Chapter 303: Base 0: Aurora City

This is the South Pole. A world of ice and snow.

As far as the eye can see, there is a vast white color. The mountains are pure white and reach an average of two thousand meters above sea level, which is the highest average altitude on Earth. The ground is also white, covering 4,800 meters of ice at its thickest point. Even the wind is white, with gusts of wind mixed with ice flowers, and the average temperature here is below -55 degrees Celsius all year round.

It seems that only the sky is spotless blue. The sun is tilting on the northern horizon, and now it is the spring equinox in the southern hemisphere, and the polar day of the south pole has begun, and the sun will seem to hang on the horizon for half a year. The five-colored aurora in the sky, which flutters like a ribbon, is the only dynamic landscape on this ice field.

"Here, you don't have to worry that you can't find the north, because everywhere you go is the north. The east, west, and south directions all lose their meaning here. Ge Wei got out of the cloud car wearing a T-shirt and denim, and the low temperature and cold of more than 50 degrees below zero had no effect on him.

"The owner...... We're going to stay here, ...... How long will you stay...... Gotta ......"

There were more than 20 people behind Ge Wei, all dressed in thick down jackets, but they were still shivering from the cold. Zhou Chi was so cold that his teeth trembled, his mouth was so cold that he couldn't open it, and he couldn't speak clearly.

"We are just in time for the polar day, and now the polar day has just begun, and it will last for half a year, during which the sun will not set. Therefore, we should take advantage of this rare opportunity to carry out large-scale construction. Ge Wei stepped on an ice rock and stood on it with his hands in his hands. In this empty and ethereal world, he felt a drive that he had never had in China.

He wants to build this place into his most solid rear! Let this place become the world's fortress with the most advanced science and technology, the most developed economy, and the most powerful force on the earth!

The Antarctic continent covers 10% of the world's total land area. The area is equal to the land area of the United States plus Mexico, and is 1.45 times the land area of China.

With such a large continent, there are only a few small research stations set up here in the world, and it is no exaggeration to say that they have walked out of the research stations. Anywhere on the Antarctic continent is a place of death, and humans have not yet been able to penetrate deep into it.

"That's not to say...... Gotta ...... We're going to be here, ...... Stay for half a year...... Gotta get it," everyone was surprised when they heard Ge Wei's words.

"What about the supplies...... Gotta get it. Zhou Chi said worriedly.

"Rest assured, resupply is not a problem. The load of the cloud car is 500 tons, and a few trips can meet your living needs for half a year. By the way, what do you want? Later, I will find Zhou Chi to make a list, this is relatively close to Brazil, and I will go to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to buy first. ”

"That'...... Where do we live? ...... we have to do," Zhou Chi asked again.

"Look, there's a building there!" called out a girl, pointing not far away.

When everyone heard the sound, they found that there was indeed a flat and long building not far away.

"I see, since this is the South Pole. There must be a scientific research station here, the Amundsen Scott station in the United States!" the girl said.

"The Americans must have noticed that we were coming. Zhou Chi said.

"No, it won't. Ge Wei smiled slightly, he actually knew that there was a scientific research station for Americans here. Ground scans of the cloud cart showed that the building was swept out of the sky, and thermal imaging showed that there was no one inside the building.

Ge Wei said: "If I am not mistaken, it will take at least half a month or so for the Americans to come to this research station from China. The polar night has just ended. Americans would come here to spend the polar day and take advantage of the polar day for a six-month expedition. During this time, we were in this research station. ”

"Then let's go, I'm going to die of cold when I get out of the spaceship for a while. The girl said, immediately eliciting a response from everyone.

So Ge Wei and these twenty people came to this research station, the Amundsen-Scott station of the Americans. The crowd walked all the way to the door of the research station, and no one came out inside, obviously no one was there.

Ge Wei effortlessly broke through the door, and more than 20 people rushed into the research station. As soon as the door closed, the cold outside was slightly blocked.

Several men with experience in the wilderness helped each other find the living facilities in the research station, and found that there were diesel generators and heating equipment stored in the station. Several engineering men immediately cooperated, and the heating, which had not been used by anyone for half a year, was activated.

The girls divided the work and began to prepare the food. Snacks are always indispensable in girls' backpacks. What beef jerky, biscuits, juice all took out at this time.

As the temperature in the city gradually warms up, people sit around the heater, munching on black beef jerky and drinking domestic juice rich in additives, and men and women are full of enthusiasm.

Ge Wei looked at these people with a smile, he was here to engage in construction, they seemed to be here for a picnic.

But anyway, the construction of the meeting will not have anything to do with these people, and I have already prepared it.

Since he chose to come to Antarctica for development, Ge Wei will certainly not be unprepared.

Different from China, the first thing that must be overcome here is the harsh environment. Now it is autumn in China, and the polar day has just begun in Antarctica, and the half-year "sun that never sets" has solved the lighting problem for him. Then only the temperature remains.

Nearly 200 years have passed since the discovery of Antarctica, which was discovered by humans in 1820, and has remained unexplored. It's not that countries don't want to develop, it's just that the conditions don't allow it. The harsh environment stopped the colonists in their tracks.

Now Ge Wei has become the first person in mankind who is truly capable of colonizing Antarctica. To solve the perennial cold of Antarctica, only a closed ecosystem is needed.

A closed ecosystem, a technological plane commodity, a set of nine obsidian crystal energy pillars, priced at 3 million energy coins.

Nine pillars of obsidian crystal energy are distributed in eight directions around the perimeter, with the largest one placed at the center point, and when activated, a hemispherical dome can be opened, enveloping a vast area.

Obsidian continuously generates heat to regulate the temperature and climate within the dome, and the appropriate temperature is set by the user, whether it is to convert the ice field into a temperate climate or a tropical rainforest climate. It only takes an hour to complete.

The ecology in the dome will be recycled and will not be affected by the outside world. Such a dome can hold up a maximum area to accommodate a city.

In many high-tech planes, this kind of closed ecosystem has long been widely used, mostly for building colonies on planets with harsh environments. The technology of the ecosystem has developed very highly, and the ecosystem is very cheap.

Ge Wei bought this set for 3 million energy coins. It is already the most high-end one, which not only has the function of climate regulation, but also assists in soil transformation, rainwater circulator, a full set of plant growth programs and other package functions. In the end, we were able to build a perfect ecosystem that fully met the buyer's requirements in 20 hours!

"How can we say that this technology is the primary productive force! If this kind of technology is mastered by the people of the earth. When will the South Pole get my turn, I'm afraid the moon has already been carved up, right? Yes, when the South Pole is developed, I will develop the moon again, anyway, it is a borderless land, who has the ability to develop it. Doesn't it belong to anyone? At most, all countries in the world will be greedy, so let's go!"

In addition to this dome ecosystem, Ge Wei also bought a high-grade universal capsule, which is the most expensive thing, spending all the profits of the three bases these days. Let his plane terminal account be cleared again.

Different from the universal capsules used in the previous three bases, this time Ge Wei spent a full 100 million energy coins to buy this top-level "fortress-type capsule".

The volume of the structure of this capsule. It is ten times more than the former, and it has more functions than the former. If the first three bases are fortresses, the buildings built from this capsule will be a small city!

"You guys are here first, and I'll go out for a while. Ge Wei said to Zhou Chi and them, "Don't be surprised by what you hear later, we will live here for a long time in the future." ”

Everyone watched Ge Wei walk out inexplicably. Ge Wei walked out of the research station, rose from the sky, and flew all the way to an altitude of 3,000 meters before stopping. Then look down at the ground.

The Americans' research station has appeared as a small black dot, and the cloud carts parked next to it are all larger than it. Ge Wei's gaze swept over the area, which was extremely topography and flat, perfect for large buildings. The Americans' research station was built almost exclusively on the South Pole. After Ge Wei planned to build his own city, he would demolish the station for the Americans.

"Let's design it in a circle. The inside and outside are three-storey concentric circles, connected by a building in the middle, and the empty part can be used for many purposes, and can even be used for farming. The outer ring will be used as a residential area for workers or to host settlers from all over the world in the future, as well as for tourism. Central is the factory production area, and from here it is closed and managed, and it is the headquarters of the Eclipse Group. As for the inner ring, it will be a military fortress area, which is the most important location in the entire city, and will also become the most powerful place on the planet. Finally, build a luxurious official residence on the South Pole, what a role, the golden house is hidden or something......"

In his mind, these parameters were set through the plane terminal, and then the parameters were entered into the universal capsule, and when Ge Wei opened his eyes again, the universal capsule in his palm had already changed color.

Wrapping this capsule with a piece of true qi, Ge Wei flicked his fingers, and the universal capsule shot like a bullet from a height of three thousand meters towards the ice field below.

"Boom—"

With a deafening loud bang, the heavens and the earth shook and the earth was turned upside down! The entire Antarctic continent was shaken by the alien objects that followed!

In Ge Wei's overview, the inner ring is formed first in a flash, then the middle ring, and finally the outer ring. A three-ring concentric steel city is formed in the blink of an eye!

Even though Ge Wei had already witnessed this scene many times, and it was designed by him himself, when he saw this shocking scene, he still had the impassioned feeling of witnessing the creation of the gods.

If you build a city in an instant, anyone would think it's God's handiwork, right?

Subsequently, Ge Wei threw out nine obsidian crystal pillars, the largest one was inserted directly in front of the door of the scientific research station, and the other eight crystal pillars flew out far away, inserted in a distant place according to the standard octagonal orientation.

The obsidian on the largest crystal pillar suddenly burst into flames, and a goose-yellow curtain rose on the horizon in all directions at the same time, rapidly converging towards the center. In the blink of an eye, a huge dome appeared, enveloping an area of nearly 10,000 square kilometers, and the nascent city was located in the center of the dome's range.

"That's it! From now on, this is my No. 0 base!" Ge Wei looked down at the steel city under his feet, and a sense of accomplishment arose: "Give it a name, let's call it Aurora City."
