The cold wind was whistling, and heavy snow was falling, with the sky-covering snow blocking the view of the distance.
Countless stripes of brass steel fras, constructed and stacked into a triangular copper-colored high tower.
A faint clock shadow hovered in the air, moving backward mont by mont with the passage of ti.
Above the base, there was also a two-story wooden building.
Because of the design of this second floor, the indoor environnt was relatively warm.
Kreya and the others were wrapped in blankets, sleeping in the corner.
Only Kane, from the surrounding holes facing outward, intermittently patrolled and observed the distant environnt, checking for any approaching enemies.
The shadow of the clock below had already moved to the 10 mark. In another two hours, the occupied ti would soon be halfway over.
At that ti, the tower would send a signal to the surroundings, attracting nearby explorers to co over.
The last 12 hours were when Kane and the others needed to be fully prepared.
"You’re awake, aren’t you going to sleep a bit more?" Kane looked at Kreya, who stood up, lifting the blanket, and asked.
Kreya shook her head, and the red long hair at the back of her head automatically started to tidy itself, swirling and circling up into a bun, a strand of red hair picking up an invisible hairpin and inserting it into her head, with a starry gemstone slowly rotating.
After tidying up her appearance, Kreya asked, "Do you want to rest for a while? I can take over for you."
"No need, the occupation ti is almost halfway over, and by then we must be fully prepared. These explorers are not friendly; they’ve all reached the peak silver level, which should not be underestimated."
Just as Kane finished speaking, nine portraits appeared in the sky outside.
The portrait of the 5-person team was split by a red line and shattered.
"Oh, it seems another team of explorers has perished." Longbei’s voice ca.
He was sitting on the floor, lifting the blanket, and looking at the action happening in the sky from the nearby window.
After the action in the sky disappeared, Kane lowered his head: "In less than a day, already two 5-person teams have exited? It seems this exploration will be quite intense."
According to the dungeon’s intelligence, during the initial stage of exploration, it is very rare for explorers to exit in the first three days.
This map is quite large; with 200 people, more than 40 teams scattered within, not even a splash would be made, and it’s hard to encounter anyone as long as the map doesn’t collapse.
And the outermost part of the map starting to collapse will not begin until three days later.
However, given that the teams participating in the exploration this ti are considered top-tier silver-level, such situations are understandable.
Looking at the clock below that continued to spin slowly, Kane said: "Alright, everyone co over and eat sothing. In a little while, the occupation ti will be halfway over, and at that ti we’ll need to stay vigilant. Let’s fill our stomachs first."
Kreya ca next to a sleeping bag the size of a baby carriage; Lilu was sticking out her head, sleeping soundly, perhaps dreaming of sothing, with drool spilling from the corner of her mouth.
A strand of red hair fell from Kreya’s head, the tip brushing across Lilu’s face.
Feeling uncomfortable on her face, Lilu frowned tightly even in her sleep, reaching her hand to grab around on her face.
Finally, having no other choice, she had to open her eyes, just in ti to see Kreya looking at her.
Rubbing her eyes, with a flash, she disappeared from the sleeping bag, reappearing while sitting on Kreya’s shoulder, holding onto the returning strand of hair.
"Hee hee, got caught by Lilu, didn’t you?"
Watching Lilu on her shoulder, Kreya smiled and said, "Lilu, let go of it now, it knows it was wrong, co and eat."
"Then Lilu forgives it," she said, releasing the hair and following Kreya to Kane and the others.
Kane and the others were sitting next to a heating device, on top of which were their own carried rations.
Each of them had their own favorite instant als and various marching rations in their backpacks to ensure logistical support in any situation.
After all, the conditions here couldn’t allow Kreya to leisurely cook a al.
"Huh?" Kane looked at what Lilu was eating and asked in confusion, "Lilu, when did you buy Cloud Plum Fruits?"
This fruit was white and soft, crispy and delicious, with moderate sweetness, belonging to the type that Kane rather liked.
"I didn’t buy it; Lilu grew them herself during this period." She replied, then took another one from her space equipnt.
"Grew them yourself?" Kane with a disdainful expression: "Then they probably don’t taste that good."
Seeing Kane’s expression and hearing his words, Lilu instantly got flustered: "How could they be bad, Kane hasn’t even tried them yet and starts talking nonsense here."
"Really? Then let taste one." Kane said, reaching out a hand.
Lilu directly handed over the fresh one she was holding.
He stared intently as Kane ate it and couldn’t wait to ask: "How is it? Lilu’s plants taste good, right?"
After finishing, Kane nodded: "Hmm, this one tastes good; you didn’t give the best one, right? The rest are all bad ones."
"Lilu would never do that." After saying this, Lilu started taking out her stocked fruits from the space equipnt, handing them to Kane.
Just as Kane reached out to take them, Kreya suddenly slapped his hand and glared at him.
Then she took all the fruits back and gave them to Lilu: "Don’t listen to Kane; he just wants to trick you into giving him food."
At this mont, Lilu also realized, and with a flash, she appeared on Kane’s shoulder, pulling on his ears with both hands.
Shouting loudly in her mouth, "Kane is bad! Kane is bad! I will never give you food again."
"Ah, I was wrong; let this be an exchange," Kane said, taking out a White Honey Fruit from his space equipnt and handed it to Lilu on his shoulder.
Then he also threw one to Kreya.
Kane himself doesn’t particularly like eating them, but Kreya and Lilu in the team are quite fond of these fruits, so Kane would always have so in his frozen space equipnt.
"Hee hee, then Lilu forgives you." She said, taking the White Honey Fruit and then brought out a bunch of Cloud Plum Fruits from her space equipnt, handing them to Kane.
Then fluttering her wings, she started to distribute the fruits from her space equipnt to everyone, sharing them evenly.
Eating the fruit in his hand, izike suddenly asked: "Did you grow this yourself?"
"Of course."
Hearing Lilu’s answer, izike knowingly nodded his head.
