Chapter 344 Father and Daughter

"Huh! Drink! Ah!"

Bursts of low-pitched sounds like a bull's roar came from a frozen building, and no predator dared to approach here.

It was a scientific research station built entirely on a huge ice floe, built during the Da Mao Federation period.It is hard to see that the scientific research station so many years ago was not a few thin small houses, but a permanent building made of reinforced concrete. The strongest permanent ice shelf nearby was driven down vertically with steel pipes to form a pile foundation, and then built on top of it. Build a house and surround it with barbed wire.A large satellite dish stands quietly, and it can be imagined that there is a quite powerful transmitter inside, which is the most advanced radar equipment, and the military ships and civilian ships passing through the North Pole are all under its surveillance.

However, this scientific research station has been abandoned, because when the scientific research station was established, the greenhouse effect was not a hot topic. Within the limited service life of that scientific research station, it is absolutely stable.But I didn't expect that the intensification of the greenhouse effect would lead to global warming, and these permanent ice shelves began to crack. Therefore, this scientific research station has only passed a quarter of its long lifespan, and it is already facing the danger of falling to the bottom of the sea at any time, so even if It cost a lot, and the Da Mao Federation had to scrap it.

After it was abandoned, it became the lair of Hydera and its descendants. The snow outside the scientific research station was full of stripes similar to rut marks, which were traces left by snakes crawling.

But at this moment, there is no snake in this snake nest, only the low gasp of a man.

It was a man wearing a polar bear fur coat, with dry and rough skin. If the villagers of the Inuit village were here, they should be able to recognize this as Xue's father, but those sea-blue eyes were golden yellow at the moment.

That is a symbol of dragon blood in the body.

The man was bound by a chain, which was obviously a metal chain, but it had the toughness like a spring.No matter how hard the man struggled, the chains would stick tightly to his body, making it impossible for him to break free.

That is not a famous chain in the history of the dragon clan, but an alchemy chain, not as good as the "Dragon Binder" that the night watchman dug out from the tomb of the Sumerian Dynasty, it can only bind a three-generation species, but Definitely enough for this man.

It was bound by her former daughter, Sedna, who is now the Lord of Sea and Water, after she killed Bechymos.

He told this man to stay away from here, find a place where no one knew him, and hide.For example, the Inuit tribe in Canada found a forest or snowfield, hid it, and never went out again for the rest of their lives.

But the man refused, and he learned the true face of the so-called "god" and a little history of the dragon clan from Behemoth.

He doesn't care if Xue is Sedna, the king of sea and water, or if he stands against human beings, he only knows that someone wants to kill his daughter, and as a father, he must take up his own weapon , Whether it is punching, kicking, tearing with nails, or biting with teeth, he must protect her daughter!

Even though his daughter is already a high-ranking king and one of the strongest beings in the world, in his eyes, she is still his lovely and petite daughter, a daughter who has not grown up and needs his protection.How can a father watch his daughter face the enemy alone while he hides in the safe place his daughter prepared for him?

"Roar!"

The seeds of tyrannical will took root in this father's mind, and the emotion called tyrannical overflowed in his mind, filling his brain.

The man is lost in the tyrannical will, caught in the illusion that the tyrannical will brings to his consciousness.

In that dreamland, the man is holding the hand of the snow and sitting on the sled, and those loyal and reliable huskies are carrying the father and daughter on a snowy field.The man took out a piece of seared seal meat that was still hot from the thermos, and handed it to the smiling daughter who held his left arm and pressed her little head tightly against his body.

He took his daughter to find the prey, which were Arctic musk oxen.

Xue lay quietly on the ground, holding the gun, and taking a deep breath.

It was a Blaser K95 shotgun, a modern shotgun.

Although Blaser K95 is a single-shot shotgun, it is far superior to similar-sized shotguns in terms of accuracy and range.It was extremely popular among the Inuit due to the large trigger guard on the Blaser K95.The Inuit are fully armed when they go hunting, and they also wear thick gloves on their hands, but this design allows the Inuit to pull the trigger even if they wear thick gloves.

On the other hand, the top of Blaser K95’s precision-crafted receiver is designed with a dedicated sight mount, which can be equipped with a suitable optical sight for the gun. The top of the barrel of the gun is also prefabricated with a red fiber optic tube sight.

Of course, the most critical point lies in its design and structure.Although the barrel of the Blaser K95 is relatively short, the barrel made of high-quality stainless steel and built-in precision rifling is enough to make the bullets fired by the gun extremely easy to hit the intended target at a distance of 300 meters.The lost part of the total length is transferred to the handguard at the top of the muzzle barrel. The growth of the handguard allows the user to aim the gun in a more stable posture, and also greatly reduces the impact of recoil on the shoulder.The gun stock made of high-quality walnut wood is very ergonomic, even beginners can find the gun feel in a very short time, which is very suitable for little girls like Xue.

The man looked at his daughter tenderly, and whispered in her ear, pointing out the small flaws in her shooting posture, as well as her slightly nervous state of mind, and told some rules of wild hunting.

"Xue, that's a pregnant female musk ox, you can't shoot it."

"Look, that's a female musk ox with a baby musk ox, and you can't shoot it either."

"Yes, that's the male musk ox. It looks like a single male musk ox living alone."

"Steady, don't shake your hand, don't squeeze the trigger tightly with your index finger, it's easy to go off."

Although the Inuit rely on killing and hunting to maintain their lives and lives, they do not kill indiscriminately.

Pregnant female animals, female animals waiting for their cubs, all kinds of wild animal cubs under the age of [-] are not allowed to be hunted, and male animals with families are not allowed to be hunted, etc.The Inuit hunt only for survival, not for the enjoyment of those European and American lords. They have almost strict and inhumane rules and sky-high fines, which is also a respect for nature.

"Don't have any psychological burden. This is the law of survival in this land, and it is also the hunting that the gods acquiesce. After death, they will turn into elves, accompany the gods and elves, and enjoy a happy life."

Xue remained silent and pulled the trigger.

boom!
The bullet hit the calf of the male musk ox, but the strong penetrating force allowed the bullet to penetrate directly into the muscle of the musk ox, and the bullet just missed its calf bone.

The gunshots caused a commotion, and the arctic musk oxen began to scatter in all directions, while the wounded male limped but ran fast, bleeding as he ran, barely keeping up. The team of Arctic musk oxen galloped in the back position.

The man rushed onto the sled with the snow in his arms, directing the huskies to run forward following the smell of blood.

This is also the rule of the Inuit. Except for the traps that have been set up in advance and the person is not nearby, otherwise, once the prey is injured, it must be responsible for killing it!

This is not cruelty, but the greatest kindness.

Those injured animals will die due to wound infection, and even if they survive, it may cause serious sequelae, such as disability.Such animals may be left behind by the herd because they cannot keep up with the herd, or they may starve and die of thirst because they cannot compete for food and water.

So they had to kill the wounded bull musk ox!
The huskies ran hard, keeping a distance of about 30 meters from the herd of musk oxen.This will neither arouse the resentment of the musk oxen nor lose the injured male musk ox.

After advancing for an unknown amount of time, the male musk ox finally couldn’t run anymore. Its injury made it impossible to run for a long time. The secretion similar to adrenal hormone can only support it to run for a short time regardless of the injury. It occupied its nerves.It knelt down on the ground, howling, unable to stand up again.

Encouraged by the man, Snow lifted the Blaiser K95 and ended its life.

There was a small blood hole in the head of the musk ox, but in order to ensure that the musk ox was completely dead and would not cause any pain, the man made up his mind to let his daughter shoot it in the head twice more at close range.

The girl suppressed the discomfort and took two more shots, but there were tears in her eyes.

She couldn't restrain the intolerance and sadness in her heart any longer, and threw herself into the arms of the man.

She doesn't like to kill, but this is something that every Inuit cannot avoid.As long as they live on this land, they will inevitably face the choice of killing and death.

Suddenly, everything disappeared.

The snow, the huskies, the dead musk ox, all disappeared, leaving only a bare snow field and the man alone.

The man finally remembered that his daughter...had become that kind of god-like existence, and she was no longer that weak and weak girl.

His name is Sedna, just like the name of the sea goddess in Inuit mythology.

Speaking of which, Sedna in the myth also has an old father, but she is not happy.

Legend has it that Sedna is a very beautiful girl. Her mother died young due to illness, and she was raised by her father alone since she was a child.Sedna is not only beautiful, but also learned superb fishing skills from her father, which makes Sedna more popular with young men in the tribe, and they come to propose marriage one after another.But Sedna turned down every man who proposed marriage one by one, no matter how handsome or good at hunting they were, they were all rejected, because in her eyes those men were not the ones she liked.

But in the Inuit tribe, which is short of population, late marriage must not be tolerated.So the father said in a commanding tone, "I'm old and I can't support the two of us by fishing and darning nets. Anyway, whoever comes to propose marriage next, you must go with him!"

Sedna had no choice but to accept her father's arrangement.

Within a few days, a young hunter came to their door.He was well-dressed, but his face was hidden under the low brim of his hat.Sedna's father went up to the hunter and said: "I have a beautiful daughter, she has a pair of skillful hands who are good at cooking, fishing and mending. If you are going to marry, sir, I believe she will be your virtuous daughter." wife."

The young hunter nodded without saying a word, and then took Sedna out of the house. After arriving at the destination, Sedna got off the boat, but Sedna found that there was no hay shed or tent there.She looked around and saw bare stones and sheer cliffs.The young hunter took off his hat in front of Sedna, revealing his small black head, which turned out to be a big crow in disguise.Sedna turned and ran away in fright, but was caught by the big black bird. Sedna started her new life like this, and she could only eat the raw fish brought home by the crow at dusk every day.

Day after day of hard life, Sedna often cried and recited her father's name, but the cold arctic wind actually whistled her sad cries to Sedna's father's ears.After the father heard his daughter's cry, he followed the cold arctic wind to the island where Sedna lived.After seeing her father, Sedna hugged her father tightly and wept bitterly.

The father and daughter immediately decided to leave the island, but not long after the small kayak left the island, Sedna noticed a black spot in the distant sky.She knew that the black dot was the angry crow husband.

The crow quickly swooped down on the small kayak. Sedna's father beat the crow with the paddle, but couldn't hit the crow no matter what.The crow swooped down again and again, beating the icy sea water with its wings, making the calm Arctic Ocean suddenly turn into a violent torrent, like a giant beast with its mouth wide open, about to swallow the small kayak.

Sedna's father was so frightened that he was at a loss. In order to protect himself, he grabbed the sea water that Sedna humiliated and roared at her, and shouted: "Please take her away, don't hurt me."

Sedna struggled in the bitter water when a kind seal pushed her to the side of the small kayak, and she clung to the side of the boat.But her cowardly father, in order to survive, pushed her into the water again and let her sink to the bottom of the sea.Sedna did not disappear, but was rescued by seals and became the goddess of the sea. She stayed with seals, walruses, and sea lions all day long in the deep Arctic Ocean, and protected them.

And Sedna's irresistible resentment often turned into huge waves and storms in the Arctic, so the hunter respected and feared her.

Legend has it that only when the shaman swims to the bottom of the sea to comb her knotted hair, the storm will calm down.Then, at the shaman's prayer and uttering the request for the hunt, she will release those sea animals for the hunters to show the generosity and greatness of the ocean.

Even now, whenever hunters capture a seal, walrus, or sea lion, they drop some water in the seal's mouth to thank Sedna for her kindness.

Ah, the Sedna in that story is so miserable, even Sedna, the king of sea and water in the real history, was not favored by her father, but now my daughter, she has to face the crisis of death alone, facing brutal enemy.

I can't let my daughter face danger alone!
Boom!
It seemed that a string was broken, the sound was very soft, but extremely clear!

The man felt as if he had fallen into a vast black ocean. The black sea engulfed his body and his consciousness little by little. He began to gradually lose track of who he was, but the depths of his heart were filled with Great joy.

Obviously feeling sleepy, but very excited.

It seemed to fall asleep, and it seemed to start dancing.

The man floating in the black ocean opened his eyes, and the black sea water entered his eyes, dyeing those black and white eyes black.

His eyes were pitch black, like a universe that hadn't been born.

The eyelids drooped heavily, covering the pupils, as if falling asleep.

But the next moment, he opened his eyes again, and the red-gold pupils illuminated the dark seabed, dyeing the black ocean into red-gold.

Everything is like waking up after a hibernation, and like a rebirth after a death.

The man in the real world opened his red-gold eyes, and the alchemy chains on his body were easily broken off.

"My name is Poriaco, guardian of Her Majesty Sedna, Lord of Sea and Water!"
