The words spoken through the communication device startled Xia Wanyi, who was extremely anxious.
But looking at the two people who were in a straight line, she instantly understood what Hong Fan meant.
"Academician Fang, how strong of a crosswind can the planetary lander withstand?!"
She reached for the steering wheel and asked in a deep voice!
“Theoretically, crosswinds below 50 km/h shouldn’t cause any problems,” Fang Xu replied immediately. “To be on the safe side, crosswinds below 45 km/h are absolutely no issue!”
(All wind speeds are from Dawn)
Xia Wanyi's eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at the text on the holographic projection.
43km/h!
There's still time!
After giving a warning over the communication channel, she gritted her teeth and suddenly turned the steering wheel.
Whoosh!
Countless wisps of yellow sand rose from the ground as the planetary lander lay across the canyon.
The second planetary lander followed suit, turning its body sideways to fill the remaining gap.
"Hong Fan! Hurry!"
After getting ready, Xia Wanyi shouted into the communication channel!
...
Looking at the two planetary landing vehicles not far behind him, Andrew took a deep breath.
With a slight thought, a line of bright red text instantly popped up on the AR display of his helmet.
[Is adrenaline use confirmed?]
Andrew glanced at Hong Fan, who was giving him a thumbs-up, nodded slightly, and confirmed the instruction a second time using the brainwave reading device.
A slight pain came from my thigh muscle.
Adrenaline was injected into the body.
The time to fight tooth and nail has come.
With the help of nanorobots, adrenaline takes effect extremely quickly!
Almost simultaneously, Andrew felt the "added effect" of adrenaline.
Inside the chest cavity, the heart beats with tremendous force, rapidly pumping blood into the blood vessels throughout the body.
Breathing quickened, pupils dilated slightly, and reaction time increased significantly...
It's no exaggeration to say that the next 10 minutes will be his peak physical condition for the next few hours!
"Captain Hong!"
Andrew gave a shout, bent slightly from the ground, and then pulled out the tilted drill rod in front of him without hesitation.
A strong wind blew in, and Andrew, with nowhere to put his footing, was forced to back away.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
Andrew quickly raised his hand and plunged the drill rod into the sand in front of him at an angle.
Using the resistance of the sand, he successfully slowed his backward movement.
At this moment, Hong Fan also completed a series of preparations and forcefully pulled out the drill rod in front of him!
that's all.
The two, one in front of the other, used the drilling rod and the hurricane to quickly "glide" towards the planetary lander!
A few seconds later.
"Bang!"
"Bang!!"
Two dull thuds came from inside the planetary lander.
Hong Fan and Andrew successfully "fell" into the cabin, where Bruno, who had been waiting nearby, helped them up.
The hatch closed quickly.
The planetary lander started up again, turned around, and sped towards the nearest sheltered spot, following the direction of the wind.
"The pressure has been balanced."
The gentle female voice relaxed their tense nerves.
Hong Fan turned his head and glanced at Andrew beside him, a weak smile appearing on his face.
It's safe now...
...
More than ten minutes later.
With the adrenaline effect wearing off, Hong Fan and Andrew, weakened and slumped in their seats, struggled to swallow food to replenish their energy.
Feng Yuanliang's voice could be heard continuously through the communication device.
"The weathering standard of these rock walls has reached level IV, which is a strong weathering level."
"That is, to the point where you can easily pinch it into small pieces with your hand."
"Such extensive rock weathering can only mean that there are huge storms in this canyon all year round."
At this point, Feng Yuanliang paused.
"Just now, the preliminary test results of the soil samples from the other planetary lander have come out."
You might not believe it if I told you.
"This canyon was formed within a hundred years."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gasp of surprise erupted inside the planetary landing vehicle!
Once everyone had calmed down, Feng Yuanliang dropped another bombshell: "Moreover, the formation of the canyon is most likely not due to the action of internal force."
"Based on the current wind speed, I have reason to suspect that the canyon was formed by the wind."
"A hurricane from the A2 plain carved a canyon out of this massive hill!"
Even Hong Fan, who was slumped in his seat, opened his eyes in surprise.
In just one hundred years, the wind alone has created a canyon of this size.
Just how terrifying is the wind in this place?!
Feng Yuanliang's voice continued: "Based on these speculations, I had Zero conduct a simple simulation."
"The simulation results are amazing."
"For such terrain to form within a hundred years, the average wind speed would need to be at least 50 km/h."
“In other words,” Feng Yuanliang said, emphasizing each word, “the wind speeds you are currently experiencing are just the appetizer.”
Inside the planetary landing vehicle, all was silent.
...
Earth
The command center was no longer as calm as before, with researchers coming and going, discussing corresponding countermeasures.
Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside the command center.
"Academician Fang! Something terrible has happened!"
The slightly shrill shout made Fang Xu's heart skip a beat.
