Kuna opened her eyes, and there was still a look of horror in her eyes. When she saw Zhang Heng, her body trembled.
But she controlled it well, and no one but Zhang Heng saw the slight change in her expression.
Alesia tried to call out to her teacher with a trembling voice. Kuna reached out her hand and gently touched Alesia's hair.
Looking at Kuna's haggard appearance, Alesia felt a lump in her throat. "Your legs, they are all my …"
"No, it's not your fault. I lost control," she looked at Zhang Heng again. "I have to thank you, young man. You saved my student and me. I'm ashamed to say this, but you warned me before."
"You're welcome. I just did what I had to do at that time," Zhang Heng said lightly.
And Alesia turned her head to thank him again. "You said that you would only lend him to us for three days, and you want him to take you to the city under the ice …"
"It's okay. Something happened in the middle, and I'm thinking about whether I should go to the city immediately," Zhang Heng said. "And it's more important to save people. I can find the city under the ice through him." Zhang Heng continued, "And it's more important to save people.
Many people participated in the scientific expedition. Although some died along the way, many survived except for Dr. Baker and the guide, Satchus. Even if Kronos was not taken into consideration, there were still the retired soldiers who obeyed him. Of course, Zhang Heng actually had the easiest way, and that was to look for his adoptive parents.
The two of them were also members of the expedition team, and they had entered the city under the ice themselves. Zhang Heng didn't want to get them involved unless it was absolutely necessary. In fact, after knowing the general direction of the expedition team, he could also search in that direction. With the connection between him and the owner of the city under the ice, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find the destination.
"Is it convenient to tell me what you saw in his dream?" Zhang Heng asked, pointing to Satchus's body.
"Of course, with the help of my little elf, Gummok, I entered his dream. Before this, I had never seen such a scene. There was madness and killing everywhere. I could see that his mind had been completely distorted, but from those disjointed fragments, I was still able to see some things.
"I saw the fierce battle in the art museum. I saw Ali standing together with him, and they were talking about something. Then Zhang Heng appeared, and Ali said he went down to help, but I didn't see him again. Other than that, I also saw the secret ritual of the fanatics. They placed the kidnapped victims on the ground, surrounding a black well.
"Then, they cut open their chests and let their blood flow to the well. However, they didn't let them die immediately. They let them scream to their heart's content, witnessing their own deaths. Because of fear, they had a nervous breakdown. The fanatics surrounded the victims and the well, took off all their clothes, twisted their bodies, and sang and danced.
"With all due respect, it wasn't a dance at all. It was just a group of people randomly twisting their bodies according to their own whims. It looked extremely ugly, and beast-like roars came from their throats from time to time. However, I noticed that there seemed to be something in the black well. I wanted to take a closer look, but at that moment, the fanatics suddenly stopped moving and looked at the place where I was hiding." After that, they seemed to have received some kind of order.
"After that, they seemed to have received some kind of order and rushed at me together. I wasn't too afraid at the time because I knew that it was just a dream and they couldn't hurt me. Based on my previous experience of entering dreams, as long as my emotions fluctuated violently, I would leave the target's dream. But this time, the situation was completely different. They caught me, and I couldn't break free. Then, they dragged me to the well.
"A person who looked like the leader walked towards me, cut open my chest with a knife, and placed me with the sacrifices. I felt … a lot of pain, and my ears were screaming, but I didn't wake up. At that time, I also realized that something might have gone wrong. Then, as their ritual continued, I finally saw what was in the well."
"Did you see what it looked like?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Unfortunately, I only took a quick glance, and I didn't get a good look. But there's no doubt that the thing inside was not human."
Even without the Oath Ring, Zhang Heng could tell that the old shaman wasn't telling the truth. When he thought about the way Kuna looked at him, Zhang Heng guessed that what Kuna saw in the well had something to do with him. However, Kuna chose to hide it. Of course, it wouldn't do the old shaman any good, but at least it would prevent the rest of the tribe from viewing Zhang Heng as an enemy.
Alicia was still fine. After all, Zhang Heng had saved her life before. But if the others knew that the evil spirit in the well had his face, even if Kuna came forward to explain that the two of them had nothing to do with each other, the Inuit in the tribe would probably be wary of him. And what happened here wouldn't just stay here. Soon, the news would spread among the Inuit, and it would become even more difficult for him to move around in this ice field.
"What happened after that?" Alicia asked.
"Gemok was very afraid of the well, but when he saw that I was being bullied, he boldly rushed into the well. I knew that he was no match for the thing in the well, so I asked him to come back," Kuna said.
Recalling what she said before, "Gemok, come back!", it should be something that happened at that time.
"Did you see anything else?" Alicia continued to ask.
"No." The old shaman shook his head.
The others might not have thought much about it, but Alicia was stunned when she heard it. She clearly heard Kuna say, "No, no! This is not the future! You can't … destroy everything! "But Kuna didn't mention it at all.
If it were Ole who was straightforward, he would have asked his teacher if she had forgotten something. But Alicia didn't say that. She just nodded and said, "I'll go find a doctor to help you reconnect your broken bones."
"Don't worry about this," Kuna said. "I want to talk to Zhang Heng," she paused and added, "alone."
"Okay, then let's go out first," Alicia and Ole said after looking at each other.
Song Jia, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed. After translating the sentence, she asked Kuna, "What about me? Should I stay?"
"Thank you, child. You can also go out first. I have a way to communicate with him," Kuna said gently.
