Chapter 24: The world needs more hunters(1/2)

When Al woke up, he felt something itchy on his neck.

It turned out that the wind was blowing the down on the elephant bear's belly, so that these soft hairs were tickling her neck.

She also wore Yanagihara's motorcycle helmet on her head, which ensured that her skin would not suffer frostbite due to exposure.

I slept very warmly last night, and the stove beside me was still burning.

But Al didn't remember how she fell asleep. She only remembered that Yanagi Yuan seemed to have sang a song in a language she had never heard before. The song was very melodious and echoed under the stars, so she

Looking at the galaxy, I fell asleep unconsciously.

Turning his head and looking to his side, Al found that Yanagihara was not awake yet. At this time, the wanderer was holding one of the bear's legs with his hands and feet, sleeping soundly and drooling.

The next moment, Yanagi Yuan turned over.

In Al's horrified eyes, there was a sound of bones breaking from the elephant bear's thick forelimbs.

You must sleep farther away from Liuyuan from now on.

Secretly making up his mind, Al took out a piece of dried meat from his pocket, opened his helmet and ate it.

Yanagihara woke up around nine in the morning. The reason why the time was so accurate was because she took out her pocket watch and checked the time when she got up.

Putting aside the forelimbs of the elephant bear that had been completely broken in his arms, Yanagihara sat up while holding his hair.

Her consciousness was a little blurry, which made her want to use her special way of getting up to wake herself up, but considering that Al was beside her, she did not do that in the end.

The sun has completely risen, and the sunlight is shining brightly on the snow.

Elle squatted by the fire and boiled snow water. The dancing flames and steaming water vapor made her vision a little blurry.

Suddenly, she asked Liuyuan, who was sitting aside and washing his face with snow.

"Liuyuan, you said we are going to die, but what exactly are we going to do?"

"Hold on." Yanagi Yuan wiped his face with his hands so hard that the sound he made was a little weird.

"We will go to the east sea and sink to the bottom of the sea."

"Wouldn't this be painful?"

"No, usually, when you fall into the sea, you are already too cold to feel anything. You will lose consciousness in a few seconds at most."

"Is that so?"

"Hmm, ah..." Liuyuan, who was washing his face, suddenly called out.

"What's wrong?" Al looked back.

"Oh, it's nothing." Liuyuan turned his back to Al and put an eyeball that he had accidentally dug out back into his eye socket.

"Get ready, it's time for us to set off."

"Yeah." Al nodded, not noticing anything strange about Yanagihara, and picked up the boiled snow water and took a sip.

After Liu Principle corrected his eyeballs, he walked to the side of the snowmobile and determined the direction with the compass on the dashboard.

"East side..."

After making sure, she raised her head and looked towards the east.

There is a huge snowfield canyon.

······

"To get to the ice wall on the eastern plain, you have to pass through this canyon."

On the other side of the eastern plain, a team of mercenaries has also arrived at the outskirts of the plain canyon.

The team was being repaired, and one of the employees was sitting on the ground, holding a map and analyzing it to the others.

"Due to the terrain, you may encounter some wild animals that have not yet left on the way through the canyon, so you must always be careful and never allow wild animals to get close."

There are four people in this team of hirers, three men and one woman. After hearing the first person's reminder, the other three people nodded and said.

"Don't worry, captain, we won't take our lives for granted."

"Well, you must be careful anyway." The employee called the captain said, then turned his head and looked at a young man in the team.

"Mr. Droso, you just need to stay in the car when the time comes. We will ensure your safety."

"No problem." The young man smiled and arranged the things in his hands.

Today is Deroso's third day away from Greenhouse No. 4.

He sold his studio on Thumb Street and used the obtained ore to buy ten boxes of paint. At the same time, he hired a team of hirelings to take him to the ice wall east of the greenhouse.

His condition has worsened again, and now he can feel heart pain several times a day, and sometimes he has to take medicine to make himself feel better.

But he was still in a good mood, because he was looking forward to the day when he arrived at the ice wall. Because he was looking forward to his final work.

That will be the treasure he leaves to this world, the beauty that blooms in disasters.

He would die a worthy death, he was sure of it.

The team set out again. The tracks of the snowmobile left deep imprints on the snow. At the end of the imprints, the vehicle traveled farther and farther.

Because of the track built in the greenhouse, except for those who want to cross the ice sheet on their own and those with special destinations, few people usually pass through this canyon in the eastern plains.

This makes this canyon almost untouched by anyone, and even the map is not very detailed. There are only a few simple lines indicating the direction in which the canyon extends.

Unknown things always represent danger, but considering that the herd had just been driven away, the employees took Deloso into the canyon without thinking too much.

It's a pity that they didn't consider that in this world, there is a kind of creature that can grow infinitely, and the more inaccessible the place, the bigger they grow.

But it's not their fault. After all, this kind of creature does not pose any threat to humans in normal times. It has always been at the bottom of the food chain, so it is really difficult for people to take them seriously.

The snowmobile was traveling, and the light was dim in the deep canyon.

This canyon is at least twenty meters deep. The bottom of the canyon is not narrow, but it is definitely not open. If you encounter a wild beast in this place, it will obviously be a very bad situation.

On the snowmobile, the employees looked around intently, holding their rifles horizontally, ready to deal with possible dangers.

It is undeniable that compared to the vast majority of employees, their quality is very high, even to the point where they are comparable to Guard soldiers.

However, even so, they still failed to notice the movement under the snow.

Where their snowmobiles passed, patches of snow would occasionally be turned up and then settle down again, as if something was moving underneath.

It's just that the movement was so small that no one sitting in the car on the snow could notice it in time.

Until a turning sound woke up the employee in the back seat of the car.

"stop!"

He raised his hand and said.

Out of trust, the captain immediately stopped the snowmobile.

"What's wrong?"

"Did you hear anything?" the employee in the back seat of the car said. He stood up with the rifle in his hand and listened carefully.

Others heard his words and frowned, listening to the sounds in the canyon.

It was very quiet in the canyon, there should be no sound at all, only the occasional wind would make a whistling sound.

But at this moment, a strange voice did appear.

"rustle···"

The sound was very soft, like something turning over the snow.

The captain of the hirelings lowered his head and glanced into the snow, and then he saw a patch of snow being turned over.

"Everyone be on alert!"

"Kaka!" The four hirelings raised their guns at the same time.

"Be careful, there is something in the snow." The mercenary captain frowned and stood on the driver's seat, pointing his gun at the snow.

But at this time, a change had already occurred.

"Swiss, swiss, swish!" I heard an increasingly rapid stirring sound.

The snow around the snowmobile began to rise and fall.

The employees in the car looked gloomy, because they all knew that according to the current situation, there were either a lot of things or a big thing under the snow in front of them.

No matter which situation it is, it is obviously not a good thing for them.

"boom!"

A hired man fired a shot into the snow, then immediately turned around and shouted.

"Quick! Start the snowmobile!"

"You don't need to say it!" The mercenary captain immediately restarted the snowmobile and rushed out of the canyon.

But the thing under the snow obviously had no intention of letting them go.

After quickly turning the snow, the ground trembled.

"Boom!" A loud noise sounded.
