Chapter 69: Mwanza
Second, continue to ask for monthly passes and subscriptions.
――――
The African savannah is pitch black at night, and the occasional wildebeest can be heard sporadically.
Zhang Yang controlled the battle armor and rose a distance, the vertical rise brought a strong sense of weightlessness, and he felt that there was nothing abnormal, and the bonfire under his feet, and Tianhuo and the others became an inconspicuous little spot.
Zhang Yang looked around, it was pitch black, and at the thruster under his feet, the long white tail flame that was originally sprayed out was filtered by this magical layer of stealth armor, and only the surging violent air flow remained, and the infrared reaction was extremely weakened, and it was not conspicuous at all on the thermal imaging map, even if the other party had infrared night vision devices, it was difficult to find.
"It looks pretty good."
Muttering, Zhang Yang paused slightly, and continued to fly towards the sky, after Zhang Yang's two transformations and upgrades, it has far exceeded the design standards of the steel armor, and the resistance to the attack has been strengthened by Edelman alloy, and the stealth armor at this moment has greatly improved the stealth effect, and at the same time increased the upper limit of temperature resistance.
The armor soared directly to the speed of Mach 2, and soon reached an altitude of 12,000 meters, although the ground was still pitch black, but because of the arc of the earth, the atmosphere in the distance became a white line.
Flying all the way to this altitude, if it had been before, it might have been targeted by the military satellites of some countries, or alarmed the opponent's air defense network, directly provoking surface-to-air missiles, and at the moment there was still no response, obviously the effect of stealth is not bad.
Zhang Yang raised his head, and some points of light could be seen moving slowly above his head, which were satellites close to the atmosphere, Zhang Yang did not continue to fly up, the stealth effect of the battle armor had been verified, and he began to turn around and return home.
After returning to the ground. Zhang Yang lifted the stealth mode and reappeared in front of everyone, Tianhuo seemed to be very satisfied with his skills, and smiled and told Zhang Yang that there were some things that needed attention or improvement.
After the armor was put away, Sam and Bumblebee were allowed to approach, although very curious, but Sam also knew that there were some things that could not be asked, this time a mysterious symbol forced himself to the point where he is now, Sam just wants to solve the matter as much as possible at the moment, and then go back to school to enjoy a good college life. I really don't want to cause trouble.
"Where are we sleeping tonight?"
"Bumblebee, you all have a backup scanning mode, become a bigger car, and don't treat yourself badly at this time." Zhang Yang said.
Bumblebee nodded, after coming to Earth, in order to deal with an emergency. He has a lot of cars in his database, including motorhomes. While the portable toilet bathroom is nothing but that. But the wide carriage and sofa can still be simulated.
Zhang Yang circled around the RV, patted the thick door and said with satisfaction: "It's not bad." ”
Zhang Yang and the three of them each found a sofa to lie down, while the two brake brothers and Tianhuo slept directly outside, anyway, they didn't have to worry about a beast coming back to sneak attack them.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang was the first to wake up. I ate the leftover barbecue from last night, drank some mineral water, and went straight on the road, aiming for the west.
After Zhang Yang and Simon's discussion, the target this time was Mwanza. It is the second largest city in Tanzania, with a population of around 2.94 million in 2002, which is just enough to meet the requirements of the natural fire.
"Mwanza is located in the western part of Serengeti, near Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa, and is one of the more developed cities in Tanzania, where the electricity should be able to meet our needs."
Simon pointed to his alternate world map, and after the research of the two, they compared the cities near the Serengeti steppe one by one, and finally chose Mwanza, which was relatively close, and the population also met the requirements of Tianhuo to replenish energy.
Serengeti's nearby cities, in addition to Mwanza, there are several other cities, such as Masuwa, Merita, Kisesa, etc., but most of them have a population of less than one million, and there are not many large cities in Tanzania that meet the population of two million, the first city, Dar es Salaam, is located on the east coast, with a population of 6 million, but it is too far away, and they can only give up.
Arusha, the third-largest city, with a population of around 1.29 million, including the capital of Tanzania, Dodoma, also did not meet this requirement, and the distance was long, so Mwanza was the target of their trip.
"It's about 250 kilometres from Serengeti to Mwanza, where we are, and we can get there in the morning, and most of the terrain in the middle is grassland, so it's safe to be safe."
Zhang Yang added a few words, and Simon nodded.
At this moment, Zhang Yang and his party were moving in the direction determined by Simon's positioning device, and the Bumblebee and they had become more suitable for field operations, and in about four or five hours, they would be able to reach the vicinity of Mwanza.
"And voila! That's a herd of African elephants! It's the first time I've seen so many! Sam exclaimed.
"That's a family, little guy, the leader is the patriarch, see, that pair of elephant tusks can easily pick you to fill in."
Simon, like a good father, explained this to Sam.
Zhang Yang quietly looked out of the car, a large group of African elephants led by adult bull elephants, through the grassland looking for food, for Zhang Yang their car, just a casual glance, and then continued to look down for food, because there are often humans here to travel, so they are not afraid of people.
In the real world, the filming staff of "The Great Migration" and "The East African Savannah" were forbidden by the staff to meddle in any animal affairs, and it was necessary to ensure that the natural laws of nature were implemented here.
Rescuing a small antelope caught by a leopard may save the small antelope, but it may make the leopard starving, and may even affect its life, any action of humans here is a double-edged blade, and it needs to be very careful.
In order to be able to photograph the animals up close, the film crew came up with various ways to disguise the camera as dead objects such as tree stumps and stones, as well as fisheye lenses and various long-distance lenses, otherwise, Zhang Yang's whereabouts would have entered the field of vision of this group of people.
From east to west, they traversed the Serengeti, the Grumet Wildlife Sanctuary, and then past Lake Victoria, Africa's largest lake, taking in countless landscapes unique to the African savannah along the way.
Wildebeest, African lion, hyena, elephant, gazelle, zebra, giraffe, black rhinoceros, leopard, wild boar, vulture...... Countless species of creatures are active in this land that maintains its pristine natural appearance.
Five hours later, they reached the vicinity of Mwanza.
This tropical city, because of its close proximity to Lake Victoria, is different from the dry tropical cities, has a relatively developed fishing and fishing port, is the country's largest cotton distribution center, because of the large number of people, so far outside the city, there are already people.
Everyone parked the car near a remote hill, did not rush into the city, and Zhang Yang wore a battle armor to explore the truth first.
"Stay safe."
"Don't worry, I'm sure in my heart."
Zhang Yang nodded, disappeared in front of everyone, and then flew towards the city.
With the stealth armor, although Zhang Yang was flying in mid-air at the moment, he did not attract anyone's attention, and the early birth of the thruster was also lowered, as long as it was not too low close to the ground, it was difficult to be detected.
This feeling of flying low over densely populated areas is very refreshing, looking at countless buildings and people, all busy without knowing anything, Zhang Yang walked around the city, looking for the location of the power plant.
If Tianhuo wants to absorb electric energy, it naturally needs to find a power plant, and ordinary wires can also conduct electricity, but the electric energy absorbed by Tianhuo is too huge, and the thin wires can't withstand the violent current at all, and they may burn off on the spot, and then accidentally charge to ordinary people nearby, which is not what Zhang Yang wants to see.
The location of the power plant is still relatively conspicuous, and Zhang Yang soon discovered the location of three power plants, one is a hydroelectric power plant by the lake, and one is a wind power generation, which is relatively small, and a major thermal power generation, accounting for 70% of the city's power generation.
Zhang Yang flew back into the distance with the news, discussed with the others for a long time, and finally decided to look for an opportunity to enter the thermal power plant, which may be recharged in less than two hours according to the maximum output power of the power plant.
Still flamboyant, sneaked into the homes of several residents in the distance, made a few sets of local clothes to change on, and then made Bumblebee and the others change their appearance again, turning into four ordinary cars, and even Tianhuo turned into an ordinary Volkswagen, quietly avoiding the checkpoint on the main road, and entered the city along the path.
“#%¥#@%”
Tanzania's official languages are Swahili and English, and Swahili is known to no one to know it, but English is still fine, pretending to be a passenger from outside the country, and buying some local tropical fruits in dollars, as well as a detailed map of Mwanza.
"Welcome to the next visit!"
The dark-skinned Hehe woman waved goodbye to Simon and his party, who took care of her business, and gave them a fresh coconut, which made Simon a little embarrassed.
When Tianhuo sucks up the electric energy, I am afraid that the entire city will have a temporary power outage, so I am embarrassed to buy some local products and make some insignificant compensation. (To be continued......)
