Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 235 Polar Demon
After the joyful enthusiasm passed, Xia Lan remembered to open the barrier on the clothes, and slightly modified it to create a lower surface that could travel like a track, and put them on...

He also increased the area of ​​the lower surface, and then he lifted them onto the soft snow surface smoothly, looked at the empty silver land and considered the direction of travel.

Breeze, light snow, and the higher the visibility is at 2000 meters, the snow is increasing at a faster rate.

Fortunately, Xia Lan easily determined the direction and the time zone of Central Continent by relying on the sun azimuth, the system time on the personal terminal, the overall slope of the ground, and the previous calculation of the vertical landing point.

It is now seven o'clock in the evening Victoria time, and their location is estimated to be more biased towards the inner area of ​​the crater than previously estimated. The low crater area on the edge of the crater is about 110 kilometers away from here.

"Let's go." He greeted, gently activated the spell, and sailed on the boundless snow.

Although she considered whether to make a physical vehicle, but thinking that it would consume more energy at once, Xia Lan gave up.

His current energy reserve is about 37%, and he still needs to use it carefully before stepping out of the snow field.

……

But after walking slowly for five or six kilometers, Xia Lan closed the lower surface of the barrier without warning, created a structure that was conducive to sinking in the snow, and buried all three of them in the snow.

"To prevent the need for mobile battles later, I will put snow solidification spells on your feet, and you can support them for ten minutes with all your strength." Xia Lan said, removing two less important pieces from her clothes. The cloth was rubbed out to the pure origin stone, and two pairs of chain shoe covers were made, which were wrapped around the feet of the two.

After hearing the good news, the bad news has already been written before everyone's eyes - "a" huge shadow is crawling in the snow and ice in front of them, and the black mist has spread to a position that they can easily see with their eyes .

"According to today's speed, about four days." Ghost Shark replied: "As long as you don't get dragged by some demons with special abilities."

After a while, he restrained an irregular black substance like crushed stone with thunder, and walked back to the two of them. At the same time, he continued to control the impact, blowing away the black mist that was about to gather.

They were startled by the two who were suddenly squeezed beside Xia Lan, but then they couldn't help but hold their breath when a voice rang in their ears.

"The bad news is that it has already spotted us." Xia Lan said bitterly, "And it is gradually waking up now, and it will be able to act in less than ten seconds."

……

The two of Skadi looked at the direction of the center of the crater behind them, but they didn't find any trace of the tentacles in the black room, so they silently speculated in their hearts.

He thought for a while and said, "I'm going to go underground here to get some mineral materials first, you guys have to look at it first."

……

Xia Lan fired an electromagnetic cannon with the largest caliber at hand in that direction, watching it collide head-on with a column of black mist fired from deep in the snowfield in mid-air, creating black mist rolling in the sky.

After a few seconds of silence, Ghost Shark and Skadi said in a tacit understanding: "Then let's hear the good news first?"

"What happened?" Skadi asked cautiously in Xia Lan's heart.

Her gaze was fixed on the front of their path, and Skadi immediately noticed that direction.

After it raised its neck similar to that of a feathered beast and its head similar to that of a human, a silver light tore through the atmosphere, evaporated the snow curtain, and shot through it under the shrouding of electric light.

"That's right." He nodded and greeted: "It's late now, let's rest first, I haven't had a good rest before."

"I think we should investigate the law of that thing, otherwise we don't know how it fell. What do you think?" He suggested.

By the way, he also refined a defective railgun acceleration track with a lower durability limit, saving this huge amount of energy as much as possible.

Atmospheric temperature: -17 degrees Celsius.

This time, I used some metal materials collected from the bottom of the cave just now, but I only considered the practicality, not the safety - anyway, they were all intended to be abandoned cars.

She squirmed and came to Skadi's side, looked at the peaceful Xia Lan with her, and whispered, "You can go to sleep."

Seeing it staggering and falling backwards, Xia Lan glanced across the broken snow curtain, but suddenly turned around and put his arms around the waists of the two people behind, dragging them away to fly away.

They soon felt a piercing sense of crisis.

While he was talking, a big hole melted in the snow around the three of them, and a large amount of refined metal flew out of it, half of the material turned into several high-strength solid shells, and half of the material turned into a simple electromagnetic acceleration auxiliary track .

With the snow as the quilt and the earth as the bed, they embrace each other and sleep in the freezing cold night.

……

"It's the intuition of danger... an indescribable danger is like a thorn in the back... but it was reduced by [-]% after we hid in the snow." He said with a frown, looking upwards already covered by thick snow The enchantment of the heart is extremely worrying.

Driving this simple closed translucent sled, Xia Lan looked at the sky in the distance and moved slowly at a speed of about five or six meters per second.

It took him a while to remelt the insulating gel sleeping bag into a fully-wrapped suit that is suitable for wearing and does not affect his movement, and then set off again after putting it on.

"It's possible." Xia Lan nodded slightly, recalling the power of the demons she saw when she met the remnants of the integration movement and killed the inner guard of Ursas. Now that she thinks about it, the power of the giant beasts does not come from the same source. .

"It's pure black." Xia Lan touched her chin and said, looking at this "absolute" black body that couldn't distinguish any reflections.

Distance from the crater to the crater: 87-90 kilometers.

As far as he is concerned, five hours of sleep is enough to replenish mental consumption, and he has already established a connection with the "soul star shards" reserve in the storage block, not only will he not suffer from strain, but he can even improve.

The ice layer squeezed by thousands of years of ice and snow gradually disintegrated before his eyes and pushed to the sides, gradually revealing the extremely solid melted and re-frozen ice layer below.

But different from the last time, it didn't fall down, but shattered the broken body into a denser black mist, which flew towards Xia Lan and the others in a strange shape.

"Woo..." Skadi moaned weakly, feeling the emptiness and coldness of his body, crawled back onto the cushion made by Xia Lan, and closed his eyes against Xia Lan.

Under the joint observation of the three, they found another demon——it was still surrounded by black mist, and all the white snow avoided it, so that its position was actually a pit. Probably been here for quite a while.

If it was such an obvious thing, logically speaking, the hunter's intuition of danger should have some hints, but right now there is no feedback.

Maybe there is, but since it can be hidden from them, it must be something beyond the mundane.

In the second half of the night, in Xia Lan's thermal insulation sleeping bag made of water, air, and trace elements, the ghost shark quietly opened his eyes, looked at the beauty who was curled up in a corner of the snow cave and was in a daze, and climbed up cautiously .

After watching it for a while, a strange feeling rose in Skadi's heart—although she didn't know why she felt it, it was obvious that she made a change with her "adaptation" power.

After peeping underground for a while, the pure black smoke gradually dissipated in the air...but it was not so much dissipated as it was retracted into the lair where its body was located like an elongated tentacles.

The amount of snowfall at this time was already very large, and the traces they left when they marched could be covered in just a dozen seconds, and the visibility had also been reduced to no more than tens of meters, and the positioning could only be done by the sun.

"Probably." The two people around looked at it, but even from the hunter's wider eyesight than ordinary people, it was difficult to detect the light reflected from it.

He thought, looking at the black mist and body fragments that were gathering towards a certain "central point", fired five or six electromagnetic guns with a smaller equivalent, tearing off most of the surrounding torso with incomparable precision, and at the same time turning into a figure Electricity penetrated into the shattered black mist.

After diving for more than 100 meters, he came to the bottom of the lake and confirmed his previous thoughts on the surrounding magmatic rocks.

"Tell me, how long will it take for us to escape their pursuit?" Skadi slowly fell down, leaning on her shoulder and asked.

Weather: light snow, light wind.

……

This also means that he can easily find rock formations rich in iron and nickel.

The huge airflow raised snowflakes, shredded the atmosphere, and compressed a white evaporation trail in the falling snow.

"A good news or a bad news, which one should I hear first?" Xia Lan said sadly.

Three hours later, Xia Lan woke up, and Skadi beside him also woke up following his movements.

Xia Lan rubbed her chin, and looked at the ten-meter-tall demon who suddenly raised its "head".

"Yeah, be careful." Skadi nodded.

Although there was still energy left, he couldn't continue to lead them to make such a big fuss, because the demon's "tentacles" seemed to keep increasing, and it was impossible to know where the upper limit was.

"What's wrong?" Skadi, who woke up suddenly, panicked, while Ghost Shark subconsciously raised his head and looked around.

"The good news is that there is a metal-rich rock formation ten meters directly below us. I can directly manipulate it, smelt suitable metals from it, and combine it with the substance I transformed to make a temporary weapon... ...can fight well."

Feeling the snowflakes hitting his face crazily, Skadi swallowed a mouthful of snow when he wanted to speak, while the Ghost Shark clung to Xia Lan's body very predictably.

According to the analysis of material elements, the composition of the ice layer here is similar to that of a crater. It should be that the huge shock wave generated by the falling meteorite destroyed the earth's crust, causing the overflowing magma to melt the ice and snow, creating this short-lived lake... and then It is cooling and solidifying, turning into a glacier again.

After spending a little time, Xia Lan made a simple sled. It only needs to control the rotation of the turbine and drive the chain to climb the snow to propel it. Although manual efforts are required all the time, the movement is extremely small.

The ice and snow here consume more stamina than the cracks in space, and because of the pollution of the natural environment and demons, almost no living things survive, and it is impossible to replenish organic matter. If this continues, I will really starve to death.

He said: "Let's go, I will use the concealment spell next, I will try to slow down the speed as much as possible, and reduce the movement... You should look at the direction behind, although the snow is heavy, it is still useful with your eyesight." of."

The moment he sank to the ground, he used the weak wind control spell to cover them with ice and snow, and wrapped the entire barrier with the concealment spell, hoping not to be discovered.

As the two of them sat down at the positions he had preset, Xia Lan manipulated the ice again and lifted them onto the snow.

"It seems that you have to kill this thing to have that?" Xia Lan straightened out a slightly curved acceleration track, looking at the demon who was struggling to repair his body.

After feeling the steering force of a dozen sudden deflections, the icy snow hit him... No, it should be that the three of them were firmly planted in the snow.

……

After making some mental preparations, Xia Lan carefully manipulated the ice and snow, and led them down...

Three hours later, when the two people behind them leaned their heads together and fell asleep, Xia Lan stopped moving forward.

Visibility: 900 meters.

……

Ghost Shark nodded slightly, and gave a few opinions: "Since the exploration of the limit is too dangerous, try to trigger the law, or simply try to destroy it, or try to use the power of the demon to hide its influence on us. perception?"

The two recovered from the dizziness, tried to raise their heads to look around, and soon followed Xia Lan's gaze to see something that made people feel suffocated - a dozen huge black objects lying between the sky and the earth , is gradually dissipating.

Wherever it passed, the snowfields were assimilated by the black mist, and the silver-white falling snow also became pitch black.

"Probably because the demons are special, after all, they are different from any life in this world." Ghost Shark speculated.

It was greeted by a second railgun that tore its torso in two.

There is no smell of demons here.

"Boom!"

The ghost shark gave him a blank look, and reminded: "How far is the border of Liusas here, and there should not be many monsters that can run there. According to the strength of the monster just now, it should be quite easy to kill."

"How do you think Ursus resisted the demon?" Xia Lan said in a low voice.

If you run for a while, maybe it will increase to twenty, thirty or even more, and then it will really be impossible to escape.

"It makes sense." Xia Lan nodded slightly, and calibrated the direction of progress on the time comparison table again.

This thing still seems to obey physics. Although the black mist can provide assistance, the main power still comes from mechanical movement.

There is a reason why Ursus has been able to resist the daemon for so long with steel, cannon, and flesh.

"How could this be discovered? I don't have any premonition at all." Xia Lan rubbed her chin and muttered, but the two people around her didn't quite understand.

Central land time 9:07.

A huge explosion sounded, and a black thick fog dissipated from the part hit by the electromagnetic gun - a text message came from the radar spell, and the head of this humanoid demon with six arms and two legs was blown into pieces. Fragments whose largest size is less than one cubic decimeter.

But as a pure kinetic energy attack without enchantment, the electromagnetic gun was exhausted after only penetrating a distance of a hundred meters, and Xia Lan also took the opportunity to carry the two people around him and fled away.

"Does it have to be beaten?" Ghost Shark scolded, stood up and looked at that thing.

As the danger intuition gradually faded, Xia Lan breathed a sigh of relief, carefully rubbed a polarizer with ice and snow, and looked towards the outside world - there was a trail of black fog that was gradually dissipating at a height of [-] meters in the sky, coming from the crater. The center shoots to the border.

When the black mist increased to eight, Xia Lan, who was already experienced, escaped from its range, and once again hid in the snow with the concealment spell.

"Try again, you should be able to figure out the routine once more." Xia Lan said.

The two people around him also looked expectant - if it was what they thought, then maybe they would be able to avoid the encirclement of demons.

But even Ursus, who has struggled against demons for thousands of years...can't say how intelligent it is.
