Chapter 694 Emergency Alert
Although the frog has turned into an ice sculpture, through the ice crystals, it can be seen that its skin has turned into a eroded purple color, and its epidermis is covered with sharp protrusions, and its originally round appearance looks angular.
However, even though there was a change, it still failed to withstand the severe cold.
"Poor little guy, it's impossible to send you back again." Kasha had just put down the frog, and Kahn stomped it, and she closed her eyes and didn't see what it was going on.
Although the frog was just sleeping and did not die, how could the eroded creature let it return to nature? Besides, Kahn could not have opened a wormhole and threw it back.
"Let's go, it's just a frog. It's time for us to go to Frost Guard Fortress." As he said that, Kahn took out the black ice pendant and let the one-eyed look in the direction.
Afterwards, they came to the Frost Guard Fortress again along the rugged mountain road.
The spires of the Frost Guard Fortress rose from the ground from the ice field. The magical aurora is colorful, green, pink, and blue waves dancing in the sky that is nearly eternal. The stars here are always flashing, through the coldest and cleanest air.
The night sky here is still so beautiful, but the wounds here are the most secret.
The guards at the city gate knew them, and after meeting them, they directly let them in. Walking on the long and wide stairs, Kahn felt something strange deep in his heart.
"I always feel that it's weird here." Kasha suddenly said.
"You feel it too?" Kahn looked at her in surprise. He heard some rustling sound coming from under the ice, like a dream or a gnawing.
"Yes." Kasha looked at the battlements on the high ground and said, "The number of patrolling people on the city wall has become much smaller. Was Lisangor assassinated or sent someone out to fight?"
"I don't know." Kahn shook his head: "But it shouldn't be Lisanzhuo's assassination, so we should strengthen the defense. We came a little late, Lisanzhuo should have gone to bed, and we'll go find her when she wakes up tomorrow."
They returned to the spire where they lived before. Kasha and Kahn were walking and chatting, but opened the door but unexpectedly found that the female ice warrior, Hara Han Bingpo, was also inside the tower.
"Hara?" Kasha closed the door and said hello immediately: "I didn't expect you to live here after we left."
Hara looked at her in surprise, because it sounded strange, as if she lived here to monitor them.
"When will you come back?" she asked.
"Just arrived." Kasha said with a smile: "We were discussing the bedding we had not kept for us."
"Everyone is here, no one touches them." Hala walked to the hanger, then pulled off her cloak and hung it on. Kasha noticed that her movements were a bit rough. When she turned sideways, what Kasha saw made her breath.
"What's wrong with your hand?" Kasha realized that Hara's sleeves were empty, and she had one less arm than the last time she met.
"It's cut off." Hara's answer was calm, as if a broken arm was as insignificant as a haircut.
"Who cut it off? Have you fought with someone else?"
Hala shook her head and said, "There was no war, I was the one who killed me."
"This..." Kasha didn't know what to say, things seemed much more complicated than she thought.
"When you are not here, something happened." Hala lowered her head, held the wound of the broken arm with her right hand, and looked at the only one Zhenbing axe left with her face. It was originally a pair of mandarin duck axes. She said, "The seal has melted, and the things that live under it are throbbing."
It turned out that when Kasha and the others left, Hala was chosen by the church and served as a member of the annual expedition, and went to the bottom of the abyss to check the seal.
Her partner was an old hero, Oral Shiquan, who had nine expeditions experience and a recruit Sigwa Bantuojian, who had no experience at once. Hara herself was sandwiched among them, with no more or less experiences. Because the ice bloodline is stronger in women's bodies, Hara became the captain of this expedition.
They climbed down, arrived at the destination without any danger, and came to the Nine Lord Hall without casualties. But just as they were checking the seal, they were attacked by the black tentacles that broke out from the ice, and Shiquan was killed by the tentacles in order to save them.
In order to pass the news to the main castle, they had to leave Shiquan's corpse below. Hala left an axe to freeze the corpse to prevent the void from eroding. But just as they climbed to the Bridge of Sorrow, a monster chased after him, which was a alien species born from Shiquan's body.
The remaining two were forced to fight against monsters on the bridge. They fought bravely and collaborated to kill the monsters. However, Hara lacked an axe and lacked combat power. During the fierce battle, his arm was pierced by the monster, and he developed the same erosion symptoms as stone fists.
In order to prevent her body from becoming a breeding ground for monsters, she asked the recruits to cut off her hands, and then crawled back to the main fort with excessive blood loss and reported the situation.
Then the entire Frost Guard Fortress was on emergency alert, and the city walls and sentries in the city were drawn to guard the main fort bridge. They monitored the abyss to prevent monsters from entering the main fort causing panic.
"So, I feel right. It turns out that the strange thing we felt when we just entered the Frost Guard Fortress was the throbbing of the monitor." Kasha frowned. The news was really terrible.
They had just found the weakness of the monitor and were not prepared for anything. The monitor was about to break the seal. She began to fall into endless worries. Do they still have the time to prepare?
"Have your matriarch found a solution?" Kahn asked.
"If the monitor wants to wake up... he needs to wait until all the icicles are broken through. Before that, we can only strengthen the seal, but strengthening the seal requires Zhenbing. The clan leader has sent someone to find someone who can make Zhenbing. But..." Hara stopped talking and sighed deeply.
"But what?" Kahn asked.
"…To be honest, even the leader of the clan is helpless. I feel that there is little hope of finding Zhen Bing."
After a brief conversation with Hara, Kahn and Kasha went upstairs with a heavy heart. The two sat next to the fire, looking at each other in silence.
"I'm afraid this world is really too late." Kasha looked at the beating flames and suddenly said, "and people don't know what ruined their homes."
Kahn also knew that nothing was useful to say at this moment, and only actions could turn the situation around.
"Go to talk to Lisangzhuo tomorrow. If she can't come up with any ideas, we will do what we want."
