Ares and Alfred lamented silently.

How wasteful is it to use energy for warmth! How wasteful!

Ares and Alfred barely had enough energy to use for battles.

Naturally, they could not bear to waste it on warming themselves.

Without the frost constraining them, they were able to move much faster.

One hour later, Zeke suddenly stopped. “Wait.”

The rest immediately stopped in their tracks and asked warily, “What is it, Great Marshal?”

Zeke asked, “Does the shadow walk with its legs, Sole Wolf?”

Sole Wolf was amused. “What are you thinking about? It floats above the ground.”

A contemplative look crossed Zeke's face. “I see... There's someone else here other than the shadow and Aksel.”

Someone else?

The three of them were puzzled. “How would you know, Great Marshal?”

Zeke pointed to the ground. “Look.”

They glanced over and saw three icy “shells” standing on the ground.

Those three icy “shells” were identical to those left behind by Alfred and Ares after they warmed their legs.

They could not help but tense up. “Who else would appear in this barren land?”

Zeke said, “They left footprints, so let's follow the trail.”

They headed off in the direction of the tracks.

Luckily, it aligned with the direction in which the shadow was heading toward.

Hence, they just needed to walk in one direction instead of splitting up.

In the evening, the shadow and Aksel stopped to rest.

Zeke and the rest stopped as well.

The scenery was completely white, with the snowy mountains surrounding them.

The snow on the ground was one meter thick.

As they were hiding underneath the snow, they were not worried that the shadow and Aksel would discover them.

Sole Wolf located their coordinates using the radio waves and reported to Zeke, “We're less than a hundred kilometers away from the borders of the North base. Are they really going to our base?”

Zeke said, “That's highly possible. Of course, they might be trying to cross the borders too. That would mean that they're collaborating with foreign forces.”

Sole Wolf asked, “Should I notify the soldiers in the North and ask them to prepare for battle? That'll prevent the shadow and Aksel from trespassing the borders.”

After some deliberation, Zeke nodded. “Sure.”

Sole Wolf turned on their radio to do as told.

However, the moment he switched it on, they received radio waves from another source.

The signal was a bit messy and the voice was discordant.
