Chapter 738: 512

Originally, Qin Chu had not connected the Ice Witch Gloria with the Evil God Remains, but now that he sensed their positions were very close or even likely to be in the same area, this idea uncontrollably sprouted in his mind.

What did Gloria purchase from the Duchy?

Magic Bombs.

Holy Crystal Stones.

It goes without saying that the Magic Bombs are used for explosive destruction.

The Holy Crystal Stones, on the other hand, are pure energy conglomerates, which, when modified through special means, can also achieve the effects of a bomb.

Could it be that the Ice Witch Gloria intends to use a large number of Magic Bombs and Holy Crystal Stones to destroy the Evil God Remains?

Once this thought emerged in Qin Chu’s mind, it spread like ripples, making it difficult for him to contain his consciousness.

The Ice Witch wielded the Cold Ice Authority, whose original owner was the local god of the Sky Dome Continent, the Ice God, who was slain by the Strongest Evil God a thousand years ago.

Some of the Ice God’s resentment still lingered within the Authority, and upon encountering the Evil God Remains, the desire to completely destroy them was quite natural.

But this was destined to be a path to failure.

The combat power of the Strongest Evil God was too terrifying; it was an entity that required all the gods of the Sky Dome Continent to besiege, and almost all had to die in order to be eliminated.

Even just a damaged body was certainly not something that a witch merely inheriting the Cold Ice Authority could destroy.

The Witch was not all-powerful.

Gloria had entered the glacier three times, and after the third time, there were no records of her emerging.

Therefore, it is very likely that Gloria has perished within the glacier, unable to withstand the corruption of the Evil God Remains — Great and Small Shaye being exceptions, not every witch possesses the strength of Great and Small Shaye.

If Gloria has indeed died, then what has been attracting Antasia is likely the Cold Ice Authority that had resided within Gloria, which might have chosen Antasia, hoping that she would become its new host, and possibly even hoping that Antasia inheriting the Ice God’s will would destroy the remnants of the Evil God in this world.

And from the increasingly domineering call that Antasia sensed, could it be that the Cold Ice Authority is also experiencing some problems?

In a brief moment, numerous questions emerged in Qin Chu’s mind.

Unfortunately, these questions could not be answered soon. Perhaps the truth would only be known upon encountering the Evil God Remains and finding the Cold Ice Authority.

For now, Qin Chu suppressed the thoughts that had emerged and took some food from his storage ring.

This food had been carefully prepared by his mother-in-law, Heidi. After Qin Chu heated them with a Fireball, they immediately became steaming hot, delicious dishes.

To taste such warm food in a snow-covered land was an absolute luxury.

Qin Chu shared some food with Antasia and watched as Princess ate small mouthfuls, her slender neck gently moving as she swallowed, her neck reflecting the silvery light of the glacier, inexplicably alluring.

Qin Chu’s gaze lasted only a very brief moment before he averted his eyes and casually asked, "How far have we left, and has the Ice Duchy explored this place before?"

It is very easy to lose one’s way in the glacier.

Qin Chu did not know how far he had flown; he could only roughly estimate the distance based on time.

"Over six hundred kilometers, the Ice Duchy has never reached this area before, it’s too cold," explained Antasia slowly after swallowing her food. "The Duchy hasn’t many experts."

"They have tried before, but under extremely low temperatures, the Magic Power inside the magicians seems to freeze, greatly slowing the circulation until it completely freezes."

Antasia spoke to Qin Chu about events that had happened in the Ice Duchy, which were not particularly important for this exploration deep into the glacier, but she felt a faint happiness just casually chatting with Qin Chu.

Antasia really liked this feeling.

Just then, Antasia suddenly saw Qin Chu slightly lifting his right hand, making a gesture.

Her deep blue eyes flickered slightly, and the intelligent Princess immediately understood Qin Chu’s meaning, her lips curving into a slight smile. After an almost imperceptible pause, her beautiful, cold voice once again filled the glacier.

"Only a Great Mage or a more powerful magician can last long enough in the glacier, but even these powerful individuals do not dare to stay too long, as they need to reserve enough Magic Power to ensure their safe return."

"It’s thanks to you that I can venture to such depths; you are the first to do so," Antasia nonchalantly flattered.

"Well, although the scenery here isn’t particularly nice, it does make me feel a bit terrified," Qin Chu shrugged and casually remarked.

He paused, then continued, "But this place is truly quiet. I thought that even if no animals could survive here, there might at least be some sort of creatures, like snow monsters or something..."

"Snow monsters? What are those?"

"Hmm, large-bodied, white-furred primates? Something like that, but I haven’t seen any. It seems that apart from the cold, there are no other dangers in the depths of the glacier, so we can be a bit more at ease."
