If you look at the Earth from space at this time, you can see that it is completely shrouded in a huge swirling cloud above the South Pole.
In such a harsh environment in Antarctica, it is not uncommon for such extreme weather to occur, but it should not be so sudden.
One hour it was clear skies, and the next hour the weather suddenly changed. Such a large cloud appeared over the Antarctic continent without any warning.
why
In the following years, this phenomenon became a difficult problem that climatologists around the world have been trying to solve.
But now this situation caught Vigo off guard. Thanks to the powerful power of his custom-made tracked sled, he kept pushing forward despite the wind and snow.
If a car breaks down on the way, it is no exaggeration to say that the only outcome is death.
Fortunately, as we approached our destination, the wind began to gradually weaken. In the end, although the wind speed was still at level 7 or 8, we could at least see clearly out of the window.
At this time, the window outside the window was completely shrouded in darkness, as if it had suddenly changed from daylight to night. Moreover, the radar signal was also subject to some strange interference, and the navigation system failed, so the driver had to rely on his vision to move forward.
Fortunately, Vigo was worried about the malfunction of electronic products and had prepared paper maps early. In addition, the team was already very close to the destination, so the convoy did not get lost.
Finally, the convoy slowly stopped near a cliff. Everyone braved the cold wind and walked to the edge of the cliff to look down.
I saw a bay below the cliff, but now the bay has been frozen, forming an undulating ice surface.
Across the ice and cliffs, there is a flat valley. Looking down with a telescope, you can see that there are buildings in the valley.
Vigo explained to Xie Lun: "During the Cold War, warships from both the United States and the Soviet Union arrived here. There were even sunken warships under the ice. It seems that an unknown naval battle broke out here."
As he spoke, he pointed to the valley: "Those buildings were probably built during that period."
Xie Lun frowned and said: "If this is true, it means that both countries attached great importance to this place at that time, but why did they give up here in the end? Even if the Cold War ends, the United States should not give up on its own initiative."
Vigo nodded, leaned close to Sherron's ear, and whispered: "Now I can only hope that it is because the environment here is too harsh."
At this time, Ma Wei and others had found the way down. Although it was covered with ice and snow, it could still be seen that it was an artificial ladder made of cement.
Grasping the lock hook nailed to the stone wall next to him, Xie Lun carefully walked up the stairs step by step. Suspicions arose in Xie Lun's heart.
According to James, after the end of the Cold War, the US government stopped investigation operations here in order to save money. But looking at the situation in front of us, it's clear that a small military base is about to be built here.
Will this kind of hard work be wasted just because of reducing expenses
Considering that James would not deceive himself about this kind of thing, it is very likely that James does not know the details here.
If it were not for the reason of "saving money", then there should be two possibilities for the top leaders of the US government to abandon this place.
First, the reconnaissance and exploration here has been completed, and there is no value in staying here, so this place was abandoned.
But looking at the many half-renovated buildings in the valley, Xie Lun felt that this possibility was not high.
Then there is a second possibility. Some kind of incident happened here, forcing the top officials of the US government to order a retreat, and no longer dare to send people blatantly.
If this is the reason, it can also explain why James doesn't know the inside story. After all, he is the deputy minister of the Ministry of National Affairs, and he doesn't know how many of the most core secrets there are.
Maybe US President Robert doesn't even know that there was such an overseas base in Antarctica.
"We've posted it. This time we've posted it. We're going to be famous."
Lex took crazy photos while walking along the way, murmuring in his mouth: "I knew I knew they were hiding a big secret here. Wait for me to go out and announce it all, and my research will no longer have to worry about anyone." Sponsored
"Oh, damn it, my holy land, look how much they have ruined you. To build a building in such a beautiful place is simply disgusting."
As for the dog she had just adopted, it was handed over to one of her team members to take care of.
As a superior "saint", I usually only use my mouth to express love and look for the faults and shortcomings of others.
As for the dirty and tiring work of feeding dogs and picking up feces, how could they dirty their noble hands
After all, my own hands have to complete more important tasks, such as rescuing all mankind, so I can just leave it to those stupid people.
In the end, if you take a photo together and post it online, you will still gain a large number of fans.
There is something wrong with the state of this husky. It had always been very honest, but now it is resisting desperately and does not seem to be approaching the valley at all.
The stairs are inherently steep and narrow, and they are covered with ice and snow. People need to use safety locks to fasten them and the cables nailed to the stone wall next to them, so they can barely go down step by step.
There is no way to avoid slipping, not to mention there is a dog tossing around.
The middle-aged man holding the dog fell to the ground more than ten times in less than ten minutes, averaging at least once or twice a minute.
This is equivalent to standing up and being knocked down again.
Finally, the middle-aged man became angry and slapped the dog's head twice.
This dog can take this anger
He turned his head and aimed at the middle-aged man's arm and took a hard bite.
The middle-aged uncle screamed and kicked him subconsciously. The husky also subconsciously jumped to the side, and ended up jumping out of the stairs.
There was only a whimpering sound, and the dog fell from the sky with a roar, and disappeared into the vast snow in the blink of an eye.
"Damn it, Woroyi, you killed that dog."
Lex heard the sound and looked back, just in time to see the husky fall. His butt was on fire, he jumped three feet high, pointed at the middle-aged man and cursed.
The middle-aged man was also furious. He covered his bloody arm and said angrily: "Shut up, Lex, that stupid dog bit me."
"So just kick it down." Lex glared with a pair of bull's eyes. "Besides, even if it bites you first, it must be because you were wrong. Otherwise, why would there be so many people?" Bites you and no one else.”
Wo Luoyi was so angry at Lex's words that his eyes turned black and he was speechless for a moment.
Seeing that Wo Luoyi was silent, Lex thought that the other party was too embarrassed by his education, so he couldn't speak. He continued proudly: "So Wo Luoyi, whatever you do in the future, you must first reflect on yourself." . Even if the dog does make a mistake, we should use tolerance and love to warm and influence the other person, and should not use rough methods."
As she said that, she pointed down: "How about this, as long as you get the dog back and apologize, I will forgive you and let you continue to stay in my team."
"Fuck you," Wo Luoyi couldn't hold it in any longer, pointed at Lex and yelled, "Fake Squid, damn Bichi, you are just a stupid and arrogant female donkey. Day by day, nothing but knowledge In addition to shouting in a loud voice, I will do something else to get you out, I won’t serve you anymore.”
Looking at the sudden outburst of team members, Lex was stunned. After a moment, her eyes suddenly turned red and she pointed at Wo Luoyi with a choked voice: "Oh my God, Wo Luoyi, you actually yelled at me. I did it all for your own good. You actually yelled at me, I will never talk to you again."
Wade, who had been watching the excitement, was so frightened by the last "humph" that he got goosebumps all over his body. He was so disgusted that he almost vomited out his overnight meal.
