Amelia was having a headache over the current situation.

Mike said, “In the past, I encountered similar enemies in the castles of the northern region. They were many Castle Lords of the Alliance of Gods. They relied on this method to select their immediate superiors. Although this group of small nobles is somewhat different from those outlaws, the teams selected by strength be firm temporarily. I don’t want them to be firm for too long. Three months will be enough. By then, everything will be settled.”

Akali asked, “Oh right, you, why did you organize them into teams?”

Mike looked at Akari and said with a smile, “I want to show them the scenery of the Dark Continent.”

Akari’s expression changed slightly. She asked, “Are you going to bring them into the Frost Forest?”

Mike nodded.

Amelia quickly said, “Mike, I have to remind you that the weather in the Frost Forest is very bad. Even our local powerhouses have a hard time adapting to the weather in the Frost Forest. It’s too dangerous for you to go in like this.”

Mike smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern, senior. I will only bring them around the periphery. I am still aware of my own capabilities. I will not put myself and my team members in a dangerous situation.”

Akari saw Mike’s persistence and nodded immediately. She took out something from her interspatial ring and handed it to Mike.

“Since you insist on entering the Frost Forest, Mike, it’s not easy for us to stop you. However, please promise us one thing, Mike. If you’re in danger, you must shatter it immediately so that we can send people to support you.”

Mike nodded. He looked at the two of them and said, “Thank you for your efforts, seniors. Don’t worry, I will be careful.”

Then, the two of them turned around and left.

After the two of them left, Mike gathered all his team members and brought them to the small town at the edge of the Frost Forest.

After Mike took them to book an inn, he brought them to the border of the Frost Forest.

Mike pointed at the forest behind him and said, “Do you see? Behind you is the famous high-level Frost Forest. It is said that the number and strength of the magical beasts inside are as high as those in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. It is your next teacher. You will spend half of the next three months in there.”

Mike had just finished speaking when a youth raised his hand.

“Excuse me, Captain Mike, have you done any safety measures?”

Mike smiled disdainfully and then shook his head.

Two more exclamations came from the crowd.

The youth looked at Mike and said, “Is this murder?”

Mike nodded and said, “You can interpret it this way. You can also report me to His Majesty the Dark Lord, but only if you can live until then.”

The youth immediately fell silent. It was obvious that they did not want to annoy Mike now.

Mike looked at the group of youths in front of him and said, “Listen well. You are about to enter the Frost Forest, and I will go with you. However, I do not have the obligation to protect all of you. That is the first point. Secondly, each of you must stay inside for a period of time. I will supervise you to complete your daily training plan. If you can’t complete it, I will throw you deeper into this forest.”

A youth muttered in a low voice:

“What a devil.”

Mike stared at him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He said, “So you’re an angel? Then, little brother Angel, you and your teammates should collectively lie down. Work together and perform divine power support, 10,000 times.”

The so-called divine power support was to use one’s own divine power to support a huge rock. Like a push-up, one would lift the huge rock up and then drop it, doing a total of 10,000 times.

An ordinary high-level soldier could do it 5,000 times, while their group of youths could do it 7,000 times. On average, the youths from the Dark Continent could do it 10,000 times.

Just like that, Mike supervised the group of youths to complete the 10,000 divine power support. After letting them rest for a while, he brought them into the Frost Forest.

The youths entered the Frost Forest from different directions. Almost every one of their faces carried grief and indignation, as if there was something they hated waiting for them up ahead.

As Shawk walked through the forest, a teenager walked to his side and said, “This Mike really has a problem with his brain. He’s leaving us nobody’s here to kill off ten high-level magical beasts in one and a half months. That’s just murder, right?”

Shawk’s expression was also very ugly. He berated the teenager for a while and then began to search for magical beasts himself.

Time passed slowly. The youths either killing or was being chased by magical beasts every day. Every few days, they would gather together and let them recover their mental strength, then, Mike would supervise them to complete the training plan. After a few days, the youths would once again enter the forest and repeat the battle with the magical beasts. This training method required a lot of pressure, but they also gained a lot of experience. Under this pressure, the divine power of the teenagers began to grow like a rocket. What made Mike most happy was that?some of the teenagers in the teams had gradually developed feelings for each other. The estrangement between the commoners and the nobles seemed to have faded between them.

This was what Mike was looking forward to the most. He also hoped that more people would be able to obtain this kind of camaraderie.

Mike looked at the first team that had returned from a distance, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. When that team of people arrived in front of Mike, Mike quickly put on a stern face, looking like an instructor.

The sun gradually set in the west. 15 teams had returned, but there were still 5 teams that had not returned. What was most worrying was that these 5 teams all went into the Frost Forest from the same direction, but none of them had returned. That was enough to explain the problem.

“The Butler is leading the team in the north. He’s usually the most conservative and steady, but he hasn’t returned yet...”

Mike frowned. Looking at the setting sun, he said resolutely, “Everyone, follow me immediately. We’ll go look for them.”

Everyone began to wail, but they followed Mike. They were worried as well.

Mike walked at the front. He widened his eyes and saw through the layers of wind and snow that blocked his vision, searching for the figures of the group of youths.

However, he could not find a single youth.

Suddenly, Mike lowered himself to the ground and used his face to gently feel the earth.

The earth was shaking slightly, the frequency of the shaking was very chaotic. This feeling was familiar to Mike, just like the large-scale migration of magical beasts that he had seen in the forest outside of Blackstone City!
