Chapter 328 Frostwhisper's Frozen Blood
"What's this?"
Si Anke was suffocated by the almost cruel spectacle in front of him.
What appeared in front of them was a bizarre and desperate situation reminiscent of an icehouse or an ice and snow park——
In an airtight basement completely covered in ice, there are nine human-shaped ice sculptures sitting around a round table.
Some people stood up angrily, some calmly relaxed their bodies and spread their hands, some people whispered with the people around them, some people leaned back and seemed to want to stay away from others...
Like a work of art, the ice sculpture composed of nine elves, four men, five women, and nine elves with different movements and expressions, seems to have life.
But it is significantly different from sculpture.
The movements of the sculptures are always exaggerated. In order to highlight the sense of strength or weakness, or to maintain a sense of physical or artistic balance... Perhaps the movements of one or two human sculptures will be very similar to real people, but if there are plural sculptures, they will immediately A slight incongruity is noticed that is different from the real person.
It's like capturing and posing.
But what appeared in front of Si Anke and them was a "captured" scene.
He could even see a man whose eyelids were only opened by a small slit, and even looked a little stupid, and he didn't know whether he was opening or closing his eyes; he could also see that the facial features of the man with an angry expression were twisted and crooked.
It was as if time suddenly stood still.
"……What's happening here?"
he murmured.
"They're all Frostwhisperers."
Citalopram, as the only human ghost translator-or a psychic, simultaneously translated Miss Boffis's words to the other players: "But don't be nervous. They maintain this action, not triggering any trap... …they all volunteered to come to the underground chamber and give their lives.
"Or rather, they were planning to hide in a public nightmare. It was just one last use of their bodies before they escaped."
"...So, is this a ceremony?"
Si An Mo quickly reacted.
Citalopram responded immediately: "Yes, exactly."
They are in this position, even in this "sewer" is the lowest position.
They walked along the sewer into the city, turning left and right for a while, and walked inside for more than 20 minutes before they finally found a building that looked like a huge well.
The wellhead of this "well" is more than three meters above the ground. But it's not difficult to climb...because there are steps leading to the well. And the stairs are very spacious, not so narrow and short that you can step on them sideways.
This shows that the designer has considered the possibility of someone running here from the sewers from the very beginning.
After they boarded the wellhead, they found that there were U-shaped steel pipes like a stapler inside, and a ladder-like structure was formed on both sides of the wellhead.
They climbed down - nearly five minutes, before they finally got here. The further down the road, the colder it gets. Halfway through the journey, the steel pipe is already sealed with a layer of ice. After three-quarters of the way, the surrounding area has completely turned into a world of ice and snow.
Yes, there are not even horizontal doors and windows.
And go down the ladders on both sides,
You can see that the center of the well head is aligned, which is the wooden tabletop.
They stepped on the table before jumping off the table.
The ground and the walls were all covered with extremely solid and thick ice. Even after hundreds of thousands of years, the ice here has not melted.
Intense cold air, and even tiny pieces of ice that can fly in the air with the naked eye. Dove has been frozen into a ball and shrunk in the chocolate clothes... and Si An Mo couldn't help but shivered and stepped on the ground to keep warm, so that he could barely maintain his voice without trembling.
It was citalopram... She could clearly feel the chill, but her body showed no signs of trembling.
"They donated their bodies before they died to hold a ceremony. The name of the ceremony was 'Nine Faces of the Unburnt'. Nine supernatural beings of the same profession took the poison wrapped in honey pills, Perform a mysterious drama called 'Nine Festival' and die in the drama to force the interruption of the ritual.
"It's not that they need to rely on this ritual to achieve any purpose. It's to get a by-product of this ritual - in a self-sacrifice type ritual, the dead superhuman, their corpses will not turn into nightmares... but will Become an 'untransformed curse material'. All curses and their own souls are sealed in it.
"And after the ritual has absorbed their souls, all that remains is the curse-filled husk. Since this ritual is based on the nine Frostwhisperers, the overflowing and accumulating curse around it will Through the corpses of nine Frostwhisperers, transformed into pure chill."
Translated by citalopram.
Hearing this, Si An was a little confused: "They are spending a lot of time... What are they going to do?
"Just to make a refrigerator?"
"……seems like it."
Citalopram paused and replied in a low voice.
These two sentences are not translations, but her own thoughts: "The technology of the elves seems to be concentrated on the magic energy... At least the elves of the third era are like this.
"They can't get rid of the curse to make refrigerators. In fact, even we can't let the refrigerator keep cooling without any energy..."
"...Kelvin closed the coffin board with relief and lay back."
Dove complained on the forum: "The world is always unexpectedly scientific in such a strange place."
"Collect first."
Citalopram instructed: "The light blue liquid in this ice layer is the 'Frost Whisperer's Frozen Blood'. I don't know how much Annan wants... Let's get half a catty first."
"Half a catty is too much!"
The four secretly spit out.
"what can I do?"
Citalopram said helplessly: "We didn't bring a container? Who knew that 'Permafrost Blood' was actually liquid...
"It's better to cut off an arm and take it away after the ice is sealed. I saw that Annan had already arrived, so I quickly went out and handed it to him, and I don't have to worry about sending it back to wait."
"If it's for freezing, then you might as well cut the head off. At least the fault will be smaller..."
Dove complained on the forum.
"its not right?"
Si Anke suddenly realized something: "If the elves are trying to create an eternal refrigeration barrier... Then what are they planning to preserve?
"There was nothing on this table when we first came down."
"This Boffis said it."
Citalopram shook his head and explained, "It wasn't that there was nothing, but that it was taken away.
"It's really a well in a different sense - it's wide enough that even if you avoid the U-shaped handles on both sides, the rest is enough to lift something up. And Porphys also said Passing...the place where the holy skeleton was once stored, and the place where the 'Frostwhisper's Frozen Blood' was collected is on the way.
"I speculate that this should be the place where the elves originally planned to store the holy bones. This shows that the elves should have given up the idea of signing a holy contract with the holy bones at that time, or it may be impossible to sign a contract.
"From the timeline, this place should have been built some time before the elves held the grand ceremony... It can even be said that it may have been forcibly dug out by using the magic energy and opening the creative mode.
"At that time, the elves thought that the holy bones would always be kept here. They created this ceremony to suppress the activity of the holy bones as much as possible and prevent the curse from leaking out.
"Since medicinal wine can anesthetize the holy skeleton, there is no reason why low temperature cannot reduce its activity. Moreover, the medicine will always deteriorate at normal temperature. But if it is stored in a low temperature environment, the storage time will also increase somewhat."
Citalopram knows this very well.
Today, there are no bottles of holy bones stored here.
That is to say... After the ceremony here was completed, and after a while, Boffis' mother took away the holy skeleton stored here.
And the discovery of Annan's side can further confirm this speculation——
The bottle he picked up over there was the bottle left after the Heart of Justice was taken away.
And judging from the fact that it "has lost its efficacy"... I am afraid that the bottle will appear in that position, I am afraid that it is because the holy skeleton has been unable to control it after leaving the cold storage.
But these are details.
Annan and the children did not go down, but waited for them to come back at the only entrance and exit.
Either the hand or the head. When it was delivered to Annan, Annan did have a way to keep the ice on the surface from melting.
If you can't even do this kind of thing, then it's better not to advance.
The remaining parts that are not used up may be able to make some equipment and then sell them back to players... just to practice.
I'm finally getting better...
Annan took a deep breath a little nervously with the "Holy Bone Extract" wrapped in his coat.
Finally... do you want to settle with that painter?
