The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Chapter 401

: Valley Bottom

For Lothar, life on the Howling Abyss was very difficult.

Although neither the Frost Guard nor Lissandra appeared to kill him, Lothar now felt that he was not much different from being dead.

He couldn’t call Zoe anymore.

This is something that has never happened before. In the past, whenever Lothar called Zoe, that star-like girl would always suddenly appear behind him and play new pranks on him.

But no matter what Lothar called this time, Zoe didn’t show up.

Lothar understood that he was trapped.

Now he can neither go up to the rift, nor can he jump off the bridge, and he can’t open the way back to Frostguard Fortress. Even if he goes back, he will definitely be caught and executed.

Lothar also specifically asked Gregor if there was a way to leave, but the ghost still didn’t give him a good face and didn’t ask anything.

In desperation, Lothar asked Wright if there was a way to leave, and Wright actually said yes.

He showed Lothar a device about the height of a person, which he called “Rocket”.

According to Wright, this rocket can send them to the sky, but it is a one-off, and when Wright designed it, he only considered his own weight. With the addition of a child like Lothar, he should still be able to fly, but they There is also a giant fat man beside him.

Wright also said that if he didn’t dig enough Zhenbing, he wouldn’t leave.

So going around, Lothar still has to get Zhenbing first.

Lothar sat on the edge of the bridge, staring at the abyss under the bridge. Every time he stared at the bottom of the rift, he felt a feeling of being sucked in.

He has been on the bridge for several days. Although the heartless Gragas is not in a hurry, Lothar lives like a year every day.

He is not like Wright, he does not have a few years of effort toSpend here, he must go back.

“Lothar!” Wright’s shout suddenly sounded behind him. Next to the old man was Gragas with a red face. It seemed that he ran to the other side of the bridge to steal Gregor’s wine again. Lothar was caught by the bridge this morning. The earth-shattering curses from the other end woke me up.

“Lothar, do you really want to do this?” Wright looked at Lothar worriedly, “This is too risky.”

“There’s no other way. This is the only way to dig into Zhenbing.” Lothar jumped back onto the bridge. “Have you finished your device yet?”

“It’s done…but…” Wright hesitantly took out a roll of straps from his sleeve, with many buckles and cables installed on it, “I made it temporarily, I’m not sure if it’s really reliable, It hasn’t been tested yet.”

“You have to try, and my weight is the most suitable. How to do this thing?” Lothar asked.

“This set of equipment can tie you to the rope, and the counterweight below will help you keep your balance. First, you need to put on the protective clothing. I changed the size of the protective clothing to prevent you from directly touching the true ice.” Wright took out a head Wearable small device, “I also got this so you can talk to me remotely, try it.”

Lothar put on a thick dress that covered the whole body. Only the eyes had a piece of glass to see the outside, and the other parts were tightly sealed. I heard Wright said that this was when he used to do chemical experiments. wear. Then, with the help of the little robot Jifusi, he put on the locks, binding his shoulders, waist and thighs firmly.

Lothar then put the communication device on his head, and Wright’s voice really came out from the small metal block stuffed into his ear.

“You are too good. You can make so many things in such a short time.” Lothar admired Wright sincerely. Even the most outstanding blacksmith in Avarosa would take several days just to make a single sword.

“Haha, it’s just a small skill.” Wright rubbed his nose embarrassingly. “You are very smart and bold. If possible, I really want to bring you back to Piltover to learn technology.”

“Okay, it’s a deal.” Lothar said with a smile.

With the help of Wright and Gifuss, the lock on Lothar’s body was connected to the hook lock of the generator, and he wanted to use this generator to descend to the depths of the rift valley.

“Guragas, you have great strength. Remember, if I ask you to pull me up, you must pull me up quickly.”

“Don’t worry! Leave it to me! Hiccup!” Gragas burped with a strong smell, which made Wright, an old man, almost faint.

Looking at Gragas quite worriedly, Lothar stood on the edge of the bridge, looked at the deep darkness under the bridge, and took a deep breath: “Let me go down.”

With the whirring of the windmill, the pulley of the generator started, slowly lowering Lothar to the bottom of the bridge.

Lothar raised his head and took a last look at the bridge above him, and he froze for a moment.

Although the top of the bridge is already a bit dilapidated, and you can still see very old traces, it is considered smooth anyway.

But the underside of the bridge is completely different.

There are potholes everywhere, as if they have been bitten by countless bugs, showing a distorted shape.

“Is it the wind in the rift that eroded it into this?” Lothar thought it was wrong. This couldn’t explain why the top of the bridge was still normal.

Could it be that there is something in the Rift Valley that corrodes the bottom of the bridge into such a state.

Just looking at the bottom of the bridge gave Lothar a feeling of nausea in his heart, so he had no choice but to stop looking and let himself concentrate on thinking about Zhenbing.

The zipline slowly took Lothar deep into the valley, and the wind became weaker and weaker as he went down. The sharp wind sound like the woman crying was gone, replaced by an unspeakable silence.

Lothar turned on the lamp on the belt around his waist, and a faint bright yellow halo appeared in front of him.

“This thing is really powerful.” Lothar was once again amazed at such things as technology. The light emitted by the waist lamp is stable and bright, not at all dim like torches and kerosene lamps, and will be blown out by the wind .

Lothar kept descending. He wanted to illuminate the rock walls on both sides of the rift, but it seemed that because the distance was too far, no matter where the light turned, it could only illuminate darkness.

“How is the situation in Lothar?” Wright’s voice came from his ears, and there was a lot of noise, which should be the sound of the wind on the bridge.

“I’m fine, but I can’t see anything. How long will it last?”

“More than half of the rope has gone down, and you should be at the bottom in a while.”

As Wright said, Lothar quickly saw the ground.

Or should I say, the ice surface.

The light from the waist lamp was reflected on the ice, and it was shining brightly. Lothar couldn’t help squinting his eyes: “Wright, I’ve seen the bottom, slow down.”

“clear.”

Lothar slowly landed on the ice. As soon as his feet touched the ground, a chill that penetrated into the bone marrow surged up from the soles of his feet.

“This is…” Lothar knelt down and touched the ice surface with his hands. Even though he was wearing thick protective clothing, he could still feel the tingling coldness from his hands, “This is true ice!”

Lothar looked around in shock. The ice surface under his feet could not be seen from the outside: “Could it be…”

Wright’s voice came from his ears: “What’s the matter, what did Lothar find?”

“Don’t be intimidated when you say it.” Lothar swallowed, “The ground below is full of pure ice.”

“Sure enough! Just as I guessed! This is a True Ice vein!” Wright said excitedly, “Now there is hope for large-scale mining!”

“Don’t be so optimistic, I don’t know how to dig it out yet, Zhenbing is harder than steel.” LotharWalking around, the ice surface is very flat, and it is basically confirmed that it is all pure ice, without any impurities.

“As long as you know that the bottom is full of pure ice, you don’t need to prepare [resources’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2?. 0′. 5,, 8″5. ; 6 The correct mining method is easy to handle. Wright laughed loudly, “When I go back to Piltover and bring in a few hex pump cutters, I can dig it out.” Alright, Lothar, I’ll let Gragas pull you up first. ”

“Wait, don’t worry, I’ll take a look.”

Losa closed her eyes and called to Zoe in her heart: “I have already found Zhenbing, why haven’t you appeared yet?”

After praying vigorously three times, Lothar opened his eyes.

“Still not here… Did something happen?” Lothar thought regretfully.

Just as he was about to ask Wright to take him up, there was a burst of light from the soles of his feet.

A burst of faint purple light.

Lothar looked down.

Under the ice, a huge one-eyed eye is watching it.
