Chapter 126 The City of Totem

"It's so cold!" Hongyue said tremblingly.

"Persevere, this is an excessive airflow and will not last too long."

"But I'm almost frozen!"

"Stand it."

As soon as I finished speaking, the external air pressure suddenly returned to normal, and the strong wind stopped instantly. I quickly removed the protection of the mercury shield and spread my wings. The light shone on us again to bring some warmth. Hongyue's face had turned white, and her body was shaking very hard.

"Are you okay?" I asked, holding Hongyue.

"No...it's okay, it's just a little stiff."

"Xiaofeng." I quickly summoned Xiaofeng to help. A large fireball immediately solved our problem, and I felt that our body had returned to normal immediately. However, the problem in this place was relatively low. Xiaofeng could not stay outside for a long time. After my body was not cold, I quickly asked her to go back.

The depth of this valley exceeded our imagination, and the intermittent cold air just now would circulate every 20 minutes, and the time was quite accurate. Hongyue and I hid all the way down to the bottom of the valley, almost all the afternoon.

At the bottom of the valley is a frozen river, and you can see that there is still some water flowing under the ice layer. The width of the river is more than 50 meters, and there are frozen cliffs on both sides. Compared with the above, the temperature here is slightly higher, but the ambient temperature is still more than minus forty degrees. Although the sky is completely dark, it is very bright here. The surrounding ice crystals reflect a blue light, which looks quite dreamy.

"Look." Hongyue suddenly ran to the front, but the ground was too slippery. She just ran two pieces and fell down with one split. I originally wanted to help her, but the distance was a little farther away and there was no time.

"Slow down. It's not snow here, and the ice layer has no adhesion." As I said, I knocked on the ground with my right toe. With a thud, a large row of steel nails popped up at the bottom of the magic dragon boots. When I changed my left foot, I bounced on the ground in the same position, and the same steel nails popped up. With this walking, I won't slip.

Hongyue helped me get up and followed me to the place she began to see. The environment here is no different from the location where we landed just now. It was surrounded by crystal-like ice layers, but there were a lot of battle marks on the ground and walls here. The glacier ground under her feet was obviously attacked by heavy punches. Only Zhenhong could do the huge radiation cracks on the ice. As for the pits of large and small sizes on the walls, it was even more obvious. Most people would not have such strong destructive power.

The traces of fighting extend forward all the way, this is the best signpost. As long as we follow this route, we will definitely catch up with Zhenhong. "Hongyue, come here."

"What are you doing?"

"I will carry you, hurry up like this."

Hongyue thought about it for a moment and jumped up. I put my toes on the ground a little longer, took the steel nails back, and then I swung my feet and an ice sniper bounced out. Ice skating is much more labor-saving than walking, and it is very fast. It is very strange to say. Although the traces of fighting can be seen everywhere, we did not see any corpses or blood along the way, and there was nothing except the bumpy ground and the broken ice on the ground.

After running for a while, the river suddenly entered a cliff and there was no road. The river water entered the interior of the mountain from a hole on the cliff. However, the entrance of the cave was below the ice surface and we could not enter. The traces of fighting also stopped here. The lack of damage on the ice surface means that Zhenhong did not enter the mountain with the river. Three sides here are surrounded by cliffs, and the only entrance is the direction we came over. If Zhenhong did not go down into the river, he could only walk from above.

Hongyue and I quickly began to look for roads along the cliff. Zhenhong could not have disappeared without help and for no reason. There must be another exit in this place.

After searching for a while, I suddenly found a hole in the cliff above me more than 50 meters above the ground. The ice layer here is too smooth, and many things that are mixed with reflection and refraction cannot be seen clearly, otherwise we would not have discovered the hole for so long.

I aimed the dragon tendon rope at a point above the hole, and moved my finger and flew out immediately and accurately embedded it into the ice layer. I picked up Hongyue and replaced it with the steel nails on the soles of the shoes, stepped on the cliff wall and went straight to the hole and drilled in.

The light inside and outside the cave is brighter, and blue light shines out from the depths of the cave. The entire cave is made of ice, with ice everywhere up and down, left and right.

"Oh my God! What is this?" Hongyue was suddenly frightened by what was in front of her.

There was a human under the ground not far ahead of us, and his body was all under the ice. He only stretched his hand on the ice and looked towards the sky as if he wanted to catch something. Although the body seemed to have been a long time, the person's appearance was basically complete, and he looked like a living person except that his skin was a little shriveled.

I walked carefully to the poor man and looked at it under the ice. "It looks like European."

"It looks so scary." Hongyue kept a distance from this guy carefully.

"Maybe we should ask what it knows."

“Good idea.”

I took out the magic necklace from the bracelet and wrapped it around the arm that stretched into the air. I saw that the entire body suddenly had a white fluorescent light.

"Who? Who awakened me?"

"A passerby." I held the necklace and said, "Did you see a girl passing by here this afternoon?"

"I've been sleeping all the time, and I don't know if there is one."

"Then how did you die here?" I wondered why this guy died, because if I didn't know that it could become ours.

The sound of the corpse sounded slowly: "It was an Eastern monster that killed me. It was said that it should be a mascot for the Chinese. But I don't know why the Eastern people use such a dangerous thing as a mascot."

"Can you describe what that thing looks like?"

"This is hard to say. After so many years, my memory is a bit blurry. Moreover, the appearance of this thing is very special. It has a rough appearance similar to a four-legged carnivore. Its whole body is covered with white hair. By the way, there are horns on its head, which are a bit like deer antlers."

"Qilin?"

"Yes. That's that thing."

Hongyue thought with her hands crossed her chest and said, "It is obvious that there is a frost and snow unicorn living here, but the legendary unicorn should be a gentle creature. It should not hurt people for no reason!"

I knocked on Bing and asked in front of the corpse below, "Why did you come here?"

"I am the Paladin of the Templars and come to hunt the Kirins on the orders of the church."

Hongyue said relievedly: "No wonder!"

"Why did the church ask you to hunt the Qilin?"

"Because the Qilin is an evil beast, it does not respect the guidance of God."

"God? Which God?"

"Of course it is the extremely bright, generous and selfless God of Light."

Hongyue said disdainfully: "Even creatures that don't respect themselves are really generous and selfless."

"You cannot slander the incomparable great God of Light." This paladin has indeed firm will. "You must pay the price for what you say, and be extremely great quickly..."

I pulled off the necklace, the light on the corpse disappeared instantly, and the sound suddenly stopped.

"I'm just an idiot." Hongyue turned around and continued to walk into the cave.

I quickly followed. "Where are you angry with a npc? At least we got some news."

"But we still don't know where Zhenhong is."

"At least we did not go the wrong way." I pointed to a huge crack area that had just appeared in front of us. The entire wall here was covered with dense spider web patterns, and it would probably completely disperse if you touch it again.

"Another a masterpiece."

"It seems that this punch is quite strong."

"Which punch is Zhenhong's weaker than the strength?"

"Hey. It seems like there is wind here." I pointed to the passage in front.

Hongyue followed me to the other end of the passage. After turning a bend, the passage suddenly ended. We suddenly entered a huge and unimaginable space. This is a world composed of ice, walls, ground, ceil, and everything is composed of ice. There is actually something even more spectacular in this huge ice cave-a city.

Is the city in front of me large? Not to mention Aisinger, it is not a big city even compared to Yunxiao City, which was handed over to the Hot Blood Alliance to be entrusted. However, the structure of this city is really amazing. It is actually made of ice. The entire city has only one city wall, and the other three directions are directly protected by icebergs. The only direction facing the passage is a five-kilometer-wide ice wall, and there is a row of ice sculptures of various monsters on the top of the city wall.

There are a few buildings in the city behind the city wall, and you can directly see the top structure of the building from here. From the roof with hanging corners and flying eaves, it can be judged that this is a Chinese-style building, but this place should be considered an Indian boundary. How could there be a Chinese city?

"It's really red." Hongyue suddenly screamed.

We were on the top of an icicle in front of us. Zhenhong was looking at something with her feet on her feet. When she heard the shouts, she immediately turned her head back. "Why are you down?" Zhenhong turned over and fell to the ground and ran towards us.

"It's not just for you." Hongyue complained half-true and half-falsely: "As we walked, we suddenly found that you were gone. As we walked, we found a hole. We wanted to see if you were inside, but the ground suddenly collapsed. We fell down together."

"Then why did you arrive?"

I pointed to Hongyue: "We didn't jump down directly. After the ice shattered, I kept climbing down with Hongyue on my back. By the way, I saw many cracks on the road. What are you fighting with and there are pits everywhere?"

"A medium-sized monster has a lot of numbers, but I have all killed them." Zhenhong said indifferently.

"Then why didn't we see the body?"

"That thing is made of ice. Once it is broken, it will be broken. You must have seen it and didn't pay attention."

I nodded and pointed to the city ahead: "Have you entered?"

Zhenhong shook her head: "Did you see the ice sculptures on the city wall?"

"What's wrong?"

"Those are magical ice images, things like golems. They will automatically attack as soon as they get close. I have tried several times. There is no way to get close."

"Is that amazing?"

Zhenhong shook her head again and said, "It's so amazing that it's not that great. I punched one of these things, but as long as they were broken, they would slowly melt into the ground. Then a new individual would appear on the city wall. I've been fighting here for a long time, and I can't finish it."

"Infinite Rebirth." Hongyue looked at Bingcheng and said, "Have you tried using fire?"

Zhenhong didn't answer but took a torch from behind and handed it to us. There was a large piece of ice at the top of the torch, and it looked like a burning flame.

“Frozen?”

Zhenhong nodded: "I just lit it, but the fire on the torch was frozen."

I bounced it with my hand. The torch was still jingling. "What a good guy. It's really hard."

"Are we going back the same way now or find a way to get in?" Zhenhong asked me.

Hongyue said: "It's all here. Will Zi Ri agree if she doesn't go in?"

"Of course." My unexpected answer made Hongyue stunned. I took out the map and marked the location here, then put the map away and said to them: "There are still a lot of things in the guild. We don't have time to delay here, leave first, and come back later if we have time."

Although Hongyue was shocked, she agreed with me. We first returned to the canyon and climbed up the valley little by little. Back on the snow peak, we went on a night of trek and finally arrived at the Chinese border after dawn. After crossing the border, it was simple. We took out the scroll and teleported it directly back to Aisinger.

As soon as Zhenhong and Hongyue arrived, they couldn't hold on to go offline. I ran to think about reporting safety with Rose and the others, but I didn't expect to be in a flash. The left-behind players said that several of the main responsible persons in the guild had gone to Gangcheng. I had to run to Gangcheng again.

It felt something was wrong when I left the teleportation array. Gangcheng was so quiet that it could only hear the sound of cooling fans of some large machinery. Gangcheng is the heavy industrial base of our guild. It is the place with the most noise among all cities, but today it is surprisingly quiet. I ran in the city for a long time and could hardly see people. Except for some automation machinery working rumblingly, most of the equipment stopped, and what was even more strange was that some large equipment disappeared.

When I came to Gangcheng last time, I had more equipment than I am now. Later, we introduced a lot of new equipment from Germany and the United States one after another, and we also developed a large number of equipment ourselves. It is said that these equipment should be very large, but Gangcheng is actually more empty than the last time it became. This is really strange.

Suddenly I saw someone running over in a hurry, and I quickly grabbed him. "I finally saw a living person."
