The Antarctic journey officially began. The two were excited but also remained vigilant at all times.
In this strange continent, dangers are everywhere, and the three most deadly dangers are ice cracks, murderous winds, and white skies.
What they are most wary of now are the ice cracks under their feet. Many of these cracks, formed due to stress on the ice, are thousands of meters deep.
It would be fine if it fell and froze into a specimen, but I am afraid that in the subsequent glacial movement, it would be ground into slag like beans in a stone mill.
Of course, if it was really that dangerous, Xia Yu would not have brought Xiao Jiang with him. He must have been completely confident.
If he fell, he would use Rick's teleportation gun to shoot at the air below his feet. The coordinates of the return city were directly set by Xia Yu to be the Polaris. He had never used this prop once!
But we can't shoot recklessly. It's better not to fall than to fall and then try to save ourselves.
They drove forward cautiously. Their goal was Dome A, where Kunlun Station was located. It was the highest area of the Antarctic inland ice sheet. Due to its extremely harsh climatic conditions, it was called the "Inaccessible Pole".
Whether it is inaccessible or close, the scientific research station has been built for more than ten years, and Dome A is no longer a mystery to humans.
What is mysterious is the subglacial mountain range of Dome A. Xia Yu plans to take ice cores as well as rock samples from this mountain range.
As a wealthy man, he works hard for the scientific community and hopes that in his next life he can be given a learning system to help him realize his dream of becoming a scientist.
As the polar night approached, the days in Antarctica became longer and shorter. They landed during the day, but it was completely dark a few hours later. After turning on the car lights and driving for a while, the two decided to set up camp.
It only got warmer after the car started. We still have to stay in a tent in such cold weather.
Xia Yu took the tent from the sled behind and started to set it up. Jiang Baiying also came to help, but she didn't know that the tent they were going to stay in tonight had been on Mars.
Xia Yu would continue to use things that were of commemorative significance; it was not his style to put them aside. Once the tent was set up and the heating equipment was turned on, the situation inside and outside the tent was completely different.
“It’s so warm!”
Jiang Baiying took off her gloves and felt the warmth from Chai Nuan with her hands.
Domestic No. 0 diesel will freeze when it falls below zero, but isn’t there an option like -50? Even if the temperature is very cold, there is electric heating. There are always more solutions than problems, and humans are as tenacious as cockroaches.
"Are you hungry?"
Xia Yu asked as he took off his heavy snow boots.
"A little bit, Senior, what are we having for dinner?"
Jiang Baiying knew that the treatment on land was not as good as on the ship, so she was prepared to endure hardships.
“How about roast duck?”
