Volume 2: Snow Day Blood Red Chapter 24. A hare with drooping ears

The self-circulating hot wind blew across his cheeks, making people drowsy, Lu Yuan lay on the marching bed, with one hand behind his head, although he was sleepy, he didn't want to sleep.

Underneath him was the portable radiation meter. Lu Yuan collected several clusters of snow samples for testing in the area illuminated by the hare's lights, some high and some low, but all of them hovered around 30 Roentgenium.

He couldn't blame Murphy for not reminding him that the radiation level in the wild was such a high. Many Celestial Alliance citizens, born on ships or space stations, are exposed to much higher background radiation than the surface of the Earth after being blocked by the atmosphere. More than 70 percent of the citizens of the Celestial Alliance are working on the front line of the mineral resource planet, and they have developed quite strong radiation resistance in the process of receiving radiation and cleaning radiation for many years

But the 30 roentgen value is a line of life and death for most mammals, and if it is not calculated rigorously, 1 roentgen (R) is equal to 100 millisieverts (msv) is equal to 0.01 sieverts (sv), and the upper limit of the healthy radiation value that humans can withstand in a year is only 1sv. There is a fatal risk when absorbing more than 4000 msv, and if 4000 msv is absorbed instantaneously, it can kill you on the spot.

Lu Yuan moved his arm, and looked at the snow that was still fluttering outside the window with a slight sigh, such radiant snow would make people have to bear more radiation, no wonder the whole day's trip, neither Murphy nor Lu Yuan found large intelligent creatures, they simply couldn't survive in this harsh environment, assuming survival, what kind of monster would it be?

The untightened water heater was leaking water droplets in the "tick-tick", and Lu Yuan couldn't sleep anyway, so he simply jumped out of bed and tightened it, continuing to supplement the details of the map.

Based on the old information found by Murphy, the name of the area where the Sunset Cloud crashed is translated as the Starov Mountains, and it should be one of the many Old Earth languages that died out after migration. Murphy can naturally interpret without pressure, and Lu Yuan is exempt, and the general-purpose translation headset he carries is not advanced enough to scan what he thinks.

The area near the space launch site has been basically mapped, and the east side of the mountain range has also been outlined. Lu Yuan added lines to the south, and after a while, he felt that his memory was blurry? Within about 500 kilometres to the south, there are often anomalous contours every 70 to 80 kilometres, which are plains but appear as single, dense point-like bulges, and even large ring-shaped bulges at a distance away.

At first, Lu Yuan thought that it was an accumulation of hills or something, but if he thought about it, how could there be such a regular distribution, as if there were hills with a special placement frequency and extremely similar heights?

Lu Yuan turned around to inspect the river plain between the east side of the Stanov Mountains and another higher mountain range, and there were also a large number of staggered anomalous contour curves.

Lu Yuan bit the tip of his pen and muttered for a moment. With such a high environmental radiation value, the earth must have suffered some kind of devastating radiation weapon after the Skyfall War, and caused a chain of global climate change?

Ice age? Lu Yuan hollowed out his head to come up with such a term, thanks to the fact that he didn't skip geography class much when he was a child. This word seems to explain the Earth's climate, which tends to be colder?

Lu Yuan tapped his fingers on his temples with a headache, planetary climate and surface morphology are an independent discipline, Lu Yuan is a paratrooper, not a scientist who drives a colonization transformation ship all day long, and he has no knowledge about planetary colonization that requires a large amount of data and precise modeling. If you have something to do, it's over with an AI consultation, but no citizen of the Celestial Alliance with a bit of status will choose to do the low-level work of repetitive memory labor, and everyone yearns for a very creative artist! Syntactic! Fleet officer!

In short, Lu Yuan temporarily understood these contour anomalies as the soil and rocks layered by some kind of external collapse weapon, and of course, the urban ruins were also considered, but Lu Yuan did not think that time had passed for so long, and there could still be a batch of civil building wreckage.

Sleepless nights.

The next day, the snow swept on both sides by the anti-gravity module was piled up into a pit, burying the hare in it in disguise, Lu Yuan had to turn the anti-gravity module upside down, flew the snowdrift, and let the hare struggle to climb the soft slope.

The blizzard raging at night lasted until the morning, and the visibility was still extremely low, Lu Yuan neither had a reconnaissance robot to do it for him, nor was it convenient to release a drone to monitor the terrain in real time, he didn't dare to raise the speed of the hare, the snow field had almost no references, only a constant frost white, and those trees that barely maintained themselves were not crushed by the snow How could they dare to take more color? The entire foothill line disappeared, and Lu Yuan didn't dare to bet on whether he would win the lottery and press into a frozen snow that stretched over potholes, cliffs, and cracks.

So every few kilometers Lu Yuan traveled, he had to climb out of the cabin, and put a heavy object and density scanner on the drone to detect whether there were vulnerable points ahead, and it turned out that Lu Yuan's caution was not wrong, and many snow layers as thin as one or two meters thick were finished once they were crushed.

Such a cautious advance allowed Lu Yuan to travel less than 5 kilometers until noon, when the wind and snow had weakened, which was very fast for a traveler, but at this speed, Lu Yuan was afraid that it would take until the beginning of spring to reach the launch site formerly known as "Svobodney".

Such a low-power but high-consumption driving method wastes the motorcycle hours of the hare engine. The Marine Corps and other front-line hard-working troops gave the hare the nickname of "strong rabbit", which means that the hare skin is really resistant, but then the resistance will eventually have to be repaired and overhauled, after 400~500 motorcycle hours, it will have to be sent to the field maintenance plant for great health care, Lu Yuan knows a little bit of machine repair, and he is not so powerful to lift the engine out for testing.

Lu Yuan saw that the sky was a little clear, and the drone sent back data showing that the ground was flat ahead, gritted his teeth, and said that his heart was open, he picked up his sunglasses and jumped out of the car, pulled out the additional track teeth, and as soon as the turbine was opened, the "boom" underground was rushed out at a high speed!

Drag racing is certainly very cool, but the cracks in the rearview mirror that follow closely are not very cool, Lu Yuan pressed the cruise mode, tiptoed to the rear door, grabbed the binoculars and examined the rapidly expanding cracks on the vast ice.

"Grass~" Lu Yuan muttered a few times, didn't pay too much attention to it, and just turned around and took an anti-radiation lozenge, there was a loud rumbling sound from far to near to his ears.

The reflection of the snow field is extremely strong, Lu Yuan wears sunglasses, puts his hand on the pergola, and looks at the white torrent rushing from the side of the ridge, the momentum is particularly amazing, as if an art student has erased the flaws of the painting with one stroke, so that people can not see the traces, those black cracks are suddenly submerged and disappear, glowing with a divine glow.

Lu Yuan looked at the ground and exclaimed, this strange scene is too rare, he didn't have a ticket to the glacier simulation ecosystem, he rubbed it for a short time, and he still had a stubble chin, and secretly said that this little wrecking ball is slightly purified, and it is really okay to use it as a vacation planet.

Mei Zizi's fantasy was only a few seconds, Lu Yuan pursed his lips and decided to pat it, he squinted sideways and looked at the sweeping white torrent, his head turned, and he squeezed out some pitiful knowledge.

"Avalanche?" Lu Yuan thought, it doesn't feel like it's a very fierce thing, it's far worse than tsunami surfing. After this thought flashed triumphantly, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered that he was not on Zeus, and then remembered what the word "avalanche" meant.

"Grass." Lu Yuan said a word, rushed into the car like a rabbit, sat in the driver's seat, stepped on the accelerator with one foot, and the turbine acceleration obstacle breaking attitude was all opened, not much! The avalanche is after him!

The hare was flying wildly, and the wind of ice chips hit the rearview mirror of the car, and Lu Yuan didn't have to turn his head, and he saw very bluntly that the coniferous forests disappeared into the avalanche like folding sugar cane.

"Di Di Di ~" The landing failure alarm made Lu Yuan's brain hurt, but Lu Yuan really couldn't free up his hand to move the board to the drone that kept trying to get close to the landing, the people inside were very anxious, and the drone outside was also very anxious, grabbed the hooded flap of the hare and set it up, but as a result, the snow and wind blew, and the drone suddenly "crackled" The wings went straight to the roof of the car, and pulled out a long string of wires to hang the rotor to prevent it from coming out. From a distance, it looks like a hare on the run with its ears shrunken.

Lu Yuan didn't care whether his ears drooped or not, he only cared about whether the speed was fast enough and whether he could get out of the avalanche, but fortunately, this kid's character has always been okay, and the avalanche caused by the crack crushed by the drag racing car didn't last long, so that Lu Yuan could pick up his life.

Seeing that the snow waves were gradually unable to catch up, Lu Yuan sighed and found a leeward slope to slowly stop.

When he opened the hood, there was a hot breath on his face, which made Lu Yuan's face red, and he looked at the engine that had been overloaded for too long and almost burst the cylinder, and the oil was about to boil. It's just a rabbit, not a wildebeest, and it can't stand such a big grievance, although it doesn't lie on its stomach, but if you want to accelerate the turbo, just wait for it to stop.

Lu Yuan had no choice but to flip through the repair manual and repair it simply, how long did Murphy sleep now, Lu Yuan missed the AI who liked broken thoughts, but unfortunately waking it up was not something Lu Yuan could control. Lu Yuan took down the wreckage of the drone that was entwined on the carrier pulley, disassembled the parts and threw them into the trunk, while watching the water boil.

The hot water swirled around the wall of the cup, the instant drink powder precipitated and dissolved, and a cup of fragrant and sweet coffee rested on the table.

Many days later, Lu Yuan opened the diary of the past year, and the first page was still the eye-catching coffee stains.

"On the first day on Earth, the blizzard turned cloudy."

"I don't know what day of the week it is, well, just pretend to be Monday, I drove for a long time today, the hare is very strong, rescued me from the avalanche, I must go to the command when I go back, and it is recommended to also equip the paratroopers with hares......"

"My watch is still the time of the gods, today is January 1st, New Year's Day, I don't know if the home is the first day of the new year, if so, I want to make a New Year's wish."

"After thinking about it for a long time, the wish is too long, and it will definitely not work if I make a wish, and I will transfer it to Ji Yue, she is much smarter than me. If you don't receive it, you can transfer it to your father, and if he doesn't take a vacation, he will transfer it to her mother, in short, it's good to be allowed to go out. ”

"Happy New Year."
