two ensured that at crucial monts, there was a at shield to hold the line.
Ensuring that Mages, with weaker Life Value and defense, would not face the Snow Beasts directly.
The Wolf Riders’ Capture Net could also restrict the Snow Beasts’ movents. Although the effectiveness of the nets was reduced due to the size of these beasts, it was better than having Mages run naked in front of them.
The Sharp Claw Druids could also use Group Roar to add a group buff to themselves and allies, with Life Recovery available at critical tis to provide a health boost.
Level 5 Life Recovery could heal allies by 200 life points.
Though this healing power couldn’t compare to Holy Light Deacon Aisha, it was still enough to bring Mages back to more than half health.
Moreover, it allowed new Mages to enter the team for training, improving teamwork and cooperation, which is also a process of adjustnt.
Favide could also bring his Two-headed Dog into the Hunting Team; though the Two-headed Hellhounds might be reckless, they were still fiercely strong in combat.
After this battle, Favide presumably gathered so experience in dealing with the Snow Beast. Zong Shen believed he would effectively command the Hellhounds, and this was also an excellent opportunity for him to earn Slaughter Points.
Frosty Snow Beasts, being Commander Level monsters, could provide 125 Slaughter Value; killing 8 would reach a total of 1000 points.
To ensure safety, Zong Shen planned to have the divided team employ guerrilla tactics, leveraging the mobility of the Burden-Bearer cha on the ice, allowing Mages to cast at will.
Simply put, it was letting them carry out guerrilla warfare.
Just as the two were about to bow and retire to the living quarters and Magic Hall to gather the personnel,
Zong Shen specifically called out to Doris.
The one he worried about most in the divide was probably Doris.
"Doris..."
Zong Shen’s voice was light, like a whisper in the wind.
As soon as he finished speaking, Doris imdiately stopped her hurried steps.
She turned slightly, bowing slightly to show she was listening.
"Sir, is there anything else you want?"
Since being bestowed with the Heroic Badge by Zong Shen and becoming a Heroic Level asset, her attitude towards Zong Shen had greatly changed, appearing very respectful in front of him.
"I don’t care how enthusiastic you are about combat."
"But please make sure you bring all the warriors back alive."
"Whether it’s you or anyone else in the team."
"Understood?"
Zong Shen removed his battle helt, speaking with a solemn expression.
Doris was taken aback; Zong Shen’s words moved her.
After a few seconds of silence, she nodded firmly.
"I swear by my soul spirit."
"I will ensure everyone’s safe return."
Doris placed the hand holding the magic staff against her chest, solemnly promising.
At that mont, she experienced a feeling she had never had before.
