In the Arctic Circle, only a few places, such as Greenland, have land glaciers, and the rest of the world is mostly ice floes.

And the place where Jiang Shouyun and the others came was the Peterman Glacier in Greenland.

At 81 degrees north latitude and 61 degrees west longitude, it is about 1,000 kilometers from the North Pole, making it the northernmost glacier in the world.

"On August 25, 2007, images taken by NASA satellites showed that a glacial splitting event occurred at Peterman Glacier, forming a giant iceberg with an area of about 260 km, and losing about one-quarter of its ice floes."

"This is the largest glacial split in the Arctic in nearly 40 years," Karl explained. ”

Peterman Glacier?

Hearing this, Caesar's expression was a little surprised, and he frowned and asked, "If I remember correctly, in 2005, a 66-square-kilometer Iceland broke off from an ice shelf in the northern part of Ellesmere Island, Canada. ”

"That Iceland is the 'Peterman Glacier', right?"

In other words, if there is something in the glacier, it is likely that the real place of origin is "Ellesmere Island" in Canada.

Karl nodded and added: "It is equivalent to 4 Manhattan Islands in New York, which was divided not long ago, and is about 160 meters thick, which is equivalent to half the height of the Empire State Building in New York. ”

In the past year or two, they had expected that the Peterman Glacier would split up with ice floe, but they didn't expect it to split so quickly, let alone so large.

"These changes remind me of the group of suspicious neurotics in the equipment department, I hope it won't be said by those crows." Hearing Karl's explanation, Fingal was a little discouraged.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Karl raised his eyebrows, "Isn't the imaginary enemy of that group of guys in the Equipment Department already the ground-penetrating bombs and nuclear weapons of the US military?" ”

He graduated several years earlier than Alyosha, but his impression of the armament department was also "psychotic".

There was a Valkyrie-like woman in their class who applied to join the Equipment Department.

That girl was so strong and brave, learned to speak neurotic words and do neurotic things, and also learned to eat junk food and play the mentally handicapped games of the next era, which won the favor of the entire equipment department.

But in the end, he was defeated in front of Director Akadulla.

The valiant girl walks into Director Akadulla's office and waits for the final interview.

The men's urinal hangs right next to Director Akadulla's desk, across from the couch where she sits.

Director Akadulla did not sit behind his desk and wait for her, but shhh

"Cheer up! Perk! Xiaoqiang, don't be discouraged! You can't die yet! If the world is destroyed one day, it will depend on you to pass on the genes and fire of mankind! ”

No matter how heroic and strong the girl is, she will run away when she sees this scene.

Carl really couldn't imagine how strange the armament department could be.

"The imaginary enemy of the Equipment Department has long since become an apocalyptic disaster, such as an asteroid hitting the Earth or something."

Jiang Shouyun also felt a little funny: "After the group of people from the equipment department watched "2012", they began to discuss the possibility of melting glaciers and completely submerging the earth by floods. ”

They even wrote an application to Angers for additional funding for the construction of the tenth waterproof barrier.

In this way, even if the earth is flooded, Vat Alheim will still be safe and sound, and will preserve the fire of mankind like Noah's Ark in the Bible.

Between words, Jiang Shouyun looked up at the huge glacier fault in the distance.

At first they could see the icebergs and the cliffs, but now they were gone, and all they could see was a white expanse.

There is only an endless mirror-like glacier, reflecting the blue skirt in the dim sky.

The total volume of ice and snow contained in Greenland is about 3 million cubic kilometers, accounting for 9.7%~11% of the total volume of glaciers and 7~8% of the total freshwater in the world.

If all the snow and ice in Greenland melt and the global sea level rises by 7.5 metres, the unfounded fears of the Armament Department may indeed come true.

"There's nothing in this place."

Fingal stretched his neck with a probe and looked into the depths of the fault layer, and said helplessly: "If you really can't do it, go back, can't you go down and have a look?" ”

Caesar and Chu Zihang also looked down, and their faces were also a little red.

Although they did a good job of protection, and the two of them were A-class hybrids, they felt a little unbearable to be washed by wind and snow all day long in this kind of place.

“……”

Jiang Shouyun frowned slightly, holding a flashlight in his palm, looking at the depths of the fault.

He always felt that there was something here, but when he looked closely, he found nothing.

"What's that?"

Jiang Shouyun suddenly saw a long plastic film, writhing and flying under the ice in front of him.

"Damn it!" Carl also saw it and couldn't help but curse.

The Inuit call the Arctic Ocean their pure home, but human creations have begun to pollute the sea.

Click!

Jiang Shouyun stretched out his long knife and cut the ice softly.

Grabbing the plastic film, frowning and looking closely.

The "plastic film" has flowing patterns, and it looks like a brilliant cloud brocade.

No, it's not.

It's not some plastic film, it's ...... The skin that sheds from some kind of creature?

But judging by the size of the epithelium, the creature was seven or eight meters long, with dense scales on its body.

At this moment, a leading husky suddenly turned his head to look behind him.

"Woohoo!!"

It bared its teeth and whimpered, and then all the sled dogs began to shout, a menacing growl coming from its throat.

Caesar and Chu Zihang at the end glanced at each other, sat up straight vigilantly and looked in that direction.

This is Greenland, and the wind is howling.

Silence was obscured from all the slightest sounds, and when the enemy touched them, they couldn't feel the guys, because they were hiding under the ice.

"That's ...... What is it? ”

A dark shadow was swimming at high speed beneath the ice beneath their feet,

The hairs on their bodies stood on end, their muscles tensed, and one hand reached behind their backs to grasp their weapons.

Caesar's golden pupils ignited silently, and the active dragon rules began to spread.

However, his wind demon could not enter the ice surface of dozens of meters, and could only feel that something terrifying was swimming silently.

It seems to be able to drill through the cracks of flowing water, but when it swims away, it will not stir up too much current, it is like a shadow hidden in the current.

At this moment, the two suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, and loud sounds came from all directions, especially from the bottom of the sea.

The two of them looked under the ice, blurring their vision, and saw only huge pillars of dust rising from the bottom of the sea, writhing excitedly as if singing hymns.

Click! Boom!!

At the last moment, a huge mouth burst out from below and bit at the two of them in a tyrannical manner.

The layers of sharp teeth in the mouth present a neat and subtle fractal structure, like a flower made of layers of white bones, and the center of the flower is a deep black hole.

Just as the monster was about to engulf the two, a figure instantly came to the two of them and drew the long black knife and slashed it.

Poof!

The knife pierced the monster's abdomen fiercely, and after Jiang Shouyun's body retreated like a shadow, the monster's abdomen spurted out a sour liquid.

"Shhhhh The monster danced in pain and hissed in pain, between the cry of a lizard and the cry of a baby, like a scraper scraping the eardrums.
