Different races had different habits.

It was human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages as well as to use natural terrain as a refuge. This was something that was practically rooted in the human gene!

The foreign races would likely move away as soon as possible in such terrain and would never have thought that there would be a place to rest under the snowy weather.

Su Mo was afraid that he would scare them.

Every time he took two steps, he would carefully observe the surrounding.

‘These people surely would never know someone is slowly sneaking up to them in this snowy weather. They must be really confident.’

Su Mo descended to less than 500 meters away from them, but there was not a single person standing guard for their little territory, which was surprising to him.

After he realized that he was cautiously fighting against nothing, he was slightly relieved, and he began to take bolder steps. He also made sure that there were no ambush or traps set around the area.

He was able to descend down without much trouble.

Su Mo planted his feet on the ground and stood firmly on the platform, and it made a slight pop sound.

The sound was not loud, especially with the roaring wind between the valleys. It was not easy to notice from ten meters away.

He was not in a hurry to move around and cautiously lay down on the spot. Then, he began to slowly observe the human traces that were left on the platform.

‘On the edge of the stone platform, there are hardly any traces of friction.

‘They must not have been here for a long time. It’s likely that they found this terrain that was advantageous to avoid the disaster and chose to camp here.

‘Huh? There is even transplanted soil here. Could it be that they were trying to use this platform to grow crops?’

To the side of the platform, there was a large area of transplanted soil under the snow which was very eye-catching.

Su Mo also noticed that there was a soft ladder made of vines that hung down the side of the platform.

Beside the ladder were looming footprints that had not completely disappeared!

‘Size 44. It should be a man. The sole pattern is very rough and out of shape. It must be handmade and used specifically as an anti-slip shoe in the snow.

‘According to the snowfall and the depth of the footprints, this person weighs between 90 and 120 pounds. He most likely isn’t very strong in combat.

‘Based on the distance between the footprints, the height of this person is likely to be between 172 to 180cm.”

Su Mo was able to observe four to five pieces of information just by one simple footprint.

This was a skill taught to him by Li Hu, and now he had mastered it as one of his survival skills.

‘This height and weight mean that he likely has nutrition deficiency.’

‘Living in such a place, it seems that the living standard of these people in this gathering place is now very healthy. It’s far behind than the basin!’

Su Mo secretly thought to himself after observing the area.

After this period of abundant resources in supply, coupled with a lot of physical work every day, the basin’s residents were basically exercising every day, and their physical fitness improved as each day passed.

The thin men in the past now weighed more than 140 pounds, and the stronger ones were about 160 to 170 pounds.

The fragile women also began to have strong arms, and all of them maintained their weight above 110 pounds.

Su Mo already could predict the strength of the people in this gathering place despite not seeing them in person yet.

‘Should I wait for the team or should I go check it out myself?’

Su Mo pondered about it for a while.

He continued to lie on the side of the platform and observe, then decided that he would act alone.

Those who were skilled were also bold with their decisions.

Su Mo firmly believed that these people were not his opponent in a face-to-face battle.

More so, for humans, the moment they saw the face of the strongest human, “Almighty Su,” the opponent’s combat power would significantly reduce by 90%, and they might even surrender on the spot!

Su Mo glanced down the platform and ensured the ladder was not guarded.

Then, he took off his gloves and allowed his weight to slide down.

The soft ladder made of vines had many thorns frozen by the low temperature and turned into hard stubble.

Climbing up was easy with the help of the hard stubble.

Climbing down was extremely painful as the hard stubble rubbed against one’s palm.

Fortunately, Su Mo’s hands had already become tougher than they used to be. Despite the pain, apart from the white marks left on his hand, no blood was oozing out of his wounds.

Su Mo continued to slide down and observe the situation below him.

Below the stone platform, another small platform had only a thin layer of snow accumulated.

Behind the small platform, was a dark cave, and the smoke he had seen earlier came from inside.

“Cough! Cough!”

The wind direction in the mountains became faster. The wind that was blowing from the south one second ago suddenly started blowing the wind blowing from the north the next second.

Seeing the smoke suddenly come in his direction, Su Mo was unable to avoid the rushing smoke and coughed despite him reacting quickly to move out of the way.

‘F*ck!’

His cough would be barely audible if he were to have coughed on the stone platform above.

However, the sound was much clearer as he dangled above the valley. Anyone who was not deaf would definitely be able to hear the noise.

Su Mo realized that he was supposed to be quietly lurking in someone else’s territory. His scalp went numb, and he quickly glanced down to observe.

The good news was that no one in the cave had noticed that someone was climbing down the ladder.

The bad news was that two people were standing on the platform cleaning the snow, looking at him dumbfounded as if they had seen a god!
