Chapter 65: Thousand Islands Snow Mountain
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Lin Shuang and Qian Shanxue reached an agreement, he jumped into the river and swam towards the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain. As he swam, he called out to Qian Shanxue on the shore.
“Let’s go. The river isn’t wide. It won’t take long to swim across.”
On the shore, Qian Shanxue looked at Lin Shuang, who had jumped into the river, and instantly felt that her warning to Lin Shuang just now was useless. She had clearly told him that if he swam to the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain, the extremely cold temperature could directly freeze him.
Despite those warnings, Lin Shuang still wanted to swim over. Wasn’t he purely trying to cut the line to see the King of Hell? However, she had already reached an agreement with Lin Shuang. Although Qian Shanxue complained crazily in her heart, her movements were not slow.
Under Lin Shuang’s dumbfounded gaze, Qian Shanxue actually took out a Purple-grade wooden boat from her backpack.
“How do you own a small boat?” Lin Shuang had never expected Qian Shanxue to be able to take out a wooden boat.
It was still the early stages of the game. Although the freedom was very high, most of the map was still dominated by the continent. Even if there was a river, it would not be too wide. With his physical fitness after Level 10, he could basically swim over.
Therefore, generally speaking, no one would have equipment like a boat, let alone a Purple Quality wooden boat that Qian Shanxue had.
Faced with Lin Shuang’s confusion, Qian Shanxue rolled her eyes at him. “This boat is the reward for completing the hidden mission. Although it’s Purple-grade, other than being faster and stronger than other wooden boats, there’s nothing special about it. If you don’t come up soon, I’ll leave first. I’ll wait for you on the other side to slowly swim over.”
As soon as Qian Shanxue finished speaking, Lin Shuang grabbed the edge of the boat and quickly jumped onto it. He probably would not be frozen even if he swam to the other side with his powerful physique, at most, he would be bare-chested in the snow. It would not be fatal. When the time came, he would hurry up and get a fire seed to roast for a while.
But now that he had Qian Shanxue’s boat, if he still swam over, wouldn’t he be even more stupid than a fool?
After Lin Shuang boarded the boat, Qian Shanxue took out two oars and threw them to him so that he could row the boat himself.
Lin Shuang looked at the oars in his hand and asked Qian Shanxue with a blank expression. “Do I row alone?”
Looking at Lin Shuang’s confused expression, Qian Shanxue had a matter-of-fact expression. “If I didn’t have a boat, you would have swam to the other side! We’re working together now. I took out the boat. Isn’t it only right for you to contribute?!”
After hearing Qian Shanxue’s words, Lin Shuang also felt that it made sense. He didn’t say anything else and picked up the paddle to row to the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain.
It was strange. Even though the temperature had reached -10 degrees Celsius before they reached the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain, the river surrounding the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain did not show any signs of freezing.
The temperature of the river had reached about zero degrees. It did not look like a river that surrounded an extremely cold place all year round.
Under the speed of the Purple-grade boat, the two of them quickly reached the other side of the river and climbed up the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain that was whistling with a bone-chilling wind. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m
The uncle only said that there were energy crystals in the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain, but he did not specify the exact location. Therefore, Lin Shuang didn’t know where to find the energy crystals needed for the mission.
Qian Shanxue looked at Lin Shuang, who had been leading her around without a clear destination three hours after coming ashore. Finally, she couldn’t help but call out to Lin Shuang, who was thinking about where to find the energy crystals. “Hey, where are we going! We’ve already walked this path twice!”
Lin Shuang, whose thoughts had been interrupted by Qian Shanxue’s words, turned around and looked at Qian Shanxue in confusion. “Did you call me?”
Qian Shanxue looked at the confused Lin Shuang who didn’t hear her question at all. Her cheeks, which were red from the cold, turned black at a visible speed, and she emitted a terrifying aura. “I just asked where we’re going! We’ve been down this road twice!”
Looking at Qian Shanxue, who was about to go berserk, Lin Shuang instantly woke up. Although with his combat strength, he was not afraid of Qian Shanxue, Lin Shuang’s intuition told him that he had to be careful what he said at this moment. Otherwise, something terrifying would happen. “The mission I’m doing needs to find the energy crystals of the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain. Do you know where it is?”
Lin Shuang’s words instantly darkened Qian Shanxue’s face. “Are you stupid?! The energy crystal of the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain is in the ice mine in the south of the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain. You don’t even know why you’re here!”
Qian Shanxue’s words instantly made Lin Shuang explode on the spot. When he came here in his previous life, he had teamed up with someone to fight the Boss. He had heard that the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain had energy crystals. But he did not pay much attention to the location of the energy crystal. In addition, after accepting the mission, he came here directly.
Therefore, he really did not know where the energy crystal was. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
“This is my first time in the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain, so I don’t know the exact situation. I’m sorry.”
Qian Shanxue looked at the apologetic Lin Shuang. After a few changes, her expression finally turned into a helpless expression. “Not everyone knows the location of the energy crystal of the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain. But six out of ten people who have come to the Thousand Islands Snow Mountain know where the energy crystal is. Are you really not prepared every time you come out to do a mission?”
Qian Shanxue’s words instantly made Lin Shuang feel extremely awkward. The missions he had done after his rebirth seemed to be unprepared. Other than preparing some recovery potions, completing the mission either relied on recklessness or top-notch luck. Indeed, he did not do anything else. He did not prepare for any missions or gather information about missions.
Qian Shanxue looked at the embarrassed Lin Shuang and instantly understood that Lin Shuang was really unprepared when he completed the mission. She immediately felt extremely depressed. Didn’t she carefully go through thousands of difficulties and dangers to complete the mission every time? Why was it that completing the mission was like eating and drinking to Lin Shuang? “How did you survive until now and increase your level and combat strength to this extent? Are you the legendary lucky player? A representative of luck over hard work?”
Lin Shuang did not respond to Qian Shanxue’s confusion. He only touched the tip of his nose awkwardly. “Um, do you know the way to the Ice Mine?”
Looking at Lin Shuang, who was avoiding talking, Qian Shanxue did not care too much, although she still felt very unbalanced. However, everyone had their own opportunities. If Lin Shuang didn’t say it, she couldn’t force him. “I know the way to the Ice Mine. Come with me.” With that, she turned around and walked south.
Lin Shuang looked at Qian Shanxue’s depressed expression. Although he felt embarrassed, there was no way to change his talent. Even if he said it, Qian Shanxue would probably be even more depressed. It was better for him not to say it.
