Chapter 107: The Pit in the Pit Corridor
It was pitch black all around, as if deprived of light, and nothing could be seen.
When Alvin started to slide down, he almost fainted from fright and let out uncontrollable screams.
This fear of weightlessness is one of the accompanying symptoms of my fear of heights.
But after shouting for half a minute, he still didn't see himself sliding to the end, and Alvin was not so nervous anymore.
After calming down a little, he tried to cast the [Entanglement Technique] to see if he could use the vines to control his sliding body.
Unfortunately, the spell failed several times in a row.
How could there be plants in this ice hole...
Alvin shook his head in self-mockery, never expecting that he would end up like this.
Others are killed as soon as they land on the ground, but I don’t know what will happen to me.
I really envy those guys who travel to the world of immortal cultivation and fly around on swords.
Not afraid of heights, and can still fly.
"What kind of damn luck do I have!
Without a cheat code and a system, he will end up being smashed into a pulp!
I coo, coo, coo..."
In the end, Alvin did not fall into a pulp, but fell into a freezing cold pool.
If ordinary creatures came here, they would immediately freeze into popsicles.
But this guy Alvin just shivered.
Alvin, who could swim, was stunned for a moment, then he swam upwards with his arms spread out.
As soon as I surfaced, I breathed in the air greedily.
After a while, Ivan's nerves began to tense up unconsciously again.
This completely lightless environment makes it difficult for people to let down their guard.
Before he could figure out his situation, a wave of brain waves that seemed to be from some creature came from a distance.
As for why it was the brain waves of some creature, it was because Alvin "heard" and understood the meaning of this wave.
[This little thing is not dead, it is really resistant to cold. ]
Remembering his encounter with Meatball in the Elf Courtyard, Alvin realized what this meant.
"who are you?"
After thinking about it, I felt that the person on the other end might not be able to understand the common language, so I began to imitate the way that brain waves were generated in my mind.
Thanks to some magical power, the [Language Proficiency] bug given to Alvin at the beginning of his journey, he quickly found the trick.
【Who are you? 】
[Hmm... That little thing can talk...]
[You are the gadget, your whole family is a gadget! ]
After falling from a high altitude and then soaking in the slightly cold ice water for a long time, Ivan is now in a very bad mood.
[It seems like it can really talk, strange...]
Alvin calmed down and thought that if he communicated with this person, he might be able to find a way to survive.
【Who are you? Where are you? 】
[Oh? Isn't this little thing of yours an elemental body? ]
Before Alvin could understand what this sentence meant, a huge light curtain appeared in front of him.
Ivan's eyes were stung by the sudden appearance of light. After he adjusted for a while and opened his eyes again, he found that the distance between the light curtain and him was very close!
Alvin stepped on the water and splashed back several meters.
[I’m not used to using vision for the first time. Hiss——little thing, are you a meat man? ]
Meat man? What the hell… Ivan complained secretly while speaking through his brainwaves.
[I am a human, a human druid. ]
[Druid? Never heard of it... It's not important. Little Meat Man, how come you didn't freeze to death...
Don't worry...let me see...oh...
The Curse of Auril... Little Meat Man... I don't know whether this should be considered lucky or unlucky for you...】
Brainwave communication is very different from verbal communication.
Language communication is a way of communication that all species have been accustomed to for hundreds of thousands of years - starting from the primitive society's use of three short, two long, and three short in courtship;
Brain waves are different. Normal intelligent creatures have never experienced this...
Even a shaman who has fully understood the soul still uses formal language when transmitting sound into the brain, rather than a so-called "concept".
Now, all these "concepts" rushed into Ivan's head, in a disorderly manner and without any order, making Ivan feel dizzy.
If I had fainted in a more normal place with my feet firmly planted on the ground, it would be fine;
What kind of situation is this? Can I get dizzy? There is water all under my feet, but Ivan said he would not get dizzy at all.
He hurriedly interrupted the continued casting of the light wall opposite.
[Stop! Stop! Stop! Let’s take turns answering each question one by one!]
[Take turns? Ask questions alternately? Hmm... this is good...]
How did you understand so much from what I said...
It doesn’t matter! I’ll go first! Who the hell are you? 】
[Impulsive little meat man...Okay, follow your rules...
Who am I? Um... I am an ice element...】
Alvin felt his legs and feet going weak, but there was nothing he could do. His weak physique made him almost unable to hold on any longer.
[Ice element? Can't you be more specific? Like what's your name or where are you from?]
[Greedy little meat man, these are two questions. I will also ask two questions this round.
Ice elementals have no names. I am the ice elemental of the North... well... I am all the living ice elementals in the North...
It's my turn, little meat man, who are you, and how did you get cursed by Auril...】
What kind of curse is this? How would I know? It's all messed up...
Although he couldn't help complaining in his heart, Alvin was still prepared to answer everything in detail, but he didn't expect that the other party's brain waves came again.
[Hmm… Hmm… I see. I see. That’s how it is. Reckless Ivan the Meatman…]
[No, I haven't said anything yet, how did you know...]
[Ha...ha...ha...Ivan, you are not very good at communicating with your consciousness...You only need one thought...to transmit countless information...This is a method unique to elemental creatures...
We call this consciousness attunement...
Next round, you ask questions...】
Consciousness synchronization? Isn't it just talking in your mind? You are being so pedantic, just to look high-end and fool outsiders, right?
In an extremely quiet environment, the thinking speed of organisms will indeed become very fast.
Good students rely on faster thinking to study hard, and Alvin relies on the infinite OS of this hard work.
[I don't understand what you mean by all the ice elements. Are you a consciousness connection center? Or something else?]
[Oh... Ivan, what does tandem mean? I don't understand this concept...
I said I am all the living ice elementals in the North. Hmm... let me put it another way...
I devoured all the ice elementals in the North... while they were still alive...】
【ha? ! 】
