Chapter 247 Ice Age
After saying this, Spade closed the door, and when Bai Liu opened it again, he had disappeared into the vast snow.
...This is probably what it means to play fair with him?
Bai Liu raised his eyebrows, closed the door, pinched his numb fingertips, tucked his jacket, and turned around to see Tang Er hitting them.
Tang Erda also put on a thick jacket, and exhaled a burst of white breath when he opened his mouth: "—The power supply in the house is turned off. We need to overhaul and open the insulation system, otherwise we will all freeze to death."
"Do you know how to repair it?" Bai Liu asked.
Tang Er nodded: "I have trained in a similar extreme environment, and the basic equipment will be used, but the maintenance has to be checked outside. The wind speed here is too high, and someone needs to hold my safety rope, otherwise I will be caught by the wind. blow away."
"I'll follow you." Mu Sicheng simply put on protective clothing.
The two quickly fastened the safety rope around their waists, opened the door, and after a few difficult moves in the snow that was raging to the point of closing the door, they went out.
Not long after, Mu Sicheng and Tang Erda came back with the safety rope, and Bai Liu, who was standing by the door, immediately closed the door.
In just a short while, the snow that blew in from the crack of the opened door had condensed into ice cubes and stuck behind the door. Mu Sicheng's teeth chattered and he wanted to remove the safety rope from the hook beside the door, because his hands were too cold. It didn't take off after a few times, but Mu Ke helped to take it later.
"Too...too Nima's cold!" Mu Sicheng's feet jumped from the cold, and he gasped with his hands, trying to warm himself up.
Bai Liu noticed that Mu Sicheng just went outside for a short trip. In less than ten minutes, his hands were frozen to blue, red and purple, and his knuckles could not bend, and he looked like a gangrenous lump. flesh.
When the light bulbs turned on in sequence because the power supply was restored, Bai Liu could really see where they were.
In front of it is a very narrow, long and low ventilation duct. The walls are made of solid container shed boards, which are generally used to build temporary residences on construction sites. Bright incandescent light bulbs hang on the top of the head. There are seals embedded around the windows of the house, and through the half-frozen windows you can see the blizzard that keeps roaring outside.
His eyes fell to the end of the ventilation duct, where a sign was crookedly nailed, which read: [Edmund South Pole Station (Edmund South Pole Observation and Research Station)].
Bai Liu looked at the sign for a few seconds, then lowered his head and opened his system panel, which was filled with notifications that he had not checked.
[System Tip: Welcome to the game "Ice Age"]
[System Tip: Players get the main task of the game - Global Warming]
[Game background reminder: A year ago, a sudden and never-ending heavy snow swept the world from Antarctica. With the decrease in temperature, the diversion of ocean currents, and the thickening of clouds and other meteorological problems, all parts of the world began to freeze...]
[...The Antarctic ice sheet seems to have become a diffuse disease and began to spread throughout the world. Meteorologists said that we were forced to enter another major ice age since the fourth ice age due to some force majeure. Unsuspecting humans are dying in large numbers because of food shortages and cold weather...]
[Subsequently, all scientific research activities in Antarctica were forced to stop, and you, an explorer who got inside information, someone told you that all this was related to a dark scientific research activity in Antarctica. After joining his own team and receiving funding from the Antarctic United Glacier Company, he came to Antarctica and wanted to explore the cold secrets under this layer of ice. 】
[You came to the South Pole by plane, but lost your way in the snowstorm. In an emergency, you found this abandoned observation station on the snow and forced a breakthrough to avoid the snowstorm. 】
[——Please remember, players, that you are a great explorer! Please have the courage to explore and discover, find out the truth, and make the world warm again! 】
[Current progress of the main mission: 0%]
[Player's current location: Edmund Antarctic Pole Observation and Research Station]
At this time, Mu Sicheng also read the introduction of the game, and couldn't help but complain: "What is this? Isn't the real world warming? What the hell is going into the Ice Age?"
Liu Jiayi was trapped in a thick down jacket. Compared with adults like Bai Liu, children were more sensitive to temperature. As soon as she entered the game, she found all kinds of clothes for herself to wrap herself like a ball.
After reading the introduction of the game, she frowned and reminded: "Bai Liu, the game pool simulates a league. In the game pool, our store trading system is closed, and we can't buy any items from the store. If this is the background, food And warm clothing is our number one priority."
"Otherwise, if we can't stay for a few days, we'll have to take it and quit the game on our own initiative."
Bai Liu couldn't agree more with Liu Jiayi's statement, he nodded and gave the order: "Mu Ke will go to search the warehouse for food storage, Tang Erda and Mu Sicheng will overhaul the whole building, and then be the basis for our exploration, Jiayi and I will Go to the control room and find out if there is a black box or diary of what happened here a year ago."
"Okay/OK/ Got it!"
After everyone took orders, they dispersed. Bai Liu and Liu Jiayi searched for the control room of the base. Fortunately, the base was not very large, and they found it soon.
It's a pity that the door of the control room was open, and it was covered with snow, which is now slowly melting under the blowing of the heating system that has resumed operation.
Looking at the console covered with frost and snow, Liu Jiayi rubbed her hands together and sighed maturely: "It looks like the black box will have to wait for Tang Er to call them over to see if it can be repaired."
Bai Liu squatted down, he took out a chisel with gloves on, and began to tap against the crevices of the drawer—these places were also sealed by the frozen ice, and the ice must be removed before opening the drawer.
Fortunately, the ice in these places is not thick, and the white willow fell off after only two chisels.
Bai Liu opened the stumbling drawer. There was no accumulated dust in the drawer, but it was covered with a layer of condensed snow. After brushing it off, he could see that some black leather notebooks were stored here.
According to Bai Liu's common sense, in horror games, this kind of book is generally used for the plot, that is, there must be records such as diaries in it.
But the moment he opened it, he stopped.
Liu Jiayi, who was rummaging through other drawers, saw that Bai Liu was holding a book still, so she probed over curiously: "This book is obvious at first glance, why don't you speak..."
The moment Liu Jiayi saw the content on Bai Liu's book, she paused subtly.
The book is neat and smooth, and it is all printed in English.
As a social animal from the society, Bai Liu will encounter a lot of English reading when playing horror games, but it is relatively simple, and looking at this kind of large and dense English with a lot of professional vocabulary Research Diary...
Bai Liu frankly closed the book: "Wait for Mu Ke to see it, I don't understand."
I also can't understand Liu Jiayi: "..."
Although she knew intellectually that it was normal for Bai Liu to not understand, after all intelligence and language ability were not the same thing, but why did she feel so strange...
Edmund Observatory is not very big, with a total of four floors.
The first floor is the storage area. Fuel, food, fresh water, and outdoor clothing are stored in different warehouses on this floor. They are wrapped in layers of plastic sheets. The two helicopter hangars are exposed outdoors, and they are simply sheltered by a shed.
The second floor is the living area, with a sauna room, dining room, office area, and several computers that I don't know how long.
The third and fourth floors are dormitories, or cabins, very narrow, with two bunk beds crammed into the space of less than five square meters, and there is a shrinking warmth in the crowd.
Judging from the dormitories and dormitories, the staff capacity of the entire base should be around 80 to 100. Usually, the people living there should be quite crowded, but now it is empty and there is a strange liveliness.
Liu Jiayi's gaze swept over the noodles that were solidified and pulled up on the dining table, half of the moldy potatoes cut on the chopping board, and the gas switch that hit the fire.
"People here should be in a hurry." She concluded.
Bai Liu walked down from the corner of the third floor, and slightly corrected Liu Jiayi's theory: "--or it was a hasty kidnapping."
Liu Jiayi looked up.
Bai Liu shook a pair of panties and socks in his hand: "I found them by the bed in the dormitory. In such a cold weather, I don't think anyone would rush out without even wearing panties and socks."
Liu Jiayi asked: "Is it possible that these people were frightened by something, and then ran away without even wearing clothes?"
"It's unlikely." After inspecting the warehouse, Mu Ke came up the corner stairs on the first floor and looked at Liu Jiayi, "I just went to see their showroom, and the staff at Edmond Observatory are all professional mountaineers and firefighters. The team members, as well as the scientific research team members who have received considerable training, have won a lot of honors and have been tested in various extreme scenarios, and it is difficult to scare them all like this in general."
Mu Ke said and glanced at the food that was only half moved.
"They should be very clear that here, running away without taking anything is no different from sending them to death."
Mu Sicheng and Tang Erda came down from the roof on the fourth floor. The two of them just went to repair the radio stand.
Mu Sicheng's cheeks were blue from the cold, and after he got down, he found a dormitory and shrunk into the bed, and started kicking his legs and shaking like crazy.
Tang Er played a little better, but when he took out the gloves, Bai Liu saw that a bloody skin had also been glued to the palm of his hand, and the bloody wound was exposed in the air, but not a drop of blood flowed out.
Because it was so cold, the blood was congealed.
Tang Erda noticed Bai Liu's gaze and explained, "The erection platform is too cold, and there is no way to adjust the tightness of the equipment through the gloves, so I took out the gloves and touched it—"
"—And then a piece of skin was glued down by the metal on it?" Bai Liu continued the second half of the sentence.
Liu Jiayi took out the antidote spray and sprayed it on Tang Erda's palm, and the wound slowly healed, but Mu Sicheng, who was so cold on the bed, couldn't get better.
The antidote heals the wound, but there is no cure for the cold.
"I saw the weather and thermometer outside." Tang Er shook his recovered hand, and he solemnly raised his eyes to look at Bai Liu, "—the low temperature of over fifty degrees below zero, this extreme weather cannot be left for long, We're going to freeze to death soon, get out of here--" The game...
At this time, Mu Ke, who was looking at the black book handed to him by Bai Liu, turned blue and white, and he interrupted Tang Erda with a trembling voice: "——This Edmund Observatory is studying the corpses sent by the Heresy Processing Bureau. piece."
Tang Er's heart skipped a beat, and he denied it without hesitation: "Impossible, the things of the Heresy Administration are stipulated by a convention and are not available to any country for economic, military, cultural and political scientific research, the only scientific research of the Heresy Administration. The purpose can only be containment!"
"The people from the third district are here to meet up, and there are five people who are escorted from the first district. They can't let others study the things of the Heresy Administration!"
Mu Ke exhaled a long breath, and the water vapor formed a layer of snow and frost in front of his eyes, and his voice was very soft:
"What if I told you that the plane carrying the heretical body parts crashed on the spot when it reached the South Pole, and the five escorts on the plane died suddenly on the spot?"
The author has something to say: everything in the story is my nonsense, and it must not be taken seriously, my friends!
