King of Assassins-Chapter 765 - 564 Arrival

The sunlight in the sky was ample, and the ice and snow plains were glaring white under the sun.

Looking around, everything was a vast expanse of white.

At this moment, the Arctic Continent was in a state of polar day, with no night. Especially during the day, the sunlight was particularly intense.

Ordinary people, without sunglasses, would soon suffer from snow blindness here.

Gao Xuan wasn't afraid of snow blindness, but he still wore sunglasses. He was dressed in a thin, casual outfit, completely out of place in the icy and snowy environment.

Next to him, Yun Qingshang had sensibly donned the silver full-body battle armor of the Holy Hall. Although this biochemical battle armor was standard-issue, it was extremely useful and also visually splendid.

Even ordinary people, wearing the Holy Hall's standard biochemical battle armor, could adapt to various harsh environments.

On the Beikun Icefield of the Arctic Continent, the average temperature during the polar day was minus thirty degrees.

The cold wind on the Beikun Icefield blew year-round, with an average strength of Level 5 or above.

In such a cold environment, the most important thing was wind protection, as the wind would rapidly drain body heat.

Yun Qingshang had trained into a Horizontal Training Body, with a constitution of extreme strength. Such a harsh natural environment as the Beikun Icefield had no effect on her. But she still armed herself with biochemical battle armor.

In this regard, Yun Qingshang was always cautious, never wasting a bit of her power.

Gao Xuan, however, sighed, "You're wrapped up so tightly, you can't fully experience the breath of the icefield's wind and snow."

"I don't need to experience it."

Yun Qingshang had no interest in the Beikun Icefield, even though she grew up here.

On this icefield, she had hunted ice bears and hunted her companions. Her memory of this place was all cold and slaughter.

She wouldn't deliberately avoid these memories, but had no interest in reviewing them, nor did she want to search for anything within them.

To her, the training in her youth was a nightmare. There was no value worth reminiscing about.

Gao Xuan, on the other hand, was full of interest here. He rode a very primitive snowmobile, moving over the ice and snow along the way.

Such a primitive snowmobile existed only in places like the Beikun Icefield, entirely to satisfy the needs of tourists.

After all, coming to the icefield was to see the ice and snow. Riding a hovercar to swoosh by, what's the point in that?

Gao Xuan sped on the snowmobile against the wind, while Yun Qingshang, somewhat helplessly, held him around the waist from behind.

This was Gao Xuan's firm request; Yun Qingshang didn't find it interesting at all.

The snowmobile sped across the icefield for another two hours before Gao Xuan finally stopped.

Yun Qingshang also saw clearly; in front was a large pit, with a diameter of five or six kilometers, and the center clearly subsided. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Although the deep pit was covered with thick ice and snow, some building remnants' outlines could still be faintly seen.

Yun Qingshang remained silent; this was the secret underground base where they were trained to be assassins.

Two decades have passed since then, and seeing the base's remnants again, she felt as if it were a lifetime ago.

Gao Xuan also looked at the base, seemingly lost in thought. The nuclear bombs he buried back then had tremendous power, completely destroying the base's overall structure.

Of course, a base of such a size surely still contained some things.

Gao Xuan had the Celestial Dragon Eye; despite the limitations of Source Power, he could see more than others. This was something Yun Qingshang couldn't compare to.

This underground base, after being destroyed by nuclear bombs, had been explored and cleared multiple times. Even through the snow, Gao Xuan could see the traces of these clean-ups.

The most recent clean-up should have been three years ago.

This was easy to distinguish; just by looking at the snow's depth, one could naturally estimate.

A bombed base wouldn't have anything valuable. Moreover, the base was so remote in location.

So many people being interested in the base, needless to say, were all for him.

His origin from Pegasus Star wasn't a secret. As for his rhetoric back then, it could pass off as deceit at the time.

Now, his enemies had turned into several major Evil Gods and various Noble Families.

This group of folks had immense power. His rhetoric at the time would surely be scrutinized and verified repeatedly.

Enemies could naturally discover flaws in his rhetoric.

Leaving a path invariably resulted in various traces. At that time, the Celestial Net also left numerous data.

It wouldn't be hard for enemies to find out his true origin. However, finding out his origin now was meaningless. He dominated the Alliance by power, and moral condemnation had no impact on him whatsoever.

Even so, enemies couldn't help but explore the base again and again in attempts to unearth more things.

Just by looking at the ruins of the base, Gao Xuan could see many things. He could even see wireless threads spreading from the base, stretching all the way to distant places.

This was the Source Power aura left by the opposing side at the underground base ruins. Although it's been a long time, his Celestial Dragon Eye could still see these Source Power traces.

If he wanted to, he could even trace these Source Power traces to find the individuals who entered the base.

However, Gao Xuan didn't intend to do this. It had little meaning and was a waste of time.

It was more advantageous to fish directly here; the opponents would naturally emerge.

Gao Xuan said to Yun Qingshang, "Let's camp here. Find a wind-sheltered spot."

Yun Qingshang had great operational capability; she found a wind-sheltered place beside the pit, dug a meter-deep snow pit on the ground, and set up a small tent inside.

She had a special spatial marvel, allowing her to carry many things with her.

Tent, charcoal grill, sleeping bag, drinking water, various foods, everything was provided.

This was all at Gao Xuan's request; he felt that coming out was mainly for a vacation to relax, so, of course, all sorts of equipment and supplies had to be fully equipped.
