Chapter 638 After six difficult days, the team finally arrived!
There are no years in the mountains, and there is no year in the cold weather.
The external situation in the New World is changing day by day, and disaster is quietly brewing.
But for Somo and his group who were rushing through the mountains thousands of miles away.
All this with almost no perception.
After losing a series of tools that can connect with the outside world, such as the Internet and electromagnetic waves.
Today, even naive people realize that wanting to return to Earth has become a permanent luxury.
Compared with the unreal earth in my sleep, the wasteland under my feet gradually began to become life.
Human beings seem to have returned to the primitive era, and the time under their feet has gradually become meaningless and passed quickly.
As the sun rises and sets, one after another the snow-capped mountains are left behind.
At the end of the calendar, May 6th has quietly arrived!
This day.
Located in the center of a nearby mountain range, a snow-capped mountain that no one has set foot on for a long time finally welcomed the long-lost traveler.
It is different from the caravans that would pass by here in the past.
Although the clothes of this team of travelers are neatly colored and neatly styled, if you look closely, you can see that most of them are shabby and have rips that cannot be concealed.
Their formation was a bit scattered and disorganized. As most of them walked, people worried that their feet would suddenly give way and they would fall directly into the deep valley below.
Their steps were tired and heavy, and every step left a deep footprint in the snow, making people worry about whether they could lift it up again.
Including the waist ties used to connect them, there are countless traces of sewing and repairs, and it seems that they will break at any time.
No matter from which angle you look at it, there is almost no difference between this team and those refugees who are leaving their "homeland" in panic due to disasters.
Half a moment.
Although dangers may occur from time to time.
But in the end, this team still managed to persevere through the mountainside and gradually increased their speed.
There is a platform at the top of the mountain where you can rest.
As the sun shone at noon, the group finally arrived at the small platform at the top of the snow mountain.
From this point on, the gap between this team and the refugees began to slowly become apparent.
When they reach the platform where they can rest, most of the refugees will collapse directly on the ground and "scrounge" as much time as possible to rest.
Let alone defense, if everyone can retain a residual consciousness to think about what to eat and drink later, it can be regarded as a strict discipline.
But as for this team, although most of them were stumbling, their physical strength seemed to have reached its limit.
But after standing still, the entire formation did not change at all.
At the same time, after the waist belt was removed, it only took less than half a minute for a simple defense circle to be set up along the place where the camp was set up, covering a 60-meter radius.
Do all this well.
Two men with stooped stature and unshaven beards walked out of the group. They first lay on the ground and took a look, then walked to the distance and looked at the high slope of the next mountain.
After a while.
They turned their heads excitedly and ran back, shouting happily like savages:
"Director, ahead are the last two mountains of earth and rocks. As long as we climb over here, we can reach the edge of the origin territory!"
"We're finally almost there!"
When they shouted these words, the two of them almost exhausted all their strength.
For a time, there were echoes in the valley, as if they were celebrating.
And the people below who heard these words felt as if they had been beaten to death.
My hands stopped shaking.
The legs no longer shake.
It seemed that all the fatigue from before disappeared in an instant with this news.
Simply magical!
"oh?"
"Only the last two mountains are left. Did you read it correctly this time?"
After the words fell, a person walked out from the middle of the team.
After taking a closer look, if it wasn't Somo, who else could it be?
"That's right, director, I can guarantee you!"
"Look at that!"
Liu Yai, the leader, patted his chest and although his speech was vague, he still couldn't hide his joy.
Look in the direction of his finger.
Among the mountains, you can vaguely see some sunken potholes, which are quite large.
After looking at it carefully for a while, and asking Guan Yu'an for support to get the exact answer, Su Mo was stunned and felt that all the hardships had finally come to an end!
It is difficult to go up a mountain, it is difficult to cross a mountain, and it is even more difficult to cross a snow-capped mountain.
In these six days, although no major accidents occurred, the team only climbed five mountains as they traveled towards the center of the mountains.
But when it comes to the difficulties in the middle, anyone who hears it will say it is not easy.
On the first day, the team climbed over the last two mountains of Bapan Mountain.
Because of the flat terrain and the accumulated experience, there were no accidents even though the battle was tiring.
During the entire process, not only was there no loss of life, not even a single decent danger occurred.
It was so smooth that everyone, including Sumo, subconsciously ignored the many difficulties that everyone would encounter later.
At that time, Somo also made a planned itinerary. According to the speed of climbing two mountains a day, everyone would arrive near the origin territory at noon on May 2nd.
But then, the nightmare begins!
On the second day, when everyone came to the foot of Jianshan Mountain, which towered into the clouds and had a vertical angle of more than fifty degrees, the difficulty of climbing was just like the fact that Jianshan Mountain went straight up.
Even with the map and optimal route provided by the adventurous mechanic, within two hundred meters, several soldiers lost their footing one after another and almost fell off the cliff.
Compared with the Jianshan Mountain that had protruding rocks before, the Jianshan Mountain that is now covered with heavy snow is a real natural moat.
There is no fulcrum for a person to stand on here, and no bulge to fix the body.
If it weren't for the climbing car in the middle that could provide upward support for everyone, I'm afraid that many unexpected dangers would occur even if Somo climbed by himself.
For a whole day, the progress that I had promised to cross two mountains in a row was completely delayed.
At night, I couldn't even reach the top of Jianshan Mountain and got stuck halfway up the mountain.
There was no other way. Seeing that everyone was exhausted, Sumo could only order to camp on the spot and try to rest on the mountainside where the wind was howling.
But what I never expected was.
During the process of setting up camp, an evil wind blew by, and fifty-six out of ten tools used to secure the soldiers were blown off.
The only ones left were those who were afraid of accidents before and were more prepared.
At this time, go down and pick it up, which means that the progress of the previous day's climbing has returned to zero.
If you don't go down and pick it up, if these tools are gone, no matter how bad the environment is, everyone will be forced to sleep in the wild.
So confused.
Somo could only play his trump card, took out the adventurer terminal and adjusted it to comfort level 2, forming an underground temporary shelter covering an area of 60 square meters on Jianshan Mountain.
Relying on this sixty square meters, hundreds of people were crowded inside, and it was considered a difficult night.
Early the next morning, everyone continued on their way.
Relying on the experience of climbing yesterday, the team's speed was finally much faster, and they reached the top of Jianshan Mountain near the afternoon.
But here, another problem is placed in front of everyone.
How to go down such a trembling mountain?
Using the climbing car as a fulcrum can indeed keep everyone leaning down slowly, but if more people make mistakes, there will suddenly be a downward momentum.
I'm afraid that everyone will have to be rolled down the Sword Mountain by then, and no bones will be left!
This intuitive question lies before us.
There was no other way, so Sumo had to resort to a stupid method, dividing a hundred people into three groups, with about thirty people in each group going down the mountain in turns!
And this happened to consume all the time on the second day.
On the third day, I saw the second sword mountain shaking even more than the first day.
Soma immediately issued an order.
Detour!
No matter how much time it takes, we must bypass this second sword mountain without any more accidents.
This is not only to prepare for bringing people back in the future, but also to greatly reduce the probability of possible danger.
But what no one expected was.
This detour is actually much easier than directly climbing over Jianshan Mountain.
The heavy snowfall has filled in some valleys that were originally difficult for humans to pass, greatly reducing the difficulty of passing.
In just half a day, the team miraculously bypassed Jianshan Mountain and went straight to the back!
The sudden success caused the morale to suddenly recover. Under such circumstances, Somo did not delay any longer and continued to climb Mount Crisp.
Two crisp mountains.
Because the strength of the first one was pretty good, there were no accidents during the entire climb, which was extremely enjoyable.
But when we got to the second crisp mountain, the weight of the climbing vehicle was too great, causing it to suddenly sink when it reached the top of the mountain.
In order to save the car, everyone wasted half a day in vain.
It wasn't until the fourth day that we successfully passed two crisp mountains and arrived at the last five remaining earth and rock mountains.
But it was here that we were covered by heavy snow and there were few people around.
Everyone got lost for the first time and climbed over two buildings in the wrong direction before realizing that the route was wrong and started to adjust.
In this way, it was not until the sixth day that we finally reached the mountain where we were staying.
"very good!"
"If we can find it successfully this time, you and I will reward you based on our merits!"
Taking out the telescope, Sumo looked at it for a while, and then he finally let go of his worries.
This trip into the mountain has already taken everyone eleven days.
There is only the last week left to prepare for the next major cooling disaster.
Given the current situation, there is no need to think too much about returning to the territory. Even if we set out to return now, we may not be able to keep up with the progress.
The only option left is to survive this disaster in this unfamiliar territory of origin.
Wait until the big temperature drop is over and then find a way to return to the territory.
Fortunately, because he had seen the arrival of the fishmen through the system before, Sumo had assigned the two of them to go together in advance and return with a message.
Now, even if I delay here until the next disaster and come back, I believe the territory will not be anxious enough to go out and search for it.
After thinking for a while, Sumo called Feng Tianmin and started to make arrangements again:
"Since there are only the last two mountains left, we don't have to worry. We can rest for a while after eating before leaving."
"Starting from tomorrow, only 40 people will be left to follow me to explore the origin territory. The remaining 58 people will stay on the top of the mountain, guarding the climbing car, and incidentally serving as our backup."
Being able to bring everyone here safely is the result of Sumo's extraordinary skills and all his trump cards.
As you go inside, you encounter that group of mysterious people.
Sumo asked himself, it was definitely not impossible for him to take care of the safety of hundreds of people.
In this case, we can only place half of the people on the mountain as a support first, and wait until the situation inside is thoroughly investigated and cleared before making any plans.
"Okay, I'll go down and make arrangements right away."
After more than ten days of marching, everyone has already formed a tacit understanding of cooperation.
Knowing the danger he was about to face, Feng Tianmin didn't say much, just nodded and left quickly.
For a time, Sumo, the director, felt at ease and could only lie down and wait for the meal.
"Huh, after these six days, I'm more tired than I was in the two months before I was in the wasteland!"
"In the future, the capacity of Wanli Mountain will double. I wonder who will be willing to stay in this mountain and continue!"
Soma did not waste this hard-earned rest time.
As the door of the climbing car slowly opened, Somo stretched and lay down in the car, all the tension in his body suddenly released.
suddenly.
At the same time, a light blue panel gradually appeared in front of Somo's eyes.
[Recently added permissions]: Snow (0.15%; the upper limit has been reached)
[Recently used permissions]: None
Nearly a week has passed since the last strange dream occurred and the system forced the consciousness back to the depression.
During this period, Soma tried to call the system more than once.
I want to solidify this ability to observe the territory from a distance through various methods.
But it is a pity that even Soma is willing to pay all the survival points to activate this ability.
The system also seems to be dead, with no response or reply.
However, in the process, Sumo also gradually came up with several rules.
First.
In the threat column, before leaving the territory, the shielding level of 1,000 points is completely sufficient and there will be no increase.
But after leaving the territory, if the time exceeds three days, it will start to increase at a rate of about 1% per day.
If a higher level of shielding cannot be added in time.
The maximum limit is that Somo can leave the territory for three months.
This is because there are not enough conditions yet.
Somo couldn't test the time he spent in the ruins to see if he would accumulate threat levels on a daily basis just like the outside world. He could only keep it in his mind for the time being.
At the same time, the arrival of the murloc tribe on the other side will also cause the threat level to rise sharply, and it will also increase by a certain amount every day just like leaving the territory.
Of course, this range is very small. When measured every day, it is only about 0.05% at most, which can be ignored for the time being.
second.
The power of authority obtained through the alchemy furnace can be delivered to him as a lord through remote delivery and become a member.
But there is an upper limit to this.
An operation like burning snowflakes can only obtain 0.15% of the authorized power at most. Even if you use it all, the second acquisition will still be stuck at 0.15% and there will be no increase.
third.
Although I had unintentionally unlocked a new way to use permissions before, I still have only a few clues about how to use them again.
If you want to trigger it again, you must do a lot of experiments and be fully prepared.
Judging from the current situation, Sumo cannot continue trying if he is not satisfied.
These three points.
In the past six days, Sumo has conducted comprehensive research on the newly added changes.
At the same time, there are changes to the territory.
In terms of the daily daily report, Somo has also made many new discoveries and developments!
