The process of walking on the ice abyss is actually quite difficult, even for ascendants. Although it cannot be said to be difficult, it can still be called hard work.
Walking down from the hills to the gentle ice field, the wind and snow are still raging, but it is slightly gentler than at high places. Compared with the surrounding ice cliffs and countless ravines and deep valleys, the ice field is made of pure ice.
It is composed of a shell, and the terrain is low and flat. Because of the low temperature of dozens of degrees below zero, ordinary ice is as hard as steel.
But the strange thing is that on such a flat and solid ice sheet, there are one, two, or even many huge ice leaks and ice holes from time to time, leading straight into the deep and dark underground. At first glance, you don’t notice it, but the more you stare into its depths, the more you understand.
It's dizzying.
No one can figure out how these holes are formed and why they are so smooth and flat.
If he fell into it, it would be easy to say that Yin En had fairy wings, but Isengard and Master Gosei would definitely be doomed - Yin En would not be able to carry someone out of such a smooth and solid ice cave.
But in the process of crossing this dangerous ice field, Isengard reported an unexpected piece of information to Yin En that he had not discovered.
"You mean, there are some huge steel structures under these glaciers that are releasing heat... Those caves on the ice sheets are melted by the heat released by the steel structures?"
It's not that Yin En doesn't believe Ethan.
The growth of the other party along the way is also visible to the naked eye. This young master of the Ellen family is now strong enough and has enough will to push his strength to fight, becoming Yin En's comrade in battle, instead of being a burden to be protected.
.
However, after he seriously used the perception range of the extended precognition horizon and added the silver chip perception, he was surprised to find that at least 1,200 meters below the glacier... there was actually Isengard.
The huge structure you are talking about!
"I'm not lying! Even the steel structures are very strange. Each one is as square as a big coffin, releasing boiling heat. It looks quite scary..."
At first, Isengard was still a little proud, but then his tone became lower and lower, seeming a little uneasy: "This place is really weird, Yin En, Teacher Gosei doesn't have instinctive source of body protection now, so he always relies on potions.
Holding on is not an option... let's get out of here quickly?"
Isengard relies on his own blood to instinctively sense heat, and he can detect some subtle temperature changes under the glacier. Although Yin En can also detect it, only the numbers on the silver chip fluctuate slightly, which is within the normal error range.
The range of precognitive vision is not very large, so he needs to use the method of convergence to actively perceive it to barely be able to sense the huge steel structure at the bottom of the glacier.
"It's just a heat conductor. This is not a strange thing. It just proves my guess again."
Thinking in his mind, Yin En stared at the ice under his feet - it seems that the relics Ice Abyss here should have been a huge natural underground cavity in the past, which was transformed into a huge cooling reservoir by pre-era civilization.
But suddenly one day, the cooling water that was supposed to be transported from the fusion power station stopped flowing in. Only the ordinary water flowing in from the seawater condensed into ice here, forming an ice abyss... until now.
But even so, part of the heat dissipation structure is still operating. The steel conducts heat, causing hot air to continuously flow out from the bottom of the ice layer and pass into the ice abyss, forming ice, snow and wind, and causing the ice abyss to dissolve and solidify, causing each and every one of them.
Deep ice caves and ice caves.
After thinking about this, Yin En couldn't help but nod - Isengard's suggestion was right. Whether it was for Master Gosei's own safety or for his own safety, it was the best idea to leave this place. If everything was as he thought, then the strange things in the ice abyss would
The reason why the cliffs and rugged ice walls are formed may be that the ice sheets here collapse and break again and again, melting and condensing intermittently.
There may be Eternal Ice Land, but so what if they find it? They don't intend to settle here.
And just when Yin En praised Isengard a few words and told him that if there is another abnormal situation like now, he must tell him as soon as possible.
Suddenly, both of them heard violent explosions coming from deep in the ice field in the distance.
"...The sound of alchemical artillery?"
Both of them were a little shocked, and looked at each other. Then they made up their minds and walked quickly in the direction of the explosion without saying a word.
There are also differences in the sounds of alchemy cannons. They can all hear that there are two types of sounds in this series of cannons.
One is the Central Empire's latest alchemical artillery...and the other is.
It is the Canaan Moorish standard artillery used by pirates!
However, Yin En and Ethan, who rushed over quickly, wanted to understand why the artillery of the Empire and Canaan Moore fired in coordination, as if they were joining forces to fight the enemy.
Yin En was the first to see two fast-moving black spots escaping on the snowy hills not far away.
"You take care of Master Gesai, and I'll go check on the situation."
Yin En handed Master Gosei on his back to Isengard, who readily agreed: "Be careful."
And when Yin En accelerated and used the fairy wings to fly across a long distance and land directly in front of the two black spots, the two fleeing people had no intention of attacking. They just rolled over and looked at them in horror.
The 'monster' suddenly appeared in front of me.
However, when they saw Yin En's appearance and confirmed that it was not an illusion, they immediately stepped forward and shouted happily.
"Guide!" "Guide, are you not dead?"
Apart from the merchants in Harrison Port and the cities in Nanling, the only people who would call Yin En a guide were members of the exploration team.
"Lan Fan? And you...aren't you Ethan's bodyguard?"
Yin Endingqing took a look and was surprised to realize that the other party was actually an acquaintance - one of the other party was the skinny shellfish captain on the exploration ship, and was also the first explorer to discover the shimmering crystal shell, while the other was simply
One of Isengard's two Ascended Guards.
Both of them were covered in frozen blood and had many wounds on their bodies, but fortunately they were not infected by the brain-eating worms. Such minor injuries were nothing to the Ascended Ones.
"What's going on? Isn't there a fighting over there?"
Yin En did not put down his weapon, and still held the Chongyuan Iron Sword tightly in his hand. He frowned and asked the two of them. Although the two of them did not know that Yin En took Isengard and left the exploration ship, he drove the armor to kill the great shaman.
Although he knew that the young man in front of him was not weak in strength.
Especially for the latter, Isengard's guards knew very well that Yin En was a 'genius' who could kill all the natives in a whole team of fire weapons with an ordinary fine iron sword.
So in order to prevent his temporary companions from making mistakes in this operation, he spoke first and gave an overview of the current situation.show_htm3();
