Chapter 631: The Hand Within The Fores (2/2)

Then, Belo started to take off his clothes.

“What are you doing?” Meraly was startled by Belo’s action. She opened her eyes wide in fear.

Belo took a glance at her and answered, “I don’t know what it is, but it’s inside this lake.”

By the time Meraly reacted, Belo had almost completely stripped himself. She quickly turned around, her frozen cheeks burning.

Next, her dulled mind became shocked and worried.

“You...... Are you going to dive in there? Are you going to dive into the lake to find it?” She stuttered.

“Why else would I be stripping?” Belo snorted.

“Don’t touch the water. Your fingers may drop off from the frostbite in this place!”

While the naked Belo was walking towards the lake, he looked over his shoulder. “If there’s an emergency, use your arcane skill to blast the lake.”

“Got it.”

Meraly unconsciously nodded, but her mind was extremely shocked and worried. She stuttered again, “Are you really going in? This temperature......”

“Enough, you just be careful.”

A loud water splashing sound.

Meraly trembled and turned to look.

To her surprise, she saw a large splash on the water and the naked Belo standing at the edge of the lake.

“Ah!” She screamed.

“Belo, why are you...... What are you doing?”

“Throwing some frozen soil. Like this, I can conserve some energy when diving.” Belo explained unhappily.

Splash!

Another loud water splashing sound rang out.

After a few seconds, Meraly turned around to check on Belo.

He was no longer there. The spot he dove into the water returned to calmness as the ripples died down.

Awoo......

In the forest on the opposite side of the lake, wolves were howling.

Meraly shuddered.

“You better come out soon! I will be waiting for you here!”

Loneliness and coldness completely embraced her as she began praying for Belo.

......

Within the forest on the opposite side of the lake.

In a place she could not see, a dozen Forest Snow Wolves were rapidly sprinting.

Just like Belo had said, these wolves were much stronger than those in the Eternal Winter Forest. Their physiques were at least one time larger, each of them looked like a small bull.

In addition to their fluffy fur, these wolves gave off a majestic and ferocious feeling.

During the rapid sprint, clusters of arcane energy spread from their paws and became air cushions.

This not only made their steps soundless, but it also prevented their paws from getting injured by the sharp and hard ice shards on the ground.

The control over arcane energy further proved Belo’s words about these snow wolves being stronger than other snow wolves.

Woo......

The snow wolf running at the front suddenly stopped.

A large hand filled with calluses stretched out from behind a frozen tree.

The moment that hand stretched out, the ferocious snow wolves instantly became tame.

The hand lightly patted the head of the alpha wolf.

The Forest Snow Wolves let out whimpering sounds, as if they were describing what they saw.

Whoosh!

The air suddenly trembled.

The hand retracted, the chilling air becoming violent.

Several...... arcane masters two and half meters tall suddenly appeared, their gazes shining like cold lightning!

......

Meraly focused her gaze on the ice lake.

There were no movements.

Suddenly, she shuddered. It was as if she had felt something. She quickly turned to look at the forest behind her.

However, she did not notice anything strange within the next minute.

I hope it’s just my imagination.

She bit her lips and hoped Belo would come back as soon as possible.

Within the forest behind her, a few hands slowly retracted.

Dozens of ferrets were frozen into ice statues before those hands.

The hands were crystal clear and released no heat, unlike human hands.
