The two looked around and found that the interior of the snowball was very large. It was estimated to be at least 200 square meters, and they could build a three-bedroom, one-living room and a yard inside. It was not empty inside, and there were all kinds of furniture made of ice and snow. Pavilions, tables, chairs, screens, and even beds and quilts. Although I don't know if it's useful to sleep on the ice bed with a quilt, but they did prepare it.
Not far behind the two, all the members of the Kunlun team turned into ice sculptures, and they all maintained the postures when they fled. There were two more such ice sculptures in the pavilion in the center of the snowball, which were the ghost fire and the flying frost. Apart from these members of the Kunlun team who were frozen into ice sculptures, there was no one else in the snowball.
"Are they still alive?" Lin Xi walked around the ice sculptures of the Kunlun team members, but did not dare to touch them, for fear that she would accidentally break the ice sculptures.
"Still alive." Each member of the Kunlun team has SS-level strength, so this frost power will not kill them. However, it is not easy to break free.
"That's good." Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. "Then how do we save them?"
"It's safest to melt it with warm water." He could split the ice with one palm, but at this time the bodies of the Kunlun team members were also inside the ice sculptures. If their bodies were affected by the power of ice and became fragile, he might kill them with one palm.
"Then we'll just have to leave it there for now." They were still imprisoned, so where could they find warm water
Chen Chu looked at the will-o'-the-wisp at the pavilion and asked Lin Xi, "Is 'Snow Disaster' here?"
Lin Xi shook her head: "No, it should be buried under the sand."
After she came in, she could no longer see the beam of light. It seemed that the Blue Flame leader had buried the "Snow Disaster" item inside the sand castle, and then placed the Frost Cage on top of it. So when they touched the sand castle, the "Frost Cage" was activated first, and they were imprisoned before they could even get the "Snow Disaster".
Chen Chu was a little disappointed. Although he knew that it was unlikely that the "snow disaster" was inside, if they could seal the "snow disaster", this trip would not be in vain.
"You just reminded us to hurry up. Did you discover something?" Before the sudden change, Lin Xi was the first to react.
"This is a Venerable-level item, the Frost Cage." Lin Xi told the truth.
"Venerable level?" Chen Chu's eyes widened slightly. The most powerful supernatural item officially owned was only SS level, and there would be no more than three of them. As for Venerable level, he had never even heard of it, let alone seen it.
Chief Blue Flame was definitely the first savior that Tianyu was looking for, and the cooperation between the two sides was very good. As a result, Chief Blue Flame received tremendous help from Tianyu, such as props that no one else had ever heard of.
In comparison, the high priest is extremely useless. When you ask him for help, he only talks about it but doesn't give you any benefits.
"Since you know what this prop is, do you know how to crack it?" Chen Chu did not ask Lin Xi how she knew it. As the opener of the Tianji Realm, it can be said that Lin Xi's connection with Tianyu is closer than his. It does not seem strange that she knows some of Tianyu's props.
"I know." Lin Xi nodded.
"What method?" Chen Chu looked up in surprise.
"Astrologer's tears." Lin Yan replied.
Chen Chu was stunned.
"This frost cage was built by a Snow Lord in order to imprison an astrologer, because astrologers can predict the future. In order to address this, the Snow Lord used some unknown method to create such a prop that can block the secrets of heaven. This is why I didn't notice the existence of the prop at the first time." This prop was originally given by the system. If it could not block the secrets of heaven, the system would not have failed to discover it in advance.
"Then why does it take an astrologer's tears to break it?" Chen Chu was puzzled.
"This is a story of tragic love." Lin Xi really couldn't read out the last self-touching sentence in the system prompt against her conscience.
Chen Chu was stunned for a moment, then realized it. He couldn't help but cursed him as a pervert. But although he was a pervert, the props were really powerful. Since he entered here, he has been trying to find a weak point to see if he can break the snowball from the inside. But not only did he not find it, he even found that the snowball could block the power from the outside.
This was not a good sign. If he could not mobilize the power of heaven and earth, the strength of this newly promoted Venerable would be greatly reduced. Even if the other party did not need to do anything and slowly consumed his strength, the power in his body would soon be exhausted.
"Astrologer's Tears?" Chen Chu looked at Lin Yan fiercely, "I remember you can also tell fortunes."
"But my ability is not divination." Strictly speaking, her ability is a system. Although the system has many props and masters various abilities, it is not an astrologer.
Chen Chu frowned. His last hope was gone. What should he do
The temperature in the frost cage was extremely low. Although Lin Xi was wearing a thick down jacket, she soon felt very cold standing still and couldn't help sneezing.
Chen Chu looked over and saw that Lin Yan's nose was red from the cold. He waved and took the blanket from the bed and put it on Lin Yan. He also took a pillow and put it on an ice chair, letting Lin Yan sit down and rest.
"You sit down and rest first, I'll think of a solution."
Lin Xi was about to nod when suddenly a "ding" notification sounded and a system prompt appeared out of nowhere.
[Car accident penalty countdown, ten minutes.]
Car accident penalty? Three-day statute of limitations expired
Lin Yan subconsciously took out her phone to check the time, but found that it had been turned off due to the low temperature. She calculated the time in her mind and found that three days had passed since she last turned into a puppet.
"System, are you going too far? At this time, you are still punishing me for the car accident. If you want to kill me, just say it." Lin Yan was so angry. Who caused her to be in this situation today? It was all the system. Even the prop that imprisoned them now was given to the leader of Blue Flame by the system. At this time, the system had not forgotten to punish me.
After being yelled at by Lin Yan, the system, knowing that it was in the wrong, remained silent for a long time. Now it had to come out to explain: "This is a system setting, a rule, I cannot change it."
"!!!" At this moment, Lin Xi had a thousand curse words in her mind but she didn't know whether to say them or not.
"What's wrong?" Chen Chu noticed that Lin Xi was in a bad mood and asked sharply.
"The three days are up." Lin Xi replied.
"Car accident?" Chen Chu's eyes lit up. He remembered the strange punishment on Lin Yan. This punishment seemed to be a kind of rule force. As long as the time came, no matter where Lin Yan was, a car accident would inevitably happen. When those car accidents happened, Chen Chu didn't even know where the cars came from.
"Can the car crash in?" Chen Chu asked.
"No." A cold young voice sounded from inside the cage, answering the question on behalf of Lin Xi.
Chen Chu turned around quickly and noticed a group of snowmen not far behind him. The snowman was plump, with delicate features and a lively expression, and was even smiling at the two of them.
"Leader Blue Flame!" Chen Chu used his body to block in front of Lin Xi.
The chubby body of the snowman-like Blue Flame leader slid on the snow, just like an ordinary person walking, silly and harmless. But what he said was extremely vicious: "Why do you think I use this prop? It's because this prop can hinder the rules of punishment. Cars cannot enter the frost cage."
Lin Yan's face turned pale when she heard this. She asked the system in her heart, "Is it true?"
System: “Yes.”
The last trace of blood on Lin Xi's face faded, and she even swayed slightly and almost fell into the chair.
Chen Chu hurriedly supported the person. He looked at Lin Xi's face and felt that things did not seem simple, as if there was something he did not know.
He just asked Lin Yan whether the car could enter the frost cage, intending to use the power of the punishment rule to break the cage, but even if it failed, Lin Yan's reaction would not be so big.
"What's wrong?" Chen Chu asked Lin Xi in a low voice.
"We only have two days." Lin Xi hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth. Given the current situation, even if she didn't say it, Chen Chu would still know it when the time came, so it was better to just say it directly.
"Two days?" Why is there a time limit suddenly
"Because if you can't get out within two days, she will die." The Blue Flame leader explained the reason on behalf of Lin Yan. As the previous host of the system, he knew the system much better than Lin Yan. Over the years, the happiest thing for him was that a few months ago, Lin Yan wore Sadako's long hair to save people in Blue Flame. Because he finally found the system again.
From the moment he discovered Lin Yan, Leader Blue Flame had been secretly investigating Lin Yan and summed up many rules from every detail of Lin Yan's life.
He knew that Lin Xi had been in a car accident about half a year ago, but was unharmed. From this, he could infer that the system was bound at that time.
Although the system is powerful, it must follow established procedures. Coupled with the lessons learned from the previous host, the system will definitely restrict the next host. Combined with Lin Xi's daily performance, it is not difficult to guess that there is a possibility of death from multiple car accidents.
As for how many times, Blue Flame leader couldn't be sure, but it wouldn't be too many times, otherwise Lin Yan wouldn't be so nervous. So, the most likely number is three times. And his guess was not wrong. The two days Lin Yan gave just now just confirmed his guess.
Chen Chu froze, not caring about the Blue Flame leader behind him, staring at Lin Yan with his eyes fixed: "Is what he said true?"
"No...it's okay, you forgot, only I can open the Tianji Realm, he won't let me die." Yes, she won't die, if she wants to revive Tianyu, she must rely on her, so Leader Lan Yan will not let him die.
"In other words, what he said is true?" Chen Chu wanted the answer persistently.
Lin Yan had no choice but to nod: "I need to accumulate merit points through divination. If the merit points reach zero, it will trigger a car accident penalty. If it happens three times in a row, I will die. In fact, this rule is pretty good. It's like I have three lives."
Lin Yan was right. She did have three lives, which was more than others under normal circumstances. But it was easy to kill her. All she had to do was trap her in a place where she couldn't be divined. Even if she did nothing, she would die.
"So that's what you thought. You thought I wouldn't kill you." Leader Lan Yan laughed. "I was wondering why the Chinese government let you go so easily. I thought we had to wait for a while until the snowstorm caused widespread casualties before the Chinese government would take action."
Chen Chu heard the murderous intent in the Blue Flame leader's words, and with a flick of his hand, a green spear emerged, pointing directly at the Blue Flame leader: "Don't you want to open the Heavenly Realm?"
"Who said that only you can open the Heavenly Realm?" The snowman's two eyes made of black stones stared at Lin Yan coldly, "Have you forgotten that I once had that thing?"
