Chapter 441 - Snow Disaster. A Cold and Gloomy Underground Cave (1/2)

Snow wasn’t only falling in Bei Du. Heavy snow was falling across almost all of northern Hua Xia today.

Also, once the snowfall started, there were no signs of it stopping.

At the start, it was only regular heavy snowfall. It grew heavier and heavier, and in the end, the snow falling from the sky was as large as a man’s palm!

That was terrifying!

In Mercury’s recorded history, there nad never been snowfall with snowflakes the size of a palm.

What did that signify? It didn’t need any explanation. If the heavy snowfall persisted, soon it would become a terrifying snow disaster.

The government office and the military were immediately mobilized. They started arranging people everywhere to start clearing the snow, preventing it from accumulating too thickly, which would lead to the collapse of buildings and cause casualties.

At the same time, people started investigating why there was such a heavy snowfall, hoping to find the underlying reasons.

Obviously, it wasn’t just the change in climate. There should be some external factors affecting it.

Soon, people thought of the demonic gateways that had appeared recently.

It had been over three decades since the arrival of the new age. Exotic beasts had once run rampant on Mercury, and some of the spiritual qi in the beast worlds leaked into this side of the world through the spatial gateways. However, it had never caused any changes in climate on Mercury.

On the other hand, the demonic gateways appeared on Mercury only recently, and such huge changes to the climate had occurred. Who wouldn’t believe that those mysterious black doors were responsible for it?

At the start, everyone thought there would be a peaceful period after the withdrawal of the demonic army across the lands. In the end, they were too naive.

The change in climate was probably due to demonic energy seeping in through the black doors, making winter arrive early this year, and even prompting such terrifyingly heavy snowfall.

For a period of time, dark clouds shrouded the heads and minds of the top brass.

Zhang Che had no idea such huge changes were happening on Mercury.

After he woke up in the morning and had breakfast together with the elemental queen and frisky monkey, they went on to continue their hunt for exotic beasts in this area, transforming into cruel slaughterers. Any and all exotic beasts in his sight that could provide him with soul force points were hunted down.

From mid-tier bronze-quality to high-tier dark gold-quality, countless exotic beasts lost their lives to Zhang Che’s army, and he was quickly accumulating beast cards in his spatial storage.

“Ha ha! When I’m done sweeping all the marked beast worlds and exotic beasts in those areas, the beast cards should be enough to last the Premium House for a long period of time.” Zhang Che couldn’t help but grow excited.

Who else could supply the beast cards for a beast card shop that dealt with only premium goods by themselves? It would be very difficult even for a high-tier beastmaster!

Zhang Che’s mood was even better. He let the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon display his terrifying speed, cutting down every mid-tier or higher exotic beast they came across.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the elemental queen who had separated from him to kill exotic beasts in another direction suddenly came flying back to him.

“Master, I found a place over there.”

-Hmm?- Zhang Che was moved. He quickly asked, “What kind of place? Is there an epic-quality exotic beast there?”

There shouldn’t be any other matter except the appearance of epic-quality exotic beast that would make the elemental queen act so serious and come to inform him.

Of course, it was also possible that she had discovered an extremely powerful exotic beast and came to warn him, in case he accidentally wandered into its territory. That would be very troublesome.

“It’s a large underground tunnel. I can sense a cold aura inside. It’s possible an epic-quality exotic beast is in there.”
