152: Ice coffin, flamethrower

Qin Tian looked at the ice sculpture.

Inside was a white-haired, energetic old man.

This old man was not dead.

His eyes were wide open, staring back at Qin Tian.

And his mouth was opening and closing rhythmically.

Although no sound came out,

Qin Tian could tell he was saying:

"Sakura Country, I'm f*cking you."

Qin Tian originally thought the person frozen inside was a Sakura Country player.

But seeing the classic national curse, he was also stunned.

The 偵查 (Investigation) skill was activated.

It showed that the old man frozen inside was named Niu Potian.

He was actually a China player.

Moreover, this person's attire was a bit strange; there was no light shimmering on the clothes he wore, just like he was wearing ordinary casual clothes.

"I'm also a China player."

Qin Tian immediately revealed his identity.

"Who are you trying to fool? I don't believe you."

Niu Potian, who was frozen, did not believe Qin Tian's identity.

No one knew better than him how difficult it was to come to Sakura Country, especially to this place.

In Niu Potian's view, Qin Tian must be a Sakura Country player in disguise, trying to trick him into giving up what he held.

If the person in the ice had been a Sakura Country player, Qin Tian would have cut him down with a single strike long ago.

But since it was a China player, it was different.

And although they hadn't conversed much, Qin Tian could feel Niu Potian's hatred for Sakura Country players.

Qin Tian was also very curious about Niu Potian, who was frozen here.

Without further explanation, Qin Tian directly sent Niu Potian a team invitation.

[Player Qin Tian invites you to join the party]

Niu Potian was also surprised to receive this message.

This was a world where games merged with reality; player names were not like in games where you could choose anything.

Absurd names like Hu Tutu from Fandou Garden or Zhuangzhuang's Mom wouldn't appear.

They were all the players' real names.

Qin Tian's name, no matter how you looked at it, didn't seem like a Sakura Country player's name.

Instead, it looked more like a China player's name.

Could this person in front of him really be a China player, just like him?

With doubts, Niu Potian accepted Qin Tian's invitation.

Qin Tian didn't waste words and directly showed his battle records.

[Successfully killed Sakura Country player Miyamoto Ichiro, Killing Value +10]

[Successfully killed Sakura Country player Kameda Senichi, Killing Value +10]

[Successfully killed Sakura Country player Yamamoto Kojiro, Killing Value +10]

...

Looking at hundreds of pages of battle records, Niu Potian was instantly petrified on the spot.

Initially, one of Niu Potian's goals in coming to Sakura Country was to kill Sakura Country players.

But even he, before being frozen, had stayed in Sakura Country for a long time and had only killed about a hundred Sakura Country players.

And this person in front of him, how many had he killed?

Ten thousand?

It seemed like more than a hundred thousand.

Niu Potian now noticed that Qin Tian's name was not ordinary black.

It was so red it was almost black.

The kind of red that could no longer fade slowly with time.

Moreover, the country a player belonged to could also be seen within the party.

At this moment, Niu Potian also believed that Qin Tian had not lied to him.

Qin Tian was indeed a China player, just like him.

"Hurry, this place is dangerous."

After Niu Potian knew Qin Tian's identity, his attitude changed from before.

Thinking of the terrifying existence here, he quickly said to Qin Tian.

Qin Tian remained unmoved; he was actually a bit expectant, hoping a Boss would appear and give him some experience.

"I'll get you out first."

Qin Tian said, directly selected Niu Potian, and cast the Dispel skill.

[Dispel failed, this player has no dispellable status]

As the prompt sounded, Qin Tian's brows furrowed slightly.

He had initially thought Niu Potian was in an abnormal frozen state.

But now it seemed that was not the case.

Unable to be dispelled meant that special means were required to break through this ice.

Qin Tian began to search for items in his inventory.

He remembered that among the engineering magic items he had taken from the dwarves, there happened to be an item with this function.

"It's useless. This is the Frost Ghost King's ice coffin. You can't break it. You should leave quickly. If the Frost Ghost King discovers you later, you won't be able to leave even if you want to."

Niu Potian said to Qin Tian.

This ice coffin was extremely powerful.

So far, there had been no precedent of anyone breaking out of the coffin.

Qin Tian paid no attention, his focus entirely on the items in his inventory.

Among the numerous dwarven engineering magic items, Qin Tian found what he needed.

[Dwarven Flamethrower]

[Unmeltable ice? 1000℃ not enough? Then 10000℃]

[Can spray fierce flames after use. As the flames are extremely fierce, please be very careful when using it.]

It was still the unique description style of dwarven engineering magic items.

Qin Tian directly took out the [Dwarven Flamethrower].

Holding it in his hand, its appearance was similar to a fire extinguisher.

Qin Tian tried to use it, and flames immediately gushed out.

"Don't waste your effort. This ice coffin cannot be melted by flames. Hurry and leave. If you can return to China, help me find a person named Void Master and ask him to avenge me."

Inside the ice coffin, Niu Potian had already begun to leave his last words.

He had been trapped here for too long, relying solely on a surge of willpower.

Now that he saw Qin Tian, he spoke his last words.

The willpower that had supported him instantly disintegrated.

Niu Potian himself began to wilt, his eyes already closed.

At this moment, he felt the ice coffin was so cold.

He estimated that in a few more seconds, he would freeze to death.

Just then, a fierce flame suddenly gushed forth.

Niu Potian felt his entire body ignite.

The extremely high temperature instantly jolted him awake.

His closed eyes snapped open.

"This, this works!"

Niu Potian's eyes widened.

The unmeltable ice coffin that had trapped him was rapidly melting.

From the [Dwarven Flamethrower] in Qin Tian's hand, blue flames continuously emerged.

Wherever these blue flames landed on the ice coffin, that spot would melt.

Qin Tian also hadn't expected this thing to be so effective.

And this was only with him using half power, fearing he might burn Niu Potian to death.

If he had gone all out, he probably could have instantly melted Niu Potian along with the ice coffin.

"Alright, alright, I'll take it from here."

Niu Potian's voice came from inside the ice coffin.

Under Qin Tian's 'grilling,' the ice coffin had already melted by more than half.

If he continued to 'grill,' Niu Potian was afraid he would truly turn into a barbecue.

Moreover, he now had the ability to break open the ice coffin.

Qin Tian nodded upon seeing this and directly put away the flamethrower in his hand.

"Step back a bit, don't get hurt."

Niu Potian looked at Qin Tian, kindly reminding him.

Qin Tian had saved his life, and he didn't want to accidentally hurt Qin Tian when breaking open the ice coffin.

Although Qin Tian didn't think Niu Potian had that ability, he was too lazy to explain and simply retreated a bit, creating distance between himself and Niu Potian.

Niu Potian saw Qin Tian retreat to a safe position, let out a fierce roar, and his muscles instantly began to swell.

"Is this guy's profession Tyrant Fist?"

Qin Tian recognized Niu Potian's skill; this was Ba Quan's professional skill, [Strong Fist].
