Chapter 818: Analysis and Progress:
No one can be left behind.
Ronald carefully plowed the battlefield of the Rift Valley Ruins to ensure that nothing slipped through the net.
Then, while the power of the sun still burning on the frozen soil was not extinguished, he heated up the dry food he brought with him, and then while eating, he continued to the north pointed by the summoned creature.
The subsequent process is not much different from the previous search for the rift valley.
Braving the wind and snow blowing from the west, Ronald searched for the location mentioned by the other party on the vast ice field.
However things are not set in stone.
At noon the next day.
The terrible wind and snow that lasted for several days finally abated.
Ronald was flying in the air without adjusting his altitude. He could distinguish the changes in the terrain below just by relying on his own vision.
"..."
"I don't know what's going on with Kostat..."
He continued to fly in the air.
Ronald's gaze also looked to the northeast.
The direction in which the wind and snow raged across the land was blowing in this direction. As expected, the expedition partners should be able to escape the influence of this extreme weather in a while.
Although they said they had Juehai Lantern to help.
But a natural birth environment is always more comfortable than an artificial one.
"Huh--"
Thinking of this, Ronald let out a long sigh of relief, and his flying speed immediately increased a bit.
Now that the situation has improved.
Then he must continue to work harder.
...
The end of the blizzard seemed to herald a change in Ronald's luck.
Only half an hour after the wind and snow subsided, Ronald saw a broken ice layer with a large gap in the air. If you are looking for a cave that extends into the ice belt, then the concept here is very large.
"It should be here?"
Thinking this, Ronald began to continue to lower the altitude.
The [Astral Tray] spell also continues to increase its efforts in analyzing the surrounding terrain.
"..."
"It's true!"
In just a quarter of an hour, better news appeared.
Although Ronald did not find the entrance mentioned by the summoned creature immediately, he relied on the [Astrolabe] spell to record the surrounding terrain, and he still discovered that there were some hollow pipe-like tunnel structures under the ice.
For Ronald - that was enough.
“The greatest increase in the productivity of labor, and the greater proficiency, skill, and judgment in the exercise of labor, appear to have been the result of the division of labour…”
Aim for a tunnel nearest the top of the ice.
While Ronald was falling, the fastest spell to open a passage was also uttered on his lips.
The timing is almost perfect.
The moment Ronald's body appeared on the ice, the ice field ground also cracked under the control of the spell, creating a gap large enough for him to pass through.
Brush -
without any hindrance.
Ronald's voice disappeared on the ground, and he smoothly descended from top to bottom and directly reached the tunnel in the ice.
"..."
Now that we are inside the tunnel, the [Astrolabe] spell can collect the terrain more efficiently. Ronald's eyes just wandered around, and a clearer three-dimensional composition had already emerged in his mind.
First of all, the general structure here is still a naturally occurring underground space.
However, in the lower tunnel near the west, several large-sized hollow areas appear in the perception. These are obviously artificially opened caves in the later period, rather than naturally formed caves.
"Walking in a straight line or following the road..."
Ronald thought briefly.
There are two ways to get to those locations right now.
First, the clear route along the way was in his mind, and there was no chance that Ronald would get lost or go off the road when he walked there.
Second, continue to use violence to clear the way and attack Huanglong.
...
Rather than opening a straight path to reach the target location, Ronald felt that in this case, it would be good to clear out these summoned creatures along the way.
After all, this is already their base camp.
Moreover, with the combat power of these summoned creatures, they cannot delay themselves for too long.
Make a decision in your mind.
The sword of Santa Caterina was immediately held in his hand again from behind.
Ronald's visual ability allowed him to see the surrounding scenery in this dark environment. He simply did not use any light and planned a complete route to his destination in his mind. Ronald walked steadily towards Go forward.
...
the beginning of this journey.
Ronald still hasn't encountered a summoned creature.
Although it is also in the world under the ice, perhaps because of the higher location, the summoned creatures did not plan to open the base in this direction.
Until Ronald passed two underground corners and the depth continued to drop several meters.
He finally started to encounter the summoned creatures here.
This time the situation is different from that in the Rift Valley.
In the ice rift that was cleared yesterday, the summoned creatures had an absolute advantage in number, and the abilities of the various summoned creatures varied in strength. Among them are weak people who can only close their eyes and wait for death, and even ordinary people can deal with them.
There are also powerful individuals who can escape the disaster and must be dealt with by Ronald hacking them one by one.
But here on the ice sheet -
it can be said that the elites have gathered.
Ronald started working his way down from the first batch of summoned creatures, and it took him more than ten or twenty seconds each time.
This does not mean that their strength can compete with Ronald.
But the summoned creatures here generally have smart brains and systematic fighting methods. Ronald must spend more time to ensure that these guys are eliminated one by one.
"So..."
"I really fought all the way to my hometown on the opposite side..."
while swinging his sword to kill all the enemies in front of him.
Ronald couldn't help but express some of the subtle emotions in his heart.
Logically speaking, the spells in this world are all composed of original scriptures. But after Ronald thought about it, he didn't think there were many original scriptures on earth that could support such a complex summoning spell structure.
As far as Ronald is concerned, "The Divine Comedy" also has summoning spells.
When dealing with enemies who have committed the crime of gluttony, he can summon hellhounds to attack the enemies.
But the situation with this call.
These summoned creatures are completely different from those currently summoned by Ronald.
Recalling his previous experiences and what he had read in various materials, Ronald was more inclined to think that it was the ability of some original texts that connected some unknown new worlds.
This leads to the essence of these summoned creatures, or otherworldly creatures, invading this world.
"The theory of parallel worlds? Or the Nine Worlds of the World Tree?"
"..."
Ronald recalled the original scriptures that might have caused such an impact in his mind. Whether it was myths or scientific theories, he listed them all within the scope of his knowledge. .
The result is that the possibility seems not small?
Until you see the culprit directly, it's difficult to determine the outcome based on mere guesswork.
"But in this case."
"What is the original code of Shuangxi City?"
While Ronald was thinking and solving a group of summoned creatures, he also came to the first open place.
This is the underground space opened up by the summoned creatures.
That's right here.
Ronald raised his eyebrows and finally stopped his progress for the first time.
