Chapter 133: The Wise Jiman (2) - Ice and Snow World
The four of them crossed the border between the Sacred Ape Country and the Missu Country, and finally reached the sky above the Pamich Plateau just after dark.
At this time, the cold snap had been faintly blowing, and the four people in thin clothes gradually felt the cold wind stinging all over their bodies, Oia came from the tropics, and was extremely unaccustomed to the cold climate here, sneezing one after another.
The stars in the sky also seemed to have become particularly dim, and the distant mountain peaks had begun to be covered with a layer of foggy frost, and the world seemed to be about to enter a world of ice and snow.
"Luther, what about your arrangement, you won't just let us freeze to death here. Turks asked.
In a deep valley on the Parmici Plateau, the cold wind was not blowing so fiercely, but the temperature was still very low, and Oia was shivering with cold, and her lips were white. The others were no better, and even Tex, who was the thickest dressed, couldn't help but shiver. The moon rose tremblingly over the horizon, and its light did not seem to penetrate the cold air in the hidden air, only swaying in the distant sky.
"Luther, don't wait, do you have any good way to say it as soon as possible, or we'll freeze to death before we reach our destination!" said Jack, rubbing his arms together, and the breath in his mouth was already able to condense in the air, spitting out like mist.
The cold wind finally blew into the deep valley, and the surrounding plants were wilting as if they had been beaten by frost, and the turquoise trees and grass had turned gray by this time, and the distant stars began to dim and fade from the sky. A heavy snowfall looks imminent.
"I'm waiting for the best time to enter the country of Jiman, and now, the weather is going to be bad, and it's a good opportunity for us to get in. Luthor said, looking at the gray sky.
"Wait!?we're all dying, you're going to wait!, my God!" Turks Teeth were already fighting, and they couldn't even speak very well.
"Just listen to me! Wait!" Luthor said.
The three young men all looked at Luthor silently, not saying much. To be honest, they didn't have much strength to say anything now, and they all started to crouch on the ground uncontrollably.
It seemed like a long time later, and when Jack opened his eyes, the snowflakes in the sky were already gently drifting, falling on his forehead and shoulders. The four people in thin spring clothes were all trembling. But Luthor just didn't say when he would leave.
The snowflakes gradually grew larger, falling from the sky like cotton balls, and fell heavily in front of the four people, and the ground had begun to accumulate snow, and the surroundings became white.
"Alright, let's go!" Luthor pulled out a glowing glass ball the size of a fist from his bosom and said, "This is the ball of light and heat, holding him in your arms will raise your body temperature so that we can fly over there." Cher and Dodds, I don't know if you can hold on, Jack, you sit on Dodds, just let Cher be driven by Tex. ”
Luthor handed out the ball of light and heat to the trio, and Oia recognized it at a glance: "Isn't this my father's crystal ball?
The Mulak people have the talent to create something very wonderful in the eyes of others, like this crystal ball, which is small, but can keep shining and shining.
"I borrowed it from your father, hey, I didn't borrow it. Once this thing is activated, it can only maintain the heat for about half an hour, and once the heat passes, it will turn into waste crystal, so I will give it to you at this time. Hurry up and get ready, we're going!"
"Then why don't we go there sooner, we have to wait for the snow to fall, doesn't that make it more difficult for ourselves?" complained Jack as he snatched the ball of light and heat.
As soon as the light and heat ball arrived in his arms, Jack's body seemed to have woken up from winter, and instantly became warm, and even the whole body was still a little hot, and there were fine beads of sweat on his body.
"Would you believe me if I told you that only in bad weather would the guards of the Giman retreat into the city and not bombard you with artillery?" said Luther, grimacing.
"Letter ......," Jack replied awkwardly.
Luthor gave Jack a blank look, then said, "Alright, it will be very snowy later, we have to seize this opportunity to pass through their towers under the cover of snow and descend directly to the entrance gate, so that it will be safe." ”
The four of them then flew into the sky again while Cher and Doz were still stiff.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and everyone's bodies were covered with thick snow, although they didn't feel cold, but Tex was very worried that Cher would not be able to withstand such a biting cold wind, so he kept rubbing her back, trying to lean his body against Cher and give her warmth.
After climbing over a white hill, a tall tower finally appeared in front of them, the outer defense tower of the Gimans.
No one would venture into the territory of the Jimans on foot from the Pamich Plateau on foot, where the Jimans have set foot in a net of more than a hundred towers of the same size. If it weren't for the snow, and it was snowing heavily, Jack and the others would probably have returned from this trip in vain, because each of those towers would have at least five people, fully armed. Not only that, but the artillery on the tower will not hesitate to bombard the invaders who break in from all directions. Although Jack they did not come from aggression.
When I got closer, I realized that in the white snow, the castle carved by ice cubes was standing majestically, and the transparent walls shone like crystal. This is the entrance to Gilman City.
As soon as Cher and Dodds landed, Turks eagerly led them to a house. The house was built of solid ice, and the internal temperature was about the same as a person's body temperature, and as soon as Doz and Cher entered, they lay quietly on their stomachs, unwilling to move.
"It's freezing them, but it's good to be there soon. Turks said with pity as she looked at Cher.
"Hurry up and take out the light and heat balls, shoot them twice, and we'll have to use them again when we go back." Luthor said. The rest of the people did so, and tapped the light and heat man twice, as if turning off the switch, the original yellow and white light disappeared, and the surface became cold.
"It's so cold!" As soon as the light and heat ball was taken out, Jack couldn't help but shiver, his ankles began to stiffen, and the heat under his nose began to turn into frost and condense together.
"Let's go, don't wait. Luthor urged.
Without looking at their surroundings, Jack and the others followed Luthor into the entrance to the castle.
This ice castle was originally built on the mountain, because there is a huge active volcano hidden in the interior of the mountain, which makes the temperature inside extremely high, so the Jiman people built a castle on the periphery of the mountain according to the terrain, and all of them live underground.
