Unlike the explorers they had just encountered, Ye Feng and his group knew that this supply station called Ilitas had been abandoned five months ago.
This information was bought at a high price by Liu Laotou from a veteran explorer nicknamed "Sha Ming Lang."
Not only Xiao Xiao was puzzled, but Ling and the others also looked at Ye Feng with a hint of confusion, because coming here was Ye Feng's special request!
"Let's spend the night here tonight. I have some experiments to do!"
Ye Feng smiled slightly at them, then glanced at the watch on his wrist, and took out the heating lamp he had previously disassembled into parts and reassembled.
Under their bewildered gazes, Ye Feng took out a survival coin and inserted it into a groove after opening a metal sheet on the heating lamp.
Instantly, the entire heating lamp began to flash with a shimmering light!
"Whoa... this heating lamp can be used like this?"
Ling looked at Ye Feng with great surprise.
Like other explorers, she used to fill the fuel tank with crude oil. She never expected that the groove below the fuel tank could be inserted with arcane elemental coins.
Amidst their curious and confused gazes, Ye Feng carried the heating lamp to a higher spot, placed it down, and quietly waited.
Time ticked by, and the sky gradually darkened.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng, who was sitting on a rock flipping through Chen Jindong's notebook, shifted his attention.
The flashing frequency of the heating lamp had suddenly increased.
"Is it coming soon?"
Ye Feng stood up and looked around the sky, observing.
Xiao Xiao and the others, who were still confused, also walked over to Ye Feng's side and followed his gaze.
"Big Brother, what are you looking for?"
Xiao Xiao voiced the same confusion that she and Ling shared.
"Well... if I'm not mistaken, supplies are about to drop!"
Ye Feng nodded, glancing at the heating lamp whose flashing frequency was increasing, and said.
"Supplies?"
Xiao Xiao also looked at the rapidly flashing heating lamp, still somewhat perplexed.
Just then, the rapidly flashing heating lamp suddenly turned to a steady glow!
"Ye Feng, be careful, something big is falling on your head!"
Almost simultaneously, Ling's anxious voice rang out.
Ye Feng quickly looked up and saw a large, dark, round, and thick object, resembling a rocket launcher, plummeting towards him.
"What the..."
Ye Feng was speechless. He immediately removed the heating lamp and quickly retreated to the side with Xiao Xiao and the others.
"Bang~ Bang~ Clang~"
The large object that suddenly fell from the sky was made of metal. It heavily struck the spot where Ye Feng had been standing, piercing through the thick snow and crashing onto the rocks.
"Big... Big Brother, is that thing the supplies you said were going to drop?"
Xiao Xiao blinked her eyes, looking somewhat taken aback.
"Yes!"
Ye Feng nodded, feeling quite pleased.
Because of this, he had verified most of the notebook given to him by Chen Jindong. According to his deduction, in about an hour, a cable car carriage would appear above the summit of this supply station...
...
About 50 minutes later,
Ye Feng and his group arrived at the summit of the mountain where the Ilitas supply station was located.
"Big Brother, will another cable car carriage suddenly appear in the sky later?"
Xiao Xiao, standing at the cliff's edge with Ye Feng, seemed to understand something and asked.
"Sizzle~"
As soon as Xiao Xiao finished speaking, a crackling sound of electricity suddenly echoed.
Then, the void distorted, and a cable car carriage abruptly appeared within the group's sight.
"Bang bang bang!!"
Immediately, Ye Feng took out his Glock 18 and unleashed a barrage of fire at the carriage.
The Level 1 zombies inside the cable car carriage, unaware of what was happening, were all killed!
"Holy crap, how did a cable car carriage suddenly appear in the sky?"
"Ye Feng, how did you know a cable car carriage would suddenly appear here?"
"Ye Feng, you came to the mountaintop just to kill zombies?"
"Was it also for this reason that you carried Xiao Xiao up the mountain earlier?"
"How did you know the exact time?"
...
As soon as the gunfire from the Glock 18 ceased, Ling and Lei Jian fired a barrage of questions.
"Uh..."
Ye Feng scratched his head, "It's a long story."
He then looked at Liu Laotou, "Old Liu, you mentioned before that most of the supply stations in the depths of the Frozen Snow Domain are controlled by major powers, and they often send elite exploration teams deeper into the Frozen Snow Domain, right!"
"Yes, that's indeed the case!"
Liu Laotou nodded, "And according to reliable intelligence, these exploration teams have been sent out more frequently in the past few years!"
"Although these exploration teams claim to be searching for some rare medicinal herbs, there have always been rumors that searching for herbs is just a cover, and they have other unspeakable secrets!"
Liu Laotou added after a pause.
"I think that rumor is true!"
Ye Feng smiled slightly and continued, "The purpose of these major powers who are constantly sending elite exploration teams into the depths of the Frozen Snow Domain should be the City of Frozen Ice!"
"The City of Frozen Ice?!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Laotou, Ling, and Lei Jian's expressions changed.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing their reaction, Ye Feng frowned.
"This... Ye Feng, to be honest with you, our mission to the depths of the Frozen Snow Domain this time is to obtain a special material called Eternal Ice."
"And this Eternal Ice is said to be located in a place called the City of Frozen Ice!"
Ling looked at Liu Laotou. After seeing him nod, she spoke to Ye Feng.
"Is that so~"
Ye Feng frowned slightly and continued, "According to my conjecture, these supply points of various sizes within the Frozen Snow Domain were originally some kind of shelters."
"The cable car carriage we just saw is a vehicle that delivers survival supplies to fixed locations like these shelters at fixed times."
"And the heating lamp is an emergency beacon. In case of an emergency, it can be activated, and supplies will be dropped at the location of the heating lamp..."
"That big iron hunk just now was the supplies delivered from somewhere after I activated the heating lamp..."
"And the source of these supplies is very likely that place called the City of Frozen Ice!"
Ye Feng looked at the heating lamp, whose light had faded, and explained slowly.
"This..."
After listening to Ye Feng's words, Ling and the other two looked at each other with shocked expressions.
Because what Ye Feng said had overturned their previous understanding of the entire Frozen Snow Domain.
"Wait... wait a minute, Ye Feng, the cable car carriage we just saw, even if it's a vehicle used by your so-called City of Frozen Ice to deliver supplies,"
"how can such a large object be delivered from so far away?"
"There are no steel cables or anything like that around here!"
Ling pointed at the empty sky, puzzled.
"Look at this!"
Ye Feng did not answer immediately, but disassembled the heating lamp again and pointed to the part where he had inserted the survival coin.
