Chapter 950: "Express Train"
And in this last 100 meters distance, even the mastermind has not been able to get detailed information.
In other words, this 100-meter meter has become the most uncontrollable existence in the entire rescue operation.
This is also the reason why the main brain only wants everyone to explain half of the plan, in the final analysis, whether this operation can succeed or not depends on the rescue team's on-the-spot response ability.
……
The battle meeting was over, and the time was almost up, and Harvey led the group through one hidden passage after another, towards the depths of the stronghold's underground.
The so-called "express train" is not the abandoned subway tunnel and rail car in Qi Lin's imagination, but a large natural gas transmission pipeline left over from the old era, the pipeline is buried 15 meters underground, with a diameter of 4.26 meters, the pipe wall is made of concrete, and the inside contains four cast iron pipelines, the whole pipeline is more than 4,000 kilometers long, starting from Chaiandasinskoye, Russia, crossing the Sino-Russian border, and extending to the territory of China.
Built at the beginning of the 21st century and commissioned in 2020, Gazprom and Huaxia Petroleum and Natural Gas Corporation negotiated for several years for the pipeline alone, and finally signed a $400 billion framework agreement in 2014 for a period of 30 years, during which Russia will transport nearly 40 billion cubic meters of natural gas to China every year. It was also from this time that Russia surpassed Central Asia in one fell swoop and became China's largest supplier of natural gas.
However, this agreement did not succeed in maintaining it until 2044, and the reason for this is needless to say, that damn war......
The gas pipeline was deactivated three years before humanity entered the era of refuges, and the cast iron pipes inside were dismantled and recycled, but due to cost, the channel was not completely blocked and remained underground.
Following this gas pipeline, the team members can quickly reach the Eastern Siberian region, and then go all the way east through the Chukotsia Peninsula to the Bering Strait.
As for the route of retreat, instead of returning the same way, they will use inflatable kayaks to cross the Bering Strait dozens of kilometers wide and land in the Alaska region of the United States, where the team will be picked up by the "boss".
"That's our means of transportation."
Pointing to a 10-meter-long shuttle-shaped metal tank attached to the wall of a gas pipeline, the vehicle can use the pressure of the gas to move itself against the wall at high speed, and it only takes four hours for them to reach the end of the pipeline, Cyandasinskoye.
The space inside the shuttle-shaped metal cabin is very small, and everyone can only lie in a series of rubber hanging bags similar to sleeping bags, which are full of elasticity and can wrap the human body tightly, minimizing the impact of the human body in the high-speed metal cabin.
I don't know why, although the mastermind told Qi Lin that "Cheng Yanqiu" would also participate in this operation, but inside the shuttle-shaped metal cabin, Qi Lin didn't see the space prepared for Cheng Yanqiu, and in the conversation with other people, Qi Lin also found that they didn't know Cheng Yanqiu at all...... Or the existence of "F0905".
Could it be that the mastermind has other arrangements? The main brain didn't tell Qi Lin, and Qi Lin didn't ask, in his opinion, although Cheng Yanqiu's combat effectiveness is indeed very strong, but in his current form, it is very difficult to control, and he is not suitable for performing this kind of infiltration task at all, but may become a burden to the team.
The team members drilled into those independent hanging bags, and Qi Lin followed closely behind, but when he got into one of the hanging bags, Ayakui actually followed in, clinging to Qi Lin tightly, and her slender arms were wrapped around Qi Lin's waist.
"Ayakui, why did you come to me?" Qi Lin looked at the girl lying on his chest with some surprise and asked in a low voice, but no expression appeared on the girl's face.
The material of these hanging bags is very elastic, even if it is a large man like 0592, it can be easily wrapped in, and Ayakui's figure is very thin, so Qi Lin does not feel crowded...... It's just that this girl's body is tightly attached to herself, which can't help but make Qi Lin feel a burst of strangeness.
Thankfully...... Ayakui's body hasn't developed much yet, and if it were replaced by Persephone or Song Xiaodie, I'm afraid Qi Lin would already be unable to control his physiological reaction......
"Don't you want to be comfortable?" The little girl lying on Qi Lin's chest raised her head, and a pair of dead fish eyes that did not fluctuate at all were staring at Qi Lin, but the words that came out of her mouth made Qi Lin completely stunned......
Unfold...... Comfortable...... A little?!
"Don't think crooked, idiot." As soon as the words fell, Qi Lin felt a powerful mental force spread from Ayakui's body, wrapping the hanging bag where the two of them were, and then gently dragged it up and suspended it in the shuttle-shaped metal cabin.
"......" Qi Lin then understood what Ayakui meant by "being comfortable", although this kind of hanging bag can reduce the impact force of people a lot, but the hanging bag still needs to be connected with a frenulum and the metal cabin, and the impact force cannot be reduced to zero, and the hanging bag they are now in is completely in a suspended state after being lifted up by Ayakui with mental power, even if the metal cabin outside has been violently impacted, as long as the hanging bag does not contact the inner wall of the metal cabin, Naturally, they will not be affected in any way.
The main brain has designed the hanging bag to be as comfortable as possible, but traveling at high speed for four hours in this state is not a small burden for the evolutionary, but for Qi Lin and Ayakui, it is just to spend these four hours lying in a stable sleeping bag.
"Honestly...... I'm really a little bit of a coveter of your abilities...... I also have psychic abilities, but why am I so limited that I can't use them as freely as you do? Feeling the power of Ayakui's essence through the hanging bag, Qi Lin said enviously.
"......" Ayakui did not answer Qi Lin's words, but closed her eyes and pressed her cheek against Qi Lin's chest.
The time soon came, several hatches of the shuttle-shaped metal cabin were closed, the tail thruster vent spewed blue-purple flames, and the strangely shaped vehicle was so close to the wall of the natural gas pipeline that it jumped out quickly—
In just one point and six seconds, the shuttle-shaped metal cabin has accelerated to the peak, and at the same time, a muffled snort is faintly coming from several other hanging bags - the shuttle-shaped metal cabin will also exert a powerful force on the passenger's body when accelerating, this gravitational acceleration is very close to the limit that astronauts have to withstand during training, and among these people, except for Harvey, who has a pilot certificate, no one else has been trained in this area, and it is naturally extremely difficult to bear for a while.
Fortunately, there were few weak people among the team members, and it didn't take long for the speed of the shuttle-shaped metal cabin to stabilize, and everyone gradually got used to this feeling.
Four hours, not short, not long, taking advantage of this last little time, Qi Lin closed his eyes, intending to recuperate......
However, things are not as smooth as imagined, just halfway through the journey, the shuttle-shaped metal cabin suddenly came to a sudden brake, and the cabin cabins collided together, and the cries of pain also sounded one after another-
