Chapter 636 Eavesdropping, Disguise
The reason for the early start of the Ice Age...
Lu Xingchen thought for a moment, then kicked Bing Gulu, who was standing on a stool, craning his neck to watch a few people play mahjong: "Hey, come here, I have a few questions for you."
Bing Gulu reluctantly jumped off the stool.
Lu Xingchen: "Why is the Icefield Season starting early?"
Ice Gulu's eyes widened: "My lord, how would I know? Not only do I not know, but even our priests don't know!"
Gao Dafu, while fiddling with the mahjong tiles, turned around and said, "Xiao Lu, this is a district-wide mission, it's not that simple."
Lu Xingchen asked again: "Then why did you come here?"
Bing Guru: "As soon as the ice season comes, we come out. It has been like this for many years. Maybe... because we are afraid of the heat?"
Lu Xingchen's eyes darted around: "Where do you usually live?"
Bing Gulu thought hard and said, "We live in an ice cave. When the ice season comes, we start to follow the priests and then stop to hunt when we reach a place with abundant prey."
Lu Xingchen: "Where is the ice cave?"
Ice Gulu was stumped: "An ice cave is just an ice cave. We kept going this way and that way, and that's how we got here."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Lu Xingchen stopped asking questions.
This guy is just a nobody; he doesn't seem to know much.
The snowstorm lasted for eight hours, finally stopping around midnight.
By this time, everyone had already fallen asleep.
Early the next morning, Lu Xingchen entered the Peach Blossom Land: [Today, the Peach Blossom Land is blessed with good fortune—great luck is upon you!]
Lu Xingchen was lucky today; as soon as he opened the door, sunlight streamed in.
Today is a beautiful sunny day!
Grandma and Gao Dafu and a few others were cooking on the raft.
The cold wave has passed, the temperature has risen a lot, and everyone is standing outside.
The players in the chat channel, having survived the ordeal, were excitedly discussing how to go out and kill the alien beasts.
Even if I can't kill the ice cave polar bear, I can at least kill a snow rabbit, right?
Lu Xingchen was still worried about the Ice Cave people coming, so she ate a few bites of breakfast and went to the Ice Cave people's residence.
From a distance, she saw a row of Ice Cave people standing upright, listening to the Ice Cave Priest's lecture.
There were too many people and Lu Xingchen couldn't get through. After thinking about it, she dug a hole in the ice, put on a breathing mask and a white bear diving suit, jumped into the water, and swam all the way to the people in the ice cave.
Because the ice layer was too thick, we still couldn't hear the sounds from above.
Lu Xingchen started chiseling ice again.
A small dark blue fish swam over. It was the fish with extremely strong hearing that Lu Xingchen had rescued before.
As Lu Xingchen chipped away at the ice, he asked, "What have you heard lately?"
Deep Blue Fish: "The Ice Cave Priest is giving a speech, saying that everyone should rest and recuperate first, and take care of the injured polar bear. He has already called people over, and they will arrive the day after tomorrow. Then they will attack you."
Lu Xingchen: "Did they say how many people they called?"
Deep Blue Fish: "No!"
Lu Xingchen pondered for a moment. It was alright; at least it gave her some breathing room.
We can only deal with whatever comes our way!
Having finally come all this way, Lu Xingchen planned to gather as much information as possible.
The deep blue fish could understand the old priest's words, but not the ice cave people's words, so Lu Xingchen decided to go up and listen to them himself.
After the hole in the ice was dug, she quietly jumped out.
She chose the back of the igloo, so no one noticed.
She was standing behind the ice house and just happened to hear the Ice Cave Priest speaking.
Ice Cave Priest: "Ahem, Jiligulu, next time, we will attack together, ahem, we can't let that person go, okay, disperse!"
Lu Xingchen: ...
She just arrived, and the meeting is already over?
Fortunately, she now prefers to hear the people from the ice cave speak.
The Ice Cave Priest coughed and crawled back into the ice house. The people of the Ice Cave dispersed; some went to catch fish, some chiseled ice holes, and some fed the polar bears. Lu Xingchen huddled behind the ice house and stacked the ice holes he had chiseled behind him, forming an ice mound that they couldn't see for a while.
The people in the ice cave were working and chatting at the same time. Lu Xingchen listened carefully:
"Ice Twenty-Six isn't planning to come back?"
"If you don't want to come back, then don't come back. It would be better if you died outside!"
"Sigh, the priest values him highly. It's so strange, how could someone as dull as him suddenly become talkative?"
Lu Xingchen listened for a long time. Some people were chatting, and some were talking about Bing Twenty-Six. There was not much useful information.
That won't work.
These people have been talking for ages, and it's all just nonsense!
Frustrated, Lu Xingchen jumped into the water, swam to a distance, broke through the ice, and then jumped out again.
This can't go on forever.
She was more interested in knowing why the ice age had started earlier than expected.
Those people always miss the point because no one guides them. If Bing Gulu were here, things would be much better.
Unfortunately, Bing Guru cannot be fully used by her now, and she doesn't want to let him come back for nothing.
Oh right, doesn't she have a targeted disguise card? She can disguise herself as Ice Gulu!
Anyway, Ice Gulu can speak human language now, and she can understand the language of the Ice Cave people. If we are careful, there shouldn't be any problems!
Lu Xingchen immediately took out the targeted disguise card.
[Targeted Disguise Card: After use, you can disguise yourself as a specified person, including body shape, voice, etc. Use limit: 1; Duration of each use: 1-24 hours (unpredictable). Use now?]
Lu Xingchen hesitated for a moment.
The targeted disguise card is a valuable and precious item. I wonder if it would be a waste to use it now...
After hesitating for only a few seconds, Lu Xingchen made a decision - use it!
What's there to regret?
The ice cave people are now not far from her raft, constantly attacking. Every time she kills one, two more appear, and every two she kills, a whole group comes, endlessly.
She lives in danger every day. In this situation, why should she worry about this card or that card?
use!
I used it today, and maybe I'll have it again tomorrow!
Lu Xingchen: “Yes!”
[Please enter the player or NPC you wish to disguise yourself as...]
Lu Xingchen: "Ice Twenty-Six!"
[Disguise successful!]
Lu Xingchen felt his body sink and his gaze moved downwards.
She stretched out her hands and saw two big, thick hands with thick, short, rough fingers, and hand guards.
Short and stocky.
Lu Xingchen took out a small mirror, looked at himself, and confirmed that it was indeed Bing Gulu's appearance.
Exactly!
This is to make up for the chapter I missed yesterday, mwah~~~
