Although this place seems to be shrouded in strange mysteries, Sheyan and the others have only two choices at this time: to move forward or to retreat. If they want to retreat, they have to pass through the strange lake, the dead pine forest, the cold ice valley, and finally
Facing the hunt by the orcs... It is precisely because Fang Sheyan and the two of them have experienced these things personally that they know the horror and danger involved, and therefore they are absolutely unwilling to experience it again.
So the two of them made up their minds without any effort, that is, to continue moving forward. What supported them was a mentality that they had found a big bargain: no matter what kind of risks were waiting for them ahead, they would just stay one more second.
It’s also earned.
Although the two of them were powerful contractors along the way, in this world of A-level difficulty, they were suppressed to the point where they were only slightly stronger than ordinary people. At this time, they had experienced too many horrors and twists.
Apart from frightening them at first, the ice corpse on this ground could no longer confuse them any more. Liao Shi fell down on a section of pine wood and took a wine bag and weighed it in his hand, confused.
The way:
"What are these guys doing here?"
At this time, the handicraft industry was very backward, mainly because there was no plastic, so it was very troublesome to carry water during long journeys. Things like wine bags are usually divided into inner lining and outer skin, and the inner lining is mostly
It is made from the bladders of large animals (commonly known as urine cells) after a very complicated process of drying them with nitrate. The outer lining is tanned and sewn with cowhide. It can be used to hold water without leaking, so it is very valuable. It looks like a reef.
If the skin bag in my hand were taken to the elves, even if it was empty, it would have to be exchanged for two or three cows.
Fang Senyan was much more thoughtful. Although he was surrounded by mysteries one after another, he always had a vague premonition along the way, feeling that a great truth was getting closer. Such a mentality made Fang Senyan
He also became quite irritable. He picked up another wine bag and tore it open before opening his mouth to drink.
The wine was extremely strong, but the wine bag had been buried in the snow for a long time, so the wine was still cold in the mouth, and it didn't heat up until it was swallowed. The contradictory feeling of extreme cold and extreme heat is hard to describe. Liao Shi gulped it down.
After a few sips of wine, my body felt hot, and I suddenly said:
"Should we stop here and rest for a while?"
Fang Sheyan also took a few gulps of wine and said with a wry smile:
"Looking at the fate of these ice corpses, do you dare to stay here? We can be said to be quite fragile in this difficult world, and... What I am most worried about is that I am afraid that space will weaken us again soon.
!”
Reef said in shock:
"Weakened again?"
"That's right." Sheyan said with a wry smile: "There was a warning when we closed our storage space before. Whenever we stay in this world for a certain period of time, the critical point should be triggered. I estimate that we will reach it soon.
It’s time to hit the tipping point for the second time.”
Reef, who had always behaved very well, couldn't help but also cursed:
"***, will all our active abilities be sealed this time?"
Fang Sheyan said helplessly:
"The second critical point is okay, but it can be expected that the time interval between triggering the critical point will become shorter and shorter and more frequent. In the end, it is very likely that we will be directly knocked back to the ranks of ordinary people.
We will completely lose any bonus from space! At that time, without any natural or man-made disasters, the cold temperature and lack of food will become our biggest enemies, which can force us, who are unprepared, back into space."
At this time, Jiao Shi took Fang Senyan's words seriously and thought deeply:
"Then what you're saying is: we'd better find a safe and warm place before we are completely weakened by space."
Sheyan nodded and said seriously:
"That's what I mean. Even in the place where we just entered this world, although there are strong orcs and half-orcs, at least the natural environment will not be our enemy."
The two of them put aside their distracting thoughts and continued to move forward. The alcohol gradually dissipated with the flow of blood. The two of them felt warm and exhausted. After walking less than a few miles, they walked out of the pine forest.
, the valley gradually narrowed, and finally turned into a canyon. There was sparse snow scattered on the ground, and no vegetation grew. Only piles of strange rocks standing here and there could be seen, and traces of water erosion could be vaguely seen.
It seems that there must have been a flash flood when the temperature warmed up and the snow melted. If you look up and look around, you can see the surrounding cliffs. There is only a line of sky running through the top, extending unyieldingly forward.
It is undoubtedly very difficult to walk in such rugged terrain. Fortunately, Sheyan and Sheyan still have various bonus abilities at this time, so even if they are walking alone, it is not difficult to adapt. For them, the road is
There is nothing special about the difficulty of walking. What is most worrying is that there is suddenly no way to go ahead. That is the most despairing thing.
Because Reef's eyesight was very strong and he was empty-handed, he always walked at the front of the team. After the two of them trudged a few hundred meters through the rocks, they were blocked by a quite high and wide rock.
This rock should be the product of a mountain collapse, blocking the entire valley. It should have rolled down from the cliff next to it. It is covered with cracks, and there is a dark gap in the lower left corner against the mountain wall.
, when I stuck my head up, I felt a cold wind blowing out of it. It was obviously very deep, but there was no hope of anyone getting in.
To continue moving forward, you still have to climb up from above. If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely have to look at the ocean and sigh, and return to the pine forest to make a ladder. But for Sheyan and Reef, who are also contractors, such a height will not be a problem for them.
.
Reef, who had better jumping ability/higher agility, started to run from a distance, then jumped high and rushed towards the giant rock, but his fingers were always still a little short of the top of the rock.
After several failed attempts, Fang Senyan stood in front of the giant rock, put his hands together like a volleyball player padding the ball, and then gave instructions to the reef. The reef rushed over at high speed and stepped on Fang Senyan's hand.
!
At this time, Sheyan pushed his hands upwards hard. His thirty-seven points of strength were already considerable, and the rock itself had good bounce ability, so he pushed upwards with a strong push, and successfully grasped the edge of the rock with both hands.
Climbed to the top of the boulder.
If it were on flat ground, there would be no problem with Reef's movement, but what he was stepping on now was Fang Senyan's hands. Even though he had been prepared, Fang Senyan was still staggered by the huge force of the counter-shock.
He fell backwards, and finally couldn't maintain his balance and fell to the ground.
As he sat down, there seemed to be a small stone under Sheyan's buttocks, which stung him painfully. Sheyan frowned, cursed angrily, then turned sideways and reached out to feel for it. In the end, he pulled out a small stone the size of a table tennis ball.
He was about to throw the black stone away when he suddenly felt something was wrong: How could this stone be so light? Why were there a few fresh cracks on the surface? Could it be that the stone even cracked when he sat down on it?
?
Fang Senyan's curiosity became more and more unstoppable, and he immediately studied the "stone" carefully. Only then did he realize that the appearance of this thing did indeed resemble a round black stone, but it was much lighter. Its surface was actually a layer of extremely
A hard shell. After breaking open along the cracks on the shell, the inner wall turned out to be slightly litchi red. In the center of the shell, there was a cyan core, and the surface of the core was slightly green.
What’s even more amazing is that the wrinkles on its inner layer actually grow into rays of light, and the overall look is like the scorching sun in the sky! In an inconspicuous “stone”, a world of its own is actually formed.
Such visions make people feel astonished and sigh in admiration of the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.
For some reason, Sheyan always felt that something was missing after seeing that "stone", as if he were seeing an extremely beautifully painted figure, but that figure was missing the most important eyes.
generally.
Just as he was studying this strange thing, Sheyan suddenly felt dizzy, and a loud shout came from the other side! Then it stopped abruptly, and there was no sound again.
Fang Senyan jumped up suddenly as if he had been stabbed by a needle. The shouting was clearly from the reef. Is there any great danger on the other side? He immediately stood up and shouted loudly, hoping to understand what happened ahead.
It's a pity that there was a huge wall-like stone standing in front of him. Although Sheyan was so anxious that his voice almost became hoarse from shouting, there was no response from the other side. He tried to contact through the team's communication channel, but still no response.
Gain!
What kind of danger would it take for a powerful MT like Reef to evaporate without even being able to issue a warning???
The empty valley is silent, and there is deathly silence all around. Only the echo of Sheyan's previous shouts is still faintly heard. The air around seems to be completely frozen. In such a depressing and lonely environment, people's negative emotions will be maximized, and
However, there is still no way to vent, and no one to talk to. If you are mentally fragile, you will probably commit suicide in despair and terror!
However, Sheyan was originally a very determined person, and since he could return to space at any time, he was naturally able to control his emotions quite well. Therefore, after confirming that an unimaginable accident had indeed occurred on the other side, he quickly left.
He hugged the still unconscious elf girl and retreated to a place with a wide view.
