Xingyue Lake is very large. There is an embankment in Xingyue Town. After climbing over the embankment, you will find Xingyue Lake. If it was an endless lake before it froze, now it has become a world of ice and snow.
Charlotte and others found a random place, jumped off the embankment, stepped on the lake ice, and walked towards the center of Xingyue Lake.
Like the Xiang River, the entire Xingyue Lake is almost frozen. The thick ice can drive a car directly, and Charlotte estimates that it will be no problem to drive a tank.
In order to avoid the people in Xingyue Town, Xia Luo took Zhou Qiang and others away from Xingyue Town.
After walking for about half an hour, everyone could no longer see Xingyue Town when they turned around, and no one was around.
Charlotte lightly stomped the ice with her foot, and it felt very thick. Then she gave a low shout and stomped her right foot hard, only to hear a "click" sound.
A crack as thick as a thumb extended to both sides along Charlotte's feet, extending to more than ten meters away.
Charlotte took a few more steps, changed places, stamped her foot again, and another crack spread.
After doing this three or four times, several cracks opened in the surrounding ice.
"Zhou Qiang, try digging out the ice here."
"good."
Zhou Qiang and others took out their long swords and cut the ice near the crevices, cutting out one-meter-square cubes, and then broke them off with both hands.
After a while, everyone cut a staircase-like ice cave several meters long and several meters deep in the ice.
Zhou Qiang was under the ice cellar and slashed with his sword. Suddenly, a stream of blood seeped out along the cracks in the ice.
"Boss, there are ice fish here."
Zhou Qiang and others seized the time, and after about ten minutes, they dug out a four-meter-long silver carp.
"Such a big fish head, stewed in a pot of good fish soup, absolutely delicious."
Zhou Qiang smiled.
The silver carp is still beating, but it has lost its vitality under the severe cold and is in a dormant state.
Zhou Qiang chopped off the fish head with one sword, revealing a piece of fish skin armor and ten complete genetic fragments.
Immediately afterwards, five or six large fish were dug out from the ice 3 meters below, each of which could explode a dozen complete genetic disks.
In addition to fish skin and hard armor, some fish also have daggers and long swords.
"Boss, the density of ice fish here is much greater than that of the Xiang River. It's such a great place."
Charlotte nodded and said:
"Yes, there are abundant resources here, and fortunately it is winter. If it were normal, we would not be able to deal with so many large mutated fishes. Okay, now that we know what we are doing, we can call it a day and go back."
Everyone jumped out of the ice cave and were about to leave when they saw a group of black shadows running towards us in the distance, and there were more than a dozen birdmen in the sky.
"No, someone is chasing me. What should I do?"
"Don't panic, let's leave immediately and run along the lake towards the entrance of the Xiang River into the lake."
Charlotte said, and everyone started running wildly on the ice. Five birdmen were flying in the air, and the rest were running on the ground.
"Stop, you fish thieves, stop until I kill you and feed you to the bastards."
shouted someone from behind.
The person chasing him was none other than Tan Fa with fifty or sixty of his men.
Tan Fa and others chased to the place where Xia Luo and others had just dug ice fish. They were even more angry when they saw the bodies of five or six big fish dumped on the ice.
For the people of Xingyue Town, they naturally believe that some resources in Xingyue Lake belong to them, and others cannot touch them without their permission.
"Brothers, catch up and kill these fish thieves."
Tan Fa relied on the large number of people and ten masters in the primary stage of primitive genes, so he decided to catch up with Xia Luo and others to punish them.
The fifteen birdmen roared, spread their wings and flew towards Xia Luo and others, while Tan Fa and others chased them on the ground.
No matter how fast Xia Luo and others were, they could not fly as fast as the birdmen. Half an hour later, Tan Fa's fifteen bird men caught up with Xia Luo and others, and fired a burst of arrows at Xia Luo and others.
Charlotte was immediately furious, I don’t want to cause trouble, why do you think I’m afraid of you?
He turned around and led Zhou Qiang and others to fight back.
Five birdmen rushed forward and fought with the fifteen birdmen from Xingyue Town in the air. Charlotte, Zhou Qiang and others were assisting on the ground. How could those fifteen birdmen resist?
Especially Xia Luo, who struck a tiger claw from the air and knocked away a birdman. Zhou Hua and the others did not show weakness, especially the five elemental magicians, who used ice balls, fireballs and electric arcs at the same time, beating the birds away. The people screamed and fell, five of them fell onto the ice.
In less than two minutes, ten of the fifteen birdmen were shot down by Xia Luo and others. The remaining five did not dare to fight and retreated quickly, just when they met Tan Fa and others running over.
When Tan Fa saw this situation, he was furious. Twenty archers bent their bows and fired, and arrows flew like raindrops.
The basic feather and arrow skills of these people are all above level five, and they all use hard bows, which are more powerful than Yang Xiao's bird bow.
Xia Luo activated his light shield, yelled, and rushed over. He hit the cow across the mountain with a palm from the air, and there was a boom. Tan Fa's body shook, and the two companions behind him immediately flew out.
After all, Xia Luo was at the intermediate stage of primitive gene cultivation and was much more powerful than Tan Fa and others. He immediately supported the light shield with his left hand and used his right hand to hit the cow in the air. There was a crackling sound and more than a dozen people were hit by him. fly.
Zhou Qiang and others also rushed up and joined the battle group, beating Tan Fa and others to pieces and being completely defeated.
Tan Fa did not expect that Xia Luo and others were so powerful. He was stunned for a moment. After a while, he left the bodies of several companions and ran away.
Xia Luo and others did not chase, and ran towards Shashi.
In the evening, Xia Luo and others arrived at the entrance of the Xiang River into Xingyue Lake.
"Boss, are we going to spend the night on the ice today?"
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it."
"Will you freeze to death?"
"Keep walking and see if you can find a place to rest ashore nearby."
"It seems that without the teleportation array in Xingyue Town, it would be really difficult for us to dig ice fish in Xingyue Lake."
The group finally groped for two hours in the dark and accidentally stumbled upon a small island on the lake. There was an abandoned house on the island, which was a place where fishermen used to rest and spend the night while fishing.
"Thank God, I finally don't have to spend the night on the ice, otherwise I don't know whether I will wake up tomorrow morning."
Everyone sighed.
They simply tidied up the broken house, cut some branches, and lit a bonfire. Then everyone ate barbecue around the bonfire. They put the ice cubes into the iron cups they carried and put them by the fire to melt. After drinking a few sips of hot water, I sighed and felt comfortable.
Everyone took turns assigning people to be on guard duty, and the rest rested comfortably around the bonfire for the night. When they got up early the next morning, Charlotte walked around the island and found that the island covered an area of about one square kilometer. There are at least one or two hundred big trees, which is considered a unique attraction in the glacial lake.
Suddenly a light flashed in Charlotte's mind and she shouted:
"Zhou Qiang, I have an idea."
Zhou Qiang and others were stunned and asked,
"Boss, what can you do?"
"Can you estimate how far this island is from Xingyue Town?"
"We ran for half a day, probably at least thirty kilometers, right?"
"Well, how far is it from the border of Shashi?"
"About ten kilometers."
"Well, look, wouldn't it be great if we used this island as a temporary base, brought some supplies for overnight rest, dug ice fish here during the day, and spent the night in the house at night?"
"Then send a team of logistics personnel to establish a temporary stronghold at the border of Shashi, ten kilometers away. They will send some daily necessities from ten kilometers away every other day, and then bring back the ice fish resources dug here. In this way Isn't that great?
Although it is not as convenient as using the teleportation array, you can dig ice fish in Xingyue Lake and rob Yuezhou City's resources. And it is estimated that people from Xingyue Town will not come here to patrol at all. There are no people around here and it is deserted. , they would not have thought that we had established a stronghold here. "
Charlotte was very excited about the plan she suddenly found.
Charlotte knew in her heart that it was definitely not a wise move to start a war with Yuezhou City just to dig out ice fish in Xingyue Lake. If she could steal resources like this, she would be extremely happy.
More importantly, Xia Luo felt that he had found a solution that could help Yang Xiao share his troubles.
