Chapter 575: Wild Storm and Blizzard
Under the cover of night, the lordship blew long waves on the surface of the sea and rushed towards the boundless sea. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The speed of one hundred and fifty knots was already close to three hundred yards on land, and sitting in the cockpit, Ye Qing could only detect the slight turbulence and the roaring sound of the waves being blown away by the air current.
By daytime, the lord warship had sailed out of the East China Sea, speeding across the endless Pacific Ocean.
All this way is automatic cruise, and the monster is responsible for watching the wind.
As for whether anyone will see a large yacht speeding on the water, that is not a matter for Ye Qing to consider.
Work online during the day and rest at night.
By the next day, the lord warship had rounded Australia and reached the waters off Antarctica.
The temperature inside the cockpit is 24 degrees Celsius, and the outside temperature is -16 degrees Celsius.
At this time, there are already large icebergs floating in the sea. From time to time, the lord warship galloped through the dark ice on the surface of the sea, and a loud grinding sound erupted.
In the afternoon, the iceberg disappeared from the sea.
Instead, there is an endless image of beautiful white ice, with the lord warship riding on the ice, relying on four jet thrusters to jet compressed air.
It's quiet like another planet, the sea is frozen, and the jet thrusters blow up shallow snowflakes on the ice, like a white dragon dancing on the ice.
At this time, the temperature was already minus 20 degrees, Ye Qing played passionate music, and chose the most hidden route to land according to the location of the scientific research stations of various countries marked on the electronic map.
I don't know how long I walked, but the white and silent world in front of me vaguely appeared with undulating outlines.
It is impossible for the ice to have an undulating outline, which is a sign that the Antarctic continent has arrived.
Ye Qing's spirits perked up, and when he was still thousands of meters away from the land, he swung his tail sharply, causing the lord battleship to drift and draw a huge arc on the ice. Kankan stopped in front of a raised boulder, made a beacon on the electronic map, and then switched operating equipment.
From the outside, this strange yacht speeding on the ice suddenly seemed to be a spirit, and a steel beast crawled out from the bottom of the boat, stretching out its sharp forefeet.
It was two mechanical arms equipped with sharp chisels, and under Ye Qing's control, these two mechanical arms were "aggressive~" like woodpeckers, chiseling all the surrounding ice surfaces.
The ice shattered, and the Nature Lord battleship fell into the ice cave.
Two minutes later, the lord battleship, which had hidden its camouflage shell, climbed out of the nearly two-meter-thick ice cave and climbed towards the land with four steel giant feet.
This is Cape Goodenough, named after an explorer who set foot in Antarctica.
Of course, the great explorer's journey to the South Pole was not wonderful, hundreds of years ago due to a lack of cold protection equipment, he was wearing wool felt boots and two toes and one finger were frozen out, while another of his companions was laid to rest in the South Pole forever.
Thanks to science and technology, Ye Qing can now taste spirits again, wearing a single coat and enjoying the scenery outside the window.
The scarlet shell is unusually conspicuous when exposed to the white world, so wait until you climb on land. Ye Qing and the monsters put on heavy cold-proof clothing on their bodies, and then opened the hatch.
"I ...... Depend on...... Ahh
The moment the hatch opened, the huge temperature difference gave Ye Qing the illusion of falling into a pool of liquid hydrogen at hundreds of degrees below zero. The warm air in the cabin was instantly blown away by the strong wind, and the originally quiet environment was replaced by the terrifying howling sound of the wind.
The cruel nature taught Ye Qing a lesson, he originally stayed in the warm and quiet cockpit, watching the wind mixed with snowflakes outside the window sweep by, which made Ye Qing have the illusion that Antarctica is nothing more than that.
But as soon as the hatch was opened, Ye Qing immediately felt that his blood was frozen and his breathing was frozen.
The outside temperature is minus 34 degrees, but the wind speed is enough to reach 8.
"Bang~", the hatch was closed by Ye Qing. Of course, the others didn't go down, and two blue-faced fanged laborers stepped into the raging wind and dragged out a pure white camouflage net from the hold.
They seemed to ignore the wind and the extreme cold, and they simply covered the lord warship with camouflage in the face of the gale. Suddenly, the scarlet cool shell disappeared, and the lord warship merged with the pure white earth.
Go ahead and follow the location of the combustible ice on the electronic map.
If it weren't for the information from the Antarctic expedition team, who would have imagined that the extremely cold Antarctica in the barren land would actually store the world's richest combustible ice resources?
The combustible ice mine buried on the surface is more than a hundred kilometers away.
It is also more than 100 kilometers away from Zhongshan Station, a scientific research station stationed in Antarctica. Three years ago, in the warm season, the investigators of Zhongshan Station accidentally discovered that place while surveying the terrain.
Along the way, encountering undulating mountains, the lord warship either detoured or climbed, and when it encountered flat ground, it turned on its thrusters and slid on the snow.
The sun was resting in the sky, it was already one o'clock in the morning, and it was still a somewhat dim day. Arriving at the map area, Ye Qing found that this was actually an endless ice and snow plain. Using a mechanical arm to sweep away the snow on the plains, Ye Qing suddenly discovered that under the ice field was another transparent frozen world.
With a little bit of light blue, countless bubbles are eternally frozen inside. And the wave patterns that are formed for unknown reasons seem to silently tell the beauty that only belongs to them.
It's all combustible ice, which is readily available compared to the combustible ice buried in the permafrost and the seabed hundreds of meters deep. Of course, the harsh natural environment isolates everyone from their feet.
Now that Ye Qing came with the lord battleship, looking for an edge position, the lord warship once again leaned out of the mechanical arm, started the high-power laser cutting machine, and cut a cone on the ice obliquely.
As the hot laser passed, the ice was neatly sliced open, but as another robotic arm lifted a giant ice pick, the combustible ice below burst into blue flames.
Ye Qing had long expected this situation, the combustible ice would only volatilize slowly after contact with the air, so the combustion was not violent, the laser ignited it, and it could be extinguished by recovering the lid.
To extinguish the fire, the mechanical arm was replaced by a wheel cutting machine, and the high-speed rotating wheel blade was neatly cut out of the combustible ice according to the size of one cubic meter.
The transparent combustible gas slowly evaporates from the makeshift pit, and after each piece is cut, the robotic arm will hold it and send it into the cargo hold of the lord's warship.
One cubic meter of water is one ton, and the weight of combustible ice is about the same, so Ye Qing has to cut at least a thousand pieces. Before I knew it, the howling wind outside the porthole gradually stopped. Just when Ye Qing thought that he had encountered good weather, a goose feather-like snowflake swirled and fell in front of Ye Qing's eyes.
One, two, countless pieces, the snow is getting heavier and heavier. When Ye Qing cut to the two hundredth piece, the goose feather snow turned into a palm, and the disappeared wind roared again.
The whole world was white, even if he didn't fall ten meters through the porthole, Ye Qing couldn't see the appearance of the mechanical arm at all, let alone cut combustible ice. The outside temperature also dropped sharply to 39 degrees, and the snow carried blade-like ice ballast, which rattled against the portholes.
This kind of extremely bad weather, if it is encountered by the scientific expedition team members walking on foot, I am afraid that the end will only be the end of the whole army.
If he hadn't come to Antarctica, Ye Qing estimated that he would live for another three hundred years, and he wouldn't have expected to see such a shocking natural scene.
All right~
Since you can't cut it, get some combustible ice and enjoy the snow while barbecuing. Ye Qing, who was wearing a single coat, got up and walked towards the living cabin.
