Nightshade said arrogantly, "Do you want to try the old way?" ā
"The old way?"
"Let the plague or the junior come out and roar twice, won't it be over?"
Nightshade's approach is indeed feasible. The ice city itself was at the bottom of a canyon, and we only discovered that place last time because of True Red's accidental fall. The canyon was supposed to be an obvious landmark, but this time I came to the valley to see a lot, but I didn't see a single canyon.
If you think about it, the location of that canyon is really special. The air flow from the direction of India hits the Himalayas here and is then merged by the mountain body into the central depression, and this canyon is right in the depression of the mountain range. After entering the canyon, the airflow is continuously compressed due to the gradual approach of the mountains on both sides, and finally at the end of the canyon, the mountain finally blocks the way of the airflow, so the airflow begins to climb upward due to the pressure action. When the air temperature drops sharply as the air rises, the water vapor in the air naturally condenses into ice crystals. These ice crystals do not fall downwards under the influence of air currents, but fly upwards in reverse, and some of them will attach to the rocks at the edge of the canyon, and then the ice attached to the surface of these rocks will become thicker and thicker, "growing" outward like stalagmites. When the ice on the two cliff walls are connected, they completely seal the canyon, and a new snow can completely cover the top fault of the canyon, and the top of the canyon is completely camouflaged. Last time, True Red stepped on the ice because we didn't find this natural trap, and after we left for so long, the ice may have healed again, so we couldn't find the entrance.
It's much easier to figure out why. Open the phoenix dragon space and let Xiao San come out to help, the destructive power of the dragon chant can definitely cause avalanches and ice breaks, as long as the snow line collapses and exposes the canyon, we will be easy to find. Xiao San has three heads, and it must be very good to let him roar this voice.
I stood on the ground and said to Xiao San in my ear: "Try to be as loud as possible, the louder the vibration effect, the better." Xiao San nodded. After taking a deep breath, all three heads suddenly opened their mouths at the same time and let out a loud dragon groan, and my heart was jumping even though my ears were still shaking.
The lung capacity of the dragon is very good, so the dragon groaning time is generally very long, and Xiao San is no exception, but this time there seems to be some accident. As soon as Xiao San roared the dragon to the highest part, a loud bang suddenly came from under our feet, and at the same time, two huge cracks suddenly appeared on our left and right sides more than thirty meters away from us. We visibly felt the place where we were standing vibrating violently, and it seemed to sink down a little.
Xiao San's cry was interrupted by this sudden situation. Nightshade also noticed the change in her feet. And in his very clumsy dry humor, he said to me, "I think I know where that canyon is!" ā
I nodded, "Well, I got it, too." ā
Just as I finished speaking. We suddenly had a feeling of weightlessness. The snow began to rise from the two cracks that had just appeared around us, and the place where we stood fell downward. The night shadow under me is an enclave, and of course the junior as a dragon is also an enclave, but this is completely useless. The ice at the top of the canyon is gradually "growing" from the cliffs on both sides to the middle and joining together, so the middle is the weakest point. Once the ice collapses, the middle must be the first to break. The ice on both sides was cracked, but it was rubbed by the cliffs on both sides during the fall. It was certainly not as fast as the middle of the ice, so the ice on both sides flipped to the middle, and as a result, we all fell under the ice. Although we can fly, we can't fly with icebergs!
The huge ice continued to tumble and crash against the cliffs on both sides as it fell, and the large ice pieces broke more and more in this collision, gradually turning into a large number of small pieces of broken ice. It's true that we can't carry the whole iceberg, but the small crushed ice is not a big problem. Relying on his own defenses, the junior flew over us to help me and Nightshadow cover the falling broken ice, and gradually flew upwards. I managed to fly through the broken ice before I landed, but suddenly I felt like there was something else.
I looked up at the mouth of the canyon above. "Did you hear anything?"
The junior replied to me with great certainty: "It should be an avalanche." ā
There are mountain peaks on both sides of the canyon, and Xiao San's dragon chant just now was originally intended to cause an avalanche. Thousands of tonnes of snow cascading down the slopes on either side of the hill and then encountering this open canyon mouth can be imagined.
I, Mistress and Nightshadow looked up at the mouth of the canyon above, and saw two armies of white earth flying out of the cliffs on both sides, and then crashing into each other directly above us, and then mixing together and turning into a huge waterfall from the sky.
"It's over!"
Rumble. The white waterfall slammed down from the top of our heads with a thunderous force. The tremendous impact is no longer something that a dragon can resist. More than 7,000 tons of snow washed into this stretch of canyon where we were. About four or five hundred tons of snow fell directly on our heads, carrying us together to the deepest part of the canyon.
The majestic power of the avalanche is beyond any magic. The deafening sound is also a hundred times more powerful than the dragon's groan. However, the whole process came and went quickly, and after three minutes, it was calm, and all that remained was some snow foam still drifting in the air, and there was an extra snowdrift dozens of meters high under the canyon. The uninhabited mountains once again regained their deathly silence.
Suddenly, some faint voices came from under the huge snowdrift. However, because the mountain is very quiet, the sound is very small, but you can still hear it clearly.
"I hate Avalanche!" This is my voice.
"Are you sure?" Nightshade asked playfully.
"I don't know what you think, anyway, next time I will never yell on the snowy mountain, even if I really need to, I will fly first." Xiao San's voice sounded full of regret.
Nightshade's voice reappears. "The one above, if you don't mind, can you take your claws off my back?"
"Maybe you can try to get us out." I said to the junior.
The snowdrift shuddered, but it didn't seem to change much other than a few small snow particles tumbling down. Xiao San replied helplessly: "It doesn't seem to work, it's too heavy on it." ā
"Then I'll do it." Under the snowdrift, I quickly transformed my identity into the state of a small silver moon. Because of the size of the body has become a little thinner, it has gained a little space to move. With a little force, he moved the staff in front of him. "In the name of the sun and earth, release the eternal power. Summoning - Sun Realm. ā
A large amount of white steam suddenly erupted from the surface of the snowdrift, and the whole snowdrift looked like a nest head that had just come out of the pot, constantly emitting water vapor. The steam erupted faster and faster, from a slow rise at the beginning to a large eruption, and finally a piece of the snowdrift suddenly collapsed, but the collapsed snow did not fall to the ground, but melted into water in the air. There was a bang, and a large amount of snow poured on our heads and faces, but the snow water did not last long before it was completely evaporated.
The Sun Realm is the ultimate ability. The perverted requirement of draining the caster's entire mana at once is enough to reflect its power sideways. Within a radius of 50 meters, the high temperature in the interior can melt the rock and burn through the steel. As long as it is not our allies, they will be harmed by the heat. As for the snow, they naturally cannot withstand the high temperatures that are high enough to melt the rock and steel.
Draining the mana of the trumpet Silver Moon, I swallowed a pill of mana rejuvenating pills and transformed back into a full Purple Sun state. It's convenient to use two numbers together.,Start to change to another one when you fill the blue.,Anyway, the experience value is shared by the two numbers.ć
"It's so good, even the water is dry." Nightshade doesn't like water, and he doesn't like damp places.
Xiao San looked very intoxicated and said, "It's been a long time since I've taken such an enjoyable sauna!" Master, how many times will you come next time? ā
"You think I'm a charcoal furnace, huh? Also take a sauna! Hurry up and go back to the Phoenix Dragon Space. Nightshade, you should go back first. I don't need you here for the time being. ā
After retrieving the two demon pets, he walked out of the big pit on the top of the snowdrift, but he suddenly felt his feet slip as soon as he took a step, and then the whole person had a close contact with the ice, and then the whole person rushed down the snowdrift all the way down the ice and slid out for a few hundred meters before stopping. The temperature is so low that some of the freshly melted snow flows down the snowdrift as water, only to freeze again as it flows, creating a slide-like ice ramp on the snowdrift.
Carefully got up and slammed the ice with the front of his toes, and with a thud, the ice blade under the bottom of the combat boot bounced out. The magic dragon suit matches the all-terrain, and the ice surface is also trivial. I just skated leisurely all the way to the ice cave of my memory. It didn't take long for the rather large entrance to be discovered.
It's a little different from the last time I came, this time the entrance to the cave was actually sealed with a layer of ice, but the ice thickness was not high, and I smashed open the ice and entered the cave very lightly. The ice city I saw last time was ahead, and it seemed to be getting a lot prettier. Strange rays of light shone on the walls of the ground, which were composed entirely of ice. But after looking at it for a while, I realized that something was wrong.
This ice cave is located in a canyon and does not see sunlight itself. The reason why the cave is not too dark is entirely because the ice has a better reflective effect. Even if there is a light source here. It shouldn't be flashing and flashing, and the natural light source is stable. Doesn't flicker, and besides, if I remember correctly, there should be a row of ice monsters standing on top of the wall, but none of them are on it now. If you look closely, you can see that there are still a lot of broken ice blocks under the bare city walls, and it is clear that there have been fights here.
As if the situation was not normal, I carefully put away the ice blades on my combat boots and pulled out the ice spikes that were more suitable for fighting. Unlike speed-oriented skates, these ice spikes provide enough adhesion to keep me steady in battle. Cautiously approaching the frozen wall, and after making sure there was no danger around, I flew directly onto the top of the wall.
As soon as I landed on top of the wall, I was sure of my judgment. There are a large number of cubes of ice arranged horizontally on the top of the entire wall, and from the words and patterns carved on them, it can be roughly determined that these were once the bases of ice sculpture monsters, but now the ice sculptures are gone, or they are still there. This was not a contradiction, as the ground was littered with broken ice, some of which were clearly recognizable as the claws or head of some ice monster.
Inside the city walls is a very beautiful Chinese-style city, except that the building materials are all ice. At this time, however, the city was very fragmented, and the streets were littered with broken ice. They come from the ice statues of the guards here and the nearby buildings, some of the buildings in the city are quite badly damaged, and the buildings that are clearly destroyed are roughly in a straight line.
Judging from the traces of the battle, this place was invaded, but the invaders should have only one person, or a small team, anyway, there were not many people, otherwise the destroyed parts should be scattered all over the city, not distributed in a line.
"White waves, darts." I opened the phoenix dragon space and summoned Bai Lang and darts to help. "Bai Lang, sniff carefully, see how many people this smell comes from?"
Bai Lang sniffed a little and determined the other party's situation. "There are three other scents besides the smell of the city itself, but I can't be sure exactly what the three creatures are. However, there was a hint of blood in the air, and there should have been an injured human, but it wasn't bad, because the smell was very weak. ā
"And where are they going?"
"Over there." The white wave light yƬ determined the direction.
I threw the dart out, activating the Soul Mage's ability to summon Soul Control Bannon. "Fit, and then go see how it goes."
The darts and the Bannon flail collided in the air, then disappeared in a flash. The combined darts are as fast as lightning, and the movements are already fast, and they are not visible at all. Bai Lang and I cautiously walked forward following the scent, and in less than a minute, we received a message from the darts using telepathic contact. Dart saw someone in front of him fighting a large group of ice statues, and there were three individuals on the other side, two of them in the form of a beast. I immediately let the darts stand and see, and we sped over.
It's weird. The ice was fine before we fell off the cliff, but someone got there first, where did they come from? Or are they themselves in this canyon?
