Chapter 45: Melting Glaciers
As someone who has already explored the outside world, Wu Linglong was quite confident when speaking in front of Wu Yanyan.
Anyway, Wu Yanyan is just a girl who stays in the dormitory and has never seen the world. Wu Linglong can say whatever she wants about what the outside world is like.
After extinguishing Wu Yanyan's last rage, Wu Linglong changed into her cute Lazy Sheep pajamas, covered her head and fell asleep.
As for Ling Ran, she was too lazy to explain. After looking up the information about the White Ape King on the Internet with her mobile phone, she lay on the bed thinking.
In the next few days, it was still just Ling Ran and Wu Linglong. The two of them had no burden at all and felt relaxed. Although Wu Linglong urged Ling Ran several times to take her in to take a look, Ling Ran refused every time.
After all, she didn't know what kind of existence was in that frozen area. If anything happened, she and Wu Linglong would be helpless with their strength.
"Xiao Ran, do you feel something is wrong today?"
Wu Linglong continued to wander around the explored area, looking around vigilantly. She always felt like a pair of eyes were looking at her, which made her feel very uncomfortable and frightening.
"Are we too idle these days?"
Ling Ran teased, but secretly released his Ice Art Qi. Unfortunately, it did not produce any result.
"That should be it."
Seeing that Ling Ran didn't feel it, Wu Linglong shook her head, thinking that she was worrying too much.
“Run away!”
"The ice is melting!"
Suddenly, screams and chaotic running sounds were heard not far away.
The two looked up and were shocked.
The black ice that had existed for thousands of years was actually melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, with large and small chunks of ice breaking away from the main body and sliding down.
"Bang!"
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The ice cubes that fell one after another covered the area, and the deafening sound made it seem like the end of the world had come.
Ling Ran and Wu Linglong were of course also running, and they were running for their lives.
"What's going on!"
"how so?"
Ling Ran's face was filled with more confusion as he asked himself questions over and over again in his mind.
Although the latest federal news is still reminding federal citizens that the temperature will gradually warm up, this should not happen outside the circle!
This extremely cold place outside the circle actually caused the collapse of black ice?
Even some of the flying ice chips have fallen in front of Ling Ran and the others, and the melted area is still continuing to expand. If this continues, this base will sooner or later be submerged by the black ice over there!
"Xiao Ran, what should we do?"
"I've been so unlucky lately!"
She ran to the square of the base in one breath and joined the crowd, Wu Linglong supporting herself with her hands on her knees and complaining.
"have no idea."
"The worst-case scenario is to evacuate."
Ling Ran responded and continued to look at the still melting black ice.
The ice cubes were falling in all directions with the highest point as the center. Ling Ran had no idea what was happening on the other three sides.
However, the area of this exploration area is far less than the frozen area.
The melted and falling ice blocks are tens of meters in diameter, and some are even larger. Every time they fall, they will smash a house, and the feeling of the earth shaking can be felt from a long distance away.
“Ouch!”
Wu Linglong staggered and almost fell to the ground, fortunately Ling Ran grabbed her.
The leaders of various schools and the managers of the base quickly gathered together to discuss solutions.
According to the school's opinion, that means never retreating until death.
The experience that has been passed down for hundreds of years cannot be interrupted in this session. It must continue regardless of natural disasters or man-made disasters.
The base was at a loss as to what to do.
Who would have thought it would suddenly melt? Even now, communications with the outside world have been cut off.
If they leave these thousands of students here, they won't be able to take responsibility if anything happens to them!
"After our discussion."
"Everything is under our control!"
"Please don't panic. Once the mysterious ice melts, you can go in and practice as soon as possible."
Finally, the base leader compromised and had to stand on the podium and speak to the students below.
After a few simple words, the leader rolled up his sleeves and walked away, with a sullen face, to arrange for people to investigate the cause and prevent the spread.
“So that’s how it is!”
Wu Linglong, like many other classmates, believed it to be true.
Ling Ran frowned as he looked at the leaders of various schools who were gathered around.
However, they were soon taken back to their respective dormitories in an organized manner and isolated from the outside world.
"And they asked us to wait for news in the dormitory. What on earth is going on?"
At this time, Wu Linglong finally noticed something unusual and sat on the edge of the bed, going crazy.
“It’s not that simple.”
"We must be best prepared to save ourselves."
Turning off his phone without internet, Ling Ran felt that things were not simple, so he did not hide it from Wu Yanyan and Gu Qingman, who were like frightened birds.
"Xiao Ran, analyze it."
Wu Linglong moved to Ling Ran's side.
"I just noticed that the opinions of the base are obviously different from those of the schools."
“I thought we had to evacuate.”
“But in the end I stayed here.”
"And the base leader also looked reluctant, proving that he was not sure about this matter either."
Ling Ran analyzed the clues he had found, and Wu Linglong kept nodding her head. As for Wu Yanyan and the other person opposite, they had no say at all.
"Then why take the risk and stay?"
Wu Linglong asked in confusion.
“It’s about levels.”
"All the schools are well-known institutions in the industry. They are strong, but they have never experienced disasters."
"Plus, this experience is a big risk ahead of time. It is a pioneering effort, so failure is not allowed."
"If they really evacuate back, they will be laughed at."
Ling Ran explained again.
This is the reality, the base must be very experienced with the outside world, while the schools rely on their own power and cannot communicate with the outside world.
Therefore, the leaders of each school chose to stay for the sake of the illusory honor.
They were too confident in their own strength and blindly believed in the capabilities of the base.
"How do you know?"
Wu Yanyan has been a little timid since Ling Ran splashed a glass of water on her that day, but she is still Wu Yanyan who doesn't get along with Ling Ran.
Seeing that Ling Ran's words made sense, she couldn't help but believe it a little, but she still confronted him with disdain.
She didn't want Ling Ran to always suppress her.
"That's just my guess."
Ling Ran didn't care about Wu Yanyan's attitude.
"Xiao Ran told you this with good intentions."
"What kind of virtue is this?"
"If you want to die, just jump out. Why do you have to try your luck here?"
Of course, Wu Linglong was not in a good mood at all. She glared at him and scolded him mercilessly.
“Boom!”
