Chapter 653: Icelandic Horror (181)
"Don't worry, the deaths of Yu Xiangyang and Heydrich were planned."
Before Di Feiyu came to the RV with a tired look on his face, Wei Xun simply said this, and in a few words he passed the death of Yu Xiangyang and Heydrich. If it weren't for the spiritual connection, Wei Xun was sure that he didn't mean this, and Bingyi even suspected that Wei Xun was trying to perfunctory him.
"I didn't enter the old dream this time. Di Feiyu wants to know better."
An Xuefeng was sitting on the bed wearing a black cashmere sweater, holding a dry towel to wipe Bingyi's hair. The interior space of the RV is narrow, and the stove is at the foot of the bed. A small pot on the outdoor portable stove is steaming, and the aroma of milk and wheat is filled with the boiling water. It was pitch black outside the car window, without any trace of human existence. Heavy snow was hitting the car window. The only sounds in the car were the sound of snow, the sound of towels wiping hair and the sound of water boiling on the stove. It was unexpectedly quiet, just like human beings in the wilderness. final residence.
An Xuefeng looked at the heat, closed the lid and let it simmer for a while, then briefly talked about what happened in the day after Bingyi fainted.
After cleaning the battlefield, it only took less than two hours to hike on the glacier. After some discussion, everyone decided to take their sleeping partner with them and move on. Thor did not take away the Thunder Goat before leaving. The travelers used ice cubes from the remains of the Frost Giants as a cart. Miranda and others who were trapped in old dreams were placed on the ice and let the Thunder Goat pull them to continue hiking.
Although there are protection from the Æsir and the Frost Giants, the journey ahead is quite difficult. Ice sheets collapsed, volcanic rocks shattered, and underground magma even spewed out. Steam tens of meters high was like a snow-white steam column, and the temperature was so high that people would be burned if they came close. But the most dangerous thing is a monster related to the abyss.
"The tooth hunters call it the banshee. It will appear in the nine worlds before the end of the world and the Jin Lunga Chasm appears, mourning."
The banshee will not actively attack people, but it carries heavy abyss pollution and is extremely dangerous. For peak travelers, this danger is even more terrifying and cannot be approached. The appearance of the banshee was accompanied by extremely bad weather. The glacier hikers were blocked by the banshee, and encountered a terrible snowstorm before they could even discuss the countermeasures.
"The arrival of the blizzard plunged the ice field into winter. I shot the banshee with the winter god's yew bow, and the brigade passed through the rift before an even bigger blizzard came."
"You know how to use a bow?"
Bingyi suddenly raised his hand, grabbed Wei Xun's wrist and brought it down. Under the dim light, he could see blood stains on his slender, pale fingers. The gauze wrapped on them was soaked when he wiped Bingyi's hair, and there was blood. He rubbed Wei Xun's fingertips and said neither lightly nor harshly: "The fingers are almost broken, so reluctant? Are everyone else dead?"
Bingyi's tone seems to be born with a hint of laughter, and sometimes people can't tell whether it is joking or good-natured. But An Xuefeng noticed the corners of his mouth and the slight frown on his eyebrows, felt the truest concern in his emotions, felt comfort in his heart, and wanted to say something, but considering Wei Xun's character, he put the words to his lips After swallowing the warm words, he changed his words and said with a smile:
"If you were me, I wouldn't be able to help but take action when faced with this situation."
An Xuefeng raised his eyebrows, feeling a little unruly and excited, but also a little regretful: "That is a banshee that even Lisa and the others find troublesome. I killed her with one arrow, and she was not as strong as I thought."
"This little injury? It's okay. I don't feel any pain anyway."
"It happened that it lost a feather after it died. It was black and red. It should be an item related to the primordial abyss -"
An Xuefeng kept chattering for a long time, and suddenly found that Bingyi was silent. Deciding that he was wrong, he reached over Wei Xun's shoulder to take a look, only to find that Wei Xun was looking at him with strange eyes.
It's like looking at a fool, and a little annoyed.
Wei Xun's fingers were almost broken when he touched him, and he still carried him all the way to the RV. Bingyi was really worried and angry, and even a little angry at other people. In the end, he was confused by Wei Xun and said that the banshee is so strong and worthy of a challenge. , the items dropped by the banshee were precious and needed more, and I almost laughed in my heart. Didn't this person still respond to him in the abyss? Why are you so straight now? Is this what he wants to hear? It seems that his worries are unnecessary. After all, Wei Xun is just a puppet, and the little banshee must be just an interesting thing to Ah Feng——
An Xuefeng:......
Feeling what Bingyi was thinking, An Xuefeng's face almost turned green. Fortunately, the porridge was boiling. He used the porridge to change the subject and said angrily to Bingyi in his mind, "You can't say anything at this moment." 'I know you care about me, I'm happy, but I also have to maintain my personality' and the like, that's so damn stupid and will definitely make the tour guide even more irritated.
‘This bow of the winter god Ullal is given to you by the God of Thunder’
An Xuefeng whispered, pretending to be serious: "I used your bow and arrow."
‘What, you want to pay the rental fee and the usage fee? ’
Look at what he said, there was a hint of thorn in it, he was still angry, and he didn't even pick up the porridge. An Xuefeng didn't care, and the mood in his mind became more and more serious, even a bit preachy: "Can your bow be used by others?" ’
If others were told by him such a combination of punches, they would probably be aggrieved and angry, but Bingyi was not an ordinary person. He was vaguely aware of something, so he leaned on the bedside in his spare time and raised his eyebrows: "You are a casual person." ? ’
'of course not'
An Xuefeng said with a smile. In the live broadcast room, he had a serious face and was stirring hot porridge with a spoon to dissipate the heat. No one knew that the conversation in his mind with Bingyi was becoming more and more inappropriate.
'Of course I'm yours'
I used your bow, so of course I am yours.
His tone was serious and serious, and it would not make people feel that this was a joke. It was as if it was natural and he had already accepted it in his heart. Bingyi was suspicious by nature, and it had to be said that this tone of voice was more liked by him than the others. He finally took the bowl of porridge, which was not too hot, tasted it a little, and was satisfied to find that the temperature of the porridge was also what he liked.
Bingyi did not like food that was too hot, just like cat tongue, and An Xuefeng certainly knew this. He also did not like things that were too bland, and preferred spicy food. This bowl of porridge obviously had nothing to do with heavy spicy food, but it was extremely fragrant, thick and smooth, with a layer of clear liquid like rice oil floating on it, and the wheat aroma was mixed with a rich milk aroma, a bit like milk oatmeal porridge, but it was many times softer, thicker and smoother than it.
This is a porridge made from a grain of wheat from the goddess Sif and a small cup of divine goat milk. Although the porridge is no longer hot, Bingyi sweated all over after drinking it, as if all the toxins deposited in his body were discharged, and he felt refreshed.
"... After crossing the rift valley, Hedrich and Yin Qiaoqiao found the place where the banshee appeared. It was a crack leading deep into the ground. There was a piece of blue ice at the top of the crack. The headlight reflected on it, and Hedrich found that there were runes engraved on it."
While Bingyi was drinking the porridge, An Xuefeng took out three wild boar ribs (also the reward from the Aesir), and after a simple treatment, he put them on the stove to roast, while continuing to summarize what happened today. The piece of ice they found was actually the frozen divination stone in the old altar. The runes engraved on it corresponded to the English letter i, which originally meant ice and snow.
But its deeper meaning is stagnation, just like ice, symbolizing that all actions will be frozen, meaning separation, compromise or sacrifice*
As the rune characters on the divination stone foreshadowed, the temperature dropped sharply after crossing the rift valley. Even if the travelers drank the detoxified giant blood, they still could not resist the severe cold. Ragnarok is not only the twilight of the gods, but also the twilight of countless giants. The blizzard brought by the abyss banshees is unbearable even for the frost giants, and the flame crystals promised by the frost giant Ufa have not yet reached their hands.
Unable to bear this terrible cold, the travelers could not move forward and could only stagnate. They tried to dig a passage under the ice and snow. With the help of the peak travelers, digging the passage was not difficult. But it was precisely because of the peak travelers that they dug an underground crack when digging the passage. The strong strength of the peak travelers attracted a group of abyss banshees.
"The stronger you are, the more you will attract destruction and death."
An Xuefeng said calmly. He and his companions have experienced many such things.
There are too many abyss banshees, at least dozens of them, and An Xuefeng cannot kill them all with just one bow. The terrible pollution caused Lisa and others to become deformed. No one expected that Hedrich would take action at the critical moment. He raised a soul storm to attract most of the banshees and never returned. Even Lisa and Maria did not find him later.
Half an hour later, Miao Fangfei solemnly announced Hedrich's death. As the captain, she had a sense of the death of the team members, and Hedrich died just like that.
"Let me see the feathers that the banshee you mentioned dropped."
"It's with Yin Qiaoqiao."
Obviously, Bingyi didn't believe that Hedrich would die so easily. His strength had already been demonstrated in the battle against the Apocalypse Knight and Archangel Uriel. Just like Bai Lian Jushi, even if the corresponding rune letters appeared, he could hold on for a long time and would not die just like that.
Especially his death was very bizarre. Bingyi didn't think Hedrich was the kind of person who would sacrifice himself for others. Wei Xun said that he took the initiative to raise a soul storm and attracted most of the abyss banshees. This didn't look like something Hedrich would do.
"This is really unlike his style."
An Xuefeng made an objective evaluation, and in his mind, he secretly said to Bingyi: 'Be careful of Heydrich, the forces behind him are definitely not simple'
Based on the information Wan Xiangchun had investigated before, the West District House of the Dead and the Devourer may have a thousand connections. The Duke of Lizard in S2 and the Black Widow in S3 both buried people in the competition. It is obviously impossible that the Devourer in S1 did nothing. Considering Heydrich as the Devourer's backer, he took the initiative to die because of the Abyss Banshee after recovering his memory, which makes people have to wonder whether he has such a purpose and wants to take this opportunity to find clues to the original abyss.
But this is too obvious. Walker, who has not yet recovered his memory in the team, was shocked and sad, saying that he didn't expect Heydrich to be such a good person. Other passengers, from Yin Qiaoqiao and the others to Yin Guangyuan, can see that Heydrich's move has other intentions.
However, everyone can see that it means that there is a high probability that this is used to divert the target, and Heydrich's ultimate goal may not be here. So An Xuefeng did not immediately focus all his attention on the banshee feather.
"After digging a tunnel under the ice to avoid the extreme cold zone where the abyss banshees wreak havoc, there is enough time for glacier hiking."
An Xuefeng said: "We arrived at the ice slope to climb, and then all the travelers who were trapped in the old dream woke up."
"They brought amazing news."
An Xuefeng's tone was solemn, and his voice was like thunder in Bingyi's heart: "In the old dream, both teams fell into the Jinlunga Chasm."
"All fell into the Jinlunga Chasm?!"
Bingyi was shocked. Isn't falling into the chasm the final ending of the old dream? This is only the first day of dreaming, how can the situation be so bad?
