Along the way, their team had already eliminated many scouts along the way. With Inès's Originium skill of observing shadows, they had a full-scale perspective, and the enemy's scouts' traces could not escape their eyes, and they were eventually eliminated one by one.

About an hour later, Wang Chong estimated the distance and said to one of the crossbowmen, "This should be about the same. You stay here. Once you see Tallulah and the others, notify me and then begin to retreat. The rest of you, report back to me at certain distances along the way so I can confirm Tallulah's distance from here and make an estimate."

"Yes!" Those people responded in succession.

"Ines, come back with me. If some of the guys in the plan are still alive, you may need to have a tough battle with W, so be prepared. You don't have to hold on too long, because Tallulah and the others will arrive just in time." Wang Chong turned to look at Ines and said.

Chapter 47 Snow Burial

Inside the Ursus camp, the captain was resting. He had received word from the army several hours earlier that the fish were already charging toward the river, prompting him to quickly prepare himself.

Therefore, the captain ordered most of the men to take turns resting at night, so that they could be fully refreshed and ready for the battle tonight. But at this moment, the messenger's voice rang out outside the tent: "Report! Captain! We have the latest intelligence on the guerrillas!"

"Come in." The captain said slowly.

"Yes!" The messenger entered and said, "Sir! According to the information sent by the messenger along the river, the guerrilla raft is only about half an hour away from us."

"Oh?" The captain was delighted upon hearing the news. "Looks like I've finally caught the big fish. Go, tell everyone to assemble and bring their weapons, especially the siege equipment. Then, prepare to leave the camp. Once the dam explodes, launch an attack on that area! As for you, continue to receive messages from the messengers on the riverbank, and don't forget to notify the detonator immediately."

"Yes!" The messenger and the surrounding adjutants immediately retreated and began to assemble the troops.

……

In the middle of the snow-capped mountain, Yangge and Daxiong chanted a spell to the Originium Array they had set up before. Ice and snow began to linger around them, and the light of the Originium Array continued to extend to the upper and lower places, forming a distinct black and red line on the snow-capped mountain.

"Huh...it's a success. All the Originium arrays are connected in series. Next, we just need to wait until we are ready to detonate, and then we can start to cast the final spell. Come on, Big Bear, let's stay away from it, otherwise it will be funny if we get buried too." Yang Ge said.

"This is the first time I've seen that the two of us can take out thousands of people with our Originium skills. Hahahaha, now I'll have more things to brag to my brothers when I go back." Big Bear also laughed happily.

"Keep your voice down." Yang Ge covered the bear's mouth and took it away. The snowy wind was blowing, and a man-made natural disaster was brewing quietly on the snowy mountain.

……

"Okay, got it. Now Tallulah only has about 20 minutes left before she can reach us. You should hurry back and be prepared for a possible fight." After Wang Chong used the power of the black fog to learn the news, he took out another communication transmitter from the black fog. It was labeled 1, and then began to transmit the message: The fish only has 10 minutes left to reach the destination.

"W, get ready, you can start now. Wait for instructions and detonate the first, second, and third bombs on the snow mountain in sequence. After the third bomb explodes, detonate all the remaining bombs, including the one on the dam." Wang Chong began to use the power of the black fog and said to W.

"OK." W's brief answer echoed in the black fog, but Wang Chong knew that W had already taken action with Faust. With Faust's Originium skills, they successfully approached the dam and used his own Originium skills to transform all the bombs detected on it into his own more powerful bombs.

Afterwards, W and Faust left the dam and began to sneak up to the group responsible for detonating the dam, aiming the crossbow at them. Faust also set up his crossbow, selected an opponent, and was ready to fire at any time.

Wang Chong silently estimated the time. After about six minutes, Wang Chong said, "First bomb!"

Black Mist relayed the message to both W and the duo on the snowy mountain. W immediately activated the bomb buried on the top of the mountain, while Yang Ge and Big Bear began to use their Originium skills to activate the Originium magic arrays they had set up.

"Boom——"

Because the sound was too far away from the bottom of the mountain, by the time it reached the foot of the mountain, it was drowned out by the surrounding noise and no one noticed it. But the snowstorm had already begun to fall from the top.

"The second bomb...the third bomb!"

Wang Chong timed the situation perfectly and continued to instruct W to press the button. W naturally followed his instructions and detonated the two bombs, a hint of surprise in her eyes. In fact, the bombs W had used with Originium techniques were essentially imbued with a trace of her perception, allowing her to not only identify those she had set but also to sense changes in the surrounding environment.

The strange thing now is that every time Wang Chong detonates herself, the time is exactly when a huge avalanche just covers her bomb. In this way, each explosion can maximize the scale of the avalanche.

"Could this guy have done anything to my bomb?" W couldn't help but think.

"Now, detonate all the bombs!" Wang Chong shouted immediately.

"Let's blow them all up!" W couldn't help but get excited and triggered all the bombs at once.

"boom!!!"

A violent explosion erupted from the dam, leaving the blasting crew, still awaiting Tallulah's raft, dumbfounded. "No, I haven't even pressed the trigger yet, how come the dam exploded?"

But before they could think for long, an explosion suddenly sounded all around them. Their ears instantly filled with ringing, and their consciousness gradually began to fade into darkness.

"Shhhhh-"

Faust used his crossbow to shoot arrows at the Ursus soldiers who were not taken away by W's wave, and eliminated them all cleanly and neatly.

"Not bad, kid. You have the makings of a mercenary." W glanced at the young man who calmly dealt with his opponent with a hint of admiration. Then, picking up the crossbow in his hand, he said, "Move away. Don't get buried by the snowstorm. There might be some cleanup work to do later."

Faust nodded and started looking for a high ground with W, ready to shoot crossbows at the riverbed at any time.

In the camp, the captain gathered all the troops and waited in the camp. When he heard the sound of the explosion, his brows frowned slightly. It happened a few minutes faster than he expected.

But after careful consideration, he quickly deduced a conclusion and shouted, "It seems those people are quite clever. They guessed we might be setting an ambush here and prepared to dock in advance. It seems the explosion didn't seriously injure them, but they won't be able to escape easily! Everyone, follow me out of camp immediately! We will wipe out these villains who are burning, killing, and looting on the snowy plains!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the Ursus soldiers shouted loudly.

Afterwards, three thousand soldiers marched out of the camp in unison. Even the siege batteries withdrew from the camp, occupying the high ground and aiming at the riverbed below. The captain, commanding the troops, followed them to the bombed-out riverbed.

"...Where are the people?" The soldiers in front were searching for the enemy's traces in the dark. Although they did not bring any lighting tools, they had already adapted to the dark environment and could still see the situation on the riverbed roughly.

But let alone the guerrillas, not even the stranded rafts were visible. You have to know that after the explosion, the entire riverbed was turned into a pile of rocks, making it impossible for the rafts to pass through, and there was no way those people could escape from this side.

"Could it be that they are in the woods? Send a vanguard to search the woods...what's that sound?" Just as the captain was about to order people to go into the woods to search for traces, he suddenly heard an echo like muffled thunder from behind him.

The others also looked behind them in surprise. After all, the rumbling sound was so loud that it almost drowned out all other sounds. But at this moment, a scout running from the camp looked as if he had seen a ghost and shouted loudly: "Snow! Snow!"

"What's snowing?——!!!"

Just as the captain was still wondering what the scout who came running over was saying, he finally saw the source of the loud noise, and his face turned pale in an instant.

It was about ten meters high and instantly swallowed up their camp and rushed towards them.

"It's an avalanche!! Avalanche!! Run away!!"

Obviously, the other soldiers had also seen this scene. I don't know who spoke first, but in an instant, the entire team's morale collapsed. In the face of this natural disaster, they all seemed insignificant. Those people began to flee in a hurry.

But the speed of the snow had already reached its extreme, so how could it let them escape? The next second, the snow swallowed up the scout, and the next second, the snow began to swallow up the soldiers. In the last second, it swallowed up everyone and killed them all.

Chapter 48: Did you miss me? Tallulah

snow mountain

"Fuck...fuck! Yangge, did you see it? Fuck... did you see it?" Big Bear stuttered a little, obviously frightened by the scenery at the foot of the mountain.

"I... of course I saw it! (Ursus swearing)! This time we really did something big! Those avalanches scattered everywhere, under the guidance of our Originium skills, all rushed towards the camp! All of them were buried!" Yang Ge also seemed particularly excited at this moment. He did not expect the scene in front of him.

"Damn it! I heard that people in those cities have a thing called a camera that can be used to take pictures of scenery and people as souvenirs. Such a rare scene should be photographed well and brought back to show my elder sister and brothers." Big Bear couldn't help but say.

"Alright! I know you want to brag, but how can you boast in front of Big Sister with your limited skills? If Big Sister were here this time, she wouldn't even need the help of these snowy mountains. She could freeze those guys directly." Yang Ge patted Big Bear on the back and said, "Alright, hurry up and take our ice picks and get down! The three thousand Ursus soldiers can't all be ordinary soldiers. I'm afraid some of them may not be buried alive in the snow. Let's go down and provide support. Don't let those people be rescued from the snow."

"I know, I know. Don't rush me. Let me watch for a while."

"You can go down and watch too! Hurry up, don't let me kick you!"

……

At the riverbed, W and Faust had both climbed up the tree and discovered that the snow was only about a meter away from them. It was easy to imagine how thick the avalanche was.

"Huh... Fortunately we climbed high enough. If we had been hit a little bit, we would have been buried alive... No one should be able to get out of such deep snow. We would either freeze to death or suffocate in a while." W said unconsciously as he looked at the snow below.

"It's hard to say. Even in a breath-holding environment, some powerful people can use Originium skills. But it's not so easy to melt such thick snow with Originium skills, unless those people use Originium skills together to melt it. Let's climb higher and see if anyone can escape by relying on Originium skills." Faust climbed up and said.

"Maybe we don't need to hold on so stubbornly. My crossbow bullets don't have that strong penetration, but you're different. You'll receive instructions soon." W smiled mysteriously and began to climb higher as well. He muttered, "Tsk... I can't walk on this snow, right? Will I have to jump from one tree to another?"

Faust frowned slightly, not understanding what W had just said. But before he could think for long, the voice of the gentleman he respected rang out in the black mist in his ears.

"Yes... yes. Huh? Can you see my side? Um, keep going... left, then another 20 degrees to the left, 30 degrees of depression, roughly this direction? Got it."

As Faust responded, he finally understood what W had just said. He had never expected Wang Chong to be able to see his perspective. What was even more incredible to Faust was that Wang Chong could clearly identify the Ursus soldiers who might have escaped the snow, allowing him to adjust his angle to attack them.

"call out--"

After gathering his Originium skills, Faust fired his crossbow. Even the shield guards marveled at the power of Faust's arrows. After all, they were arrows that even the future Brilliant Knight Lin Guang could barely catch, so piercing the nearly ten-meter-thick snow was no problem.

"Well done, you hit the target successfully, but it was a little off. It might be because you passed through too much snow and soldiers, so you only hit the guy's shoulder. But you also made him faint, and he won't survive." Faust breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Wang Chong's praise. Fortunately, he had a good grasp of the angle.

"However, converting oral instructions into shooting in this way still has deviations and is too inefficient. Ines and I are already rushing towards you. After we meet up, you can shoot wherever we point." Wang Chong said.

"Yes." Faust agreed quickly.

……

At the river, Tallulah held the oar, silently calculating the time, and waiting for the forest ahead to end so that she could immediately dock.

"Hmm? What's that noise?" Suddenly, Talulah heard a muffled sound like thunder, like flying sand and rocks.

"It's an avalanche... Stop!" A hoarse voice came from behind Tallulah. It was the voice of the Patriot. He also heard the strange muffled sound, and after years of living in the northern ice field, he immediately realized that it was an avalanche.

"Quickly pull ashore and stop the boat! There's an avalanche ahead!" Talulah did not doubt the patriot's judgment. She immediately passed the order to the rear and used the oars to push the riverbed towards the shore.

Soon, Tallulah and the others stopped at the shore and landed on dry land. They waited until the rumbling noise stopped before they dared to continue moving forward. Less than five minutes into their journey, Tallulah noticed the air was getting colder, and some snowflakes blew against her cheeks.

"Sure enough, there was an avalanche ahead... The river is likely blocked." Tallulah said with a somewhat grim expression.

"Could this be the way those guys are trying to intercept us? They're using avalanches to cut off our retreat?" asked a guerrilla member.

"I'm afraid it's more than that... If you think you can use the snow to stop us, you're underestimating our abilities and Tallulah's abilities." Another guerrilla member shook his head and said.

"Let's go ahead. But since the other side has made some moves, we have to start preparing to deal with them. Now everyone, start to be careful of... who is it!" Suddenly, the extremely alert Tallulah heard the sound of leaves rustling on the other side of the river. She immediately drew her sword, and the flame source stone skill had begun to burn. She stared at the bushes vigilantly, ready to launch an attack at any time.

"Don't do it, don't do it! It's me! David!" A guerrilla soldier came out from the bushes. He raised his hands and spoke loudly.

"David? Why are you here? Shouldn't you be staying with the main force?" The other guerrillas obviously recognized their companion and asked hurriedly.

"It's not just me. There are a few more behind us. They'll be here soon. It's just that you're rowing too fast, and they're still running on land. It'll take some time for them to arrive." David said, "In short, we're here to rescue you."

"Rescue?" When Talulah and the guerrillas heard this word, there was a hint of surprise in their eyes. How did the main force of their own integration movement expect that they would take such a road and know that they were here?

"I know you have a lot of questions, and I will explain them clearly on the way. The most urgent thing now is to rush to the location of the avalanche. The avalanche we created may not be able to kill all the Ursus soldiers. Maybe they have already started fighting over there. We have to go over and support them now." David said.

"What did you say? You caused the avalanche? There are still people fighting over there?... Tsk, everyone, follow David and rush forward immediately! Go support our compatriots!" In an instant, Talulah thought of a lot of things based on the information provided by David. Now is not the time to worry about how the other party appeared here. The most important thing now is to quickly support the troops that came to rescue them.

……

About 10 minutes later, Tallulah saw the white scene. What she never expected was that the edge of the snowflakes was as high as two people.

"Shit... didn't they say the snow would be at most 2 meters high? But the border is already three or four meters high, and it looks like it's even higher inside! How are we going to get through? It's all snow! Where are all the people?" David was obviously a little uneasy when he saw the scene in front of him. The snow was much thicker than he had expected.

"No problem, wait until I melt all these snowflakes. Everyone, stand back. I'm going all out." Tallulah drew her sword, and everyone stepped back, putting some distance between them. The air around her began to burn, the blazing flames slowly melting the snow mound before her. With every step she took, the snow melted a little further, turning into water and steam.

Tallulah remained alert, fearing she might encounter some Ursus soldiers who were still alive, and she was always ready to swing her sword.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell from the sky and landed abruptly in front of Tallulah. Tallulah, who was highly alert, swung her sword without hesitation in this sudden emergency situation.

"I say, are you going to swing your sword at my neck like this every time we meet?"

"!! It's you!" Hearing the familiar voice, Tallulah abruptly stopped the sword in her hand. As luck would have it, the sword was once again placed on Wang Chong's neck.

"How is it? Did you miss me, Tallulah?" Wang Chong said with a smile.

Chapter 49: Convincing Tallulah

Tallulah stared at the suddenly appearing man in a trance, unsure of what to do. She couldn't keep the sword poised, nor could she remove it. Fortunately, Wang Chong didn't make things difficult for her. He gently placed his hand on the still-flaming sword and casually pushed it away.

"...Thank you." On the way here, Talulah had already learned about the process of this rescue operation from David. She knew that the other party had accidentally obtained Ursus's communication device and code book, and deciphered the intelligence released by the Fourth Army, which gave them the opportunity to rescue her and others.

"Why thank me? After all, you have a suitor like me. You won't die so easily." Wang Chong smiled faintly, as if he had done something insignificant. Then he raised his hand, and black mist began to spread. He said, "Don't melt this snow anymore. Some of those Ursus soldiers are not yet dead. Let them be buried in the snow. Come on, I will use the black mist to lead you through this snow."

The black mist gathered beneath everyone's feet, then launched them and Wang Chong into the air. Some were clearly stunned by Wang Chong's incredible skill. Wang Chong led everyone soaring above the snow, allowing everyone to see the full extent of the avalanche.

"Is this really a great feat accomplished by just a few people? Or just Daxiong, Yangge and the others?" The guerrilla members couldn't help but say.

"Huh? You reminded me of one thing...the two of them are over there and are almost coming down." After hearing the guerrillas' voices, Wang Chong remembered that there were two guys on the mountain. He sensed the black fog on them and immediately locked their position.

Wang Chong casually sent out two streams of black mist, which flew towards the two small black dots on the snowy mountain. Then, Wang Chong used the black mist to instruct Da Xiong and Yang Ge. Not long after, Da Xiong and Yang Ge were brought to Wang Chong's side by the black mist.

"Fuck, boss, this is awesome. This is the coolest thing I, Daxiong, have ever done in my life. If you hadn't reminded me that we can take advantage of natural disasters, we probably wouldn't have thought of the snow burial method... Yangge, why do you keep patting me? You're coughing so hard, did you catch a cold on the mountain? Hey, you need to practice more." Daxiong looked excited, but Yangge next to him had a strange look on his face, coughing and patting his shoulders constantly.

After hearing what Daxiong said, Yang Ge held his forehead with his hands. What a stupid teammate! Didn't he see the guerrillas and the captain were watching?

"Okay, okay, Big Bear, I know you're the biggest contributor. This time when we go back, I'll let you show off in front of everyone." Seeing this, Tallulah chuckled twice and said with a smile.

"Ah... Talulah, and... and Big Daddy, you are all here." Big Bear only then realized that Talulah and Patriot were looking at him. For a moment, he felt that what he had just said was a bit embarrassing, and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Alright, Big Bear, Yangge, your Originium skills are even more effective than I imagined. I originally estimated the barrier would only be three or four meters thick, but you managed to create a thickness of over ten meters. This will make it much easier for us to completely eliminate those Ursus soldiers. Look, we're here, and everyone else is waiting here."

Wang Chong pointed toward the large tree stump below. Over there, Inès was using her Originium skills to survey the snowy terrain. She then methodically directed Faust and W to fire at the snowy ground. A moment later, Wang Chong, Talulah, and the others flew in front of W and the others.

"Damn it! If you didn't take out this black fog platform earlier, then what's the point of me jumping around on the tree so hard?" W couldn't help but spit when he saw these guys flying in the clouds in front of him, and complained in his heart.

Next, Wang Chong instructed the crossbowmen to continue firing in the direction indicated by Inès, eliminating any Ursus soldiers who might still be active in the snow. Wang Chong himself then rushed back to his previous position to retrieve the other guerrilla crossbowmen.

……

"Ding—Congratulations to the host's troops for successfully using a strategy to bury three thousand Ursus soldiers in the snow, and finally smothering those elite soldiers who might have escaped and survived in the snow. Reward: 3000 faction reputation. Current reputation value: 4700 points."

"You launched the Great Snow Burial, silently killing 3000 soldiers. You are already a little killing god. Therefore, you are awarded 1000 villain points. Your current villain points are: 10200."

Listening to the two system prompts, Wang Chong couldn't help but sigh at the tenacity of the Ursus soldiers. He and Tallulah and the others had been walking for about an hour before those trapped in the snow were completely wiped out. Terra's species, in terms of vitality, were indeed far more resilient than ordinary humans.

Meanwhile, Wang Chong had already arrived in the forest with Tallulah and the others, finding a suitable spot to rest. It was already around two in the morning. Everyone was exhausted after the day, and they had to take a break. Fortunately, they had already taken care of all the patrolling Ursus in the forest.

The 5000 soldiers chasing Talulah and the others were probably helpless against the 10-meter-thick snow, so they didn't have to worry about those people catching up with them for a whole day.
