Chapter 26 The Abacus Failed
After driving for six or seven hours, it would be a lie to say that you are not tired. Adding the painstaking effort to send the ATV into the basement warehouse, and then into the "Extreme Realm" opposite the "Moros Gate", Chi Heng has a kind of Immediate urge to fall to sleep.

He still held back his exhaustion, took a hot bath to dispel the exhaustion, cooked another dinner for himself, and then returned to the basement to sleep beautifully for a few hours.

When I woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

Chi Heng stretched his waist, yawned, got up and sorted out the equipment needed for tomorrow, and put it next to the "Moros Gate".

Logically speaking, now that the ATV has arrived, the two hundred steel rods seem to be of little use, because you can carry the "Gate of Moros" with you, so why do you need landmarks?
However, Chi Heng considered that if the old uncle deliberately placed the movable "Moros Gate" here, would there be any deep meaning?
In order to prevent this place from being lost in the future, he plans to make some landmarks, so that even if he needs to come back in the future, there will be landmarks to guide the way.

There are not a lot of flags in the supermarket in the small town of Dock, so Chi Heng bought a lot of red cloth instead, and cut them for use. He was busy for several hours, and in order to ensure the exploration work of the second day, he took a rest and slept in advance go.

May 5th is the 28th day since he came to Dock Town. In exactly two weeks, Chi Heng will be fully prepared to explore the "Absolute Realm" again.

After breakfast, Chi Heng pushed open the "Moros Gate" at 6:11, and stepped into the "absolute realm".

As long as the "Moros Gate" is opened, the cold wind will always rush towards you at the first time. Chi Heng, who is wearing a heavy jacket, wears a hat, and uses gloves for his hands, can completely resist such a cold wind. blow.

The first task was to put the "Moros Gate" on the ATV first. In order to avoid knocking and damaging the "Moros Gate", Chi Heng also prepared a lot of foam in advance as protection.

No matter how light the "Moros Gate" is, it is quite laborious to carry it by one person. In order to put the door on the back seat of the ATV, Chi Heng spent more than half an hour to get it all done. He carefully tied the "Moros Gate" with ropes. ", and also cushioned with foam for shock absorption.

"Huh, it's almost there."

Chi Heng checked back and forth with satisfaction, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he got into the car and prepared to leave.

"Go! New day!"

With a wave of his fist, Chi Heng started the ATV, and the engine roared suddenly. After he blasted the accelerator, he gradually drove towards the distant mountains.

In fact, although there are no artificial roads here, many places on the ground are covered with basalt gravel, muddy land and moss, but the terrain is flat and vast. ATVs are overkill in this environment. The driving force and the powerful torque get out of the way.

It's just that the accident happened soon!

After driving for more than 300 meters, Chi Heng suddenly felt the car body lighten suddenly, stopped forward, and quickly turned off the brakes, thinking that the "Moros Gate" had fallen off the car, and looked back quickly, but was dumbfounded.

The "Moros Gate" that was supposed to be placed in the back seat should be visible even if you fell off the car, but there was nothing there, and there was no sign of any gate along the way behind.

Where's the door?

What about a big door?
Chi Heng's heart tightened, his legs trembled with fright, if the door disappeared, he would die.

I don't care about continuing to explore, so hurry up and go back the same way.

Only [-] meters away this time, Chi Heng saw the "Gate of Moros" from a distance!
"what happened?"

The ATV came to a stop slowly, and Chi Heng jumped out of the car, looked at the traces on the ground being crushed by the tires, and then looked up at the "Moros Gate" that was motionless, as if it had been standing here all along.

The "Gate of Moros" that was carried on the ATV disappeared, and the location where it reappeared was the starting point just now!

So much so that Chi Heng had an illusion that he didn't lift the door to the ATV just now!

After a moment of silence, Chi Heng gritted his teeth, put the "Moros Gate" on the ATV again and fixed it, and continued to set off after half an hour. This time he stopped after driving a short distance and looked back. At about 300 meters away, he saw it with his own eyes. Witnessed the sudden disappearance of the "Moros Gate".

Immediately driving back, Chi Heng watched "Moros Gate" reappear in its original position.

"Isn't it? You can't take it away?"

Chi Heng was dumbfounded, and understood why the old uncle put the gate here.

Not reconciled, he changed the driving direction and tried again, finally facing the disappearing door, he had to admit that this door was really weird.

"It's over."

With this sudden change, the original plan was completely aborted.

Chi Heng stood in front of the "Moros Gate", scratching the back of his head with a headache, not knowing what to do.

How can it be?

Only admit and change the plan.

"If 'Moros Gate' can't change position, it means I can't resupply and go back to rest at any time."

Chi Heng thought about the change, and then looked at the ATV: "Fortunately, we can use transportation, otherwise it would be too difficult for me to travel on foot alone, and the exploration distance is also limited."

He began to sketch calculations in his notes, "The maximum speed of ATV is 80 kilometers per hour, and it is impossible to maintain this speed all the time. Assuming the average speed is 60 kilometers, starting from 6:30, it can travel 12 kilometers by 330 o'clock. We must go back with all our strength...the research base can’t be more than 300 kilometers away, right? Well, no, since you can’t carry the ‘Moros Gate’, you need to consider the problem of getting lost. I have to set up landmarks a few days ago.”

Without wasting much time, Chi Heng finished thinking about it, and immediately went to the basement warehouse to carry steel brazes and other materials, fixed them on the ATV, and loaded an ATV to the brim, and then drove forward again.

This time Chi Heng felt that the distance of 500 meters was a bit too far. He planned to record the coordinates at the distance that can be seen clearly under the visual distance. This distance is 250 meters. In this way, even if there is severe extreme weather, It's also much better.

"Clap."

Chi Heng jumped out of the car, pulled out a steel rod from the back of the car, inserted it into the ground, swung a sledgehammer, and hit it hard, smashing the steel rod into the ground.

The mossy soil is the easiest place to lay down the steel rod, but it is also not easy to fix it. Chi Heng chose a place full of gravel as much as possible, and then tied it with three wind ropes on the steel rod, pulling out a 45-degree diagonal line in a triangle shape to tie it. On the ground nail, the ground nail is also inclined at 45 degrees, perpendicular to the wind rope, so as to fix the drilled steel brazing.

Then tie the cut red cloth to the top of the steel rod, and as soon as Chi Heng let go, the cold wind blew the red cloth loudly.

At intervals of about 250 meters, Chi Heng lay down steel drills to act as coordinates one by one. Although it was time-consuming and laborious, it was for the sake of safety, and it was okay to be tired.
