0306 Trip to Antarctica
Antarctica, the seventh continent in the world, the last continent on Earth to be discovered, and the only continent uninhabited by indigenous people. It is a cold world covered in ice and snow, once the last pure land in the world, the only place that has not been polluted by humans. The harsh natural environment is not conducive to the survival of human beings, but Antarctica is not a desolate and lifeless and silent territory, there are still many kinds of hardy lichens, bryophytes, and cute animals that are loved all over the world - QQ...... Oh no, it's a penguin.
Under the ice of Antarctica, there is a very ancient continent, but also a very mysterious continent, so far, people still can not know the true face of this continent, every year there will be many scientific expeditions to Antarctica, trying to uncover the secret hidden under the ice, but all in vain, it seems that there is a mysterious force has been protecting an ancient secret, and does not want the outside world to know more.
In June 2046, two months before the outbreak of the zombie plague, a strange infectious disease broke out in a multinational joint scientific research base known as the 'axis of the world', which was built on the Antarctic pole, and almost all scientific researchers contracted this strange disease.
At first, just a few staff members who went out to collect stratigraphic samples contracted the disease, but it didn't attract much attention, thinking it was just a common cold. But as time went by, not only did the illness of those people not reduce, but became more and more serious, and many strange symptoms appeared, such as mental trance and body ulceration, which attracted people's attention, but at this time, the people of the entire base had already contracted the same disease.
When people wanted to find the root cause of the disease, someone thought of the rock samples collected by the staff, who had only fallen ill after bringing back the samples.
After examination, people were surprised to find that there was nothing strange about the rock sample, but the problem was that the drill bit used for drilling, the drill with slight rust marks, was stained with a very eye-catching, frozen blood-red flesh.
Laboratory tests confirmed that it was human body tissue. Next, countries urgently recalled the scientific researchers of all the research stations in Antarctica, and the mysterious and terrifying flesh was finally brought back to the headquarters by the scientific researchers of the Kowloon Group.
Two months later, the zombie plague broke out and quickly swept the world, and Antarctica was the birthplace of this plague.
The Ross Sea, where the Antarctic continent meets the Pacific Ocean, is the second largest bay in Antarctica, covered with ice all year round.
A pure white icebreaker was slowly moving forward on the almost completely frozen sea, its huge hull crushing the ice and making a creaking sound, but the hull did not shake at all, leaving a long waterway in its pass, as if it were a straight canal on the snow-covered earth.
The pure white hull almost blends in with the surrounding snow and ice, and the shape of the whole ship is also ingenious, from a distance it looks like a small moving iceberg, the only thing that makes people feel incongruous is the extremely obvious sign on the hull, composed of nine dragons around the earth, which is the symbol of the Kowloon Group.
The Kowloon Group no longer exists, but as the successor of Kowloon, Eden is the symbol of Kowloon, the only difference is that on the earth in the sign, there is a towering tree, perhaps this is in line with the legend of Eden, it was originally a tree.
Many of the sailors on board are busy, they are preparing for the landing, and now that they are in the Antarctic Circle, they will have to do a lot of work before they get ashore.
However, the whole ship is busy, but there is a group of people sitting leisurely in the small hall on the top of the ship, enjoying the beautiful Antarctic scenery, while leisurely drinking good coffee, the most terrible thing is that this group of people are all handsome men and beautiful women, but I don't know why, the beauties are all gathered around one of the men, but the others are left aside.
This person is of course Xiao Chu, at this moment he is wearing a very thin black military uniform, leaning on the recliner, sipping coffee while enjoying the gentle massage of the beauties around him.
Lin Xin on the left, Chenyue on the right, is rubbing Xiao Chu's two arms, standing behind her, but it is an adult cereal, kneading Xiao Chu's shoulders, across the table, it is Emma who is sitting with her legs folded, at this moment she is holding a book and reading it attentively, although she seems to ignore Xiao Chu at all, but her upturned little feet are rubbing Xiao Chu's legs from time to time.
"Emma, what are you reading? I've been watching it all morning......" Xiao Chu finally couldn't help but ask.
"A morning?" Emma raised her head, lifted the beautiful eyes on the bridge of her nose, then turned her head to look at the sun hanging diagonally in the sky and said, "The sun hasn't set in days, how do you know what time it is?" β
"This ......" Xiao Chu said, it is the polar day in the Antarctic Circle, but it is not easy to tell whether it is morning or afternoon, and after thinking for a long time, he reluctantly raised his hand and said: "I looked at my watch......"
"The observatories are all closed, how do you know the right time to go?" Emma glanced at Xiao Chu with great disdain and said, the most accurate time on the earth is determined by the observatory, and now in this world, the observatory has no one after the outbreak of the plague, so is there the right time there? So,The watches in their hands are calibrated according to the time of the Eden computer hostγ
Xiao Chu smiled, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "What the hell are you reading, such a thick book, it doesn't even have a name." β
It turned out that what Emma was holding in her hand was a real white paper, not only did she not have a word, but if she didn't open the book, she couldn't even tell the front and back covers.
"Antarctic Travel Handbook." Emma replied angrily, but after speaking, she looked down at her book again and ignored Xiao Chu. Of course, what she is holding in her hand is not a tourist brochure, but a thick Antarctic geographical atlas, and there are many unsolved mysteries about Antarctica, which can be regarded as a YY novel.
"Brother Chu, there are still a few hours before we can dock anyway, why don't we go back to the room to recharge! ~" But the cereal that was pressing Xiao Chu's shoulder bent over and hugged Xiao Chu's neck from behind, the posture was as close as it was, and the most important thing was that the two huge murder weapons in her chest were squeezed on the back of Xiao Chu's head without reservation.
"Hey! No way! If you want to charge, I can charge it here! But it was Chenyue who seemed to have been robbed of a toy by oatmeal, and immediately grabbed Xiao Chu's arm tightly, for fear that he would follow the cereal into the house to recharge.
Xiao Chu smiled bitterly, why did it become like this! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
