Chapter 056: A Huge Mirrored Ice Wall
"So powerful?" I was surprised and said, "Is this the only technology we have?" Other countries won't steal it? ”
Hugo said, "No! This technology is at least five years ahead of other countries, and the transmission channel we use is the most advanced and secret technology to date. To put it simply, we are already using it, and even the most developed countries have not yet discovered the existence of this technology. ”
I have to admire that the strength of my great power is not trivial, and the international community is still developing us like children, but in fact our capabilities may have already stood on the top of the world.
At this moment, my national pride was born!
We are talking to each other and moving forward, but the last Shen Hao is depressed enough. He was originally a guy with a lot of words, and no one paid attention to him at this time, so he was really panicked. He wanted to chat with An Beimo, but unfortunately An Beimo didn't even look back.
We are getting closer and closer to the target location, and we have stepped into the iceberg area, and the temperature has dropped dramatically. Hugo taught me how to use ultra-nanofiber clothing to increase cold resistance.
It turns out that the ultra-thin clothes actually have their own operating chips, the clothes have their own energy joints, and there are adjusters at the cuffs, the operation is very simple, and the release of energy nodes can increase the temperature of the clothes, so that we can walk in the snowy mountains as if we were staying in a warm house.
What I was most worried about at first was the climate and temperature, but the two biggest problems were solved with ease, which is amazing the power of technology.
Further on, the wind began to become bitter, and it was calm and unpredictable just a kilometer away, and in the blink of an eye, the wind roared, slamming at the body with snow.
An Beimo reminds us that this is due to the great change in climate caused by entering the 30 degrees north latitude zone, which is also an unsolvable mystery in the world, and no one can find a reasonable explanation.
It was here that I learned what the wind is, and the wind I have experienced before is almost like a fan.
People simply can't stand here! In the wind, we are like pieces of paper, as if we can be swept up to the sky by nature's casual breath, and I feel that I can't go any further.
We brought goggles and covered our heads with jackets, and although our bodies were not cold, we could not stop the violent wind.
Hugo told me in the live call headset how to activate the hidden spikes under the shoes so that I could fix my footsteps. At the same time, it also made me activate the support equipment in the assault suit. After a few operations, I was able to stand still in the wind.
"It's cool!" I couldn't help but burst into a foul language in my excitement.
"Black Hawk! No swearing! Hugo's voice came from the headphones.
I replied with some embarrassment, "Yes!" Sorry team leader. ”
Such a harsh natural environment is no longer a problem for me, and I am a little surprised. Although I was reminded by Hugo, it didn't affect my mood. I strode forward and moved on, less than a kilometer away from our goal.
I raised my guard and thought as I walked, "How did the missing plane get here in this climate?" And it's not a crash, it's a disappearance, it's too incredible. ”
Hugo had previously checked the situation at our destination through his identification system, and there was nothing there. However, satellites are not omnipotent, and we still have to go and confirm them in person before we can know. I thought what if we got there and didn't find anything?
Of course, I just think about it, and how to deal with it is a matter for Hugo to consider. My task now is to ensure the safety of the route, and it is all under my control as the No. 1 pioneer to go where there is danger.
"Wait a minute!" Hugo suddenly said in the headphones. The five of us immediately stopped on the spot, I subconsciously raised my gun to guard around, and Shen Hao also aimed the muzzle of the gun in the direction behind me.
We approached Hugo to make sure there was no problem, and he was erasing the snowflakes from the goggles and the positioning system screen, as if he had found something and was trying to identify it.
Our color-changing jackets had now turned icy white with the icebergs around us, and I had to make out the other four people so close that I needed to make out the other four.
I approached Hugo and asked, "What's wrong?" Any questions? ”
Hugo waited for a while before replying: "Just now when I was scanning the terrain twenty kilometers around the destination, I found that there seems to be a moving target in the direction south of the destination, and now I am confirming it. ”
I know that this is not the right time to visit the mountains, and the people I will meet are most likely not tourist adventurers. What's more, the icebergs here are steep, and the blizzard can blow people away, who will run here to find death.
The only explanation is that the other party and our destination are the same.
The incident of the disappearance of the plane itself is full of strangeness, and I don't believe it if it wasn't a man-made incident. In fact, before I set off, I had a feeling that there was a high chance that I would run into an enemy from nowhere. Their goal is also very clear, it is not Dr. Feng Jiutian himself, or her research results.
Just now, when Hugo was checking the terrain, he suddenly felt as if he saw something moving. He immediately called to stop, and the team pulled back the map to search carefully, but after rummaging for a long time, he didn't find anything. He wasn't sure if he had seen it clearly, but a sense of potential crisis rose in his heart. He thinks that he is not delusional just now, that something must be quietly moving, and that the target is also moving towards our destination.
After another period of fruitless searching, Hugo gave up the idea of finding the target in the positioning system. He said to all of us in a very sure tone: "Some people are also approaching our destination, and judging by the direction, they are most likely coming from Nepal. From now on, everyone must pay special attention to vigilance, and if they can avoid the eyes and ears of our satellite, it will not be easy for those who come. ”
We said yes and moved on.
It was still me who was in the lead, and I picked up the pace. Although Hugo said that the other party was much farther away from our destination, I was already anxious that these strangers must not be allowed to get to the place where the plane disappeared before us.
With the racers, it was different and we started to get nervous and careful.
I secretly cursed these shameless robbers in my heart, and what I didn't have would be obtained by such despicable acts as stealing and robbing. I know that it is most convenient to eat ready-made, but I also want to see if the gun in my hand agrees.
It doesn't matter if the plane crashes or goes missing, but in this environment, I don't think that beautiful Dr. Feng will survive. In fact, the most important task of our operation is to retrieve those important information, if there is an enemy who wants to come and rob them, I don't need to think about killing them.
The environment around us was already very harsh, and the increasing snowstorm was seriously affecting our line of sight, and the five of us had reached the point where we had to be tied together with ropes, otherwise we would easily fall apart.
Just when we were less than a kilometer away from our destination, a wall of ice with no end in sight appeared, blocking our eyes.
This wall of ice appeared very suddenly, as smooth and neat from top to bottom as a knife, like a large mirror made of ice, and even the high-tech identification system in Hugo's hand did not notice its existence.
Now satellites can't help, after all, it's just auxiliary equipment, and it can't be exhaustive.
I wanted to see if I could get around this ice wall from both sides, Hugo said it was useless, although the height of this ice wall could not be seen from satellite images, but the width could be roughly judged, at least not less than two kilometers. Although we had no problem getting around the two-kilometre road, Hugo suggested climbing over the ice wall because of the possibility of an enemy approaching.
I said that I don't even know how high this ice wall is, and that it might take more time to climb over it than to take a detour. Hugo was sure that the ice wall would not be more than 150 meters high, because it would be impossible to exceed 200 meters according to the contour ratio of the surrounding ice peaks.
In order for everyone to climb over the ice wall, one person had to climb it and then lower the rope, and I naturally took the brunt of this task.
I smacked the ice wall with an ice axe a few times, and found that it was simply indestructible, except for a few white spots.
It wasn't a problem, I removed my backpack and pulled out a special set of equipment from it.
The equipment is called "wall clothing", which is said to be clothing, but in fact, it is only the limbs, and it is used on the hands and feet respectively. The wall coat does not mean wall clothing, and the correct interpretation is the clothing of the gecko. Wearing it, one can crawl up and down on an extremely smooth surface, like a gecko.
I've seen this breathtaking gear in movies before, and I've always thought of it as fiction. In fact, in the year 2000, the secret of gecko climbing the wall had been solved by the Kayla Otem team and Robert Ford in the United States.
In 2008, the first pair of gecko gloves appeared, when a female amateur climber named Volinsky designed gecko gloves based on this research theory, and successfully climbed a vertical wall, which earned Walinsky the title of "gecko girl".
Of course, our wall coat is naturally much stronger than that glove after scientific improvement, and this research result has surpassed all countries in the world, but it has been classified as top secret by our country.
A gecko can hold its entire body on a wall for days on just one foot, and we've developed a wall coat that can withstand a weight of about 500 kilograms, so I don't have a problem with that weight.
After I put on the wallcoat, all four team members came over to help me fix the locks of the wallcoat.
Shen Hao helped me tie the safety buckle in his hand while babbling to me to pay attention to safety, don't look down and a series of precautions, I saw that he seemed to be quite nervous, so he told him that if I fell down, I must catch me.
I was joking nonsense, Shen Hao didn't say anything, but An Beimo suddenly used a force and almost strangled my hand.
"You'd better keep your mouth shut and stop talking nonsense when you're on a mission!" Her unhappy voice, combined with the temperature of the icebergs around her, made it even colder.
After Hugo and Seven Stars fixed it for me, they only said "Be careful!" But the voice is also very concerned.
I really didn't take such a wall of ice seriously. I moved my hands and feet back and forth, feeling that they were all firmly tied, and I waved to the other four teammates and walked towards the ice wall.
I tested it on the ice wall with my hands, and the adsorption was excellent, and I didn't see it move even a little when I used my best strength to shake it. However, this was a risky business, and I did not dare to be careless, so I tested all the wall clothes on all my limbs and made sure that there was no problem before I started to climb upwards.
