Chapter 124

Luo Binhan climbed to the edge of the lake, his distorted face reflected in the clear blue lake.But in this poisonous flame that tormented his body and mind, his thoughts became much lighter.

He put his right hand into the lake and stroked the lake shore through antifreeze gloves, and found that it was not a naturally formed slope, but a flat ice wall that fell vertically like a reservoir wall.Because the liquid was so clear, the bottom of the lake seemed right in front of him, but he couldn't reach anything with his right arm.

He pulled off a piece of frozen internal organs and threw it in, watching it take about 30 seconds before it sank to the bottom.He didn't know what the density of the lake was, but the area around the lake's shore was beyond imagination.

It's not like a purely natural landform.

The dry wind blew across the lake, and many small ice particles hit his hood.The temperature here makes it impossible for moisture to circulate through the air, and the changes in the landscape seem to be accomplished by wind erosion.

Luo Binhan still remembers the strange terrain he passed on the road.Since time can cause such great changes to the surface of the planet, the facilities related to the freezer should take this into consideration.If there is a wake-up console for a freezer, it should be neither hard to find by the keepers nor too easy to corrupt by natural accident.

A certain location very close to the freezer, relatively hidden, yet stable and windless.It is best to have a natural low-temperature cooling source there, otherwise there is no need to pick and choose this cold planet.

He searched the bottom of the lake.In the seemingly impurity-free cool color, a slightly clear area caught his attention.That strange patch of color was extremely faint, like a flaw on a sapphire, but it was very close to the freezer under the ice bank.

Luo Binhan watched there for half a minute, expecting to see some gas coming out of the lake to prove that there is indeed a normal temperature area at the bottom of the lake, but he failed to do so.

Time gradually passed.He could only crawl towards that area along the shore of the lake, and then rolled into the cold waves with the silver box in his arms.

The extreme cold froze to death more body tissues near the wound, but fortunately the half-torn antifreeze suit still provided him with oxygen and vision.When he had crossed the lake, he discovered a great silvery-white metal plate lying near the far lake bed.It is embedded so deep in the solid plate at the bottom of the liquid lake that it shines almost like an ice bed.Cold currents passed around it, but it was separated by some kind of transparent cover.

He adjusted his position as much as possible during the descent, and managed to land himself on top of the cover.This device exists as a solid entity and cannot travel freely like an air shield, and Robinhan has not been able to find any similar locks or switches.

The cold air from the viscera is spreading.Without hesitation, he smashed the plastic-like shield with his fist.

The lake "water" began to pour into the enclosure.

Luo Binhan didn't know whether the equipment underneath could prevent the liquid from penetrating and destroying, so he had to squeeze desperately into it.He dropped on the metal plate and found that its surface was covered with neat round caps, each with a tab and a number.Although the deep water environment affected his vision, he could barely make out the sequential numbers.

He crawled over to the lid that had 104 written on it, lifted it from the metal plate, and smashed at the button hidden inside.He did it as fast as he could, but the lake "water" still seeped into the gap.

Buttons have no feedback.

Light, sound, vibration, all the reactions that Luo Binhan expected did not appear, only the liquid level continued to rise.

This made his heart sink, and at the same time, there was a flame burning in his head.A deep voice was calling to him, waiting for him, trying to squeeze inside him.He couldn't tell if it was a nightmare that had come true, or a hallucination that occurred when he was dying.He had never heard this voice, but he felt an inexplicable kindness, which made him strongly want to respond.

He stretched out his hand unconsciously to the depths of the dark waves, but Li Li's face flashed past his thoughts.

The sheet metal has been completely submerged.Suddenly awakened, Luo Binhan withdrew his hand, turned his upper body sideways, and was about to tear off the antifreeze suit on his abdomen, and use the damaged gravity device to make a final attempt.At this moment, he saw a faint glow in the ice wall not far away.

It was a small square transparent cabin, which was emitting a warm yellowish color like sunlight at the moment.A few seconds later, it began to cross the ice wall, approaching Luo Binhan.Its horizontal position was slightly higher than the lake bed, and it just slid at a downward angle to the console cover that was broken by Robin Han.

The small cabin broke through the wall.

Immediately after it, a stream of water formed by melting ice spewed out, and condensed again into a horizontal icicle at the bottom of the lake.The "lake water" near the small cabin boils and vaporizes in an instant, forming a large number of upwelling bubbles.

The commotion slightly disturbed Luo Binhan's vision.He dragged himself out of the outer cover a little anxiously, and moved towards the square freezer parked nearby.Now he could see what was lying in the cabin.

It was a pale and complete human skeleton.It looks so realistic that it is no different from the model in Zhou Yu's house.

Luo Binhan didn't know if he had found the right thing, but the situation was already in dire straits.With the strap of the silver chest in his mouth, he climbed on the lake bed with one hand.The surrounding environment was so dark and blurry that he didn't even know if he was really alive.

He climbed to the side of the small cabin, opened the hatch roughly, and tore the several thin sheets sticking outside. Then he grabbed the skull and dragged it out of the crystal coffin-like container .

There is a circular hollow at the top of the skull, which seems to fit perfectly with the base of the pot inside the silver box.So Luo Binhan let go of his mouth, let the silver box fall on the lake bed, and entered the password with his gradually blurred memory.

The box opened successfully on the third attempt.He grabbed the brain pot fixed in the box and stuffed it into the hollow at the top of the skull.Some kind of mechanical bite-like touch came from his hands.

The skull's dark and empty eye sockets suddenly lit up, and a strange blood-red light shot out from them. After a few seconds, it broke free from Luo Binhan's palm, and floated on the bottom of the lake like seaweed.Thick bloody light emanates from its brain, extending to the ribs and spine, making it look like some kind of undead monster revived by black magic.

The skull's eyes flickered, and a voice sounded in Luo Binhan's mind.

"...Hello, dear teacher, I am Lan Que from the Tower of the Spirit Rose, and I am honored to participate in your research! The recorder shows that I have been meditating for nearly a hundred days while traveling, and there is no network signal here at all. Could you please tell me where this is? Oh, and, I can't help but say that your attire has a real personality. Is that hollow in your belly part of some sort of magical ritual? Or is it a disguise for movement in a special area ?Are you a traditional necromancer? Of course I am by no means a conservative robesist, but your overalls look really... I think 'lifelike' is a more appropriate term. These wounds, blood clots, broken intestines , and texture - they can even freeze to death! How did you make it so realistic? It looks like a very traditional technique, did you use the remains of a real person? I must admit I'm not quite used to this practice yet, but I've heard it's a common practice in some parts of the world... Will you be teaching me the art next? I can't wait to learn something new! Any genre doesn't matter, I Willing to know all the secrets about spells, such as how you make this body work so realistically, such as deceleration of heartbeat, hypothermia, cell necrosis, brain... Oh, wait, your brain skull is completely sealed, Doesn't look like you've had any surgery..."

Its voice gradually became softer.Luo Binhan was speechless and could only stare at it expressionlessly.After a while the voice sounded again.

"You, like, are an ancient law?" It asked uncertainly, "I'm not familiar with your characteristics, but your current physical values, it looks like... oh my god, you are now Are you really on the verge of death?!"

It screamed uncontrollably in Robinhan's head.
