Jing Huang heard the sound and walked over and asked Popa for the specific coordinates of the warehouse. He looked at the map on the light screen for a while, and then said, "I'll go get the things first."
"You can try bringing an apprentice agreement with you," Popa said. "Maybe there's something else there. Popa doesn't know what Polavati calls apprentice work clothes, but this looks the closest."
It then gave Jing Huang several other coordinates, which seemed to be frozen objects with doubtful contents. Jing Huang wrote them down one by one, then grabbed a silver box and walked out. He was about to go out when he suddenly looked back at the house.
"Where are the Momolos?" he asked with a frown.
"I'm looking for information inside." Luo Binhan said, "Are you going to call Lao Mo out too? Is this room full of people, young and old?"
"...I don't want to talk to the people in the White Tower, just let him go."
Luo Binhan was conquered by his autism, and he just didn't want to think about any more issues about freezing and the future, so he volunteered: "Master, please let Lao Mo go. Is it okay if I go with you? We are recruiting new employees. I have been through many battles and have seen a lot! I was chatting and laughing with my old man’s HR manager.”
After saying that, he lifted up his belt, put on his antifreeze suit, and followed Jing Huang with a deep look.
They travel along the juncture of ice fields and icebergs. During this period, they encountered some ice crevices with a faint blue sheen, forcing them to take a detour. Perhaps because he was not accustomed to the environment, or perhaps because he was about to awaken a White Tower apprentice, Jing Huang seemed particularly dull and unhappy, and from time to time he would hit the icicles blocking his way with his box.
Luo Binhan thought it was wrong to persecute a diligent student like this, so he had to take the initiative to take the box into his hands. It was indeed a bit heavy, but with his current physical ability, it was nothing.
He felt a little bored during this long journey, so he symbolically pulled Jing Huang's hair with his clumsy anti-freeze gloves and asked, "Can't you just fly over?"
"The environment here is not suitable."
Luo Binhan estimated that this was something related to the "star layer" and "ether", so he had no choice but to continue hiking.
The ice field finally disappeared behind them, followed by a series of horn peaks and ice-eroded valleys. The road became more and more dangerous, and it finally became too much for Luo Binhan. He poked Jing Huang's head and said, "Didn't you tell me it was so far away? There are icebergs and holes everywhere here. If I had known, I would have squatted in the house and let Lao Mo come."
Jing Huang glanced at him disdainfully and said nothing in the end. They bypassed the dangerous area and walked onto a gentle ice slope, and the words of Shuangwei and Marin began to swirl in Luo Binhan's mind again. He didn't understand what made Shuangwei's friends so scared and would rather escape by sleeping in the ice. Marin's point of view also baffled him - Marin was obviously different from him. He didn't have any relatives or friends worth being attached to. He just simply Disgusted with the future and "ultimate truth". So what does that mean?
As for Luo Binhan himself, he didn't have too complicated thoughts. But if there is no one familiar or close to him in the future, how should he anchor himself? This was not the same as wandering on an interstellar pirate ship. He would be forever separated from his past. He couldn't say what was wrong with that, but it must have been quite bad to wake up and find Zhou Yu was gone.
"We're here," Jing Huang said.
They stopped in front of a huge ice cliff. Luo Binhan lowered his head and looked down, and saw a pool of blue, gem-like lake water at the bottom - it was definitely not real water, but probably some kind of liquefied hydrocarbon. In the very depths of the lakeside ice, many vague outlines were faintly visible, as if something was frozen underground.
"How do we get this thing out?" Luo Binhan asked dumbfounded.
"dig." Jing Huang said.
"Fuck, are you digging? I'm standing by to applaud you?"
Jing Huang smiled noncommittally. Luo Binhan suddenly realized that the other party had just told a cold joke on purpose.
A strange feeling spread in his heart.
The wind ruffled Jing Huang's hair. Jing Huang raised his hand, combed it casually, and then said, "I'll go down and wake him up, and bring the box."
Luo Binhan carried the box and took two steps toward him: "Why are you so anxious? This place is quite poetic. I want to see it for a while."
"You think there's poetry here?"
"How can it not be poetic? A human popsicle, a frost planet, and an energy tower are all there is to it."
He stood next to Jing Huang, pointed to the ice below and said, "Look at that piece of ice, does it look like a flower?"
Jing Huang looked over and obviously couldn't find any ice that looked like flowers, so Luo Binhan said again: "I remembered it. I went to the hospital to see Zhou Yu and called you to bring me some condolences, but you damn... I bought a big bouquet of white roses. What did you think at the time? Do you give white roses to patients? "
"Just take it." Jing Huang replied without any guilt.
Luo Binhan took a step back in disgust, and then cursed: "Do you know what Zhou Yu looked at me when he saw me holding flowers? It's a good thing my mother didn't know about this, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain anything..."
He swung his arm suddenly and slammed the silver box in his hand into the back of the other person's head. This powerful blow successfully knocked the opponent off the cliff. Then Luo Binhan immediately ran away from the cliff, while trying his best to take out the gravity twister containing the rapid fire drop from his pocket.
The antifreeze suit severely hindered his movements, and he did not dare to risk stopping. He could only try to pull his arm out of the sleeve of the antifreeze suit while running.
He managed to run about ten steps and then stopped where he was, unable to move. It was by no means exhausted or stuck in the crevasse. He felt something firmly anchoring his feet.
Luo Binhan had experienced this situation a long time ago. So he lowered his head and saw a shadow that did not belong to him at the bottom of his feet. Under such a gloomy and gloomy sky, the slender shadow was still as black as ink.
Something squirmed in the shadows.
Insects as dim as gray frost emerged from the shadows and crawled towards his shoes and trousers. These gray insects were only the size of a fingernail, but their number seemed endless, as if they were slowly swamping him.
Through the antifreeze suit, Luo Binhan could feel them trying to squeeze into his skin. He had nowhere to escape, and he did not dare to open the closed antifreeze suit rashly. He could only redouble his efforts to try to pull his hand out of the sleeve of the antifreeze suit.
"You are alert." A voice said behind him.
Luo Binhan turned his head stiffly.
A young man in red is suspended above the ice cliff. He was unscathed and stayed quietly in the void like a phantom. The strong wind blew his clothes and hair, and in the violent air currents that carried ice particles, he smiled as if nothing had happened.
He landed on the ice and walked slowly towards Luo Binhan. Countless shadows slipped out of his clothes, completely covering and hiding him. When the darkness faded, standing in front of Luo Binhan was a long-haired girl who looked to be about the same age as Jing Huang. She stopped two meters away from Luo Binhan, as if she didn't intend to get close to the gray worms.
The girl was wearing a black cloth suit with long arrow sleeves, giving it a bit of an ancient knight-errant feel. However, her upper body was also covered with a metal vest that had a strong sense of technology. Luo Binhan had only seen this kind of weird costume once before, and that was the night when he and Jing Huang first met.
The girl combed her black hair with her hands, and then looked at Luo Binhan with deep eyes.
"Pay tribute to our common ancestors." She said, "There is no need to mourn for a long separation."
A shadow flashed out from under her feet. It was faster than Fina. Luo Binhan only saw it appear, but he didn't know where it landed until a light cold feeling penetrated his abdomen, and then it started to heat up again.
Luo Binhan lowered his head and found that his antifreeze suit had been punctured, and a hole slightly larger than his fist appeared in his stomach. He didn't know how deep the hole was, but he could feel the cold wind passing through it.
The blood and organs slipped out of the hole, and were immediately frozen by the cold outside, hanging heavily outside the clothes. A few grains of blood ice fell to the ground, and the insects on the soles of the feet immediately swarmed up, greedily eating them up.
"A living brain is more useful to them," he heard the girl's voice say, "but it's cold here and you won't feel much pain."
Her voice and shadow quickly faded away, disappearing without a trace. Luo Binhan did not feel any pain. He reluctantly pulled his feet out from the swarm of insects, staggered back a few steps, and fell to the ground.
His lower body completely lost consciousness and his vision began to blur. The insect swarm turned into a chaotic gray tide and crawled towards him quickly. He couldn't use his feet anymore, so he had to use his arms to move back as much as possible.
The temperature of his body was dropping rapidly, and Luo Binhan was even surprised that he could still stay awake. When the gray tide invaded his feet, he tried his best to cross his body and smashed the silver box in his hand.
The gray tide collapsed a few pieces, and then surged towards him with increasing force. He realized that he could never stay where he was, so he pushed himself to the ground with all his strength, held the silver box and rolled towards the ice cliff ten steps away. The slightly sloping ice helped him, allowing him to slide to the edge of the cliff without much effort.
The Gray Tide was finally left behind by him. Then he fell into the air and fell towards nowhere.
