Chapter 337 [Coming](1/2)
Chapter 337 [Arrival]
"The prototype of the JUZ7703 cold-proof equipment is a space suit used by NASA for external aerospace operations. We have modified it to make it more suitable for land operations. We have removed some radiation protection items, and also weakened some survival and communication equipment.
This can reduce the weight more effectively.
However, its cold protection ability is first-class!
It can withstand temperatures as low as minus 180 degrees!
Of course, time is limited. In the low temperature of minus 180 degrees, you can survive for an hour with this equipment, at most."
"Our specially-made snow-proof and cold-proof transport vehicle can carry four passengers in addition to the driver.
This is based on the ice concept car of the British Lotus Company and can operate at temperatures of minus 70 degrees.
There are two power systems, one is fuel and the other is battery.
If there is a fuel problem, the backup battery can last for 8 hours. Of course, this is a net figure. If you want to maintain the heating and survival system in the cabin, the endurance may be reduced to 5 hours.
By the way, there is an external cargo compartment at the back of this thing, which can be used to transport some equipment. The load capacity does not exceed two tons.
When driving on ice, its cruising speed can reach up to 90 kilometers per hour while ensuring maximum safety. Of course, if you drive it like a Ferrari, it is not possible. Its maximum designed speed is 135 kilometers per hour.
But I don't recommend you to open it like this unless you feel that your life is not important.
Of course, you don’t need to drive it, we have professional personnel to operate it.”
The person responsible for introducing the equipment was an octopus technician who looked very geeky.
Wearing a sweater, a coat, glasses, and sparse hair, he was holding a mug with steaming hot chocolate in his hand.
Next to this guy, Vanel was also there, but the furry bear man didn't speak.
Chen Nuo looked at the cold-proof clothes and this ice bike...
The shape of the cold-weather suit is basically a modified version of a space suit. It looks like several large buckets put together.
As for the ice bike... the shape of this thing actually looked a bit familiar to Chen Nuo.
Then he remembered that the transport vehicle in the movie "Broken Ball" he saw in his previous life was very similar.
It's just that the one in front of me is several sizes smaller, about the size of an SUV.
But a little shorter and flatter.
"The wheels are special, but when encountering extreme ice or snow, the wheels can be retracted and four pieces similar to skis can be put down to replace the wheels for gliding."
After the technician finished the introduction, he looked at Varnell and shrugged: "That's about it."
Varnell nodded and said loudly: "Vehicles are what we all need!
However, it is important to note here that the space suit is only a backup!
We won't use it when we leave or enter.
After all, based on window calculations, we have an hour and a half for temperatures to rise.
According to current calculation models, when we enter, the temperature in the red circle will rise to minus 50 degrees.
This is a normal Antarctic temperature, so we don’t need to wear something weighing dozens of kilograms. We will wear normal Antarctic scientific research cold-proof clothing to enter.
Getting these guys who modified the space suits just gives everyone an extra layer of protection.
In case there are some changes in the mission, or the window period changes, the temperature suddenly drops.
Or if we encounter unpredictable changes and we are trapped in the red circle and cannot leave within the specified window, we can put on these things and get an extra hour!
We will take these spacesuits and put them in the cargo hold of the ice truck."
Varnell smiled and continued: "The next step is to teach everyone how to put on this spacesuit, and there are some simple operations that need to be learned.
After all, this thing is used to save lives in case of accidents.
We need to learn to put it on and operate it in a short period of time before we can sign up.
You know, if something changes...
Theoretically, the window time is one and a half hours, plus the one hour that the spacesuit can guarantee against ultra-low temperatures.
You have at most two and a half hours to live!
So, that's all.
We must learn how to put it on quickly and use it.
You only have two and a half hours, don’t waste too much time getting dressed.”
As expected, Chen Nuo remained silent and stood in the front row of the crowd with the captain, watching quietly.
But he was thinking about something else in his mind.
An ice car is a vehicle that can carry four people in addition to the driver.
Twelve ability users can fit into three cars.
Then it can be judged that in order to ensure the safety of the task to the greatest extent.
The three controllers must be separated.
Each vehicle is guaranteed to have a controller, which is the best arrangement.
Then, the question arises: divide the cars!
"Captain, please allow me to ride with you! Please!"
Sure enough, after Chen Nuo thought of this, a voice immediately came from beside him.
Turning around, he saw that it was Shen Zong Ichiro from the Neon Kingdom.
This young neon countryman had a calm face and bowed slightly to the captain.
I didn't pay much attention yesterday, but if I look closely today, I can see that Kamizou Ichiro is actually tall and tall among people from the Neon Country.
Probably because of racial reasons, most people in Neon Country are relatively short.
And this Kamizou Ichiro should be 1.8 meters tall by visual inspection.
Of course, on this occasion, it is impossible for him to wear the local national costume of Neon Country, which does not have a look like a coat and a samurai sword.
Kamizou Ichiro was wearing a simple jacket-style sportswear. But the color made Chen Nuo a little uncomfortable with it.
It's actually green.
Probably because we happened to sit together at the meeting yesterday, so we just wanted to form a team.
The captain glanced at Chen Nuo, who nodded.
"Okay, I accept your request." the captain replied.
"So, Captain, do you still have an empty seat in your car? Can you leave one for me?"
Another person walked up to me and spoke with a respectful smile.
This is another girl.
Well, actually for people with abilities, because of the existence of abilities, most people with abilities have stronger anti-aging properties than ordinary people. So the so-called girl who says she may be an aunt may be exaggerating. That is the talent of the controller.
The realm of achievement.
But it is very possible for an ordinary person with abilities who looks like a lolita to be actually a royal sister.
As for the girl in front of me, judging by her age, she looks like a royal sister, but in fact...it's hard to say.
His skin and facial features have a mixed-race feel, with a mix of Caucasian and yellow. He speaks English, but it's not standard.
He has a pretty good appearance, with blond hair and blue eyes, and deep facial features, in line with European and American aesthetics.
The skin is relatively delicate, which may be a talent brought by the yellow blood.
This is also one of the twelve ability users.
Chen Nuo remembered that she was introduced yesterday. Her name was Rebecca, a very common European and American name.
But his reputation is not small, and his strength is quite impressive.
Rebecca obviously blinked as she spoke.
Unabashedly, he was unleashing his anger on the captain!
The captain was a little speechless.
I was also very famous before!
Why are you using the title of controller now, and just one or two of them are teasing me?
What were you doing before?
However, Chen Nuo did not object, and the captain nodded.
"Mr. Kamizou Ichiro, I am one-eighth of Asian descent. I believe we can work together happily."
Rebecca immediately expressed her friendship to Kamizou Ichiro.
But Kamizou Ichiro was fine when the woman extended her hand, bowed silently, and bowed in return.
To be continued...
