Hey, isnt it too cold?

Cold Cold Cold.

As expected, Adhai and the Mother of the Sky began to shiver fiercely in the biting cold.And if that was not enough, currently, everyone was in a state of hunger as well.

It will be difficult to maintain the temperature with this spaceship.

After the corrosion tentacles were released, the spaceship was completely destroyed. Not only the engines but also the metal walls that made up the hull were completely corroded. If a storm were to hit in this state, the ship would be shattered into pieces.

We need to hurry and find food and shelter.

[ZZZ ZZZZ ZZ (Please help everyone)]

Just trust me!

I asked the most intact number 26 among them to take care of the others and stepped out of the spaceship.

The land covered in snow welcomed me. As I moved my combat arms, the thick layer of snow was swept away, revealing the ice underneath.

Smooth and shiny ice without a single crack. On its surface, the pristine state of me, without utilizing the characteristic of organic evolution, was reflected.

With six sturdy horns and a slender head reminiscent of a crocodile or a large cephalopod, beneath it, countless tentacles of monsters fluttered like fins.

Under the swaying tentacles in the wind, there were sturdy carapaces mixed with synthetic scales, wrapping around the body and six combat arms, two small arms near the chest.

Finally, beneath the ice, not reflected in it, a large, long tail that replaced my lower body was partially buried in the snow. Only the pincers at the end of the tail and the spikes attached inside them were poking out above the snow.

I sprinted across the snow-covered plain with a huge body ranging between 27m and 28m. The traces I left behind disappeared instantly thanks to the snow and hail constantly falling. If I didnt have auxiliary devices, I would have been lost in no time.

The mountain range in the distance, should I go there? No, its too far. Instead

I stopped running and looked down at my feet.

Among the creatures inhabiting the ice planet, there is a species that lives beneath the ice. Even under ice so thick that its thickness cannot be determined, life exists.

There is a void under this ice.

Confirming this fact through my auxiliary organs, I raised the pincers at the end of my tail upwards. I focused on the sensation of exerting strength on the muscles of my whole body.

Then, the scales and carapaces covering my body began to glow red. It was the effect of the heat emission characteristic obtained from the previous Star Union supply line.

Originally, it was a cold-blooded temperature regulation characteristic.

Unlike the original characteristic that simply warms the body, when acquired by an Amorph, it can convert internal energy into heat to emit strong heat like now.

The thickness of this ice is over tens of meters, and it is incredibly hard. With my physical abilities, I could easily dig through it with my bare hands, but it would take a lot of time.

Although the situation is energy deficient

Since I need to find shelter and food as soon as possible, investing energy now is the best option.

As the ice I stood on melted, steam rose. The thickest pincers and head carapace of the carapace on my body shone brightly like heated iron.

I think this is enough.

I struck the ice with the hot pincers of the golden tail. As the hot pincers collided with the ground, immense heat and steam spewed out.

With a grinding sound, the thick ice melted rapidly. Somehow, it sounded like when you put pork belly on a hot grill.

Sigh. Seems like Im really hungry.

Having regained my appetite, I pulled out my tail from the ice hole. Inside the deep hole, there was only darkness.

Using the blunt claws scattered throughout my combat arms and body, I dug into the hole. Thanks to the heat emitted from my body and the melting ice, it wasnt difficult to enlarge the hole.

After digging several hundred meters further down, the space suddenly widened.

I finally arrived at the underground space under the ice. I hung on to the ice ceiling and looked down below.

Although nothing was visible due to the lack of light, thanks to the auxiliary devices, I could clearly feel the structure of this place. The temperature in the underground space was higher than above, and there was soil and ice on the common floor.

There are living organisms here too.

From the darkness beyond, the sounds of wriggling life could be heard. I utilized the suction cups attached to the fingertips to cling upside down to the ceiling and moved.

Not far from my position, there is a gathering of creatures. They are alert, emitting unique ultrasound waves to survey their surroundings.

Cave Goyle.

Cave Goyle are creatures that live in underground colonies or very deep caves. They look like a combination of bats and primates, enlarged to about 3 meters in size.

Their vision has completely degraded, so they use special ultrasonic waves like bats to identify objects. They probably realized by now that I am in this colony.

Ugh, please tell me were not far.

Cold Hungry Cold! Hungry!

Upon closer inspection, I saw that both the Mother of the Sky and Adhai were tightly hugging Number 26, buried deep in the soft, slimy body, shivering except for their heads.

From my experience, 26s body temperature was always constant regardless of the surrounding temperature. So, placing it on my head or shoulder always gave a pleasantly cool sensation.

Would it feel warmer in such a cold place like this?

Seeing them shivering here, I wondered if it would feel warm instead. If we lingered here any longer, both of them might suffer. I guided them into the hole dug underground.

As Number 26 and I braved the snowstorm, suddenly, Adhai sent out a warning telepathic wave.

Adult! Young adult! Danger!

[ZZZ (Adhai?)]

I Kin Detection Sky Flight Tracking

Huh? I sense something similar to the little one over there. Fascinating.

Trembling while emitting sense waves, Adhai. Then Number 26 also spoke similar words to Adhais.

Kin?

I looked up and glanced at the sky. Beyond the incessant snow and hail, all I could see was thick gray clouds.

I urgently called out to the Mother of the Sky.

The Mother of the Sky also seemed to sense that something was amiss as she turned her head upward. Her pumpkin-colored pupils slowly moved and then rapidly expanded upon reaching the vicinity of the mountains.

Its a White Gallagon! Its flying in this direction!

[ZZZ ZZ ZZZ ZZZZ (Hurry up. Everyone, get on top of me!)]

Seeing the trembling Adhai, it didnt seem like they were coming here with good intentions. I placed Number 26, who was holding the children, on top of me.

Confirming that Number 26 had firmly grasped onto my body with its tentacles, I dashed at full speed.

[ZZZ ZZZZ (Hold on tight)]

Wow!

With all six of my combat arms and blunt claws scattered throughout my body, my body shot forward like a projectile from a cannon.

While running, I asked the Mother of the Sky.

[ZZZ ZZZ ZZ ZZZZ ZZ (Where could it have come to by now?)]

If its at this speed, within 5 minutes? No, within 3 minutes, itll pass over us.

Even while soaring high, the White Gallagon can still see us. Though its still far away, it might not be long before it discovers our location while flying around this area.

Traces will quickly disappear due to the snow, but

Its not the same for the hole. Since the entrance is so large, it will take a while for the snow to cover it up.

I have to block it.

Arriving at the hole leading underground in an instant, I first pushed 26 inside.

[ZZZZ ZZ ZZZZ ZZ (When you go down below, start filling up the stomach first.)]

Isnt the big one coming down?

[ZZZZ ZZ ZZZ ZZZ ZZ ZZZZ ZZ ZZZ (A series of affirmative responses indicating having tasks to do. Ill come down soon.)]

After reassuring Number 26, I covered the entrance of the hole with my body. Then, I extended my corroding tentacles to gather the piled-up snow around and scattered it over my body.

Only after the snow piled up on my body did I retract the corroding tentacles.

After finishing everything, I held my breath, and then I heard an alien sound of wind from above.

It was very faint and subtle, but it was clearly the sound of wings flapping.

The sound came and went slowly.

Hes here.

The great beast known as the Dragon of the Universe was circling around me.
