Chapter 548 Greenland Ice Sea

When the Herrens defense line was in full swing, Greenland, which was eleven time zones away from China, was in an almost eternal tranquility.

Real world, Greenland.

Here and Antarctica are the only pure lands in the entire human world that have not been involved in the war. On this land that is covered with ice and snow all year round, there is the only large group of refuges on the earth located on the ground.

Many European and American refugees who had no time to enter the underground shelter, eventually moved to this cold land and built a new home here.

In the early stages of the nuclear winter, the total number of refugees in Greenland reached 600 million. Later, due to factors such as cold, hunger and infectious diseases, at the end of the nuclear winter, this number dropped to about 400 million, and one-third died in the severe cold of tens of degrees below zero. However, compared with other places, the survival rate of refugees in Greenland is obviously very high.

The European Union also selected Greenland as its headquarters location and established a brand new "EU" here.

Of course, this EU is no longer an economic and political community formed between countries in the old era, but a super alliance formed by dozens of consortiums headquartered on the European continent.

There are three alliances in the world, one in Europe, one in China, and the other in North America.

Twenty-seven-year-old Sterk was a bank clerk before the war broke out, but now he is a second-level evolver, a member of a mysterious unit under the European Union that cannot be named.

Sturk was currently rowing an inflatable boat with twenty-nine other soldiers, floating on the sea three kilometers away from the Greenland coast.

Although it is not the freezing period, there are still thin layers of ice several centimeters thick on the sea level. The soldiers must smash the thin layer of ice with ice axes before the inflatable boat can pass smoothly.

"U Plan" - at this time, a top-secret plan of Ss. As the executor of this plan, Sturk and his other twenty-nine teammates only learned about the specific content of the plan five hours ago.

But they have been doing the training related to the plan for a year. Until now, Sturk understood why he had to undergo the whole year of diving combat training.

"A team has arrived at the designated location."

"The second team has arrived at the designated location."

"The three teams have arrived at the designated location."

Three inflatable boats hovered on the sea in a font shape, and several inconspicuous reagent bottles were thrown into the sea by the soldiers. Soon, with these three inflatable boats as the center, the temperature of this sea area dropped rapidly, and a huge ice cap condensed on the sea surface.

The thickness of the ice cap is four or five meters thick, and the diameter is more than three kilometers, just like a temporary floating island.

Sturk and the others jumped off the inflatable boat and gathered in the center of the ice sheet.

They all wore thick cold-proof clothing, but in the cold-proof clothing, they were a new diving combat uniform that used various advanced technologies and condensed many technological crystallizations.

The captain in charge took out a device similar to a GPS positioner, debugged it for a few minutes before looking up, and said to everyone: "Yes, the goal should be directly under the ice sheet."

Another team of soldiers immediately brought a cutter, cut a two-meter-diameter round hole on the ice cap, and then nailed several metal poles along the edge of the round hole.

"According to the plan previously formulated, team one and team two will be launched, and team three will stay on top to support. If an accident occurs, then team three will directly replace team one and team two to complete the task."

After the captain said that, the soldiers from the first and second teams immediately took off their cold-proof suits, connected the scuba lungs with the snorkel on the outside of the diving suit, put two ejected harpoons behind their backs, and finally fixed an underwater rifle to the ring on their chest. After a simple preparation, they dived through the round hole one after another.

As a freshman with less qualifications, Sterk was assigned to three teams. Their task was to stay on the ice sheet and provide support to the two teams who were launched at any time, or... as their substitute.

The figures of twenty soldiers quickly disappeared into the dark sea water, and even the lights of the diving lamps on them quickly became dim and blurred, and eventually merged with the darkness.

Their mission target was 642 meters deep under the sea, while before that, the limit record of human diving was 332 meters.

Thanks to this high-tech diving suit, this record was broken by Sturk and the others three years ago. However, as training, they only dived to a depth of 450 meters. The only record of diving over 500 meters was achieved in the virtual game world. However, that time they encountered a mutant beast lurking in the deep sea, and in the end, no one could come back alive.

Folded work tables were spread out on the ice cover, and a complete set of sonar equipment was in operation. Two soldiers sat at the work table, staring at the screen with all their concentration.

In addition to sonar, various high-tech detection equipment were also moved to the ice cap - if it weren't for fear of alarming the enemy, the original plan was to tow a scientific research boat here directly.

"Apart from the serious electromagnetic interference near the target and the detection cannot be carried out, no abnormalities have been found so far." Sturk glanced at the instrument he was responsible for and said to the telephone.

"clear."

The captain's voice was very dull, and it was mixed with a lot of current noise. Due to the "mission goal", there was always a huge electromagnetic interference field in this sea area, and only this kind of high-quality telephone can play a role. For example, a general military walkie-talkie is completely a waste here, let alone civilian ones.

Team 1 and Team 2 are still continuing to dive, with a depth of 400 meters, which is close to their highest record of diving in the Greenland ice sea.

There are a large number of mutant creatures living on land, and in the ocean, there are many more terrifying existences than mutant creatures.
