Chapter 186: Winter Is Coming [5]



***

'Wait what!? Why?' Amon's thoughts spun in frustration.

Why were they doing th-

No, he knew why they were doing this.

He was just being too much of a complainer.

At the battlefield, it wasn't uncommon for the orders to suddenly change or the objective to change.

In such cases, you weren't supposed to voice out your complaints such as we just did that or why are you asking us to do this.

It was a simple and straightforward order that you were expected to follow.

And that was what they were teaching them here.

They were supposed to follow what Maxville said without hesitation.

At the battlefield, the one who remained calm and reacted to information the quickest was the one in lead.

'Fuck, there's no time to complain.' Amon cursed in frustration.

Since the storm had already overtaken half of the area, the area left to look for the Warm Shelter wasn't much.

Which meant that it would be easier to find it through a high vantage point now.

Organizing his thoughts, Amon quickly found the tallest tree in his area.

Using his blood threads, he quickly leaped from branch to branch until he was at the top.

Immediately, his eyes swept around the surroundings, trying to find a sign of the Warm Shelter.

'Wood, lights, fire, decorations anything, wood, lights...' Amon kept repeating the words that he had to look for in his mind.

But...

Even after minutes of looking around, there was not a single sign of shelter.

'What is going on?' He thought before using [Voidstep] in the air, to get an even higher view.

And as he looked down from above...

Again.

There was not single not even a tiny sign of a wood structure.

'This can't be real..' He thought, wide eyed as he still tried to look for the shelter.

But then, a sharp siren rang through the air.

The Blizzard...

It was heading towards the 4th Checkpoint now.

And there still wasn't any sign of the shelter.

While the time for the Storm's Overtaking had been greatly reduced.

'No, no, no, fuck' Amon cursed.

He was panicking slowly and slowly.

The cold from the winter was preventing his brain from thinking straight and calmly at the

And as she found herself above everything in the surroundings, she quickly tried to look for

signs of the Warm Shelter.

Her gaze swept across the surroundings.

But...

Her eyes widened.

There was no sign of the shelter at all.

'What the hell?' She tried to remember the details that were told to her by Maxville.

But even then, she was unable to find anything similar to the description.

'Come on, where in the world is it?'

She looked around and around, but was still unable to find anything.

Giving up, she sat down, trying to think of any hidden spots where the shelter could be.

It was a winning spot so of course it couldn't be found by normal eyes, now that she thought

about it.

Nadia knew there were a number of traps in the terrain and most of them were hidden in

bushes or such.

That meant the shelter could be in such a surrounding as well.

She racked her brain trying to think of any spot that she missed at the start.

It was then that the ground rumbled and shook and a large siren went off in the surroundings.

The Blizzard had started to move again...

Just the sheer amount of energy and power it held made Nadia gulp.

It was tremendous.

As an energy clovist, she could see it clearly.

Even in more detail because of her high talent.

'Wait...' Her mind suddenly clicked as a flashback passed through her thoughts.

A large energy reserve she had felt in the ground...

Or underground.

'Just at the start of the match...'

Nadia had thought about investigating it at first but had left it because...

Her eyes turned, staring at the large storm of energy heading towards her.

Because of the direction it led to.

Now that she thought about it, all the clues lined up.

Her expression morphed into one of horror.

'No...'

'You have to be kidding me...'

But she knew that was the only possible answer right now.
