The three of us looked at each other, we all escaped from the dense lightning of the valley of death, and no one could be struck by lightning and still be unharmed, the only explanation was that the professor should have been panicked and dazzled.

"More than thirty of us crossed the valley of death, and more than half of us died inside." The palace lord frowned and asked puzzledly. "But the twelve of them, why did they come out unharmed?"

I can't answer that question either, but the professor didn't write the name of the recruiter either, so he didn't even know who he was recruiting.

Then looking down, the place they passed through was the same as on Han Jin's map, Tian Ji's eyes suddenly lit up: "Since no one knows the location of Kunlun Jinque, but Han Jin has a map in his hand, it shouldn't have been drawn by someone who came here forty years ago." ”

"That doesn't make sense, since someone has already found the Kunlun Golden Gate forty years ago, why did the gold lord let us follow Han Jin here?" Gong Jue rubbed his frozen hands on the fire beside him that melted and froze corpses.

"Could it be that these twelve people didn't succeed forty years ago?" I frowned.

"Don't guess, look at what else is written in the notes." Tian Ji said.

Then we looked down, and the twelve men also came to the ice cave.

After turning the page of the notebook was a sketch of a living skink, the four-legged snake that had been stewed in our broth, and it happened that the twelve men had done the same, and in the process of dissecting the skink, it caught the attention of one of the biology professors.

According to the notes, the biology professor was shocked to tell him that this creature is called the ice lizard, which is a creature that lives in the extremely cold glacier, and has been extinct for a long time, and the ice lizard is carnivorous and extremely aggressive, so there is little research on this, and it is generally believed that the ice lizard is a solitary creature, but this view was overturned in the ice cave, confirming that the ice lizard is social living.

Flipping back further, the handwriting of the notes became intermittently scribbled and messy, presumably written in a panicked situation.

…… I should...... Die...... Over here...... Don't ...... in the ice cave Stop...... Stay...... Yes...... There is a bully ......

I was shocked, although I didn't understand the meaning of the latter words, but it was clearly a warning from the professor before he died.

Click!

The sound of cracking next to us startled us, the corpse that was completely frozen, finally melted and cracked by the bonfire, the corpse poured out of the freeze crookedly, the three of us retreated in horror, the corpse could not find a good flesh and skin, the body was full of holes and flesh and blood blurred, and the eyes widened in pain until death, and the expression had a feeling of pain.

Because of the reason that it was frozen, the corpse was still well preserved, and it was as if it had just died in front of us, and the traces of bite could still be clearly seen on the exposed white bones.

I remembered that the ice lizards were carnivorous, aggressive, and social in the last paragraph, and the last paragraph was a warning not to stay in the ice cave......

Yes! Yes!

There was a heart-rending scream from the place where we were resting, I quickly put away my notes and took off the backpack on the ice corpse, and when we ran back, I saw in the light of the flashlight that there were ice lizards all around, which were a little different from the ones we had captured before, about twenty centimeters long, most of the body was tails, and the scales covered all over the body, the black lines I saw before stabbed up, as if they were enraged.

The eyelids are capable of turning around, but their lips are constantly opening and closing to reveal sharp teeth on both sides, and the ice lizard is a surprise attack when the campfire is extinguished, and the first to be attacked is the person in charge of the perimeter who is on guard.

When we arrived, we could only see two corpses with only skeletons left in the flashlight, and the entire ice cave was full of ice lizards as far as the eye could see, and the rustling sound of crawling came from all directions.

The twelve people who had been here forty years ago had also suffered the same attack, judging from the ice corpses found so far, at least two of them had died here, although Han Jin's expression was a little frightened, he still quickly calmed down, and let the rest of the people gather together, their marksmanship is very exquisite, they will never shoot blindly, and the point shot always kills the closest ice lizard.

Tian Ji took advantage of the chaos to pick up a gun from the ground and blocked me and Gong Jue behind him, these well-trained people under the command of Han Jin quickly recovered their composure from the panic, I suddenly realized why these people would bring so many guns and ammunition, and when they were killed through the minefield of the Valley of Death, they would rather be struck by lightning than give up their weapons, it seems that Han Jin came prepared, but who told him this?

Tian Ji should feel a lot more solid with a gun in his hand, but in the face of countless and dense ice lizards in the ice cave, even if all the ammunition is gone, he can't rush out, Tian Ji turned around and asked us to quickly find a way.

"The people who came here forty years ago and we have all caught ice lizards, so it can be seen that the ice lizards did not attack at the beginning, when did they start......" Gong Jue raised his head after a moment of calm thought. It's after the bonfire goes out! These ice lizards are supposed to be afraid of fire! ”

I hurriedly asked everyone to light the torches, and the approaching ice lizards in the firelight really stopped moving forward, and their eyes turned blood-red in the firelight, revealing bloodthirsty and cruel rage, Han Jin told everyone to quickly retreat and leave the ice cave as soon as possible.

Han Jin said as he asked his men to pour gasoline on the ground, and when we retreated to a safe place and lit it, there was a sea of fire in front of us, and those ice lizards that were caught off guard were instantly buried in the sea of fire, and the screams and the smell of being burned echoed in the ice cave.

The rest of the ice lizards were afraid of the fire, and they were blocked by the wall of fire and made a shrill cry, and we hurriedly ran towards the exit of the ice cave.

Click!

A crisp cracking sound made us nervous, the sound came from the feet of the person in front of us, he stepped on the cold ice under his feet, the sound of cracking was particularly clear in this dead ice cave, the man carefully and slowly raised his feet, but the broken ice marks were still spreading, making a sharp and piercing sound tugging at our heartstrings.

The man's feet hovered in mid-air and didn't dare to move, and we vaguely heard the continuous cracking sound, I'm sure it didn't come from that crack, just as we hesitated, Han Jin suddenly grabbed the man's shoulders and dragged him back from the spot.

Cha!

With a crisp cracking sound, a sharp ice spike slammed into the place where the man had been standing, and we looked up in horror and were stunned, the ice cave above us was full of hanging ice picks, densely condensed on them, like countless sharp swords hanging above our heads, and any slight movement would trigger those ice picks to stagger.

The sound of cracking through the ice can trigger the icicle to break, and there is still a long way to go through this ice cave, and the sharp icicles completely cover our path, and if we accidentally trigger them, these icicles will fall one after another.

Just as we hesitated, we suddenly heard a loud roar behind us, which seemed to come from under the ice cave, and we slowly turned our heads in panic, and the wall of fire used to keep the ice lizard in the distance had been extinguished, and the rustling crawling sound was rapidly approaching us.

It stands to reason that the wall of fire barrier set up with gasoline, those ice lizards cannot pass through, let alone extinguish, Tian Ji took the gun on his back and asked others to immediately arrange another wall of fire, but before he could light the fire, the ice suddenly cracked, and the huge shock made us constantly shake under our feet, and we almost didn't stand firm.

Then we were shocked to see a huge giant ice lizard with a snow-white body about ten meters long breaking through the ice, its blood-red eyes radiating resentful killing, and roaring furiously at us.

I subconsciously squirmed the Adam's apple, the giant ice lizard swung its long tail, looking like a white dragon, there have always been rumors of Kunlun dragons in Kunlun Mountain, presumably this rumor is not groundless, this giant ice lizard should be the prototype of the Kunlun dragon, from a small ice lizard to such a big one, I really don't know how many years this giant ice lizard has lived in this Kunlun Mountain.

The last two words of the professor's notebook were Overlord, and I finally understand the meaning of these two words now, people who visited here forty years ago also encountered a giant ice lizard, and the dying professor had no time to describe this huge monster, I think what he was going to write down was, Overlord lizard!
