260. Ice and snow
"Huh—am I kidding?" Zhuge Yun's face was like frost, and he said slowly.
"Y-Why are you doing that?"
"For the future, the coming calamity. I need the power to be in control. ”
"Upcoming ...... What kind of calamity? ”
"As you'll soon learn, with your abilities and knowledge, it should be a good help for me. But that's not enough, your strength is still too weak, and I'll help you get stronger. ”
When Zhuge Yun said these words, he was meticulous, and he couldn't see any expression on his face, and he was a little frighteningly calm.
"Hmm-"
"Go south and take your werewolf with you. There is the most advanced human civilization in this central continent, called Mine City, which is now my sphere of influence and the place where many of my servants gather. ”
"Central Continent? God, what the hell is going on in this world? Su Zhe said in astonishment.
"You will soon experience for yourself the mercy of the world, take this thing, and it will call you in my time of need."
After Zhuge Yun finished speaking, there was a small thing in his hand, like a piece of metal.
Su Zhe held it in his hand with some confusion, and with a "snap", the small metal seemed to be alive, wrapped around his wrist.
"It's ......"
"A communication device that I made myself, and I can use it to communicate anywhere on the surface of this planet."
"Hmm, is it like a cell phone?"
"Oh, almost, you'll know if you've used it, it's better than the best communication tool you've ever used, and try it with your bio-energy."
"Hum" Su Zhe tried it, a little bit of biological energy revealed all over his body, and a cloud of light and shadow shot out from his arm like a flashlight, reflecting the scene in the castle.
Zhuge Yun paused, and then said: "There is another thing, Yu Linglong also has the same device in her hand, if you want to see if her appearance has changed......
Su Zhe was stunned for a moment, blood red condensed in his eyes, looked down at his palm, shook his head slowly, and said, "No need, even if I see her, I don't know what to say, I'll just let her stay in my heart." After all, more than 400 years have passed. ”
Zhuge Yun nodded and said no more.
He knew why Su Zhe thought that.
When he first returned to Earth, he was faced with the fact that his once familiar home, relatives and friends were no longer there, and he was strange and things were not human, and he felt as if he was in another world.
One love in two eras, what happened to Su Zhe is just a microcosm of this world.
He wants to reverse the wrong ending and change the fate of the eternal rotation of ancient time and space.
"Wait a minute." Zhuge Yun's voice floated in.
"Take that container to Mine City as well, and tell them that the 'master' asked you to come."
"Master?"
Just as Su Zhe muttered in confusion, his feet were about to step out of the castle gate. He glanced back and saw that the young man was already floating in the air.
He didn't actually use his eyes to see, the third eye on his forehead that was condensed into a "spirit core" had already sensed it with a faint divine sense, and he was not mistaken, the young man without wings could indeed fly.
The barren courtyard was overgrown with vines, but the roses were still blooming on the gray walls, and the belladonna fruits had grown as tall as the window ridges and as big as apples, and the climate was indeed a bit unusual in flowering.
Su Zhe was a little stunned when he saw these belladonna fruits.
He knew that the "stone water" in the container was made from the juice containing highly toxic belladonna mixed with the extracts of other plants, and he remembered that at the beginning, Yu Linglong didn't know where to get this secret recipe.
But what made Su Zhe feel even more incredible was that young man, how he floated, this incident violated the common sense of physics and was obviously more abnormal.
"In Mine City, there are a few working labs there, you can continue to do your research, and I'll contact you when the time comes, and ask you to help me make something."
The faint voice had already gone away, and with Zhuge Yun leaving, there were also Avanna and No. 17.
The voice of the Skin's Wings was heard in the air, and the two Bloods had flown away.
"The host...... Master? Why is this man so powerful? Su Zhe saw the wolf clan kneeling down in front of him, and his mouth was still muttering.
He knew that these were the werewolves who had survived, and that the one in the lead was none other than Lupos. If all the young man said was true, then the fearful werewolf leader had been guarding his body here for more than 400 years.
Su Zhe looked up at the huge peaks of the rolling mountains in the distance, and the snow-white peaks reflected a silver glow in the morning light, and he couldn't recognize what kind of mountain it was.
The castle sits on a gentle slope halfway up a dark hillside, like a fortress jutting out of the ground, and in the other direction a huge object towers far beyond the town, like a bowl that slanted into the earth.
Su Zhe's heart suddenly chuckled, his memory was opened, and he vaguely remembered this place. It was used as a secret base by the military of the "Planetary Council" at the time, and this ancient castle was the office set up by the military at that time, and it is also the place where the "Titan Project" was first put into experiments.
"Well, where the hell did that young man come from? This world ...... How did it become like this? Su Zhe asked casually in a low voice.
"I don't know, but his strength is absolutely incredible. What's even more terrifying is that nothing can be hidden from him! Lupos shook his head with apprehension.
He turned to Lupos and asked, "Why did you choose this place as a place for my body to be stored in the first place?" ”
"It was a woman who told me, and she seemed to be a practitioner named 'Ispartine'. Your Excellency. ”
Su Zhe's face was a little pale, he closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and said, "Don't use the title of 'Venerable Lord' in the future, that young man...... will be our hosts. If it weren't for him, I don't think I would have woken up. ”
"Uh, yes. Actually, before you wake up...... I have already promised to lead my people to submit to him. Lumpos grinned meaningfully.
"Well, forget what I just said."
"What did you just say? I don't remember ......"
Su Zhe and Lu Bos looked at each other for a moment, and both smiled slightly.
"What do we do next?" Lupos asked.
"Do you know what Mine City is?"
——————
Located on the edge of the ice sea in the north, there is a town that has been forgotten by everyone.
Everything here is white or transparent, the buildings seem to be carved out of ice, and it seems that even the rising waves crash against the high cliffs, and the splashes are frozen, and the layers are gradually piled down from the top of the high cliffs, shaped into a cone shape by the forces of nature.
The roads in the town seemed to be paved with ice, but the gravel that had been padded by the people, and the twisted tall buildings of the town looked more and more eerie in the sunlight, and there was not a single human figure in the town.
It was once the largest settlement of pre-civilizations outside the Arctic Circle, and it is also one of the "Planetary Council" research bases hidden deep underground.
Beneath the ruined building, there are two deep passages, and the gate at the entrance is rusted, and the number 122 is faintly recognizable.
A huge crack tore open the ground, and the road collapsed with the thaw of the frozen rocks and soil, flanking the gap on what should have been a dwarf forest of black larch, now misshapen, tall and twisted, out of place elsewhere in the tundra.
Due to the severe cold climate in the permafrost area, the vegetation is tundra vegetation composed mainly of mosses and lichens, herbaceous plants and shrubs are rare, and common plants include heather, arctic orchid berries, golden phoenix and other flowering plants.
It's likely that no one has visited it for decades, and the nearest town is hundreds of kilometers away.
On a high cliff near the ice ocean, there is an old castle with a smooth exterior and ice ridges, which seems to be cracked due to earthquakes and other reasons, and the castle on top of it looks crumbling. But the soil, which is frozen harder than cement, has supported it for hundreds of years.
In summer, there is a thaw above the permafrost. Due to the permafrost barrier, the meltwater does not penetrate deeply, resulting in the supersaturation of the soil moisture above the permafrost, and the formation of an active layer, the thickness of the active layer is 1.3 meters to 6 meters.
Now this movable layer is bound by strange powers, and has become a natural barrier for the frozen castle.
It is absolutely impossible for people from outside to break into this place, let alone ordinary people, who will not come here at all, and even if they do, they are afraid that they will be targeted by a few sniper rifles outside.
Not only are there many sentry posts here, but there are also many secret sentry underground, and those blood tribes have dug secret passages in the permafrost below, and use it as a natural ice coffin, and usually sleep underneath.
At this moment, it is freezing outside, but in the cold hall of the castle, the scenery is beautiful and full of spring.
A man was kneeling on a thick red velvet couch, he was venting and working hard, and below him was a bewitching woman.
He is very strong, with a long beard on his face that extends to his temples, he is muscular, has huge hands twice the size of ordinary people, and is about 2.1-2.3 meters tall.
The woman underneath her was very beautiful, her long pale blonde hair dragged all the way to the floor of the hall, and her figure was undulating. If this charming woman is put in the crowd, just by looking back, she will definitely fascinate many men.
The strong man's forehead was bruised, and the condensation droplets slid down his spine, as if he had inexhaustible strength, but the other quiet women in red in the hall had already watched him fight for three hours.
These women were all dressed in extreme luxury, with long skirts covering their bodies, but their shoulders were exposed.
Like a group of noble ladies who came out of an old oil painting, they can still talk and laugh at this temperature, as if the cold weather is like a warm bathhouse for them.
Although the fireplace was blazing with fire, and from time to time some water vapor was steaming, it did not have any effect on the ice-shrouded hall, but it seemed to be lit to decorate the castle.
"Ahh
The strong man burst into tears, and the muscles and flesh all over his body were knotted, as if he was sprinting with the last trace of strength. The woman beneath him also reached its peak in his roar.
"Hmm-"
Just as the bewitching woman let out a long breath, her palm suddenly lifted, placed on top of the strong man's head, and slowly slid downward, as if she wanted to caress his face.
The strong man's eyes opened slightly, and he saw that the tips of his fingers suddenly grew nails like claws, red and sharp, and in surprise, his eyes widened, and he couldn't care about the fatigue of his body, and wanted to get up.
However, the next moment, the bewitching woman did not hesitate at all, and with a crisp cracking sound, the strong man's neck was twisted.
