Su Yao headed towards the city ruins buried under ice and snow, the cold wind cutting like a knife across her face. As she approached the edge of the city, she saw that the once towering buildings had become ice sculptures, teetering on the verge of collapse.
As soon as Su Yao stepped into the city, she sensed a dangerous aura. The snow beneath her feet suddenly shifted, revealing a swarm of snow rats darting about. These snow rats were several times larger than ordinary mice, with teeth as sharp as steel nails, and they surged towards Su Yao like a tide. Su Yao immediately used her spatial ability to teleport to the wreckage of a nearby ice cart.
She activated her wind blade ability, unleashing countless wind blades that rained down on the snow rat swarm. The wind blades sliced through the snow rats, splattering blood onto the white snow, but the snow rats were too numerous; as those in front fell, those behind continued their charge. Su Yao frowned, infusing her fire ability into the wind blades. The flaming wind blades became significantly more powerful, instantly incinerating any snow rat hit.
Having resolved the snow rat crisis, Su Yao continued deeper into the city. Guided by the system, she headed towards a shopping mall that might have a large stockpile of supplies. However, the path to the mall was fraught with obstacles, including collapsed building wreckage and traps hidden in the snow. Su Yao skillfully used her spatial abilities to avoid these dangers.
When she arrived at the mall entrance, she found it blocked by a huge block of ice. She used her spatial abilities to try and move the ice, but it was too heavy. So, she activated her fire abilities, slowly melting the ice. As the ice melted, a sinister roar echoed from inside the mall.
Su Yao prepared for battle. Once the ice had melted enough to create a large enough hole, she slipped into the mall. The mall was pitch black, save for the faint light from the light source in her hand. The roars grew closer, and suddenly, a snow leopard pounced from the darkness. This snow leopard was pure white, its eyes gleaming with a cold green light, and its claws were incredibly sharp.
Su Yao used her spatial ability to teleport behind a nearby shelf, causing the snow leopard to miss its target. It quickly turned and pounced on Su Yao again. Su Yao activated her wind blade ability, sending wind blades flying towards the snow leopard, but the leopard nimbly dodged the attacks in mid-air. Knowing this snow leopard was difficult to deal with, Su Yao decided to take the initiative.
She combined her spatial and fire abilities to create a fiery spatial shield, then charged towards the snow leopard. Seeing Su Yao approach, the snow leopard opened its jaws to bite her. The instant Su Yao was close, she used her spatial ability to teleport above the snow leopard, simultaneously pressing the fiery spatial shield down on it. Engulfed in flames, the snow leopard let out a painful roar.
Taking advantage of the snow leopard's injury, Su Yao activated her wind blade ability, sending wind blades piercing the snow leopard's vitals like sharp swords. The snow leopard struggled a few times before collapsing to the ground. Su Yao didn't linger, continuing her search for supplies within the mall.
She found a large quantity of daily necessities in the mall's warehouse, including warm clothing, blankets, and various food items. These supplies were crucial for survival in the apocalypse, and Su Yao excitedly stored them in her spatial storage.
While collecting supplies, Su Yao discovered a hidden door in a corner of the warehouse. She opened it to find a basement filled with various electronic devices and tools. These devices, used to repair and modify other items in the apocalypse, were rare treasures.
Just as Su Yao was preparing to store the supplies from the basement into her spatial storage, cracks began to appear in the basement walls, and a powerful chill emanated from the cracks. Sensing danger, Su Yao quickly left the basement and returned to the mall lobby.
At this moment, the temperature in the mall lobby plummeted, and the surrounding air began to freeze. Su Yao saw a giant ice man appear in the center of the lobby. The ice man was tall, its body made of hard ice, and its eyes were two blue gems that radiated a cold aura.
The ice man walked towards Su Yao, leaving an icy footprint with each step. Su Yao activated her fire ability, spraying flames at the ice man, but the flames were insignificant before him and were extinguished instantly. Su Yao then used her spatial ability to teleport repeatedly to evade the ice man's attacks.
While dodging, Su Yao noticed that the Iceman's movements were slightly sluggish, and its joints seemed to be relatively vulnerable. She decided to take advantage of this, unleashing her Wind Blade ability to attack the Iceman's joints. The wind blades struck the Iceman's joints, leaving some small cracks.
Su Yao saw a glimmer of hope. She fused her spatial, fire, and wind blade abilities together, creating a powerful energy attack that struck the Ice Man's joints. Under her attack, the Ice Man's joints gradually shattered, and the Ice Man lost its balance, collapsing with a crash.
After resolving the Iceman crisis, Su Yao stored all the supplies in the mall into her spatial storage. She left the mall and, following the system's prompts, headed towards the next potential location for supplies—a factory covered in ice and snow, where there might be more resources to help her survive in the apocalypse.
