Chapter 2033: Breaking the ice (two chapters in one)(1/2)
"Huh..."
"Tap, step, step..."
The wind was blowing, and when walking in the snow, every time my feet stepped down, a deep snow pit would appear in the thick snow on the ground.
Bright light emitted from the luminous stone, illuminating the path under his feet. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickly walked out of the valley step by step.
"Click, click, click..."
Amidst the sound of the wind, loud movements continued one after another, without any intention of stopping, but intensified.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, frowned and kept wondering whether the sound was, as he thought, the sound caused by the cracking of the ice on the lake outside the valley.
After a while, the pig-headed captain, holding a luminous stone and a brown birthmark on his forehead, walked out of the valley.
There was a lake not far ahead. Standing at the entrance of the valley with a brown birthmark on his forehead, the pig-headed captain noticed that the movement coming from the wind was becoming more and more violent.
Although he has not yet gone to the lake shore to observe, at this moment, where the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is standing, listening to the noise coming from the distance, he simulates a scene in his mind of someone fighting on the ice.
A smashing scene.
"boom."
"Click."
"boom."
"Click."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said to himself, "This sound is so strange, what's going on?"
Then, he started walking towards the lake not far ahead.
"..." When the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came to the shore of the lake, he raised the luminous stone in his hand high, and the bright light immediately shone on the lake.
When a small area in front was fully illuminated, the sight of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead made him widen his eyes.
Outside the valley, on the frozen lake, there were many white beetles half a meter long.
These white beetles are hammering the ice with the horns on their heads. The hammer-like horns make a banging sound when they hit the thick ice. The continuous hammering makes the hard ice
The ice surface cracked.
The noise I heard not long ago was caused by the swarms of white beetles in front of me. As for why they appeared on the frozen lake at night to hammer the ice, this strange behavior is really puzzling.
"Zhizhizhi..."
There was a sudden movement beside him, and the pig-headed captain, who was looking at the white beetles on the ice in the distance with a brown birthmark on his forehead, immediately noticed something unusual.
"Buzz..."
There was a sound of flapping wings, and something was flying towards me quickly.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not change his expression. Then he squatted down, bent his knees, put his feet on the ground, and jumped back a certain distance.
"Zhizhizhi..."
The thing that flew toward the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was a white beetle.
He was about to pounce on his target, but was dodged instead.
After landing, the white beetle turned around and made a harsh cry at the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.
"We can't let these things continue to destroy the ice. The previously cracked ice will freeze again. If it is broken by these things, the strange beasts in the lake will definitely come out again, which will cause a lot of trouble."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead ignored the white beetle that was screaming at him, thought about it in his mind, and decided to return to the camp first and tell his friends about what he saw.
"Zhizhizhi..."
The white beetle that attacked the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw his target turn away. He was stunned for a second, then flapped his wings and flew up, quickly chased after him, and launched another attack.
Returning to the camp, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard the noise coming from behind him again. Knowing that the other party was attacking him again, he muttered a few words that only he could hear, and then suddenly
Turning around, he waved the spiritual sword in his hand.
"call out."
The pale golden sword energy was slashed out, and the white beetle that rushed towards the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had no time to dodge and ran into the sharp pale golden sword energy.
"Pfft."
The white beetle that was cut into two was instantly lifeless. It fell from mid-air and hit the snow. It stirred up a flurry of snowflakes and thick liquid overflowed from the wound, making a small area sticky.
The smell of dead white beetles is not very good, but fortunately the wind is very strong now, so the unpleasant smell cannot last long and is quickly dissipated by the wind.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead casually killed a white beetle, then turned around and walked towards the valley.
On the frozen lake, the white beetle that was tapping the ice did not stop tapping the ice because of the battle in the distance.
In their opinion, breaking open the frozen lake in front of them seems to be the most important thing.
"Zhizhizhi..."
"Bang, bang, bang..."
"Click, click, click..."
Various sounds intertwined together, originating from the frozen lake and spreading rapidly to the surroundings.
In the dark night, when you can't see clearly what is on the frozen lake, and when you hear such a strange and loud noise, a normal person will definitely have doubts in his heart.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead quickened his pace and walked into the valley. A few minutes later, he returned to the camp.
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain stood under the eaves, waiting for his friend to return.
The moment he saw the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walking into the camp, he immediately walked out from under the eaves and greeted him.
"What's going on outside?" the handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain asked.
"I went to the frozen lake to investigate and found that there were many white beetles hammering the ice. They seemed to want to break the frozen lake..."
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, said to his friend while brushing off the snow that fell on his body.
"White beetles?" The handsome pig-headed logistics captain heard this, with a puzzled expression on his face, "It's freezing cold now. If you don't find a place to hide, you run out to the lake and beat the ice. There's something wrong with these things.
?"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead shook his head and said, "I don't know if there is anything wrong with those white beetles, but I can confirm one thing.
If those white beetles are allowed to continue hammering the ice, the frozen lake will definitely be broken open, and the strange beasts in the lake will probably escape."
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain's face suddenly changed after hearing what his friend said.
Although the strange beasts that came out of the lake several times before were repelled, they also spent a lot of time dealing with those strange beasts.
At this time, the weather is bad, the wind is freezing, and the snow is falling. In such a bad environment, it takes more time and energy to deal with those strange beasts than before.
Once the ice surface is destroyed by those white beetles, as the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said, another alien beast comes out. Even if the pig-headed warriors win the battle, what they pay and what they get is not enough.
Proportional.
"In this case, let's go out quickly and clean up those white beetles that are attacking the ice, lest they destroy the frozen lake and allow the strange beasts in the lake to escape." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain said.
.
"Yes." The pig-headed man captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, "You call everyone out, and we will set off quickly."
After a while, all the pig-headed warriors who heard the call of the handsome pig-headed logistics captain ran out of the warm cabin and gathered in the snow.
"The current situation is like this..." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain gathered his men and briefly explained the situation.
After the pig-headed soldiers listened to the explanation of the handsome pig-headed logistics captain, they immediately shouted and rushed out to clean up those white beetles.
"Let's go." The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain felt very pleased when he felt the morale of his men. He waved his hand and led the pig-headed soldiers outside the camp.
The pig-headed captain, who was standing aside with a brown birthmark on his forehead, saw everyone setting off and quickly followed them.
…………
"call……"
"Crunch, crunch, crunch..."
The wind and snow were raging across the land, and the big trees growing around the frozen lake were swaying violently.
As the wind became louder and louder, the range of the sound caused by the white beetles hitting the ice became smaller.
However, because the valley where the pig-headed camp is located is not very far from the frozen lake, the pig-headed warriors heard the loud noises in the distance very clearly.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
"Click, click, click..."
Compared with the noise that the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead heard before when he came out to check the situation, the noise caused by those white beetles was now much louder.
The handsome-looking pig-headed logistics captain in charge of the command led the pig-headed soldiers to the combat site. He first began to sense and explore the situation at the scene, and then shouted to several pig-headed men.
"illumination."
"Yes." Several pig-headed soldiers heard the order from the handsome pig-headed logistics captain and nodded immediately. Then they created light balls of different colors and shot them into the sky.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
As a wave of spiritual energy surged, one after another, light balls of different colors flew into the sky.
To be continued...
