Chapter 57: The Approaching Danger

"If we can go down from here." Panis lay down on the edge of an ice slit and leaned down, with a clear view in the ice slit and no fog. Panis looked around for a while and said, "Maybe we can go around less far. Look at the trend of this ice slit, you can go directly through the large iceberg in front of you. That iceberg doesn't look too long, but it will take at least two hours to go around."

"Dear Mr. Pannis, have you considered another question?" Freya lay beside Pannis, making the same move as him, and said to the bottom of the valley below: "Indeed, it's not too deep, more than eighty meters. It's not difficult to go down. Just put down the climbing rope, but after passing through the iceberg over there, how can you get up from the opposite side? I don't think you can climb up along the ice layer that is smoother than the mirror. Maybe twenty or thirty meters, but this is more than eighty meters, and the situation on the opposite side is unknown, maybe more than eighty meters. Well, why are you looking at me like this? Don't tell me that you can really climb up."

"No, no, no, I don't mean myself." Panis looked at Freya with a weird look and asked in confusion: "Is it because Catherine forced you to diet and lose weight? Hunger has destroyed your memory center? Otherwise, it shouldn't be like this."

"My brain is not a problem. Mr. Panis, you make me so sad. Do you have to hurt a girl who loves you so much like this?" Freya held her heart in her hand and made a heartbroken expression. Suddenly, her eyes swept across Eva's expressionless face. She was stunned and said with a weird smile: "Ha, haha, maybe I'm really hungry, hahahaha, this is just a temporary mistake, just a mistake. Don't stare at me like this anymore."

Panis sighed intentionally deeply. He looked at Freya with pity, shook his head and said nothing, and turned to Eva and asked, "No problem, Eva. Let's go down together and walk along the canyon. When you get to the opposite side, you can fly up and tie the ropes for us. It won't be difficult to fly up at an altitude of 80 meters."

"Of course not." Ava nodded mutely, walked over the ice crack, and stepped in the air and said, "Will I go down and wait for you first? Or do I need to fix the lower end of the rope below?"

"No, we can climb down by ourselves." Freya was too lazy to argue with Panis: "Penis, you go down first. I will use mechanical assistance to drop, and the speed is slower."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you're slower." Panis shook his head and said, "It's not safe here. You'd better not act alone. It's better for me to break it up and it's safer."

"It's okay." Freya nodded, fixed a few small instruments on her hands and ankles, and then grabbed the rope. Freya's way of speeding down was exactly the opposite of others, and everyone's speed down was carried out facing the wall, only she was facing the wall, because she needed to use the mechanical arm behind her to contact the rock wall, control the speed of the decline, and adjust the direction of the fall.

As early as when she was preparing, Eva jumped into the ice crack. Her body was floating slowly and slowly descending as if she had no weight, but the direction of the decline was fixed and kept perpendicular to the ground. Freya followed Eva and climbed the zipline and slid downward. Whenever the speed was too fast, the metal claws behind her popped up from the inside and pierced into the ice wall. Although the ice wall was very slippery, after the metal claws penetrated deeply, they could still slow down, allowing her falling speed to slow down from fast and finally land safely.

When the princess of the Holy Capital successfully stepped onto the solid ground with her feet, she immediately picked up the crystal energy gun to warn the surroundings. However, the surroundings were empty and there was no large monster. Although the cracks in the ice were still cold, it seemed to be slightly higher than the temperature above. There was no ice on the bottom section of the rock wall. The dark green moss and lichens mixed together and spread on the rock wall, like putting a green coat on the rock wall. A large number of them were wider than the two thumbs side by side.

The insects crawled around in the green plants. While devouring the plants, they also covered their bodies with moss spores and lichens of mycelium, unknowingly exerted their strength for the spread of the plants. Seeing this scene, Freya suddenly felt a chill on her back, but fortunately, the last half of the speed drop was that due to the existence of metal claws, her back and the rock wall were kept a certain distance. Otherwise, her clothes would be covered with insect corpses and disgusting mucus.

"I'll come down." Panis shouted on it and fell down the rope. The process of falling was that he almost didn't stop. His feet just slightly tapped the rock wall a few times before landing steadily in front of the girls. As soon as he landed on the ground, Panis also saw the plants and insects on the rock wall, frowned and said, "This is strange."

"What's wrong?" Freya asked in confusion: "Shouldn't there be these plants and bugs here?"

"Of course not." Panis shook his head and said, "It is actually normal to have these things. On the ice field, as long as it is exposed on the ground, there are such things everywhere. But there is a problem. If these things exist, there should be many small monsters here prey on insects and satisfy their hunger, but I haven't seen them before. Ava, you came down first, have you seen other monsters?"

"Not one." Ava shook her head with a straight face, "This is what it was when I came down."

"Then be careful." Panis fixed the lower end of the climbing rope on the ground, waved his hand to signal everyone to move forward along the bottom of the ice crack: "There may be other dangers, such as high-level monsters. They have at least appeared recently, or are still waiting here, so those small monsters dare not come to find food."

The three people kept a high alert and walked along the natural path below the ice crack. Along the way, there were no animals except insects. The more they moved forward, the more strange the three people felt. There was no predator in the place that should have been filled with small predators, which made people feel abnormal no matter how they looked. But fortunately, they had been through the barrier of the iceberg and there was no danger. The three people finally arrived at the other end of the ice crack smoothly.

"Go on." Panis felt a little uneasy in his intuition and urged: "I always feel that the danger is getting closer."

Just like when she was descending, Eva started floating upwards first, climbed to the top of the rock wall, and fixed another climbing rope. Freya grabbed the rope and climbed upwards without waiting for Panis to remind her. Climbing upwards is much more difficult than speed down and takes a lot more time. Not good, she is a mechanic, and relying on the assistance of climbers and other equipment, she can rise at a constant speed without consuming too much effort. It took a lot of time. Freya finally climbed to the top of the ice crack. Before she could stand firm, she heard Eva's scream, and at the same time, she heard a strange sound, just like the sharp scream of the strong wind passing through the crack of the door.
