Judging from the current situation, this measure should be able to play some role.

[Magic Heat Ball] is continuously consuming magic energy, generating a force field that slowly heats up.

This force field does not have a fixed range or shape, it is just a heating zone.

It will also be affected by the external climate, such as the current moderate-scale rain, sleet, and snow.

The range of the heating force field further narrowed, and the speed of heating could barely compete with the passing speed.

The back of the cargo hold was wet, and there were a lot of water drops on the bodies of the soldiers included.

In this case, it is impossible to make the soldiers feel warm.

Thermal balls can only work best in a relatively closed environment.

But as long as it can slow down the loss of heat, it is enough for Zong Shen.

The heat converted from the magic energy will replace part of the body temperature loss of the warriors.

Zong Shen stood there, inspecting the soldiers, and at the same time distributed quivers and bundles of crossbow arrows. This time Zong Shen used sophisticated arrows with an additional 8 points of piercing damage bonus.

The magicians also received small bottles of magic springs. In addition to the cooling, the magic value is what restrains the magic. As long as the magic value is enough, the magicians can continue to output through magic arrows without cooling.

This time he went out to further improve the hunting efficiency, not only to extend the combat time, but also to improve the output efficiency. After this round of hunting, from midnight to tomorrow, the entire land will be covered with thick snow. And covered with sandwich-like ice.

Colby still led the Wolf Riding Team, but there were some changes in the members.

The two wolf cavalry soldiers who lost their wargs were assigned to the fourth team, which was not yet full of members.

He recruited two wolf cavalry who were in good condition and added them in. Even the excellent equipment that Zong Shen had previously equipped for the first team was also replaced.

Only in this way can the first team always maintain the best combat effectiveness.

Zong Shen had no objection to this. The wolf cavalry who lost the warg could no longer take on the mission of hunting. Now Mariel was working hard to collect the construction materials of the [Giant Wolf Lair].

With the current financial resources of the territory, coupled with Mariel's regular inspection of the [Market], it should not take long to gather the materials needed for [Giant Wolf's Lair].

The only thing that is uncertain is the [complete purple soul]. This matter can only be left to Zong Shen to figure out a solution. These winter snow monsters are mass-produced monsters that have been adjusted and reproduced by the Lord system.

They can't explode their souls, so if they want to get souls, they still have to focus on the native monsters in the mainland.

After the construction of the [Giant Wolf Lair] is completed, five third-level giant wolves can be recruited every week.

Colby is now a third-level giant wolf cavalry, and the warg riding under his crotch is a third-level giant wolf.

This kind of giant wolf is taller than the second-level warg, and also has stronger combat power and defensive power. Its fangs are like two pairs of daggers.

The hair all over the body is gray-white, and the roots stand upright, like gray-white spikes.

If you can replace the second-level wolf cavalry with a third-level giant wolf as a riding beast.

Then the combat effectiveness of these warriors can be improved to another level.

Coupled with excellent-level standard equipment, these wolf cavalry can have a combat effectiveness that far exceeds that of second-level soldiers and is slightly lower than that of third-level soldiers.

Dressing up like this can be considered a kind of informal soldier DIY.

After distributing the necessary supplies and reviewing the team.

Zong Shen jumped onto Luna's loader mecha and took over the driver's seat.

Luna quickly mounted the Sentinel Panther and led the Huntress team to stand ready.

The dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warrior Katis also took Vereesa's place.

Everything was ready. Zong Shen waved his hand and took the lead in launching the loader mecha.

This time he drove due west of the territory, targeting the winter snow monster that wandered within a range of 10 to 20 kilometers.

The double set of wheels carried the heavy fuselage and rolled over the ice, crushing the flimsy and fragile melted ice until it exploded.

The wide metal snow shovel in front shoveled up a portion of the snow and melted ice on the road ahead. Because the soil was under the solid ice layer, the snow was relatively clean and generally white.

They pile up higher and higher in front of the snow shovel, making the weight-bearer mecha's driving resistance even greater.

When these accumulations reach a certain height, they will be discharged toward both sides of the snow shovel.

Piles were scattered on the roadside where the loader mechas passed by.

Facing the wind, snow and severe cold, Zong Shen and the others began their third hunt for snow monsters.

All the soldiers did not say a word, but silently clenched their weapons.

At the same time, he wrapped his warm clothes tighter.

This is destined to be another long, boring and tiring journey.

Everyone is mentally prepared for this. They are warriors and they will not give in to the weather.

…

More than five hours later, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

In the evening, a snowstorm arrived as expected.

In the wind and snow, everyone persisted for another two hours.

After installing the [Magic Heat Ball], it can indeed alleviate the coldness of traveling to a certain extent.

But it is still indispensable to take a temporary rest, drink hot water, and eat some high-calorie foods.

Zong Shen still parked the two loader mechas facing the wind, forming a simple windshield.

It blocked part of the cold wind, allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.

This hunting trip was very fruitful, although there were some twists and turns along the way.

But overall, Zong Shen still maintained his consistent steady style.

The wolf cavalry became more cautious, and because the archers had a reserve of sophisticated arrows, their killing efficiency was greatly increased. The time to kill a winter snow monster alone was further reduced, from five minutes to about three minutes.

Every time, about two-thirds of the arrows can be recovered from the body of the winter snow monster.

Zong Shen didn't care about the blank-level arrows before, but the fine-level arrows he was using now were different.

The damage rate of this batch of arrows is much lower than that of whiteboard arrows, and the corresponding recycling value is also greater.

During the previous period, there were tens of thousands of high-quality arrows forged by the territory itself, plus the high-quality arrows that had been redeemed. Among them, the reserve ratio of arrows and crossbow arrows was basically a 50-50 ratio.

During this hunting trip, everyone hunted a total of 34 winter snow monsters.

This led them to pursue the killing more than 20 kilometers southwest of the territory.

Since Zong Shen ran out of points at noon, he now has 45,600 points again.

In other words, Doris and the others also hunted 11 snow monsters.

Many measures and preparations have greatly improved the efficiency of hunting.

But the corresponding consumption is also huge.

Using the thermal ball in such an exposed environment increases its load a lot.

Durability drops one third faster than normal use.

There is also the loss of fine-level arrows, which is also a large sum of money.

At least three thousand arrows and crossbow bolts were left all over the land and could not be recovered in time.

In addition, the physical strength of the soldiers was obviously overdrawn.

They are cold, weak, and sleepy. They urgently need to return to a warm living area, eat a hot dinner, and then lie down on simple bedding for a comfortable sleep.

Human beings with flesh and blood cannot act tirelessly like machines.

These are the costs of hunting. Points are not earned out of thin air. Only the parties involved can appreciate the hard work and effort involved.

Not all lords can do such a rough and direct hunting.

Others' savage beasts, one's own nectar prey.

"Let's rest for another five minutes and then we'll go back."

"Cold is as pervasive as a ghost. They take away body heat and make us feel miserable."

Zong Shen exhaled a breath of hot breath, and he was also hit by the cold.

This made him feel even more sorry for these brave and fearless warriors.

Because of the difference in physical attributes, the pain they actually felt was even worse than the pain Zong Shen felt.

Zong Shen put several heat balls together and created a fairly stable heat zone.

Relieve the pain caused by the loss of body temperature and the invasion of cold.

He could hardly imagine what would happen when the third stage of winter arrived.

The polar low temperature and the unknown extreme weather may not be able to withstand the current configuration of thermal balls and cold-weather clothing.

The snow continues to pile up, making collective travel a luxury.

In other words, their hunting this time is likely to be the last large-scale hunting in the winter challenge.

Zong Shen still needs to think of another way to deal with the winter treasure chest and the guardian monster of the ice field in the third stage.

Sure enough, those winter treasure chests with rewards comparable to silver treasure chests are not so easy to open.

More than an hour before they took their final rest, Doris used the communication crystal to let him report the situation. They had returned to the territory at around seven o'clock in the evening.

Compared to the main team led by Zong Shen, Doris' side was more calm.

Favid, who was traveling with her, used the two days of hunting to summon two two-headed hell dogs again.

The loss of one head in today's battle made Favid feel distressed for a long time. He now has five more heads accompanying him, and together with the mine, there are nine heads in total.

Each two-headed hell dog is his treasure. To summon it, you need to kill 8 leader-level monsters. As for low-level monsters, you need more. Summoning one is actually not easy.

He planned to wait until he had accumulated twelve hell two-headed dogs to form a two-headed dog team, and then try to kill and summon other weaker summons.

You must know that the [Theseus' Killing Staff] in his hand is only a rare item.

But it comes from the mine area and is the staff of one of the spider web monster queens.

Most of the spider web monsters' equipment comes from battlefield ruins and relics deep in the mines.

The dimensional wars of the last era were of great significance, so these ruins often contained weapons and equipment of considerable origin.

This is obviously the case with this killing staff. Its killing charge provides several levels of summoning options. It only takes 100 points to summon a lv20 skeleton warrior, and 300 points can summon a lv25 heavy armored dead. Warrior, you can summon a lv30 flesh puppet by spending 500 points.

As for the two-headed hellhound, 1,000 killing points need to be exhausted at one time.

These summons summoned by the killing value can continue to exist as long as they are not destroyed.

In addition to the most powerful two-headed hellhound, Farvid can also choose to summon some other warriors.

For example, a flesh puppet that requires 500 kill points is a good choice.

The kill value of summoning a hellhound is enough to summon two flesh puppets.

He is prepared to mix and match as much as possible.

Let the army of summoned warriors under your command form a strong combat effectiveness.

It is precisely because of mastering the special equipment [Theseus' Killing Staff] that after Doris was promoted to a hero, Favid could still be on an equal footing with her.

As an early member of the territory, he has always been diligent and hard-working.

Zong Shen didn't give him the [Hero Crest] just because he could take this into consideration.

His status in the territory will not be shaken, and the meaning of this staff even exceeds the "identity" of a hero.

The same is true for Colby. Although he does not have special powerful weapons, he is in charge of the wolf cavalry troops in the territory.

Whether now or in the future, he will be the commander of the wolf cavalry in the territory.

No one is going to take his place at this point.

As a unique light-armored ranger, the Wolf Cavalry will definitely become a vital unit in the territory in the future.

Everything in the territory actually has a balance in Zong Shen's mind.

This is his pressure and his motivation.

Governance and development in reality are not as simple as in the game.

At least with the many conveniences provided by the lord system, Zong Shen still found it difficult.

He simply couldn't calm down. As long as he was in a quiet state, all kinds of development problems and plans would fill his mind and occupy all his thoughts.

This situation became more and more obvious as the territory gradually expanded.

As night falls, everything today will come to an end.

After resting on the spot for more than ten minutes, Zong Shen resolutely led the soldiers on their way home.

It will take at least an hour to return to the territory from here.

With the blizzard raging, points are piling up at a rate of seven to eight centimeters per hour.

The current ground looks a little funny, it is already nearly eighty or ninety centimeters higher than before.

It is divided into three layers: ice layer, melting ice layer, and snow layer.

As the sleet stops, the melting ice begins to transform from fragile to solid.

If you don't wear anti-skid chain spikes, this road will be absolutely slippery and difficult to move, enough to smash your butt.

This is the last chance to return before the snow has accumulated to ridiculous levels.

Everyone endured the cold and returned to the territory in the loader mecha.

They are like lost birds in the snow, trying to return to their nests.
