"You're finally here again."

The boy's lips were pursed.

"Is that you? Are you ......" Richard exclaimed, he didn't understand why he came to this fixed cold and cold place every time, but he knew that it was no accident.

Even he occasionally wondered if it was a dream...... Or did he really come here, but the dusty memories were covered like the heavy snow here, and every time he remembered it, the sea was white and desolate......

"It's me." The boy moved his purple lips slightly, "Let's meet again." ”

"Who are you? Who is she .......?! Richard asked anxiously, trying to float towards the boy, he really had too many doubts in his heart, since the last time he dreamed of this mysterious cold place, the doubts have been hoarding in the bottom of his heart, who is she in this mouth? Why don't you blame her? What do you want to protect?

Richard's consciousness drifted to the boy's side, but there seemed to be a transparent barrier between them, preventing Richard from getting closer.

"...... me?" The corner of the boy's mouth pulled a hint of ridicule, and he didn't answer directly but said to himself, "Listen, the star of the Northern Earth Empire is rising, and when the comet cuts through the sky, it is the night of nebula bloodshed. The one you love will leave you, and you will betray your faith and go to the polar night......"

"To the polar night?" Richard lowered his head and repeated this sentence in confusion, raised his head for a long time and looked at the boy and asked, "What is the Star of the Northern Earth Empire?" The north of the galaxy is not the territory of mutants? What does Nebula Bleed Night mean? Who will leave me? ”

The boy pursed his lips, as if unwilling to say more, and after glancing deeply at Richard, he slowly closed his eyes and fell into dead silence.

"Don't sleep!" Richard's consciousness kept pounding against the barrier, trying to wake the boy up.

"Who are you? What does this mean?! ”

"Wake up!"

Richard anxiously pounded the transparent barrier, screaming loudly, but could not wake up the mysterious boy lying on the ice. Richard felt like he was hitting a huge rock of ice with every impact, and the cold was unusually cold, freezing the entire right half of his body to stiffness and paralysis, and he lost consciousness.

"Wake up!"

Richard shouted again, and at the same time his body jerked up, and sat up directly, only then he found that he was lying on a white hospital bed, and the wrist of his right hand was pierced into the infusion bag connected to the infusion bag, and the liquid was intermittently "ticking, ticking" from the infusion bag into the catheter, and then flowing down the catheter and into Richard's body.

Panting heavily, Richard turned his head to the right to look at the white strap on his wrist, and under the strap was the infusion needle, where Richard's entire right hand was cold at the moment, probably because the liquid was delivered too quickly.

At this time, the door of the ward was suddenly opened, and two gray-haired old men walked in, one of whom Richard knew, Professor Luo Dahai, whom he rescued from the base.

"Little one, you're finally awake." Luo Dahai looked at Richard with a smile, "Well, yes, you can sit up by yourself, it seems that your self-recovery ability is quite strong." ”

"This is Yin Yan, the Level 9 executive officer of S.H.I.E.L.D., and also my colleague," Luo Dahai patted the old man next to him on the shoulder and introduced the old man to Richard.

"You were in a coma after being bitten by the Ice Temple, and the sea almost thought you wouldn't wake up." Yin Yan also smiled at Richard in a friendly manner.

"Xie Lu Xie," Richard also knew that he was still alive, obviously related to the old man, and his eyes were a little moist, but the man didn't flick his tears when he had tears, he just "swallowed" the tears again, and expressed his emotions with two "Xie Lu Xie" that were short but replaced all the cumbersome language.

"But that little snake is really the Ice Palace?" Richard recalled the scene before he fell unconscious, and he clearly saw a small long snake, although it was covered in ice and spitting strange blue letters, except for the size of the ice palace, Richard was still a little incredulous.

"How did the Ice Temple become like this?"

"Well, this is a bit complicated, but if you want to understand it more simply......" Luo Dahai's chaotic eyes suddenly flashed with excitement, "The Ice Hall has undergone hundreds of years of mutation...... It's time to become a human! ”

"What?!" Richard looked at the two old men in astonishment.

"Human?!"

"That's right, Avatar," Luo Dahai said with an excited expression, "Before, the Viper Organization always thought that the Ice Temple stopped eating because it was about to reach the end of its life, but I never expected that it had evolved to a breakthrough point!" ”

"Breaking point?" Although Richard could not understand the difficulties that this kind of evolution had to go through, he knew that Dao Jue was not simple! Otherwise, it would not have taken hundreds of years for the Ice Temple to reach this breakthrough point of "transforming into a human". And judging from Luo Dahai's excited look, this kind of discovery will promote the development of genetic modification in the Federation, and even subvert countless existing theoretical foundations!

"What about the Ice Palace?" Richard asked curiously.

"You little guy, didn't you hold a grudge because you were bitten by the Ice Palace, did you?" Luo Dahai quipped, "Now that the Ice Temple is the highest level of protection of the Federation's SSS, you don't want to take revenge, but you have to thank it." ”

"Thanks for it?"

"Executive Officer Yin Yan, please give this little guy a glass of water." Luo Dahai said to the old man next to him, as if he had some revenge, "Who told some people to hang my old man in that base that has not seen the light of day for 12 years, I must discuss this matter with Lan Ran!" ”

"Luo Dahai! I can't say that, but I searched for you for 12 years to find it. You can't use your sister to blackmail me again," Yin Yan hurriedly explained, and then sighed and said, "Alas, she has been thinking about you all these years." ”

"Alas, don't talk about it, I'll go back to see her tomorrow when I go back to Nebula." Luo Dahai thought of his sister who married his good friend in her twenties, and thought of her worries in the past 12 years since she disappeared, and she felt a little guilty in her heart.

"Let's talk about something happy, little one, you hold the glass of water and try to get into a meditative state." Luo Dahai reminded Richard.

Richard took the water cup handed over by Yin Yan, nodded and whispered thank you, then buried his head and tried to enter an empty meditation, gradually, he felt that the force in his body seemed to begin to gather along his arm to the fingertips of the fingers holding the water glass, the fingertips were slightly cold, and Richard felt that his force seemed to be more "condensed" than before.

"Now open your eyes and see."

Richard opened his eyes and looked down at his hand, only to see that the water in the glass had been frozen into a whole block of ice, and it was exuding a white cold air, and the cold air floated into the air and was evaporated.

"...... this?" Richard looked at the ice cubes in the quilt in dismay.

"Force mutations."

Luo Dahai replied with a smile.
