Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Chapter 215: The Snow Tunnel

The sudden appearance of the gigantic monster startled Zhang Yi. However, he quickly composed himself. After facing numerous life-and-death situations, his nerves were steel-like. What surprised him was that the monster showed no hostility towards him. As Zhang Yi pondered how to deal with it, Fatty Xu and Uncle You climbed out of the snow and approached, looking for some ropes to descend further.

Their emergence caught the monster's attention. Fatty Xu, upon seeing the enormous creature, screamed in terror. Instinctively, he thrust his right hand forward, unleashing his power. Snow and ice erupted from the ground, surging towards the monster.

"Stop!" Zhang Yi shouted, but it was too late. In the snowy terrain, Fatty Xu's power was unrivaled. The snowstorm, mixed with heavy ice, pummeled the black monster. It let out a piercing scream and moved like lightning across the snow.

"So fast!" Zhang Yi's eyes widened. The massive creature moved swiftly, dodging the ice attack effortlessly and charging at Fatty Xu. Realizing the threat, Zhang Yi immediately enveloped himself with his spatial ability.

"Double speed!"

With his spatial ability enhancing his speed, Zhang Yi could double his movements, necessary to counter the beast’s attack. As the monster closed in on Fatty Xu, Zhang Yi raised his guns and fired rapidly.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The casing fell to the ground as Zhang Yi unleashed a flurry of bullets. The monster was fast, but Zhang Yi’s enhanced speed allowed him to aim accurately. Armor-piercing rounds struck the beast, sparks flying as some of its hard fur was clipped. It roared in anger but appeared not seriously injured.

Zhang Yi gasped. Those were armor-piercing bullets, yet they only managed to trim its fur. During the brief distraction, Uncle You stepped in front of Fatty Xu. His muscles bulged, and his body grew to over two meters tall, his skin turning stone-like. He punched the monster squarely in the face.

"Boom!"

The impact created a large depression in the snow as the beast's face twisted nearly 90 degrees, forcing it back several steps. It let out an infuriated roar.

"It's a feline!" Zhang Yi thought, noting the monster’s roar. Whether it was a mutated cat or something from the zoo, it was extremely dangerous. Felines were apex predators of their size class, barring mustelids.

Unhesitatingly, Zhang Yi holstered his handguns and switched to a sniper rifle. Against this beast, a handgun wasn’t sufficient. The power of a sniper rifle was necessary.

The monster saw three opponents: the robust Uncle You and Fatty Xu together and Zhang Yi a dozen meters away. It naturally chose to charge at Zhang Yi first. Zhang Yi, acting quickly, fired the sniper rifle.

"Bang!"

His deafening shot was even more powerful. The monster sensed danger and tried to dodge, but it couldn't outpace the sniper bullet, enhanced by his ability.

"Crack!"

The bullet struck its cheek, shattering rows of its steel-like whiskers and causing blood to spurt. Enraged, the monster curled into a ball, its body covered in spikes, and rolled towards Zhang Yi.

"Damn it!" Zhang Yi didn’t expect this maneuver. The rolling spiked ball plowed through the snow, creating deep fissures. Zhang Yi’s speed made dodging impossible, but he didn’t need to.

"Dimensional Gate, open!"

He opened a gate to a parallel dimension in front of him. While he enjoyed offense, defense was his strong suit. Once in the parallel dimension, any creature would be trapped in a frozen world, slowly perishing.

Sensing the danger, the monster abruptly changed direction mid-air and rolled away, disappearing hundreds of meters away.

"Damn, so close!" Zhang Yi cursed, frustrated at missing the chance to trap the beast. He wanted to study this mutant and understand the differences between mutated creatures and superhumans.

Fatty Xu and Uncle You quickly joined Zhang Yi, all eyes on the retreating monster. Zhang Yi aimed his sniper rifle but didn’t fire. The monster, realizing their threat, retreated cautiously before turning and vanishing into the snow.

"Where did it go?" Uncle You was astonished. Such a massive creature disappearing so suddenly was baffling.

Fatty Xu speculated, "Could it have spatial abilities, too?"

Zhang Yi shook his head. "Doesn’t seem like it. If it did, it would have used them earlier."

His spatial senses told him the monster had simply run off. They approached where the monster vanished and found a large tunnel leading into the snow.

"A tunnel!" Uncle You exclaimed.

"With this thing nearby, finding the people we’re looking for will be tricky," Fatty Xu said seriously. "If that monster is around, there shouldn’t be any survivors in the school."

"Brother Zhang, are you sure your information is accurate?"
