Chapter 669: Icelandic Horror (197)

The two brigades were in danger half an hour ago. After discovering that looking up at the ice cave would cause ice to fall down, the passengers became extra cautious, but it was not that they stopped looking up. Instead, under the assignment of the brigade captain, two people looked up every minute.

There is always a reason why ice cubes fall in ice caves. If these ice cubes that can smash people's heads can be collected, they may be of great use. If An Xuefeng were to make a plan, he would stay at the entrance of the ice cave for a while to roughly figure out whether the falling ice belonged to the ice cave, where it came from, how to collect it, etc., and then explore deeper.

However, the tooth hunter seemed to want to make up for the wasted time because of Betty's birth. He led the team to walk really fast. He had to do his best to keep up with him. The passengers didn't pay much attention to the surroundings. Chance.

"What are you looking at? There's something good to see here."

Miao Fangfei put forward her opinion tactfully, but the tooth hunter spurned her back: "If you want to stay here and move around freely, feel free to do so. If you want to go deep into the ice cave with me, just follow me."

Exploring the Blue Ice Cave is a bit like free time. As long as you are in the ice cave, it doesn’t hurt to leave the group temporarily. However, after the fang hunter said this, no one chose to leave and no one fell behind. They all followed him closely.

"Something's wrong."

Miranda whispered, touching her arm. Even though she was wearing a waterproof and windproof jacket, she still felt unusually cold. This coldness was somewhat similar to the severe cold caused by the frost giant's resurgence. Once a person stopped moving, it would be like being frozen into an ice sculpture.

"This ice cave is very deep."

An Xuefeng said seriously, ordinary ice caves are actually different from what people think. Most of them are just caves full of blue ice, and the end can be seen at a glance. But the ice cave led by the Tooth Hunter was different. At their speed, they had walked almost a hundred meters, but there was still no end to the ice cave.

Most of the tourists are now grateful. Fortunately, for the sake of safety before entering the ice cave, the tourists have tied safety ropes to connect them together like a glacier hike. Without this safety rope, I would be afraid of getting lost in the twists and turns of the dark ice cave. The tooth hunter walking at the front was walking like flying, and almost only a blurry figure could be seen. Under the dim light, the figure seemed to be twisted into a ghost. People couldn't help but wonder whether it was still the tooth hunter who was leading the team. People are ghosts.

In this case, the presence of a tour guide is like a talisman. The devil merchant did not raise any objections to the route, which showed that the tooth hunter was right to lead the way. The so-called eternal blue ice was deeper in the ice cave, which also reassured the passengers. However, it is true that the deeper you go, the more nervous everyone becomes. The environment in this ice cave is really too bad.

The light is misty, like countless wet mist droplets floating in an ice cave. The damp and cold air almost penetrates into people's bones, making them sore and unbearable. The ice underfoot seems to be too frozen, even though It is very difficult to walk on the road with crampons, and you will often step on the thin ice, and your whole feet and calves will get stuck in the ice holes.

Pure ice was okay. Although it was sharp enough to cut the legs of trousers, it couldn't hurt anyone. The problem is that most of the ice caves that have been trampled on are filled with extremely cold ice water. Except for Betty, who is being carried by Roger, everyone's shoes are soaked through, and their toes are so cold that they feel like they have been pricked by hundreds of steel needles. It hurt like hell to get up. Everyone stumbled, gritted their teeth, and continued walking deeper, one step deeper and the other shallow. No one dared to stop, as they were afraid of falling behind even if they stopped for a moment.

The skylight at the entrance has long since disappeared. It is extremely dark in the ice cave. Even if all the lights on the safety helmet are turned on, the light is as dim as if it is being completely swallowed by the darkness. Most tourists have very good eyesight and can see things even in the dark, but in this ice cave everyone seems to have degenerated into ordinary people. Not to mention the beautiful blue ice in the ice cave, the light from the headlights is almost only It allows passengers to see the blurred figure of the person in front of them.

In this case, everyone is busy rushing on, and no one has time to look back. When they discovered that Director B was not at the end of the team and couldn't find him, after they had walked for about a quarter of an hour, a very low tunnel suddenly appeared in front of the ice cave. This tunnel is less than half a person's height and cannot walk normally. They must bend down and crawl through the long tomb-like tunnel before entering deeper into the ice cave.

This is very dangerous. The tunnel is narrow and low. Once the passengers in distress are unable to stand up and fight and can only crawl one by one, they seem to be easily killed. Even the tooth hunters who were in a hurry stopped in front of the tunnel, leaving some time for the passengers to discuss. Unfortunately, this was the only way to go deeper into the ice cave, and there was no shortcut.

Should you risk climbing through the tunnel and go deeper into the ice cave to look for blue ice, or stay here and look for blue ice in the already explored range.

"The quality of the blue ice behind the tunnel is better, but there is no blue ice here."

The devil merchant spread his arms and did not interfere with the tourists' free choice. Logically speaking, when it comes to such a dangerous scenic spot, it is safest to go in a group. Most of the time, rashly teaming up is looking for death. However, there were still differences.

"The danger of this section of the ice cave is probably not as high as the normal difficulty level of this attraction."

Shao Yuan whispered: "We haven't heard the laughter yet."

On the itinerary, the reminder for exploring the ice cave is "When exploring the blue ice cave, the blue ice is laughing." The tourists think this is a clue. Perhaps the characteristic of the eternal blue ice is that it can laugh. Maybe the longer it is frozen, the louder it laughs. So far, they haven't heard any laughter. Even if there is blue ice hidden in the tunnel, the "laughter" is probably very weak and they will ignore it. It is probably not very old, and even if it is dug out, it will not get a high completion rate of the attraction.

"Sorry, I'm afraid I have to stay here."

In fact, all the tourists can think of this now, but some people still smile helplessly. Betty gasped in pain, her head was covered with cold sweat. Even though Roger kept wiping it for fear that she would catch a cold, the cold sweat still kept coming out.

"I... I'm having labor pains again. I'm afraid I'll have to give birth again soon."

Betty said hoarsely, forcing a smile: "If I go there, I'll be a burden to the team."

"Betty is right."

Tong Hege turned into a human form to feel Betty's pulse, and shook his head: "Even if she goes to climb the tunnel, she will probably be exhausted. She is not suitable for strenuous exercise."

After Betty gave birth to the pupa, Director C temporarily asked Tong Hege to follow them and keep an eye on Betty's condition. With what he said, Betty was really reaching her limit and was not suitable for continuing the adventure. If Betty stayed, Roger would naturally stay as well. Miranda opened her mouth after thinking for a moment. Although she was ambitious about the ice cave and blue ice behind the tunnel, she planned to stay.

"I'll stay."

But before she spoke, An Xuefeng calmly said: "I have experience. I can help if I stay. Wait for Director C."

When Betty gave birth to the pupa for the first time, the guards were right next to her. It's good to say that she has experience. Staying will help her deal with various emergencies. But the passengers intuitively thought that the focus was still the latter - Director C did not follow the team, and it was essential for a passenger to stay to meet him.

In fact, An Xuefeng had noticed as early as when Director C deliberately fell behind, and there was a spiritual connection between them. However, knowing that Director C had his own secret to do, An Xuefeng continued to lead the team after confirming that he was fine, and did not stay to wait for him - that was tactless and annoying. Until a few minutes ago, the emotions and mental fluctuations from Director C suddenly became very strange and regular. An Xuefeng immediately felt something was wrong and contacted Tong Hege.

Even so, An Xuefeng had a vague premonition of something bad, so he decided to stay.

"I'll stay too."

After hesitating for a while, Miranda made up her mind. After Di Feiyu's death, the second group of people corresponding to the difficulties and disasters in the old dream team were only her, Betty and Director C in cat form. There was only one rune left in this group, and the corresponding person could be roughly guessed from their respective meanings.

Looking at Betty's current situation, if she is affected by the power of the Rune, she is likely to correspond to the Rune character 'Persia', which corresponds to the English letter p. Its original meaning is 'fruit', representing secret pregnancy and childbirth, hidden babies and the like. The other two Rune characters are Nossus (corresponding to the English letter n) and Soweru (corresponding to the English letter s).

The original meaning of the latter is the sun, representing God's victory over the devil, and is a symbol of victory - Miranda feels that this character is more suitable for Director C, and she has nothing to do with the sun.

According to this calculation, the Rune character she corresponds to is most likely n, which is not a good omen. It represents oppression, hardship and misfortune, meaning 'any form of gambling is not a good time', and you must stay calm and wait for a better time.

... So in general, Miranda, who was worried, thought it would be better for her to wait here and not take the risk of going to the tunnel for the time being. At least wait for Director C to come back.

"And if Betty wants to give birth again, there should always be a woman to help. It's still inconvenient for you men."

Before the Tooth Hunter got impatient again, everyone made a quick decision after a brief discussion. Wei Xun, Shao Yuan, Miranda, Roger, Betty and Lisa stayed outside the tunnel to look for blue ice and waited for Director Bing to return to the team. After Betty gave birth for the second time, they would see whether to enter the tunnel, while the others would enter the tunnel and form a mixed team, with Miao Fangfei as the team leader and Dan Lin as the deputy team leader.

After the finalization, the passengers quickly started to act, and they got into the tunnel one after another with nimble hands and feet. An Xuefeng had been contacting Bing Yi, and after seeing that there was still no reply, he decided to go back to find him on the grounds of searching for blue ice. Acting alone in the deep, dark and cold ice cave was almost equivalent to seeking death, so Shao Yuan went to look for it with Wei Xun. Thinking that if something happened here, Lisa's memory would always be able to protect Miranda and the others.

However, when the two men left the tunnel entrance and turned back to follow the marks and hurriedly walked towards the ice cave, they soon discovered something was wrong - they had only walked back ten meters from the tunnel entrance when their heads began to ache, and the further they walked back, the more intense the pain became, and it soon turned into a severe pain like an electric shock!
