Chapter 1049: Iceberg
The meteorite accident that Bei Linkou mentioned caused the death of several scientific researchers in the Yan Kingdom and caused Wang Meng's accident.
It's just that Ying Junyao is a little curious, hasn't this accident been classified as top secret by the high-level, and the incident happened at the monitoring point in her own country, why does she, a scientific researcher in the United States, know so much about this?
"Don't look at me like that, in fact, I know the purpose of your coming here, and I also know that behind you, there are many countries that are about to arrive in no man's land for these fragments, but all this has nothing to do with me, I need your help to monitor and count the data of this blizzard, and in return, if there is something I can help, I will also help you, but the premise is that it does not affect my research plan. Belin confessed.
Qin Fan didn't speak, Ying Junyao was silent for a moment, nodded and said two words: "Okay." ”
For the first time after entering the no-man's land, the two sides reached a tacit understanding.
And Belin also gave up the direction gauge in his hand, and instead took out a palm-sized black machine from his backpack, opened it and said to the two: "This is a geomagnetic detector, which can clearly mark the location of all unstable magnetic fields within a radius of twenty kilometers, but it cannot detect its position and depth. ”
Qin Fan and Ying Junyao walked to her side, looking at the display screen of the black instrument in her hand, there were green latitude and longitude and scan lines constantly rotating, among which when the scan line passed through a range in front of the left, two green dots flashed, which were warning signs of unstable magnetic fields.
"Are these two unstable magnetic fields within a radius of twenty kilometers?" said Ying Junyao with some excitement.
"Well, this detector is directly connected to our country's geomagnetic monitoring station in no man's land, and the information is common, and the scientific research station can also receive it. Belin said.
The implication is obvious, since she can search these two unstable points, then the group of people who are about to arrive behind her can also be searched.
"Then hurry up, find a place to take things away quickly, if you are late, things will change, if they catch up, I'm afraid there will be big trouble." ”
As Ying Junyao was talking, she suddenly noticed that there was something wrong with Belin's face, so she apologized: "I'm really sorry, we won't forget the agreement." ”
Belin smiled, "It's okay, just two points are in the depths of no man's land, this distance is enough for me to survey and count extreme weather, let's go together." ”
Time was urgent, the three of them did not delay, and continued to let Belin lead the way in front, Qin Fan and Ying Junyao followed behind, heading towards the depths of the no-man's land.
This way, everyone didn't talk anymore, the vast Antarctic snow is not as wonderful as imagined, under the cover of the white snow are all 10,000-year-old ice pits that may kill people, and under the ice pits are murderous ice picks with pointed heads, once you accidentally step on the air and fall into it, even if it is an elephant, it will be hung on the ice pick, and no one can rescue it.
Even with an experienced person like Belin leading the way, everyone walked extremely carefully, and the distance of less than twenty kilometers was infinitely stretched until late at night, before reaching the destination.
In the middle of this, Ying Junyao accidentally stepped on the edge of the ice pit twice, and it was Qin Fan who quickly pulled her back from death, and in the cold temperature, Ying Junyao was already sweating profusely.
"Here we are, that's pretty much it, let's pitch a tent. ”
Belin had become the leader of the three, and when the team reached the foot of an iceberg, she stared at the detector in her hand for a long time before ordering everyone to stop.
"Is the meteorite fragment around here?"
Ying Junyao frowned and looked around, icebergs, snow, and glaciers......
Since arriving in No Man's Land, the scenery here seems to have remained unchanged for thousands of years, and you can never see the difference.
"Well, this is the closest unstable point to us, the area of influence is about 1,000 square feet under our feet, the detector fluctuates wildly, and if you're lucky, what you're looking for, here. Belin explained.
"1000 square feet. ”
Ying Junyao looked down at her feet, even through the thick snow, she could feel the thickness of the ice that had been deposited under the snow for 10,000 years, the ice here was much harder than the rocks, and they only brought a simple version of the ice breaker when they came, if the meteorite fragments were hidden too deeply, I am afraid that even if they could determine the location, they would not be able to dig it out of the ice and take it away.
What's more dangerous is that the ice here has not been touched for I don't know how many years, if it causes its internal structure to be unstable during the icebreaking, resulting in ice cracks, several people can die at any time, and there is no chance of escape.
As he spoke, Qin Fan had already set up a tent at the place where the iceberg was windy.
He walked over and stomped the ground a few times with the soles of his feet, then let out a long sigh.
"Let's rest and eat something first, add some calories, and when the detector is built, I will help you find a way to find out the things, as for whether you can dig it or not, it all depends on God's will." Belin said helplessly.
