48 Hours a Day

Zhang Heng did not wake up on time at 0:00 Beijing time, which is not good news for him.

Because this means that his time-stop ability may not be fully effective for the thing in the city under the ice, and this discovery will undoubtedly affect his next plan.

Zhang Heng wanted to visit the city under the ice, but of course he was not blindly obsessed with it. Whether it was the story told by Sarchus or the warning from Nyarlatotep, both said that there was How dangerous.

And Zhang Heng’s biggest reliance is his ability to stop. In his original plan, he planned to find the city under the ice first, and then wait until an extra 24 hours to arrive before going down. As for entering, he will investigate and leave quietly. , To find a way to solve the huge figure in the palace depends on the specific situation at the time to choose.

But now he probably needs to rethink this trip to the ice field.

In addition, he had a nightmare on the first night of his arrival in Greenland. This is probably not a good sign. Zhang Heng has already met Dr. Baker and Sarchus, both of whom had participated in the scientific expedition 18 years ago. , And they began to be troubled by nightmares on their way to find the city under the ice.

After returning, the situation has not improved, but has become more and more serious. Even though both of them are simple and simple, try to avoid contact with the outside world, and stop investigating, they are still increasingly haggard and eventually die and go crazy.

Zhang Heng is now beginning to understand some of the torture that the two of them have suffered over the years. It was clear that he had been asleep for more than ten hours in the previous sleep, but Zhang Heng did not feel how much his mental and physical strength had recovered. , Almost the same as before going to bed, and also sweating.

This is because his feelings have basically disappeared, otherwise the dreamlike scenes in the dreams would be enough to put his spirit under pressure.

After Zhang Heng got up, he took a shower in the bathroom and washed away the sweat sticking to his body. After halfway through the wash, he heard the doorbell from downstairs, and more than one sound, actually in these two minutes During the period of time, the door bell has almost never stopped, one after another, it seems very rapid.

So Zhang Heng had to wrap a bath towel and go downstairs to open the door first.

As a result, I saw Songjia, Alessia, and Ole standing outside the door. Ole was wearing a bandage and holding the baseball bat in his hand, while Alessia put a hand in it. In his pocket, he looked alert.

Zhang Heng opened the door, and Alessia almost subconsciously drew a pistol from her pocket. When she saw that the person in front of him was Zhang Heng, she breathed a sigh of relief and put the gun back.

"I called you several times and sent many messages. You didn't reply. I thought that something happened to you. I was so anxious that I almost didn't call the police, but Alessia stopped it. "Miss Translator said.

"Oh, I just woke up, and I haven't had time to look at the phone." Zhang Heng replied, and at the same time turned sideways and let the three of them into the house.

After that, Zhang Heng took five minutes to finish the half-bath, put on his clothes, went back to the bedroom and took out his mobile phone. He saw a dozen missed calls and about 20 new messages, most of them All come from Songjia.

"Alessia and Ole contacted me, saying that they were ready to set off and took Sarchus back to the tribe, and asked if you want to go with them." Songjia said.

Zhang Heng had indeed promised to lend Sarchus, who had gone mad, to two Inuit for a period of time, but only for three days, so Alessia and Ole could not wait to bring Sarchus back. The Horde, they also hope to get news of the lost holy artifacts from Sarchus.

"Is the matter at the Art Museum finished?" Zhang Heng asked. Last night he created more than 30 corpses there. In addition, many precious exhibits were destroyed during the fight. Today the Art Museum wants Normal opening is unlikely, and Zhang Heng doesn't want to attract the attention of the police and cause unnecessary trouble, so Alessia and Ole are needed to deal with this problem.

Of course, they are just young people after all. It is probably the first time they saw blood that night. They must have no experience. Fortunately, there are their respective tribes behind them, and the two did not live up to Zhang Heng’s expectations of them, and they contacted overnight. The elders in the tribe told them what happened in the art museum.

After an emergency discussion between the two tribes, a team was sent to take over the follow-up work.

So Alessia and Ole were able to rush back to the tribe immediately after dealing with their injuries, and went to find Alessia's teacher Kunayu.

Alicia said, "I also told the teacher that you arrived in time to save us last night. She welcomes you to our tribe as a guest, and if you really plan to find that city under the ice, we Can provide you with the best guide in the tribe. With him, you will never have to worry about getting lost on the ice sheet."

After Songjia translated Alessia’s words, Zhang Heng also said, “I’m very grateful for your teacher’s kindness, but the guide is no longer needed. You have also heard the story told by Sarchus. You should know that the closer you get to the ice When you go to the city, the spirit of ordinary people is more likely to be affected, and this impact is likely to be lifelong, and it will become more and more serious over time, so I am enough alone. In addition, I have not Make an expedition."

"It's okay, you can come to us if you need it, not just the tribe of Alessia, but also my tribe." Ole also patted his chest, "When my injury is healed, I can also talk to you. Let's go together, we have been looking for that evil spirit for a long time."

Zhang Heng knew that his warning might not have had any effect. Some things could not be clearly understood even if he did not experience it personally. So Zhang Heng didn't say much, turned his head and looked at Songjia who was aside, "Help me again. Let me do a few days of translation, I can pay you five times your salary."

After leaving the bar last night, Zhang Heng also talked with Song Jia about salary. However, the translator at that time had been dropped by Nyarlatotep. Therefore, the agreement reached before could naturally not be counted. Zhang Heng had to Talk to Songjia again.

The translator seems a little hesitant. After all, no one wants to be involved after experiencing the things last night, but Songjia also knows that if he is carrying a burden here, Zhang Heng will not find a suitable new translator for a while. So in the end, I decided to finish the last post and go to the tribe of Alessia with Zhang Heng.
