Chapter 698 A coal in a cold weather

At this moment, Leo, Elmont, and Osborne had stopped moving and gathered together under a part of a tree where there were a lot of branches and thick enough leaves to cover them from the snowstorm. 

"Are they perhaps planning to freeze us all to death?!" Leo expressed his thoughts.

From thunderstorms, it soon after became a snowstorm. The effect of these two phenomena combined altogether is extreme coldness. It is like drenching oneself with water and then afterward walking into the snow. 

The body being drenched with water has already caused one\'s own body temperature to go down. And to make matters even more worst, they were soon after exposed to something even more, colder, which further lowered one\'s own body temperature. 

If this continues, it would only take some time before they finally freeze to death, just as Leo had thought. 

Shivering from the cold, Osborne asked, "Your Highness, Elmont, does being one of the hosts of the Emerald Elven Battle Competition before allow you a perk of knowing the obstacles in advance?" 

"I\'m afraid not," Elmont shook his head while his arms were now crossed between his chest due to the cold. But he quickly added, "But I am guessing that the reason for this second obstacle is because there is still no one that got eliminated,"

Although Princess Tifa and Princess Tila had reduced the size of the map by twenty-five square kilometers, causing the map to only have seventy-five square kilometers remaining, it was still big enough nonetheless for twenty-five players to move around the place without encountering other players. 

In addition to that, because of the thunderstorm, the majority of the players were unable to travel a large distance, unlike Leo, Elmont, and Osborne. This further causes them to not be able to find other players. 

Evidently, this only means to say that Princess Tifa and Princess Tila\'s first obstacle had backfired on them. And in order to fix this problem, they decided to choose snowstorms as the second obstacle, hoping to eliminate players through natural phenomena.

Hearing Elmont\'s words, Osborne immediately realized the direness of their current situation. He hastily exclaimed, "This is extremely bad! We need to look for a good place to hide ourselves from the cold, or at least somewhere that could lower the cold we are experiencing right now. Otherwise, it would be possible for us to be eliminated due to getting frostbite all over our body, or worst, just like what Guild Leader Loki had just said, freeze to death,"

"I agree, but the question is, where exactly can we hide?" Leo asked as he turned to look at Elmont for suggestions. The latter has already shown how good he is at explaining things. And maybe from his explanation alone, another similar situation as before would repeat once again where Osborne would find a solution to their problem. 

As if understanding what Leo wanted him to do, Elmont didn\'t hesitate to shake his head and reply, "Don\'t look at me like that! I also don\'t have any idea about dealing with snowstorms. As a matter of fact, I haven\'t even experienced a snowstorm in the Emerald Tree Kingdom in the past. Our geographic location apparently prevents us from having one,"

With that being said, Leo could only heave a sigh of helplessness. Though he had gone through many challenges in the past during his training as an assassin in the Mischievous Lion organization, including surviving in snowstorms, that only allows him to know the basic knowledge about dealing with snowstorms. The reason for that is because the only part where there are snowstorms in the Lionheart Kingdom is in the Crystal Skull City and Snow City, which both are located in the northern region. In contrast, the Mischievous Lion organization has mainly done their operation in the southern region, which mostly consist of deserts, beaches, flatlands, valleys, canyons, forests, and mountain area. In other words, none of them involved an extremely cold environment.

Since neither Leo, Elmont, and Osborne are equipped with sufficient knowledge to deal with their current problem, they could only choose to learn as they go and adapt using whatever things around them.

All of a sudden, though, before they could even plan on what next course of action they should take, they saw two bright lights slowly coming in their direction. 

There was no need to ask because those lights are obviously players approaching them right now!

Thinking about it now, they have actually already crossed a lot of distance from that hour of continuous travel back then. So, it is only natural for them to finally encounter other players.

"I\'ll go and do some recon on those lights while the two of you hide and make sure they cannot see you," Leo informed Elmont and Osborne, as the two nodded their heads in understanding. 

In the next moment, Leo used the cover of the snow to slowly approach the two sources of light from the side.

Not long after, Leo finally notices that the lights are actually coming from torches that the two Elf race players are holding in their hands. He really thought at first that they were using some kind of Magic spell that could create light. It turns out that it was just something simple. 

However, that wasn\'t the important thing that he had discovered. To his delight, the two players are actually wearing animal fur clothing, which, if his memory serves him correctly, are suitable for weather such as snowstorms. That is because it is strongly resistant to cold and could provide warmth to its wearer. 

Seeing this, Leo felt like being given coal in cold weather. As long as they could have these pieces of coal, their problem with the snowstorm could be minimized. 

The only problem remaining, though, is how they can eliminate these two players? 

Basing on the fact alone that all the players in the Survival Games are the strongest members of their respective teams, then they should expect already that these two players aren\'t going to be easy targets. 

Fortunately for them, these two players are still oblivious that there are other players nearby them. As such, it is possible to launch an ambush. Not only that, they are outnumbered as there are three of them in their alliance while they are only two players. 

"Prepare for an ambush," Leo quickly informed Elmont and Osborne through the communicator after he finished analyzing the situation.
