After playing all morning, Li Yao was a little hungry. She put 6834 back into the baby bag in front of her and flew towards the town of Chamonix at the foot of the mountain on her skis.
Chamonix is a world-renowned town located at the foot of Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps, the roof of Europe. It boasts Europe's highest and best cable car, which takes you directly from the foot of the mountain to the Aiguille du Midi at an altitude of 3,842 meters. It also offers snow and ice activities such as skydiving and night dog sledding.
Chamonix has a main commercial street that is only 100 meters long. The street is lined with shops, supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants and everything else you could want. The town has wooden cabins, star-rated hotels, three-story buildings and ancient castle ruins, giving it a strong European feel.
Of course, that was the old town of Chamonix.
When Li Yao approached this place, the first thing she sensed with her mental power was the various zombies buried in the snow, as well as broken glass windows, frozen limbs, shops ransacked and messy, black bloodstains, many small wooden houses covered by heavy snow with only the roofs remaining, and some two- or three-story buildings still had zombies trapped inside, howling in various ways.
The hot spring hotel here is halfway up the mountain. There are some zombies inside: 19 level 2, 7 level 3, and 1 level 4. There are also many rooms with severed limbs and bloodstains. When Li Yao used her mental power to "look" over, the level 4 zombie was eating. It smashed the head of a level 3 female zombie with one slap, and then took out the crystal core and crunched it.
Li Yao flew closer on her skis, and once within the range of her [Spatial Control], she shattered the zombies' brains. She then controlled the crystal core to store it in her spatial dimension, and used [Spatial Devour] to consume the zombies. She gained 52 points.
Afterwards, Li Yao entered the hot spring hotel and scanned the area with her spiritual power. Finding no other living creatures, she went to the outdoor hot spring of the luxury suite on the top floor.
The hot springs here use water from the mountains, and from this angle, you can see snow-covered peaks in the distance—a truly stunning view.
The good news is that the hot spring pool has running water and hasn't frozen even at -80 degrees Celsius. There's also nothing dirty in it. However, Li Yao still scooped up a cup of hot spring water and flashed into her space to have Da Zhuang analyze it.
While waiting for the results, Li Yao cleaned up the area around the open-air pool a bit. She used [Spatial Control] to move all the ice and snow elsewhere, revealing the entire terrace floor. However, there was no bloodstain, so it seemed that no one had lived here before.
About half an hour later, the system informed Li Yao: "[Host, there is unknown energy in the hot spring, but the amount is extremely small; the rest is normal hot spring water.]"
Now that she has superpowers, she's not afraid of the energy in this location, and it might even be beneficial. Thinking of this, Li Yao opened the teleportation portal, returned to the mountain hotel, changed into a bikini and a bathrobe, and tied her hair into a bun on top of her head with a hair tie.
After crossing the teleportation portal, Li Yao controlled her body and slowly flew into the hot spring pool.
She used her fire-based powers to circulate throughout her body, so she wasn't afraid of the cold, but the sudden chill of the hot spring water still gave her goosebumps.
6834 was licking its paws and watching Li Yao by the hot spring pool. Li Yao thought for a moment, then took out a small to medium-sized inflatable plastic flamingo, the kind you play with in a swimming pool. It was a children's version that she had bought along with the vacation island in the Flag Country. She put it in the hot spring pool, and then used [Spatial Control] to put the Ragdoll cat on the inflatable toy, letting it float and play in the hot spring pool.
To be honest, neither Li Yao nor the original owner of this body had ever soaked in an open-air hot spring on a snowy day. This experience was quite novel. Moreover, the rising steam would wet their hair, and soon Li Yao's hair froze. The same was true for the Ragdoll cat, whose fur began to have small ice crystals.
Li Yao didn't use her fire-based abilities to melt the ice shards; she found it quite interesting that way.
While soaking in the hot spring, Li Yao took out a wooden tray and placed it in the pool. Inside, she put a glass of freshly squeezed juice, a glass of red wine, a plate of fruit, and a serving of popcorn chicken. These were all things that wouldn't crumble easily, so she ate them one bite at a time while soaking. Since she hadn't eaten lunch, Li Yao gradually got a little hungry, so she took out some sushi and small desserts like macarons to tide her over.
She also prepared sashimi for 6834, but 6834 said that it could eat human food without any problems, since it materialized specifically to eat.
So Li Yao also prepared a portion for it, and thoughtfully gave it a small fork.
The two of them, a human and a cat, soaked in the warm hot spring, gazing at the snow-capped mountains and the azure sky, enjoying delicious food and drinks, relaxing comfortably for over an hour. Finally, Li Yao felt a bit hungry and wanted hot pot, so the two of them emerged from the hot spring.
