Chapter 576: Baai Mountain



This active volcano has lost its temper and is as quiet as a girl. Although this mountain is less than 200 meters high and a large part of the crater is missing, no one dares to look at this volcano.

As long as it is an active volcano, it is one of the most terrifying things on the planet. It is quieter than anything else when it is not erupting, but once it erupts, it is more violent than anything else and no one can afford to provoke it.

Moreover, although this volcano is now quieter than the most quiet girl, compared with the lush mountains around it, the vegetation on this mountain is sparse, especially near the crater, where not even a tree can be seen. It is as bare as Ge You.

You have to know that this is a real tropical area. The equator is more than 500 kilometers north of this mountain. However, there is no vegetation on this mountain, which forms a sharp contrast with the lush greenery of the two extinct volcanoes around it. This is enough to show how terrifying this mountain is.

The dirt road bypasses the foot of Mount Tavuru, makes a big turn and continues forward.

A few people stood at the foot of Mount Tavuru and quietly admired this terrifying volcano for a while before continuing to move forward. They soon arrived at a relatively flat grassland along the dirt road.

This grassland is located at the foot of Mount Baai and is very flat. There are some wooden houses and tents on the grassland. Obviously, this place has been turned into a gathering point by tourists and locals.

"More than ten years ago, after the Tavuru volcano calmed down, some tourists, with the cooperation of local people, established a tourist gathering point here. Whether they come to admire the Tavuru volcano or Mount Pabai, they will take a break here before continuing their journey. We can park our bikes here, but we can't ride them from here."

Led by Howard, they came to a large wooden house at the edge of the grassland. A man in his fifties walked out of the house. Judging from his skin color, it was clear that he was a local.

The local seemed very happy when he saw Captain Howard. He first gave Howard a warm hug and then began to talk to him enthusiastically in the local language.

After the two talked for a while, Howard came back and explained, "This is my neighbor from back then. We can leave the car here and he'll take care of it."

After parking the car, everyone said hello to the local man and then started climbing the mountain under the leadership of Howard.

Although this Baai Mountain is the second highest mountain on the Gazer Trail, second only to the extinct volcano in the north, it is not difficult to climb. The slope is very gentle, and there are many paths on it that have been trampled by tourists. They each hold a western stick and walk up along the path. They only need to pay attention to the occasional snakes and some insects, and there is no other difficulty.

Howard picked some unknown wild flowers from the roadside as he walked. When he was almost at the top of the mountain after more than 20 minutes, he already had a large bunch of wild flowers in his hand.

"My grandfather's tomb has long been buried by volcanic ash, and now the exact location cannot be found. So every time I go back to Rabaul over the years, I climb this mountain to pay tribute to my grandfather, and at the same time pay tribute to the buried Rabaul. There are too many memories of me here."

Everyone then understood why Howard was collecting these wild flowers on the road.

The top of the mountain was soon under everyone's feet. However, the top of the Ba'ai Mountain was not very big, only about 100 meters long and 70 meters wide, and the center of the top was slightly concave, and the surrounding edges were slightly higher than the center.

Obviously, this is also a volcano, but it has been dormant for who knows how many years, and the original crater has been almost filled with ash and soil.

After reaching the top of the mountain, Howard went to the northwest corner of the mountain alone, from which he could overlook the entire Rabaul.

However, Yang Jing and his companions did not follow them, but walked towards the southeast edge of the mountain top.
