Chapter 868: Chapter 868

The entire Antarctica Continent, covered by ice and snow throughout the year, is devoid of any vegetation, and animals are extremely rare, especially in the inland regions, where nothing but ice and snow can be seen as if one has entered an endless white desert.

After disembarking, Fang Bai separated from the others. Once he reached the uninhabited area, he took out a map of the Antarctica Continent to confirm the general location of Mount Vinson, then shed the thick cotton coat he wore and, clad in only a light casual shirt, began to traverse the landscape with his movement technique.

The tourists who visit the Antarctica Continent for fun and exploration wear cotton coats to keep out the cold. Fang Bai didn’t want to stand out or attract attention, so he wore one when he came. However, it would be a burden during his rapid movement if he didn’t take it off.

The place where Fang Bai disembarked was over two thousand li away from Mount Vinson. This distance, along with the harsh environment and the widespread ice and snow, would take ordinary people several months to traverse.

However, for Fang Bai, these disadvantageous factors were not an issue. He moved like the wind, covering great distances with incredible speed, truly embodying "traverse a thousand li in one day."

If it weren’t for the need to conserve some True Yuan for unexpected situations, Fang Bai could move even faster.

The Antarctica Continent has periods of polar day and polar night, and it was just at the start of a polar day period, meaning that for the next half-year, there would be daylight across the continent with no night.

With Fang Bai’s exceptionally strong vision, polar day or polar night made no difference, though daytime was somewhat more convenient than nighttime.

Fang Bai traveled and rested intermittently, and after one day’s time, he had entered the interior of the Antarctica Continent.

That day, as Fang Bai crossed over a mountain range, he found bloodstains in the snow. He could determine that they were human blood, and that they had been left not long ago.

Those who could reach the interior of the Antarctica Continent were definitely not tourists; it was very likely to be an expedition team or a scientific research team.

Fang Bai frowned and immediately sent his divine consciousness in all directions. Very soon, he discovered that a research team of about twenty people was under attack by a pack of white wolves several li away.

Seeing the pack of white wolves, with bodies as large as cows and covered in white fur, Fang Bai couldn’t help but marvel at the unusual sight.

Fang Bai knew that the main animals on the Antarctica Continent were penguins and seals; these white wolves were unheard of. It seemed that this mysterious continent indeed harbored many unknowns.

Several members of the research team had already perished, and their bodies had become a feast for the wolves. Fortunately, the remaining team members had taken shelter in several snow vehicles they had brought, avoiding immediate danger for the time being.

However, the white wolves were extremely fierce, ramming their bodies against the snow vehicles. Their impact was incredibly powerful, causing the sturdy vehicles to shake continuously under their relentless assault, with one even overturning, sending cries of shock and occasional painful groans from inside, as if someone was injured.

The Antarctica Continent, untouched by human destruction, can be said to be the last pure land in this world. As such, the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy here is much richer than in other places. These white wolves, nourished by Heaven and Earth Origin Energy, were born with bodies as strong as metal and were extraordinarily fierce. In Fang Bai’s view, their attack power was comparable to that of a Yellow Level Martial Artist from the Ancient Martial World.

A single white wolf might not be too fearsome, but a group of several dozen or even hundreds gathered together was truly frightening.

In the blink of an eye, another snow vehicle was overturned, its door deformed by the impact and on the verge of opening.

If Fang Bai hadn’t passed by here, it might not have taken long for all twenty-plus members of the research team to fall prey to the white wolves.

Although Fang Bai had urgent matters to attend to, he wasn’t heartless and couldn’t stand by and watch people die. Therefore, he employed his movement technique with full force and rushed toward the research team.

In the distance of several li, Fang Bai arrived at the scene in the blink of an eye, and just then, the door of an overturned snow vehicle was bashed open, and a member of the research team tumbled out. Two nearby white wolves saw the opportunity and savagely pounced toward them.

With no time to rescue, Fang Bai immediately let out a loud shout.

In his roar, he channeled a strand of Chaos Origin Energy, using the "Lion’s Roar Sonic Wave," targeting directly at the two white wolves.

The speed of the sound’s propagation was incredibly fast, and before the two white wolves could reach the exploratory team members who had tumbled out of the snow vehicle, they were enveloped by the sonic blast released by Fang Bai. They were shaken until they bled from their seven orifices and fell to the ground unconscious.

Seeing this, the other white wolves stopped their attack on the exploratory team and looked towards Fang Bai, who had issued the roar.

Seizing the opportunity of the white wolves’ halted attack, Fang Bai moved like lightning, rushing into the pack of wolves, unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks.

Although the white wolves had copper-like skin and iron-like bones, fierce in the extreme, they met their match in Fang Bai.

Under Fang Bai’s strikes, one after another, the bodies of the white wolves were sent flying into the air before crashing down onto the icy snow, their internal organs shattered by the impact, dying on the spot.

In just a few minutes time, nearly a hundred white wolves present were all slain by Fang Bai, not one escaping.

From Fang Bai’s arrival to the killing of all the white wolves, the entire process was so brief that when he killed the last white wolf, the team members hiding in the snow vehicles were still dumbfounded, still in shock.

"Alright, it’s safe now!"

Fang Bai dusted a few white wolf hairs off his palms and walked up to the snow vehicles’ doors, opening them as he spoke.

The exploratory team members were composed of scientists from various countries, including Black, White, and Asian individuals. On their faces, some still wore expressions of fear, while others showed the relief of having survived a disaster.

"This gentleman... are you Chinese?"

A young Chinese exploratory team member looked at Fang Bai with a mix of awe and tentative respect, carefully asking.

The performance Fang Bai had just given had deeply shocked this young Chinese exploratory team member, reminding him of the superheroes from movies and television.

The terrifying white wolves that could knock over snow vehicles weighing thousands of pounds stood no chance against Fang Bai’s punches and kicks, demonstrating how powerful Fang Bai was. This extraordinary strength was beyond ordinary imagination, no wonder the young Chinese team member regarded him as a superhero.

"Yes, I come from China!"

Fang Bai nodded to the Chinese team member, responding with a smile. He was pleased to meet a compatriot here.

"My name is Sun Hu. May I boldly ask, sir, what is your name?"

The excited exploratory team member named Sun Hu asked, thinking that if he could get to know such a superhuman hero, this Antarctic expedition would be worth it.

"My name is not convenient to disclose to you,"

Fang Bai said with a smile.

Sun Hu appeared a bit disappointed and was about to ask something else when another team member called out to him in broken Chinese, "Sun, Logan is badly hurt. Come and see him quick!"

Sun Hu, both a member and medic of the exploratory team, hurriedly turned to tend to his American colleague Logan, who had been injured.
