What's it like to glide through a sea of crimson radiant blood?

With each turn, a red snowflake blew behind him, and the whole snow field was emitting a ghostly halo, as if it was screaming against the darkness of the sky.

Zhang Lan and Hera skied together for a full hour, and only stopped at the top of a small hill before stopping, watching the mighty Xuanwu City under the mountain dragging 28 affiliated cities forward, Hera put away her skis and sat down on the snow tiredly.

"Take a five-minute break, we're heading back." Zhang Lan was worried that they would be left behind by this huge convoy, and they would not survive for more than two days without any supplies in the wilderness of Antarctica.

"No, you have to wait at least 10 minutes." Hera insisted as she looked at the countdown displayed on her holographic screen.

"Little sister, what are you going to do? Antarctica is also home to wild animals, and most of them are social creatures. "Zhang Lan has read in detail the encyclopedia of mutations of wild beasts under the black clouds of Antarctica.

Seals are over 10 metres long and can crush up to half a metre of ice in a single bite, and Antarctic wolves have a terrifying sense of smell and red fur that can lurk in the snow for up to 10 days before waiting for an opportunity.

The Antarctic Skua has grown into a terrifying creature with a wingspan of more than 10 meters, and its two sharp claws can easily tow any snow armored vehicle into the sky.

There is also a creature called the Antarctic giant bug, which specializes in traveling under the ice, with a body length of more than 100 meters and a diameter of nearly 2 meters, which can launch a surprise attack from anywhere.

And the most terrifying creature in Antarctica has become the emperor penguin, this once cute little guy who can't walk, has now evolved into a 2-meter-tall behemoth, the fins have become reversed, the beak has become file-shaped, and the most terrifying thing is that they have a strong social habit, and it is the migration of more than 10,000 individuals, giving birth to offspring and hunting nature.

As long as they walk, no living creature is left, not even the ferocious seals, the insidious skuas, and the greedy Antarctic wolves have to hide far away.

This is also the reason why the Frozen Syndicate must adopt this kind of mobile city, because once the Antarctic Emperor Penguin Colony discovers that the city exists, even the towering walls cannot stop their advance, and they will either fight every year or die.

"Don't be nervous, just look up, look up, look up at the sky!" Hera shouted in surprise.

Zhang Lan looked up puzzled, only to see that above the sky, a brilliant blue band of light suddenly appeared, hanging above the black clouds like the Milky Way, decorating the originally cold and ruthless black clouds as if they were as bright as silk.

"This is? Aurora? Zhang Lan was stunned, you must know that in this polluted environment, the only celestial phenomenon that human beings can observe is either acid rain or hail, not to mention the aurora, not even a star can be seen.

But now, Zhang Lan is 100% sure that what she sees is the aurora.

"Actually, there is nothing surprising, Antarctica is the thinnest place in the atmosphere on the earth, and the thickness of black clouds deposited here is also the thinnest, only about 100 meters on average, under a specific time and air current, black clouds will disperse fine cavities, so that the aurora can be projected down, at this time of year, as long as you are on the top of this mountain, you can see the aurora, so I will not miss it." Hera looked at the blue band of light and said meaningfully.

"Nature is the true Creator, and we humans have failed Him." Zhang Lan regretfully sat beside Hera.

"I don't want to discuss any big principles or philosophies with you, I brought you here because the aurora is too beautiful and I am too lonely." Hera rarely hit Zhang Lan so bluntly, "In the past, when my husband was still alive, he would accompany me here every year to see the aurora, and he didn't come out again two years before he died. My husband died of cancer, a blood-type cancer, mainly because of the radiation curse that came from the land, which we call 'Frozen Death'. ”

"In other groups, the average age of the general population is about 70 years old, while in Antarctica, it's only 60. Because no matter how we isolate and evolve, there will still be radioactive materials that will mix with our food, water, and even genes, and take our lives when necessary. We are frozen men, and we should have suffered such a curse, even a high-ranking chairman. In the last two years of my husband's life, he had almost lost his ability to speak, and I took care of everything for him. ”

"Why not explain? As you said, no one will tell you all those messy scandals. Zhang Lan was puzzled.

"Explain what? My husband didn't die in my bed? What could be more bragging rights for a man? How nice is it that even if my husband is dead, it is enviable? I don't want to tell anyone that he was incoherent before he died, he couldn't even control his urine and urine, he was trembling and couldn't say a word completely, he loved me? ”

Hera was laughing, but the tears in her eyes were so dazzling against the aurora borealis.

"You're a good wife and a good chairman." Zhang Lan said sincerely.

"No, I'm not good enough, at least not good enough to make your heart flutter." Hera looked at Zhang Lan directly, the charming eyes with the corners of her eyes upward, there were so many stories in them that Zhang Lan couldn't decipher.

"Hera, you deserve better, I'm not the best choice, the war between me and Gu Xuan is a long fight, even if you follow me, you may become a widow again at any time." Zhang Lan couldn't think of a better way to intimidate.

"After talking to you for so long, did you hear me say a word of regret for marrying my husband? He was 20 years older than me, just as I was your age, and I met me at the age when I met you, and I told him that we were not suitable, but he said that if it was not suitable, he would let me go. I have never seen him such a good gentleman, with manners and self-cultivation, just like you. ”

Hera's good impression of Zhang Lan stems from this trace of similarity, the same concern, and the same kindness that she hopes to hide.

"Hera, I won't be a substitute for your husband, I can't, at least I can't love you as much as he does." Zhang Lan sighed.

"Who told you he loved me?" Hera's words completely knocked Zhang Lan down, "When my husband found me, he was already 40 years old, he wanted to change his fate, he needed a smart partner who could help him rush to a high position, obviously, I am such a person, a genius girl with an IQ of more than 170." ”

"For my husband, from the very beginning I was a tool, in life, in power, in management. I was a tool like no other in the world, and I had helped him become the king of the group. The question is, what do you want from me? I can be your tool if you want to. "Herana's begging note is heartwarming.

"But I just want ...... You can do your best, don't live for anyone, don't be an accessory to anyone, you are no longer a tool, but an independent chairman, the leader of one party, who determines the life and death of 8 million people, you should have your own thoughts. Zhang Lan gently patted Hera's shoulder.

"This is the biggest insult I have ever suffered in my life, I took the initiative to wag my tail and beg for mercy, willing to be your tool, but was indifferently refused." When she said this, Hera laughed knowingly again, "But this is also the most touching love story I have ever heard in my life, and there is no one." ”
