Chapter 161: Pushing the Limits
The place of the noon break is in a valley.
The temperature of the land of ice and snow is more than minus 20 degrees Celsius on the periphery, and the central area is even more amazing, and the gas that comes out can even turn into ice mist.
Often, many times, the most beautiful sight in the world is found in this kind of cold place.
At the bottom of this valley, there are patches of delicate wildflowers everywhere, turning the whole valley into a paradise. A large number of trees grow here, although it is a little cold, there is no snow, and the ground is overgrown with weeds. Unlike the cold wind howling outside the valley, the temperature here is only a few degrees, which can be regarded as warm as spring.
As a woman, Xia Shaojun naturally likes this valley very much, like a little elf on the grass.
Lan Keying leaned against a tree, looking at the spring-like scene here, and also showed an expression of amazement.
Cheng Qianbo had already taken off his backpack and was making a simple marching stove with a sapper shovel, where lunch would be solved.
Being able to drink a sip of hot soup and eat a hot meal in the cold wilderness seems to be something that everyone is happy to see. So for cooking in this beautiful place, it makes people feel like they are going out for a picnic.
There are a lot of dead branches and broken trees, a lot of dead grass, and a lot of things that can be used to make a fire.
Don't look at Tao Ruhai is fat, but his movements and skills are extremely sensitive, with a shotgun, he plunged into the valley, and soon came back with a few hares, and then familiarly removed the internal organs and furs, and then cleaned them with the mountain spring water in the valley, pierced them with a few iron branches, and made a fire to roast the hares.
The rest of the people were all stuck on the rocks in the grass, staring at the sky idly.
…… After lunch, we continued to go deeper into the land of ice and snow.
When you reach this kind of realm, you will need to return if you change to another team, because there is still half a day left, just in time to return to the outpost town.
But Zhang Jianyang is different, although the night in the land of ice and snow will be very bad, but he still likes it very much, and the mutated herbs produced at night are the most precious, and they are extremely rare in the market. The main reason for this is who would run to the hinterland of the land of ice and snow in the dark night? Naturally, this mutated plant has become very rare when it is discovered by the world.
Where the mutated snow lotus is located, Zhang Jianyang can only make an approximate estimate.
In the illusion, the mutated snow lotus did appear on the land of ice and snow, and it was not just once, Zhang Jianyang only knew a general range, but there was no way to be precise about this range.
The land of ice and snow is so large, a general range, it doesn't take a few days, and you don't want to explore it again.
Promoted to six stars, it can be said that the chips that you can take out are used up, and if you want to rely on external forces to improve, the mutated snow lotus has become a necessity.
Maybe in other people, relying on external forces to improve the star level, there is a feeling of impetuousness, like an unstable foundation. But Zhang Jianyang has experienced it once, and his experience is enough to make up for the sequelae of this rapid promotion. With Lou Orchid, Zhang Jianyang doesn't need to worry about this rapid improvement, which will cause his star power to be insufficient.
From nothing in four months, to the current six-star, it is absolutely unprecedented.
But Zhang Jianyang's ambition is not only this, he wants to rush his star to at least eight stars in one year, and reach nine stars in five years, standing on the peak.
As we go deeper, we can see no mutant beasts, and occasionally you can see some mutant beasts haunting this land of ice and snow.
In a frozen lake, Zhang Jianyang silenced everyone.
On the ice of the glacier lake, a tall mutant snow bear is walking on it, very similar to the polar bear, with a giant-like body, snow-white fur covered with snow. It walked cautiously on the ice, and when it reached the center of the frozen lake, it raised a bear paw and plunged into the ice.
The mutant snow bear belongs to the eighth order, and the power it has, not to mention these ice layers, is the frontal armor of the tank, which is not enough for it to shoot a single shot.
The sound of "poof", the hard ice, was directly pierced by the power of the snow bear.
The mutant snow bear did not stop, but raised its paws and kept slapping into the ice, and in a moment, it actually made it chisel a hole, revealing the frozen lake below.
Only then did the thick ice be chiseled, and a large fish of dozens of catties jumped up from the hole.
But without waiting for the big fish to fall back into the lake, the snow bear opened its mouth at the moment it jumped, and bit out like lightning, biting the big fish of dozens of catties in its mouth, and then raised its head, swallowed the big fish in three or two strokes, and stared at the hole again.
The land of ice and snow has been rare since the formation of the nuclear war, this large lake has not been destroyed, rich in fish, after hundreds of years of accumulation, there are not many big fish weighing one or two hundred catties.
In just a few minutes, the snow bear has a full meal.
Suddenly seeing the eighth-order mutant snow bear here, everyone's face changed drastically, leaning on the edge of the ice cube, and the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath.
This is an eighth-order mutant beast, and the highest distance is the ninth-order, and there is only one level. Look at the snow bear's height of nearly three meters, its thick body, but it is full of explosive power. If you're not familiar with it, you'll think that Snow Bear's size is a little smaller than many mutant beasts.
But those who understand know the horror of snow bears.
The well-fed snow bear, licking its tongue with satisfaction, is slowly walking on the ice, towards the peaks not far away.
Tao Ruhai was a little moved, he carried a double-barreled shotgun, gently moved it in front of Zhang Jianyang, and whispered: "Captain, do we have any hope of killing it?" "Kill the eighth-order mutant beast, just think about this one thing, it will make people crazy, and no one can refuse the benefits after success.
When the others heard Tao Ruhai ask, they all focused on Zhang Jianyang.
Xia Shaojun lowered his voice and said, "Fatty, you're crazy, this is an eighth-order snow bear." ”
Cheng Qianbo was also taken aback, he was just a four-star force, if he really faced the eighth-order snow bear, the snow bear could slap him into a pulp. Challenging the eighth-order snow bear with the power of four stars, he still wants to live a few more years. In the team, there are only two people who can't see the depth, one is Lan Keying, and the other is Zhang Jianyang, but they can't be seven-star, how can they only be six-star.
Between the sixth-star and the eighth-order, the gap is too big.
Zhang Jianyang was silent, but took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and smoked it fiercely.
The eighth-order snow bear is so attractive to him, as soon as this snow bear has the eighth-order nuclear crystal he needs, this means that in the next month, he can use the snow lotus, Lou Orchid and the eighth-order nuclear crystal to impact the seven stars, and have the qualification to enter the Star Alliance.
But this is the eighth order, and among the people present, no one knows the power of the eighth order better than Zhang Jianyang.
Like this level, which is already a qualitative change, Zhang Jianyang is not sure that he will kill the snow bear, at most there is only a thirty percent chance.
kept smoking, just for a moment, a cigarette had been smoked by Zhang Jianyang, he spit out the last puff of smoke heavily, then threw the cigarette butt to the ground heavily, wiped it out with his foot, pulled out the saber from his thigh, and roared: "You all stay here, I'll try, with your ability, there is no way to deal with it." ”
Xia Shaojun moved his mouth, but Zhang Jianyang had already jumped out of the ice and catapulted onto the frozen lake.
Lan Keying's eyes were full of color, she didn't expect Zhang Jianyang to dare to challenge the eighth-order snow bear, this is a super mutated existence, even if it is an eight-star star warrior, she doesn't dare to easily provoke this kind of mutant beast standing on the peak. Although she couldn't see Zhang Jianyang's star rating, just because he didn't have the mark of Star Alliance qualification, he should have the same star rating as herself.
The six-star challenge to the eighth-order mutant beast is absolutely shocking and unbelievable.
Even Tao Ruhai looked at Zhang Jianyang who was gone with some astonishment, just now, he was mostly joking, except for people with rusty heads, they would think of challenging the eighth-order snow bear.
However, Zhang Jianyang's adventurous move made the fat man sluggish.
The whole team just watched Zhang Jianyang run wildly on the frozen lake.
…… The oncoming wind made Zhang Jianyang's clothes hunt.
He held the saber in his back and was running wildly, waving his hands vigorously, exerting his speed to the limit, almost a faint touch of wind.
Challenging the eighth-order snow bear, Zhang Jianyang is not only for the possible eighth-order nuclear crystal, but also as a kind of self-extreme challenge. When will life and death be experienced? It's about pushing the limits, challenging goals that you can barely win, and then finding a glimmer of life in the midst of death. When you finally survive, you will find that you have experienced so much after a cycle of life and death.
In the illusion, most of Zhang Jianyang's combat skills are comprehended from this kind of life and death grinding.
Of course, Zhang Jianyang was not hot-headed, the reason why he hesitated just now was because in the illusion world, he had this kind of experience, when he was six stars, he went to challenge an eighth-order mutant beast. At that time, he died nine times in his life, and after killing the eighth-order mutant beast by luck, he himself almost died with the mutant beast, which was also his most dangerous experience in the illusion.
The current situation is just that the mutant beast has been replaced, and it is also a six-star challenge to the eighth order, so it is inevitable that Zhang Jianyang will have some indecision.
But this time, Zhang Jianyang is much more confident, because he has experienced it, he has it, and more importantly, in his backpack, he has the potion prepared by Lou Orchid, as long as he still has a breath, he can rely on this Lou Orchid Elixir to survive and heal in the shortest possible time.
With this trump card, why does Zhang Jianyang need to be afraid of the eighth-order snow bear?
