Chapter 484: The Polar
On the dark starry sky, dotted with stars, a colorful aurora hangs horizontally in the sky like a curtain, stretching for many kilometers from east to west, extremely beautiful and gorgeous, but such an extreme beauty, only a few people can enjoy it.
Suddenly, a figure appeared at an altitude of nearly 100,000 meters, the silver liquid kept circulating around his body, counteracting the gravitational attraction of the ground in the face of him, and the next moment, countless silver liquids rushed towards the surrounding auroras, just a light sweep, countless auroras were like moths to a fire, absorbed into the silver liquid.
What is the aurora, the aurora is because the solar wind enters the earth's magnetic field, and the brilliant and beautiful brilliance appears at night at high altitude in the area near the north and south poles.
The solar wind is a stream of charged subatomic particles ejected by the sun, a powerful stream of charged subatomic particles that can cover the earth, and is therefore in the plasma state.
The solar wind flows around the Earth above the Earth, hitting the Earth's magnetic field at a speed of about 400 kilometers per second. The Earth's magnetic field is shaped like a funnel, with the tip facing the north and south poles of the Earth, so the charged particles emitted by the Sun settle along the "funnel" of the Earth's magnetic field and enter the polar regions of the Earth.
The upper atmosphere of the poles will glow when bombarded by the solar wind, forming the aurora, which is called the aurora at the south pole and the aurora at the north pole.
Ling Xiao's position at the moment is nearly 100 kilometers above the center of the geomagnetic North Pole, and the strong magnetic field of the earth also has a certain effect on these charged particles, so when Ling Xiao borrowed the ability of the gods and demons, the corresponding magnetic force was added to the gravitational pole, and the gravitational magnetic force was unified, and these dotted particles with a certain magnetic force were immediately attracted into the gravitational poly.
As for the gods and demons, it didn't know where to wander for a long time, after all, this kind of energy body, even if it was quite beneficial to it.
It is important to know that the aurora is beautiful, but the energy it casts in the Earth's atmosphere can be compared to the total amount of electricity generated by power plants around the world.
The time has entered the middle of October, in the area above 79 degrees north latitude, has already fallen into the state of polar night, and in this environment, I don't know how long has passed, when Ling Xiao absorbed the gravity of the aurora borealis, he teleported, back to the ground 100 kilometers away.
At this time, in a hidden bay on the west side of the Smith Strait, Ling Xiao stood steadily on the sea, in front of a cliff, pressed a button on the edge of the cliff, and the next moment, a secret door about 50 meters wide and about 20 meters high opened a gap, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Xiao had disappeared.
At this time, in the secret door, is a huge underground base that is close to the completion of the transformation, the first sight after entering the secret door, is a hundred meters wide, bottomless water lake, this water lake leads directly to the ocean currents outside, but it is not like the outer ocean has formed thin ice, but alive, very warm.
At this time, the average daily temperature of Ellesmere Island is already around minus 10 degrees, and even with the passage of time, the temperature is gradually decreasing, and on the winter solstice, the temperature here will drop to about minus 50 degrees, which is extremely cold.
And in this secret base, everything is cold as if it is isolated, as if it is back on the warm continent, which makes people feel comfortable.
Among the space carriers on the water lake, except for a few people on duty at this time, not many people stayed on the mothership, and more people entered the base and rested in their own rooms.
The entire base is only more than 40 people, each of whom has a room of nearly 100 square meters, including bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms.
As for the general structure of this base, Ling Xiao did not let others interfere more, but after others came up with an architectural drawing based on the transformation of the secret base of S.H.I.E.L.D., he opened it up himself.
You know, from the list of gods and demons, he can borrow Jenny Pereira's ability to manipulate earth and rock, and use it to open up an underground secret base on an island, which is very suitable.
"There's no movement!" Ling Xiao enters the Helicarrier's control room, where only Victoria Hand and a technician on duty are present.
Since the opening of this secret base, Hand has never left the Aerospace Helicarrier, she has never rested in the room that Ling Xiao opened for her, and all of her food, drink, and Lazar are all on the Mothership, and from this aspect, you can also see the paranoia in her character.
"Nope!" Hand swept his eyes and could only scan the radar within a hundred miles, shook his head slightly, and said: "The US fighters at the Thule base still take off for patrol in the morning and evening according to the usual practice, and there is nothing abnormal, and they have returned to the base." ”
Located on the northwest coast of Greenland, 60 kilometers north of Tulle, Thule Air Force Base is the northernmost base of the U.S. military, housing the 12th Air Force Early Warning Squadron, one of the five ground-based radar systems of the North American Defense System, which was taken over by the U.S. Air Force Command as early as 1983.
The main mission of the 12th Air Force Early Warning Squadron is to provide tactical early warning and attack assessment of sea-launched ICBM attacks for the entire NATO military bloc, including the United States and Canadian militaries.
After the end of the Cold War, the 12th Air Warning Squadron's mission shifted to assist in tracking nearly 8,000 objects in orbit near the Earth, maintaining runways and airfields, maintaining the world's northernmost deep-water ports, providing logistical support, and supporting several Arctic scientific research.
With the end of the Cold War, the military status here is also declining, but whenever there is a military conflict between the United States and Russia, it is always the first place to make emergency contact with the US Department of Defense, where advanced phased array radar and pave claw radar and other equipment are deployed, as well as missile defense systems.
If it were in other places, such an advanced equipment would inevitably be able to monitor a very wide area, but in a special environment like the Arctic, the focus of his monitoring could only be the Robertson Strait and the Smith Strait to prevent the Russian army from crossing the Arctic to carry out surprise attacks.
The energy generated by the aurora often disturbs radio and radar signals, and the strong current generated by the aurora can also cut off long-distance telephone lines or affect the propagation of microwaves, causing partial or complete "loss" of current in the circuit, and even causing serious interference in the power transmission line, or even temporarily losing power supply.
In high-latitude places such as Robertson Strait and Smith Strait, since the end of September, the polar night has gradually entered the polar night, and sometimes the aurora can be seen 24 hours a day, in this environment, the number of US Air Force patrols can only be reduced to a minimum.
In the same environment, it is impossible for the Russian Navy to cross the Arctic to carry out a surprise attack, and if you are not careful, it is likely that you will never return to the meat bun and the dog.
The bay base where Ling Xiao is located is less than 200 kilometers away from the U.S. military's Tulle base, and if it weren't for the polar night environment, Ling Xiao's movements caused some time ago would probably have been discovered by the U.S. Air Force.
"Well, since there is no problem, then you should go and rest early." Ling Xiao smiled slightly, as the commander of the Helicarrier, Victoria Hand had her own lounge on the Helicarrier, and every time Ling Xiao left the secret base, she would be in the command room.
"Yes, sir!" Victoria Hand nodded solemnly at Ling Xiao and agreed.
"Hmm!" Ling Xiao smiled, turned around and left the Helicarrier, and entered the depths of the base, in his own room.
The source of electricity for the entire underground base comes from the palladium element ark reactor that Ling Xiao carries with him, and he still has several of these things, one of which can supply this secret base to operate well for four or five years, not to mention, Maya Hansen is already reversing its technology according to the information released by S.H.I.E.L.D., and it won't be long before they can make this palladium element ark reactor.
This space carrier, Ling Xiao did not plan to use it on the earth, he will always enter the universe in the future, and the power source needed at that time, in addition to the original nuclear reactor of the space carrier, Ling Xiao also hopes to add a few more spare power systems.
The power system, the weapon system, the defense system, the space carrier must be prepared for future adaptation to space operations.
S.H.I.E.L.D. has gained a lot of alien technology in the invasion of the Chiritas and the Dark Elves, and these things have also been encrypted and transmitted to the network by Black Widow, as long as these encryptions are broken, these things can be completely obtained.
