Chapter 081: Century Soup
As soon as he landed on the Ice Continent, dozens of humanoid ice sculptures of different shapes appeared in front of Lin Su's eyes. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Some people hold long swords and big knives, and some people hold machine guns and spears. The expressions on everyone's faces were vivid, and Lin Su seemed to be able to feel the fear and unwillingness at the moment when their bodies were frozen.
These are all gourmets who have come to the Ice Continent before, and each of them wants to conquer the Ice Continent, but the Ice Continent has been turned into sculptures to decorate their entrances.
Standing at the entrance of the Ice Continent and looking into the distance, you can vaguely see a huge iceberg in the center of the continent, which is the destination of Lin Su's trip.
In the early days of ago, when there was no cryopreservation and breed improvement technology, food hunters brought them to the Ice Continent to store them in order to preserve the ingredients of their Western whole meals. In order to make it easier to find later, huge icebergs become the best markers.
If Lin Su wanted to be able to find the wine he stored in the Ice Continent in the future, then the burial location could only be inside the iceberg.
Feeling the strong air flow blowing like a typhoon blowing in his face, Lin Su knew that he had come at just the right time.
In today's highly advanced technology, there are still countless food hunters who want to conquer the Ice Continent, and their purpose is definitely not to preserve the ingredients of their Western whole meals in the Ice Continent.
These food hunters are all here for a certain ingredient, and the only ingredient that can attract many food hunters to flock to it is the treasure of the Ice Continent - Century Soup.
Once every 100 years or so, the combustible ice deep beneath the iceberg erupts, and the methane gas released continues to burn, melting part of the iceberg that encompasses many ingredients, and the liquid that melts from the iceberg is the legendary century soup.
At the same time, the combustion of methane increases the temperature inside the iceberg, and strong winds blow from the iceberg to the outer side of the continent due to the effect of this hot air current.
So these strong winds are actually a precursor to the coming out of the century soup.
If you want to get the world's soup, you have to endure this strong wind, and I don't know how many food hunters have died in this hellish environment throughout the ages.
"The soup of the century, which appears once every 100 years, is probably the ingredient that has been separated for the longest time in the human world. Lin Su said with a sigh.
Seeing the location of the iceberg, Lin Su walked over step by step against the strong wind. The clothes made of Blizzard Bear's fur are really strong against the cold, and you still can't feel the chill in the cold environment of Ice Hell.
……
Not long after Lin Su left, an icebreaker broke through the ice and arrived at the Ice Continent, where the icebreaker was anchored, where Lin Su had landed before.
"There's the Ice Continent ahead, everyone pack their gear and get ready to go. Kirk shouted loudly from the bow of the ship.
Two months ago, Kirk was hired by foodie tycoon Douglas to travel to the Ice Continent to capture Century's Soup. Although food hunter is a highly personal profession, Kirk's prowess gives him a high level of prestige in the team.
Before coming here, Kirk had already learned about the situation in the Ice Continent in detail, and he knew that this operation was a life-or-death adventure. But in order to taste the legendary soup of the century, Kirk did not hesitate.
Most of the food hunters on the ship had the same idea as Kirk, and they agreed to Douglas's commission in the hope of getting the rich man well-equipped.
If nothing else, it's hard for the average food hunter to get their hands on an icebreaker dedicated to the Ice Continent, but a tycoon like Douglas can have several icebreakers at his disposal with the wave of his hand.
On the icebreaker, a helicopter keeps moving food hunters back and forth to the nearest platform to the top of the ice shelf.
"Uncle Kirk, it's our turn. One girl reminded. If you look closely, you will see that the color of the pupils of this girl's eyes is different, the left eye is black, and the right eye is blue.
"Nis, do you really want to go on an adventure in the Ice Continent?" As the only girl in the team, Kirk took good care of Niss, and he didn't want this well-behaved girl to be one of the many ice sculptures on the Ice Continent.
"Don't worry, uncle, my strength is very strong. Niss bent her arm to flex her muscles, but the thin arm was not convincing at all.
Seeing Niss's determined look, Kirk silently closed his mouth. From Niss's eyes, Kirk had already seen the other party's consciousness, and she was ready to face death.
Kirk and Niss boarded the helicopter together, and a dozen or so food hunters aboard the icebreaker waved goodbye.
Those people weren't ready to venture aboard the Ice Continent.
Some of them recognize their own strength and don't want to give up their lives in vain, while others want to wait for the rabbit and wait for the opportunity to snatch the success of others' labor.
Although they are in the same boat, everyone's mind is different. Kirk: Not only do they face the harsh environment of the Ice Continent, but they also have to watch out for daggers stabbed in the back by their companions.
Carefully landing on the Ice Continent, Kirk and the others joined the others who had climbed up before.
There were three paths in front of everyone, the first one going straight to the huge iceberg in the face of strong winds, and the other two going in a roundabout way from the left and right.
"In this case, it is better for everyone to walk together, although the straight road has strong winds but the shortest distance, and the situation on the road is relatively clear, I propose that we approach the century soup from the front. ”
Kirk knew that these people were waiting here in the hope that he would give a suggestion, so he just said what he thought.
"What a joke, to march against such a strong wind is simply suicide. Immediately objections were raised.
In this case, everyone has their own considerations, and Kirk will not force others to follow him, and he and Niss take the first path.
The rest of the people struggled for a while and immediately split into two factions, some of them catching up with Kirk and the others, and the other choosing to take a detour from the right.
Those who made a detour were soon in danger and went straight into the territory of a group of ice jaguars. For these food delivered to the door, the ice jaguar swallowed unceremoniously.
The Ice Jaguar has a capture level of 17 and is extremely fast in the snow, so the only way to survive is to defeat them.
Most food hunters have been bitten in half by their large mouths just after seeing the ice jaguar, and only a few can withstand the attack of the ice jaguar.
In the face of these powerful food hunters, the ice jaguar no longer rushes to attack, but follows them from a distance, letting the ice and snow wear down their physical strength. As soon as someone shows a flaw, they will attack immediately, and their target is not the food hunters but their winter suits, and a single cut is a victory.
The screams were faintly heard by those who chose the first route, but they were no longer in the mood to gloat because they were in a bigger crisis.
The gatekeeper of the Hell of the Merger, the Ice Dragon, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
