Compared to the dark green eyes of the mutated creatures that lurked under the skin of the wilderness, the ice field was obviously barren and bleak. The only thing that seemed to permeate the ice sheet was the roaring cold wind that permeated the entire ice sheet, and the snow that was messy in the cold wind, carrying ice chips and radiation.

Eris, the former sleeper of House Cardivan, promised Lo that she would meet him when the wilderness could no longer accommodate him and she finally chose to set foot on the icefield.

Luo stood at the edge of the wilderness, looking at the ice field that seemed to be in two worlds with the sweet and rancid smell of the wilderness, and finally smiled at the figure reclining on the ice field on top of a hideous locomotive.

He was greeted not by the former "Hurricane Girl" Eris, but by his own creditor, Steven, who had a shotgun that was large enough to rival the "Little Cannon" and wore a black blindfold.

Steven was still the same as he had been, leaning on the big locomotive, looking down at the cold muzzle of the gun in his hand with his only one-eye.

Steven heard the slight creak of footsteps on the soft snow, and he reluctantly took his eyes off the muzzle of the gun and looked at the man who had stepped into the ice.

"Hey man, you're a little later than I expected, I've been squatting in this damn place long enough. Where are you going? If you drop by, I might be able to give you a ride! ”

Steven patted the back seat of the locomotive, which had already covered a thick layer of blue and white, grinned, and walked forward quickly, stretched out his arms, and hugged Lo tightly.

"It's nice to see you alive again! Lowe. ”

Steven didn't hug Lo for long, he still remembered the artwork that Lo left in Nirvana Town, and it was the original idea of "being friends with Lo is happier than being enemies" that made him rush here as soon as he received Heidi's communication.

Heidi promised him the kindness of the Begu family, and the friendship of Lowe.

"Steven, I still don't seem to have enough gold to pay off my debts, my friend."

Luo decided to put the rugged but not careless guy in front of him into the category of his friend, maybe just because he was dealing with the right person here, or maybe just because Luo felt that he needed a friend right now.

Friendship between men is sometimes so wonderful, maybe just a hug and a pleasantry is enough to be a partner who gives his back to the other person. Of course, this kind of hug and greeting needs to be chosen at the right time, such as when Lowe is depressed.

Lowe still remembers to mention the debt between the two and expressed a slight embarrassment at not being able to repay the account in time.

"Debt? Are you talking about my blue-eyed girl's tuition in Nirvana? Ha ha! Your Excellency Heidi has paid it off for you, and I feel that I have taken a great advantage, and it is my honor to be of service to Her Excellency Heidi, and your friendship is not something that can be bought casually with gold. ”

Steven didn't ask about Lowe's purpose for entering the icefield, just as Lowe didn't care how Steven happened to be here.

His Excellency Steven, who had clearly risen to the rank of dominant, had always had a fanatical obsession with becoming Heidi's dependent. Heidi, on the other hand, is definitely a special being who is good at using any resource.

"Luo, what are your plans? Unlike the wilderness, the lone wolf is in the midst of war, and it is extremely difficult to survive in the smoke-filled ice field. So, man, would you like to consider doing it with me? I've been mixing pretty well lately! ”

The Williams family behind Steven is a medium-sized family attached to the Cardivans, and he would like to be able to attract someone like Lowe who can become a dependency of Lord Heidi, even though his family's situation is not as good as he says.

Even if it's just a partnership, Steven is extremely happy. At the very least, under the protection of the Williams family, Lowe is less likely to die in the ice field.

"Steven, before I give you a definitive answer, can you give me a brief introduction to the rules of the icefield? I don't seem to know as much about it as you think, my friend. ”

With a smile on his face all the time, Lowe spoke calmly, and shifted his deep black pupils from Steven's slightly reddened old face to the end of the gray ice field.

Steven has never been a qualified actor, and his performance is still as clumsy as ever, but there is already a hint of warmth in Lowe's heart.

"You're not familiar with it? But it doesn't matter, you're a dependent of Lord Heidi, and that's enough! You mean, Lord Heidi didn't talk to you about the rules of the ice field before you came? ”

Steven's one-eyed frenzy was terrifying, and he felt that he had found a golden opportunity, a chance to become a dependency of Lord Heidi.

Lord Heidi was definitely busy, too busy to even take care of her one or her only dependent. Does this mean that she needs one more dependent to share her worries?

"Join a force and use your guns to plunder land and resources that don't belong to you in exchange for whatever you want, including gold, ranks, or chips! Heidi's dependents shouldn't be short of gold, and you don't look like a person who values honor, so you should be here for the chips, right? Lowe. ”

The smile on Steven's face faded, and his words became much more cautious. He didn't want to mislead Luo because of his momentary negligence, and chose the wrong force, which was very fatal on the ice field.

"Forces?"

Luo originally thought that Steven would say "family", but the other party replaced it with the word "power", which made Luo Luo a little puzzled.

"Yes, man! The ice fields are not like the wilderness, where there is no need for any reason to kill, and there is more than one family force. There are only enemies left here, except for partners. ”

"Of course, the 'enemies' I call are not only those terrible mutated creatures on the ice field, but also the priests who stay in the temples deep in the ice fields, as well as other forces from the wilderness, and even other forces within their own family! ”

Steven's face showed a hint of hideousness, and his voice revealed a bit of resentment, he didn't seem to mix well with his family's power.

Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, he felt that the ice field seemed to be more cruel than he had originally expected.

"Just like you and me, if you end up choosing a different force from me, then whether we are friends or enemies on the ice field depends on the mood of either side. Of course, this does not affect our feelings in the wilderness. ”

"In short, in the ice field, choosing the forces you want to rely on is the key to survival."

Steven wanted to tell Lowe as much as he could. After all, Lowe was the only person who was attached to Lord Heidi, and he vaguely felt that Lord Heidi was extremely protective.

Lowe understood what Steven was trying to say, similar to what Her Excellency Amandina had told herself.

Whoever grabs it is whomever it is, as long as your fist is hard enough, you don't have to worry about snatching it from whomever you want.

"In this way, the biggest forces in the ice field should be the two great families of Khadiwen and Begu. After all, the combat power of the Iron Wolf Regiment and the Black Armor Legion is absolutely incomparable. ”

Lowe felt that this might not be his best choice. If he threw himself into either side of the Begu family of the latter of Kadivan, he might be able to live a prosperous life, but he would never get enough leverage to get what he wanted.

"The Predators belong to the Cardiffon family, but it doesn't mean that the Cardivin family has such a force. After all, the Cardiven family has enough existence and needs more chips to sober up, and the Predator Wolf Group doesn't buy these people's accounts too much. Like the sleepers, and the cleaners. ”

"Steven, my friend, do you mean that it's not just families that have their own power?"

Luo's eyes stared at the man in front of him, who had re-carried his big gun on his shoulder, and asked softly.

"Of course! Families, corporations, mercenary squads, and even individuals with enough dependents can build their own power! You can even have your own power, provided that you can keep yourself alive after you register. ”

Lowe thinks it's a great thing to be friends with Steven.

"So, Lord Steven, can you drop by and sign me up?"

Steven was stunned for a moment, then grinned again.

"You're going to sign up? But it doesn't matter, you're a dependent of Lord Heidi, and that's enough! Why didn't I think to sign up for it myself! It seems that His Excellency Heidi chose you as his dependent, there is still a certain reason, at least you are crazy enough! ”

The sky of the ice field was gloomy and vast, and the sky was full of gray-yellow clouds, and the cold wind that cut the skin of the face like a knife roared angrily, frantically tearing at the snowflakes that were messy throughout the ice field.

All existence between heaven and earth is tilted in the roar and tearing of the cold wind,**, and succumbs powerlessly. Then bend, curl up, tremble, and begin to respond violently.

In this ice field, which was absolutely unfamiliar to him, Lowe finally gave up the way he was accustomed to running, and chose to sit in the back seat of Steven's all-terrain locomotive.

While Steven was driving the locomotive and running wildly on the ice field, Heidi in the Marquis Begu's private research base was sitting in the cold and empty test room, quietly staring at the large screen in front of him.

Instead of those cold, flickering numbers on the screen, there is a monotonous and depressing system login screen.

She had already logged into the Icefield Conquest faction system, and without hesitation, she completely erased her name from the forces to which the Cadivon Cleaners belonged, and lightly drew a line across the screen.
