"Huhu..."
The cold wind howled past Patrick''s ears.
The snow and thorns on both sides retreated rapidly, which made him feel as if he was flying.
"Shasha Shasha... "
Skis scurry across the ice surface at high speed, making a dense sound of friction.
"Everybody, there''s a bend ahead, ready to lean right!"
In Patrick''s helmet, the voice of Lord Renault suddenly sounded.
He stares at the figure''s movement in front of him. When he sees the other person''s body leaning to the right, he immediately makes the same movement.
In a twinkling, a huge ice wall suddenly appeared more than 200 meters in front, like a giant ice beast, blocking the way of the team.
With Patrick''s speed at this time, it will only take about 2.5 seconds, and he will have an extremely violent and intimate contact with the ice wall.
At this time, the wire rope tied on the belt, with a strong force, pulls Patrick''s body, slides to the right side, skilfully bypasses the ice wall, and continues to slide forward.
Moreover, the speed did not decrease at all, still maintained at the terrible high speed of 80 meters per second.
"Hoo..."
Patrick took a long breath, and the extreme tension eased a little.
"Oh, there is another curve ahead. Please note that it seems a little steep..."
Mr. Renault''s voice sounded again.
Patrick''s heart had just let go, and it came up again.
Especially when he found that the curve ahead was not only quite steep, but also quite narrow, his heart kept beating, almost to the throat.
"Hoo..."
The cold wind suddenly became fierce, the steel wire rope pulled violently to the left, dragged Patrick to a sharp turn, and narrowly slid past the ice wall.
The moment he glides through the curve, the minimum distance between him and the ice wall is only the size of a fist.
If the turning time is 0.01 seconds slower, or the speed is one more minute faster, it is estimated that he has hit the ice wall severely.
This really scared Patrick to death. His vest was in a cold sweat.
"Wuwu..."
This is the cry of Mr. Sansha.
You can hear a shiver in your voice. It sounds pitiful.
It was obviously scared, too.
If you look down from above, you can see that behind a sled car is connected with a very long steel wire rope, dragging a long string of small black spots, and quickly rowing on the winding ice surface, just like a dexterous dragon.
This ice, to be exact, should be a frozen glacier, which is the passage for the scientific research team to pass through the snow thorn forest.
The way the team is going is suggested by Mr. Renault, that is, all the people are in a row, and Mr. Renault will drag them in front.
Worst of all, Patrick can only passively accept this extremely stimulating way, and dare not oppose it at all.
He noticed that the big fat dog seemed very reluctant, but he seemed more afraid of Lord Renault, so he had to accept it honestly.
He also believed that, except for miss adanis and a few of the extraordinary people, I''m afraid everyone in the team was trembling, but no one dared to show it.
However, it must be admitted that this way is extremely fast.
"Hi, everyone, thank you for the route provided by Mr. Patrick. It took us only 27 minutes to get through this glacier at least 150 kilometers long..."
What? 27 minutes?
Patrick was taken aback.
A great joy welled up in his heart.
This terrible journey is finally over.
And deep exhaustion.
He wanted to fall on the ice and have a good rest.
But Mr. Renault''s words made Patrick feel tired and humbly reply:
"Dear Sir, it''s nothing. The information I provide is what people in the North know Your ability is amazing. I never thought that I could cross the snow thorn forest and reach the "ice peak Rift Valley" in 27 minutes The fastest time I remember, it took a full day and a half... "
From the corner of his eyes, the northern "Gladiator" could see that you Sansha opened the lock of the wire rope three or two times, with your four legs open, lying on the smooth surface of the ice, the dog''s head close to the ice, his body in a "wood" shape, and his mouth was constantly humming.
This interesting appearance, let Patrick''s mouth, a tiny arc.
……
Timothy squatted beside Mr. magician, looking curiously at Lord Adriano, working in a metal box, operating a strange object.
Adriano''s fingers quickly passed a silver metal plate with dense patterns. The faint blue light lit up the rune and dyed the metal plate into dark blue.
"Pa! Bang
More than ten slender metal sticks come out of the small holes on the side of the instrument. Like a magic trick, Mr. magic mechanic pulls the metal sticks to 1 meter long and constantly adjusts their angles.Mr. Moji used his magic fingers to light up the other two silver metal plates in turn.
although Mr. woodlouse in the North cannot read what Mr. magic is doing, he dare not ask for questions, but this does not prevent him from enjoying it.
"Huhu..."
A fierce wind, from the front of the huge cracks, whistling into the air.
Timothy looked up and stepped back.
The width of the crack is more than 100 meters, the length of which is unknown, and the depth of the crack is even more difficult to measure.
The team is now in the Great Rift Valley, an extremely dangerous Jedi in the thorn ice sheet.
The crack in front of us is just one of the many cracks in the "ice peak Rift Valley".
"Click!"
The magician opened a corner of the metal box, took out a gorgeous black crystal panel and observed it carefully.
The crystal surface is carved with circles of fine lines, forming a concentric ring composed of dozens of circles.
Timothy saw that Mr. magician gently pressed the crystal panel a few times, it suddenly appeared a soft blue light, and suddenly dissipated, leaving only a blue light spot, flashing on the crystal surface.
"Mr. Reynolds, the ice element activity index detected by the condensed matter element index detector here is higher than that of the ice tooth swamp And the maximum index sensed by the instrument is more than 240 points, about 30 points higher than that of "Bingya swamp."
The voice of Mr. wizard came from the communication channel.
In addition, the distribution of ice elements is "discrete" rather than "uniform" or "continuous" The energy response of a few nodes is significantly higher than that of other regions
"This proves that your theory is correct The closer to the polar region, the denser the ice elements are, and the number of naturally formed high-energy nodes is also significantly increased, and the energy level is also higher... "
Timothy was stunned to hear this.
Mr. magician What are you talking about?
"Very good!"
Mr. Renault spoke on the channel.
"I believe that in a larger geographical area, elements are also distributed in a" discrete state. "The area from" Bingya swamp "to" Bingfeng Rift Valley "should be a typical" ice element accumulation zone. "
"Everyone, half an hour later, we will begin to explore the" ice peak Rift Valley "and detect the energy index of each location We need this information to analyze the energy flow in the "ice element accumulation zone" and find the node with the highest energy index. "
"If I guess correctly, the higher the energy index, the greater the probability of the birth of the" ice element stone "vein..."
It''s the stone of ice!
Timothy finally understood what these gentlemen were doing.
He couldn''t help but say:
"Mr. Adriano, you should know that northerners often pick up the stone of ice element in the thorn ice field. Many years ago, many people believed that there must be a vein nearby where the stone of ice element was found. As long as you can find it, great wealth will be at your fingertips."
"However, no matter how hard we try to find it, we can''t even find any trace of the vein in every corner within a few kilometers This shows that the vein of "ice element stone" does not exist at all
Adriano could not help shaking his head:
"man, the times have been different for a long time. Our research in Rune literature has proved that the formation, distribution and exploration methods of ice element stone all have strict theoretical basis."
"It is precisely because the distribution of ice elements is" discrete "rather than" continuous ". When the energy level is low, they will appear individually and will not aggregate into pieces It has nothing to do with the gods. "
"However, when the energy level is raised to a certain extent, the distribution of elements will change from" discrete state "to" continuous state " At this time, the stones of elements will no longer appear in scattered blocks, but form rare veins. "
"This instrument will detect the energy nodes where elements gather and guide us to find ore veins..."
Timothy shook his head and looked suspicious:
"Sir, although you are powerful and extraordinary, I must say that it is absolutely impossible Mortals can only rely on the luck given by the God of ice and snow to get the gift of the gods In addition, it is impossible to find the stone of ice element by any other means... "
Adriano scoffed at the "God''s gift theory" in the words of "Gladiator":
"the stones of ice elements are not God''s gift, so it doesn''t take luck to find them In fact, I can now find all the ice element stones in this area Let me show you... "
