Chapter 1716 Preying on Polar Bears

"It's so windy outside!" Lying in the tent, listening to the whistling wind outside, a boy couldn't help but sigh.

Coming here, it is already the third day, and it is completely within the Arctic Circle. Therefore, the sky here is not very dark. The sun occasionally only sets from the west, and then rises from the east again. .

In such an environment, it is a big challenge for the biological clock. He has not slept for two consecutive days, and his eyes are full of red blood. He hopes that he can fall asleep as soon as possible, but there is a strong wind outside.

The polar climate is quite harsh. The wedges of their tents were nailed to a depth of several meters and then frozen. Even so, they could feel the strong winds as if they could pull up the wedges at any time and blow the tents flying.

"Go to sleep." Professor Weiss said, "If you can't rest here, you will get sick within a few days. We are inaccessible here, and once you get sick, it will be troublesome."

Professor Weiss's worries are justified. They arrived here by glider and wanted to leave. The glider can't play any role. In fact, just after they landed, the glider has been disassembled. The gliders are made of wood as fuel for their daily fire.

Their return needs to be picked up by helicopters when the weather is good, or they will walk to the seaside and wait for ships or submarines to pick up.

"Yeah." The male student agreed, wanting to fall asleep again, but there was a grunting sound in his stomach again.

Not only can't sleep, but even eat, there is no appetite.

They came by glider and could only carry some military rations, including compressed biscuits and canned beef. When they first started eating, everyone felt pretty good. After three days of eating, they felt like they wanted to vomit.

At this moment, there was a sudden cold wind outside, and a figure flashed in.

Alter was dressed in white with ice hanging from his eyebrows. After he came in, he roasted his hands in front of the stove and put his automatic rifle aside.

There are a total of two tents, one for work and one for sleeping, and Oort sleeps when he comes back.

"Brother Olt, your health is so good." The male student couldn't help sighing.

I've been here for a few days, I can't eat or sleep, but I look at people, I'm alive and kicking every day, no, I just walked around the base for an hour and came back after patrolling.

"Without a good body, you really can't do anything." Alter said, taking off his boots, which were already frozen hard inside.

"You have to eat more to maintain your physical strength." Alter continued, "I think you are in a bad situation."

"I do not want to eat."

"By the way, I saw that there were polar bears in the vicinity recently. Simply, let's fight a polar bear and come back tomorrow." Alter said: "The polar bear's skin is warm, peel it off, and put it under our sleep. Keep the meat of polar bears for us to satisfy our cravings."

If you eat too much canned food, you will feel sick when you see it. Ault also knows that it is not easy for these male students to persevere, and it is also good to hunt game.

Hearing Alter's words, the male student immediately became excited: "That's great, can I go with you?"

Hunting is also what male students yearn for the most, especially the automatic rifle in Alter's hand, which looks so majestic. After speaking, the male student sat up from his sleeping bag: "How about we go now?"

Looking at the male student, Alter smiled: "Of course not, this gun of mine is used at critical times, and I can't use the gun unless it's a last resort."

This is an ordinary 6.8mm automatic rifle. The magazine is used for ammunition. It is more than enough to deal with a few people. At the same time, it has been tested in the cold region of Finland, and the gun oil specially used in the alpine region is used. There is no need to be afraid of being caught in the ice and snow. Freeze.

But it can't be used casually.

They are very secretive here, and the sound of gunfire can easily reveal their target. Although there are no people everywhere, when their telegram is sent, it will definitely alarm the people on the island.

Four times a day of radio contact to confirm the weather conditions, to find out the law as soon as possible, to provide the necessary data for the rear attack, at the same time, they are also at risk of exposure at any time.

If someone is looking for him nearby, he will use the gun again, and the sound of gunfire will attract people to come.

"Then what do we use? Bow and arrow?" said the male student.

Since hot weapons cannot be used, they can only be ordinary cold weapons. Generally speaking, bows and arrows are common hunting tools for Eskimos, including hunting polar bears.

"Use our heads," said Alter. "Since you can't sleep, let's get ready now!"

So, the male student left the sleeping bag that he had just warmed up, wore a leather jacket, and sat in front of the stove with Alter.

Oort received all the canned boxes he had eaten in the past few days, and then began to use a multi-function saber to cut a few skeletons removed from the glider. These skeletons were made of bamboo.

Following Oort's example, the male student also used a knife to cut it, sharpening the ends, and then bent it and shoved it into the can.

"We need to waste some cans." Alter said, dismantling several uneaten cans, digging out the meat inside, filling the cans that had just been stuffed with bamboo, and adding some water.

"Okay, let's get these ready, put them out and freeze them, and you can go out and spread the bait tomorrow. I hope polar bears like to eat our canned beef." Alter said.

What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd? When the male student returned to his sleeping bag, he was still thinking about this strange scene. What was the purpose of these lures?

With this question in mind, the male student fell asleep in a daze. When he woke up, Alter had already woken up and removed the tin from the outside of the cans, leaving only the hard-frozen cans inside. Looking at it from an angle, you can see that the sharpened and bent bamboo sticks are still frozen inside.

Is it? The male student already had some recollections in his heart.

"Come on, let's go out and put bait. In the past few days, we can see the footprints of polar bears every day. It is moving near us. If we don't kill it, it may come to hurt us."

Alter said, put the prepared baits in a bag, carried the gun behind him, and opened the door.

The sun is so dazzling.
