Chapter 133 Giant Jupiter
As Albert Benton had said, the starship was quickly launched.
With the protection of many parties, this group of students arrived at Jupiter smoothly.
The starship was parked steadily at the port, but Vice President and Director of the Mecha Department Teng Yufei had no intention of opening the starship. Instead, he stood there and announced the rules of the activity.
Tang Jia, who was thinking about Dong Shannai, couldn't concentrate at all. Even at such an important moment, this girl was still distracted.
This made Teng Yufei, who had been keeping a close eye on her, fearing that she would find a bug and cause trouble, breathe a sigh of relief.
Bai Lingfeng looked at Teng Yufei's alert expression, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Guard against Tang Jia?
Teng Yufei obviously got the wrong direction!
Teng Yufei explained the rules as quickly as possible.
The rules are simple.
Start from the port, cross half the planet, and reach Yaoshan Ridge, the highest point of Jupiter, to earn points.
It’s hard to say.
What route to take, how to solve the problems of eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping along the way, whether you can get extra points... these are all important parts of field practice activities and are related to the amount of points you can get.
So, as soon as Teng Yufei announced the official start of the event, everyone couldn't wait to set off.
Only the eight people from the art department stood there, motionless as a mountain.
Teng Yufei looked at them in confusion, wondering what trouble these unconventional students would cause next.
Seeing that all the students who participated in the field practice activities had disappeared, the eight-member group from the Art Department began to move slowly.
They put on four layers of protective clothing, checked themselves, and then checked each other. They didn't leave the starship until they were sure that everyone was dressed properly.
Looking at the cautious movements of these students, Teng Yufei just found it funny.
“In an emergency, you can press the abstention button.”
Hai Rouer raised an eyebrow and asked in a muffled voice through her protective suit, "Can giving up guarantee that I won't be parasitized by spores?"
Teng Yufei couldn't guarantee it!
Seeing this, Hai Rouer sneered and skipped to catch up with the other members.
As you walk, the protective suit makes a rustling sound, which is a bit harsh but reassuring.
Standing on the starship doesn't give you much of a feeling, but stepping out of the starship and facing the impact of the giant trees on Jupiter is truly unforgettable.
The emerald-colored treetops are stacked layer upon layer, blocking out the sun. The tree trunks, tens or hundreds of meters high, are like pillars supporting the sky, standing tall and piercing the sky.
The surface of the giant tree's trunk is covered with grooves, and above the grooves is a half-meter-thick carpet woven with moss.
The ground beneath the giant tree is also green.
Green vegetation taller than humans, emitting a strong scent of grass and trees, wrapped in moisture and carrying an astonishing amount of oxygen, rushed towards everyone.
Thousands of glowing spores dotted among the giant trees and vegetation create a dreamlike beauty.
The eight members of the Art Department stretched out their hands at the same time, allowing the tiny "spots of light" to adorn their protective suits.
Looking at the eight little idiots, Bai Lingfeng couldn't help but sigh.
This gentle sound instantly awakened the eight people's consciousness.
Looking at the spores on their bodies, the eight people couldn't help but gasp and tremble slightly.
After the spores left, Tang Jia took out a highly effective antidote and held it in his mouth, while turning on the equipment for extracting the liquid medicine.
Mei Lixin consciously handed over his dagger, and Tang Jia took it and put it aside.
After the preparations were completed, Tang Jia used his wood-related abilities to attract the nearest giant tree.
No plant could resist the allure of wood-type powers, not even the giant tree. It quickly extended its roots and branches toward Tang Jia, greedily absorbing them.
Tang Jia generously used his special abilities, silently providing them. Soon, a group of new branches sprouted from all around the giant tree.
Tang Jia picked up the dagger that Mei Lixin had kindly provided without hesitation, gently cut a hole in the tender branch, and placed the equipment for extracting the medicine directly on it.
The translucent membrane structure was punctured by the device, and the green liquid slowly flowed into the test tube at the lower end.
At the same time, the upper part of the dagger and the equipment for extracting the medicine made a harsh sound like metal corrosion.
Tang Jia seemed not to hear it. While providing supernatural power to the giant tree, he kept changing the test tubes at the bottom, allowing his equipment to be corroded bit by bit.
The equipment for extracting the liquid medicine was not as sturdy as expected. Tang Jia only changed the test tube three times and took out 330 ml of liquid before the equipment was corroded and became unusable.
Mei Lixin's dagger was not much better, with only two-thirds of it remaining on the ground.
Tang Jia extracted the remaining metal from the equipment and handed it to Yu Zirui along with the half of the dagger on the ground.
"You, think of a solution?!"
Yu Zirui took two pieces of scrap copper and iron and resigned himself to his fate as a blacksmith.
Purify, smelt, and forge.
The dagger gradually took shape, but it was a little smaller than before.
Mei Lixin didn't mind. He picked it up to get familiar with it for a while, then put it back on his waist.
Not only was Bai Lingfeng stunned, but Teng Yufei also just stood there in a daze.
As expected, he is a descendant of Sun Nianhan’s family!
A cool move, late but it arrives.
However, the liquid from the giant tree is indeed a good thing and is worth some fancy moves.
Tang Jia put the liquid he had extracted with great difficulty into the special medicine tube brought by Hai Rouer, and then the group walked forward on the "green carpet" walked by their "predecessors".
Every step they took would startle balls of fluorescent light, but they were never confused again.
Being half a step behind is both a disadvantage and an advantage.
No need to travel, no need to disturb the moss and cause trouble, and easy to determine the direction...
But in return, they will also plunder all the surrounding resources.
As the sun set, everyone was still empty-handed. Commanders Dang Hong and Shu Yufan became very nervous.
The two looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus.
"Take a shortcut!"
"Go towards the Colorful Lake!"
The closest way to get from the port to Yaoshan Ridge is through the Colorful Lake.
But this road is the most dangerous.
Yaoshanling has a high altitude and low temperature. The water vapor in the clouds condenses into ice and snow here, which gradually melts after falling on the top of the mountain and forms water flows.
The water flows down from the top of the mountain continuously, gathering into a trickle, and suddenly sinking at Tiger Leaping Cliff to form a white waterfall.
The water droplets from the waterfall are cut into colorful prisms as they pass through the treetops, forming a beautiful and unique landscape. People simply and crudely named the lake filled with these colorful water droplets the Colorful Lake.
The water in the Colorful Lake is crystal clear and can be drunk directly after a little filtration. It is the largest and most important water source on Jupiter.
This is news known to all teachers and students of the Alliance's First Military Academy, and naturally it cannot be hidden from the plants, animals, mutated plants and exotic beasts native to Jupiter.
So, when these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked.
The words "Are you serious?" and a bunch of question marks were clearly written on everyone's face.
The two commanders who were questioned nodded very firmly.
