Chapter 222 Strange Things
The butterfly's appearance was so beautiful that the people around it who were on guard soon relaxed their vigilance.
Among them, one team member even stretched out his hand, wanting the butterfly that was flying closer and closer to stand on his hand so that he could observe it carefully.
But who would have thought that the butterfly did stand on it, but the team member was instantly frozen into an ice cube because he touched the butterfly.
It could instantly freeze a grown man into an ice cube. This freezing ability was even more powerful than Ling Jiang's supernatural power. Such a dangerous creature immediately shocked everyone. Brother Zhang even shouted, "Don't touch the butterfly! Don't touch it!"
But Brother Zhang's shouting was too late. Several team members had already stretched out their hands before Brother Zhang could stop them. As they looked at Brother Zhang, the butterflies naturally fell into their hands.
Then, those team members were also frozen into ice cubes at the same time.
Seeing his teammates frozen like this, not only Brother Zhang, but also the teammates realized the problem. Everyone held the wooden guns in their hands tightly, and after Brother Zhang gave the order, they immediately attacked the butterfly.
However, don't be fooled by the large size of these butterflies and the clumsy way they flew just now. In fact, not only do they fly lightly and dodge arrows, but their movements are also very agile.
Perhaps this movement touched the dangerous nerves of the butterflies. As the group of butterflies flew higher and higher, under the illumination of strong lights, it seemed that a lot of powder was slowly falling in the air. Looking at the source of the powder, wow, it was the group of culprit butterflies.
Lao Gao was immediately shocked. "Why is there powder on this butterfly? What kind of powder is this? Will it be harmful if I breathe it in? It's flying so high, I'm afraid we might all get it on us."
Brother Zhang immediately said, "Spread out and stay away from the fans."
But it was definitely impossible to inhale it. After having the mutant chicken for supper, they were already fully dressed. Not only were their bodies wrapped tightly, but their faces and eyes were exactly the same. The only thing exposed was the hands that were about to hold Mu Cang. So even if there was a problem, the hands would be the first to react. But it had been half an hour, and there was no reaction.
Just when everyone thought that this powder was just ordinary powder.
Yes, they were happy too early.
Because the pair of hands exposed gradually lost consciousness, at first they thought it was because it was too cold and they were frozen. But when they were about to move, they found that their fingers could no longer be frozen. Then, a layer of frost gradually formed on their hands, and after the frost, ice cubes formed. After everyone's hands were frozen into ice cubes, everyone panicked.
How can I use a wooden gun to hit a butterfly if I can’t move my hands?
And now everyone has realized another problem. If you touch the butterfly, you will instantly freeze into ice, but if you touch the powder, you will slowly freeze into ice. In other words, whether you touch it or not, everyone will be frozen into ice. In this situation, how can they protect themselves from attacks?
When everyone was afraid of this newly born butterfly, Lan Jin thought of another problem. No matter how it was frozen, it was impossible for it to be frozen from the inside out. So, if the ice melted, could the hand and the person recover?
Especially people, although their whole bodies are frozen into ice, in this extremely cold weather, everyone is wearing such thick clothes. As long as they are not frozen from the inside out, they can hold on for a while.
As soon as this idea came into her mind, she immediately wanted to try it out.
Lan Jin glanced at the butterflies in the sky and said to Brother Zhang, "Brother Zhang, come here for a moment. Be careful and don't get discovered."
Brother Zhang knew that Lan Jin was smart and must have come up with some idea. He looked at the butterflies circling above and slowly moved towards them. It must be said that because Lan Jin was so scared that she was far away from them, the hands of the four of them were not frozen by the powder.
After Brother Zhang came over, before he could ask, Lan Jin said to Lao Gao, "Try to use your supernatural power to melt the ice on Brother Zhang's hand. If his hand is still there, those people who were frozen just now may still be alive as long as the ice is melted. After all, it's so cold, everyone is wearing warm clothes."
Brother Zhang knew that Lan Jin must have thought of something, but he didn't expect her to be able to analyze it at this time. He extended his hand to Lao Gao and immediately said, "Yes, give it a try. If it can't be saved, then I'll just have my hands. But if it can be saved, then there's still hope for this person to survive."
Lao Gao looked serious and raised his hand to use his supernatural power. Lan Jin reminded him, "Use a small fire. Ice will crack instantly when it meets a large fire or high temperature. If your hands are completely frozen, they will probably crack. Use a small fire to slowly melt them. This will prevent you from losing your fingers before you can use them."
Lan Jin knew that Brother Zhang was anxious, but some things couldn't be rushed. She said, "Brother Zhang, don't argue with me about this. Some things can't be rushed."
Although Zhang Ge was anxious, he also listened to the advice and said, "Okay, let's do it quickly."
Afterwards, Lao Gao used his fire ability and the smallest fire to slowly melt the ice on Brother Zhang's hand while preventing the butterflies above his head from noticing.
Everyone knew the principle of melting ice over a low fire. Huang Jinghe stepped forward and asked quietly, "Sister Lan, shouldn't we use warm water to melt the ice? Wouldn't that be more effective?"
"Where can I get warm water? Are you two going to boil it now?" Using a low fire would be fine, as it would also increase the speed a bit. "But those ice men still need to be melted with warm water later. Otherwise, not only will their powers not last this long, but they won't be able to hold on for that long either."
The noise they made here was very small, so small that even after the ice on Brother Zhang's hands melted, he didn't even notice the butterfly on his head.
Brother Zhang's hands emerged from the ice, and his fingers were intact, but perhaps because they had been frozen for too long, he had no feeling at first. But when his fingers were warmed by Lao Gao for a while, they gradually regained their movement.
This also means that there is nothing wrong with Lan Jin's idea. Not only can his hands be saved, but the hands of his team members can also be saved, and those team members who have been frozen into ice men can also be saved.
When Brother Zhang thought of this, he immediately became excited. In fact, if he wanted to melt the ice, it didn't necessarily have to be done by Lao Gao alone. Wasn't there someone with fire abilities in their team?
Following Brother Zhang's gaze, everyone's attention was focused on Su Qinghe, who was not far behind Lan Jin and his group.
Su Qinghe, who had been hiding at the back, was really confused when being looked at by this group of people.
But it's really strange. Just now, wave after wave of mutant animals attacked, and people with and without superpowers rushed to the front to protect themselves and their teammates' lives. But Su Qinghe was the only one who had superpowers, but he kept hiding at the back, even farther away than Lan Jin and his group who were afraid of insects. Isn't this a very strange thing?
