Heavenly Calamity

Chapter 291: A dangerous place

This was a message from thunder. When everyone was airborne, they encountered turbulence and the personnel were blown into chaos. Some people are relatively unlucky and are blown away alone and end up in an isolated situation. Some people are relatively lucky and can find some companions nearby so that they will not be completely isolated.

Lei Ming was relatively lucky. After landing, he immediately used the area loudspeaker to announce. In the end, about 30 people were gathered around him smoothly, plus a dozen foreigners, including Du Rongrong and Ye Qianqiu.

Zhang Mu and Lei Ming confirmed each other's coordinates.

The two sides were too far apart and finally agreed to meet on the ice field.

"Old Hei, the coordinates are confirmed. They are hundreds of miles apart. Because they are surrounded by mountains and there are snow and strong winds, the armored vehicles cannot be used. We can only meet again on the glacier. You must be careful on the road. There is a creature on the ice sheet that is good at ice magic. . I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, but I don’t rule out the possibility of an intelligent race. This place is no better than Dawn Camp, there are no rules and regulations. If there is an intelligent race, I don’t know how far it will grow, so be careful!”

Despair Icefield knows nothing and can only tell the information it has obtained first.

The mysterious businessman cannot be summoned in the wild, and the sound transmission scroll requires one less. The two of them transmit sound to each other once, and consciously break off the contact.

Zhang Mu sent word to others, and finally got the situation. Lin Caiyan was with Liu Shuiyan and others, and Fatty met Huang Tian. About 20 people gathered together. As for Sangou, Xie, and Leng Yun, they were in the same situation as Zhang Mu. At present, In isolation, no companions have been found for the time being.

Recently they have been separated by twenty or thirty miles, and it is difficult to find them in the middle of nowhere. We can only move forward first and meet up one after another along the way.

Zhang Mu has confidence in the soldiers. Although the environment is a bit harsh, everyone will not freeze to death.

The only thing to worry about is the monsters.

However, after walking for half a day, I didn't find a single monster figure. Lei Ming and Huang Tian were in the same situation. The density of monsters on the Despair Icefield is far inferior to that on the Dawn Plains. These soldiers have received special training and know how to protect themselves, so there shouldn't be a big problem.

Wild and endless darkness, the flames in the cave are burning slowly, and the surrounding ice walls are blue and very beautiful. The ice has been frozen for at least thousands of years, and is as hard as steel.

"It's getting colder!"

Zhang Mu used instruments to conduct tests. The ambient temperature was minus 58 degrees. When he peed, it turned into ice the moment he landed on the ground.

The fire burned some snow, and the water vapor floated into the air, and was immediately condensed into ice mist by the ultra-low temperature, making it white. Some water vapor adheres to the metal armor, and eventually the ice layer on the armor becomes thicker and thicker. Zhang Mu had to take off his helmet, breastplate, armor, and most of his equipment, and stayed almost naked in an environment close to minus 60 degrees Celsius. There was thick snow under his buttocks, and there were cold ice walls behind his back and above his head.

A normal person would freeze into a popsicle in just ten seconds.

Zhang Mu is similar.

He could only wrap his body in a cloak, eat bread one bite at a time, constantly digest the magic food, and the energy in it was gradually converted into heat, barely resisting the extreme cold, and occasionally drink a sip of strong wine to keep his body warm and awake.

"The cake tastes pretty good, and half a piece can restore your strength. It's really a good thing!"

Zhang Mu poured strong alcohol into his mouth and did not dare to sleep for fear of being frozen in his sleep.

The chef is right, pancakes are a good food for survival. Not only are they easy to carry, they are also easy to fill up.

If the life is not 0, you will not die.

As long as you always have sufficient physical strength and enough heat to fight the cold, your life will be safe. Zhang Mu has a very strong physique, and he doesn't have to worry about being cold to death. He eats 2 pieces of bread and drinks half a bottle of spirits. Although it was still unbearably cold, it was much warmer than before. He huddled up in a ball and stared at the dancing fire as time passed by.

The ice fields are empty and the nights are long.

The world is always dead and desolate!

The sound of the wind and snow is like the mournful cry of a night owl, and all living things are extinct, leaving only a solitary person.

the next day.

The snow was falling heavily and the wind was howling.

House seemingly endless rain!

A blizzard came unexpectedly, and it was completely white outside. The blizzard was raging, covering the sky and the sun, and the visible distance was no more than 10 meters. The temperature is now slightly higher than at night. If you stand still for 30 seconds, you will be covered with snow and instantly become a snowman!

I have never seen such a blizzard in my life. The snow on the ground is several feet deep, and in some places it reaches several feet. Walking is already difficult, and it is even more difficult when encountering bad weather.

Zhang Mu had no choice, so he pulled up his cloak, held it in front of him, and moved forward with difficulty.

After only two hours of walking, Zhang Mu discovered a problem.

The violent snowstorm was too physically demanding. Due to the long-term struggle with the cold, the body temperature continued to drop, and the limbs began to freeze again.

Can't leave.

We can only find a place to rest and have something to eat first.

Zhang Mu found a crevice in the ice and immediately got in, gasping for air. All the ice spray came out of his mouth and nose.

"what to do?"

The wind and snow were so aggressive that they refused to let Zhang Mu go, and poured them into the ice crevices like crazy.

Zhang Mu was soon buried in the snow. He took out a piece of dough with difficulty. The soft and steaming dough was frozen as soon as he took it out. Zhang Mu chewed the whole piece and swallowed it like a biscuit. .

"The blizzard is endless!" Zhang Mu showed a sad face, "Even if you have a physique that is ten times or a hundred times stronger than ordinary people, you still can't bear it! No matter how much food you have, sooner or later you will have to finish it."

Because of the obstruction of wind and snow, which greatly affected the forward speed, we only walked about five miles from the start to now.

The daylight hours on the ice sheet are too short, about 8 hours.

Calculating this way, it would take Zhang Mu at least two months to reach the ice field.

The chef gave 500 pieces of bread, leaving only 50 for himself, which occupied exactly one space in the backpack, and the rest of the bread was divided among other important members. As for the ingredients, Zhang Mu brought some rare ingredients such as thousand-year-old demon mushroom meat. The quantity was definitely small and the proportion in the backpack was very small.

Various magic scrolls, potions, spare equipment and other combat items occupy the vast majority of backpacks and storage bags!

In a normal environment, eating 2-3 noodles a day is more than enough. 50 noodles can last for 2 months. Other mercenaries also carry a lot of food and ingredients, which can take as little as ten days or as much as a month. I thought there was no problem with food rations. After all, the team was not big and it would be easy to provide food.

Unexpectedly, the outside world was completely different from what he had imagined. It had been almost a day since Zhang Mu landed on the ice field, and he had been walking for so long without seeing even a ghost, let alone a fight. On the contrary, the food consumption rate is much faster than expected. If I had known better, I would have abandoned the messy scrolls and replaced them all with food and cold-proof items!

"We can't stay here any longer, or we'll be buried alive. We have to go."

As soon as Zhang Mu walked out, a violent storm and snow came, which was a bit unbearable. Zhang Mu was like this, not to mention other mercenaries. Although not a single monster was seen on the ice field, the harsh natural environment was enough to kill many people here.

"Wood, wood, can you hear me?"

When Zhang Mu was thinking about countermeasures, he recalled a touching and pleasant female voice.

It's Leng Yun!

Leng Yun's voice couldn't penetrate the wind and snow. There was only one possibility. She was shouting through a loudspeaker. The range of the speaker in an ordinary area can probably be heard by humans within fifty or sixty miles.

This shows that Leng Yun is nearby.

Zhang Mu took out his long sword and stabbed it into the sky. The green sword light soared into the sky, and the light was bright and eye-catching. A few minutes later, Zhang Mu heard the flapping of wings. Leng Yun rode Qing Mu, her whole body covered in a blue magic shield. She used the magic shield to resist the severe cold and strong wind, and fell tremblingly from the wind and snow, landing in front of Zhang Mu. .

"Mumu, I found you!"

Leng Yun jumped off the pterosaur's back, only to sink into the snow, leaving only its neck on top.

Zhang Mu quickly went up and pulled her out: "Why are you here?"

Leng Yun breathed a sigh of relief, shivering from the cold, "After the phone call last night, I flew over on Qingmu. I didn't expect the snow to be so heavy. Qingmu's strength was almost exhausted." As he said that, Leng Yun took out a bag from his backpack. Qingmu quickly ate the large piece of meat, and then ate a piece of beast crystal, "Thank you, let's go back to the card first."

Leng Yun sealed the green eyes.

"Don't summon war beasts easily in this environment. It's too dangerous."

"It doesn't matter. Isn't there a blizzard to cover it?"

When two people are together, there is always someone to take care of them.

Zhang Mu said: "Don't stand here, let's go!"

Zhang Mu turned on the heroic halo, and the two of them headed towards the ice. Leng Yun was wearing a cloth robe, but it was not warm. The mage's physique was too weak, and the magic shield could not be turned on all the time. It was very difficult to fight against the cruel environment, and he stopped and walked. The speed is far from ideal.

It's getting dark again.

The two found a small snow cave, about ten square meters, which was more than enough room for the two of them. Zhang Mu took out a giant shield and blocked the entrance to the snow cave first to prevent the constant wind and snow from pouring in. The two of them sat down face to face in the cave and used magic to raise a fire. The fire warmed them a little.

The surrounding white snow was reflected in a layer of crimson by the firelight.

Leng Yun put the staff aside and kept rubbing her frozen hands. She stared at Zhang Mu with two bright eyes as he took off the breastplate. There were centipede-like wounds on his body, which were stitched up after being injured in the Blood Forest. left behind.

"I kind of miss the Dawn Plains!"

"It's okay. Although the environment is harsh, it is not impossible to survive. We will get through it." Zhang Mu took out an animal skin wine bag and handed it to Leng Yun: "Drink some, it will make you warmer!"

Leng Yun took a big sip, and a burning sensation flowed into her stomach. She almost choked and vomited it out, but after holding on for a long time, it turned out to be quite warm.

“Do you have any ingredients with meat?”

Leng Yun took out a large piece of fresh meat, which was golden beef, a DD-level precious meat.

Zhang Mu cut off small pieces with a chef's knife and used the magic pot to cook a pot of hot and fragrant broth.

“It smells so good!”

"Drink it while it's hot, or it'll get cold."

The two of them didn't have bowls, so they dug out a piece of solid ice to use. The ice was as frozen as steel and not easy to melt. They drank the broth and ate a piece of bread, and immediately felt much better.

"In such a harsh environment, you can still drink delicious broth! How wonderful!" Leng Yun licked her lips, touched her belly and said with a smile, "It is indeed the right choice to join you."

Zhang Mu couldn't laugh, "Our food is consumed too quickly, and it will be dangerous to survive if we continue like this."

"There is always a way." Leng Yun smiled slightly and said, "We just arrived!"

"Well, let's meet up at the glacier, gather our forces as soon as possible, and seize an airport. This will allow the humans to communicate with the camp, and reinforcements and resource supplies will be poured in continuously!"

"Take your time, don't rush! It's really cold here..." Leng Yun suddenly came closer and hugged Zhang Mu with both hands, "This will keep you warmer."

Zhang Mu didn't pretend to be a gentleman. He was too cold. He immediately stretched out his hands and hugged the beautiful woman in his arms.

Zhang Mu was not wearing armor, only wearing a cloak. His soft and elastic body leaned directly and quietly against him, especially his plump chest, which was tightly attached to his body through the not thick cloth. The atmosphere in the human world is a bit ambiguous.

It’s just that given the current circumstances, I don’t have the time or energy to think about messy things.
