Ultragene Warlord

The draconian shrugged again.
”I ’m upset and enraged that the mammoths betrayed us, but what good will those emotions do for me now? It ’s not as if they ’ll help resolve our situation. ”

”That ’s a remarkably cool-headed perspective… ”

”It ’s all thanks to the rest of you, after all, ” one of the draconian guards, who was walking back to the wall after cleaning up the battlefield, added.
”If not for your timely assistance, we would have been far more regretful of our actions.
But with the champion of mankind Zhang Lie and the members of his team, we still have a chance to turn things around. ”

The draconian continued, ”Because of the harsh conditions of the mammoths ’ world, their reproductive ability has been very limited, and there likely aren ’t even a hundred thousand mammoths.

In the past, hunting down sufficient quantities of food had always been a problem.
They might have resolved that problem with the humans and draconians ’ tactics, but there were still unavoidable losses and injuries in the process.

Another draconian added, ”The mammoths are pack creatures, and the entire herd lives together by the only volcano in their world. ”

Li Feng seemed very surprised.
”There ’s a volcano in their world? ”

”A dead one, but it still gives off some heat—and anything is better than the bitter cold elsewhere.
After the mammoths gathered there, one of their subsequent kings managed to use his authority to increase volcanic activity in the region. 

”The mammoths ’ world is trapped in eternal winter, and the volcanic region that the mammoths have developed is the only place not ravaged by ice and snow. ”

Li Feng nodded.
”That ’s what I thought! For them to be able to craft froststeel shields clearly requires a source of heat, but I didn ’t think that their forges would be powered by geothermal energy! ”

All this information could certainly be valuable, and Li Feng was very glad he had chosen to listen to the draconians ’ reports.
He asked the most important question to him.
”Where is the mammoth herd located? ”

The draconian replied, ”I could hand you a map, but it wouldn ’t be meaningful.
All their kings of the realm have the ability to shift the terrain of their world.
The current mammoth king is particularly skilled in that regard, and I expect you ’ll only encounter difficulty after difficulty searching for the mammoth herd. ”

Li Feng grew visibly exasperated.
”What? In that case, how am I supposed to find the mammoths? ”

Aerial visibility would be severely limited by the inclement weather and snow, and it would be far too difficult to conduct a proper search.

”We draconians can provide you with an approximate location.
Although the king of the realm can manipulate the terrain, it would be impossible for him to move the entire herd away on short notice.

”Head straight south once you exit the wormhole on the mammoth side.
That was how we draconians arrived in mammoth territory when we visited it as guests—if nothing has changed, that ’s where you ’ll find the mammoths! ”

”Thank you. ” While speaking with the human and draconian guards, Li Feng had finished healing his body from the injuries he had taken during the fight against the mammoth herd.
He headed straight for the wormhole.

Upon passing through, Li Feng noticed a violently cold breeze blowing toward him.
Before him was a sea of ice and snow, a blizzard forming around him.
The ground was white and frosty; all he could see was white.

”It ’s really cold! ” Li Feng ’s cells quickly acclimatized to the heat and began to warm up his body.
As a peak-grade lifeform, Li Feng was largely unaffected by the environment.
He would be able to adapt to all sorts of unusual conditions, extreme or otherwise, in a matter of moments.

Unless the temperature suddenly fell by a hundred degrees Celsius or so, no peak-grade lifeform would find it more than a minor encumbrance.

It wasn ’t that such lifeforms weren ’t able to sense the fluctuations in temperature.
In fact, they were even more sensitive to the fluctuations than most other lifeforms, but their cells were also much more easily able to deal with these phenomena.

Li Feng ’s entire body was wrapped up in white light as he headed south following the guards ’ directions.

Indeed, as the draconians had claimed, there seemed to be nothing around but snow, snow, and more snow.
Even trying to find a genetic lifeform in this landscape was difficult.

That said, there were quite a few genetic lifeforms in this world, most of whom were particularly strong thanks to their having to survive such terrible living conditions.

Li Feng encountered quite a number of snow-capped hills He flew directly over the shorter ones, and, rather than waste time traversing the taller ones, destroyed them with a few bursts of his light-attuned techniques.

He quickly encountered a valley that seemed considerably warmer than elsewhere.
A small, golden mountain appeared before him.

The mountain suddenly spoke: ”You ’re here. ”

Li Feng glanced at the mountain more carefully, only to realize that it was an eight-meter-tall mammoth.

Li Feng responded, ”I ’m here. ”

”You shouldn ’t have come. ”

Li Feng thought for a moment before countering, ”Why did you come? ”

The golden mammoth: ???

He responded, ”The king of the realm sent me over. ”

Li Feng commented, ”With that sort of opening remark, you must have read quite a few wuxia novels… ”

The golden mammoth sighed.
”I had quite a few human friends, from whom I learned about the fascinating history of your culture.
In order to hear more stories about these ancients, I would frequently head to the draconian world and exchange my froststeel for these tales. ”

Li Feng sucked in a deep breath.
A mammoth who was a wuxia fanatic…?

The golden mammoth continued, ”I ’ve learned so much from you humans that I don ’t want to be on bad terms with them.
If you turn around and leave now, I can pretend that I ’ve never seen you. ”

Li Feng chuckled coldly.
”You don ’t want to be on bad terms with us humans? You invaded human territory! ”

The golden elephant raised his head to the sky.
”It ’s true.
For the good of our race, for our survival, we had no other choice. ”

”You can also pretend that you never saw me. ”

”I ’m afraid that, if I were to let you pass, you would wreak havoc and destruction on us mammoths. ”

”In that case, there ’s nothing to discuss. ” Genetic energy exploded from Li Feng ’s body, and white light shot forth.

Meanwhile, the golden mammoth pulled out a blade crafted from froststeel, about the size of a doorframe.
”This blade of froststeel is eight meters long and imbued with hoargold.
It weighs ten thousand kilograms! ”

Ten thousand kilograms…?! Li Feng ’s eyes widened.
