Upon spotting the person, Lu Yuan quickly untied the rope around his waist and rushed towards the other person.
Five people were huddled in a corner of the ice cave, shivering. Two of them had even collapsed to the ground, motionless. Their faces and heads were covered with frost.
“Lu Yuan…you’re here…save…save…” Han Wen said, pointing to a teammate who had already fainted beside him.
Lu Yuan quickly grabbed Han Wen's hand: "Sister Han, don't move, I'm getting angry first!"
As he spoke, Lu Yuan immediately took off the backpack behind him, reached into it, and with a thought, took out a bag of solid alcohol blocks from his dimensional space.
Taking out a lighter, Lu Yuan gently lit the alcohol block. The alcohol block ignited immediately upon contact with an open flame. To raise the surrounding temperature, Lu Yuan deliberately lit all the alcohol blocks, and a bunch of small flames immediately rose up.
Then Lu Yuan gently moved the two teammates, who had already lost consciousness from the cold, to the side of the fire. He reached out and touched their necks; their pulses were very weak. Their clothes were very thin, seemingly soaked by seawater, and frozen solid by the low temperature, offering no warmth whatsoever.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan decided to go all the way and took off both of their clothes, then took off his own clothes and put them on the two of them.
The alcohol block didn't provide much heat, so Lu Yuan took out another bottle of strong liquor and gave each of them a swig. Instantly, the liquor rushed down their throats like a lit torch, and their expressions improved slightly.
With a sigh, Lu Yuan then removed the clothes from the other five people. They were all in a semi-conscious state and had no idea what Lu Yuan was doing.
Without any hesitation, Lu Yuan took out more alcohol blocks from the dimensional space and put them into it.
Just then, Xiwen's voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Lu Yuan, how is it? Are they inside?"
"I'm here! They're not in very good condition. I'll give them some quick treatment now. You keep a close eye on them upstairs. I'll call you when I'm done!"
"Okay! Lu Yuan, thank you!"
Lu Yuan gave a wry smile: "Alright, there's no need for thanks at a time like this! Besides, you suffered this disaster while protecting me, so I have an obligation to save them!"
After hanging up the call, Lu Yuan rearranged the positions of the group, trying to ensure that everyone could be exposed to the heat.
Apart from Han Wen, everyone in their group was a man. When taking off his clothes, Lu Yuan didn't feel any psychological burden. After all, they were all going to die, so they certainly wouldn't think too much at this point.
However, when Lu Yuan was about to take off Han Wen's clothes, he hesitated slightly. Han Wen's condition was not bad, and Lu Yuan wondered if he should let Han Wen warm himself by the fire to recover.
At this moment, Han Wen suddenly opened his eyes, his lips twitching slightly, and Lu Yuan quickly moved closer.
"Sister Han, what did you say?"
With a hint of shyness on his face, Han Wen said, "Help me... take off my clothes!"
Lu Yuan glanced at the other person and saw a blush on Han Wen's face. Although he had heard a lot of rumors about Han Wen when he was in District 5, many people thought that Han Wen was a promiscuous woman, and many even fantasized about her. After all, how could a single woman with such a seductive appearance not make other men's hearts flutter?
However, after spending some time with her, Lu Yuan realized that Han Wen's appearance was just a disguise. In fact, Han Wen was not a promiscuous woman at all; on the contrary, she was a somewhat introverted person. However, she worked in intelligence, and in order to better obtain intelligence, she had to make herself look like this.
So he nodded to Lu Yuan and then slowly began to take off the other person's clothes.
Finally, Han Wen's body was exposed to Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan felt a little embarrassed. Although she was a mother, he had to admit that she still maintained a great figure. Lu Yuan didn't look at her for long and found a blanket to drape over Han Wen.
After a long time, the five of them gradually regained some consciousness. Han Wen was probably in the best condition and was the first to wake up.
Lu Yuan quickly handed her a cup of brown sugar water that had been boiling on the campfire: "Sister Han, drink some brown sugar ginger tea to warm yourself up! We should leave once they wake up!"
Han Wen looked at Lu Yuan gratefully, then took the tea and held it in his hands: "Thank you! If it weren't for you, we might really be dead!"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's all what I should do! If it weren't for you all, I don't know when my trip home would have even begun!"
As time went on, Lu Yuan added alcohol blocks several more times. Fortunately, the alcohol blocks burned for a relatively long time, and the others didn't ask any questions. After all, they had been given a second chance at life and were filled with gratitude towards Lu Yuan, so they didn't care about such trivial matters.
After resting for half an hour, Lu Yuan turned on the walkie-talkie: "Xiwen, we're ready! Now help pull the person up!"
"Great! Once you've tied them up, give the rope a tug, and I'll pull you all up right away!"
After some effort, the group finally left this awful place.
Back on their cargo ship, frost once again formed on the deck.
The group returned to the cabin and sat around the stove, their faces beaming with the joy of surviving a disaster, their gratitude towards Lu Yuan overflowing.
