Gu Shi also walked over and touched the robe. He could indeed feel a slight heat coming from it. "This should be made of some kind of fire-type magical beast material. It's perfect for keeping warm."
Zhao Zhize nodded, "Yes, this is what Cheng Xuqing and I bought during our trip to another world. I knew our destination was snow, so I dug it out.
Gu Shi, do you want some? I have some here."
"Well, give me one too."
Although Gu Shi can use magic to resist the cold around him, it is better to use magic sparingly in such an unknown environment. After all, no one knows what will happen next, so he has to prepare in advance.
All three of them put on red robes.
Gu Shi looked at them and frowned slightly. "This seems a bit too conspicuous. How about we put on a white cloak to cover it up? Will this affect your movements too much?"
Gu Shi himself had no problem. As a wind mage, displacement was his strong point, and these two pieces of clothing would not affect his spellcasting.
But Zhao Zhize is a warrior, and Cheng Xuqing has not yet learned to fly. Wearing so many clothes may affect their combat.
Hearing Gu Shi say this, Cheng Xuqing shook his head frantically, "It's okay, it's okay, I'd better put on one more layer, I can't bear to take this dress off.
Wrapping too much will affect my speed, but if my hands and feet get numb from the cold, wouldn't that have the same consequences? I chose to make it easier for myself."
"That's true. Do you have any light-colored cloaks? I do have a few, but..." Gu Shi turned to look at Zhao Zhize, "My size might not fit you."
Since becoming a soldier, Zhao Zhize, who was originally considered thin, has undergone a complete transformation. Now he not only has eight abdominal muscles that people envy and hate, but his height has also increased a lot.
Zhao Zhize waved his hand and said, "No need. I've already considered this and prepared in advance."
After making preparations at the edge of the ice field, the three continued to move forward.
On the way forward, Zhao Zhize did not forget to introduce the information about this ice field to the other two.
"According to the intelligence I've gathered, there are three main types of monsters living in this ice field: the Dire Wolf, the Snow Lizard, and the Frost Flower Rabbit.
The Direwolves and Snow Demon Lizards have clearly defined territories, but the Twin Rabbits are different. They are found throughout the ice field and are the ones we need to be most wary of."
"Frost Flower Rabbits are known for their swift movements and strong jumping ability. They usually move in groups, and the strength of the entire group can vary greatly.
My advice is to avoid them first. After all, our goal is to find things, not to clear monsters.
If we really can't dodge, we'd better fight quickly. Frost Flower Rabbit is very sensitive to its surroundings. If we're not fast enough, we may face a situation where the enemy will become more and more numerous."
Cheng Xuqing glanced at the photos of the three monsters and touched his chin. "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that the monsters in this space rift look a little too normal. Their basic features can match those of certain animals.
I've also been looking up information about other dimensional rifts. There aren't as many monster species in those rifts, and their appearances are bizarre, not at all like the species on our Blue Planet."
Gu Shi explained, "Do you remember that last time I told you that this spatial rift is actually a secret realm passed down from long ago?
If I'm not mistaken, the monsters here are basically formed by the original mysterious creatures infected with demonic energy. As the ancestors of our species on Blue Star, it's normal for them to look similar.
However, the monsters in other dimensional rifts are all minions collected by demons from other worlds, so their strange appearances are understandable."
Cheng Xuqing said thoughtfully: "Oh, so the credibility of the things you encountered last time has greatly improved. That's great, we..."
He wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Zhao Zhize before he could finish.
"Look, is there someone in front?" Zhao Zhize said as he pointed his finger forward.
After hearing his words clearly, Gu Shi and Cheng Xuqing turned their heads and saw a figure vaguely in the wind and snow ahead.
Cheng Xuqing squinted his eyes and looked for a long time, but still couldn't confirm the identity of the black shadow.
"Hiss, the reflection here is a bit too strong. My eyes hurt after staring at it for too long." He couldn't help rubbing his eyes.
Zhao Zhize patted Cheng Xuqing's shoulder and said, "Are you okay? If you feel really uncomfortable, just close your eyes and rest for a while. It's also my fault for not thinking it through. I should have brought some sunglasses with me."
Gu Shi stared at the shadow for a while, "He seems to be moving towards us. What do you think? Should we just avoid him?"
Zhao Zhize and Cheng Xuqing exchanged a glance and said, "Why don't we just hide and observe the situation first?"
"I agree. We still can't be sure what this black shadow is. It would be bad if we join in the fun and get ourselves involved."
Gu Shi had no objection to their idea, nodded and said, "Okay, then you two quickly stand next to me, and we'll move a little to the side."
Under the cover of the never-ending wind and snow on the ice field, Gu Shi and his companions' original footprints were quickly covered. The three of them found a small snow slope and lay down, quietly observing the changes in the situation.
As time passed, the black shadow that Gu Shi and the others had just seen gradually approached here.
However, it was not what they imagined. The black shadow was not just one person, but a group of four people running wildly in a long line. Behind them was a large group of Frost Flower Rabbits. It seemed that this was the culprit that caused them to escape frantically.

Gao Yang felt that he was going to be defeated today. The number of Frost Rabbits following them far exceeded his imagination. It was impossible for them to deal with it with their strength alone.
It was a fantasy to want to escape from the pursuit of these rabbits. The Frost Rabbit's strength was its speed, and he was a mage with short legs, so he couldn't escape at all.
The reason why I can now keep up with the rabbits' speed is thanks to the effect of the potion and the help of my teammates.
But the potion he took would soon lose its effect, and by then his speed would have dropped drastically, making him a burden to his teammates.
Thinking of this, Gao Yang's heart was filled with sadness. Perhaps this was his destined death place.
Looking at his teammates who were dragging him one after another in front of him, Gao Yang felt that he could not drag them down any longer.
Gao Yang took the initiative to let go of his teammate's hand.
