34: Extremely cold snow girl, loli?
Mr. Yamamoto Kenta's fingers trembled slightly, his gaze locked onto the dense red dots on the screen.
He knew exactly what these red dots represented—abnormal activity in the Critical Point.
Under normal circumstances, such a Critical Point should remain stable, with at least three years before it would open on its own.
However, the current situation clearly exceeded his expectations.
One must know that in internationally recognized classifications, Critical Points are divided into four levels: S-level, Super S-level, Disaster-level, and Doomsday-level.
The higher the level, the longer it takes for them to open.
For example, once an S-level Critical Point appears, it usually opens on its own within three months, but the threat is relatively low, and even small countries can easily deal with it at a certain cost.
One level higher is the Super S-level.
Once a Critical Point of this level appears, it will automatically open within a year.
By that time, the city where it is located will be immediately blockaded, and even major powers would have to pay a certain price to resolve the problem.
If this were to happen to a small country, it would almost be equivalent to a national extinction crisis.
Next is the Disaster-level, which is an even trickier existence.
According to records, this type of Critical Point generally takes about ten years to open naturally.
However, it is worth noting that "ten years" is just a rough estimate, because so far, all activated Disaster-level Critical Points were not opened naturally.
But regardless, it is at least certain that a Disaster-level Critical Point will not open within nine years.
Because the earliest Disaster-level Critical Point in the world has not yet opened on its own.
But regardless, the danger of the Disaster-level goes without saying; it is an existence second only to the Doomsday-level.
Once opened, even the most powerful major nations must exhaust their national strength to fight it.
The reason is simple: once a Disaster-level Critical Point opens, it creates continuously expanding spatial rifts.
Although the monsters pouring out of the rifts are terrifying, the real trouble is actually the Evil Spirits.
Evil Spirits of this level can cause even Radiant Star powerhouses to fall if they are careless, and every time a Disaster-level Critical Point opens, at least three of these existences appear.
Worse, one more is added every day!
As for the last level—Doomsday-level, there is currently no detailed description, because although it has appeared, no one has ever witnessed its true power with their own eyes.
The name alone is enough to make one imagine that once it is opened, the result will surely be devastating.
There are only seven of these in the entire world.
But now, Mr. Yamamoto Kenta had no time to dwell on these things.
Encountering such a major event, he had to report to his superiors immediately.
However, just as he was preparing to act, a massive red light spot suddenly appeared on the screen!
Not only that, this red dot was expanding outward at an astonishing speed.
【Warning! Warning!】
The system's cold voice suddenly rang out, pushing the atmosphere in the entire room to freezing point.
【Energy fluctuations have reached the limit, the equipment cannot continue to monitor!】
Mr. Yamamoto Kenta's hand hung in mid-air, stiff as if frozen.
His gaze was locked firmly on the screen; the constantly flashing prompts made cold sweat break out on his forehead, and bead-sized sweat drops slid down his cheeks.
This was high-end equipment bought from Beacon Country at a high price!
The detection limit reached the Radiant Star upper level, yet now it had directly gone off the charts.
What did this mean?
There was only one possibility—that unknown existence was at least a Catastrophe-level monster!
"How is this possible?"
Mr. Yamamoto muttered to himself, "The Critical Point just opened, how could something of this level appear so quickly?"
...
Meanwhile, in another space, a violent spatial ripple spread out.
Su Yi's figure slowly emerged from it. He looked around and found that the place was already covered in snowflakes flying across the sky; the world was a silver landscape.
He looked down at the positioning device in his hand and speculated to himself:
"This should be Hokkaido in the island country, right?"
The reason for coming here was simple: among the materials he drew last time, there was a Flame Heart and an Ice Heart.
Since the fire had already been released, the ice and snow naturally could not be absent.
After all, one more monster shouldn't cause too much trouble for the island country... right?
Su Yi thought with some uncertainty, but then shook his head. Forget it, Sayonara.
Subsequently, Su Yi quickly scanned the surrounding environment and then disappeared from the spot instantly. When he reappeared, he was already standing on top of a mountain piercing the clouds.
Su Yi carefully checked the surroundings but found no traces of any Critical Point.
"It seems you are lucky; no need to open a blind box for you this time."
Su Yi muttered to himself, then opened the fusion panel he carried with him and put the required materials into it one by one.
This recipe included two purple-quality materials—【Extreme Ice Heart】 and 【Snow God's Hair Strand】, plus a blue-quality small item—【Pure White Hairpin】.
As for why he used two purple materials?
The reason was simple: he really couldn't find a more suitable substitute among the blue materials.
Besides, he had already placed two purple-level monsters before, so adding another new guy fused from two purple materials shouldn't be too much for the island country to handle, right?
Having made up his mind, Su Yi did not hesitate at all and started the fusion program directly.
As the button was pressed, a pale purple light circle slowly formed in front of him, about one meter high.
Looking at the small light circle in front of him, Su Yi frowned slightly, unable to help but mutter in his heart:
"Why is it so mini again? Is it going to produce a monster egg again?"
However, just as he was guessing, the light circle suddenly shattered, revealing what was inside—a little girl covered in snow-white long hair, petite and cute, as if she had walked out of a fairy tale.
"A loli?"
Su Yi was stunned for a moment.
【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】
【Blizzard Domain: When the Extreme Cold Snow Maiden appears, the area within 100 kilometers around her will fall into an eternal blizzard, and the temperature will plummet instantly!】
【Ice Golems: Wherever the blizzard covers, countless Ice Golems will gradually be conceived!】
【Snow God Stance: Can obtain powerful Snow God power after activation!】
Su Yi looked down at the little loli curled up in front of him, his fingers resting gently on his chin in thought.
This was the first time he had fused a monster that appeared in human form, so he was inevitably a little curious.
Meanwhile, the 【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】 slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of light blue pupils.
She slowly stretched her body, ice crystals shimmering with a faint yet charming light between her eyelashes.
The moment she stepped barefoot onto the snow, the entire mountain range seemed to be awakened, emitting a low roar like a moving glacier.
Immediately after, a violent wind howled, a blizzard descended suddenly, and the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly.
Even though Su Yi had many purple pieces of equipment providing protection, he still felt a bone-chilling cold.
This extreme cold power was continuously eroding the air, and the temperature was still dropping.
At this moment, the 【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】 just stared at Su Yi quietly, neither speaking nor making any movements.
Su Yi was not surprised by this.
Judging from previous fusion experiences, these monsters, besides not being obedient, didn't have much brain power either.
"I guess she's just purely interested in me right now."
Su Yi thought to himself.
So, he couldn't help but reach out a finger and poke the 【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】's cheek.
After poking a few times, he tried pinching it and found that it felt quite soft.
After some observation, Su Yi confirmed that the 【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】 still had no reaction, just staring at him blankly.
Su Yi also understood that even fusing two purple items couldn't add any brains.
However, Su Yi made another interesting discovery—the monsters he fused were indeed much better looking than those guys from the Critical Point.
Like the mighty and domineering giant dragon from before.
And that 【Titan Flame Demon】 that was always shouting and full of fighting spirit.
And the 【Extreme Cold Snow Maiden】 in front of him, who was petite and cute, making one want to take a few more looks.
But those monsters popping out of the Critical Point were truly crooked and ugly, really not worth complimenting.
However, just at this moment, a huge figure ten meters tall suddenly appeared not far away, made entirely of ice, emitting a biting chill.
Su Yi understood at a glance; this must be the Ice Golems summoned by the Snow Maiden.
Su Yi couldn't help but feel a hint of curiosity: just how powerful is this Ice Golem?
Without waiting to think too much, Su Yi casually released a Blood Moon Slash; that dazzling moon wheel headed straight for the Ice Golem with sharp momentum.
"Boom!"
A crisp sound pierced the air, and a white mist of frost rose at the point of impact.
As the white mist gradually dissipated, the figure of the Ice Golem reappeared.
The only change was a small crack on the arm of the Ice Golem.
The Ice Golem seemed completely unaware of the attack just now, just casually touching its own head, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this scene, Su Yi fell silent.
