72° north latitude, Greenland Sea.

"Look, it's beautiful, isn't it?" The night watchman patted Ange on the shoulder, and the people in the cabin ran to the deck, all of them looking up at the sky.

Under the pitch-black canopy hung hundreds of pale cyan aurora lights, unpredictable, like a long dress that could cover the entire sky, and its edges were decorated with the lightest pale cyan silk.

The aurora phenomenon, known as the "skirt of the gods", has once again appeared in the sky over the Greenland Sea

"It looks like Isabel is drifting." The night watchman took a sip of wine.

"I'm glad to be complimented like this." Isabel smiled, "You're looking pretty well today." ”

"I said Ange, what are you looking at?" The night watchman looked at the place where Ange was looking, and it was the back of a girl, her red hair falling like a waterfall, and the clothes of a witch priestess were even more eye-catching.

"Hey," cried the night watchman, "I don't think we have such a pretty girl. ”

"yes, no." Ange was a little distracted, and he whispered, "That girl should have been in hell or heaven." ”

"Hey! Hi! Look over there! There is an island in the reflection of the sea! A student shouted.

Under the "skirt of the gods", the sea is also blue, and about a few kilometers to the side of the ship, black islands are reflected in the blue water, but there is nothing on the sea.

"It's supposed to be a mirage or a seawater projection, right?" Professor Guderian said.

"There's something up there," the night watchman squinted slightly, "that's... A flaming keel cross?! ”

"Is this welcoming us or provoking us?"

Fingal poked his head out, "Gloomy cautious." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, our destination can be determined," Ange looked at the "skirt of the gods", and then stretched out his hand to point to the reflection of the seawater, "The aurora is formed by the ionization of the atmosphere, and such a grand aurora indicates that the sky is densely covered with high-energy particle flows at this moment, which is explained by the dragon's worldview as elemental turbulence.

And this island is the palace of the King of the Sky and the Wind and the King of the Sea and Water. ”

"Norma, help me find out if there are boats within 1,500 kilometers of the neighborhood." Ange said lightly, "It's better not to make this matter public." ”

"AFTER A RADAR CARPET SEARCH, THERE WERE ICEBREAKERS YAMAL AND A RUBBER BOAT WITHIN FIFTEEN HUNDRED KILOMETERS NEARBY. Time taken 0.01s. Norma projected beside Ange, she smiled.

"YAMAAL? Which Russia built the world's largest icebreaker? Ange looked embarrassed and felt that things were getting more and more tricky. Where it is now. ”

"Sir, it's right in front of your eyes right now," Norma smiled and pointed to the left side of the deck.

It was a huge ice floe, sunk in the darkness like an inconspicuous street stone, getting closer and closer to the Arktika.

A chill came over everyone's backs, they all thought it was just a relatively large ice floe, ordinary ice floe could not be ordinary anymore, they just had to gently change course and sail away or rely on the superior structure of Arktika to crash directly into it, and then the ice floe would be forgotten by everyone.

No one cares about a piece of ice floe, but now that ordinary-looking ice floe is actually a YAMAL? No one would have believed that the once-famous MAYAL would come to such an end.

"NORMAL OPERATION OF THE MAYAL'S INSTRUMENTS WAS DETECTED, BUT NO SIGNS OF LIFE ON BOARD WERE DETECTED."

"Something is wrong," Ange frowned, "Mingfennofengal and I will go to that ship and have a look, while the others stay put." During my absence, the Vice-Chancellor served as the supreme commander.

"I can't do it...... the vice principal hurriedly waved his hand, "I can only do something inconsequential, I'm not afraid of messing things up, I'm afraid that you old thing will play with me after messing up!" ”

"yes, Headmaster, I can't do it either......" Fingal said with a bitter face. It's my great boss, Caesar Gattuso, who still needs to do this kind of thing. ”

"No," Ange said lightly, "we need Nono's profile, and that ability helps us a lot." Caesar and Nono are in a relationship, and the rules of the academy stipulate that couples cannot perform tasks together. ”

Ange glanced at Caesar, who looked indifferently into the distance, as if everything was none of his business.

No one knew what Caesar was thinking at this time, but there was no doubt that he obeyed Ange's orders, and he agreed to let his fiancée go to the YAMAAL for an expedition.

If Caesar, in his capacity as Gattuso's trustee, asked to go with them to the YAMAAL, Ange would not have been able to refuse him.

"Okay, okay, your boss has nothing to say, just hurry up and come with me, the reason why I want you by name is because you have a great role." Ange was a little impatient, and he began to strip off his gentleman's coat to reveal his old rascal nature.

"Really, really?"

Fingal looked excited, and when he was happy, he liked to say bad things, "I knew I was still useful!" Headmaster, what do you need me to do? Slaying dragons is just a little thing at my fingertips! If the academy wants me to slay the dragon now, please warm me a glass of wine, and I will kill the dragon king before it cools. ”

"Are you serious?" The headmaster covered his face, wondering why he was talking to a neurotic patient.

"Of course not," Fingal immediately cried, "a waste material like me is useless except for eating and drinking, so you better think about other people, Lord Headmaster, people like me are really useless." ”

"You have a point," the headmaster nodded thoughtfully, "and we've got zero in the ranks." Let's go. ”

Fingal reluctantly walked ahead of the line, he was second, and at the front was Angers.

"Fingal......"

"I've always believed in you, as sure that we'll be able to kill the Dragon King eventually."

Fingal suddenly raised his head, and he watched the man's back fade into the darkness, as if the man had been silent in the darkness.

"Fingal......" Ange paused, "can you go faster?" You've fallen from the front of the line to the back of the line. ”

"I want to hurry," Fingal complained, "but the box you want me to bring is too heavy." What the hell is in it, so heavy? ”

"First aid kits, as a principal, I have to minimize the casualty rate of teachers and students."

"But this medicine box is too big, isn't it?" Fingal compared the box, "This box is about as long and wide as mine." Principal: I'm feeling a little unwell and I want to take some medicine. ”

"Nope." Ange didn't look back and said, "The medicine in it is for the treatment of the seriously injured, and you can't touch it until the critical moment." Do you know how many of us are here this time? The entire academy is concentrated here. ”

"Senior brother, come and help me get it." Fingal handed over the box to Su Yuheng. He shook his sore arm, but they had just gotten into the dinghy.

"Oooh." Su Yuheng held a box larger than him in his arms, like a koala hugging a big tree. He tilted his head sideways to face Zero, so Su Yuheng smiled at her, an awkward but polite smile.

"Nono, can you see anything?" Ange asked, they were already underneath the YAMAAL.

"The ice outside the ship is expected to be 14 centimeters thick, but if you look closely, there are faint lights flickering in the cabin."

"It stands to reason that it takes more than three years for 14 centimeters of ice to condense, but the YAMAAL's energy supply can only last for two months, which means that this layer of ice was deliberately put on purpose. The purpose was to give us the impression that the ship had been abandoned for a long time, but in fact it had been less than ten days since the YAMAL was out of service. ”

"Let's go up and have a look." As he spoke, Zero had already begun to climb up the ship's stairs.

"It's no better on deck than it is outside the ship," Nono glanced around, "I'll try to see." ”

"A lot of people were standing on deck...... Almost everyone on board stood on deck. They're all ...... Look at the 'Skirt of God'! I felt Chu Zihang, he was standing alone in the crowd with a serious expression. ”

After that, I don't know what happened, Chu Zihang and another person seemed to be chasing something, and they left the YAMAAL. After Chu Zihang left, the people on the deck disappeared, yes, they disappeared. I can't estimate how they got off deck. ”

"Chu Zihang, they got on the rubber boat." Zero said, "Norma detected the Yamal and a rubber boat before. And those who disappeared may have been because they saw the 'skirt of God', and Chu Zihang was wary of this. ”

"Zero is right, the priority should be to find the dinghy." Raise your head.

On the other side of the deck, there was a sudden faint noise, as if someone was moving quickly.

There should have been no signs of life on the ship, and the best-case scenario was that someone had boarded the YAMAL before them, but who else was in the Greenland Sea?

"Let's take a look." Ange said to Su Yuheng and Fingal, "Ladies, just stay put." As he spoke, he took a special look at Eri.

"It's okay, I'll be back in a moment." Su Yuheng said softly, he and Eri Yi looked at each other, and it took a long time for Eri Yi to let go of his clothes.

"I'll count three, and then you kick the door and I'll rush in." Ange whispered.

"Three...... Two...... One ......"

Fingal and Su Yuheng ran and then raised their feet and kicked the door, just as they just raised their feet, there was a burst of laughter from inside the door, the laughter was magical, chilling but familiar.

"Wait......" Before Su Yuheng finished speaking, a sense of fear arose, the ocean is so big, not necessarily only people can get on the YAMAL.

The door slammed open, revealing a yellow sponge in a suit and a pink starfish in beach pants.

"Send Big Star, let's catch jellyfish!"

The dinghy made its way through the crevices between the ice floes, flanked by low walls, as they moved farther and farther away from the YAMAAL, which became an inconspicuous piece of ice floe again.

The dinghy circled a huge ice floe, and the sea in front of it suddenly became wider, and the reflected islands beneath the surface became clearer. Because the rock wall is a regular semicircle, it looks like a hole in the sea.

"I saw the dinghy." Su Yuheng pointed to an indistinguishable shadow in the distance.

Maybe it's because he likes to stay on the rooftop alone at night since he was a child, and many times he can see a lot of things clearly in the dark.

"Go up and have a look." Ange looked at the dinghy with a wandering look in his eyes.

"You stay here and don't move, Lu Mingfei and I will go up." When the two dinghys met, Nono suddenly stood up.

"Chairman Lu has no opinion, right?"

"Nope." Su Yuheng stood up, and he looked at Eriyi. I don't know why he cares more and more about Eri's feelings, and if Eri doesn't like it, then he won't do it.

He had an inexplicable panic, he was afraid of losing the girl in front of him.

"There used to be a lot of people on this ship, a group of special forces. Chu Zihang was also on this rubber boat. Nono leaned down and stroked the dinghy.

"Chu Zihang is standing here," Nuo Nuo stood where Chu Zihang had stood, "and jumped down." ”

"They all jumped down from here." Nono returned to the other dinghy, "Headmaster, what are we going to do next?" ”

"Send flares." Ange drew his illuminated gun and fired it from a kneeling position. The flare was like a sudden flash of light in the chaotic darkness, its tail dragging a dazzling, slender glow that broke the dull and tense silence.

A dazzling green flare shoots from the dinghy underneath the 'skirt of the gods'.

"Ho, it's pretty good." The vice-principal slapped his thigh excitedly, completely unaware that it was a flare from Ange.

"Vice Principal, that's a flare newly developed by our Equipment Department!" Someone stood up and said proudly.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your discussion of flares," Caesar covered his face, "because I think it was Headmaster Angers telling us that there was no danger and that we should get over quickly." ”

"It will take a while for them to arrive." Ange stood up and looked at the MALA. "We can't afford to waste time during this time."

"What do you mean, Headmaster?" Fingal said happily, "Can we have a small symposium?" Gossip? I'm good at that! ”

"The headmaster meant to ask a few people to dive below sea level to observe, and the island was actually below sea level." Nono gave Fingal a blank look.

"So who is better?" Fingal looked left and right, and found that the headmaster's eyes had been fixed on him.

Fingal howled, "It can't be me, right?"

The people in the dinghy almost all nodded.

"I'll go down. Lu Mingfei was with me. Zero silently took off his coat and took a set of wetsuits from the stern of the boat to change into.

In temperatures of tens of degrees below zero, she didn't seem to feel cold.

"Uh-oh." Su Yuheng nodded, took off his windbreaker and suit, and he subconsciously did what Zero said.

There was an unmistakable tone in Zero's words, like the arrogance and majesty of a princess.

The two of them jumped into the sea of ice at the same time, the dark cold of the sea of ice poured into their skin, Su Yuheng felt that there were countless fine needles stabbing his whole body fiercely, the dragon bloodline greatly improved their ability to withstand the cold, and at the same time improved their perception ability, the generation of cold was not only not weaker than ordinary people, but more intense.

There were bubbles around him in all directions, he kept sinking, the rubber boat was getting more and more blurred, he squinted slightly, as if a mysterious ancient voice sounded in his ears, and the whole world seemed to be speeding away from him.

The flowing sea water quickly condensed. In less than a minute, the surface of the sea had turned into ice floe.

The two of them seemed to enter the monster's mouth, and now the monster closed its mouth.

"Road...... Naruzawa? Su Yuheng stood up and stepped from the deck of a small boat.

He couldn't tell which one was real. It was as if he had slept on this deck, the Greenland Sea, the Dragon King and the Kassel Academy, all in a dream.

The starlight was shining overhead, and at a glance, the sea was pitch black, there were no islands, let alone continents, and on the boundless water, there was this white sailboat, two people on board, he and the big child in a black suit and lace scarf.

"Because you're going to die, I'm coming to see you." Lu Mingze sat on the side of the boat, dangling his legs, kicking one splash after another in the black sea.

"The sea you're diving in is all frozen, and in the real world you're frozen in ice." Lu Mingze said lightly.

"I thought it was a big deal," Su Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good to be locked in ice and wait for them to rescue me and Zero." We should be able to hold out until they come, right? ”

"Brother, don't you understand? You could die in an instant, if the Dragon King wanted to. Just like the Three Gorges time, a sudden tail vertebrae can kill you. ”

Lu Mingze shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "But they don't seem to plan to make a move." ”

"If you don't plan to make a move, then I won't die." Su Yuheng breathed a sigh of relief again, and he rubbed Lu Mingze's head vigorously.

"They didn't make a move because I was here." Lu Mingze raised his head and smiled at Su Yuheng, "But I'm leaving, brother." ”

"Let's go? Where are you going? Su Yuheng stopped laughing, and he stood up. He had never thought of Lu Mingze's appearance before, a child who claimed to be his younger brother and said that he was the devil broke into his life, believing in the principles of power and power, and changing his life that should have been mediocre.

But you can't ignore him, because he knows everything in your heart, he accompanies you in a daze, accompanies you to be sad, and accompanies you to be angry with the world.

Now he's leaving, and after you've fully adapted to life with him, it's like a player silently quitting the game after helping the scrap protagonist live a happy life in the game, uninstalling it, and the player may go on to play a new game, but never go back to the game that was uninstalled before.

"Heaven." Lu Mingze said lightly, as if the matter was inconsequential and as if it was none of his business.

"Brother, you have to take care of yourself, the last customer gift, temporary remake." Lu Mingze snapped his fingers, and then collapsed backwards as if all his strength had been withdrawn.

Su Yuheng hurriedly grabbed Lu Mingze to prevent him from falling backwards.

When Su Yuheng touched his skin, he found that his body was as cold as an ice cube, and the blood in his body had already been lost a lot, causing his skin to look extremely white, was it like this a long time ago? Why wasn't it found earlier? Su Yuheng thought to himself.

"Why are you like this? I should...... How to save you? Su Yuheng panicked.

He had cursed this cunning little devil countless times, wishing he could die sooner, but this time he was so afraid that those words would come true.

Although Lu Mingze was very annoying, he also helped Su Yuheng a lot, in the end, Lu Mingze did a lot of unkind things to him, but none of them harmed him, as if it was true, they were on the side, and now Lu Mingze is about to die, and they have become him again.

"If you save me, just give me the remaining 1/4 of your life, brother." Lu Mingze tried hard to squeeze out a smile.

"Take it...... You take it. Su Yuheng said calmly, "As long as you can live, exchange my life for your life." ”

"Forget it, brother." Lu Mingze raised his hand to wipe away the tears that were about to overflow from Su Yuheng's eyes, "You still have to save Chu Zihang, don't you?" ”

"What's there to cry about, brother, you're the president of the student council now, you're not ashamed to be like this."

"Brother, don't make a grudge easily, but keep a grudge, the grudge is such a heavy thing, and it is easy to solve it after the end, not only is your enmity too cheap, but even it seems cheap with you."

Su Yuheng didn't understand what this sentence meant, he wanted to speak, but found that his body was floating in the air involuntarily.

The starry sky above him dimmed and finally became blurry, and he wanted to turn his head to look at Lu Mingze only to find that his body was out of control.

The lights and the voices faded away, and at last only the never-ending darkness remained, as if someone was softly humming an unknown song, and the sound grew farther and farther away.

Su Yuheng slowly closed his eyes.

He sat up abruptly, gasping for air, his pupils still tingling with a faint gold. He looked around and saw Fingal sitting face to face with him, Nono, Zero, and the little monsters all around him.

"I'll be unconscious for a long time after I got you up," Fingal patted his chest, his face stunned. "It scared me when I woke up suddenly."

"Senior brother, I'm sorry......" Su Yuheng hurriedly bowed his head and apologized.

Isabel helped Su Yuheng up, "Chairman, are you okay?" Do you feel unwell? ”

"I'm fine, thank you Isabel." Su Yuheng said.

"Boss, what about them? Why didn't you see it? Su Yuheng asked, "The principal is also gone." ”

"Soon after you went down, the sea quickly froze into ice."

Nono pointed to him, "The strange thing is that after they rescued you and Zero, the glacier quickly reverted back to sea. The headmaster suspects that only the first generation of dragon kings have such abilities, so he personally leads the team to dive, and if the sea freezes again, his spirit time zero can allow the divers to evacuate safely. ”
