Chapter 63 Freya's Cabin

The roaring gunfire continued, and large groups of energy bombs hit the ice. The ice and snow had been vaporized before they could melt in the high temperature, turning into a fog of nothingness floating in the air. After more than twenty consecutive shots, the solid ice surface could not continue to persist. After the last energy bomb collided with the ice, it rushed directly under the ice and flew into the darkness along the passage behind the ice.

"Huh, it's so difficult, but there's finally a place to spend the night. My luck is really good." Freya verified her guess, exhaled in a good mood, and looked inside at the entrance of the hole that was opened by herself. Obviously, the entrance of the hole is not natural, and some people don't know how to use it to dig an obliquely downward tunnel from the foot of the iceberg. The tunnel is very spacious, enough to accommodate a normal human being standing and moving forward, even the edge of the tunnel is decorated.

It is often neat, and it doesn't look like a casual digging of a shelter, but it looks like carefully decorating a commonly used room. However, many years have passed since the tunnel excavation time, and the entrance of the tunnel is once again covered with solid ice, completely burying the secret of the tunnel under the ice. If Freya had not observed carefully enough and had keenly discovered the slight difference in the color of the ice, I am afraid that in a few years, the tunnel would never have the chance to appear in the sun again.

"I don't know who you are, but no matter what, I have to thank you." Freya thanked the pioneer who dug the tunnel, and then put her head into the inside of the tunnel. With the help of the cold wind on the ice field, the dirty air in the tunnel was quickly replaced, and there was no abnormality when breathing. The sky was completely dark. The girl thought about it, took out the small lantern for emergency use, recharged it with crystal stones, and lit it in the hole. Although the tunnel was not deep, it was about ten meters long. The small lantern could not let her see the situation inside. In desperation, Freya could only hang the lantern on her waist, held the crystal gun in both hands, and limped into the tunnel.

There is a drop of tens of centimeters between the entrance and the ground of the tunnel, which should be caused by the rising of the ground over the years by the ice layer gradually rising. Hesitantly, the ground is composed of pure ice. Therefore, it is very slippery, making it almost difficult to stand on it. Fortunately, the person standing here is Freya, who can use the small equipment on his shoes to stabilize his steps. If someone else in the adventure group is replaced, he may slide down the slightly tilted tunnel to the deepest part of the cave.

After walking a few steps, Freya could not hear any other sounds except for the echoes of her footsteps and her heavy breathing sounds, and did not notice any abnormalities. The girl breathed a sigh of relief, and replaced it with a crystal gun in one hand, took off the lantern with her left hand, and looked at both sides. Just as I found outside the cave before, the ice walls on both sides were neatly decorated, and the digger was very bored at first glance. She pursued perfection so much that even the caves that were dug casually must be neat.

"It seems that this is safe, there is nothing inside." Walking along the passage, it didn't take long to see the blurry walls and the reflected lights from the end of the cave, and it seemed that they had already reached the deepest point. Freya sighed and just relaxed, but the corner of her eyes suddenly jumped, and she cried in surprise: "No, that's not the reflection of the wall, that's. Is that an igloo?"

No wonder Freya was surprised. The appearance of the igloo was beyond her expectations. A spacious circular hole was dug at the end of the tunnel. In the center of the hole, an ice-making hut stood. For Freya, it was like a gift given to her by the gods. If there were still hot bread on the table in the hut, it would be perfect. Of course, if you think about it, you would know that it was just a dream. However, even if you did not have the soft bread that was steaming, you could find such a place to live on the hell-like ice field, which was favored by the gods.

"I hope I won't meet the owner of the house inside." The discovery outside made Freya feel very good. She walked around the space between the igloo and the four walls of the cave. After searching carefully, she didn't find any danger. Then she said half-jokingly: "It's best not to meet whether it's dead or alive."

Walking along the door without a door into the igloo, Freya's hanging heart finally let go. There was no creature in the igloo, neither dead nor alive. The ground of the igloo and the ground of the cave were not horizontal, and it was about one and a half meters lower inside than outside. Once you entered the door, you had to go through several downward steps to enter the main space of the igloo. The space of the igloo is not too large, and it can only accommodate four people to move normally inside. Four beds are placed in one corner of the house, three long and one short. The bed is covered with thick animal skins, and a large amount of animal hair is padded under the animal skins, making the whole bed soft and warm. Although it has been baptized by time, due to the low temperature and the effect of the confined space, the animal skins are still elastic and soft and smooth to the touch.

On the other side of the house, there is a set of ice-made tables and chairs, and the tables and chairs are covered with animal skins, and they are clean and dusty, just like a newly made one. In addition, there are no other special items in the igloo. There were traces of items placed in many places, but now they have become empty. It is estimated that the owner of the igloo took away all the items that could be taken away when he left, leaving only the simplest furniture.

"It's so good here, it's like a dream. But I always feel that this way of building a house is familiar. It seems that I have used it on the snow field before." Freya carefully checked one of the beds, without any danger, and then sat down on the soft animal skin, relaxed her sore legs, and looked around the room, hoping to find some clues. After only a few seconds, the girl patted her forehead and stood up, smiling self-deprecatingly, because she found that there was a leather bag on the animal skin spread on the table. Because the color was close, she didn't notice it when she came in just now.

I opened the animal skin bag and placed a few parchment paper with words in it. The beautiful notes made people feel very comfortable at first glance.

"To unknown latecomers." The words on the parchment can be clearly seen under the lantern: "Do you like this gift? This was built during our 25-day ice field trip. The idiot and I both thought that this hut might be helpful to latecomers, so it was not demolished when we left. I hope we were right and it really helped you."
