However, after taking a quick look around, he couldn't find any urgent tasks - could it be that he was too diligent and had completed all the urgent tasks accumulated in the magical city of Sharia?

There are a few more snow-related commissions: clearing snow from roads, clearing snow from roofs, clearing snow from the courtyards of manor houses, clearing snow from city walls...

Chen Ming definitely wouldn't take on such a small task. He also believed that in such a fierce snowstorm, even if someone went to shovel the snow, it would only be a drop in the bucket. At most, it would be slightly better than doing nothing.

Just when Chen Ming was worried about having no missions to take, a few familiar faces walked into the Adventurer's Guild.

They are Kim Ranee, Kim Mark, and Kim Ok Kang.

All the members of [Golden Legend]... were not present, which made Chen Ming a little confused - where was Jin Bisha?

If a stranger was missing, Chen Ming would not care, but Jin Bisha was a stunningly beautiful girl who met the system requirements, and her favorability had already risen to 62 points.

"good afternoon."

Chen Ming took the initiative to step forward and talk.

"Oh, it's infinite."

From Jin Lani's tone and expression in her response, Chen Ming discovered that she seemed to be in a low mood.

The same goes for Kim Mark and Kim Aokang standing by.

"…What happened?"

Chen Ming had a bad feeling and asked.

"Um...it's Jin Boda, Jin Bisha and the others..."

There was no trace of the smile she used to have on Jin Lani's face, and she even looked gloomy.

Did something really happen?

"What happened to them?"

"died."

Hearing this, Chen Ming's mood sank to the bottom of the lake.

Although this kind of thing is very common for adventurers - after all, the word "Adventure" is written in the name of the adventurer's profession, so there will naturally be danger to life.

Adventurers will eventually die. Some die early, some later, but as long as they don't retire, the possibility of death will always be with them. Such is the nature of adventurers.

But Chen Ming still didn't give up and asked: "Tell me the location!"

"It was in the west... the Tolia Forest in the west. Visibility was poor due to the snow and wind, and we strayed into the forest without realizing it. Just as we were trying to escape, we were attacked by a herd of snow buffalo. Jinboda and Jinbisha..."

Snow buffaloes roam the forest in large herds, with only one herd per forest. They typically stay in one location during the winter, rarely moving, and give birth in the snow. In most cases of being attacked by such a herd, it's because the adventurer has intruded into their territory.

Jin Lani's words were interrupted by Captain Jin Mark: "No, let's not talk about Jin Boda first, Jin Bisha may not be dead yet!"

He showed a twisted expression of unwillingness and began to argue with Jin Lani and Jin Aokang.

"She just got separated from us during the battle, and her body hasn't been found. So if we keep looking, maybe..."

"Don't say that. With that blinding blizzard and that dangerous forest, it would have been better to assume she was dead."

"But……"

"Didn't I tell you to stop? If we continue searching there, we'll die too! It's precisely because we understand this that we're following your instructions!"

Hearing Jin Lani's roar, Jin Mark lowered his head deeply.

They retreated based on Kingmark's instructions, so he seemed to regret it - which is understandable. Similar to the trolley problem, when people are forced to make important choices, they often choose to sacrifice a small number of people to keep the majority alive.

But after making the choice, you will feel regret.

"...Jin Mark, you don't have to bear it alone. Yes, we objected at the time, but in the end we agreed and returned here, so we share your guilt."

"Yeah, we are the same, so don't be so depressed alone."

Jin Lani and Jin Aokang both spoke to comfort Jin Mark.

Jin Mark raised his head and suddenly found that [Infinity] was gone.

Jin Lani and Jin Aokang followed his gaze and immediately showed hopeful expressions.

They had come to the Adventurer's Guild, hoping to ask [Infinity] for help, but they didn't know how to start...

As for Chen Ming, after asking for the address, he used [Teleport] to leave the Adventurer's Guild.

The Toria Forest is about 50 kilometers away from the magical city of Shalia.

But for Chen Ming, it was just a matter of a moment - he passed by here when he was doing an emergency mission before, so he could teleport there.

Although Jin Bisha is not his woman yet, he still came!

Chen Ming didn't know why he did this, there was no clear reason anyway!

In a snowstorm so strong that it obscured his vision, he spread his wings of light and flew resolutely into the Toria Forest.

"This snowstorm is really a nuisance..."

After flying for a while, Chen Ming raised his head and looked at the sky.

The gray clouds were continuously sprinkling snowflakes, seriously affecting the efficiency of the search and rescue.

This world has magic that can move clouds - such as the Water Saint-level attack magic [Thunderbolt Cumulonimbus], which can create large-scale storms accompanied by thunder and lightning!

In the original novel, Rudeus relied on this magic to become a Water Saint-level wizard at the age of five and successfully graduated.

Chen Ming has more magic power than Rudeus, but he has not yet learned [Thunderbolt Cumulonimbus].

As for the 100 magic spells in World No. 1, the power of the top ones is about the same as the superior magic in World No. 2, and is far inferior to the holy-level attack magic.

But it doesn’t matter, Chen Ming also has a [search device] that can be called a BUG!

This thing allows you to input a girl's name and search whether the girl exists within a one-kilometer radius centered on the user. If so, a white light spot will be marked.

Chen Ming only needed to enter Jin Bisha's name and then fly towards the center of the Tolia Forest in a spiral route.

You can search within a range of 1 kilometer on both sides.

This efficiency is higher than sending 2000 adventurers into the forest to search!

After all, Chen Ming doesn't need to use his eyes to see, the system will remind him when he passes by.

And its flying speed is extremely fast - the maximum acceleration of its wings is 200G, which is 1960m/s^2!

Simply put, in just 4 seconds, Chen Ming can accelerate to the first cosmic velocity (7.9 km/s), 5.5 seconds to reach the second cosmic velocity (11.2 km/s), and 8.35 seconds to reach the third cosmic velocity (16.7 km/s)...

Some friends may have questions. Why don’t you set an upper limit for the speed of [Wings of Light]? It can’t be able to increase infinitely, right?

Yes, brother, yes!

[Wings of Light] is an item that can be used repeatedly, so it consumes the user's energy. Whether it is attacking, accelerating, or decelerating, energy is required.

The upper limit of energy is also the upper limit of the speed of [Wings of Light] - because once the energy is exhausted, it can no longer accelerate or decelerate.

Just like a spaceship, if the fuel runs out, it will continue to move forward due to inertia until it hits something and stops... If there is enough energy, it can even slowly accelerate to almost the speed of light...

In short, after turning on the [search device], Chen Ming accelerated his flight over the Toria Forest.

It should have produced a sonic boom long ago since it was flying so fast in the atmosphere.

However, the light of the [Wings of Light] will envelop the entire body, forming a dominant form, automatically eliminating air resistance and the effects of acceleration overload on the human body. You can simply think of rainbow flight as the entire person transforming into a beam of light.

Light has no friction in the air and is not affected by air resistance!

It took only more than ten seconds for Chen Ming to fly across most of the Toria Forest in a spiral route.

Suddenly, a white light appeared on the [searcher].

He was overjoyed when he saw this, because the presence of light proved that Jin Bisha was still alive.

If the entire Toria Forest is searched and no light appears, it means she is dead.

So this is great news!

Chen Ming flew along the navigation route given by the [search device]. Before he landed, he saw a group of monsters on the ground.

That is a herd of snow buffaloes. You can see the buffaloes with gray fur relying on each other in the white snow.

Because of the wind and snow, the gray fur turned into a wonderful camouflage.

Adventurers can easily be attacked by surprise if they are unaware.

The buffaloes in the main world are herbivores, but the buffaloes in this world are carnivores.

However, Chen Ming was looking down from a high vantage point and was already on guard in advance.

Even though the snow buffaloes were hiding in the shadows of the trees, making it difficult to see clearly, he still spotted them...

Chapter 129: Hu Lai's Left Hand

The blizzard provided natural cover for the snow buffaloes and also provided excellent concealment for Chen Ming who was flying in the air.

He poured magic power into his hands and began to chant the spell.

It is difficult to use the magic of World No. 1 in actual combat, but at this moment Chen Ming occupied the sky!

As the saying goes, attack high and low, and attack fools - in modern warfare, seizing and maintaining air superiority has a decisive impact on the course and outcome of the battle.

Perhaps the magic of World No. 1 cannot defeat all the snow buffaloes at once.

But the Snow Buffalo had no means of anti-air attack, so Chen Ming could cast spells calmly. If one spell was not enough, he could cast ten. Anyway, he had more than enough magic power.

“reoreoreo… [Earth Dragon Thorn]!”

As Chen Ming finished singing.

A large number of spikes as thick as telephone poles suddenly emerged from the feet of the snow buffalo herd, piercing more than a dozen snow buffaloes at the same time and killing them on the spot.

"Ho ho ho...!"

The herd of snow buffaloes were shocked by the sudden attack and began to roar while being alert to their surroundings.

“reoreoreo… [Red Lotus Explosion]!”

A blood-red fireball as big as a basketball flew out in a parabola and landed among a large group of snow buffaloes. The explosion set off a blazing red lotus flame.

Because Chen Ming had already locked onto Jin Bisha's location through the white light spot in the [search device], there was no need to worry about accidental injury.

He alternated between using [Earth Dragon Thorn] and [Red Lotus Explosion], killing the remaining snow buffaloes in groups...

The snow buffalo herd was in chaos trying to find the enemy. By the time they found Chen Ming in the sky, most of the snow buffalo had already died.

Moreover, they discovered in despair that they had no way to fight back!

I could only start trying to escape.

However, it was too late. Chen Ming had no intention of letting any of them go from the beginning.

He continued to use [Earth Dragon Thorn] and [Red Lotus Burst] mechanically, and before long, no moving snow buffalo could be seen at the scene.

If they had scattered and fled from the beginning, perhaps some of them could have escaped, leaving behind a number sufficient to sustain the population - after all, Chen Ming's main purpose was to rescue people, and he would not chase them too far.

But unfortunately, the snow buffalo is a monster. When suddenly attacked, it will not react by running away immediately like ordinary wild beasts. Instead, it will try to find the enemy and launch a counterattack, fighting and fighting again until it realizes that it cannot win, and then it will finally be willing to escape.

This makes them lose the best opportunity to escape.

What a warlike and self-destructive habit.

"call……"

After dealing with the snow buffalo herd, Chen Ming chanted a spell and cast 9 layers of defensive magic, then slowly descended and landed on the snow.

Amid the almost suffocating smell of blood, he looked towards the white light spot marked by the [searcher].

At this moment, Chen Ming seemed to hear some sound.

"Crack!"

It's very similar to the sound water makes when it freezes instantly.

Is it a monster? Is there a monster nearby that makes that kind of sound?

Or was it a monster in the distance, attracted by the bloody smell of the snow buffalo?

Thinking of this, Chen Ming had a bad feeling. He felt as if something invisible was lurking in the dark, ready to attack him.

Even so, despite careful observation, he saw no trace of the monster, nor could he hear the sounds he had heard before. He could only hear the rustling of branches or the rustling of leaves in the wind.

If it were when he had just entered World No. 1, Chen Ming would definitely not put himself in danger and would prioritize his own safety!

But now, Chen Ming has life-saving items such as [Golden Body of Shining Moon], [Still Pocket Watch], [Wings of Light], [Cross of Rebirth], and [Teleportation], which allows him to leave the battlefield at any time!

He is confident that even if he encounters the seven great powers of this world (the God of Skills, the God of Dragons, the God of Fighting, the God of Demons, the God of Death, the God of Swords, and the God of the North), he will be able to escape unscathed!
