January 23rd.

Arctic.

On an ice field, heavy snow fell.

"arrive!"

Shu Fu looked at his feet, and according to the information he had obtained before, this was it. Then, he began to dig, and a hole appeared under his feet.

One meter in diameter.

Twenty meters deep.

Whoosh!

The figure fell slowly, and Shu Fu looked calm.

At first, he could only divide some objects with little intermolecular force, such as soil, sand, etc. Later, as his mental power became stronger, he changed.

soil.

vegetable.

clothing.

.....

More and more can be cut.

now.

It is already possible to cut the ice layer, of course, that’s all. If you want to cut rocks and drill a cave in minutes, there is still a long way to go.

As for cutting metal, it's nowhere in sight.

but.

Shu Fu is already very satisfied with the current progress, and will reach it one day.

. . .

Although it can be cut, there is a distance, twenty meters at a time.

therefore.

It takes fifty times to cut to the thousand-meter depth of the star gate. This is just a small problem. In less than ten minutes, he has arrived at the position of the star gate.

As for the hole in the top of the head, it has been filled.

After digging out a not-so-small interior space.

A room appears.

Bind!

subsequently.

The teleportation guard came over and stepped forward to prepare to cross.

"Is there something on the other side?"

"ice?"

"Let me see."

Shu Fu stretched out his hand to touch it, and it was really cold. He released his mental strength to prepare for perception. In the next second, his face changed drastically, and he quickly took his hand back.

"What's the situation?" Shu Fu took a deep breath.

Just now, the mental power was released for 100 meters, and a scary picture appeared.

Corpse!

Corpse!

At least a dozen corpses were frozen on the opposite side, and many of them still retained the horror of their lives. The picture rushed into his mind in an instant, and Shu Fu was taken aback.

It's like a horror movie.

Then he quickly calmed down, it wasn't that he had never seen a dead person, it was just a little sudden.

but.

What's the situation on the other side? So many corpses.

Then, he stretched out his hand again, released his mental power, felt no more fear, and sensed upwards, and quickly confirmed the basic situation through the shock of mental power.

Surrounded by ice, you can't feel the edge.

Below, thirty meters.

Above, 180 meters are all ice, and you can't feel it any further.

. . .

nothing to say.

dig!

Like a boring machine, Shu Fu crossed the star gate and entered the field in person.

but.

Not up.

but down.

God knows what's going on above, so I took a wave first, and then quickly dug to the soil layer, where there are obvious artificial traces, such as some hardened road surfaces.

Through perception, Shu Fu judged that he was in a city.

Because in addition to the corpses, the buildings were also seen. Although the damage was serious, the foundations were still there. In addition to the corpses, there were many waste items in the ice.

Mess.

You can imagine what happened here.

---The big tsunami!

Say something.

A big tsunami is a big tsunami, how did it freeze, could it be caused by global cooling like in "The Day After Tomorrow"? God knows, we can only explore slowly.

Next, collect samples.

Send it back to the research center to analyze the technological level.

As for those corpses, Shu Fu bypassed them all.

Although Yuan is not taboo, but it is not bad, it feels weird to swallow it.

One kilometer forward.

Huh!

Found an unfallen building, nearly 900 meters high, only the bottom was buried under the ice layer, Shu Fu followed the internal layout and dug upwards.

Due to the protection of the building, the contents inside are relatively well preserved.

However, after soaking in water, the technological equipment found was seriously damaged.

"This civilization is not weak!"

"..."

"A building of 900 meters is not so easy to build."

"..."

"The building material is very special, a kind of composite material, even the refuge star does not have it."

"..."

"There are a lot of lines embedded in the wall."

"..."

"The elevator uses electromagnetic technology."

"..."

As more and more information was collected, Shu Fu was already prepared. In the vast starry sky, the civilizations he has come into contact with so far are like babies.

ten thousand.

One hundred thousand.

million.

.....

There may even be civilizations that have existed for hundreds of millions of years.

Civilizations under 10,000 years old are very few.

It may even account for less than one hundred thousandth, or even one millionth. Of course, if there are so many civilizations in the starry sky, he just wants to say.

---The newborn civilization may be the rarest existence.

---In the vast starry sky, it is normal to encounter something stronger than the earth.

correct.

Shu Fu slapped his head and almost forgot the location of the next star gate.

I was too surprised by the appearance of the corpse before, so I ignored it.

subsequently.

Return to the stargate location.

Then.

Shu Fu was dumbfounded for a while.

"what's the situation?"

"Leave me alone."

"..."

Rubbing his head, he quickly accepted all of this. It wasn't that there was no star gate and the chain was broken, but that the position of the star gate was not on this planet.

But on another planet.

not far.

in the same star system.

only.

The new situation, a bit caught off guard, is not too troublesome, I have a starship, crossing planets is not a problem, and I can fly freely in the star system.

What really matters is the stargate rules.

The earth is a civilization.

Leek Star is a civilization.

same.

So is the planet of refuge, so the stargate is on the same planet.

but.

If there is more than one life star in a star system, the star gate may appear on two planets, which is not a big problem.

The real question is... what to do if you encounter a civilization that spans the galaxy?

People have a civilization with more than one galaxy in their hands, so if I just rush to the next stargate, the distance in the middle is light-years.

moment.

The speed of light starship that I just got is not so delicious.

It seems that I still underestimated how long the road ahead is.

. . .

After recovering, Shu Fu began to think.

First, this civilization already has not weak space technology.

Second, there is more than one living star in this star system.

Third, the planet under our feet is not cold and dead, but there are still people living there.

All right!

Accept the reality, at least, this civilization does not need to travel several light years to find the star gate. If so, I have to wait on the earth for a few years.

subsequently.

Shu Fu returned to the building and continued to dig up.

Soon, the ice layer broke through.

cold!

black!

The surroundings are pitch black, the wind is biting cold, and the oxygen content in the air is very low. With just one breath, the moisture in the mouth may be instantly frozen.

I looked at the thermometer, minus one hundred and sixty-five degrees.

abnormal!

Extremely abnormal!

Even the cold snap in 'the day after tomorrow' has a limit.

In the habitable zone, it is impossible to have such cold weather. Even in nuclear winter, like the planet of refuge, it is still impossible to drop to this temperature.
