Chapter 27: Fortress

Two days later, Asia and the United States, northwest region.

The cold wind is howling, and everything you see is pure white. This is the world of snow, in the northwest.

Su Xiao has been heading northwest for two days. There is no road here at all. The road has long been covered with snow. She can only identify the direction based on the map and compass.

Su Xiao was sitting on a snow sledge. Needless to say, the person pulling the sledge was of course the miserable Bu Bu Wang.

At first, Bu Bu Wang refused. In Bu Bu Wang’s words: ‘It’s too much to ride on me, but now you want me to pull the cart? Impossible!”

When Su Xiao took out a pair of size 45 slippers, Bubu Wang took the initiative to run to the snow sledge.

The sledge left two traces on the snow and then passed by silently. The only sound was the crunch of the snow in front of it.

If Su Xiao wants to reach her destination, she will need to travel for at least three days, and there will be snow everywhere along the way.

The weather is very sunny, there is no snow in the northwest today, but Su Xiao would rather it snows here.

It would be too cold without snow. The current temperature has reached minus 45 degrees, and spitting in the air will freeze into a lump of ice.

People who live in warm climates have a misconception that snowy days are colder. This is actually wrong.

It's not cold when it snows. It's bitterly cold when the wind blows after the snow stops.

The north wind howled, and the snow on the ground was blown all over the sky. The cold wind instantly penetrated the leather clothes and gradually took away Su Xiao's temperature.

Although Su Xiao's physical strength attribute is 35 points, he is unable to withstand the cold climate. He is still too small under the power of nature.

Tightening her winter clothes, Su Xiao felt drowsy.

"Bubu, stop."

Su Xiao jumped off the snow sledge, took out an iron plate, and lit a fire on the iron plate.

The cold had receded a bit, and Su Xiao was warming herself by the fire when the wind around her suddenly stopped.

The sky became extremely clear and cloudless.

Under the sunlight, Su Xiao didn't feel any temperature, but felt cold all over her body.

"This kind of weather..."

Su Xiao jumped onto the snow sledge, and Bu Bu Wang looked confused at this moment.

"Run as fast as you can, which way you want to run!"

Su Xiao's expression was not very good. He recalled an experience in an extremely cold area.

It is never a good thing when the wind suddenly stops and the weather suddenly becomes clear.

Although the current snow scene is beautiful, Su Xiao is not in the mood to appreciate it because a snowstorm is coming.

Please do not underestimate blizzards. Blizzards on snowfields are as dangerous as storms on the sea.

Bubu Wang ran forward at full speed, and Su Xiao kept observing the changes in the weather.

Snowflakes drifted vaguely from the sky, just a small amount at first. After brewing for a few minutes, heavy snowflakes drifted over.

Woo~.

A cold wind suddenly appeared, and the drifting snow was blown in one direction.

The blizzard really came. After Su Xiao discovered this, he untied the noose on Bubotney and gave up the snow sledge. This thing had no use in the blizzard.

The strong wind slapped the snowflakes on her face, and the cold snowflakes gradually turned into snow water, like a greedy insect, taking away any trace of Su Xiao's body temperature.

The sky and the earth became completely white, and the visible distance was no more than five meters.

It is difficult to walk on the snow. Although the temperature is not low now, the temperature after the snowstorm will be extremely low.

Su Xiao's face is not very pretty, but Bubuwang is extremely cheerful. Its hair can resist the cold, and it likes snow.



Five hours later, in a vast white plain.

boom.

A fist broke through the snow, and Su Xiao climbed out of the snowdrift with difficulty, shaking the snow off her head.

The blizzard was not enough to bury him, but the avalanche could. After the blizzard ended, the surrounding snow mountains became very fragile, and the slightest sound would trigger an avalanche. Bubotney barked, and then the avalanche collapsed.

Su Xiao patted the snow on her head and exhaled a white breath.

"Bubu."

After Su Xiao's shout, there was silence on the snow.

After a while, the snow not far from Su Xiao moved, and he immediately stepped forward.

After digging into the snow for a while, he saw BooBoo Wang's tail. BooBoo Wang was leaning downwards, and he was still digging downwards.

Being buried in heavy snow, the scary thing is not the cold, but the sense of disorientation.

Many travelers who were buried in the snow died in the snow. It was impossible to judge up and down in the snow. If the victims were unlucky, they would dig downwards.

This is not a ridiculous thing, such cases are common in the real world.

There is a simple way to solve this situation, and that is to spit.

You can judge which direction is directly above based on the direction in which the spit is falling, and use this to escape from the snow.

Su Xiao grabbed Bu Bu Wang's hind legs and pulled Bu Bu Wang out of the snow like a carrot.

One person and one dog began to walk hard in the snow, walking in waist-deep snow. If they were unlucky, they would disappear with a pop and fall into a snow pit.



Four days later, Su Xiao, holding a map in hand, looked at a steel border fortress not far away.

He finally arrived at his destination. The towering frontier in front of him was the northernmost point of Asia and America.

The entire border fortress is hundreds of meters high and is a steel structure that stands between two snow-capped mountains. It is the only entrance and exit from the north to Asia and the United States.

Because of this, 'Fortress Brickez' is often attacked by other countries.

The cold climate has formed a strong folk custom, and the long-term unrest has made both men and women here soldiers.

Standing in front of the border fortress, Su Xiao did not go directly to the border fortress. Although the 'Brickz Frontier Fortress' had become semi-autonomous, his status as a wanted criminal was still valid here.

Walking towards the snow-capped mountains next to the border fortress, Bubu Wang quickly followed.

BooBoo Wang has been so sad these days that he can't even chew a bone. The temperature is too low. When BooBoo Wang gnaws on a bone, the bones will freeze and become harder than steel, which makes him very angry.

It is impossible for ordinary people to enter the hundreds of meters high border fortress from the snow-capped mountains on the side, but Su Xiao is not an ordinary person.

Climbing up the snowy mountain, the boundary line popped up and entangled in the middle of the fortress. Su Xiao sneaked into the fortress with Bubu Wang.

As soon as he set foot outside the fortress, he heard the sound of footsteps.

Su Xiao hid aside, and several soldiers wearing white winter coats walked by. These soldiers looked serious and were meticulous when patrolling.

Avoiding these soldiers, Su Xiao ducked into the fortress.

He had already memorized the detailed map of the fortress, which was provided by Mustang. With his position as colonel, it was not difficult to obtain such a map.

There are a large number of soldiers stationed in the fortress. Su Xiao can sense the patrol tracks of the soldiers and avoid these soldiers in advance.

The structure inside the fortress can be described as intricate. It was built this way intentionally. If a spy from another country sneaks in, it will be a maze without a map.

An hour later, Su Xiao walked into an office.

There is no one in the office. This office also has a residential function, fully demonstrating the simple and direct style of 'Brickz Fortress'.

Sitting behind the desk, Su Xiao took off her coat and finally felt warm.

After waiting for a few hours, footsteps were heard at the door, and a woman pushed the door open and entered.

Seeing Su Xiao behind the desk, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then she pulled out the rapier at her waist.

"Who are you? Huh~, I think I've seen you before."
