I just want to be stable, I was hung up and became a Valkyrie

Chapter 129 Frozen
The armored car Shen Qian was sitting in was already in the front row. At this moment, through the front window of the car, the extremely fragmented scenery came into Shen Qian's sight.

The armored convoy still stayed in the wind and sand, but about ten meters ahead, there was a cold snow and ice.

The snowflakes are falling, the vegetation is withered, it is a world completely frozen.

The wind and sand and the blizzard are so abruptly connected, but they do not interfere with each other. It is obviously a different world when you step on it, but it is close in front of you.

"Captain Sun, these ice and snow..."

Shen Qian vaguely sensed the problem, but still asked.

"Not before."

Sun Fang, the commander of the Changyou Battalion, frowned. He didn't want to pay attention to Shen Qian at first, but maybe he also knew Shen Qian's special status in Jingcheng, so he said something more.

"There is also a glacier in the area from Mingcheng to Jingcheng, but it is not in this location, and it is only a small piece."

Sun Fang turned to look at Song Ben, "How is it?"

Song Ben held the detection instrument in his hand, and shook his head upon hearing the words, "It's too wide, I can't see the border... The ninth team just patrolled this area yesterday, and everything was normal at that time, a bit weird."

"Send three teams and five teams to explore along the left and right borders, with a boundary of ten kilometers, and return if they cannot find the border."

Seeing Sun Fang and Song Ben getting busy, Shen Qian, who couldn't help much, retreated silently.

"Shen Qian, what happened?"

"Why did the convoy stop?"

Ouyang Fei and others surrounded him.

Shen Qian briefly explained the situation, and everyone reacted differently. They each squeezed to the window to have a look, and a lively discussion began.

"I have long heard that the weather in the restricted area is changeable, and today I really saw it!"

"No matter how many changes there are, it's impossible to be so outrageous. Frozen thousands of miles overnight?"

"How do you know it's thousands of miles away? What if it's just the small piece in front..."

"If you have more common sense in physics, you won't say that. Look at the thickness of the ice and snow outside. How could it be formed by the cooling of a small area?"

Everyone was talking, but most of them were excited and curious.

Only Shen Qian was a little silent.

He still remembered the inexplicable restlessness of the system just now.

It's a pity that after a series of inquiries from the hang-up box, the only answer I got was "the system collects data...".

Shen Qian thought about it for a while. This should mean that the system is still not sure what the situation is.

Glancing at the bracelet, there was no signal at all.

The weather in the restricted area is chaotic, and only short-distance communication can be achieved, which is equivalent to cutting off the channel for transmitting information to the outside world.

The military has more high-end equipment, but Shen Qian estimated that it would be impossible to contact Jingcheng directly.

Shen Qian, who had been paying attention to Sun Fang's movement all the time, heard the voice of the pathfinding team reporting from the walkie-talkie, and hurriedly moved closer and pricked up his ears.

"The three teams reported that they have probed ten kilometers to the north, and there is no ice and snow boundary."

"Team [-] reports that it has probed southward for ten kilometers, and no ice and snow boundary has been seen!"

The voices of the two teams reporting back and forth sounded.

Shen Qian frowned, which basically meant that the way for the armored vehicle to return to Jingcheng was blocked by ice and snow, and there was no way around it.

"Second Brother Song, can't you just walk through the snow?" Shen Qian asked Song Ben.

"Generally speaking, we don't easily step into unknown terrain. Although the multi-purpose armored vehicle can handle most situations, it will also cause problems when encountering extreme weather."

Song Ben explained, "And there may be unknown dangers hidden in it."

Shen Qian nodded knowingly.

At this time, after Sun Fang thought for a while, he ordered Song Ben, "Put on the protective clothing and go to check the temperature ahead. If possible, we'd better go straight through."

Song Ben nodded, put on protective measures, opened the car door and jumped into the wind and sand.

Shen Qian leaned in front of the car window to look, but soon Song Ben turned back. After taking off the protective clothing at the car door, Shen Qian saw his extremely serious face.

"There is something wrong with this piece of ice and snow. The temperature at the edge has exceeded minus one hundred degrees. The core area... I can't imagine it!"

Sun Fang's face changed, and he picked up the walkie-talkie without hesitation.

"Attention all vehicles, turn around immediately, change formation B, and return to the direction of Mingcheng!"

This time without Shen Qian asking questions, Song Ben took the initiative to explain.

"Minus [-] degrees is a very, very rare low temperature. Let me tell you, the freezing point of gasoline in military transport armored vehicles is minus [-] degrees..."

When Shen Qian heard it, he immediately understood the reason for the U-turn.

At such a terrible low temperature, the armored vehicles couldn't get through this strange ice and snow that suddenly appeared. Once the gasoline froze, the convoy would be trapped in it.

At this time, everyone was not too far away from Ming City, and it was indeed the most sensible choice to turn back and wait for the situation to be ascertained before making any plans.

The armored vehicles began to turn their heads one after another. At this time, the vehicle where Shen Qian and the others were located became the rear row, and they could only wait slowly.

Ouyang Fei and the others had already talked about the origin of the universe from the origin of ice and snow, and the topic became more and more outrageous, and Shen Qian wanted to laugh when he heard it.

Just inadvertently turning his head to take a look, Shen's face froze.

"Second brother Song, is it my illusion? Why do I feel that the ice and snow are much closer?"

Song Ben also turned his head to look at the words, and then his pupils shrank, "Commander!"

Sun Fang and everyone in the car gathered in front of the window.

I saw that the ice and snow that was originally ten meters away was covering the wind and sand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, the nearest armored vehicle was less than three meters away.

And the advancing speed of the ice and snow is still accelerating.

"Why hasn't the car in front left yet?"

"Damn, it's minus one hundred, even if you have vitality, you may not be able to handle it, right?"

Chen Peng and the others were a little flustered.

"Commander Sun?" Seeing that Sun Fang was just staring at the wind and snow that was spreading, Gu Zifang couldn't help calling out anxiously.

"Don't disturb the commander, he is calculating the wind speed!" Song Ben scolded in a low voice.

Gu Zifang shut up immediately.

A moment later, a ruthless look appeared on Sun Fang's resolute face. He grabbed the walkie-talkie and said loudly: "All vehicles, stop all actions, all personnel should wear protective clothing, and get out of the vehicle in ten seconds!"

"Yes!" Answered voices came from the walkie-talkie, and many commotions could be vaguely heard.

Obviously, those voices came from the teachers and students in Jingcheng.

"Why did you abandon the car?"

"Even if you don't have time to leave, you won't freeze to death if you stay in the car?"

The sergeants silently took out the protective clothing, ready to help Shen Qian and the others put it on, but obviously not everyone was so calm when they heard that they were going to get off the car.

Two boys resisted and shouted in panic.

Not everyone has the courage to be directly exposed to the chaotic restricted area, especially for a group of students who have not experienced much danger.

Shen Qian's car was pretty good, and the noise of other armored cars even came through the wind and sand.

"Teachers, please help, allow coercion, hurry up, everyone must get out of the car after 15 seconds!"

Sun Fang didn't mean to explain, but just grabbed the walkie-talkie again and shouted.

Perhaps seeing that the two boys in the car were still unwilling to cooperate, Gu Zifang rushed up and kicked each of them, swearing.

"Are you two idiots? Stay in the car. Once the door is sealed by ice and snow, this armored car will be your ready-made coffin!"

The two immediately became honest.

At this moment, Shen Qian was already the first to put on the protective clothing and stood beside the car door. After all, he is now a serious student master. The first second Sun gave up the order, he had already understood the reason.

"Everyone get out of the car!"

After everyone was dressed, Sun Fang gave the order directly.

The car door opened, the wind and sand swept past, and the next moment, a biting chill penetrated through the body.

Even the thick protective clothing couldn't stop the extreme cold, Shen Qian, who was the first to jump out of the car, shrank unconsciously, with surprise in his eyes.

Only by experiencing it personally can we know what the concept of Minus One Baidu is.

His physique is not weak among the teachers and students in Jingcheng, and he feels a little bit unbearable, let alone others.

And the chill was just the beginning. Just when almost everyone got out of the car, a more bitter cold wind rushed in, and the wind and sand surrounding them disappeared instantly, turning into fluttering snowflakes.

Shen Qian glanced back, a layer of ice crystals formed on the body of the armored vehicle in the blink of an eye, and the wheels were also covered in thick snow in an instant.

The ice and snow all over the sky are like a paintbrush in the hands of a god, passing by the armored convoy extending hundreds of meters in an instant, turning the sky and the earth into a vast expanse of white.

Heavy snow, hail, glaciers... all the weather under the extreme cold replaced everything in an instant.

The teachers and students who got off the bus were in a mess, but fortunately, the sergeants of the Changyou Camp stabilized the order.

Shen Qian didn't have time to pay attention to other people, he kept pulling his left foot and right foot, so as not to be welded to death in the snow if he didn't pay attention.

"Huh!"

The sergeants of the Changyou Battalion formed a circle under Sun Fang's military order, trying to surround the weaker candidates as much as possible.

The principals of the various schools have already arrived in a hurry.

"Commander Sun, why don't you let the students stay in the car first?"

Xu He, the principal of No. [-] Middle School, couldn't help but asked, "I know you're worried about the door being sealed, but as long as the door is open, there is at least a shelter in the car!"

"You can't stay here for long!"

Sun Fang looked serious.

"In the past, there have been extremely cold weather in the restricted area, but I have never seen such an aggressive snowstorm. The protective clothing is charged with spiritual energy. Once the energy is exhausted, 90.00% of the people here cannot withstand the low temperature. , we must return to Ming City before the protective clothing runs out of energy!"

"Isn't it okay to wait here for help?" the principal of No. [-] Middle School interjected.

No one answered him, and the headmaster of No. [-] Middle School showed some embarrassment on his face, apparently realizing that he had asked a stupid question after speaking.

Communication is inconvenient, and they are still waiting for rescue. Theoretically, the communication tower will definitely find their abnormality, and then send rescue according to the location, but... what if?
"We've only been away from Ming City for less than an hour. According to the speed of the armored vehicle, we've only traveled less than [-] kilometers per hour. The protective suit can run for six hours at maximum power. If you walk faster, it's enough to go back to Ming City!"

Sun Fang saved him some face and told everyone about his plan.

"Commander Sun, you have rich experience, what do you say?"

Huang Tao nodded resolutely, "Since you have made such a decision, it's not too late, let's set off immediately!"

"Well, you don't have to worry too much about the students. They just feel a little panicked when they haven't experienced it before. We will do a good job of appeasing them!"

Li Ziyan, the principal of No. [-] Middle School, also nodded and said, "You should pay more attention to keeping the sergeants on alert. I always feel that... this snowstorm is not right."

Li Ziyan's words seemed to awaken something, except for the newly appointed principal of the No. [-] Middle School who was still a little dazed, everyone else's expression turned serious.

"Principal Li, you mean..." Xu He looked serious.

"Ahem, Shen Qian, what are you doing here?"

Huang Tao coughed and interrupted Xu He in time, and pulled out Shen Qian, whose cat was about to turn into a snowman behind him.

Shen Qian shook the snowflakes on his body, and blinked innocently, "I just happened to pass by, you guys continue!"

"Go aside!" Huang Tao rolled his eyes, "You might as well help take care of the other students if you have this spare time, you still have some prestige now."

After dismissing Shen Qian who was eavesdropping, Huang Tao signaled Li Ziyan to continue.

"Except for Headmaster He from No. [-] Middle School, everyone here has some...experience, so they should know what I just wanted to say."

Li Ziyan took a deep breath, and continued, "Of course, the possibility of the worst kind is extremely small, after all, it has not happened for more than ten years, but even other situations will be very troublesome, because we have so many companies with us. Warriors are not children."

"In short, everyone be more vigilant!"

Everyone nodded, and there was no further delay. Under Sun Fang's command, a total of two thousand people formed a team of hundreds of people. The sergeants walked around the periphery, and under Sun Fang's leadership, they walked in the direction of Mingcheng go.

The wind and snow were raging, and the extreme cold was piercing to the bones. The team marched in the boundless wind and snow with difficulty.

Except for Ouyang Fei and others who sneaked in, most of Shen Qian's side were students from the No. [-] Middle School. After experiencing the initial panic, most of them have calmed down now.

It's cold, but they are all students who are determined to take the martial arts exam, and their basic physical fitness is still passable.

"Shen Qian, what did you hear just now!" Gu Zifang noticed Shen Qian who was sneaking past just now, and asked next to him.

The wind and snow would block the sound, so Gu Zifang was almost roaring.

"I'm a warrior, so I don't need to shout so loudly!"

Startled, Shen Qian patted his helmet and yelled back.

He was communicating with the golden ball with his consciousness just now, and he was really scared when he was caught off guard.

"The principals said it's nothing serious, just go to Mingcheng!"

Seeing that many people around had their ears pricked up, Shen Qian roared.

Sure enough, everyone relaxed a little, and a few girls tried to take pictures with their wristbands, probably because they had never seen such a scene before.

But Shen Qian's mood was actually not that easy.

Not only because the eavesdropped words just now made Shen Qian feel that something was wrong, but because the golden ball also lost contact.

Although the golden ball is essentially a communication device, the communication device that can communicate with the consciousness space should be of a very high level.

Originally, for the sake of prudence, Shen Qian planned to ask the Palace of Hundred Kings for help.

I heard that the prince is traveling fast, if the prince is willing to make a move, it should not be long before he arrives.

Unfortunately, this channel is also broken.

Fortunately, it is indeed not far from Mingcheng here, so we can only hope that nothing will happen.

Although reality... will always teach you to be human.

In the ice and snow, it seems that the concept of time has also been lost. The sky is always dim, and none of the three suns can be seen.

After walking for a long time, I don't know if it was Shen Qian's illusion. I feel that the surrounding scenery has not changed much, and the edge of the wind and snow that swept past seems to have spread to invisible places.

"My bracelet is out of battery, how long have I been walking!"

Ouyang Fei leaned close to Shen Qian with difficulty, raised his arm to sweep the ice and snow off Shen Qian's shoulders, and roared at the same time.

"It's almost three hours!" Shen Qian also roared.

"Strange, why haven't I seen Kunning Mountain yet!" Ouyang Fei roared in confusion.

"I've been calculating just now. We walk 1 steps in one minute, with a step distance of 110cm, which is about four kilometers in one hour. Kunning Lake is 60 kilometers away from Ming City. Something is wrong!" Gu Zifang roared.

"What are you talking about!" Chen Peng and others looked confused.

"In short, we should be able to see Kunning Mountain now!" Gu Zifang rolled his eyes, and didn't bother to explain.

At this time, the team suddenly stopped.

Shen Qian saw that Sun Fang had summoned another group of principals, and quickly touched them again.

After a while, Shen Qian turned back with a dignified expression.

"Zifang is right, we... lost our way!"

Everyone's expression changed.

"It's obvious that you haven't walked far from Ming City, how could you get lost!"

"Don't their warriors have locators!"

Faced with everyone's questions, Shen Qian didn't have an answer, but it has to be said that Murphy's Law has broken out again, and the situation is developing in an unpredictable direction.

"Commander, there is a situation ahead!" Vaguely, Shen Qian heard the shout of the soldier in charge of scouting the way.

So he followed Huang Tao and the others back and groped forward again.

Huang Tao didn't bother to care about Shen Qian anymore and let him follow.

In fact, there is no need to follow, because Shen Qian has already seen the "situation" that the scout said without going far.

In a piece of white snow, many variegated colors suddenly appeared.

Getting closer, Shen Qian's pupils shrank.

Those variegated... are all corpses!
A dead body with no end in sight!
The faces of the principals also changed, and when they turned around to stop it, it was too late, and many students had already approached.

Although most of the horrified exclamations were covered by the wind and snow, many students could still feel their panic from their staggering steps.

"Judging from their characteristics, they are all scavengers!"

Hearing the call of the scouts, Shen Qian also walked a few steps to find a body half buried in the snow. Turning over his face, he could vaguely see hideous purple lines on the frozen skin. .

Sure enough, scavengers.

Shen Qian stood up and exhaled, there are at least a thousand corpses here.

Is it a scavenger stronghold?
But if it was near Ming City, how could such a stronghold exist?
Shen Qian was puzzled, but what reassured him was that at least the system hadn't responded yet, indicating that there was no threat beyond his control nearby.

In fact, after careful calculation, everyone's combat power is not weak.

Sun Fang is the pinnacle of high martial arts practitioners, and the nine principals present are also high martial arts practitioners, and there are nearly a hundred middle martial artists such as Song Ben and Zhao Hanhai.

The most important thing is that the Changyou Battalion is the elite of the Southwest Army, and a thousand-man force can defeat the mountains and seas.

Unless there are existences above mountains and seas... Ah bah!
Shen Qian hurriedly stopped his thoughts, lest Murphy's Law continue to take effect.

"Commander, there is a valley one kilometer ahead. From its appearance, it looks like the Valley of Buya on the map!" A scout quickly approached over the corpse, and said loudly.

"Can you see which way the opening is facing?" Sun Fang visibly cheered up.

"The wind and snow are too heavy, I can't see clearly, further investigation is needed!"

"Bu Ya Valley is located between Ming City and Jing City. If we know the direction of the opening, we can relocate it."

Seeing the doubts of the principals, Song Ben explained.

Everyone has become more energetic. It is an extremely scary thing to lose their way in the restricted area. This is the right time for Bu Yagu to appear.

"Quickly investigate, let's go to the Valley of Buya first."

Sun Fang ordered immediately.

The team bypassed the snow piled up with corpses and continued to move forward. Soon, a slope appeared in front of them.

Sun Fang's face was not very good, because the scouts did not come back until they approached the valley.

Just when he was hesitating whether to stop moving forward, he suddenly felt light on his body.

Those who walked in front felt it, and immediately showed joy.

Because the howling wind and snow suddenly stopped.

It's like stepping into a certain limit. Although the feet are still covered with ice and snow, the temperature is rising rapidly.

Everyone relaxed temporarily, and hurriedly called the people behind to speed up their pace.

When the physical strength reaches the limit, there is a place where you can rest suddenly, and everyone will be happy.

Shen Qian also felt it, and was about to interact with Gu Zifang, who was crying with joy, when he was suddenly taken aback.

Danger!

A special signal emanated from the depths of his heart, making him tremble all over.

The system, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly became agitated at this moment, as if it was constantly warning him in this way.

"There is someone here!"

Song Ben, who was walking in the front, was already standing at the top of the slope, and he pointed forward and shouted.

The rest hurried to follow, and Shen Qian, who didn't know where the danger came from for the time being, also ran over quickly.

A fault appeared in front of the slope, and below it was a collapsed valley with a forest rising from the valley.

Beside the woods is an extremely flat depression, densely packed with vein-like ice crystals on the ground, those ice crystals continue to gather, and finally arched into an ice platform like a tree stump.

Nine people wearing black cloaks who couldn't see their faces stood quietly around the ice platform with their hands down, motionless.

Shen Qian's heart was beating violently, but he had a strong feeling that the danger did not come from the nine cloaked men.

He raised his head, his eyes lost focus for a moment, and he kept searching under the induction of the system.

Finally, Shen Qian's gaze locked on a certain void directly above the ice platform.

He saw a strange spot of light.

The light spot is only the size of a palm, and it is hundreds of meters away. If it weren't for his poor eyesight and systematic guidance, Shen Qian would not have noticed the existence of this small light spot at all.

When Shen Qian was staring at the light spot, the light spot was breaking free from the unknown nothingness bit by bit at a nearly static speed...

　Ahhh, this episode is really the slowest one I have written since I started the book, because it is equivalent to the prologue of a part of the world view, so be careful, everyone forgive me!
