Chapter 277 Attrition, Logging Cabin
In the tent, the temperature gradually dropped.
The insulation effect of this tent is pretty good.
But when the heat source is lost, there is still no way to avoid the loss of temperature.
Everyone gathered around the mysterious egg, using the egg's weak temperature to keep warm.
This weak temperature is not enough for players.
Their faces were pale from the cold, their lips were blue, and they looked like they were about to freeze to death.
Su Ming himself felt uncomfortable, his whole body was cold, as if his blood was about to solidify.
However, he has a solid foundation and can hold on for the time being.
This feeling of being cold is really uncomfortable.
It took more than ten hours for the heavy fog to completely dissipate.
The station god's lips turned white and his voice was trembling: "Finally...there is no fog..."
Su Ming stood up and relaxed his muscles: "Let's go."
The players who were sleeping in the tent were woken up by those who were still awake.
However, two of the players did not make any move no matter how they called.
When I walked in to check, I found that he had frozen to death in his sleep.
The twelve players in Lucheng who entered the dungeon experienced attrition for the first time.
Moreover, this death is two.
Looking at the corpses of the two companions, the remaining players couldn't help but feel a bit sad.
In this endless snowfield, he might be the next one to fall.
Su Ming said: "Dig a hole in the snow and bury the person."
"With the life-saving items here, the person is not completely dead. We can still see him after we leave the dungeon."
There was nothing he could do about this situation.
He can only try to lead them forward and try to lead them to the end.
There was someone in the middle who couldn't hold on, and there was nothing he could do.
Zhang Tieshu: "Indeed, people are not dead yet."
Station God: "Lao Wang and Gou Zi also got two scary props each, so it's not too bad to leave now."
"Let's bury them quickly and continue on our way."
The players who were still alive started to get busy.
Dragging their stiff bodies, they each divided their duties.
Some packed their tents, while others dug holes in the snow to bury the bodies.
They were very efficient and had everything done in just ten minutes.
A grave was erected in the snow.
There are a few big characters written on the front - Lucheng players Lao Wang and Gou Zi hibernate here.
This small grave may soon be submerged by the heavy snow behind it.
Also, they don't really die.
But the sense of ritual should still be maintained.
Then, he briefly walked around again.
I found that from time to time there would be a place on the snow with one or two pieces of equipment scattered.
There is a long sword with a cold light.
[Arctic Empire Ice Front Grade Standard Long Sword (Perfect Level): The long sword used by the elite warriors of the Arctic Empire is strong, sharp and has good conductivity to some special energies. 】
[Southern Ice Empire SSS-level standard long sword (perfect grade): A long sword carefully crafted by the Southern Ice Empire's Sword Forging Department. Each sword has gone through eighteen quality inspection processes and has good conductivity to some special energies. 】
After all, they are weapons of extraordinary beings, and the quality of these swords is quite good.
In the thriller dungeon, various precious weapons are not uncommon.
However, it is very rare to be able to take it out as a horror prop.
Standing God held a Arctic Empire long sword in his hand, observed it, and said with emotion: "This sword is no worse than my black sword!"
His black knife was a treasure he bought from a prop dealer for a huge sum of money in a certain instance.
Later, I found an opportunity to specifically strengthen the black knife.
Even so, it seems that it is not as good as the long sword in front of him.
These long swords were divided among Su Ming and others.
Everyone can get one or two.
Among them, Su Ming took one long sword each from the Northern Ice Empire and the Southern Ice Empire.
Maybe I’ll be able to use it later!
Even if you don't use it, it's good to keep it in your own hands as a souvenir.
Zhang Tieshu felt a little regretful: "It's a pity that I only have a long sword. It would be nice to have a set of armor like those warriors."
Another wave of bountiful harvests. This diluted the sadness of losing two companions a lot.
Su Ming looked at the sun in the sky from time to time, constantly adjusting his direction.
Finally, in a world full of snow-white, a touch of black appeared.
This discovery made all the players extremely excited.
"What is that??"
"Oh my God! Finally a different color!!"
"Quick! Let's get there!"
"This vast white world almost makes me vomit!"
"That seems to be...a forest?"
"Great! We can replenish our firewood here!"
……

After having the goal, everyone's pace suddenly accelerated a lot.
As they got closer, the appearance of the black area appeared.
It was a dark pine forest.
In front of the pine forest, there is a small wooden house. Next to the small wooden house, there is a fenced yard.
In the yard, there are whole black logs stacked up.
Zhang Tieshu: "Is this a small logging farm?"
"It doesn't look abandoned yet. Could it be that there are still people living here?"
Su Ming: "Let's go and visit the owner here."
He walked to the front, toward the cabin.
Dong Dong Dong——
Come to the door and knock gently.
After a while, the wooden door was opened.
The person who opened the door was an old man holding a cigarette stick in his mouth.
The players could tell at a glance that this was Old Man Zhang who had sponsored them with supplies before.
The old man looked them over and said, "Hey~ there are so many people?"
"This is really a rare thing. No tourists have come here for a long time."
"Come, come, everyone, please come in."
Seeing the other person act like they have never seen them before.
Players feel a little confused.
Could it be that the person in front of me is the twin brother of the old man Zhang?
That's why they look so similar.
After seeing Su Ming follow him in, they also followed him into the cabin.
Feeling the temperature in the room, the pale skin quickly turned rosy.
He added two pieces of black wood to the stove in the middle of the cabin.
Then, place an iron kettle filled with water on the stove.
Then, he said: "Welcome all mountaineering warriors to my hut. I am a lumberjack here. You can just call me Lao Zhang."
His surname is Zhang too?
Su Ming said: "Hello, Lao Zhang! We are members of the snow mountaineering team. Our goal this time is to conquer this snow mountain!"
"I've heard about your logging cabin for a long time. This is a key supply station for many mountaineering teams!"
Old man Zhang chuckled: "Thank you, thank you."
“I didn’t expect that my cabin would be so famous!”
Su Ming: "That's not true!"
"Any small group that comes here to climb the snow-capped mountains, which one is not allowed to pass by?"
Old Man Zhang sighed: "Well, speaking of it, it's been a long time since a mountaineering team came."
“I don’t know if this snow mountain has become outdated or what happened.”
“I remember that there were quite a lot of people who came here to climb before…”
The players just watched while Su Ming and Old Man Zhang started chatting.
The conversation was quite congenial, as if it was too late for them to meet each other.
There was no mention at all that the old man Zhang in front of him looked exactly like the old man Zhang before.
Since Su Ming didn't ask, they didn't dare to ask either.
I was afraid that I would break a taboo and ruin Su Ming's affairs.
