Episode 31

―Icebreaker Time―

.

In his ears, Ren Xiang's voice calling for help became weaker and weaker. Because of the afterimage at this time, he was in a state of deep sleep, so he didn't notice it for a long time.

I don't know how much time has passed, but he slowly opened his tired eyes. Looking at the darkness around him, he asked himself, "Are you dead?"

Whoosh - whoosh -

The brisk breeze carries a wisp of fresh breath after the rain, which affects the childhood memory of the afterimage. Let him see how he managed to escape in a village full of infected people that year.

"Help! Mommy ......"

"Ahh

"Mom! Ah......h

Looking at this fluctuating apocalyptic scene, the little daughter who squatted on the ground and cried. Let the afterimage become more and more sad as he becomes more and more conscious.

After being stunned for two or three minutes, the afterimage suddenly realized that this was not his childhood. But now, he is being sheltered in a strange dark space.

"W-what kind of place is this? Ah......h

"Welcome, to my subconscious."

The woman's voice was close. But no matter which way the remnant looked, he never found where she was. "You, where are you? Where am I? How can I get out......"

"I've been sleeping in this place for nine whole years. As long as you save me out, I, Song Beibei, will definitely promise you - how about finding and destroying the signal tower? ”

Instead of giving the Remnant an affirmative reply, she clarified her name and repeated the conditions of her salvation as if negotiating.

“……”

Her voice was complex and varied, and it sounded cheerful now.

"Song, Bei, Bei?" The remnant hung his head. He heard the time hand click around and make his mind think of all sorts of strange thoughts about escaping from here.

He is always inattentive when listening to people's speeches, and he has had such a small problem since he was a child.

"How?" Song Beibei raised the tone of her voice and asked the afterimage in hot pursuit.

"But, but, but- I, what am I going to do?" The remnant choked in his throat, but not from sadness.

"Close your eyes?" Song Beibei's voice immediately became very crisp, which made people listen to it very gently.

"Huh? Yes. ”

The well-behaved afterimage closed his eyes again, making his current self consistent with his real self outside, his movements and expressions. are in this kind of feeling as if they are drowning in the sea, gurgling and spitting white bubbles.

Call......

"Are you willing to resonate with me?" When Song Beibei said this, her voice sounded very sad.

"Aang, Aang." The afterimage didn't even think about it as usual, and hurriedly moved his head.

"Thank you, Comrade Remnant."

Suddenly, a strange-sounding wind sound suddenly whistled past the afterimage's ears.

"My name is Afterimage, not Comrade Afterimage."

The afterimage was a little nervous and hurriedly corrected. But at this time, he felt a very real feeling again, and he could even hear the sound of zombie infected people fighting......

"Afterimage!"

"Huh?" The afterimage suddenly opened his eyes. He gasped for breath and fell to the ground in fright as he faced the ice wall.

Bang dang!

"Uh-ah-" Ren Xiang tried his best to hold on, trying to regain the initiative and kill the zombie infected. Although I think so, how can it be so easy?

"Ahh

"Afterimage! What the hell are you doing? ”

"Ahh I'm coming, captain ......" The afterimage of his legs trembling in fright, he promised bitterly, but his movements seemed to be unable to turn over and stand up.

I don't want to be at this point-

Gurgle, gurgle......

What was that?

That was the first thought that crossed the Afterimage's mind. His eyes widened and he quickly turned his head back from the ground where he was lying on his stomach.

The wall of ice behind him suddenly cracked like shards of glass, as if it was about to explode, and the hole cracked bigger and bigger.

"Huh?!" The afterimage that had already been frightened to the ground, this time he scared away his wide eyes along with him.

Don't?

"Ahh ”

In an instant, the huge wall of ice cracked into countless pieces of ice spikes like shards of glass, facing the afterimage and the large area of ground behind him, and quickly flew away in an arc.

Collapse! Collapse! Collapse! Collapse! Collapse!

It was as if the soul was separated from the body, giving the afterimage a sense of what death was like.

Unexpectedly, the ice spikes that flew extremely fast flew directly through the body of the afterimage that was treated as air, and flew towards the large trees and tundra behind it.

He listened to his own choked sobs and realized that he was still alive. So, he opened his eyes and looked forward in disbelief and disbelief.

That's - Yuan Energy Warrior!

Song Beibei, who was covered in extremely cold armor, was standing under the ice layer that formed an arc-shaped hole at this time.

The hazy and beautiful ice sculpture, made of icy colors and a layer of light blue steel, perfectly transformed and covered the outer surface of Song Beibei's body......

The result is a more unique and more majestic looking battle protection layer. This is the Elemental Energy Battle Armor (Ice Armor) that is transformed by the resonance reaction of the Ice and Snow Crystal.

[Ice Crystal. Extreme Cold Form]

"Ah......h He fell to the ground, speechless in astonishment.

This is the woman who pestered herself all day, and this is the woman who said that she wanted to resonate with herself - Song Beibei.

"I," the Arctic Warrior with the obvious physical characteristics of a woman, sighed in a thick mechanical voice, "Finally reborn, hehe." ”

Looking closely, Song Beibei's outer armor shone with a unique blue light. Above the shoulder armor and the cuirasse, there was a lot of foggy white cold air drifting upwards.

When she clenched her fingers, the afterimage could clearly see that her fingertips were as sharp and terrifying as stingers.

"You...... You ......"

The Extreme Cold Warrior raised his head slightly, and at a glance he saw Ren Xiang lying on the ground in front of him, who was fighting fiercely against the zombie infected.

Ren Xiang tried his best to kick away the infected with the last strand of his body, and then took the opportunity to stand up. He gasped for breath before he could turn back to look at them.

"Ahh Are you the Primal Warrior? ”

The Extreme Cold Warrior did not give Ren Xiang a reply, but turned to face the zombie infected person who was staggering up, and shouted angrily through gritted teeth:

"I hope that all the infected people in the snowy mountains will die."
