At this ti, Zong Shen was already more than ten kiloters away from the territory.
After obtaining the second Frosty Winter Treasure Chest in the afternoon, he temporarily returned to the territory.
He personally taught Luna and Wenresa how to drive the [Magic Energy Drilling Machine] and recruited Gun and Shield Warrior Katis and several Dragon-kin Rangers to ride the Burden-Bearer cha and follow along.
They temporarily ford a second treasure-hunting team to go out together and search for the Small Ice Mountains that contain the Frosty Winter Treasure Chests.
It did not matter how high the second group's efficiency was, even if they could only clear one Small Ice Mountain per hour, it would be very worthwhile.
Now it was already past seven in the evening, and Zong Shen had obtained a total of nine Frosty Winter Treasure Chests.
In addition, he had also killed about 63 various types of Icefield Beasts.
The Frosty Winter Treasure Chests were really too scattered, and actually, only a few had fallen around the territory.
On average, there would be one Frosty Winter Treasure Chest appearing per 40 square kiloters of land.
The more they progressed, the longer the intervals between treks beca, and the corresponding acquisition efficiency also beca lower.
From the start to now, Zong Shen had only acquired nine chests, eight of which had not been opened and had all been stored in his Storage Grid.
As for how many chests Luna and Wenresa had obtained, Zong Shen was temporarily unaware.
He used the territory as a center and broadly divided the four directions into east and west, with each group responsible for one direction.
Each direction was divided into three small regions: due east, northeast, southeast, due west, northwest, and southwest.
According to the schedule and plan, Zong Shen planned to persist until 1:00 am before stopping.
For this, he also consulted the strategies and received a positive answer.
This situation was completely different from previous snowstorm expeditions.
The main force in searching for Frosty Winter Treasure Chests and breaking the Small Ice Mountains was the [Magic Energy Drilling Machine].
The combat tasks were not difficult, as they only needed to deal with varying quantities of Captain Level Icefield Beasts.
It is worth ntioning that, on the road of exploring treasure chests, Zong Shen also encountered a Frosty Snow Beast wandering around aimlessly and casually killed it, gaining an additional four thousand Experience Value, 1000 Points, and 125 Extraction Value.
Now, Zong Shen had arranged the drilling machine and Burden-Bearer cha to create a simple camp and led everyone in temporary rest and feeding.
Three Heat Balls simultaneously emitted a warming force field, which, when stacked together, could counteract temperature differences, and currently, there were no strong winds or snowstorms, so it was the so-called "dry cold" state.
Add to this that the whole afternoon was a warm and sunny day, so everyone's combat load was minimal, and therefore their physical strength was not severely depleted or exhausted.
The cold resistance conditions in this environnt were significantly better than the previous night.
They only needed to return to the territory before the super cold icy rain ca.
Zong Shen leaned against the drilling machine while Doris used the wood she carried in her Storage Grid to make a bonfire.
The warriors simply placed the jerky beside the fire to roast, loosening its fibers slightly to make it easier to chew after putting it in their mouths, and then began to feast heartily.
When it cos to eating, the warriors under Zong Shen's command are not very fussy, especially during expeditions. In this world, there is no such thing as a variety of self-heating rations, nor are there canned foods like instant noodles with diverse seasonings.
While Frost Magic can ensure the freshness of food, in terms of military distribution standards, it's not feasible to popularize portable Frost Magic storage containers.
Military rations must be cheap, durable, easy to make, and high in heat and energy.
Only then could it be standardized as a military ration for distribution across the army.
Thus, high-end magic guide products and technologies are naturally excluded.
In this regard, there are many areas worth exploring.
Now, Zong Shen likes to use Earth as a reference, comparing it with the Endless Continent to find industries that can be expanded.
Take military rations, for example; canned food is actually a good direction.
With this world's Magic Guide Technology, food can undergo high temperature and high pressure processing.
tal cans and aluminum cans are not difficult to make, although it seems like this world doesn't have the tal "aluminum," they do have tal, and there's plenty of it.
Even ordinary rocks can have a certain probability of yielding minerals in the lords' territories.
This obviously violates Earth's geological knowledge, and it's unclear if it's a feature of this world or the handiwork of the Lord System.
Therefore, "iron" resources are not scarce. Just within the days since the lords descended, a large amount of iron resources have been mined.
Hence, developing canned food is entirely feasible, and the difficulty is not very high.
Once Master Mars builds a large pasture in the territory, Zong Shen will try to make canned food as another deep processing thod for beef and lamb.
Of course, as a lord descended from Earth, finding the advantages and differences between the two worlds isn't too difficult.
But specific implentation requires sufficient capability, and for everyone now, it's just the beginning.
After a brief rest on the spot, Zong Shen and his team set off once again.
In his view, the Golden Circle Marked Small Ice Mountains beca increasingly sparse, and the distances continued to grow.
Over an entire afternoon, due to the appearance of sunny periods, the improved weather made many lords beco active, with blue and white ice mountains standing out prominently against the pale snowy ground.
In fact, these Small Ice Mountains sotis reflect dazzling light in the sunlight, so as long as there are Small Ice Mountains near the territory, they can almost imdiately be discovered.
Whenever soone was found to have already raced to a Small Ice Mountain, Zong Shen would decisively choose to give it up.
Spending ti tangled there was not as worthwhile as hurrying on their way.
His biggest advantage is possessing the [Magic Energy Drilling Machine], which can quickly penetrate the ice mountains.
Then, with his formidable personal strength, he could swiftly kill the Captain Level monsters guarding the Frosty Winter Treasure Chests. It was precisely because of this that he managed to reap treasure chests so quickly.
...
Ti passed quickly.
When Zong Shen erged from a Small Ice Mountain 34 kiloters from the territory.
It was already 0:23 am, and he decided to finish up.
To acquire Frosty Winter Treasure Chests, he had been active outside for over eleven hours.
Witnessing the weather shift from clear and warm to sunset and cold, until now, the surrounding temperature had dropped to minus 50°C.
Even without wind and snow, this temperature was deadly enough.
Every breath of air was so cold that it pierced the trachea and lungs, with the exhaled breaths instantly turning into frosty flowers, making it unimaginable that even breathing could beco difficult.
No one dared to urinate on the spot. Without constructing a relatively warm temporary camp, nobody dared to expose themselves.
Many had no concept of minus 50°C, a temperature only reached in Earth's polar regions during extre weather and seasons.
According to Earth's teorological [Coldness Tier Table], temperatures below minus 39.9°C already constitute Tier I extre cold.
In such conditions, hard steel begins to turn brittle, and throwing a ladle of boiling water into the air above you would quickly turn into ice flowers.
Under the surrounding night's veil, white mist drifted like night ghosts.
Everyone's exposed skin felt prickly, and they wrapped their heads and faces with sheepskin fur.
Fortunately, there was no wind and snow for now, otherwise even Zong Shen, without further preparations, would have frozen to death outside.
Doris's "Fla" skill was once again weakened, becoming only as thick as a child's arm.
The cold environnt made Fire Elents scarce. The sa spell model could not gather more Fla Elents.
Not only was the Fire Elent heavily affected, but the Water Elent would also change.
Magic Water Arrows fired would freeze into ice during flight.
Frost Magic here would be significantly enhanced.
This is the power of low temperature, far exceeding human tolerance!
Everyone must submit to the majesty of nature.
