Chapter 131: A Blessing in Disguise
Two or three black shadows rushed towards me under the ice, and I didn't know what to do. While I think it would be easy to dodge such an attack, the problem is that my whereabouts have been revealed. Since the monster under the ice surface lives in this lake, it is impossible for the people of the Snow Demon Castle, which is its neighbor, not to know the existence of this creature, and this creature will definitely not get along with the ice surface, so once it attacks, then I will definitely be revealed.
The moment the monster rushed towards me, countless plans flashed through my head, but none of them could keep me from appearing, and in the end, it was too late for me to dodge and talk about it. Now I don't care if it's exposed or not, my mind moved, and a dozen sharp steel nails popped out under my boots, instantly grabbed the ice, and followed me to kick the ground and jump out in an instant, and just a few tenths of a second after I left the place where I was standing, I only heard a bang, and the ice within ten meters of the place where I was standing before and around it all turned up, and the huge ice flew into the air with a large amount of lake water, feeling as if a bombshell had been hit on the ice.
Although he succeeded in dodging the monster's attack, there was no hope of hiding his whereabouts at this time. Not to mention that such a big movement is on the unobstructed ice, even in the deep mountains, it will definitely be seen. Sure enough, after the monster lifted the ice, I saw a white flash on the snow demon castle in the distance, and I didn't need to think about it to know that it was the reflection caused by the telescope lens, and the other party must be observing what was going on here.
Since concealment is no longer possible, I no longer carefully hide my whereabouts, although I did not remove the illusion, but the action was completely released. The monster rushed over with a single blow, and the dodge just now had obviously been revealed, but in the end, because the monster was too fast to move with my movement, it was missed. But now after the kinetic energy was released, the monster Lixuan pounced on me again, but I didn't dodge again, but rushed towards the monster.
The monster had been keeping an eye on my steps as it was rushing towards me under the ice, and now it was strange to hear my footsteps hurrying towards him, but the thing itself was not very intelligent, so it was strange, but it didn't pause, but continued to rush over. Just as our positions were about to overlap, the monster suddenly slammed upwards through the ice and stuck a huge head out of the ice, and if I hadn't reacted, it would have rushed into its mouth at the current level. Of course. I didn't rush over to feed it, of course I wouldn't be unresponsive, but instead of dodging, I threw Eternity out.
The Eternity I threw out immediately morphed into a giant drill in the air, then spun high and slammed into the monster's mouth. I don't know if the monster has a problem with its eyesight. When Yong Dan flew into the monster's mouth, it actually took eternity as me and bit down, the result was naturally a crisp sound, several of the monster's teeth were directly broken, but eternity did not decrease, still all the way forward, directly hit the monster's throat and then crushed the muscle tissue there and went all the way in, and finally forced out of a hole in the back of the monster's head, as for me, I followed Eternity and passed through the hole, and the bright red blood almost poured me through, Fortunately, Aimenes' vision doesn't stop because I've got blood on me, so it's not going to be visible for the time being.
Of course, when the people from the Snow Demon Castle come to check it out, there will definitely be people who will try to get close to the castle, but at least they won't directly appear in my existence.
After passing through the monster's body, I didn't stop long, but slid all the way down the monster's body, jumping directly into the big hole that the monster had knocked open, and into the lake below the ice. Although the water here is horribly low, my dragon suit is thermostat, so getting into the water is not too much of a problem for me. In fact, if you use a thermometer to measure, the problem of water under the ice is often much higher than the temperature in the air above the ice, the reason why people will freeze to death when they fall into the ice water is mainly because the clothes that enter the water will lose their ability to keep warm, which is the main reason why falling into the ice water will freeze to death, not that the water is really colder than the air, after all, the water will freeze at zero degrees, no matter how cold it is, the air can be cooled down to below zero.
Since the Dragon suit doesn't get into water, it's noticeably warmer for me under the surface than above. Now that I'm in the water, I'm starting to regret it, why didn't I think of diving under the ice? If I had known, I wouldn't have to crawl slowly on the ice, and as long as I didn't break through the ice, I didn't have to worry about being seen, which was much more comfortable than on the ice. What the? What to do if you encounter a monster, you ask? With my current level, unless I hit the recess of the upper level, can I be threatened by ordinary things? You must know that the Snow Demon Castle can be built on the lake, if there is a big one in this lake. , which has the possibility of allowing the player to repair on the lake
Little Dragon Girl. Come out and take me for a while. "Originally, I wanted to summon Ayana, but considering that the temperature in this place is too low, and the mermaid is a tropical creature, I can only make the dragon girl work hard.
In fact, in terms of underwater, the little dragon girl is much faster than Ayana, but compared to the huge size of the little dragon girl's body, Ayana's target is obviously much smaller, and her echolocation ability is also very useful. Although Shenlong is also a semi-aquatic creature, it does not have a sonar system, so its pathfinding ability is not as good as that of Ayana.
As soon as the little dragon girl appeared on the horn and stood on her head, the little dragon girl swam towards the center of the lake with poison. Although the little dragon girl is not as good as Ayana in terms of pathfinding ability and concealment, the dragon also has the benefits of the dragon, at least it saves me a lot of trouble. Along the way, we encountered several waves of monsters underwater, but those things were all run away after a long turn, and the breath of the dragon was too terrifying for these low-level creatures, and they didn't even have the courage to get close and ran away.
Although I had previously been exposed to the ice, I was able to reach the vicinity of the Snow Demon Castle after diving underwater. At first, I thought the castle was built on ice from a distance, but when I got to it, I realized that it wasn't like that. There is a protruding part of the center of the lake, but this part does not reach above the water, so it is not considered an island, but its top is only three or four meters deep from the water, which is enough for the castle to be used as a foundation.
It was very smooth to get close to the island before, but after I got to the vicinity of the island, I began to worry. How on earth am I going to get in without even noticing? If I want to go up to the ice to find the entrance, first, there must be more defense there than below, and second, once I get out of the water, I will definitely have to make a hole in the ice, I can hide the hole, but I can't hide it, it is easy to be exposed. But you can't dig a hole under the ice. This is underwater, and if I dig a hole into it, I will inevitably lead to the water of the castle, which will expose it faster than if I went in through the ice.
After thinking about it, I finally came up with a solution.
Holes are still made from the part below the surface of the water, but not from the walls of the castle, but from the island-like foundation below. Dig a horizontal hole, then dig a small section upwards, then summon Frost Snow to freeze all the water in the hole into ice, so that the hole is sealed. After finishing this little project, I started to dig holes in the top again, and soon I was able to dig the foundation of the castle. After digging through a few layers of rock shells, I actually dug up ice cubes inside, and it was the kind of big ice lump that froze into a whole piece, so I had to take back the other magic pets and call Xiaofeng out. It is not enough to dig a hole in the ice by brute force, and it is best to melt a hole with high temperature.
After burning through the ice layer more than three meters thick in one go, only a thin layer of ice remained, and for safety, I used Eternity as a heat transfer tool to let Xiaofeng open a small hole in the ice, and then released a ghost worm. Through the eyes of the ghost bug, you can see that this is an open area. The entire ice was a huge chore room, and in addition to the surrounding walls and hundreds of supporting columns, the room was filled with all kinds of supplies, and it looked like it was supposed to be a warehouse.
After making sure that there was no one on it, I widened the hole and drilled out, then retracted Xiaofeng and summoned the dart. This kind of place is too conspicuous, and the small magic pet of darts is suitable for use at this time.
Observing with one's own eyes is much clearer than that of a ghost bug. There are indeed a lot of materials piled up in the room, and the pillars and walls around are carved with ice circles, and the temperature in the warehouse can be about minus 100 degrees, a little warmer than the outside, but it is still absolutely cold.
Walking around the warehouse quickly led me to the upper level, but I was depressed when I saw this. This snow demon castle is really fucking personal, the connecting passage between the upper and lower floors is not connected by a staircase, but a spiral staircase-like passage, which is not only not staircased, but covered with a layer of bright ice shell that can illuminate people. With the smoothness of this spiral ladder and the angle of inclination, I don't expect any creature to climb it on its feet, but it would be nice to use it as a slide in reverse.
I looked at the spiral staircase helplessly, and thought about it for a long time, and finally I had to take the risk. I can't fly up the spiral ladder because I can't spread my wings, but I have a lot of gadgets in my dragon suit. With a movement of his wrist, the dragon tendon rope immediately flew out, and with a thud it was nailed into the brick crack of the roof above. If you shoot directly at the brick, you might notice the marks on the brick, so I targeted the brick joint. Of course, this is me, and even if the average person has that target, he can't find a weapon that can shoot those ice bricks.
Carefully hoisted himself up to the upper layer with the help of the dragon tendon rope, but the accident suddenly happened.
