Su Mo realized the seriousness of the problem at the first moment. He was in cold water with a thick layer of ice above his head. Even if he tried hard, he could not break the ice.
Judging from the situation in the task bar, he should be one of the ones being rescued, and he cannot speak||communicate underwater. When he just opened his mouth and choked on water, he could feel his limbs gradually becoming weak, and his left foot was even stiff.
The current freezing value is 12/100. If the player's freezing value reaches 100, he will be frozen forever.
Just when he was about to type and communicate on the text channel, there was a sudden loud noise from above, followed by the sound of ice cracking, and the surrounding ice was broken by a huge force.
Someone violently broke through the ice wall.
Su Mo paused, and tried his best to get closer to the broken ice.
The next second, a strong hand came in, grabbed his wrist tightly, and pulled him out of the heavy ice water.
When Su Mo saw the dazzling light, he fell weakly on the man and started coughing violently.
The person who came was Yu Zhen. He had no other thoughts at this moment. He directly embraced Su Mo and took him up, "Let's go, let's leave this place first."
The current freezing value is 15/100. If the player's freezing value reaches 100, he will be frozen forever.
The cold wind blew over, and Su Mo felt extremely uncomfortable with his wet body. Only then did he have time to observe the scene in the winter realm.
In the winter, everything was covered in ice. He was rescued from the ice lake. He looked around and saw that it was flat land. He could vaguely see trees and rocks, but most of it was ice. Even the mountain was covered in snow. The cold wind brought snow down, and the cold attacked them.
Yu Zhen took him somewhere, and then a new prompt popped up in front of him.
You have entered the shelter
The shelter was actually a huge cave, and the walls were almost covered with thick ice. Yu Zhen took him to a deeper location, where there were illumination scrolls and a makeshift fire. Yu Zhen helped him sit down, "The props for outdoor life seem to be able to alleviate the freezing value here."
He glanced at Su Mo's left foot, where there was a thin layer of ice. "Wait until you regain your mobility and then go out and take the deal."
Su Mo clicked on the transaction, and on it was a fashion gift box and five outdoor props placed by Yu Zhen. "Being wet here will accelerate the accumulation of freezing points. Change clothes and stay here to keep warm. We'll talk about it after we recover our mobility."
"Brother?" Su Mo was a little surprised to see the outdoor props. These were unexpected prop packages, which usually contained outdoor props such as matches and fire starters, which were useful for some exploration tasks, but he didn't expect Yu Zhen to carry these with him.
"It's safe here for now. I'll tell you the details later." After Yu Zhen finished his instructions, he used a marker to leave a mark here, and quickly left the cave to find other people. "There is a scene map here that can also be marked. Leave a mark so that we can gather here later."
After coming out of the water, the team's voice channel was restored.
Su Mo could see that except for him and Yu Zhen, everyone else's voice was disabled, but the text channel was still usable, with a lot of messages popping up. From the communication messages from other teammates and Yu Zhen's explanation, he roughly understood the current situation.
After entering the realm of winter, they were divided into two groups, one was trapped and the other was free.
The free man entered the scene in advance and received the [Winter Realm Exclusive Fashion Gift Box], which has the effect of keeping warm. After they understood the details of the mission, the scene started the rescue mission. And because of the special situation of the scene, their team members must find each other before the voice function can be turned on. In other cases, they can only use text communication.
Besides him, Hong Guoguo, Zhi Ge, Apple and Huo Shu Yin Hua were also trapped.
The other teammates were looking for people everywhere in the scene.
"A Line of Lead can't reach under the ice. After I activated the skill, it brought me near you. There was no other cover around, so I guessed you might be under the ice." Yu Zhen is very proficient in using the skill of A Line of Lead. He can teleport to the opponent's position in the same scene, but if the opponent is trapped, he can only be teleported to the position closest to him.
Su Mo was a little surprised, so Yu Zhen was able to find him so quickly.
A subtle voice came from Yu Zhen's side, "Time is running out, we have to find a way to find the others."
Su Mo came back to his senses. "Focus on finding the ice layer. They are probably trapped somewhere like me and can't move. And we have a reminder of the freezing value. The rescue time is limited to half an hour. It is very likely related to the freezing value accumulating to 100 in half an hour."
Only Yu Zhen’s position can be seen on the scene map. It should be that he has not met other teammates yet and cannot obtain their position information.
Team leader: Attention everyone participating in the event, can we use the team tagging function
The team is a big watermelon: OK.
The mark that Yu Zhen left in the cave was red, and Su Mo asked other teammates to leave yellow marks. As expected, except for the four trapped people, all other active people could leave team marks. All of a sudden, all the location information was clear.
Team leader: Attention, the four trapped people, you can communicate and report your location information by typing.
Team Hong Guoguo No. 14: In the water.
Team apple: I seem to be in an ice cave, but I can't see any location and can't open the map.
Among the four trapped people, only Hong Guoguo and Apple can type, and their map functions are blocked.
Su Mo immediately opened the map to determine the location. The yellow light beams were scattered almost all over the scene. There was a blank position, which should be the place where Yu Zhen was born. Later, he used his skills to change it.
The map information of Winter Realm was very simple. There were two lake signs on the scene, and the rest were mountains, forests and plains. There were lakes in the east and west, and mountains, forests and plains in the north and south. He should have been rescued from the lake in the east by Yu Zhen just now, and now he was in a cave in the middle of the east.
Su Mo reacted immediately and typed in the text channel: [Huangtao and Xigua, go to the lake to the west to look for Hongguoguo. Hongguoguo should be there. He may drown underwater, so be prepared to use his resurrection skills. Apple is in the ice cave, so he should be in a relatively prominent place. Look for a raised place on the flat ground or in the direction of the forest. Kugua and Qingfeng, look for your location.]
[Hong Guoguo, find a way to leave some marks for your teammates, at least let them know where you are in the lake.]
The remaining Huoshuyinhua and Zhige did not type, either they were in a coma or the conditions did not allow them to type. Typing on the text channel basically requires finger movement, if they can't even move their fingers, it is very likely that they are completely frozen.
"The area that could be completely frozen is too large..."
Except for the places without ice, other places could be the places where they were trapped. Su Mo frowned and looked at the locations on the map. Would they be evenly distributed? How would the five people divide it
Rescue teammates (Countdown 00:15:10)
15 minutes later, Apple was found in a raised ice cave in the southern forest. He used the Flame Sword Technique to make the ice cave brighter. His fancy skills made him stand out in the white world. Hong Guoguo was even more exaggerated. The light effect of the healing flower changed the color of the lake. Before he died, he released a summoned beast that would not be withdrawn after death as an underwater landmark. In the end, he was found and revived by Huang Tao.
There was an unexpected surprise on the way, that is, Fire Tree and Silver Flower was accidentally discovered by Qingfeng. He turned into an ice block and froze on the flat ground. The ice was very thin. Qingfeng was sharp-eyed and saved him when he passed by.
Except for Zhige, the four trapped people were distributed in the four directions of east, west, south and north.
In half an hour, the mastermind will not increase the difficulty.
[Give up the lakes in the east and west, and look in the north and south to see if there is any place to stop the war. Those with high freezing points should rest in the shelter in the east first.]
Su Mo's freezing value dropped to 0. He did not extinguish the fire, but continued to walk deeper into the cave. In addition to the north-south direction, there is another possibility, which is the location of the cave. If you walk from this direction, it happens to be in the middle.
The cave is very deep and gets bigger as you go deeper.
After walking about a hundred meters, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of me.
You have left the shelter
It was clearly the same cave, but the area outside the cave was a shelter, while the area inside the cave was not. Moreover, as soon as he left the shelter, Su Mo felt an unprecedented cold, even colder than the biting cold he felt in the lake, as if he would freeze to death if he took a breath.
Deep in the cave, an ice-covered road extends away, sinking about half a meter on both sides. A layer of ice has formed on the surface, which should be water.
"I found Zhi Ge." Yu Zhen's voice appeared in the voice channel: "Her position is in the middle of the south. You guessed right, her position should be in the middle."
"Okay, you guys meet up in the cave first."
That means one person each from the east, west, south, north and center.
Others came to the cave one after another, and the voices became lively.
Hong Guoguo: "This is outrageous. We started in the water. I thought I was going to die."
Huang Tao: "Luckily you floated to the surface after you died, otherwise Xigua and I would have to dive into the water to rescue you."
Xigua: "Is there something wrong with the Winter Realm? They start with a rescue mission. If we fail to rescue anyone, won't they be frozen forever?"
"This eternal freezing should be permanent freezing, which should be similar to the situation when Xiao Yinhua was expelled in the Autumn Realm. The healer's resurrection skills are useless, which is equivalent to being left behind forever." Kugua said: "From this situation, it seems that the Winter Realm has not given us a chance to annihilate the team and come back."
Yu Zhen shook his head and said, "It depends on the situation. If it is the same challenge as Qiu Jing, then it is possible. If not, then we should have a chance to start over. But if we reset, we should still need to find teammates."
Everyone gathered in the cave shelter to keep warm and restore their freezing points, but judging from the current scene, this place should also be the kind for a boss challenge, and no other plot hints were seen.
"Where is my elder brother?" Hong Guoguo asked.
Su Mo replied: "I'm in the cave, you guys take a rest first, I'll look for other clues."
It was already ten o'clock in the evening. They spent a whole day to reach the last level of the Soul-Separation Secret Realm. They were obviously the lagging team, but they instantly reversed to the first position.
The rest time was very long, and the other players changed into winter clothes.
Bitter Melon was carrying all kinds of strange props, and even spread out the tent and put it up, and took out the barbecue grill. "Fortunately, the props for the last banquet at the gang's base are in my bag. I'm just waiting anyway. There's a fire here. Do you want to grill something to eat?"
Hong Guoguo couldn't help but ask: "... Boss Kugua, why do you have so many strange props in your bag?"
"I have a strange prop bag, which can give me 50 extra prop slots." The bitter melon brazier was already set up, "Take everything with you, don't you need to use it? Don't worry, the fire generated by the props is usually difficult to extinguish, and it will be cooked well, but I didn't bring much meat."
Apple poured out a bunch of things, "I have this. There's still some food left from the kitchen that Qiu Jing stole. It should be edible."
Hong Guoguo couldn't understand: "... Your package is really empty."
The barbecue was immediately arranged and a group of people sat around it.
Qingfeng couldn't help but look up various strategies on the forum and discovered that most teams on the forum had found tricks to pass the second level. They fought hard with the mermaids, and after dying out of the dungeon, they continued to gain experience.
"Hey, many groups have reached the second level." Qingfeng ran back to share: "But the big boss group seems to be at the third level."
Apple also went to the exploration group and came back: "That's the first level strategy released in Stepping on the Clouds. After all, the first level progresses slowly because most players take the Seven Star Challenge lightly. If the team is wiped out twice, the progress will be delayed. In fact, most of the time is spent on upgrading."
"Later, they became more cautious. They knew to leave a healer as a backup if the team was wiped out. Some DPS teams even brought three healers, and then 9 people tested their skills, with 1 left behind. If the team was wiped out, the remaining healer would save people."
Qingfeng heard the news from the bosses in the team and asked again: "I don't understand the news from those bosses on the forum. Some people say they are at the third level, and some say they are at the fourth level. What competitors do we have for the first pass?"
Xigua couldn't help but say, "You should use your brain, don't you see that we are the first to reach the fourth level? We are currently the first in progress."
At this time, Yu Zhen added: "There are two groups, one is the team in the Xuanyang camp called Tayunzhong, and the other is the team in the Netherworld camp called Gua Buguiyi. When we were in the third level, the group ahead of us was the team in Gua Buguiyi."
"But now, they haven't even reached the fourth level."
Gua Buguiyi is also a player from the Nether Faction. If their group gets the reward, the faction reward will also go to them. However, since they have come this far, they must be here for the first pass reward.
"The winter realm is not that easy. We haven't seen the boss yet, nor have we found any reminder mechanism."
Su Mo made a simple analysis: "From the beginning, the mechanism of spring and summer is the most clear, the boss is in front of you, and the skill mechanism only needs to be tested, but in autumn, there is information around, and the scene starts to play text traps, etc. If it is the last level of the dungeon, the worst case scenario, all the things will happen in turn."
There is one thing that is very clear in Winter Realm at the moment.
It is reducing its staff, and the initial mission is a mission to reduce its staff.
The other members listened quietly, and inexplicably became excited. Now that they were first, wouldn’t they be able to get first place if they worked harder? !
Xigua felt that this trip was not in vain, so he asked: "So what should we do next?"
The others were also curious, and then they heard the commander say, "Just look for it. It's difficult anyway. Save your progress and log off at 11 o'clock. The rest will be arranged tomorrow."
In an instant, it was as if a basin of cold water was suddenly poured on everyone's head.
The more difficult the map, the more cautious you need to be. And in the current situation, if you want to get first place, you have to be more cautious. Otherwise, if you are eliminated in the fourth level, it will take longer to fight back, which is not worth it.
However, the specific decision still depends on whether they can discover the mechanism of Winter Realm, and they cannot underestimate their opponents. Thinking of this, Su Mo glanced at Yu Zhen's avatar in the team, but quickly retracted his gaze.
Su Mo saw that the road ahead was getting darker and darker, so he took out the illumination scroll and planned to go deeper. As he walked, he said, "Let's see what the situation is. If it's difficult, log off at 11 o'clock to rest. The rest can be dealt with at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. It's easier to pass the level if you are in a good mental state..."
He had just said half of his sentence when he felt his left shoulder suddenly become extremely heavy.
A slender hand was placed on his shoulder, and the cold fingers moved along his shoulder to touch his neck. The coldness of the fingertips made Su Mo want to retreat, but the hand controlled him firmly. In an instant, he was covered with [Immobilized] [Cold] and other states.
He probably found the boss.
And it is a red-named monster that actively attacks.
The author has something to say: It’s time to update the page again, and it will be updated in the early morning, don’t wait!
