Chapter 446: True Feelings and Real Scenes-Ice Fields (2)
Due to the lack of sun, Xu Ran couldn't intuitively judge "what time of day in the 'Ice Field' world was", but judging by the time when he entered the other 'True Love Scenes', he felt that it would be the morning of local time.
As for how to survive in such a cold 'ice field' world, Xu Ran's intuitive judgment was: 'You should go to the hilly area to find a suitable habitat'; but just now he had observed the surrounding environment in the air, and preliminarily judged that even if there were animals living on the surrounding land, the number should be very small, after all, he had not observed any traces of animal activity just now, and so far, he had not heard the sound of birds and beasts existing.
If he wanted to find food in this area, Xu Ran felt that the most likely place was the water surface he saw, as long as there were fish there, the food problem would be solved.
After making such a judgment, Xu Ran did not act in the direction of the hills first, but directly used the 'Spiritual Power Protector' ability to float himself wrapped in the 'Spiritual Power Shield' towards the water; Xu Ran's purpose is: 'After finding out whether there are fish in the water body first, and finding a suitable habitat in the hills, we have to go back to the water body to investigate the food situation, which will lead to more wrongful roads.' ’
Although Xu Ran was currently in the state of 'Spiritual Power Imperial Object' and his horizontal floating speed was not fast, but the total distance was only about 100 meters, and he quickly approached the shore of the water body; The air temperature of Xu Ran's current environment is definitely below zero, but he can't tell how many degrees below zero, and Xu Ran, who is suspended on the shore, finds that the endless water surface is not frozen, and it is flowing slowly from left to right.
With Xu Ran's current mental force field value of 45, his 'mental force field space' can reach a coverage range of 22 meters around the body, and in the area he can observe, the deepest part of the water body can be more than 6 meters deep, and the closer it is to the shore, the shallower it is, the bottom of the water is mainly composed of stones and a small amount of sediment, although no fish were found in the water, it is completely certain that there are fish in the water.
Several species of fish were found in the water, but Xu Ran had not found any species he knew for the time being; However, according to the flow of this water surface, Xu Ran judged that this water body should be river water or river water, not seawater; If you don't feel that the weather is cold and you don't want to test the water, Xu Ran can directly try the taste of the water, so that you can immediately judge whether it is seawater or fresh water.
Xu Ran didn't feel hungry, so he didn't have the desire to go fishing immediately, but when he was suspended on the shore to observe, he suddenly had an idea: "Now the temperature in the air is colder than the temperature under the water, if you use the 'spiritual power shield' in the water, shouldn't it be warmer, and you are in Liao Tianye on a cold day, it is not very convenient to practice the 'spiritual power object', it is better to go to the water to practice." Mental power shield', which can not only have a bit of a cold effect, but also exercise mental power ability by the way. "Xu Ran judged that with his current 'spiritual power shield' ability to resist blows, he should be able to withstand the pressure of the water body.
So, Xu Ran raised the 'spiritual power shield', floated above the deeper water surface, and then slowly let it fall to the water, at this time he had given up the supporting power of the 'imperial object upward', and let himself fall to the water surface with the 'spiritual power shield' wrapped around him.
At present, the 'spiritual power shield' that envelops Xu Ran is a round ball with a radius of 1.5 meters; When the sphere wrapped Xu Ran into the water, the deepest part of the sphere only sank into the water for less than 150 mm, and then it did not continue to sink; Xu Ran understood that this was due to the buoyancy of the water body, and if he only relied on the weight of his body, he would not sink any further, unless he applied a downward force.
However, his current 'spiritual power shield' is large enough, so the buoyancy is also large, and he wants to make such a 'spiritual power shield' submerged in the water, so he needs to exert a considerable downward force, so Xu Ran first took measures to adjust the size of the 'spiritual power shield', so that it can be reduced from a radius of 1.5 meters to a radius of 1 meter, so that he can support this 'spiritual power shield' with a radius of one meter, and he can also save mental power relatively.
When the 'spiritual power shield' is adjusted to a radius of 1 meter, the sphere enters the deepest place on the water surface, and it does not change much, that is, it sinks into the water close to 200 mm, and then, it must also apply a downward external force (the ability to resist objects under the direction) in order to make the sphere continue to go deep into the water; Xu Ran mentally calculated, the volume formula of the sphere is 4πRRR/3, when R=1, if the sphere sinks into the water, the buoyancy of the water body deducts the weight of his body, and there is still 4000 kg of upward buoyancy; With his current Spiritual Power Guardianship ability, he simply couldn't sink such a 'spherical Spiritual Power Shield' into the water.
Xu Ran could continue to reduce the size of the 'spherical spiritual power shield', but in that case, he would not be able to maintain a natural standing in the shield, and he would inevitably have to curl up his body in this 'spherical spiritual power shield'; In the spherical spiritual power shield', after deducting his own weight, the buoyancy generated by the water body still has more than 400 kilograms left, which is not something that his current 'spiritual power and object ability' can overcome.
However, this 'spherical spiritual power shield' with a radius of 1 meter was already pocket-sized, and Xu Ran felt that if he adjusted the size in a small place, he was afraid that he would not be able to comfortably accommodate himself in it.
At first, Xu Ran just thought, "I want to dive into the water with the 'Spiritual Power Shield' and try to see if it has an effect on the cold." "I didn't expect him to be able to submerge his 'Spiritual Power Shield' into the water, and this challenge really sparked Xu Ran's interest even more, and he now began to think about how to let himself be submerged under the 'Spiritual Power Shield'.
Since the spherical 'Spiritual Power Shield' did not match his plan for the time being, Xu Ran thought of adjusting the shape of the 'Spiritual Power Shield'; Mingyue's intrusion, when he was sleeping, he also built a barrel-shaped spiritual power barrier at a position of 200 mm around his body, and at that time, he had already practiced this move quite successfully, even when he was asleep, he was still able to keep this mental power barrier always functioning.
So Xu Ran adjusted the external dimensions of his 'spiritual power shield' into an oval cylinder, if this oval cylinder is converted into a cylinder of equal volume and height, it is a cylinder with a diameter of 0.5 meters and a height of 2 meters, when it is completely submerged in the water body, the buoyancy it is subjected to, after deducting Xu Ran's own weight, there is a surplus of 200 kilograms; this surplus is not too far from Xu Ran's 'spiritual power and object carrying capacity'.
After adjusting the size of the 'Spiritual Power Shield', Xu Ran remained vertically in the water, and at this time, the natural balance position of his body in the water was below the middle of his thigh, below the horizontal plane.
Of course, if he wants to maintain a standing posture and stand upright in the water all the time, the balance of this body also needs his 'mental power and material ability' to maintain, otherwise he may not be able to stabilize his body just by the slow flow of this water body.
And when Xu Ran exerted 'vertical downward force' on himself, the water line of the water body fluctuated up and down from his chin to his chest, which was the result of his ability to resist objects, the buoyancy of the water body, and the repeated action of the 'spiritual power shield'; although Xu Ran did not have the ability to bury the water body in his entire body, but even so, he felt that it was not as cold as before.
The reasons for this state of affairs are: first, although the temperature of the water body is close to freezing, it is already above freezing, which is higher than the air temperature in the air; Again, due to the outward heat dissipation of Xu Ran's body and the fact that the 'Spiritual Power Shield' itself also has a certain thermal insulation effect, the air wrapped in the 'Spiritual Power Shield' is also gradually being heated, so Xu Ran feels not too cold.
It's just that in this much-shrunken 'Spiritual Power Shield', the air it can wrap is also limited, so when the oxygen content contained in it is reduced to a certain level, Xu Ran also needs to exchange the air inside the 'Spiritual Power Shield' with the outside air, so as to ensure that he can breathe fresh air.
When Xu Ran's 'Spiritual Power Shield' was practiced in place, it would definitely have a perfect thermal insulation effect, which he was very sure of, after all, he already knew this from his groping during the barbecue. It's just that his current ability can't make the 'spiritual power shield' that wraps his whole body perfectly play a heat-insulating effect, but Xu Ran has mastered the method of this kind of practice, which is also what he explored by himself when he was roasting, and what he needs now is to practice this skill more in place, and practice this skill more profoundly.
Therefore, Xu Ran, who was floating in the water body at this time, liked the current situation, because he had already found the direction for himself to practice the 'spiritual power and object ability' in this 'ice field' world, one of which was to constantly exert vertical downward force to himself, exercise and improve his 'spiritual power and object carrying capacity', and the other was to practice the 'spiritual power shield' that could fully play a role in heat insulation.
