Finding rules to break the wall, shadows emerge
Lin Yu, like a statue, stared intently at the shimmering runes on the ice wall, his eyes wide as if they were about to burst. His gaze was so intense that it seemed to sear every flickering moment into his soul. The runes flickered with astonishing speed, like a meteor streaking across the summer night sky, or the relentless pulse of a high-speed precision instrument. It was impossible to catch them, let alone grasp their patterns. His mind was like an overloaded supercomputer, frantically analyzing everything it saw, trying to piece together a single clue from the seemingly chaotic, chaotic flickering. The team members gathered tightly around him, each breathless, their faces etched with anxiety and concentration, like a group of travelers groping in the dark, desperately hoping to find a glimmer of light.
"These runes may flash without apparent pattern, but everything has its own inherent logic. Everyone, calm down and think carefully. Do you notice anything special?" Lin Yu's voice, slightly tired but firm and powerful, echoed through the snowy valley. He was burning with anxiety, knowing that time was of the essence. The ice wall could launch another deadly attack at any moment, and they were like fish on a chopping block, powerless to fight back. They had to race against time to find a way to break through it.
One team member frowned, staring intently at the ice wall, as if trying to see through it. After a moment, he suddenly said, "Captain, I feel like the runes' flashing frequency is gradually slowing down, and each time it slows down, a specific set of runes lights up. Look, those are the ones shaped a bit like twisted branches." Lin Yu's heart suddenly moved, and he looked in the direction the team member pointed, and sure enough, he spotted this subtle but potentially crucial change. "You're right, this could be the key clue we've been searching for. Everyone, pay close attention and keep a close eye on that set of runes to see what other changes they might show." A hint of excitement lingered in Lin Yu's voice, as if he had glimpsed a faint ray of light in the darkness of the abyss.
As time ticked by, they gradually discovered that after a specific set of runes illuminated, several others would flash in a specific order. Lin Yu concentrated intently, quickly constructing a mental model of the rune flashing sequence, like a top cryptographer cracking an ancient and mysterious code. "I think I'm starting to get a clue. This is likely a pattern based on cycles and specific sequences. If we can fully grasp this pattern, perhaps we can find a way to break through the ice wall," Lin Yu said excitedly, his eyes gleaming with hope that seemed to dispel the surrounding cold and fear.
However, just as they were about to uncover the mysterious pattern and grasp the dawn of victory, the ice wall suddenly and without warning trembled violently, like the furious roar of an enraged ancient beast. The already flickering runes lost their rhythm, becoming even more chaotic and disordered. "Oh no! It might have sensed we were trying to decipher it, so it's deliberately disrupting the pattern," Lin Yu said anxiously, his heart sinking. The team members' faces instantly turned pale as paper. Their burgeoning hopes were instantly shattered, and their hearts were enveloped by the shadow of despair.
"Is there really nothing we can do? Are we going to be trapped here to die?" a team member said dejectedly, his voice filled with despair and helplessness, his eyes becoming empty and lifeless, as if he had lost faith in survival. Lin Yu gritted his teeth, his facial muscles twitching slightly from the effort, and said, "No, absolutely not! There must be a way. Don't be discouraged, let's observe again and look for patterns in the new flashing patterns. We've gone through so many hardships and dangers, we can't fail here!" Although Lin Yu's heart was also filled with worry and anxiety, he knew that as the team leader, he must be like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, conveying confidence and strength to the team members and must not give up easily.
At this moment, a sudden and unpredictable gust of wind blew up in the valley, sweeping across with a roar as if to level the entire valley. Snow and wind whirled through the air like countless white blades, slicing painfully at people's faces. Vision instantly became extremely blurry, almost pitch-black. Lin Yu thought to himself, "Oh no!" In such a harsh environment, observing the runes was practically impossible. But he showed no sign of retreating. Instead, he shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! Stay calm, focus all your attention, and use the breaks in the wind and snow to observe the runes! We'll definitely find a way!"
The team members struggled to open their eyes against the raging wind, the snow stinging their faces like knives, but they gritted their teeth, striving to capture the moment the runes flickered. Lin Yu, with his unwavering perseverance and exceptional observation, stared intently at the ice wall, daring not to blink, despite the harsh, wind-swept environment. Suddenly, he noticed a strange phenomenon: although the runes' flashing rhythm had been completely disrupted, each time the wind howled past, the flashing paused briefly. In that moment of pause, a rune hidden in a corner of the ice wall would emit an extremely faint glow, completely undetectable without careful observation.
"Everyone, pay attention! Every time the wind blows, the rune in that corner glows. This could be the opening to a new breakthrough!" Lin Yu shouted, his voice faint in the gusts, yet resolute and powerful. The team members struggled to look in the direction he pointed, and indeed, amidst the gaps in the snow and wind, they spotted the faint glow. They immediately perked up and began to focus on the subtle relationship between this rune and the other runes.
