Chapter 2599 - 1180: First Divine Ruins, Endless Contamination!

Chapter 2599: Chapter 1180: First Divine Ruins, Endless Contamination!

After flying for more than ten hours, the military transport plane arrived over Antarctica.

Due to the harsh environment and turbulent air, the plane was frequently jolted, but fortunately, a red light came into view!

That was the beacon of Jiuzhou Scientific Research Station’s military airport. Seeing the red light meant a landing could soon be made.

Today, the sky was dusted with small snowflakes, which for Antarctica, already counted as quite good weather.

The plane transporting Xia Hongmian and Lin Baici naturally selected Jiuzhou’s top pilots.

Half an hour later, the plane landed on the runway, and after a brief taxi, it came to a stop.

"Let’s go!"

Xia Hongmian stood up.

The major who was also seated in the cabin had already proactively opened the cabin door and saluted Xia Hongmian and Lin Baici.

Whoosh!

Before Lin Baici could exit, a cold current mixed with wind and snow swept into the cabin, making it hard to keep one’s eyes open.

Once down, looking around, the entire world was a vast field of white, evoking a sense of desolation and isolation.

Signs of life here were exceptionally scarce.

"Achoo!"

Xia Hongyao rubbed her nose: "Sis, should we have come dressed in winter gear?"

"..."

Lin Baici glanced at the high ponytail, thinking, Did you just realize?

"Are you cold?"

Xia Hongmian countered.

The reception staff at the scientific research station were already waiting here.

"Not cold!"

With Xia Hongyao’s enhanced physique, she was certainly not cold: "But shouldn’t we have a bit of reverence for Antarctica?"

"Or perhaps, isn’t it proper to maintain some ceremonial feel?"

After all, this is Great Antarctica, the coldest place on Earth.

"You can change into winter clothes!"

After conversing with the reception staff, Xia Hongmian boarded the snow vehicle.

The three headed to the scientific research station.

Jiuzhou’s national strength is formidable, so the station’s facilities were excellent, and there was an abundant supply of living materials.

If it were a sunny day, living here might be quite enjoyable.

After all, the scenery here is truly unique.

If it were ordinary people who had traveled such a long way, they’d be exhausted by now, but not Xia Hongmian and Lin Baici.

After a short two-hour rest, they were ready to depart.

"Sis, can’t I really go?"

Xia Hongyao looked pleadingly at Xia Hongmian, like a seal waiting to be fed.

"No, you can’t!"

Xia Hongmian refused decisively: "Your task is to meet Bai Ci and protect him!"

"Alright then!"

Xia Hongyao could only wave her hand tearfully, watching as her sister and Little Linzi drove the snow vehicle into the wind and snow.

Soon, their figures disappeared over the horizon.

...

Lin Baici sat in the passenger seat, staring ahead.

Gurgle! Gurgle!

His stomach was growling!

The hunger felt like a swarm of ants gnawing at him, making him very uncomfortable.

In fact, as soon as the plane reached Antarctic skies, Lin Baici started feeling hungry. Now, with the snow vehicle moving forward, he grew increasingly famished and desperately wanted to eat something to sate his hunger; otherwise, it was unbearable.

Xia Hongmian wasn’t fond of chatting, nor was Lin Baici, so the atmosphere inside the car was very silent.

After six hours, the wind and snow intensified.

"Minister, how about I drive? You take a rest?"

Lin Baici knew Xia Hongmian shouldn’t be tired, but driving himself was an expression of attitude.

"Feeling bored?"

Xia Hongmian chuckled lightly: "Take a nap; once we’re in God’s ruins, you won’t have the chance!"

Ten hours later, a blizzard struck.

The wind howled, and snowflakes as big as palms pounded against the windshield, as if they could overturn the snow vehicle.

In all the land, only this sound rampaged.

Especially knowing this is the uninhabited Antarctic Continent, even someone like Lin Baici, with nerves of steel, felt a sense of discomfort!

It bred a feeling of being abandoned by the world!

Suddenly!

The snow vehicle accelerated and surged, starting to sway left and right like an angry bull.

Even with the seatbelt on, Lin Baici was tossed around.

Xia Hongmian repeatedly touched the brake lightly to try and slow down, but it was no use.

"It’s rule pollution!"

Xia Hongmian focused on the front.

"Pollution?"

Lin Baici immediately surveyed the surroundings.

Only a blizzard, no dark mist, right?

Hold on!

Is this Divine Ruins different from the others?

"Get ready to jump!"

Xia Hongmian was extraordinarily decisive: "I’ll count to three!"

Lin Baici quickly unbuckled the seatbelt and opened the car door.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Looking at the terrain ahead, when the snow vehicle charged to a relatively flat area, Xia Hongmian shouted immediately: "Jump!"

Swoosh!

Lin Baici teleported, leaving the snow vehicle, appearing in the air, and then landed steadily on the ground.

Xia Hongmian also teleported, so even though they jumped from the car, their posture was extremely graceful, without a hint of disarray!

Without a driver, the snow vehicle should have stopped, but it didn’t, continuing forward until disappearing into the blizzard.

Soon, the two gathered together.

"Minister, I’ve heard about devices not working inside God’s ruins, but never a car going berserk?"

Lin Baici inquired.

"This place is different!"

Xia Hongmian gazed into the depths of the blizzard: "I should say that just now, that snow vehicle had already been polluted!"

"Huh? So fast?"

Lin Baici was shocked; polluted into a Taboo things so quickly, what would be the terrifying radiation dose emitted by the god here?

"The blizzard’s range, compared to when I first came seven years ago, has expanded considerably!"

Xia Hongmian mused.

If it were still like seven years ago, the snow vehicle would have needed to drive a full day and night to reach the edge of the First Divine Ruins!
