Chapter 157: Ice Wall Blocking the Road
“You know shit!” Chu Xichi yelled at Jin Hang from Ling Yao’s back, “My brother’s stamina isn’t as good as that of an average person because…”
Before she finished her words, there was a sudden cry of an eagle in the sky, passing over everyone's head like a cloud.
At the same time, the cold wind swept over them, almost blowing them down in the snow.
"What was that thing flying over there?" Ling Yao and Chu Xichi looked up at the sky in the same manner.
"Ice-edged Nine-winged Eagle." Chu Xihen frowned slightly as he watched the giant ice sculpture-like eagle flying away.
Xie Ling looked at Chu Xihen, "The water-attributed alien being guarded by Base 115?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several people ran over from a distance.
"Cui Qi!" Among the people who came was someone Jin Hang knew, so he called out.
Those people were in a hurry and originally wanted to run past them, but they braked hastily when they heard Jin Hang's voice.
"Instructor Jin?!" Cui Qi was a young man with dark skin and wearing camouflage uniform, an obvious military outfit. When he saw Jin Hang, he was startled at first, then stood still respectfully and saluted.
Jin Hang also replied, "Are you the captain of Base 115? Are you chasing the giant ice eagle that just flew over?"
"Yes, instructor. That's the Ice-Edged Nine-Winged Eagle guarding our base. It became restless as soon as it snowed last night, and used its supernatural powers to freeze our entire base. We spent the entire night fighting it, and at dawn it flew towards this side, and we chased it all the way!" As soon as Cui Qi stopped talking, sweat started to break out on his forehead, and his whole body was steaming.
Chu Xihen felt a little jealous when he saw this.
"It had been well behaved until last night, had it?" Xie Ling asked Cui Qi.
Jin Hang immediately introduced Cui Qi: "This is Dr. Xie Ling."
When Cui Qi heard the name, he was immediately in awe, saluted towards Xie Ling, and then said: "Yes, it never attacked people before, and stayed quietly. Who knew that it would get excited when it started snowing. Fortunately, it didn't attack people while flying, otherwise..."
Cui Qi didn't say anything else, everyone understood.
As we were talking, another eagle cry came from the front, but compared to the previous one, it seemed less powerful and even sounded a bit like a scream?
"What's going on? Did the Ice-Edged Nine-Winged Eagle encounter a natural enemy?" Cui Qi said goodbye to Jin Hang in a hurry: "Instructor, let's go and take a look first..."
"Ahhh!" Tracy had only said half of his words when one of his teammates was sucked away by a huge force, sliding backwards rapidly in the snow.
Chu Xihen and others felt that this scene looked familiar.
"The big banyan tree sucked Mu Yue away in the same way before!" Gu Xingxie reminded.
While he was speaking, Lou Su had already rushed out and grabbed the psychic, but the force that sucked the psychic was too great, and he was also dragged along, and his speed did not slow down.
Seeing this, Xie Ling and Jin Hang's teammate Lin Chuan threw vines towards Lou Su at the same time. Both of them had wood-attributed superpowers, and summoning vines at will was a basic operation of their superpowers.
Lou Su grabbed the vines and pulled Xie Ling and Lin Chen out of the crowd.
Chu Xihen grabbed Xie Ling's wrist, Gu Xingxie grabbed Chu Xihen, and then Ling Yao.
On another vine, Jin Hang also grabbed Lin Chen, Yue Rujing grabbed Jin Hang, and behind them were the people from Base 115.
There were bunches of people hanging from both vines, just like the gourds they produced.
Seeing that so many people couldn't hold back one person, Chu Xihen's heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells.
The sound of wind and snow was whistling in their ears. It was difficult for the people being dragged along so quickly to talk to each other, but Chu Xihen still asked Cui Qi loudly, "What kind of supernatural power does your teammate have?"
"Water attribute!" replied Treacher.
Water attribute? The Ice Nine-winged Eagle also has water attribute!
Chu Xihen was just thinking about it when Xie Ling asked, "Did the Ice-Edged Nine-Winged Eagle really fly over there by itself?"
No one knows the answer to this question, not even the Ice Nine-Winged Eagle is clear whether it is dead or alive.
The most important thing is that with so many of them pulling one person, not only did the speed not slow down, but it became faster and faster, and the soles of their shoes were almost worn out!
"Lingyao, turn into a white tiger and hold us back!" Chu Xihen said to Lingyao.
After Lingyao transforms into a white tiger, his body becomes huge and his strength is great, so he might be able to stop everyone from sliding.
Not only did he transform himself into a white tiger, but before transforming he also used his special skill [God's Summons] to call out another white tiger. The two huge white tigers grabbed everyone, but only reduced their speed to the original speed and could not stop them.
The speed slowed down for less than ten seconds, and then accelerated again.
Chu Xihen saw from afar a wall of ice rising from the ground in front of him. The ice wall went straight into the sky, and there were dense particles of ice and snow flying around it.
"Lou Su, let him go!" Chu Xihen shouted forward.
Everyone was a little surprised to hear his words, but they really couldn't think of a better way.
"There's an ice wall ahead. Xiao Zheng will be blocked. He should be fine, captain!" said Cui Qi's teammate.
Lou Su in front heard what Chu Xihen said and knew what the consequences would be if he let go of the psychic, but he had no choice now. There were so many people behind him, and he couldn't drag them to death together.
"Thank you, brother, please let me go!" They had never met before, but when he was in danger, Lou Su rushed up to save him without hesitation. This kindness was enough for him to die without regrets. No matter what danger he would encounter next, it was his fate. He was a soldier and his duty was to protect the masses, not to implicate others.
He said this with a smile and took the initiative to pull Lou Su's hand away.
Without Lou Su and the people behind him dragging him, Xiao Zheng was sucked up by the invisible force like a piece of paper and flew quickly towards the ice wall. Before his body touched the ice wall, it instantly turned into a pile of white powder and merged into the snowflake particles on the edge of the ice wall.
"Xiao Zheng!" Cui Qi and his teammates shouted, raised their legs and rushed towards the ice wall.
Lou Su let go of Xiao Zheng, and their entire dragging team stopped at once. Cui Qi and his team were at the very end, and when they saw their teammates being killed, they couldn't help but run forward to check.
"Don't go any further!" Lou Su saw Cui Qi and his companions trying to run past him, so he reached out to stop them.
Cui Qi and his friends saw with their own eyes how Xiao Zheng was turned into powder by an invisible force, so they knew it was very dangerous to go forward. But how could they accept calmly when their teammate just disappeared in front of them?
Although several people did not continue to move forward, they all knelt down in the snow.
Lou Su threw a wind blade towards the ice wall, but it only flew one meter away from them before melting into the wind and snow particles, leaving no trace.
He turned back to Chu Xihen with a serious expression and asked him in a low voice: "You also have water-attributed abilities, so you are not affected by the ice wall?"
People who were far away didn't hear it, but Xie Ling next to him heard it.
He looked at Chu Xihen in surprise. Even if Chu Xihen was a full-level psychic, as long as he had water-attributed psychics, he should be affected by this ice wall, right?
After all, even large alien species like the Ice-Edged Nine-Winged Eagle were dealt with cleanly by this wall.
"It's okay. As long as I don't use it, no one can tell what kind of supernatural power I have." Chu Xihen still has this confidence.
