The shock-absorbing seats in the cabin played a significant role, but the feeling of weightlessness and turbulence was still quite unpleasant.
Instead of being afraid, Hong Yuan excitedly gripped the seatbelt buckle and shouted, "This is much more exciting than the simulated weightlessness chamber in the academy! This military aircraft is so sturdy, it won't fall apart no matter how much you toss it around!"
An Changqing sat down next to Su Yuehe, reaching out to protect the edge of her chair, his brows furrowed.
Yin Chen sat on the other side, holding the short staff inlaid with frost crystals in one hand. Pale blue spiritual energy flowed from the tip of the staff, forming a thin heat-insulating barrier around everyone.
Long Ao, sitting in the back row, opened his eyes. He looked at the chaotic airflow outside the window, crossed his arms, and appeared completely unconcerned.
Only Chen Guan leaned back in his chair, his expression unchanged, and he even had the energy to look after his own leopard.
Thanks to his father's "luxury mansion" behind him, he was completely unfazed, and this level of airflow was no challenge for him.
Sensing An Changqing's distracted care for her, Su Yuehe gently shook her head, indicating that he didn't need to worry; Su Yuehe's logic remained clear.
"Changqing, I'm fine. This magnetic field is not only interfering with electronic devices, it's also suppressing the mental sea of the superhumans. You should have felt it too; the flow of spiritual energy is much more sluggish than usual."
Yin Chen looked at the faintly flickering light at the tip of the staff and gave an affirmative answer: "That's right. My Frost Barrier consumes twice the spiritual power as usual. The environment here is very unfriendly to elemental ability users."
This discovery made him look rather unwell.
Oh no, it seems like I've become the worst player.
How could he possibly accept this?
Just then, a violent tremor came from the fuselage, followed by a huge roar from the landing gear rubbing against the hard ice surface.
The transport plane glided a long distance across the ice field before finally coming to a stop with a screeching sound of brakes.
The cabin lights flickered a few times and then went out completely, leaving only the emergency indicator lights emitting a faint red glow.
The pilot's weary voice came through the cockpit loudspeaker.
"Everyone, we have successfully made an emergency landing, but the bad news is that the outside temperature is minus forty-five degrees Celsius, the spiritual engine is completely overloaded, and the communication equipment is completely paralyzed. Until the blizzard stops, this aircraft will not be able to provide any power for return. I can only stay in the cabin and try to restart the system."
"But don't worry, I have two more airplanes in my storage ring that everyone can use."
"Thank you for your hard work. Please stay inside the aircraft to maintain the temperature and do not go outside."
Although the pilot was also a superhuman, he was not very strong, and the cold air outside posed a significant threat to him.
Hong Yuan was the first to jump up, lifting the hundred-pound double-edged axe with one hand. The icy blue halo on the axe blade was particularly eye-catching in the dimly lit cabin.
"Finally, I can stretch my muscles."
She let out a long sigh, clearly itching to get out there and show off her skills.
The emergency airlock in the cabin began to operate, and the heavy metal doors slowly slid open to both sides.
The polar blizzard was like a roaring beast, with icy winds pouring into the interior.
The temperature dropped sharply, and a layer of white frost immediately formed on the metal surfaces inside the cabin.
Yin Chen waved his short staff, erecting a light blue barrier at the hatch, blocking the fiercest wind.
Long Ao tightened his collar and was the first to step out of the hatch. His feet landed on the thick ice, making a dull thud.
Chen Guan walked slowly behind, the bitter cold posing no threat to him.
The black panther shook its fur, even finding the outside air fresher than the cabin air. As a native beast of the North, it was naturally resistant to the cold.
An Changqing followed Su Yuehe downstairs.
This vast ice field is surrounded by rolling white snow, where the sky and the earth have merged into one, making it impossible to distinguish between clouds and snow.
"The communication devices have completely lost signal."
An Changqing looked at the red light flashing on his wrist, then turned to look around. The howling wind and snow drowned out all the noise.
Su Yuehe took out her tablet, and the positioning dots on the screen were jumping wildly.
"The magnetic field disturbance is even more severe than in mid-air; we are now completely blind."
Hongyuan slung the axe over her shoulder and looked around: "What's so difficult about this? Just pick a direction and go, chop down whatever you see."
Yin Chen walked calmly through the wind and snow, his white trench coat covered by a thin layer of frost shield, making him look as if he had blended into the world.
"Blindly expending physical energy in extreme environments is a desecration of the laws of survival. What do you think, Long Ao?"
Long Ao glanced at his smiling face and silently retracted his earlier assessment that Yin Chen was more pleasing to the eye: "If you have no direction, just stay where you are and wait for the storm to pass."
Su Yuehe's voice trembled slightly as she struggled against the oppressive cold on her body; her condition was not much better than Yin Chen's.
"The strong magnetic storms and blizzards in the North can last anywhere from three days to half a month. We don't have that much time to waste."
A brief silence fell over everyone.
The power of nature was on full display at this moment, and even these gifted superhumans appeared incredibly small on the vast ice plain.
This is precisely the moment when the coffin comes into play.
He stood on a slightly raised snowdrift, the wind whipping the stray hairs across his forehead.
The environment here didn't feel oppressive to him at all; instead, it gave him a strange sense of familiarity, and the ash energy within him desperately wanted to escape.
"There's no need to stay put." Chen Guan's voice pierced through the howling wind and reached everyone's ears.
All eyes instinctively turned to him.
Chen Guan raised his hand and pointed to the depths of the snowstorm to his right.
"The source of the interference is over there, about thirty kilometers away."
An Changqing looked in the direction Chen Guan pointed, and in his vision, there was only endless darkness and white snow intertwined.
"Chen Guan, can your senses penetrate this level of wind and snow?"
He wasn't questioning anything, just a little surprised.
This is way too much!
An Changqing never imagined that he would say such a thing one day, and a sense of absurdity crept into his heart.
However, Chen Guan was indeed the most overpowered existence he had ever seen; those of his age simply couldn't compete with him.
Chen Guan didn't explain much, simply saying, "Just come with me."
The cheetah let out a deep roar and was the first to follow its master.
This will be a perfect opportunity for it to show its loyalty.
Hongyuan immediately followed, excitedly swinging her axe: "See that? Now that's a real man! Let's go, let's go! Chen Guan, lead the way. I'll cover the rear. Anyone who dares to block our way, I'll chop them in half!"
Yin Chen nodded slightly, having no doubt about Chen Guan's judgment.
The light at the tip of the staff brightened slightly, expanding the shield's range to include Su Yuehe and An Changqing.
"Now that the scouts have provided the exact coordinates, let's set off. Keep formation and don't fall behind."
An Changqing looked at Yin Chen. Although they hadn't had much contact before, he could sense that Yin Chen and he had received the same education, and even their subconscious commands were exactly the same.
The howling wind, carrying large clumps of snow, pelted the small team struggling to make its way across the icy plain.
The outside world was completely dominated by white; the gale whipped up ice shards from the ground, which lashed people's faces like sharp blades.
