After Leader Blue Flame said that, Chen Chu knew that he probably wouldn't be able to find the "Snow Disaster" by himself, but he still didn't give up and searched twice before returning to the headquarters.
The atmosphere in Guan Zeyang's office was very solemn. Just now, problems began to arise in Hai Province's living facilities. Cables and wires in some areas were frozen, cracked, and broken, resulting in large-scale power outages. Although power workers were already repairing them, the speed of repairs could not keep up with the speed of damage. This was just the beginning. A thin layer of ice even formed on the sea surface in Hai Province. If even the sea could freeze, what about the water pipes in the city? Once the water pipes were frozen and could not flow water, drinking water would become a problem. Citizens have not yet realized that once the first water pipe freezes, citizens will definitely go out to the supermarket to buy water, and then there will be chaos.
"We must find the 'snow disaster' as soon as possible." Guan Zeyang could not tolerate the panic. He looked directly at Lin Nan, "Lin Nan, go and find it."
Chen Chu was stunned when he heard this. After he came back, he reported his meeting with the Blue Flame leader and the fact that he had not found the "Snow Disaster" props, but he did not say that Lin Xi could find the props.
How did Director Guan know this? Did Lin Xi tell him herself?
Just as Lin was about to agree, Chen Chuxian rejected her request: "No."
"Why not?" Guan Zeyang looked at Chen Chu seriously.
"I think the leader of Blue Flame deliberately placed the 'Snow Disaster' in Hai Province for Lin Xi." Chen Chu said quickly, "Lin Xi is the key to opening the Heavenly Extreme Realm. The people of Blue Flame have always wanted to capture her. When we were in Chishui, we were besieged by Blue Flame once."
"We have also considered this, but besides letting Lin go, do you have any other way to find the 'snow disaster'?" Guan Zeyang asked.
Chen Chu certainly had no idea. If there was, he would have already found the snow disaster. "But the Blue Flame leader's goal is to completely activate the catastrophic items. This is just one of them. Once Lin Xi is taken away by him, the next one may be two or three."
How could Guan Zeyang not know what Chen Chu said? In fact, after Lin Xi said that the purpose of Lan Yan's trip might be aimed at her, he had already thought about all of this.
Guan Zeyang: "But if we leave it alone, Hai Province will be in complete chaos. Moreover, if Lan Yan's purpose is to find Lin Nan, then even if we don't let Lin Nan go this time, Lan Yan will not stop. You also said that this is just one of the disaster props. Are we going to let them continue to place disaster props in China?"
If Lan Yan really placed all the disaster props in China, he didn't know whether the earth would collapse, but China would definitely collapse. Therefore, disaster props could no longer appear in China.
Chen Chu understood what Director Guan meant. As long as Lin Xi was not in China, Blue Flame would not target China with the next disaster props. He knew that the Earth would become more dangerous after losing Lin Xi, but at this moment, he had to save China first. They still had time to deal with the rest.
Chen Chu felt extremely upset because he found that this matter was almost unsolvable. Lin Xi had to fall into this trap no matter what.
"I'll go." Lin Xi spoke, breaking the silence in the office. In fact, as early as when she guessed that Leader Lan Yan came for the system, she knew she couldn't hide.
Seeing that everyone in the office was looking at her, Lin Yan tried to be optimistic and said, "I am the key to opening the Heavenly Realm. Leader Blue Flame will not kill me."
"Yes, at least you are safe from this point of view." Guan Zeyang also said, "And I will let the Kunlun team protect you. The people from Blue Flame may not be able to take you away."
"Have you forgotten my prophecy just now?" Xiao Wen, who had not spoken since Chen Chu came back, suddenly spoke.
Guan Zeyang: “…” I’m mobilizing my subordinates, what’s the point of talking about prophecy at this time?
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mr. Hua coughed and expressed his concern: "In fact, there is still one thing that needs to be resolved. If this problem cannot be resolved, even if we find the 'snow disaster', it will not be of much significance."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this and looked at Mr. Hua.
"How to deal with the activated disaster props? Can they be smoothly sent into the subspace like a geography map?" Mr. Hua expressed his doubts.
Yes, the reason why the map was recycled before was because it was in an inactivated state at that time, but the current "snow disaster" has obviously been activated.
If we find the "snow disaster" but cannot seal it, what's the point of looking for it?
"That..." Just when everyone was upset because the "snowstorm" could not be sealed, Lin raised her hand slightly. She had just graduated, so she still had the habit of raising her hand when speaking in class.
After everyone looked over, she whispered, "I think it should be sealable."
"Do you have any solution?" Mr. Hua asked anxiously.
"No, it should have been sealed originally, just like 'Dryness'." Lin Xi reminded.
Same as “drought”?
It had only been one afternoon since Chen Chu submitted his "dry report" in the conference room, and Director Guan still remembered what he said at the meeting. After a moment's recollection, he understood what Lin Yan meant.
Guan Zeyang: "You mean, 'Snow Disaster' is the same as 'Drought'. There are seals left by the 28 constellations in the props."
Elder Hua also understood and continued, "Yes, Lan Yan's 'Snow Disaster' was also obtained from the sub-space. The spirit that sealed this item must have also set a seal on the item like the Lord of Red Water City to facilitate Earth's recycling."
Chen Chu glanced at Lin Yan with a complicated expression. Lin Yan took the initiative to bring up this matter that everyone else had ignored, which meant that she was really willing to go. Chen Chu didn't want Lin Yan to take risks, but he also respected her choice.
Finally, Director Guan decided to let Lin Yan go to Hai Province to look for the "snow disaster". He sent eight members of the Kunlun team to accompany her for protection. The leader of the team was the will-o'-the-wisp who was guarding outside his office.
"Will-o'-the-wisp, protect Lin Xi well. Even if you all die in battle, you must protect her well." Before leaving, Guan Zeyang said to the captain of the Kunlun team.
Will-O-Wisp did not question the need to protect an unknown person, but simply saluted Director Guan firmly: "I promise to complete the mission."
Lin Xi felt very stressed listening to the conversation between the two. She really wanted to say that it was not necessary, but because of the atmosphere, she did not dare to speak.
At this time, the space channel had been opened. In order to ensure that Chen Chu's combat effectiveness would not be affected, the official specially found another S-level psychic to build the space channel for shuttle.
"Let's go." Chen Chu had been standing beside Lin Nan. At this moment, he suddenly reached out and held Lin Nan's hand.
Lin Xi nodded and walked towards the space passage with Chen Chu.
Because there were more people to be transported this time and the distance was also longer, the length of the space channel was a bit long, about a hundred meters. A distance of a hundred meters was a bit long for a space channel, but it only took a few minutes to walk. Before stepping out of the space channel, Chen Chu suddenly held Lin's hand tightly.
Lin looked up in surprise, and heard Chen Chu's words as if to assure her: "I will protect you, don't be afraid."
The strong sense of security transmitted through the tightly clenched palms made Lin's heartbeat begin to get out of control.
Before Lin Yan could see the scene clearly, she felt the cold. It was even colder than the capital in December. You know, the capital had snowed several times since the beginning of winter. It was the coldest time in the capital, but compared with the coastal province at this time, the temperature difference was so obvious.
"It's colder than before." Chen Chu also felt the change in temperature. He had been here before, and just an hour ago. But with only an hour's time difference, the coastal province had become colder.
"It's at least minus 15 degrees Celsius." Feishuang said, "And the temperature is still dropping."
She is a frost-type mutant and was not seriously injured in Chishui, so she also came to the Hai Province mission this time.
"How bad will this 'snow disaster' get?" a member of the Kunlun team couldn't help but ask.
"Frozen." Lin Xi said.
"What?" Seeing that Lin Xi seemed to know, the members of the Kunlun team all looked over curiously.
Lin did not hide it either, and told everyone what she had learned from the system about the "snow disaster". The system told her: "'Snow disaster' is different from 'geographic map'. After the geography map forms an earthquake, it will enter a dormant period. During the dormant period, the geography map will absorb the energy it has gained from the disaster, and then expand its territory. Although the casualties caused by the 'snow disaster' are not as rapid as the 'geographic map', they are more massive. 'Snow disaster' will not actively hibernate, it will absorb energy while expanding its coverage area. In the area covered by the 'snow disaster', the ice and snow will not stop until everything is frozen."
"This is too exaggerated. Can it freeze the entire earth?" Someone didn't believe it. "I've never seen space covered with ice and snow before."
That's because the subspace we see may only be a very small part of the universe.
Lin Xi complained in her heart but did not speak out her guess.
"No matter what harm it does, the purpose of our trip is to seal it." Will-o'-the-wisp interrupted everyone's discussion, then looked at Lin, "Can you sense the 'snow disaster'?"
Lin called the system in her mind: "System."
Just with a call, Lin Xi felt a pain in her eyes. She closed her eyes subconsciously, and when she opened them again, she saw a beam of light between heaven and earth.
"There." Lin Xi raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the light column.
Everyone looked up, but saw nothing. Chen Chu quickly determined the direction: "That's the bay."
Is the “snow disaster” in the sea?
With a clear direction, everyone headed for the bay. Chen Chu took Lin Xi and flew straight. The members of the Kunlun team all had flying props, so they flew straight through the sky. Ten minutes later, everyone arrived at the Sea King, and they didn't encounter any danger along the way.
Chen Chu looked at the beach that had completely turned into snow and asked, "Where is it?"
"There." Lin pointed to a protrusion in the snow. Although the protrusion was covered with ice and snow, the outline of a castle could be vaguely seen. There, it should be a sand castle built by a child.
Did the Blue Flame leader just casually throw the catastrophic props on the beach?
The progress was too smooth, and Chen Chu always felt uneasy.
"Feishhuang, come with me and take a look." Guihuo said to Chen Chu who was looking over, "Protect Lin Nan, we will go check it out first."
Chen Chu thought about it for a moment and felt that this was indeed the safest way, so he nodded and said, "Be careful."
Will-O'-the-Wisp led Flying Frost towards the sand castle. The two were on high alert, but nothing happened until they got closer. Finally, Will-O'-the-Wisp crouched down and used his weapon to dig open the sand castle. But the moment he reached out to touch the sand castle, an extremely cold force came through and instantly froze him into an ice sculpture.
"Don't..." Seeing Feishuang trying to reach out and touch him, Guihuo tried desperately to stop her, but before he could say one word, his body was completely frozen.
Feishuang, who tried to save the will-o'-the-wisp, was also turned into an ice sculpture the moment his hand touched the will-o'-the-wisp's arm.
"Captain, Feishuang!" The members of the Kunlun team screamed in surprise. Two of them even wanted to run over, but were knocked to the ground by Chen Chu's gust of wind.
"Oh no, it's a frost cage, run away." In Lin Xi's mind, the system suddenly warned, and the tone was more urgent than ever before.
"Hurry up!" Lin Nan didn't bother to ask what the Frost Cage was, and hurriedly reminded Chen Chu.
Chen Chu also reacted quickly, holding Lin Xi's waist with one hand, and was about to fly away. But at the moment he flew up, the ice and snow in the world seemed to come alive. The snowflakes on the ground and the snowflakes in the sky were connected together, and each snowflake seemed to be connected by an invisible line, which instantly blocked the world. Then those lines became tighter and tighter, and finally formed a snowball without a single gap, trapping everyone inside. At the same time, the power of extreme cold surged, and in just a few breaths, except for Chen Chu and Lin Xi, who was protected by him, everyone else turned into ice sculptures.
Chen Chu stared at the huge snowball in shock. It was such a powerful supernatural item, but he didn't notice anything unusual about it.
When Lin turned around, she accidentally touched the ice chair behind her, and a familiar system introduction appeared in front of her.
【Name: Frost Prison.】
[Guide to use: A certain icy warrior has a crush on a powerful astrologer, but he cannot get her. He spent three hundred years creating a frost cage that can block the secrets of heaven, trying to imprison the astrologer first and then fall in love with him. This item can be placed in the wind and snow to block the secrets of heaven, and no one can detect it.]
[Hint: The frost cage can only be broken by the tears of the astrologer. A certain icy warrior once said that he could not bear to see you sad, so he had to let you go. It was really touching.]
"Fuck you, this is the prop you gave to the Blue Flame leader." Lin Yan almost went crazy, "You gave the prop, and you didn't find it in advance."
"This is a tool that can block the secrets of heaven." The system explained.
"You still think you're right!" Lin Nan scolded.
The system was as quiet as a chicken and dared not to refute.
The author has something to say:
Lin Yan: You gave such good props to a scumbag, but he is still trying to steal my door.
System: The goods were relatively sufficient at that time.
Lin: You are right.
