"Sister Ness, how long can we last?"

The empty voice rang in Ness's ears.

Ness was awakened to some consciousness. She shook her head and grabbed the crushed ice next to her and put it on her face, trying to make herself more sober, but...

Why is the ice warm?

It's sleepy, it's warm, it's comfortable.

Ness slowly closed her eyes again.

The Valkyries didn't get a response from Ness, and they felt something bad in their hearts.

"Sister Ness, it's so cold here, don't you sleep." A fellow Valkyrie fumbled for Ness, shaking her to try to sober her up, but Ness gently pushed her away, "It's so warm in here." No wind, no snow. It's a little darker, but it's very comfortable. ”

"But, there's snow everywhere here!"

Ness's eyes opened suddenly.

A biting chill suddenly flooded her brain, and she finally remembered where she was.

Ice caves under the ice, above the lake.

They walked cautiously all the way on the frozen lake. Although they managed to get there before the lake changed, when they stepped onto the frozen lake, the water began to change quietly.

They all stood in a long column with ropes tied around their waists, just to ensure the safety of the political team and the safety of the first team to find the way.

But they had no idea how terrible the lake beneath their feet really was.

When the crack that stretched across the lake was opened, they had no chance to react, and the whole team fell into the dark crevasse, and if it weren't for Ness's urgent stabbing of her weapon into the ice, they would have been submerged at the bottom of the dark lake.

Ness carried the weight of the other four by herself, and she couldn't do more than she could do it, so she gritted her teeth and held on.

However, their plight did not last long, and the water from under the ice, squeezed by the huge ice floe, instantly rushed out of the lake, and the violent impact sprayed them all.

But instead of taking them out of the lake, the lake led them to a fault in the ice floe.

The receding lake quickly covered up the cracks, completely blocking their way out. The five of them just huddled in the crack of the ice, shivering with cold.

"I'm sorry, I... I..."

"Say no more, Sister Ness. I know. We were all hungry. She said numbly, but there was a hint of despair in her tone, "We're going to die, aren't we." ”

"What nonsense, the captain is still looking for the captain of the fifth training camp, and she is still looking for repair. Maybe... She's got him now, maybe the competition is over now..."

"So, are we able to eat?" Valkyrie asked weakly.

"Yes. We can eat. ”

"Is there bread? White bread..."

"Yes, it's still the kind with sugar."

"Is there wheat porridge? As long as there is wheat..."

"Yes, there is more than wheat!" Ness affirmed.

"Great...", the companion leaned weakly against the ice wall as if relieved.

They don't have any physical strength at all, because their bodies can't be replenished at all, and where does their physical strength come from?

"No, we have to eat something, at least drink some water..."A Valkyrie grabbed a handful of ice and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing and chewing, suddenly paused, and began to eat a lot of ice.

"Sister Ness, these ice are delicious, and they are salted!" She said into the unseen darkness.

Ness grabbed a handful of ice and bit down on it, but found that it didn't taste.

Suddenly, she frowned deeply. Because she smelled blood.

"Talliya, stop, stop!" She shouted desperately, groping for the Valkyrie.

"I can't stop... It's cold though... But it's delicious... I—" She was held down by Ness, her hand pressed under her.

A strong smell of blood erupted from Talya's mouth, so strong she couldn't believe what was happening.

"I... Sister Ness, did I do something wrong...", Taliya said with some confusion, "I feel so much pain in my mouth... It really hurts..."

"It's okay, it's going to be fine... It's all right...", Ness whispered, digging the ice out of her mouth little by little, "Spit it out, spit it out." ”

Taria's reaction was weak.

"Sister Ness... I'm sorry..."Tallia said weakly and vaguely, letting Ness pull the ice out of her mouth little by little, "I'm so hungry." ”

"Stop talking, your mouth has been cut by ice, there's a lot of blood in your mouth, don't speak, you know!" Talia stopped talking, just breathing heavily.

The ice is too hard, and the edges of the broken ice are thin and sharp, even if they are used as weapons...

This Valkyrie is the equivalent of a blade that she chews on!

Even though she didn't speak, her breathing began to fade.

No, you can't do that, you have to go out! Be sure to get out!

She pulled out the long sword at her waist and stabbed it hard at the ice above her head, once, again, again!

She wants to break through the ice, she wants to open a path to the ground, she wants to get back to training camp with her teammates safely! Bring them to eat!

But... With just a few strokes, she no longer had the slightest strength to lift her sword, and her legs no longer had even the slightest strength to support her body.

She slammed to the ground, and in the dim ice cave, she saw a sky full of sparks.

The silence around was like a dead place, except for Ness's heavy breathing to and fro in the small space.

Perhaps because her voice was so loud, she couldn't hear anything else.

The companion Valkyrie didn't give Niss any help. Because... They couldn't stand up. All of them are exhausted, and there is no longer even a little bit of fighting power.

Ness lay weakly on the ice, the cloak on her body, the coat in the cloak could no longer stop the cold. Clothes are only used for insulation, but if even the insulated things have no temperature, then what can they protect?

Ness stared blankly at the pitch-black top panel.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of something called faith that she had been exposed to.

Does Almighty God Really Exist...

Ness blinked her dry eyes and gently parted her hard, cracked lips, pulling out several sticky strands of saliva.

Can there really be an all-powerful God who can hear and answer human prayers?

Her lips squirmed slowly.

Do such people really love the world and all people...

With what little strength she had left, she almost whispered.

"God, if you really exist, please save us."

Time seems to have fallen silent.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was a long time, maybe it was a long time, but there was no movement at all.

Even a little response, not even a little rejection.

"Oh, liar."

"Boom !!!!!" The ice on the top layer suddenly shattered, and a faint light shone into the ice cave. This light is very faint, almost faint and almost invisible, but in the dark ice cave, this light is indeed so dazzling!

Niss subconsciously looked up, and through the broken crack, she saw a teenager jumping down, a silver handcuff that had already flown high, and she also kissed the gun you gave to see that something seemed to be missing from the handle of the handcuff. Next to the boy, Victoria poked her head out and looked at her with tears of joy.

After that moment, the shattered ice was followed by the sound of a violent cannon roar, and the shattered ice covered Niss in an instant!

"Victoria, help!"
