Genius remembers this site address in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Three hours later.

With the help of the submarine, Qi Lin and others successfully crossed the Bering Strait and successfully landed in Alaska.

This piece of land once belonged to Russia, but not long after the American Civil War ended in 1867, Alaska was sold to the United States by Russia for 7.2 million US dollars. This 7.2 million US dollars can be said to be a successful advance. At that time, Russia was in the process of industrialization, and the United States also acquired this territory that occupies one-fifth of the country.

Alaska is the largest state in the United States. More than one-third of the land is located within the Arctic Circle. The main landform is dominated by frozen tundra like Siberia. Qi Lin and their landing point is located on the south bank of Norton Bay. Near the mouth of the Yukon River, since most of the organization's search forces are concentrated over the strait and the Chukotze Peninsula, this direction is relatively safe.

The crowd dragged their stiff bodies in the sea and climbed onto the beach, gathered behind a boulder leeward, took out dry food and water from their backpacks, and began to chew.

"To be honest..." Harves swallowed a bite of the food, and Qi Lin said, "I thought even if we could come out this time, there would not be a few people left in the end... I mean we started at Noah's Ark stronghold from the beginning. At that time I thought so... I didn't expect to survive so much."

Except for Cheng Yanqiu, who had never appeared, and Bruce, who was killed by Qi Lin before the operation began, they only lost seven people in this operation-Lin Que, Jiang Shanyan, Aken and Harvey's four men, and arrived in Alaska alive. The number of people is as many as six people-Qi Lin, Aya Kui, George, Biochemical People 0592, Harves and Qin who was rescued by them.

Judging by the difficulty of this rescue operation, this result is undoubtedly very successful...

only……

"We haven't really entered the safe area. The action is not over yet. Don't say this too early." Qi Lin stared at the compressed biscuits in his hand and said, "Judging from Qin's importance, Xia and the master will not If they give up the search so easily, if they can't find us in Chukotze and the Bering Strait, they will certainly expand the scope of their search. Soon they will appear here."

"Then where are we going now? I don't know anything about follow-up actions, but you should know more than us...that the'BOSS' claimed to be the only one such small unmanned ship Submarine, right?" Harves asked, staring at Qi Lin.

"To be honest, what is the specific response...I don't know, but I know the location of the safe base in Alaska. I think we have to go to that place by ourselves." Qi Lin said, spreading the waterproof map on the rock. After opening, most of their electronic devices were lost or destroyed in the whirlpool torrents, and electronic maps were also included.

"so far?!"

Harves only glanced at it, and his face was already ugly.

The safe base given by the mastermind is located in the largest city in Alaska-Anchorage, and Qi Lin and the others want to get here, that is, there are only two routes.

One is to walk south along the coastline through the Alaska peninsula, and the other is to climb the Alaska mountains.

The first route is extremely dangerous, and the main brain and organization are likely to send drones to search along the coastline. The risk of being discovered in coastal areas is much higher than inland areas... and the second route, although relatively exposed The risk is low, but it is very difficult to go.

The Alaska Mountains are one of the largest mountain ranges in North America, and the main peak Denali over six kilometers is the highest peak in North America.

In the old days, due to the influence of the warm Pacific current, the snow line in the Denali Mountains area could be more than 1,800 meters high. However, after the nuclear war passed, the global climate changed drastically, and the warm current of the Pacific no longer passed through this area.

The temperature at Qi Lin's landing point alone was more than ten degrees below zero. Looking around, there was a snowy area as far as they could see. A magnificent glacier that could not be seen lay directly in front of them—that is The mountains of Alaska that their business must cross.

"How many supplies do we have left?" Qi Lin asked. Due to the energy gathering vortex, he was not too afraid of the low temperature environment, and there was no such thing as a frost dragon in this area. Qi Lin did not suppress the gathering at all. It is necessary to be able to vortex, so even if he wears short-sleeved shorts, he can jump in the ice and snow as much as he can... But other people are different. Escape from the underwater prison has consumed a lot of their physical energy, the cold water It also took away a lot of heat. Although their combat suits can be used as diving suits and have good insulation properties, in this case, they are indeed slightly thin.

0592 has a thermoregulatory system in his body, so the severe cold is not too bad for him, but Aya, Harvey and George are already shaking slightly involuntarily at this time.

George becomes a werewolf, or Aya uses his mind to form a vacuum temperate zone around him. This is indeed an effective way to keep out the cold, but the consumption of this way of keeping out the cold is too exaggerated, and it's not worth the gain...

"There are only three winter clothes..." Harves lost his backpack when he was in the Undersea Prison in order to carry Qin, while the backpacks of Aya Kui and George were washed away in the whirlpool. Now Only Qi Lin and 0592 were still carrying backpacks. The 0592 backpack was relatively large and contained twice as many supplies. Even so, they only made up three winter clothes.

One of them must be given to Qin who is in a comatose state. His body functions are now in a state of almost stagnation. In addition, he has already escaped from the life-sustaining cabin. If no warmth is taken, his body It will soon be necrotic due to the low temperature. Even if Qi Lin and the others arrive at a safe base, there will be no way to wake them up.

As for the remaining two, they were allocated to Harves and George.

"Is it okay for your sister?" Harves took the winter clothes in his hand, glanced at Aya Aoi and asked... Although he did not know the true relationship between Aya Kui and Qi Lin, it was obvious that the two people had known each other before. And looking at the kind of intimacy and tacit understanding between them, it is not appropriate to say that they are ordinary teammates and friends. It is not appropriate to say that they are couples...

Besides, Aya Kui seems to be the age of a junior high school student, and Qi Lin doesn't seem to have that special hobby.

In view of this situation, Harves subconsciously regarded Aya Kui as Qi Lin's sister, and Qi Lin and Aya Kui also acquiesced to his view.

"It's okay, I'll use it as a human body heater." Qi Lin said. Aya Kui is already wrapped around Qi Lin's body like an octopus. The body is close to Qi Lin's chest and abdomen, relying on Qi Lin to gather energy. The heat converted from the vortex maintains body temperature.

Since Aya can use her mind to put herself in a floating state, Qi Lin will not feel any extra burden, at best, holding the individual in front of her chest will slightly affect her actions.

"Okay..." Harves looked at them with a slightly weird look, and put his thick winter clothes on him.

They have been resting here for half an hour. If they don’t leave, the mastermind and organization will probably expand their search scope here.

"Let's go, let's go." Looking at Aya Kwai, who had her little head tucked in his arms and closed her eyes, Qi Lin gave the order to start, and he circled Aya Kwai's waist with one hand and an ice axe in the other. Go.

"I don't want to stay in this ruined place anymore. To be honest, this place is not covered at all, and my heart is really unreliable-I always feel that chasing soldiers will come from the sea at any time..." George followed closely. Behind Qi Lin, he kept looking back at the sea and said.

0592 has never spoken, his language ability is still inferior to normal human beings. In addition, in his mode of thinking, he can speak without speaking. The redundant and meaningless language is There is no need, especially in this case.

Qin's was transferred from Harves's back to 0592's back... To be precise, it should be in the 0592 backpack. The bulky backpack is much larger than other people's backpacks, and it can not only lay down double the supplies. And supplies, it is more than enough to cram one person.

...

"This is Denali National Park. It's just that you have to walk several kilometers to reach the foot of the mountain." After passing through a rocky beach and an ice field, Qi Lin and the others finally walked to a forest.

It's just... this is a dead forest. Even the hardy coniferous forest can't tolerate the extremely low temperature here, and the moisture in the frozen soil has turned into ice, which cannot be used by the roots of the trees. Absorbed, this forest died a few years ago, leaving only countless skewed and withered branches standing in the snow.

Denali National Park is the second largest park in the United States after the famous Yellowstone Park. There used to be vast grasslands and lush mountain forests, but it was affected by almost endless snowstorms and extreme cold of tens of degrees below zero. After the sweep, these landscapes that attracted countless tourists no longer exist, leaving only ice, snow, and ice.

In order to prevent snow blindness, the team members all put on a pair of brown windshields, and stepped on the snow-specific footwear similar to a sled, and walked hard on a white snow field.

This kind of polar scenery cannot be said to be spectacular, but now, Qi Lin and the others are not in the mood to appreciate it at all.

The current weather can barely be considered as sunny...but you know, snowstorms are almost commonplace in this place, they must rush to the foot of the mountain before the blizzard...Qin's state is not optimistic, the longer the delay, his consciousness can The lower the possibility of recovery.

Qi Lin didn't want the person he desperately brought out from the underwater prison... and eventually became a vegetative person who could never wake up-if the ending was like this, all the previous efforts would be meaningless.

In addition to blizzards, they also need to be careful of those predators hiding in the ice and snow-low temperature killed most of the wild animals that once lived in Denali National Park, but those that survived became so More powerful...

During the war, Alaska once became the largest forward base of the U.S. Army in the Arctic Circle. The military significance of this place is self-evident. As a key target, hostile forces also poured a large number of nuclear and dirty bombs on this land. Above... Therefore, Qi Lin won't be surprised what kind of mutant creature can evolve here... Of course, don't encounter something at the level of the Frost Dragon...

"It seems that the sky is going to be dark..." George walked, looking up at the sky, and saw that the sky that was originally lead gray had become very close to black at this moment, although it is only three o'clock in the afternoon. Arrived, but the night on the wasteland has begun to fall.

In addition, it is close to the Arctic Circle. After the autumnal equinox, the day will be shorter and shorter, and the night will be just the opposite.

"I suggest resting." 0592 said in a muffled voice, the night temperature on the wasteland is extremely low, and in this ice field area, it can easily reach minus fifty degrees below zero. Some mutant creatures that like to appear at night are obviously more dangerous at night than during the day.

"I agree." Qi Lin nodded. Although Qin didn't have much time left, after weighing and comparing with the risks of moving on, Qi Lin decided to rest in place for one night and wait until dawn the next day. Hurry up.

Although Harves was a little reluctant, he also knew how risky it was to drive at night. He didn't say much, but took off the shovel behind his back and started digging on the snow.

A rectangular snow pit with a depth of two meters, a length of five meters, and a width of two meters was quickly dug out by several people. Qi Lin put a canvas on the top of the snow pit. The underside of the canvas was framed with branches and the top was Spread a thick layer of snow and step on it with your feet, and a temporary shelter has begun to take shape.

All six people got into this snow pit, where the body's heat loss rate will be greatly reduced, enough to support them through this deadly night.

The only remaining small marching pot was placed on the induction cooker. Qi Lin took out a few large pieces of rock-like chocolate from his pocket and threw it into the pot. As the temperature increased, the chocolate began to melt slowly. , Exudes a seductive fragrance.

"Ha... at this time I can still drink a cup of hot cocoa, this wave is not bad." Although the body is very tired, but George seems to be in a good mood now, even Harvis's tight face is relaxed. A lot.
