Chapter Eighty-Five: The Strength of the Ancient Artifact

Qin Fei looked at the ice cube in front of him and thought for a moment.

If you want to melt such a large piece of ice with fire, you have to be prepared to consume a lot of fuel, and it is very time-consuming.

The tone is to use fire to bake, it is better to choose to use the iron draft directly, and dig a hole in the middle of this piece of ice, which is much more convenient.

Qin Fei took out a handful of metal manuscripts from his backpack and began to dig into the center of the ice cube.

'Ding! ’

After knocking for a while, the metal manuscript in Qin Fei's hand was directly shattered....

The manuscript is actually broken?

Qin Fei's eyes showed a look of thought.

The reason why this metal manuscript shattered was probably due to the fact that it had taken too long to take it out and the temperature of the pickaxe itself was too low.

Whether it's metal or tools like axes, they can become extremely fragile at low temperatures.

After the temperature of the metal drops to a certain level, it may not be as hard as an ice cube.

With the temperature inside this large ice cave, it is impossible to chisel through the ice with an iron pickaxe.

Qin Fei found that if he wanted to completely clean up the ice in front of him, there was really only one way to roast it with fire.

That little bit of wood in his backpack was definitely not enough. In order to bake this ice, you must also prepare a large amount of anglerfish oil.

The direct combustion efficiency of anglerfish oil is very low, and it is not easy to control the burning range.

Qin Fei had to reprocess the fish oil.

He took out a tin can of water from his backpack and added the frozen anglerfish oil to it.

Afterwards, Qin Fei took out another gauze bandage, tore it into a long strip, and inserted it into an iron can filled with anglerfish oil.

With that, a simplified version of the anglerfish oil candle is ready.

After Qin Fei lit the long strip of gauze with a lighter, he put the iron can in the center of the ice cube and slowly roasted it.

Qin Fei's homemade candles are very coarse, at least ten times the size of ordinary candles.

Therefore, the flame of the candle in this tin can is much larger than that of ordinary candles.

Qin Fei held the tin and roasted it for about an hour or so... Finally, in the middle of the ice, a hole about a meter was baked.

After the snowman leader saw Qin Fei roasting the ice cubes with fire, he walked to Qin Fei's side.

It approached the hole in the middle of the ice, comparing it to its own size.

The cross-sectional area of this hole baked out by Qin Fei is not large. With the size of this snowman leader, there is no way to get through.

The only ones who could climb through this hole were Qin Fei, Xie Nanai and Caesar.

The snowman leader looked at the hole, turned his head to look at Qin Fei again, and then waved his hand to Qin Fei and let him climb through the hole.

Qin Fei was a little speechless.

Could it be that there is something hidden behind this huge block of ice?

Although it was not clear whether there was any danger behind this, Qin Fei still had to go in and take a look.

After all, the purpose of his coming to this big ice cave was mainly to find a strong artifact, and naturally he couldn't miss it anywhere.

Under the constant urging of the snowman leader, Qin Fei drilled through the hole.

And Xenaine and Caesar were waiting for him in the same place.

Qin Fei and the three of them didn't need to go in together.

If there is really any danger here, it is better for Qin Fei to die alone than for all three of them.

After all, in Qin Fei's backpack, there are still two substitute dolls that can be used.

On the other side of this giant block of ice is a somewhat dim-looking passage.

Qin Fei lit a torch and slowly walked forward along the passage. He was in no hurry to take the shotgun out.

In this case, no firearm can be taken out in advance.

In such a cold temperature, once the firearm is frozen for too long after being taken out, almost 100% of the case will explode.

After walking less than a few hundred meters, a light blue light appeared right in front of him.

At the end of the passage is a large, bright room.

The interior of the entire room is very large, with a height of at least twenty meters.

In the very center of the room, a sphere that glows pale blue is placed, and on the surface of this sphere there are countless synapses.

Qin Fei was overjoyed.

Isn't this the powerful artifact you're looking for!

The light that belonged to the unique light of the artifact made Qin Fei recognize it at a glance.

Directly behind the artifact, there was also a huge snowman covered in ice, which was almost ten meters high.

Next to this giant snowman is a huge iron rod about its height.

This iron rod, with yellow at both ends and red in the middle, is exactly the same shape as the golden hoop stick in Journey to the West.

Of course, this iron rod is not a real golden hoop rod. The tall snowman who was frozen in ice was also not the legendary Monkey King.

This is just an easter egg set up by the production team in the game.

Qin Fei stepped forward and took down the powerful artifact located in the center of the room.

[The strength of the ancient artifact: the supremacy of brute force is the law of survival that all beings seek. 】

After Qin Fei took off the strong artifact, a loud noise suddenly sounded in the entire artifact room, as if some kind of mechanism had been triggered.

Qin Fei secretly said in his heart that something was wrong.

He put the artifact in his backpack as soon as he could.

Then, Qin Fei turned around and ran towards the passage where he came in.

He was going to go straight back the way he came.

But before Qin Fei could run into the passage, above the entrance of the artifact room, a huge ice pick suddenly fell, blocking the entrance to the entire room....

At this time, Qin Fei couldn't get out at all.

At the same time that the ice pick fell, the giant snowman that was frozen in ice suddenly shook violently all over his body.

After seeing this scene, Qin Fei's face was full of vigilance.

When this giant snowman was abnormal, Qin Fei hid in the corner of the room and began to observe the snowman that was frozen in ice.

At this moment, the ice that enveloped the snowman's whole body had countless cracks on it...

The ice looks like it's going to break.

As the snowman's whole body shook more and more, the ice on its body began to crumble and gradually fell off.

Eventually, when there was not a single drop of ice left on the snowman's body, it opened its eyes.

The giant snowman lowered his head and looked at Qin Fei, who was staying in the corner of the room.

Qin Fei looked at the behemoth in front of him and was shocked in his heart.

Things are starting to get out of his grip more and more.... Now, a completely different plot has appeared than in the game.

In the original game, the frozen snowman was just an easter egg.

It was used by the production team as a backdrop and placed in the artifact room for decoration.

But I didn't expect it to suddenly come back to life at this moment.

Qin Fei was a little apprehensive in his heart.

This snowman....

You won't attack me suddenly, will you?

After the snowman was freed, he moved his body a little and picked up the iron rod beside him with his hand.

As soon as the snowman grasped the iron rod, it began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the end, the iron rod became the size of the palm of your hand.... Then, the snowman stretched out his palm and handed the iron rod in his hand to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei could clearly hear that when the giant snowman made these movements, there would be bursts of mechanical roars coming from its body.

Listening to the sound of metal hitting the snowman's body, Qin Fei was stunned.

The giant snowman in front of him was most likely a huge machine made of poured steel.
