Similarly, Xia Yu wanted to climb Mount Olympus at night and stand on the top to see the most beautiful scenery.
After packing his luggage, he put on the remote controller of the landing shuttle, studied it for a while, turned on the follow mode, and then climbed up step by step.
As a typical shield volcano, Olympus Mons has continued to erupt for hundreds of millions of years, reaching a height of more than 20,000 meters. However, as the movement of Martian plates has become less active, this volcano has become a dormant volcano and will not erupt in its lifetime.
It’s a pity that we can’t grill it at the top of the mountain. Xia Yu has it all in his space.
As we continued to climb, our breathing became gradually more rapid. This was not due to altitude sickness, but because the slope was too steep.
The side he climbed was a 7,000-meter-high cliff. Only after conquering this section would there be a gentle slope of meters behind.
Lying on the cliff, Xia Yu looked at the altitude and found that he had only climbed less than 500 meters.
No, he had to take a break. He reached out to call for the landing shuttle, and after a short rest, he climbed again.
This time Xia Yu used a grappling gun. Climbing with bare hands is cool, but climbing a 7,000-meter cliff with bare hands is a bit tricky. This feat requires the help of equipment.
"Swoosh~Ding~Woo~~~"
The grappling hook shot out and penetrated deep into the rock wall. Xia Yu used the force of the tightening winch to continue climbing up, and his efficiency was much higher than at the beginning.
In this way, he climbed from night to day, and from day to night. He even drilled two holes in the smooth cliff and set up a hammock.
After four hours of deep sleep, Xia Yu started climbing again before dawn. He finally reached the top of the cliff at dawn the next day, and the road ahead was smooth.
Xia Yu didn't worry about manpower for this section of the journey. He turned around, got into the landing shuttle, and drove quickly towards the top of the mountain.
The huge Olympus covers an area of 300,000 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the size of Italy. All you have to do is climb the steep slope from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, and the rest can be left to the landing shuttle.
"Buzz~~"
The accelerator was stepped on to the bottom, and the landing shuttle moved forward at a speed of 1.8 Mach and soon reached the crater wall at the top of the peak.
Looking down, the solidified lava covered the crater, and there was no light. If a Big Ivan was hit, it might detonate the dormant volcano, but Xia Yu didn't have such a thing.
Turning around and looking into the distance, the sun is still the same sun, slowly rising from the horizon, painting the surrounding sky into a clear blue.
It was limited to morning and evening, and the sky would soon turn yellow. Xia Yu took a picture of this scene with his camera.
The next step is to find some souvenirs to take back to Earth. He previously packed a can of Martian sand, and now he wants to find a piece of Olympus Stone.
Mount Tai's Stone Guardian, an intangible cultural heritage announced by the state, is not some feudal superstition. It embodies the Chinese people's beautiful hope for a peaceful and prosperous life, and has evolved into many myths and legends based on historical events.
Having a stone talisman at home can ward off evil spirits and bring harmony to the family.
However, with a population of over one billion in China, if you pick up a piece and I chisel a piece, the huge Mount Tai will soon be reduced to flat ground. Therefore, it is now forbidden to pick up and take away Taishan stones, and it is even more forbidden to steal and sell Taishan stones.
As a highly qualified wealthy man, Xia Yu knows the law and does not break it. Instead of picking up Taishan stones, why not pick up a stone from Mars?
It doesn’t matter. So far, no country has claimed sovereignty over Mars, and it is still virgin land.
Glancing around, Xia Yu was looking for a good-looking stone. He didn't know much about Feng Shui, nor did he know what shape the stone should be, so he just wanted something that looked good.
Of course, we also have to confirm that there is no radiation. This is very important, after all, we have to guard Kana Island.
Forget about the new home in Shanghai, the situation in China is more sensitive. Even if he carves it into a stone lion and makes the surface look old, it is not safe.
Kanai Island is isolated overseas, so there is no need to worry about this problem. The problem is which one to choose now.
Suddenly, Xia Yu's eyes lit up. There seemed to be a good spot over there!
This is a lying stone, shaped like a tiger or a lion, in short, it is the shape of a big cat.
There are lions and tigers on Kanai Island, and there is also a killer whale in the sea. This stone is destined to be with him, and this is the one.
Xia Yu made a choice in his heart, stretched out his hand, and directly put the Olympus Stone into the storage space.
This stone alone was enough to make his trip worthwhile, but the journey was not over yet.
After playing on Mount Olympus for a day, Xia Yu camped in the crater for another night and was not ready to set off again until the next morning.
In addition to endless yellow sand and the tallest mountain in the solar system, Mars also has poles similar to those of the Earth.
They are now in the northern hemisphere, and Xia Yu plans to go to the Arctic to see the ice cap before leaving.
The landing shuttle took off again and sped towards the North Pole, but before it had gone far, it saw rolling yellow sand blowing towards it.
It's a sandstorm, and it looks quite powerful. Electric flashes appear from time to time in the wind and sand. The friction between sand and gravel will carry static electricity, and the accumulated static electricity discharges to produce this beautiful and deadly scene.
Xia Yu drove the landing shuttle rapidly upwards, avoiding the sandstorm and continuing towards the North Pole.
After the magnetic field of Mars disappears, the poles will only be a geographical concept. If humans want to colonize Mars in the future, if they don’t want to live in space stations or underground cities, they must rebuild the polar magnetic fields and artificially improve the atmospheric structure.
There is no end to scientific research. Xia Yu is looking forward to it. He wonders whether such technology can be developed in the next hundred years.
In the afternoon, Mars' spiral Arctic ice cap finally appeared before our eyes, with the surface covered with a thick layer of silver, a beautiful northern landscape.
