Chapter 54 Igloo

"Okay, stop making trouble." Panis patted the blue hand, who was still humming in anger, and comforted him: "We didn't lie to you, but you may not be able to taste this kind of wine. But I promise that when we finish the work, we will definitely send you a few buckets of wine in a few days. You will definitely taste those wines. However, I doubt you will like it. After all, alcohol cannot play any role in your body. It is difficult to understand the feeling we are talking about just by taste."

"It doesn't matter, as long as it feels fresh, but don't let me wait for so many years." Lanshou thought for a while and nodded, "And prepare more, I'll share it with my friends to drink. Ah, by the way, I'm here with my friends. You want to bake food for me. I like that, and I both want to eat it."

"So the other few are your friends." Panis glanced into the fog and said, "Why didn't you come together?"

"I forgot." Lan's hand patted his head, stood up and made a series of strange shouts at the fog. Soon, with various responses, three more ice crystals emerged from the fog.

The ice crystals all have strange appearances and vary greatly in size. The ice shape of the blue hand is an iceberg that is more than ten meters high, and the human form is also a giant that is more than five meters high. The other three are not similar to the blue hand. The first is a large ice hockey with a diameter of about three meters. The ice hockey has no hands and feet, and its way of action is actually rolling. The second is a sharp ice cone that is more than seven meters long, thin at the top and thick at the bottom. The tail end of the ice cone stretches out two slender legs like the blue hand just now. This is the result of the mixture of ice form and human form. As for the third one, if it weren't for the blue hand reminder, I'm afraid everyone would have to wait.

Only when they get close can they notice it. Because the third one is a square ice cube, but it is only more than 30 centimeters long, the ice cube does not walk by itself, but sticks to the ice cone. The ice cone drives forward. The ice crystal language they use to communicate is also very special, with high and low, and its pronunciation is crisp, sounding like the sound of ice colliding with each other. It is also like the friction sound when the ice layer cracks. This language is very chaotic, and some syllables cannot be emitted normally with human voice lines, but there is no difficulty for ice crystals. They have used this language to communicate with each other since the ancient mythology.

The three ice crystals walked closer, and the ice cubes stuck to the back of the ice cone fell off first. In the air, they burst into a ball of ice fog like the blue hand. When they appeared in front of everyone again, they had become an ice man only more than 30 centimeters tall. Everyone's eyes were attracted by this little thing. When they looked up again, the other two people had completed the form transformation.

The person transformed with ice cone is very tall, almost as tall as the Blue Hand, but his figure is relatively thin, narrower than normal humans, and his hands and feet are very long. Three-quarters of the height is occupied by his legs, and the height of one calf has exceeded Catherine's height. As for the other person transformed with ice hockey, it is a round ice man, which is similar to the current shrinking height of Blue Hand, and its width is relatively close to the height.

"You two must have a common language." Vivian hit Freya with her elbow and whispered: "I think you two are very suitable for being friends and can discuss a lot of things together."

"The first thing I need to discuss is how to beat you up." Freya stared at Vivian squintedly and said dissatisfiedly: "You idiot, wait and see. It's better to pray that your illness will never be cured, otherwise once it is cured, Lina and I will make you cry even if you can't cry. Wait, that day is not far away, hum."

"Do you think I'm afraid of you? It's ridiculous." Vivian stuck out her tongue under the cover-up scarf, twisted her face and snorted gently, shook her head and said, "When the time comes, I'm going to have the strength, and who's crying isn't necessarily the one who's crying."

The two mages and scholars whispered in a low voice without any grace and dignity, but it did not affect the Blue Hand to introduce his friends to Panis and Catherine: "The smallest one is a dull angle. When he was born, there was a corner that was different from the other seven, as if it was as smooth as a small piece, so it was called dull angle. The thinnest one was called 4.5 degrees. Her body was not a regular cone, and the top angle was tilted to the right by 4.5 degrees. And the round one was called foul ball, because it was the most standard ball among all ice crystals. The three of them could understand your common words, but they had not learned your pronunciation yet, so they could not speak foul words. If there was anything I could translate for them. Okay, now the introduction is over, when will you roast food for us?"

"Uh, okay, okay, I'll bake it for you now." Panis sighed helplessly and said to Catherine: "Let's camping a little earlier today, otherwise they would probably be clamored to death. They are so terrible."

"Yes." Catherine said with a smile: "Anyway, when we were hiding from the new life rift just now, we were tired of running away, so it would be good to rest now. Not enough, there is no cover at all around us. It is dangerous to just rest like this. Even if we are not attacked by the passing monsters, we will be frozen to death by the low temperature at night."

"Don't worry, the situation is much better than I expected. With these ice crystals here, we can save the trouble of creating cover ourselves. They will help us solve the cover problem." Panis shouted to the Blue Hand who was talking to his companion Ding Dangdang: "Hey, Blue Hand, if you want to eat barbecue, please help us build a house first, otherwise we can't bake it."

"This is simple." Lan Hand stopped and slapped the ground casually. So a few minutes later, a house was built. It is not accurate to say that the house is a semicircular sphere building. The sphere is five or six meters high, and there is a hole on one side of the edge of one side as a gate. The gate is very high, which can completely allow a creature with a height of three or four meters to pass through. There is also a small round hole at the top of the sphere to be used for ventilation. This is a building formed of ice, all buildings.

The material is all transparent ice. When the blue hand slapped the ground, the ice layer on the ground changed. The ice layer began to slowly increase and gradually formed from the walls of the bunker. It took only three or four minutes to make the embarrassing house. The blue hand stood up and waved to the three friends. The current highest level was 4.5 degrees, and then broke off one of his legs, threw his original body aside, making his body shape become a smaller self so that he could enter the door of the bunker.

Looking into the bunker along the door without doors, the space inside was very large, enough to accommodate more than a dozen people playing inside, and it didn't feel crowded at all. The girls in the adventure group looked at each other, obviously surprised by all this in front of them. However, the multi-faceted adventure life made the girls see many strange things, so they did not be surprised for long, and then walked into the inside with the ice crystals.

After entering the bunker, the temperature did not rise, but the cold wind everywhere on the ice field could no longer affect the members of the adventure group. I felt much more comfortable all of a sudden. The ice crystals who came in had already sat in the corner, staring at Panis with their eyes curled up. Panis smiled bitterly and said to Vivian: "Current this place with flames, otherwise it would not be so easy to ignite the barbecue."

"Is it okay if it heats up?" Vivian looked at the surrounding ice wall: "I'm worried that after the heat rises, these ice will melt. Will the ice crystals also melt as well?"

"You underestimate them too much." Panis shook his head and explained: "They are elemental creatures themselves, and they are naturally friendly to ice elements and can control ice and snow freely. As long as you don't use high-intensity fire-attribute magic to burn them for a long time, you will be fine. It's just that simple heating will not have any impact on them at all. As for this igloo, Blue Hand has automatically solidified the ice elements when making it. Even if it is ignited directly on the ground, it won't melt at all. It's much safer than what we do ourselves. So you can warm up with confidence, it's okay."

"That's good. It seems that I can live a lot more comfortable these days than before in the snowfield." Vivian nodded, and with a wrist, poured a bottle of potion into the palm of his hand, and then exclaimed. A ball of beating flames rose from the palm of his hand. The mage girl closed her eyes and recited several spells. The flames in her hand immediately burned vigorously, and the scale of the flames became larger and larger.

As the magic flames burned, the room became warmer and warmer. The girls had taken off their outermost coats, but they still felt a little hot. Just as Penis said, not only did the ice walls have no signs of melting, but even the ground that originally thought was ordinary ice and snow remained dry without any signs of melting.

Panis nodded with satisfaction. He took out the crystal energy stove from his backpack. After activation, a ball of open flame emerged from the stove, and blue and yellow light jumped on the stove surface. Several ice crystals were not afraid of this level of flame, but not being afraid did not mean they liked it. They were born to be disgusted with the fire elements and tried to sit close to the ice wall. To the greatest extent, the flames they hated were the flames they hated. Panis ignored them anymore, took out the grill and various condiments and placed them one by one, and then took out some wild beasts that had been hunted on the snow field from their backpack.

One of the biggest troubles in adventure is the issue of food preservation. Adventurers often hunt a large beast hard, and before they can eat it for a day or two, the meat starts to deteriorate, and they can only regretfully abandon the spoiled food. Of course, using smoke can also slow down the deterioration rate slightly. However, in a crisis-ridden environment, no one has the leisure to spend one or two days smoking meat. Instead of wasting time like this, it is better to hunt another beast as soon as possible.

To this end, adventurers have thought of many ways to preserve the remaining food, but have never achieved any significant results.

However, these are all troubles in adventures elsewhere, which will not appear on ice and snow fields. One of the biggest benefits of adventures in this environment is that food can be preserved for a long time and there is no need to consider the problem of rot and deterioration. Natural cold can solve all the troubles in this area.

Panis picked up the legs of an unknown beast. These beasts were hunted and stopped vomiting. They were all treated with preliminary treatment. The fur had been stripped off and the abdomen was cleaned. Therefore, the original species of the beast was not visible at all. Only it was seen that it was a four-legged animal.

Cut off the hind legs of the prey, Panis said to the ice crystals while finely processing the materials: "Blue Hand, why do you suddenly appear here? I remember that your tribe is still a distance away from here?"

"We're out to play." The Frost Giant explained: "It came out more than seven years ago, and I met humans a few years ago. But those humans were not fun at all, and they knew that they would walk with their heads in their mouths, unlike you who would let the flames perform and dance. However, the manpower and a few of them fell asleep on the ice field in the end, and the others walked out of the ice field smoothly."

"That's a coincidence." Panis said: "I thought it would take a lot of effort to find you, but I didn't expect to meet you directly. I was so lucky."

"It's not a coincidence." Lan Hand shook his head and said, "We are chasing a strange sphere. The sphere will stretch its body and turn into a film, and will jump on the ground. By the way, you have seen it, there are many creatures of this type on the yellow-haired dwarf, and there are many kinds of creatures on the ice field." Although the types are different."

"Well, I did see it, and it should be the one you are chasing, and we were almost attacked by it." Panis said: "But what are you chasing that creature? It seems that there is no threat to you, why do you have to chase him?"

"It's fun." Lan Hand replied naturally: "The elastic ball can jump and roll on the ice, and it looks very fun. We really want to catch one, so we keep chasing him behind him. However, the intelligence of this creature is too low. I guess even if I play with him, it doesn't mean much. Why not come and play with you."

"Well, you chased him for fun." Panis sighed and said, "And we are not here to play with you. We are here to Icefield this time, but there are very important things to do."

"It's okay, you don't have to compensate." Lanshu said, "You humans are so interesting. We just need to watch from the side. By the way, I seem to have forgotten to ask, why are you here on the ice field? Are you just here to deliver wine?"
