The process of walking on the ice abyss is actually quite difficult, even for the sublimators, although it is not difficult to say, but it is enough to call it hard.

From the hills down to the gentle ice fields, the wind and snow are still raging, but they are much more gentle than the high places. Compared with the surrounding ice cliffs and countless ravines and deep valleys, the ice field is composed of pure ice crust, the terrain is low and flat, because of the low temperature of tens of degrees below zero, ordinary ice is as hard as steel.

But the strange thing is that on such a flat and solid ice field, there are one or two from time to time, and even many huge ice leakage ice caves, which go straight to the deep and dark underground, which is not felt at first glance, but the more you gaze at its depths, the more dizzying it feels.

No one can figure out how these holes are formed and why they are so smooth and flat.

If he fell into it, it would be nice to say that Ian had Fairy Wings, but Isengard and Master Gossay were doomed—Ian couldn't carry a man out of such a sleek and solid ice cave.

But in the process of crossing this dangerous ice field, Isengard reports to Ian an unexpected piece of information that he has not discovered.

"You're saying that under these glaciers, there are huge steel structures that are releasing heat...... Those caves on the ice sheet were melted by the heat released by the steel structures? ”

It's not that Ian doesn't believe in Ethan.

The other party has gone all the way, and the growth along the way is also visible to the naked eye, this young master of the Ellen family is now strong enough, and he has enough will to push his strength to fight, and become Ian's comrade-in-arms when he fights, rather than being a burden to be protected.

However, when he carefully used the perception range of the extended foresight horizon and added the silver chip to perceive, he was surprised to find that the glacier was at least 1,200 meters deep below...... There really is a huge structure that Isengard said!

"I'm not lying! It's just that the steel structure is very weird, all of them are as square as a big coffin, releasing boiling heat, and it looks quite scary......"

At first, Isengard was still a little proud, but then his tone became lower and lower, and he seemed a little uneasy: "This place is really a bit weird, Ian, Mr. Gosai doesn't have an instinctive essentia body now, and it's not a way to rely on potions to support it...... Let's get out of here, shall we? ”

Isengard instinctively senses heat by his own bloodline, and perceives slight temperature changes under the glacier, although Ian can also sense it, but only the number on the silver chip does not fluctuate much, which is within the normal margin of error.

The scope of the foresight horizon was originally small, and he needed to use a restrained method to actively perceive it in order to barely sense the huge steel structure at the bottom of the glacier.

"It's not a strange thing, it's just another proof of my guess."

Thinking in his heart, Ian stared at the ice beneath his feet—it seemed that the ruins of this place, the Ice Abyss, which used to be a huge natural underground cavity, had been transformed into a huge cooling reservoir by the pre-era civilization.

But suddenly one day, the cooling water that was supposed to be transported from the fusion power station no longer came, and only the ordinary flowing water that had been poured into the sea water again and again condensed into ice, forming an ice abyss...... Until now.

But even so, there is still a part of the heat dissipation structure is still running, and the steel conducts heat, causing hot gas to gush out of the bottom of the ice layer and pass it into the ice abyss, forming ice, snow and wind, and causing the ice abyss to dissolve and solidify, creating deep ice caves and ice caves.

After thinking about this, Ian couldn't help but nod his head - Isengard's advice was right, whether it was for the sake of Master Gosai or his own safety, leaving this place was the best policy, and if everything went according to his thoughts, then the strange cliffs and craggy ice walls in the ice abyss may be due to the fact that the ice fields here would collapse and break again and again, melting and condensing intermittently.

There may be a land of eternal ice, but what about finding it? They didn't intend to settle here.

And just when Ian praised Isengard a few words, and told the other party that if there was an abnormal situation like now, he must tell him as soon as possible.

Suddenly, both of them heard a violent explosion in the depths of the ice field in the distance.

“…… The sound of alchemical artillery? ”

Both of them were a little stunned, looked at each other, and then made up their minds in unison, and without saying a word, they quickly marched in the direction from which the explosion had come.

There was also a difference in the sound of the alchemy artillery, and they could all hear that there were two kinds of cannon sounds in this series.

One is the latest standard alchemy artillery of the Central Empire...... And another.

It's the Canaan Moorish cannon used by the pirates!

However, before Ian and Ethan, who hurried over, could figure out why the artillery of the Empire and Canaan Moore were firing in tandem, it seemed that they were joining forces against the enemy.

Ian was the first to see that on the snow hill not far away, there were two black dots that were fleeing all the way.

"You take care of Master Gosai, I'll go check on the situation."

Ian handed the Master Goser on his back to Isengard, who readily agreed, "Be careful." ”

And when Ian accelerated, urged the fairy wings to volley over a long distance, and landed directly in front of the two black dots, the two fleeing people had no intention of attacking at all, just rolled and looked in horror at the 'monster' that suddenly descended in front of them.

However, when they saw Ian's face and made sure that it was not a hallucination, they immediately stepped forward and shouted with joy.

"Guide!" "Guide, aren't you dead?"

Except for the merchants in Port Harrison and the Southridge Cities, the only people who could call Ian a guide were the members of the exploration team.

"Bluesails? And you...... Isn't it Ethan's bodyguard? ”

Ian Dingqing looked at it, and was surprised to realize that the other party was really an acquaintance - one of them was the thin shellfish team leader on the exploration ship, and the first explorer to discover the shimmering crystal shell, while the other was simply one of the two sublimator guards of Isengard.

Both of them had icy blood stains on their bodies, and there were also many wounds on their bodies, but fortunately, they were not infected by the brain-eating worm, and this kind of small injury was trivial to the sublimator.

"What's going on, isn't there a fight over there?"

Ian didn't put down his weapon, the heavy abyss iron sword in his hand was still clenched, he frowned and asked the two, and although the two didn't know that Ian took Esengard out of the exploration ship and drove the armor to kill the great shaman, they knew that the young man in front of him was not weak.

Especially the latter, Isengard's guards knew very well that Ian was a 'genius' who could kill all the natives in a whole firearms unit with an ordinary fine iron sword.

Therefore, in order to avoid the stupidity of the temporary companion of this operation, he was the first to speak and give a general account of the current situation.
