Chapter 256. Frozen Stone Gate
"There...is there a pirate ship?!"

After seeing this scene, Ding Ri let out a tone of amazement, "The pirates also had an idea about that legendary treasure."

"But they ultimately failed."

This warship has been docked in this cave for at least a hundred years. If the pirates get the treasure, they will definitely come back and drive the ship away.

"Look there, there is a door there!"

Ding Ri suddenly pointed to the location not far from the pirate ship and shouted.

Bai Ye looked in the direction of his finger, and found that it was already the edge of the cave, and the outline of a stone gate could be vaguely seen, but the outside of the stone gate was blocked by a thick layer of ice.

How to enter this frozen stone door?It should be the first test for players in this game.

"Go to the pirate ship first and see if you can find something like dry wood that can light a fire."

Step by step, it would be better to get rid of a few negative states on the body first, after all, no one knows whether there will be danger waiting for the two of them behind Shimen.

……

The closer they got to the pirate ship, the higher the terrain. After walking a few steps forward, the two of them came to the vicinity of the battleship.

This is a flat ground outside the frozen stone gate, and there are some material boxes piled up on both sides of the road leading to the stone gate.

"Look, ready-made combustibles."

Ding Ri walked towards those rotten boxes and kicked them.

Click!

The box was trampled into a pile of splintered planks, revealing a ragged pirate skeleton behind the box.

Ding Ri consciously went up to touch the corpse.

"It's too fake. I gave flint and steel when I picked up wood!"

He took out a pair of flints from the skeleton's arms, and showed them to Bai Ye.

"The system has already arranged our game steps clearly."

The system of the game "Pale Dawn" has a high degree of intelligence, and it is easy to calculate this relatively simple player behavior.

"There are several pirate skeletons around here. No matter which skeleton you choose to touch the corpse, you will definitely get a pair of flint in the end."

"Really?" Ding Ri touched a nearby skeleton in disbelief, shook his head and said, "No, there is nothing."

"I mean before you got the flint."

"Hi."

……

There is still a bonfire in the pirate camp in front of the frozen stone gate. After putting the collected broken wood boards on the bonfire, find some fire starters such as cloth strips, and soon the bonfire will burn.

The two Bai Ye who surrounded them also felt the warmth. The down jacket on their bodies was quickly dried, and the negative status in the status bar was also lifted.

"It's almost done, now it's time to get rid of the ice on the stone gate."

The two walked up to the frozen stone door, Ding Ri reached out and knocked on the ice layer, only to feel that the ice layer was very thick and covered the entire stone door, it was impossible to dig through the ice layer with bare hands.

"I think a fire can be set to melt the ice."

He squeezed his chin and came up with an idea that he felt was reliable.

"It's possible, but it's too slow, and the wood that can be collected around is not enough to burn the ice."

Bai Ye had obviously considered the possibility of this plan a long time ago.

"We can dismantle the ship. This ship is made of wood."

"It's unrealistic, and...too troublesome."

Bai Ye shook his head, pointed at the mast of the pirate ship, and signaled Ding Ri to look there.

"I just observed that the mainmast of this ship is just facing this direction. The height of the mast is about 20 meters. Instead of setting fire to melt the ice, it is better to burn or cut off the mast on the ship. Just align the pouring direction here."

With the weight of the collapsed mast, even if it can't break the ice layer on the stone door, at least it can cut a big gap in the ice layer.

Then the two of them will work along the gap, and it will be easy to remove the ice.

"Good way! Why didn't I think of it."

Ding Ri's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he patted his teammates on the shoulder excitedly: "Yes, Bai Ye, you have a very bright head."

……

So, the two turned back to the edge of the platform near the side of the ship.

The boarding board had already been broken, and there was a distance of nearly ten meters between the ship's side and the shore, so it was impossible to jump and board the ship by running.

"Use the hook."

The most indispensable thing on a pirate ship is the point to fix the claws. Bai Ye chose a section of the ship's mast and successfully threw the claws onto it.

After the claws were successfully fixed, he swayed onto the deck of the ship, and Ding Ri followed him onto the ship.

"First look for the material that destroys the mast."

The pirate ship was a large three-masted sailing ship, with a distance of at least 50 meters from the bow to the stern. There were several cannons on the ship's deck, but most of them were frozen and unusable.

Nothing was found on the deck, so the two came to the cabin below.

There were boxes in the cabin, and Ding Ri went to look through them, and found that the boxes were either filled with shells, or some cold weapons such as knives and axes.

"Sure enough, the system has prepared tools for us very predictably."

Ding Ri took a two-handed ax and waved it twice, "If you want to burn the mast, you can dismantle the shells, and if you want to cut the mast, these cold weapons will come in handy."

Bai Ye also picked out a few relatively intact ones from the weapon box. He carried a two-handed ax on his shoulders, turned his head to Ding Ri and said, "Go, it's easier to cut off the mast."

Cutting the mast is also more particular. The bottom of the mast is a bit thick and needs to be cut in from two directions at the same time. It is like sharpening a pencil to thin the bottom of the mast first, so that it cannot bear the weight of the shaft.

Because a layer of frost condenses on the surface of the mast, the ice layer strengthens the mast in disguise, and the ice layer needs to be melted off before felling.

Wood can be found everywhere on the pirate ship, and the two quickly lit two torches, which quickly melted the ice outside the mast.

Then start felling, because the mast has been standing here for more than a hundred years, the mast is already fragile, and the progress of felling is quite fast.

"That's all right. You stay here to help the mast align. I'll go to the shore and use the claws to pull the mast."

After the chopping was almost complete, Bai Ye gave Ding Ri an order, and then used the hook claws to swing back to the shore again.

Instead of retracting the claw, he grabbed the rope of the claw and began to pull the rope towards the frozen stone door.

ka ka ka-

The tall mast made a piercing cracking sound, and the shaft began to fall slowly towards the frozen stone door.

Ding Ri under the mast also helped to push the mast together, and by the way helped to fine-tune the collapse direction of the mast.

ka ka ka-

The cracking sound became more and more intense, and the speed at which the mast fell accelerated.

Finally, with a loud bang, the mast hit the frozen stone door impartially.

Bang!

The ice layer was smoothly smashed into a huge gap by the heavy mast, countless ice cubes splashed and flew out, and nearly two-thirds of the area of ​​the stone gate had been exposed.
