After understanding what happened, Zhang Heng said goodbye to Shen Xixi and set his phone to airplane mode, temporarily blocking all messages and calls.
Of course, he was still paying attention to the progress of the matter on the forum. Zhang Heng found that Pegasus's excitement was a little abnormal. His tone and behavior were completely different from before, so he suspected that the person behind the account was not the real Pegasus. However, Zhang Heng was a little surprised that Silver Wing hadn't come out to clarify things after so long.
In addition, rumors began to spread in the forum that Arc of Light's president, Eryue Weicheng, had been killed. For a while, everyone was in danger. Arc of Light was powerful, yet they couldn't protect their president. One could only imagine the situation the other players were in.
It was rare that Zhang Heng didn't have to worry about his own safety for the time being. He was now in Copenhagen, and he was about to board a plane to Greenland. By then, there would be no other players within a thousand miles. Even those who were lucky enough to be outside the maelstrom at the time of the incident. Otherwise, with Simon's name, the number of people targeting him would be no less than the number targeting Eryue Weicheng.
Although Eryue Weicheng's attack didn't seem like a sudden chain reaction, it was more like a long-planned decapitation operation. It was done to coordinate with the leak of his identity to push the players' already uneasy emotions to the extreme and spread the news into chaos. However, one had to admit that the person behind all this had a clear plan in mind.
Zhang Heng sensed a familiar scent from it.
Loki, the God of Lies and Mischief, was obviously involved. If Zhang Heng wasn't mistaken, these plans and arrangements were all his doing.
Loki had a long history of doing this. Previously, his agent, the woman in sunglasses, had set up the three major guilds at the auction. Now, he was just making a comeback. Even though Loki was killed by Zhang Heng in the last quest, the plan he left behind was still being carried out by someone.
Zhang Heng knew that he might have to face this guy one day, but that would happen after he returned to China. Right now, he had to focus on his trip to Greenland. This was something he had been planning for a long time. Now that the trip had come to fruition, there had to be a result.
Soon, Zhang Heng completed his transfer at Koebenhagen and took a plane from Greenland Airlines to Konkrumsvarg Airport. This was one of the two civil airports in Greenland and the international hub of Greenland Airlines. Many tourists to Greenland would stop here first.
However, even in Greenland, which was not suitable for human habitation, this place was exceptionally desolate. As early as a few decades ago, this place, which meant "Grand Fjord", was still an uninhabited area. Because it was far enough from the coast, it was not easily affected by weather changes, so it was chosen as an airport. Even so, there were only about 500 residents living in this area.
The plane landed in a desolate valley. As far as the eye could see, it was surrounded by rolling mountains. Occasionally, there would be a small patch of green vegetation that withstood the cold weather and the cold wind, stubbornly taking root in the sand and stones.
The few short red and blue bungalows on the side of the runway were basically all the buildings in the airport.
Zhang Heng followed a few European tourists and got off the plane.
It was no wonder that three-quarters of Greenland was located in the Arctic Circle. Although it was summer, the temperature in Konkrumsvarg, which was located in the midwest, was only about seven or eight degrees. The temperature in the north would be even lower.
After Zhang Heng got off the plane, he switched his phone from airplane mode to normal mode again. However, he set it to reject strange calls and messages. As soon as he left the airport, he received a call from Song Jia. She was the guide he hired for this trip to Greenland. According to her resume, she was a student who worked part-time to earn money in her free time.
"Hello, I saw that your flight has landed. How is it? Where are you now?" Song Jia asked politely in Mandarin on the other end of the phone.
"I have already left the airport."
"Is that so? Can you see me? I'm wearing a blue coat, and I'm next to a red SUV." Song Jia waved her hand as she spoke.
"Well, I can see you. I'm coming."
Zhang Heng hung up the phone, then carried his suitcase and walked to Song Jia.
The two had exchanged photos more than a month ago, so they were no strangers to each other's faces. However, Zhang Heng had to admit that Song Jia looked more beautiful than in the photos. Because she was mixed-race, she inherited the appearance of various races. Her facial features were quite exquisite, and at the same time, she was not the kind of delicate beauty that could stand up to a gust of wind. Long-term exposure to the sun made her complexion look exceptionally healthy.
The only flaw was probably the freckles on her cheeks. However, they could only be seen when looking closely. Hence, Song Jia's appearance was definitely worthy of being called a beauty.
"Welcome to Greenland. I hope you like this beautiful island."
The girl gave Zhang Heng a generous hug.
"Nice to meet you." Zhang Heng also said, putting the large suitcase in his hand on the roof of the SUV. However, when Song Jia enthusiastically wanted to put his travel bag in the back seat, Zhang Heng politely declined. Not only did it contain his passport and some cash, but it also contained game items that could be checked in.
"I'll carry this bag myself."
"Well, we are still some distance away from Nuuk. I just want you to be as comfortable as possible on the journey." Song Jia saw that Zhang Heng did not seem to have any intention of putting the travel bag in the back seat, so she did not insist. She opened the door and sat in the driver's seat.
On the other side, Zhang Heng also got in the car, but it took Song Jia some time to start the engine. She was a little embarrassed. "I borrowed this car from a friend, and I used it as a guide this time. So, I may not be very familiar with driving it."
"Well, I remember you told me that you want to buy a second-hand car to drive."
"Yes, Greenland is actually very large. It's the largest island in the world. Because I have to do research and write papers, sometimes I need to run around the island. It will be much more convenient if I have a car. To be honest, I already have a car in mind, and I've negotiated the price with the owner. All I need to do is wait for the funds to come in."
Song Jia became excited when she talked about the car that she was about to get her hands on. First, she told Zhang Heng about how she chose the car. After that, she talked about the hospitable natives on the island. Then, she talked about the unique entertainment and food here. She opened up the conversation completely.
