Chapter 224: Heading for the Oasis

The 22% additional gravity burden, combined with the hypoxic effect of the 4,000-meter plateau, is the problem that Hara, Smith and Lynn will face if they live on the Sand Star for a long time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Fortunately, all three of them are physically outstanding (Lynn's physical discomfort is a special case), and such environmental conditions are far from beyond the limits of human physical adaptation.

Also, being able to move around the Sand Star with relative freedom is much better than being covered in a spacesuit for many months.

The specific countermeasures have been analyzed and discussed by Yuan Haochen before.

They decided to wear only a simple aeration mask on the Sand Star, which was the same way to breathe the Sand Star's air, but during the exhalation, the oxygen mask would increase the oxygen content value to ensure the normal oxygen level they needed.

Because the Mirai spacecraft has the ability to collect oxygen from the atmosphere, such a solution will not burden the oxygen supply of this exploration operation.

In addition, the mask comes with a set of sunglasses that block glare and dust to protect their eyes.

Acting on an unknown planet, such an arrangement is indeed a bit bold, however, it is really the best option.

Because, at 122% of the gravity level, wearing a heavy extravehicular spacesuit (a set of 80 kg) will put a heavy burden on them.

Although no anomalous radiation was detected on the surface of the planet, out of caution, Yuan Haochen and the others still wore sturdy protective suits and boots, and wore protective gloves to wrap themselves tightly.

As a result, you will immediately sweat profusely, which is really not comfortable.

"Smith, scan the area around Future up to 100 meters underground." Yuan Haochen commanded with a cautious face.

Although the surrounding area of the Future seemed barren and silent, they were not to leave the Future until it was confirmed that it was absolutely safe.

"At your command, Mr. Commander!" Smith immediately sneered to work on the Future's control platform.

"I'll tell you the good news, there are no alien monsters lurking underground."

Ten minutes later, Future finished scanning the surrounding subterranean area, and Smith spoke matter-of-factly.

"That's a shame that you won't have a chance to show your skills." Lynn teased Smith.

"Hahaha~, I don't want to provoke Star Wars." Smith burst out laughing.

In addition, through the three satellites launched before, they can also clearly grasp every move on the ground of the Sand Star.

"Lynn, you're not feeling well, stay on the Future."

Yuan Haochen looked at Lynn's slightly pale face and said.

The Mirai spacecraft is crucial for them. Although it seems to be quiet here, if something happens and they go to the Future, it will be a catastrophe not only for the three of them, but also for the civilization of the earth.

"Good!!"

Lynn naturally knew the significance of this, and at this time, she was indeed the most suitable person to stay behind, so she did not hesitate to respond.

Buzz~Buzz~

From the tail of the Mikura, a light-powered (solar) vehicle slowly descends.

Although this space vehicle may not look big, it is actually full of high-tech equipment, and the only drawback is that the light energy drive cannot maintain ultra-long-range continuous driving, and can only last for 200 kilometers on a full charge (compared to the giant Sand Star, 200 kilometers is really pediatric).

Also, it takes a long time to charge with light energy, and even if all the light panels are turned on, they must last all day to fully charge.

Fortunately, the light energy on the Sand Star is much more abundant than the solar energy on Earth, which is one of the important factors that the Interstellar Exploration Alliance considered when designing the space rover.

To commemorate the Mars scientific exploration operation, the alliance gave the space rover the same name as the Mars landing vehicle - Quanyue.

"Today is the first day of landing on Sand Star, and Smith and I are going to go to the oasis five kilometers away to find out, and Lynn is staying on the Future......"

Hara was recording his movements before departure in front of the camera system on the Future.

"Okay, we're ready to go, keep in touch at all times, remember to call for help in case of emergency, and we're the same." Yuan Haochen said to Lynn after making the record.

"Understood, remember to bring more weapons!!" Lynn emphasized.

"Good!"

"Don't worry, I'll catch a sand star for you and come back." Smith looks geared up and can't wait to get started.

"You have to do what you say, don't brag about it, you kid." Lynn said with a smile.

"Let's go, just wait for our good news." Yuan Haochen waved to Lynn and turned around and walked into the transit tunnel of the Future.

"Wow~Wow~"

Yuan Haochen finally put his feet on the land of the Alpha Centauri system.

As far as the eye can see, there is a world of gravel.

As you step forward, the gravel under your feet rattled.

Smith stepped out of the Future Immediately, and he was covered in weapons and firearms.

Several sharp knives and daggers, pistols, assault rifles, shotguns, and, most exaggeratedly, two bazooka-like weapons hanging from their backs.

"I said......" Yuan Haochen wiped the beads of sweat from his hairline and said, "Are you going to capture the Sand Star?" ”

"Haha~" Smith laughed happily.

Smith is worthy of being a master selected by the Interstellar Exploration Alliance Action Group, with so many weapons on his back, he is still as light as a swallow, and his steps are light, and he walked in front of the Quanyue space vehicle in three or two steps.

"Whoa."

Smith quickly loaded all of his weapons into the Izumizuki's storage box.

"Actually, the Quanyue is already equipped with several state-of-the-art weapons, such as laser and electromagnetic weapons." Yuan Haochen said

"Be prepared. We can't stay on the Izumitsuki forever. Smith explained.

"You're right, your action group is more good at this, you can do it." Yuan Haochen nodded in agreement.

When Smith was done, he crossed directly into the Quanyue.

"Get in the car! Your Excellency, General. ”

"Thank you!" Yuan Haochen is also not polite, although he also has the ability to drive various vehicles, but Smith, as a member of the action team, will naturally be more professional in driving skills.

Therefore, it is indeed more appropriate for him to be a driver in the courtesy (position).

"Woo~Woo~"

The Izumizuki's electric engine roared.

"Lynn, let's go, be careful." Yuan Haochen said to Lynn through a satellite communication device.

"Yes, you have to be careful."

"Let's go!!"

As soon as Yuan Haochen gave the order, the Quanyue rolled through the gravel pile on the ground and headed for the oasis five kilometers away...... (To be continued.) )
