But at this moment, Amo and his two companions regretted not bringing the thick cotton-padded coats they would wear during their nighttime operation.
Yao Yao nestled against Afu's chest. Afu squatted down, its thick fur providing warmth for one person, and even if another came, Afu could still "hug" them.
But Amo and Axu didn't need to find Afu for warmth; their priority was to explore the surrounding area and find a safe place to stay.
With spiritual energy present, they are not afraid of the cold at the moment, but with no spiritual energy in the surrounding environment, their time is very limited.
As a medical professional, Yao Yao is not needed for exploration. In the current situation, she needs to conserve her spiritual power to avoid being unable to treat patients, which would be disastrous.
As the team's shield, Afu naturally stayed behind to protect Yaoyao, keep her warm, and conserve his spiritual energy.
Yao Yao nestled in Afu's thick fur, only her little head peeking out. Her big eyes looked around curiously. Although she had seen snow and ice before, this flat, all-ice scene still fascinated Yao Yao.
"Afu, do you see someone over there?"
Afu stood up alertly and instantly hid his little master under his belly to avoid being discovered by the unknown enemy.
"Roar—"
As the distant, white, ethereal figure drew closer, Afu issued a warning. Amo and Axu were not present; its primary purpose was to protect its young master and it did not want to engage in battle. Therefore, Afu issued a warning first, using a drug to deter the enemy.
On the vast ice surface, Afu's roar echoed in all directions, but there was no echo. The place was obviously extremely vast.
The white phantom in the distance was still approaching. Afu's eyes were already filled with fighting spirit. It assumed a fighting stance, while Yaoyao had skillfully climbed onto Afu's back, lying tightly on its body and hugging Afu's neck, ready to cooperate with Afu at any time.
Through countless battles, she and Afu had developed a tacit understanding that required no communication.
As the white phantom in the distance drew closer, Afu gradually came to see who it was.
It turned out that it wasn't a phantom, but a group of figures dressed in white cloth!
"It's a person?!" Yao Yao exclaimed in surprise. How could there be a person?!
Wasn't this supposed to be for a world devoid of life?
Lin Qian could obtain information from the jade tablet, and so could the humans. However, since this information was unverifiable, most people believed it to be true.
Now that they suddenly saw human figures, which seemed to be human beings, Afu and Yaoyao were both somewhat surprised and uncertain.
The idea that the other party was a human who had come from the outside world, just like themselves, never even crossed the minds of the man and the dog.
Because the crowd in front of them didn't look like people from their area at all!
The significantly shorter stature and strange clothing indicated that the newcomer was not of the same race!
Just as Yao Yao and A Fu were filled with doubt and uncertainty, A Mo and A Xu also returned.
"Let's go!" Seeing the situation before him, Amo immediately chose to leave.
The situation was too strange. They only had one small team, and regardless of the opponent's strength, it was not suitable to engage them head-on.
Upon hearing this, Afu immediately turned and ran. Amo and Axu stared intently at the newcomer for a moment before rushing forward as well.
