Chapter 306: Snowfield Mammoth
"Vivian?"
"What's wrong?"
After discovering that the other party could hear her telepathic voice, Jia Na also felt relieved.
"I thought in your current state, you couldn't even hear a telepathic voice."
"How is that possible? I just changed my bloodline form. I didn't really turn into a snake."
Hearing Vivian's response, Jia Na shrugged.
After all, during the last Black Magic Defense class when the two of them sparred as apprentices, Vivian, in her bloodline form, had been unable to hear Jia Na's telepathic voice for a time due to falling into a berserk state.
"Come up, I'll carry you."
Looking at the thick ice-blue snake tail constantly swinging beneath Vivian, Jia Na thought for a moment and nodded.
"Ever-changing—"
As the incantation for Elementary Transformation was quickly chanted from Jia Na's mouth, her body rapidly shrunk. In just the blink of an eye, Jia Na transformed into a dull gray dead leaf butterfly and landed on Vivian's hair.
"Jia Na, your Deformation Art is getting better and better. It's completely indistinguishable from the real thing."
Although Vivian couldn't see at the moment, relying on the Ke Shi Na Snake's super strong perception ability, she could clearly "feel" that Jia Na's Life form was exactly the same as an ordinary butterfly.
"Okay, let's go quickly. Mr. Hermann will fly far away in a while."
Hiss, hiss. Hearing Jia Na's words, Vivian also lowered her body and quickly twisted her snake tail, disappearing into the snow.
And Vivian, having entered the icy and snowy environment, was like a swimming fish entering the sea at this moment. The surrounding accumulated snow had no effect on her speed whatsoever.
"Vivian, after you awakened the Ke Shi Na Snake bloodline, do you have the urge to hibernate in winter?"
As Vivian advanced quickly, Jia Na couldn't help but ask a question that greatly troubled her.
Because, as far as she knew, the Ke Shi Na Snake, as an ice-element fierce beast, would still hibernate during the coldest part of winter.
"Of course, I do, but my father said that if I want to go far on the path of a Warlock, I must restrain this bloodline instinct. Otherwise, my human part will be gradually Swallowing by beastiality until I completely turn into a fierce beast that only knows how to kill—"
From Vivian's telepathic voice, Jia Na could also hear the helplessness and the determination to win.
"Oh, right, I've actually been curious about something for a long time too—aren't butterflies afraid of the cold? But you seem to be fine now?"
According to the fifth of the Five Laws of Gamp's Deformation Art: just as a transformed fish will quickly dry up if it doesn't stay in water, Jia Na's biological characteristics would all transform into those of the transformed creature.
Just like a dead leaf butterfly, although it is a relatively cold-resistant species, in the extreme weather of the Extreme Cold Secret Realm, any butterfly would only end up being frozen to death.
"Of course, it's because of the Sun Badge. Otherwise, even if I didn't transform, I would be frozen to death."
"Oh—I forgot."
Within the Extreme Cold Secret Realm, besides the unchanging snowscape, there were actually many extremely fierce snowfield fierce beasts hidden within.
Just along the way, Jia Na had already seen no less than twenty kinds of fierce beasts, but fortunately, Vivian, who was already skilled at avoiding fierce beasts, fully utilized the Ke Shi Na Snake's bloodline talent for perception. Long before encountering any fierce beasts,
Vivian had changed direction in advance and hadn't encountered any danger.
"Thump, thump, thump, thump—"
Just as Vivian was continuing her journey, suddenly, a tremendous sound that felt like an earthquake came from the direction to their front right.
"What's that noise? An earthquake?"
Jia Na, who could clearly feel the tremor,'s first reaction was to guess if an earthquake had occurred.
"It's not an earthquake, it's a herd of snowfield mammoths moving in this direction."
Snowfield mammoth?
Hearing this name, Jia Na's first reaction was to think of the ancient creatures that only existed in the Ice Age in her previous Life.
"Do they have any magic?"
"No—snowfield mammoths are not considered extraordinary creatures, but in terms of strength, they are far stronger than some extraordinary creatures."
Snowfield mammoths are just ordinary creatures?
Jia Na, who hadn't seen any description of snowfield mammoths in the extraordinary creature illustrated book in the library or in the Intermediate Biology class, couldn't help but feel a sense of curiosity.
"How do you know about this creature?"
"Of course, my father told me—Jia Na, I need to hide under the ice and snow for a while. You need to hold on tight."
Hearing this, Jia Na immediately dispelled her transformation and returned to her human form, watching Vivian truly burrow into the ice and snow.
"Floral Guardian—"
While casting a shield on herself, a thick emerald green vine, about the thickness of a wrist, immediately flew out from Jia Na's long sleeve and tied itself to Vivian's snake tail. The other end of the vine was firmly bound to Jia Na's waist.
"Thump, thump, thump, thump—"
Just as the snowfield mammoths were about to arrive, the two successfully hid under the ice and snow until the snowfield mammoths had gone far away, and then they emerged again.
"If I have the chance, I must personally hunt an adult mammoth—"
"Careful!"
Before Vivian could finish her exclamation, Jia Na directly manipulated the vine and pulled Vivian over.
"Poof—"
As expected, just after Jia Na pulled Vivian over, an ice-blue centipede as large as a calf instantly burrowed out from underground and landed where Vivian had just been.
"Ding—"
【Today's Task: Complete an icefield hunt;
Task Reward: Talent experience 200 points, Skill experience 800 points, one random reward;】
Looking at the green text description on the task panel, a hint of joy flashed in Jia Na's eyes.
"After so long, a green-level task has finally arrived."
Since Jia Na accepted the red-level Main Quest, all the Daily Quests she received were white-level, and the attribute values of the task rewards were all at the "+0.1" level. "Jia Na, watch from the side how I kill it—"
"No, I want to fight alongside you."
Buzz—Before Vivian could respond, a light blue contract light flashed in front of Jia Na. In just an instant, Thundercloud, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, appeared in the center of the contract magic circle.
"Hmm? Did you contract a new summoned creature during this time?"
Since Jia Na hadn't summoned her fifth contracted creature during the last spar with Vivian in the Black Magic Defense class, this was Vivian's first time seeing Thundercloud today.
"That's right, it's very strong—"
