Vol 9 Chapter 126: Totem city

"It's so cold!" Hongyue said with trembling.
"Keep on, this is an excessive airflow and it won't last for too long."
"But I'm freezing!"
"Hold on."
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, and the light shot back at us with some warmth. Hongyue's face had become white, and her body was shaking very much.
"Are you okay?" I asked Hongyue while helping.
"No ... nothing, it's just stiff."
"Xiaofeng." I quickly summoned Xiaofeng to help. A large fireball immediately solved our problem, and I felt that my body was back to normal immediately. However, the problem in this place is relatively low. Xiaofeng cannot stay outside for a long time. After the body is not cold, I hurriedly let her go back.
The depth of this valley is beyond our imagination, and the intermittent cold air just now circulates every 20 minutes, and the time of the Seal of the Throne is quite accurate. Hongyue and I went all the way to the bottom of the valley for almost the entire afternoon of the Seal of the Seal of Throne.
The bottom of the valley is a frozen river, and you can see that there is still some water flowing under the ice.
The width of the river is more than 50 meters, and on both sides are frozen cliffs. Compared with the above, the temperature here is slightly higher, but the ambient temperature is still more than -40 degrees below zero. Although it was completely dark, it was very bright here. The surrounding ice crystals reflected a blue light and looked quite dreamy.
"Look." Hongyue suddenly ran to the front, but the ground was too slippery, and she slammed a split after just two runs. I wanted to help her, but it was a little farther away. No time.
"Slow down, this isn't snow, the ice doesn't have much adhesion." I said as I slumped on the ground with my right toe. With a click, a large row of steel nails popped out of the bottom of the dragon boot, and the left foot was shot in the same position on the ground. With this walk you can no longer skid.
Hongyue helped me to get up and followed me carefully to the place where she started to see. The environment here is not different from where we landed just now, all around is ice crystal. But there are plenty of signs of fighting on the ground and walls here. The glacier ground underneath was obviously attacked with heavy punches. The huge radiation cracks on the ice can only be achieved by true red. As for the large and small pits on the wall, it is even more obvious, and most people do not have such a strong destructive force.
The traces of the fight stretched forward all the way, this is the best road sign, as long as we follow this route, we will be able to catch up with real red. "Red Moon. Come here."
"What are you doing?"
"I'll carry you, so hurry up."
Red Moon considered it a little or jumped up. I put my toes on the ground again.
The nails were retracted, and I shook my foot. A skate bounced out. Skating is less laborious and faster than walking. It was strange to say. Although the traces of the fighting were everywhere, we did not see any corpses and blood along the way, except for the smashed ground and the ice-filled ground.
After running for a while, the river suddenly entered a cliff and there was no way. The river water entered the mountain from a hole on the cliff, but the hole was below the ice surface and we could not enter. The traces of fighting also stopped here. There is no damage on the ice surface, indicating that the true red did not follow the river into the mountain. It is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and the only entrance is the direction we came from. If the real red does not go down the river, then it can only go from above.
Hongyue Xun and I started to find a way along the cliff. True red cannot disappear for no reason. There must be other exits in this place.
After searching for a while, I suddenly found a hole in the cliff above my head more than 50 meters above the ground. The ice here is too smooth, and many things mixed with reflection and refraction can't be seen clearly, otherwise we won't have the cavern of the Seal of God for so long.
I pointed a little bit above the opening with a dragon's tendon, and as soon as I moved my finger, the rope immediately flew out and was accurately embedded in the ice. Picking up the red nails and replacing the steel nails on the soles, stepped directly on the cliff and drilled into the hole.
The inside and outside of the cave are brighter than the light, and the blue light shines from the depth of the cave. The entire cave is made entirely of ice, and ice is everywhere up, down, left, and right.
"Oh my God! What is this?" Hongyue was suddenly frightened by something in front of her.
There is a human underneath the ground not far ahead of us. His body is all under the ice, and only one hand is stretched out on the ice and he seems to want to catch something. Although the corpse seemed to have a long seal of time, the person's appearance was basically intact, and he looked like a living person except that his skin was dry.
I walked carefully to the poor bug and looked at it under the ice. "It looks European."
"It looks so scary." Hongyue carefully kept a distance from this guy.
"Maybe we should ask what it knows."
"good idea."
I took the tail necklace from the bracelet and wrapped it around the arm that stretched out in the air, and I saw the whole body suddenly glow with white fluorescence.
"Who? Who awakened me?"
"A passing person." I held the necklace hanging and said, "Did you see a girl passing by this afternoon?"
"I've been asleep, even if I have one."
"Then how did you die here?" I would like to know the cause of this guy's death, because if it is not known, it may become our cause of death.
The voice of the corpse squeaked slowly: "It was a monster from the east that killed me. It is supposed to be a mascot of the Chinese. But I don't know why the Orientals use such dangerous things as mascots."
"Can you describe what that thing looks like?"
"This is not easy to say. For so many years, my memory is a bit vague, and the shape of this thing is very special. It has a rough shape similar to a four-footed carnivore, and its entire body is covered with white long hair. By the way, it has To the horns, some are like antlers. "
"Kirin?"
"Yes, that's the thing."
Hongyue pondered with both hands, "Obviously there is a Frost Snow Unicorn. But the legend is that the unicorn should be a gentle creature and should not hurt you!"
I knocked on Bing and asked the body below: "Why did you come here?"
"I am a paladin of the Templars. At the order of the church, I came to kill Kirin."
Hongyue releases: "No wonder!"
"Why did the church let you kill Kirin?"
"Because Kirin is an evil beast, it does not respect God's guidance."
"God? Which god?"
"Of course it's extremely bright, generous and selfless."
Hongyue said disdainfully to the pond: "Even the creatures who don't admire themselves can't tolerate it.
"You can't stigmatize the immensely great God of Light." The Paladin was indeed determined. "You have to pay the price for what you say, and you are going to be incredibly great ..."
I pulled off the necklace, the light on the body disappeared instantly, and the sound stopped suddenly.
"It's an idiot." Hongyue turned and continued to walk inside the cave.
I quickly followed. "What kind of anger do you have?" At least we got some news. "
"But we still don't know where the real red is."
"At least we didn't go the wrong way." I pointed to a huge cracked area that had just appeared to us. The entire wall here is covered with dense cobwebs. Just touch it again and it will probably completely disappear.
"A real masterpiece again."
"It looks like the punch is not weak."
"Which punch is less powerful than true red?"
"Well. There is wind here." I pointed to the passage in front.
Hongyue followed me towards the other end of the passage, and the passage ended abruptly after making a turn. We went into a huge unimaginable space at a glance. This is a world made of ice. The walls, the ground, the zenith, everything is made of ice. There is something even more spectacular in this huge ice-a city.
The size of the city in front of it is not large. Not to mention Isinger, this is not a big city even if it is compared to the Sky City entrusted to the Blood League. But the structure of this city is really amazing. It turned out to be made entirely of ice. The entire city has only one wall, and the other three directions are directly protected by icebergs. In the direction facing the passage, there is an ice city wall of five kilometers wide, and there is a row of ice sculptures of various monsters on the top of the city wall.
There are a few tall buildings in the city behind the wall. From here, you can directly see the top structure of the building. Judging from the roof of the hanging corner cornice, this is a Chinese-style building, but it should be regarded as the Indian boundary. How can there be a Chinese city?
"It's really red." Hongyue cried suddenly.
On top of an icicle in front of us, real red was stepping on something to look at. When she heard the shout, she turned her head back immediately. "Why did you come down?" Zhenhong rolled over and ran towards us.
"I'm not here to find you." Hongyue complained half-truth: "Walking and walking suddenly you disappeared. As a result, we found a hole. We wanted to see if you were inside, and the ground suddenly collapsed. We fell down together. "
"Then how did you get here?"
I pointed at Red Moon: "We didn't jump straight down. After the ice broke, I kept climbing down with Red Moon on my back. By the way, I saw a lot of cracks on the road, and you were fighting everything. Is it a pit? "
"A kind of medium-sized Warcraft, there are many, but I have been killed." Zhenhong said indifferently.
"Then why didn't we see the body?"
"That thing is made of ice. When it is broken, it is crushed ice slag. You must have noticed it."
I nodded and pointed to the city in front: "Did you go in?"
Zhenhong shook her head: "Did you see the ice sculptures on the wall?"
"what happened?"
"Those are magic ice statues, things similar to golems. As soon as they get closer, they automatically attack. I have tried several times, and I can't approach them at all."
"Is this amazing?"
Zhenhong rejoined again: "It's so bad. I'm punching one of these things.
But as long as they are broken, they will slowly melt into the ground, and then a new entity will appear on the city wall. I have been here for a long time and can't finish it at all. "
"Infinite rebirth." Hongyue looked at Bingcheng Road: "Have you tried using fire?"
Zhenhong did not answer but took the torch directly from behind and handed it to us. This torch has a large piece of ice on top and looks like a burning flame.
"Frozen?"
Real Red nodded: "I just lighted, and the fire on the torch froze."
I played it with my hand, and the torch was still jingling. "Good guy, it's hard enough."
"Are we going back the same way or are we trying to get in?" Zhenhong asked me.
Hongyue said: "It's all here. Would you agree if you didn't go in?"
"Of course I do." My unexpected answer frustrated Hongyue. I took out the map to mark the location here, and put away the map to the two of them: "There are still more things in the guild. We have no time to delay the Seal of the Seal of God here, leave first, and have the Seal of Time later Come back to the throne. "
Although frightened, Hongyue agreed with me. We first returned to the canyon and climbed out of the valley a little bit. Back to Xuefeng, we went through another night's trek and finally reached the Chinese border after dawn. After crossing the borders, it was easy, took out the scroll and teleported back to Isinger.
True Red and Red Moon couldn't keep going offline as soon as they arrived at Isinger. I myself ran and wanted to make peace with the roses. The players left behind said that several of the main leaders in the guild had gone to Steel City. I had to run to Steel City again.
When I was out of the teleportation array, I felt that something was wrong, and Gangcheng quietly could only hear the sound of the cooling fans of some large machinery. Steel City is the heavy industry base of the guild. It has the largest voice in all cities, but it is surprisingly quiet today. After running in the city for a long time, I could hardly see anyone. Except for some automated machinery working in the boom, most of the equipment stopped, and even more strangely, some large equipment was missing.
When I came to Gangcheng last time, I had more equipment than now. Later, we introduced a lot of new equipment from Germany and the United States. We also opened a lot of equipment ourselves. It is said that there should be a lot of these equipment. It's strange that it has become more empty than the last time.
Suddenly I saw someone running over in a hurry, and I quickly grabbed him. "Finally see the living."
"President?" This player was caught by me too.
"Where are the people here? What are you doing in a panic?"
This player is pointing up. "Everyone is busy on those things you brought back, I still have to get the parts, you still have to ask someone else." Said the player ran away like a gust of wind and ran to the original ground passage, but This is beyond recognition.
The only entrance to the ground from the steel city was a long stone ladder passageway, but now it has become a large lift group and countless spiral elevators. Several large lifts full of cargo are slowly rising along the wall in front, and many players load things in and out of a parked lift. There are a lot of players on the artificial spiral ladder running up and down like ants on a hot pot, and they don't know what they are busy with.
Seeing what everyone looks like on the ground, I found an elevator and followed it to the ground. I was totally dumbfounded as the surface conditions appeared in my sight.
The elevator is actually a warehouse, and the huge space is no less than that of the large passenger aircraft. The large and small boxes in the room were full of piles, and the hordes of WoW pulled the flatbed carts and transported some boxes to the outside of the warehouse.
I walked out of the warehouse almost unconsciously. The sight outside is even more shocking. The desert at the top of Steel City is gone, but there is a huge working area like a field airport. The ground covered with steel plates is extremely hard, and some strangely shaped buildings are standing in all directions irregularly, which feels quite strange. Looking back at the warehouse I just came out, its shape is different from the general warehouse. This guy seems to be a turtle shell on the ground, like a bunker over the warehouse.
Large groups of people are building the base of a building on a huge flat square. Because there is only a foundation, I can't see what is being built. Womadi's voice suddenly appeared behind me as I was going to walk over: "Purple Sun? Are you here so soon?"
"Woma? What are you doing here?"
"Look over there and you understand." Woma pointed to us.
I turned around and saw only a huge support frame and a large number of workers. The corner of the warehouse blocked most of the thing, so I had to run over to see it. As soon as I left the shadow of the warehouse, I immediately saw the whole picture of that thing.
First I saw a large row of steel arches. The huge metal support frames were huge, and all of them were painted with yellow and black stripes, which looked quite powerful. Inside these arches, a giant row of cranes was busy back and forth on the tracks. The arches were obviously built to support the crane.
Under the huge arch. An already-formed item is undergoing final assembly. I can roughly see that this is the head of an insect. I'm not an entomologist. I still can't tell what kind of insects are based on this incomplete head.
This insect head is completely welded from metal, and the huge volume is very scary. The giant head, almost two-thirds the size of the Battleship Big Bend, has a pair of large pliers-like mouthpieces in front of it, which looks very aggressive.
I suddenly remembered what it was. Look back at Woma who has come to me. "This is the Army Fortress? Have you started building it?"
Woma smiled and said, "I started to build the little ant totem when people from the institute came to show me. You cleared the warehouse when you last cleared it in the institute, I really do n’t know why. There are so many weird things in your storage space. "
"I just don't like to organize things much." I pointed at the huge head with a smile:
"How do you design a sports organization?"
"Actually this is what we are worried about," Woma explained as I walked there. "The Army Ant Fortress has absolutely no moving mechanism at all. If it is in the real world, then I think it should just be A relatively large sculpture. For example, the mouth with a large pliers. It is completely integrated with this head, let alone bite something, don't even move it. But the ant totem you brought back insisted that only The shape is made, it can make this thing move. We are now worried about whether this guy is really saying. "
"I think it should be true. After all, it's not good for it to fool us."
I looked at the head that was almost finished and asked, "Did you only build one head?"
Warma pointed behind us. It used to be on the opposite side of the library. Now I can see that there are many such supporting arches. "The chest of the ant fortress is being built over there. The one behind you is building the abdomen. The mother ant legs are being built in the two places on the left. There are already three completed legs in the warehouse over there. We can carry out the final assembly of the throne. I hope that the totem is telling the truth. "
"What to do when such a big thing is assembled? It seems that there is not enough lifting equipment nearby?"
"Did you forget that we have a gravity resistance device? Although these things cannot be moved, it is still possible to make straight up and down lifting equipment. If the progress is fast enough, we can see the completed army ant fortress tonight. In the end Whether you can really make this steel sculpture move is tonight. "
The insect legions were brought back in the tropical rain forest for the level 800 missions they said, otherwise I would probably not help them. Each of these 13 races has its own race castle, and they do not need to build complex joints. As long as the physical shape is created, they can use magic to move these big guys. Although doubtful, I still trusted them for the 800 level mission. Woma and I have similar opinions and are worried about the truth of what they say, so this time build one of them. If you can really move, it is not too late to rebuild other castles. If you ca n’t move, it is time to pay for lessons.
I didn't leave Steel City all day today, and they were all here. After seeing them, I showed them the quartet of the magical soldiers and told them some information about the really new new national weapon. Of course, everyone was very happy, but now everyone's minds are focused on whether this big iron ant can Moved on, not too excited.
Due to some minor problems, the construction progress was delayed a little, and it was still not completed after dark. On the huge square, the magic square-driven square lights were turned on, and the big metal ants were quietly choked on the ground. Flocks of workers are busy making connections and adjustments outside and inside the ants.
This big ant is not solid, it also has a lot of space inside. Although the internal space utilization rate is not high because of its strange shape, the effective area finally calculated still reached four fifths of the effective space area inside the Great White Shark. The entire big ant used millions of tons of steel. If it hadn't been for the reinforced steel ground, it would have been separated into the sand.
Until the day was about to dawn, the giant metal ant was finally completed. This huge guy is resting on the ground so quietly now, his body is directly on the ground, those long legs did not support the body ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but diagonally forked on the side. The black metal surface was painted with red markings by the workers, which looked quite eye-catching, but now this posture really shows no momentum.
Rose gave me the totem again, and they said that such an important task for the first time was of course for me. Everyone was pushed through the gate of the ant's chest into the army ant fortress, which was almost the same as the interior of the Great White Shark. The compact room arrangement creates a lot of space for public areas. Down the stairs we climbed up to the ant's head in the army ant fortress, and the control room was on the ant's head.
Entering the control room, we roughly looked at the internal environment. This place is more of a town hall than a control room. There is a hemispherical convex part on the left and right sides of the room, which are the eyes of ants, but the eyes of pure steel are opaque, we cannot see anything through it, even the light here is by us. Light source provided.
There is a one-meter-high table in the middle of the room. The top surface of the table is inclined, like a console, but there is no connection here, only an ant-shaped groove. The fool also knows that I must put the totem in my hand in order to start this thing.
The red ant colony's totem was constantly flashing red light, just as I approached it a little bit, it suddenly called out. "Wait a minute."
