Chapter 861: Enter Ice Bridge


Latest website: Although the picture is a bit blurry, Sylvia and Tessa Moka can still see that the dark shadow should have been formed by a large group of insects.
If it is just a bug, the problem is that if you compare the size of the ice bridge channel, it is not difficult to estimate that the size of these bugs is very large, almost as large as a human.
This is not all. When Leo continued to zoom in on the map, they found some huge spaces inside the ice bridge, and it seemed that there were a large number of such insect-like creatures in these spaces.
"What is this?" Sylvia couldn't help asking.
"I also want to know." Leo shook his head and said: "But surely when the Renault people passed the ice bridge, these bugs did not exist yet, otherwise, they would not be able to pass the ice bridge smoothly."
"How do these bugs live in the ice bridge? It stands to reason that no plant can survive in the ice bridge?" Tessa Moka frowned and said, "According to the size and number of these bugs, absolutely A large forest and various animals are needed to maintain their most basic living conditions."
Sylvia suddenly speculated: "If these bugs did not always live in the ice bridge, they only recently accidentally entered the ice bridge from the crack on the outer wall of the ice bridge. When they left, the ice bridge crack was re-sealed. Blocked up so that they are trapped inside the ice bridge?"
Leo could not help but frown, because Sylvia's statement reminded him of the fog.
The north side of the ice bridge is an endless ice field, where no creature can survive. This is a fact recognized by the Velon world. In the notes of the high tower wizard, the exploration of the endless ice field by the high tower wizard has also been recorded, although still all They only explored on the edge of the ice field, but it was enough for them to make sure that no creature could survive in such an extremely harsh environment.
Since the endless ice sheet in the northern part of the ice bridge can't have creatures break into the ice bridge, it can only be the sea on the south side of the ice bridge, but there can be no such bugs in the sea, so the only answer is gray fog.
Leo originally believed that the ice bridge can block the penetration of fog, but now it seems that as long as the outer wall of the ice bridge is damaged, the fog floating on the sea surface may penetrate into it, so if they enter the ice bridge tomorrow, then they will You need to be very careful, otherwise you will be caught in the fog, not to mention the monsters encountered in the fog, even if you don't encounter the monster, it will be a headache for the fog to be brought into an unknown time.
Leo told his inference to the two. Sylvia knew what the fog was, and soon understood Leo’s idea, while Tessa Moka was completely unclear about what the fog was. Yunshan mist around, but she still understands that Leo is saying that the grey mist is very dangerous, don't have any contact.
Although Tessa Moka was unclear why Leo said that, she instinctively felt that following Leo’s prompt was the best way to avoid her own accidents.
After analyzing the map and deciding the passage and route to walk tomorrow, Leo marked the already selected route, and then sorted out the prepared luggage and other items, and then went to rest.
Early the next morning, the three woke up one after another, freshened up, carried their luggage, and left the cottage.
The town is still the same, the town residents are still hiding behind the house and watching Leo, but when they see Leo and others carrying their bags on their backs, they seem to realize what they are, and all have a bad smile on their faces. .
However, they did not know that the situation in their small town had been notified to Leah Venistan by Sylvia and others using special methods, and soon they would have to face Deliyat’s army and a Has just been promoted to a powerful existence of demigod.
After the three had left Tanico, they went directly to the entrance of the ice bridge. After arriving at the location, they released the pack animals. The domesticated pack animals would return to Tanico along the route themselves.
At the entrance, Leo brought up the map again. Last night because of the automatic analysis program, the new data was also restored to the map under the operation of the program, which was added to the back.
As expected by Leo last night, after the detection by the detector, the bug-like creatures will appear from time to time in the area behind the ice bridge, and the number has also increased a lot, even Leo is in some slightly larger ice caves I also saw objects similar to insect nests.
"It seems that there will be no small trouble! I have studied the creatures there in the wilderness. Although the bugs in the eyes of most people are inferior creatures without wisdom, they do not know that the bugs are actually wise. It’s just that their wisdom is all focused on hunting, defense, reproduction, and so on.
Tessa Moka looked at the shadows representing the insects, pointing to the location of the shadows, and said:
These insects also obviously have not low wisdom, you Looking at the place where they gather, the area where the suspected insect nest is located is in the middle, and the distance between them is almost equal. This should be the best distance for them to transmit information. That is to say, no matter which bug we encounter, we will be alarmed. All the bugs in the ice bridge."
"Do you have any good solution?" Leo looked at Tessa Moka and knew that the other party had suddenly analyzed the bugs. It was definitely not casually talked about, and there must be the following, so he asked the other party's idea. Road.
Tessa Moka said with great confidence: "It will be enough for me to solve it. I know a lot of solutions to these bugs."
Leo and Sylvia looked at each other and couldn't help smiling, Tessa Moka was baffled.
"What's so funny about this? Isn't it wrong for me to help?" Tessa Moka said a little unpleasantly.
Sylvia directly asked: "You tell the truth! Why are you interested in killing those bugs?"
Tessa Moka froze for a moment, looked at Leo and they smiled bitterly, and said, "I'm really selfish, but I shouldn't be wrong if I want to help!"
"Of course not." Sylvia shook his head, and said: "But we hope to know the reason, so as not to cause any misunderstandings, I think you should not expect any misunderstandings?"
Tessa Moka pouted, thought a little, and said: "When I came here yesterday, I felt something in it helped my growth. When you showed the map just now, I can be sure The things I help are those bugs, so I hope you guys will let me catch them."
After listening to Tessa Moka's explanation, Leo and Sylvia both understood that the bugs should have been spotted by the world tree seeds in Tessa Moka's body.
Although I don’t know how this will help the growth of the world’s tree seeds, it’s not harmful to them. It’s also a good thing if someone can stand up and take the initiative to clean up those bugs.
So Leo nodded and agreed to Tessa Mocha’s request, then he used a universal recorder to record the life characteristics of the three people, and then made a corresponding mark on the map, this mark will be along with their movement Move to determine their location on the map.
After completing the marking, he climbed one step ahead and reached the entrance of the channel selected last night. He smashed the snow at the entrance and walked in.
The ice cave is very slippery, and Leo needs a special method to divide psionic energy under his feet in order to grasp the ground.
Subsequently, Sylvia and Tessa Moka each boarded the ice cave, and they also used their own methods to enable them to walk steadily on the smooth ice.
The tunnel of this ice cave is very large, with a diameter of about six meters. Compared with the arc on the top, the bottom looks much flatter, and there are no problems with four or five people walking side by side.
According to the map, compared to other ice tunnels, the road behind will be relatively flat and easy to walk.
Because of the permeability of the ice, the ice cave did not appear dim. Leo did not ignite the torch, allowing Sylvia to follow them and walked forward.
The three were walking steadily in the passage. The situation in the ice cave was roughly the same as the one detected by the previous detector. There were several places marked by the detector as weak ice, because the whole day has made the ice layer A lot thicker, the danger has weakened a lot, but in other places, because the ice bridge has moved a little bit throughout the day, so some small cracks have appeared.
However, these are not major problems. Leo can easily detect these subtle changes with the Spirit Net, but this also makes Leo aware that there is a problem with his method of using the detector.
I'm too far away from the detector, and if there is any problem in the middle of such a long distance, the data scanned by the detector will be invalid.
So Leo, who discovered the problem, slowed down the speed of the detector through the universal recorder. After they caught up, they accelerated the speed and tried to keep them within a one-hour distance.
As a result, Leo speeded up on the road. The first batch of insect biomarker sites that could only be reached at noon, arrived two hours after entering the ice bridge, and what disappointed Tessa Moka was that it was No detected insect creatures were found, except that there were traces of insect creatures residing on the ground and traces left when crawling.
Converging the disappointment on his face, Tessa Moka quickly looked at the traces on the ground and said: "This kind of insect has seven pairs of insect feet, and the three pairs in front are very sharp, which can easily cut the ice surface. , Is their main attack weapon. The three pairs of worm feet behind are very strong and have claws to catch the ice. The last group of worm feet is under the tail, which should be very long and can play a balancing role." She side Analysing, while sucking in the surrounding air vigorously, said: "This kind of insect is a carnivorous insect and can spray an acid. These insects are very hungry, but they did not climb out of the ice bridge and go hunting outside," said Then, she seemed to think of something, her face was a little serious, and she said: "There should be a female worm, and that female worm should be in a weak state at this moment, so you need to control the swarm to protect yourself, if the female worm is not injured. If that’s the case, then it’s her transformation and promotion."
Seeing Tessa Mocha was able to analyze so many things based on only some faint traces and residual odors on the ground, Leo was also a little surprised, so he asked seriously: "This is a good thing for us, Still a bad thing?"
"It's not a bad thing, but it's not a good thing." Tessa Moka smiled and said, "It's not a good thing to face a group of hungry and strongly aggressive insects, but..." said Then, she paused for a moment and said vaguely: "I'll do it by then."
Seeing Tessa Mocha behaved so confidently, Leo didn't say anything, and continued to move forward, the back passage began to shrink gradually, but how to shrink, Leo also had to be much wider.
After walking a distance, Leo and they came to a relatively spacious ice cave. Here is the intersection of several channels. Compared with the channel Leo chose, the other channels are all based on the scanning of the detector. Some are hard to go.
And in this freezing, Leo and they found a corpse, to be correct, a corpse of bugs.
I saw that the bug was about a meter tall, with a huge body, and it looked like a common bug called Warthog, but it had seven pairs of limbs, just like Tessa Moka's previous analysis.
At this moment, the bug has only an empty shell and broken limbs. The meat and internal organs have been eaten. From the various traces, it should be eaten by other bugs. When the bug was eaten, it was Without resistance, it feels like being eaten voluntarily.
Tessa Moka came to the wreckage of the bug~EbookFREE.me~ put her hand on the wreckage, and then saw her hand suddenly stretched out a lot of vine-like tentacles, touching the wreckage of the bug , And the debris melted quickly at the moment of being touched and absorbed by the vines.
Leo walked to the side and looked at the vine. Although he did not feel any hostility from Tessa Moka and the vine, he could feel that the power of his nightmare seemed to shrink, restrain, and hide spontaneously. Among other forces in the body, this feeling is like encountering a natural enemy.
"Is this from the seed of the world tree?" Leo asked curiously, aware of the power of the nightmare.
The power of the nightmare is Leo’s most used force and the most practical power in Leo’s body. He is also curious about the origin of things that can restrain the power of nightmare, and it is convenient for him to think about some coping methods in advance. .
"Yes." Tessa Moka did not hide, nodded and admitted Leo's speculation, but she did not intend to explain further.
Leo didn't ask. He picked up a piece of bug's carapace from the side and looked at it. He felt that there was nothing more to pay attention to except the carapace was very hard.
