Kongming Academy’s sports field illuminated as the Transmission Array activated, and Yang Xiao and others appeared. Four Snow Wolves were thrown out and the cheers erupted from Dai Yun and others guarding nearby.
Yang Xiao handed two pieces of Snow Wolf Armor to Dai Yun:
"Put on one, and give the other one to soone else. Take these four Snow Wolves to the kiln cave."
Dai Yun, overjoyed, quickly donned the Snow Wolf Armor and instantly felt much warr.
Huang Wen and others rushed over upon seeing Yang Xiao erge from the Transmission Array.
Zhao Gang, Long Yongjun, and the rest, exhilarated from the fight, said:
"Boss, that was too fast, not satisfying at all. We still have ti today, why not go catch a few more Snow Wolves?"
The others agreed, and Yang Xiao laughed:
"Alright, since that’s the case, let’s have another go, sa rules as before, and be safe."
Thus, everyone re-entered the Transmission Array. Yang Xiao pressed the button for Xianan University’s light ring, and with a flash of light from the array, everyone vanished and reappeared at the Transmission Array of Xianan University.
Xia Luo and the others watched near the Transmission Array for a while, noticed nothing unusual, muttered a few words, and then turned to leave, as the place was too cold to stay for long.
Near the Transmission Array, about a dozen Snow Wolves continuously howled but couldn’t locate the traces of Yang Xiao and the others.
With a buzzing sound, the Transmission Array lit up brightly, and Yang Xiao’s group reappeared.
After another rapid, stormy burst of attacks, Yang Xiao and his group killed three more Snow Wolves within a minute, pulled them into the Transmission Array, pressed the button, and disappeared again.
This ti, when Xia Luo and the others heard the sounds of the fight, they turned and ca over in ti while being close enough to see clearly.
"It really was Yang Xiao and the others."
"What are they doing? They co out and then leave again?"
"Could they be possessed? Acting like lunatics?"
"Or is the Transmission Array broken? They can’t leave the array, so they just shuttle back and forth?"
...
Xia Luo and the others made various guesses but couldn’t find an answer. After waiting for half an hour and seeing no return of Yang Xiao and his group, they quit waiting.
Back at the Academy, when Yang Xiao returned, he handed two pieces of Snow Wolf Armor to Dai Yun, delighting everyone around.
As night fell, everyone returned to the kiln cave, where dinner was ready, featuring three Snow Wolves stewed. Everyone expressed their thoughts during the al.
"Shouldn’t we thank the Snow Wolves? They’ve traveled all this way to deliver us at?"
"And brought us clothes against the cold too."
"Haha..."
Yang Xiao took a few bites of the at, feeling like sothing was missing. Huang Wen smiled and said:
"Are you missing the taste of chili?"
Yang Xiao nodded repeatedly.
"We’re out of chili. There were just a few bags of chili powder left, and with over a thousand people eating, it ran out quickly,"
Xiao Zhe comnted.
"It’s all ice and snow now, probably hard to find any spices anywhere."
"I know a place that definitely has a lot of spices, and in abundance,"
Qin Yu suddenly interjected.
Everyone stared at Qin Yu:
"Where?"
"The city area? Think about it, we Kongming Academy are in the suburbs, surrounded only by a few small shops, not a single large supermarket, but the city area is different. There are hundreds of large departnt stores and countless small shops. These spices are bottled and sealed, they won’t spoil for years."
Upon hearing this, everyone scoffed and shook their heads.
Huang Wen teased:
"Qin Yu, how about we send you to the city area tomorrow afternoon to get so chili sauce?"
The group burst into laughter.
Qin Yu also smiled:
"How would I manage that? Say, is that Giant Snake that blocked the Kongming Bridge still there?"
"In such cold weather, that Giant Snake has probably run off by now. However, the outside is more dangerous than before, with mutated Snow Wolves everywhere. Without a Transmission Array, even a group of a hundred wouldn’t dare to venture outside casually,"
Deng Xiao remarked.
After dinner, Xiao Zhe arranged for people to close the door to guard against a surprise attack from the Snow Wolves.
Yang Xiao decided to hold a group eting to discuss the next steps and align everyone’s thoughts.
Huang Wen lit three candles inside the kiln cave, placing one every thirty ters.
Yang Xiao chuckled:
"Huang Wen, why waste the candles?"
Huang Wen giggled and said:
"To prevent so people from talking nonsense later."
The crowd lightly laughed.
Yang Xiao chuckled twice and scratched his head.
"The heavy snow has stopped for a few days now, leaving a thick layer of snow that’s begun to harden. We haven’t seen the sun, and even if we did, such thick snow won’t lt in a day or two. Do you rember pre-apocalyptic Antarctica? Even with sunshine, the Antarctic icebergs didn’t lt!"
