Lu Yuan frowned and looked at the one-eyed man.
"You need to report this matter first! Otherwise, our mission is already very difficult, and with this ice layer as an obstacle, it's impossible for us to complete the mission in ten days!"
The one-eyed man glanced at Lu Yuan: "This is outside my scope of work. I would like to help you explain the situation, but communication is currently cut off. Even if I tell them, they may not be able to receive it. They can only receive the completion or incomplete messages sent by me!"
Suddenly, Lu Yuan felt like he had been played, realizing how foolish his decision had been.
"Let's think of another way! This thickness of ice is obviously going to take us way too long!"
Lu Yuan's voice was deep. He hadn't expected things to get so serious. The engineering department staff obviously hadn't anticipated that things would be frozen here as well.
"Sigh! I'll give it a try! I have to go!"
After finishing his sentence, the one-eyed man turned and left without explaining anything to Lu Yuan and the others. He was just a gatekeeper here, and now that everyone had evacuated, he was only responsible for opening and closing the gate. Bringing Lu Yuan here had already completed half of his task.
"Damn it! You can't just abandon us like this!"
Lu Yuan's voice carried a hint of annoyance. But the other party didn't even turn his head.
Until the other person disappeared in front of the gate, Lu Yuan and the others didn't even know what to do next.
Han Wen tightened her hat, then took out an iron rod and rammed it into the ice. However, she was not strong enough and could not break the ice despite her efforts.
Lu Yuan arrived in front of him and then used the iron rod to exert force.
"Plop"
The iron rod pierced straight through the ice, and the further it went, the less force was needed.
Finally, the iron rod could be easily pierced through.
Han Wen took the stick, glanced at it, then measured it with his finger and did some calculations.
"The hardest ice layer is about half a meter thick. If we want to break through it, it will probably take at least a day with our numbers. Moreover, the thickness of the outer ice layer is constantly increasing, so we should act quickly!"
Lu Yuan sighed. At this point, this was all they could do. After all, they had nothing left and could only fight to the death. Otherwise, they would die here.
"Alright! Let's begin! There's a half-meter-thick layer of ice. Everyone, see if we can use shovels to break a hole as quickly as possible!"
So everyone started working together, but the ice seemed to have been frozen for too long, so there was no way to break it open quickly.
Some tools broke down after only a few uses.
Lu Yuan frowned and vented his anger by striking the thick ice layer repeatedly.
To Lu Yuan's surprise, the one-eyed man from before returned.
"You're from Group 103, right?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right!"
"Okay! I'll inform your team leader about the situation here. He's mainly responsible for your logistical support, so I'll notify him. As for whether he'll bring people with him, that depends on his discretion!"
Upon hearing the other party's words, Lu Yuan's heart sank. Gu Wenzhong's desire to kill them was deeply ingrained. Lu Yuan had no doubt that this guy would not only not provide him with support, but might even ridicule him severely.
However, the one-eyed man offered to help him report the matter, which warmed Lu Yuan's heart.
Thank you!
"You're welcome. I was just doing my job!"
Everyone was still busy, and the one-eyed man indeed brought Lu Yuan and the others' message to Group 103.
When Gu Wenzhong heard what the other party had to say, he was immediately delighted.
"Come on! Let's go see! I want to see how our suicide squad is doing now!"
After saying that, Gu Wenzhong waved his hand and led a group of people directly into the elevator.
When Gu Wenzhong saw Lu Yuan again, he made no attempt to hide his smile.
"Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan, I never thought you'd end up like this!"
Upon seeing the other party, Lu Yuan's heart sank. Sure enough, the other party had brought people to watch the spectacle.
Jiang Mingxuan's face was also full of mockery.
"Oh dear, the leader of Group Seven is indeed young and ambitious, actually trying to enter the fortress using this method. Tsk tsk tsk, too bad you've chosen the wrong place! Oh, I forgot to tell you, the ice here isn't just half a meter thick, it's said to have several layers! The outside temperature seems to rise a few degrees every now and then, and the ultraviolet radiation is very strong, so the ice looks like a mille-feuille. Even if you break through the first layer, there's a second layer, a third layer waiting for you! Haha!"
Gu Wenzhong and Jiang Mingxuan laughed arrogantly.
Lu Yuan clenched his fists, but did not make a move.
"Hehe, you can laugh all you want! Once you're done laughing, you can get out!"
"Even on the verge of death, he still can't say a few kind words! Haha! Really... He wanted to die but took so many people with him! It's really not worth it!"
Lu Yuan turned around directly, ignoring the other person, and focused on continuing his work.
Just as he was about to make another move, the ice in front of Zhou Tong and the others suddenly broke apart.
