Chapter 1087: Attack from the Wind and Snow
Vast black clouds pressed low on the ground, moving, covering the sky, and heavy snow fell from the sky, changing the whole earth into a pure white garment.
"Hoo ......"
The wind was blowing, and the wind chased the snowflakes that were hovering in the woods, dodging left and right, and whistling so violently that the whole forest was terrified.
This blizzard suddenly descended on the Spirit Realm of the Sixth Town more than a month ago.
The climate that was originally like spring suddenly entered a cold winter, which made all the humans who settled in the Spirit Realm of the Sixth Town change into thick winter clothes.
The blizzard became more and more violent, and it felt like the sky was starting to freeze, and people's noses and cheeks were freezing even more.
The investigators, who were about to suffer from heat stroke due to the heat of the weather in Yacheng, entered the spirit realm where the blizzard was blowing through the world passage, and everyone shivered for a moment.
The cold air frequently pours into the fur jacket, and the clothes need to be wrapped more tightly.
The sleigh rolled over the bare ice as the snow on the ground was blown away by the wind, but fortunately the driver of the horse-drawn sled was able to avoid his own sled colliding with other people's sleds.
"Captain, I haven't seen you for that month, and the weather here in the spirit world hasn't improved at all!" the investigator who came to change his guard tugged at his collar and then said to his captain.
"Yes, this bad weather is really uncomfortable, and it hasn't been a few minutes since I came to the Spirit Realm, and I miss the weather over there in Yacheng a little. The captain complained about the cold weather.
The team members are all southerners, they have never seen snow a few times in their lives, and they don't like this kind of weather.
Because of the snowstorm, although it is only noon, the sky has changed to the time of night.
Just as the team turned on their flashlights and prepared to go to their destination, it seemed that there was a strong light shining on the snow-white earth, and the horizon was greatly opened.
"Forehead ......"
The team found that the low, dark canopy suddenly disappeared, and only white diagonal lines formed by falling snow could be seen in all directions.
"Damn, this is bad weather. The members of the guard change team cursed secretly.
The weather in the spirit world is so unreasonable, saying that it will snow and stopping, and it will not give people any time to react at all.
The members of the change of guard team, who had already had a few experiences with this, turned off the flashlight they had just turned on and put it in their backpacks.
............
Under the full construction of the Blue Star Alliance, the area of the Sixth Town's Spirit Realm Station at this time was doubled compared to two months ago.
In addition, humans have also discovered several spiritual stone veins in the vast forest, as well as several ore deposits rich in ores.
In order to quickly transport the excavated spirit stones and various ores back to the Blue Star, humans have built several roads to connect each mine site with the spirit world station, and stationed garrisons in each mine site to protect the mine site from the attack of foreign beasts.
"Driving ......"
In the silent forest, a number of horse-drawn sleighs run on the repaired road.
After the team came out of the spirit station, they boarded a sleigh and headed to a newly developed mine 30 kilometers away.
In the forest, the wind stubbornly blows everything in one direction, and both sides of the road, on the left and on the right, are all white.
It is very difficult for the members of the change team to sit on the sleigh to find something new.
There was not a signpost, not a pile of hay, not a single beast, nothing to see, a patch of snow everywhere.
After leaving the station, the team had traveled more than a dozen kilometers before the snow began to fall again, and the wind seemed to change direction indiscriminately.
One moment it blew in front of it, blowing snowflakes to the eyes, and the next it came from the side, nastyly turned the collar of its coat over its head, mockingly caressed the face of the guard, and then passed through the back, whistling at the back of the head.
When the guards tried to wrap their bodies tighter, the snow that fell on their collars and hats slipped through their necks, making them shiver with cold.
"Everyone insisted on it, and it would be better when they got to the mine. Seeing that the team members were upset by the weather, the captain opened his mouth to boost morale.
............
After more than an hour of trekking, the team braved the wind and snow to go to the mine site and finally arrived at their destination.
This is a mining site that produces spiritual copper, and the mining area is half the size of a football field, and it is equipped with all the necessary living facilities.
Investigators patrol the inside and outside of the mine, and on the periphery of the mine, there are fences four or five meters high, as well as eighteen steel towers, each of which is topped by large luminous stone lamps.
Pure white beams of light tore through the darkness beneath the dark clouds, illuminating every corner around the mine in all directions, leaving no beast to escape under the light.
In the distance, the sound of mining can be heard in the pit, and not far from the pit there are warehouses and barracks in the flat area.
When the team arrived at the mine, they first went to the barracks area, put their luggage in the room where they were staying, and then they had to replace their companions who had been stationed here for half a month.
......
After the newly arrived guards took up their posts, the rotating investigators brought back the excavated spiritual copper ore when they returned to the spiritual realm station.
Fifteen large locomotive-like ore trucks, painted black or brown, drove out of the mine along a road that was not very easy to walk.
These fifteen ore trucks were sent to the spirit world fifteen days ago, and they were the latest products developed by the Blue Star Alliance's Psionic Research Institute.
The engine of the car is operated by consuming psionic energy, and in addition, the defense of the car's body is excellent, and it can resist up to the full force of a second-order mid-stage cultivator.
............
The blizzard is getting heavier and heavier, and the cold wind makes a "whine" sound.
In such bad weather, the visibility in front of the road is very low, and the driver of the ore transport vehicle fleet on the road slows down the speed of the car to prevent accidents.
When the convoy left the mine and reached the vicinity of an icy river, something unexpected happened.
"Woo Woo ......"
On the side of the snowy road, in the dense trees covered with ice crystals, dense ice balls suddenly appeared, and they shot out and slammed into the convoy that was driving steadily on the road.
"Speechless, it's those guys again, it's endless......" The driver on the leading ore transport truck, after sensing a dense psychic energy fluctuation on the side of the road, he immediately knew who the attacker was.
