"Further on, it's the Polar Night Range......"

After March 21, the Antarctic began to gradually enter the polar night period, when the Antarctic circle will be dark, not to mention the five fingers of the hand, but the impact on human vision is definitely there.

At that time, the speed of travel will inevitably slow down to avoid any danger. After all, driving on this Antarctic glacier, it is not a thousand miles of Pingchuan without any problems, in case there are any slits or loopholes or the like, the speed is too fast to even dodge.

Sitting in a warm tent, under the reflection of the lights, Chen Yang held a tablet and made a gesture, on which there was a detailed Antarctic satellite map that would never be seen in the world, showing the general terrain and landform.

This satellite map, collected four months ago, is the latest number, and for Antarctica, which is a perennial Antarctic, there should be no change in a few months without the influence of human Dacheng.

With this electronic map, coupled with the rented satellite navigation, Chen Yang and his party can correct their own path at any time, which is the core key to ensuring this mission plan. Otherwise, if you don't navigate, you might end up in an unknown place in a day.

Inside the tent, except for Chen Yang, who was bowing his head and contemplating, there were three other people.

The shadow was still the same as in the day, sitting in the corner, silent, not knowing what to think. Putem had already slipped into his sleeping bag and was sleeping soundly.

As for Wang Rui in the end, after taking a sip of steaming coffee, he saw that the coffee in Chen Yang's cup had cooled, so he quickly added some hot water to the cup and concentrated on serving the boss.

"Alright, let's all sleep."

After drinking the last cup of coffee, Chen Yang waved his hand casually and motioned for Wang Rui to rest.

Soon only a faint emergency light remained in the tent. Everyone fell into a deep sleep.

……

……

With Chen Yang's sleep, he can let himself fall into a deep sleep at any time, each hour of sleep is equivalent to three hours of sleep for ordinary people, he only needs to sleep for two hours, and the rest of the hours are in a state of sleepiness and wakefulness, so that his metabolism slows down to the lowest point. Maintain a calorie burner level throughout the body.

"Huh?"

Chen Yang's eyes suddenly opened, and his ears trembled, taking the movement of the outside world into his ears.

"What's going on? How did the wind get stronger? ”

Before the break, the wind outside was only about two levels, why did the wind show an increasing trend in the middle of the night?

Pulling open the sleeping bag, Chen Yang put on warm clothes and walked out of the tent.

"Huhuhu......"

A large piece of wind and snow blew mercilessly on Chen Yang's face, and sure enough, Chen Yang did not hear it wrong. The wind outside is indeed much stronger, at least at the level of force five.

The climate in Antarctica is unpredictable, it is very calm in the morning, and strong winds hit in the afternoon, and the extremely cold air mass often sinks suddenly, reversing, accelerating, and setting off strong winds and blizzards, which is extremely common, but this is for Chen Yang and his party. It's not something to be optimistic about.

"The wind is still getting stronger......

Quietly feeling the strong wind for a while, Chen Yang retracted his outstretched left hand. Pull down the brim of his hat and sigh lowly.

It was already five o'clock in the morning, and Chen Yang simply woke everyone up from their slumber and asked everyone to start preparing to go.

"Hey, boss, it seems that the wind has gotten a lot stronger......"

Wang Rui got dressed and walked out of the tent. Immediately shivered by the cold wind outside.

"Maybe the weather is getting worse."

Chen Yang muttered: "Everyone hurry up, let's set off as much as possible." ”

By the time everyone finished eating as fast as they could, packed up their tents and other equipment and entered the snowmobile, the wind outside had already increased to about level 6.

A five-level wind can blow the small tree to sway. Rising to level 6 gale, even the power lines whine, especially in the Antarctic region, the wind is often accompanied by snowflakes, blowing on the face under the low temperature, but it will make people feel numb and stiff in the face for a while.

"The temperature is minus 35 degrees...... Boss, it's not good, if we keep going, I'm afraid that the wind will continue to increase and the temperature will drop further. ”

Sitting on the snowmobile, Wang Rui looked at the thermometer that had just measured the number of jù, and was afraid for a while.

"Then you want to go back?" Chen Yang glanced at him casually.

"W-no, boss, that's not what I meant."

Wang Rui naturally didn't dare to say that we should all go back, and hurriedly said: "I mean, we have to be more cautious." ”

This is complete nonsense.

Ignoring Wang Rui's embarrassment, the team turned on the lights and slowly drove forward against the strong wind.

Because of entering the polar night range, coupled with the roaring blizzard, even the specially modified headlights of the snowmobile shine out, as if swallowed by the darkness, and the visibility does not exceed ten meters, which further reduces the speed of the team.

At this pace, there are still more than 150 kilometers to go, and you will definitely have to waste a day or so on the road.

There is no way, be careful, for the safety of everyone, Chen Yang had to compromise and slowly move towards the goal. The voyage was much more difficult than the first day. After a few hours, the blizzard had strengthened to about level seven, and if someone got out of the snowmobile, they would lose the protection of the snowmobile's armor, and the wind mixed with the snow would make it difficult for him to even maintain his balance, and he had to bend down and move slowly.

The snowmobile was hampered by the blizzard, and its speed was completely reduced to seven or eight kilometers per hour, and it was often necessary to stop and send people down to check the road ahead of it.

"Hey, what's up there?"

Suddenly, someone shouted.

"What's wrong?"

"There seems to be something ...... ahead"

The tracks of the snowmobile came to a slow stop, and after Chen Yang received the previous report, he asked the two of them to go down to have a look.

Navigating the blizzard was a painful task, and the two EMER team members struggled to move through the deep snow, holding tactical flashlights towards the pitch-black objects in the distance.

Everyone looked at the place where the two team members had disappeared, waiting for the news to arrive.

The wait was not long, and after five or six minutes, the two EMER team members made the trudge back with great difficulty.

"It seems to be a camp ...... ahead"

"Camp? How could anyone come to this place? ”

Chen Yang was taken aback when he heard this answer, this place is not a place of value on the map, generally speaking, no one will come to this place, not to mention that Antarctica is so big, the number of people who are active all year round does not exceed 1,000, and the chance of meeting each other is pitiful.

They can meet people like this, is it really their luck that they are so good?

"Sir, the camp ...... It seems that there is no one. ”

"No one?"

"Yes, we didn't see any lights or signs of human activity, only tents ......"

"We were worried about some accidents, so we came back to report it first."

"Take me to see it."

Chen Yang pondered for a moment, and simply went over to see it in person.

"Wang Rui, you and Putem stay here to take care of it, and the shadow will go with me."

After a few commands, Chen Yang jumped out of the snowmobile and let the two team members lead him forward, and the shadow followed silently.

Compared to Chen Yang and Shadow's ignorance of the gale, the pace of the two team members was much more difficult, but fortunately, the camp they saw was indeed not far, only about twenty meters away, and soon the four of them came to this camp.

Five tents whirring with the wind, is the most common scientific research cold tent, ordinary tents in the wind of about 60 kilometers will be deformed and damaged, but this kind of top tent is designed for the difficult environment of Antarctica, plus the wind stabilizer can resist 12 hurricanes, this area 7 wind power, these tents are as stable as Mount Tai.

However, as the previous two team members said, there was no trace of lights or personnel activities, and in this cold wind, only the sound of tents rattling, and the rest were shrouded in darkness, like an unknown object lurking in the darkness.

Chen Yang gestured, the shadow nodded, indicating understanding, lowered his body and walked towards the other tents, while Chen Yang took the two team members and began to search from this side.

The tent was opened, Chen Yang's flashlight shone through, and the two team members behind him couldn't help but gasp and take a few steps back.

What can surprise the two EMER team members is naturally not an ordinary scene, there should be people sleeping in the tent, but now...... It is true that there is a person asleep, but this person's sleeping appearance is too terrifying, with nostrils facing the sky, round eyes, mouth slightly open, and his expression frozen and motionless.

Dead person!

Dead man inside a tent!

Chen Yang looked as usual, bent down into the tent, and checked the condition of the corpse at random, because it was in the ice and snow, and there was no professional equipment, Chen Yang could only roughly determine the time of death within at least three days to a week.

"Find out if you have any identification......

Chen Yang asked the two team members to come in and look through the contents of the tent, while he walked out and inspected the rest of the tent.

I thought that there should be dead people in the five tents and the rest of the tents, but I didn't expect that after Chen Yang looked through the third tent, he didn't find that the rest of the dead people were there, as if there was only one dead person.

"BOSS, I didn't find it."

Just then, Shadow searched the other two tents and shook his head to indicate that no one had been found.

"Is there only one person......

While Chen Yang was puzzled, he returned to the first tent again and asked, "Is there anything you found?" ”

"Sir, we found a passport."

After taking the so-called passport handed over by the team member, Chen Yang opened it, but it was a man named Ma Ke. North's Australian, the portrait in the photo is a bit similar to the corpse on the ground, it should be himself.

"Aussie ......"

Chen Yang glanced down at the corpse on the ground and ordered, "Go and call a few more people to come over and search all the things in the tent!" (To be continued......)
