Chapter 432: It's a big deal

"Miss, you really don't have to be so anxious."

On the way to the "accident scene", Lian Qiao was still persuading.

"It's very dangerous to operate on the glacier at night. Although I know you want to investigate for clues, it's dark at night... Even if we get to the scene, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find any traces."

"If you ask me, it would be better for you to have a good rest tonight. Wouldn't it be easier to look for clues tomorrow morning?"

"In terms of light conditions, we can indeed see some situations more clearly during the day."

Su Shixia said: "But I chose to go there at night, and I also have my own considerations."

"After all, those people from the Lanyan tribe were in trouble when they were sleeping soundly at night."

Lian Qiao didn't expect that Su Shixia had actually considered this point. After thinking about it, she felt that it made sense, so she shut up and said no more.

Fu Hu, who was standing by, was very quiet the whole time. He waited until he was close to the "accident site" before he asked:
"Miss, how should we investigate? Should we first look near the accident site and then go deeper inside, or should we go directly to the place where they disappeared?"

"Do you need to make some preparations in advance?"

"Prepare?"

Su Shixia raised her eyebrows and looked at him in confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"Didn't you say that someone might have set up some kind of magic array in advance at the place where the accident happened? Shouldn't we be on guard then?"

Fu Hu had an upright look on his face and spoke very directly.

"Miss, I remember your protective charm, it's very useful, don't you want to put it on us first?"

"I can't tell. You look tall and strong, but you're not very courageous."

Su Shixia laughed.

"Why don't you just tell me you want a protective charm? Why are you beating around the bush?"

As she spoke, she took out a few pieces of talisman paper from her sleeve and handed them to Fu Hu and Lian Qiao respectively, instructing them on where to stick the talismans in order to achieve greater effectiveness.

After Lian Qiao and Fu Hu pasted the talisman according to Su Shixia's instructions, Lian Qiao exclaimed "Huh" in surprise.

"Why do I feel like my body has become lighter and warmer? Is it my illusion?"

Fu Hu felt it carefully and shook his head.

"It's not an illusion. I feel the same way."

"It's just some of the effects of the spell."

Su Shixia said: "Defense spells are mainly used to enhance one's own resistance and reduce damage caused by the outside world."

"Strengthening yourself will make your body warmer and faster, which means 'lighter'. In addition, the talisman blocks some of the cold wind and chill, and also has the effect of preserving body temperature."

"This thing is useful, but it takes a lot of effort to make a talisman like this, so it's most cost-effective to use it when it's critical."

Su Shixia continued walking forward while explaining to them.

Realizing that Lian Qiao and Fu Hu became more nervous the closer they got to the "accident site", Su Shixia did not forget to comfort them.

"Don't worry. If the Lanyan tribe got into trouble, it was because they really encountered some sudden 'natural disaster'. The probability of such an event happening is very low. Even if we go over there, we may not run into them."

"If something happens to them, it's because someone is secretly setting a trap for them, and that's probably because they used a mysterious magic formation." "As for matters related to the mysterious magic formation... unless Ye Li himself is present, otherwise, I'm really not afraid of facing others."

As Su Shixia spoke, her eyes swept meaningfully over Lian Qiao and Fu Hu.

"Of course, protecting you two is not a problem."

Lian Qiao and Fu Hu had both seen Su Shixia's abilities, so after hearing her assurance, their nervousness relaxed a little.

They were about to bypass the iceberg and arrive at the "safe rest area" where the accident happened to the Lanyan tribe before. Lian Qiao and Fu Hu were walking in front, slightly quickening their pace and preparing to go ahead to explore the way for Su Shixia, but were pulled back by Su Shixia.

"Miss?"

Lian Qiao stopped and turned to look at Su Shixia in confusion, only to see that Su Shixia had a frown on his face, his head lowered, his eyes fixed on the thick ice beneath his feet.

"This time... I was really at the right place."

Su Shixia murmured, "I passed by here before during the day, and I didn't notice anything unusual at that time. Could it be that this thing... is only activated at night?"

Su Shixia's words made Lian Qiao and Fu Hu instantly alert. They both took up defensive postures at the first moment, guarding Su Shixia on the left and right.

"Miss, have you found any clues?"

"Ah."

Su Shixia responded in a low voice, still without looking up, her eyes fixed on the ice.

Realizing that Lian Qiao and Fu Hu had not practiced the mysterious arts and had not opened their third eyes, and therefore could not detect anything unusual, she squatted down, took out a knife from the space, and quickly drew an extremely complex magic array pattern on the ice.

After the magic circle was formed, she pressed her palm on the center of the magic circle. A faint blue light flashed in her eyes for a moment, and then she shouted in a low voice, "Show!"

Because of Su Shixia's actions, Lian Qiao and Fu Hu had been staring at the ice surface.

As Su Shixia shouted, a large area of ​​scarlet light flashed under the ice, and Lian Qiao and Fu Hu changed their expressions in shock.

After a closer look, they noticed that the scarlet light spots seemed to have life and were swimming in the sea water under the ice. Lian Qiao and Fu Hu couldn't help but gasp and asked, suppressing their shock and fear.

"Miss, what are those things?!"

"Why do they look to me like they're still alive?"

Lian Qiao's voice was tense, and if you listened carefully, you could even hear that her voice was trembling.

"They are indeed all alive."

Su Shixia said in a deep voice: "This is the 'Array Fish'."

"One or two of them won't be dangerous or destructive at all."

"However, if they appear in groups and form a formation under the interference and manipulation of external forces, they can produce the same effect as a magic circle."

Su Shixia narrowed her eyes, and her gaze became colder.

"I previously thought that someone had set up a magic circle near this camp in advance and waited for the 'right time' to activate it, and the Lanyan tribe just happened to run into their trap."

"But now it seems... it is true that they did plan ahead of time. However, taming array fish is such a big deal, it is definitely not just for such a 'safe rest area'."

"Miss, what you mean is that these... these array fish can not only devour the people in this 'safe zone' when they gather together, but also devour the people wherever they go?"

Lian Qiao felt incredible after saying this. Not only did her voice become smaller and smaller, but she also added with no confidence, "Is... is that so?"
