Chapter 1110 Cold Spring World?
Chapter 1110 Cold Spring World?
This old man... is really stubborn...
After looking at the thin frost slowly condensing on the back of his hand, Leon nodded speechlessly, decisively switched out [Ocean Disaster], wiped out the negative state of freezing, and then hummed without comment.
"Let's go then!"
Seeing that Leon didn't seem to notice what he had done, a hint of pride flashed across the eyes of the old mermaid. Then he immediately swung his tail and swam down into the freezing cold ocean current.
As the two continued to dive along the cracks in the ice and gradually approached the deepest part of the Central Sea, the temperature of the surrounding ocean currents began to drop sharply. In just a few breaths, the water film that the mermaid had previously coated around the two began to freeze rapidly.
"Boy!"
After secretly rubbing the back of his hand and quietly wiping off the thin frost on it, the old mermaid turned back and asked with ill intent:
"Can you still hold on? If you can't stand the cold anymore, speak up!"
"Ah."
Leon, who was observing the sea below, responded. While continuing to observe the situation of the sea eye under the ice, he responded calmly:
"If I can't bear it, I'll tell you."
"Haha, okay!"
After taking a look at the freezing of the water film around Leon and confirming that he was enduring the cold current, the young merman snorted. He did not directly expose Leon's "showing off", but turned his head away with a slight disdain.
If you don't say anything, just bear with it! I wonder how long you can keep being stubborn!
"Your Excellency, the Chief."
Not wanting to bother with the young mermaid's childish thoughts, Leon followed him as he dived down, squinting at the huge blue "aperture" under the ice, and asked curiously:
"The one below is the Sea Eye of the real world, right? Is there any difference between this Sea Eye and the Sea Eye of your Tidal Realm?"
"..."
No...it's so cold around here, and you still have the mind to ask this?
After taking a deep breath of the surrounding sea water, feeling the horrible cold that almost froze him from the inside out, the old merman couldn't help but smack his lips and looked back at Leon with a little suspicion.
The water film around him is almost frozen through, right? If it were me, I would start to tremble when I speak, surrounded by so many cold currents. How can this guy still be fine?
"Mr. Leader?"
After waiting for a while without any response, Leon raised his eyebrows and said:
"Is this question difficult to answer?"
"Humph."
After humming habitually, the old merman turned his head back and continued to break the ice while explaining:
"There's nothing to hide... The function of our part of the Sea Eye in the Tidal World is not much different from that in the real world. The other end is connected to the Cold Spring World. However, because it was cut from the Sea Eye in the real world, in addition to connecting to the Cold Spring World, it is also the entrance and exit between the Tidal World and the real world."
"I probably understand."
Gazing at the huge half-real and half-illusory sea eye under the ice, Leon said thoughtfully:
"So the Sea Eye is like a big cake, with the front attached to the real world and the back attached to the cold spring world. You, the sea people, are like folding this cake in half, so now the Sea Eye is both a passage between the real world and the tidal world, and a passage from the tidal world and the real world to the cold spring world."
"That's about it... Are you ready?"
After reaching out to touch the ice below, the old mermaid leaned over to observe for a while, then said with a droopy face:
"There is only one layer of ice left. If we break this layer of ice, we will directly reach the eye of the sea. Then, if we take one more step down, we will directly enter the cold spring world, but the cold current we face will also increase sharply in an instant... Are you sure you can withstand it?" "Yes."
"..."
You are the one who wanted to show off! Don't blame me!
Seeing that Leon was still holding on at this time, the old mermaid, who felt that he had done his best, said no more. He took out his scepter and hit it hard on the ice below the two men.
"Crack!"
With a sharp cracking sound like a glass curtain wall breaking, the ice between Leon and the other person and the sea eye exploded. In the deep sea, which was almost lead gray due to the lack of light, the dark blue ring-shaped sea eye suddenly expanded.
Tens of thousands of tons of cold sea water burst out from a huge aperture with a diameter of more than five kilometers. The moment the gushing torrent reached the world, it immediately condensed into a magnificent ice waterfall hanging upside down on the seabed, freezing Leon and the mermaid directly inside.
The "passage" that the two had worked so hard to break the ice for a long time to dig out was refrozen in the blink of an eye, and then the lower limit collapsed in large areas, carrying the two people who were frozen in the icefall and falling directly into the huge sea eye.
……
What bad luck... The moment I knocked on it, the sea eye was expanding...
Feeling his mind becoming extremely slow under the erosion of the biting cold, the old merman couldn't help but curse his bad luck. Then he tightened his scepter with difficulty and turned back to "dig" towards where Leon was.
Even though I was protected by enough water film, I was nearly frozen by the sudden burst of ocean current. That guy must have been frozen solid now. I don’t know how much effort it will take to dig him out... Tsk... If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have tricked him... Damn it!
Seeing Leon grabbing the end of the scepter and arching out from the ice behind him, the old mermaid was startled and said with shock:
"How come you're not frozen?"
"Uh... because I'm resistant to freezing?"
After casually replying with some meaningless nonsense, Leon looked at the old mermaid whose whole body was covered with white frost, and even his nose hair was frozen, and couldn't help but frowned:
"Mr. Leader? Are you okay?"
"Me? Of course I'm fine! Very fine!"
Seeing that the water film around him had long been frozen and shattered, but there was still no change on his body, and even his complexion was still rosy, the old mermaid quickly broke off the frozen nose hair and threw it away, and replied with a stern face:
"You, a human being, are fine, so what could be wrong with me?"
"Then why is your face frozen..."
"That's not freezing! I'm from the sea, there's a lot of water, so my face gets frosted easily!"
"Um... okay..."
After taking a look at the old mermaid's frozen front teeth, Leon nodded slightly, not wanting to continue to dwell on this question. Instead, he looked around and said:
"Mr. Yishou, have we reached the Cold Spring Realm now?"
"more or less."
After turning his back and knocking off the ice on his front teeth, the old merman hummed:
"You may have been frozen unconscious and didn't see anything, but I stayed awake until the very last moment and saw with my own eyes that the icicle that froze us sank into the sea eye. From now on, as long as we get out of this big icicle, we will reach the cold spring... What are you doing?!"
