Chapter 204: Chapter 196: Snow Armor Component IV?

After picking up the items, Han Qiwu glanced around.

Hmm, the Snowman Captain isn’t here.

Might as well send these two battered Snowmen Elites off first.

Switching to the refined Longsword, Han Qiwu turned back around and charged at the two snowmen.

"Swish swish swish."

After about four or five slashes, the special effect of the Flame Ring was triggered again.

The upgraded version of "Fire Delight" was brought back to the world.

No visual is attached.

The upgraded version of "Fire Delight" had several more layers of flame coating its blade than before, now accompanied by a red glow effect.

The fiery red sword sliced through the snowmen as though it were slicing cucumbers.

Just a few strokes, and the two Snowmen Elites turned into white light and returned to their homeland.

Looking at the [Enhanced Snowman Essence] on the ground, Han Qiwu felt slightly dissatisfied.

Seems like his luck still wasn’t high enough. Time to find another opportunity to send Mr. Tang a gift.

Han Qiwu estimated that, if he didn’t have the jade Pixiu on him, the Flame Ring’s special effect would have triggered at most half as many times.

Luck truly is the ultimate truth.

Stashing the drops away, Han Qiwu shouted toward the depths of the ice: "Snowman Captain, where are you!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

A cluster of ice chunks flew toward him from behind.

"Back to sneaky attacks again?" Han Qiwu quickly pulled out the Paralysis Thorn as a shield.

"Bang."

One of the ice chunks smashed into the Paralysis Thorn, warping its shape and poking an uneven spot into Han Qiwu.

"The Paralysis Thorn needs upgrading too," Han Qiwu muttered, putting it away and switching to his Mysterious Light Crossbow to fire a Fishbone Arrow at the Snowman Captain.

Upgrading the Paralysis Thorn would have to wait.

Respecting the elderly, right? Master Shuzi deserves some rest.

Considering his old body.

A day’s rest should suffice.

Let’s talk after tomorrow.

[Rip].

Although the Fishbone Arrow struck the Snowman Captain squarely in the belly button, the resistance of the Snow Armor only shaved off a small amount of snow from the Captain.

"What a shame, such a prime spot. If I’d used a Mysterious Crossbow Arrow, it would’ve pierced right through its belly button." Han Qiwu shook his head, tapped Xiao Lai, and started pulling away for more distance.

At that exact moment, the previously clumsy Snowman Captain suddenly spat out a cascade of icy snowfalls from its mouth, flying straight at Han Qiwu.

"Damn, that’s repulsive." Han Qiwu immediately turned and prepared to run backward.

The location where he and the Snowman Captain stood was at the center of an alley, with no side paths to escape.

To Han Qiwu’s surprise, the flying snowy cascade was moving faster than he could run.

Within seconds, a thick ice wall made of icy snowfalls formed right behind Han Qiwu.

"Something’s off—why didn’t it use this ability before?" Han Qiwu heightened his vigilance, setting down a Fire Barrel behind him to attempt melting the ice wall while switching back to his Mysterious Light Crossbow to prepare for battle.

Blocking Han Qiwu’s path, the Snowman Captain stepped forward with heavy strides toward Han Qiwu.

"Boom boom boom."

The ice layer trembled.

"Xiao Lai, spit on it!" Han Qiwu calmly issued a command.

"Pfft."

Xiao Lai, sensing the tension in the air, spat a mouthful of venomous green liquid at the Snowman Captain.

A direct hit.

The Snowman Captain’s speed slowed down slightly.

But Han Qiwu’s crisis wasn’t over yet; he was now only 50 meters away from the Snowman Captain.

Judging by the attacking power the Snowman Captain showed earlier, engaging in close combat would spell dire danger for Han Qiwu.

With such a short distance left, he could fire at most one more shot with the Mysterious Crossbow.

"Flame Ring, lend me your strength!" Han Qiwu aimed at the Snowman Captain’s heart and squeezed the trigger forcefully.

"Whoosh!"

As he triggered the shot, a flame engraving appeared on his right-hand middle finger!

"Whoosh."

Unlike the Fishbone Arrow, the Mysterious Crossbow Arrow emitted only a faint flash of red glow mid-flight, entirely stealthy.

"Crack snap."

In no time at all, the Mysterious Crossbow Arrow pierced through the Snowman Captain’s Snow Armor, leaving a fiery red circular cavity at the heart area.

[Armor Break].

[Burn].

-2699

Extremely high damage!

The glow from the attack allowed Han Qiwu to clearly see cracks forming on the Snow Armor, with misty vapor rising from the Captain’s body, signaling severe injury.

"Armor Break is definitely brutal." Han Qiwu muttered, switching back to the refined Longsword and charging forward.

Strike while the iron is hot!

"Swish swish swish."

Han Qiwu followed up with a flurry of strikes aimed at the cracked parts of the Snow Armor, forcing the Snowman Captain to stagger backward repeatedly.

"Weeby weeby!"

Just as Han Qiwu was ready to finish the Snowman Captain off for good, the latter suddenly lay flat on the ground, clutching its head as it rolled down the alley slope.

"Gulu gulu."

Because of its massive size, its momentum grew larger as it rolled downhill, picking up speed with each roll.

Additionally, Han Qiwu noticed an unusual detail: whenever it touched scattered snow on the ice surface during its rolling, the cracks on its Snow Armor began to gradually mend.

The Snow Armor’s effect is incredible!

If I could wear it, it’d be even better!

"Where are you going!" Han Qiwu grew anxious, grabbing the nearby Fire Barrel, retracting the fire basin on top, and jumping in to roll after the Captain.

"Gulu gulu."

Three minutes later, with his head spinning, Han Qiwu leaned against a rock wall to alleviate his dizziness.

This was even more thrilling than amusement park rides.

meters ahead, the Snowman Captain wasn’t faring much better; it was sprawled out on the ground, throwing up continuously.

Snow and water puking out alternately.

"I thought you weren’t afraid of dizziness with how fast you ran." Han Qiwu steadied himself with the refined Longsword and began walking slowly toward the Snowman Captain.

Its end comes today!

Dealing with this thing was too exhausting—slippery when fleeing, tough when defending; fighting it was almost soul-crushing.

This bout had already lasted nearly an hour and a half.

An absolute bladder tournament!

"Swish swish swish."

After four or five consecutive slashes, Han Qiwu finally managed to crack the Snow Armor again.

Suddenly, the recovering Snowman Captain responded by swinging its palm forcefully toward Han Qiwu, though the speed was noticeably slower than before.

Clearly, that earlier shot of the Mysterious Crossbow Arrow with the Flame Ring’s effect had dealt a heavy blow to it.

With new gear, farming fights truly hits differently!

"I dodge!" Han Qiwu had been prepared, dodging the attack and shouting to Xiao Lai: "Spit again!"

"Pfft."

Obediently, Xiao Lai sent another mouthful of venomous green spit flying toward the Snowman Captain.

The Snowman Captain turned green once more.

Feeling cornered by the imminent threat, the Snowman Captain finally resorted to tearing a chunk from its shoulder’s Snow Armor and hurling it toward a nearby rock wall.

"What kind of move is this?"

Han Qiwu watched as the chunk landed on the ground, rapidly absorbing the snowflakes drifting off the rock wall, and before long, forming into a miniature Snowman Captain.

[Miniature Snowman Captain (Summoned)].

[Attack Types: Binding, Melee Combat].

[Loot Drop upon Defeat: Snow Armor Component IV].

[Skill - Sacrificial Substitute: As long as it exists, the primary Snowman Captain cannot take damage].

[Skill - Offering: Defeating the Miniature Snowman Captain renders damage to the primary Captain impossible for the next 12 hours].

[Remarks: For the honor of snow!]

Han Qiwu: "......."

A skill like this?

Is this an ability of the Snow Armor or the Snowman Captain?

If it’s the former, Han Qiwu’s interest peaked instantly.

It’d essentially mean having an extra life.

A guaranteed position of invincibility!

"Weeby weeby."

The Miniature Snowman Captain wobbled onto its feet, extending two snowy palms as it lunged toward Han Qiwu.

"Come forth! My Snow Armor!"
