Chapter 233 Charge to the summit of Mount Everest!
“I knew it would be a very risky move to launch a summit push directly from the assault camp without much rest.”

"So, Captain Yin, you don't need to accompany me in the final summit push."

"I just need to bring my equipment and go up with my senior brother."

After Xiao Ning finished speaking, everyone at the scene fell silent.

Maybe the viewers in the live broadcast room still don’t know what Xiao Ning is going to do to climb Mount Everest this time, but everyone on the Red Bull team at the scene knows it.

If it were just to climb Mount Everest in winter, Xiao Ning could complete it alone.

The reason why they follow other people along the way is not only that Red Bull considers multi-camera live broadcast to make the live broadcast effect better, but the more important reason is actually to let others help Xiao Ning get it. equipment.

The Yin Feng team that was originally planned to accompany Xiao Ning to the summit was mainly responsible for this task.

However, now Xiao Ning said that Yin Feng and others only need to accompany him to C3, and then directly launch the summit summit from the assault camp. He does not need anyone to accompany him, and he can get all the equipment by himself...

This is exaggerated.

Because Xiao Ning's equipment, in addition to the things necessary for mountaineering, also includes things that allow him to complete what he did at the top of Mount Everest.

Even if these things are folded, they still occupy considerable volume and weight.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for a person to carry so many things to the summit, let alone Xiao Ning who has to carry a money bag to the top of Mount Everest?

So after Xiao Ning proposed that Yin Feng and the others were not required to accompany him, and that he had to complete the final summit stage alone, everyone was confused.

Yin Feng, who had just been thinking about it and had no confidence in forcing the summit without much rest, now no longer even had confidence in Xiao Ning.

“How about carrying a bunch of equipment to the summit in the middle of winter?”

"What international joke?"

Yin Feng suddenly flashed in Yin Feng's mind the image of Xiao Ning alone on the final way to the summit, holding a bag in one hand and a rope in the other and carrying someone on his back.

"No...he needs a backpack on his waist and shoulders. Otherwise, how can he fit so many things?"

"I'm afraid Qian Zhen will have to carry a bag on his back..."

"How the hell can you get this?"

Yin Feng roughly did the math. Regardless of the live broadcast equipment installed on Xiao Ning and Qian Zhen's bodies, he did not calculate the weight. If Xiao Ning really wanted to reach the summit alone, Qian Zhen's weight should be included in the weight, and his total weight would be It will definitely exceed 150 pounds.

This level of load would be very difficult for an ordinary person to carry while standing still, and it would be very difficult for even a well-trained person to walk for a short distance under normal circumstances.

But Xiao Ning is planning to do this on Mount Everest, which is more than 8000 meters above sea level.

It’s so abstract!
Yin Feng, who couldn't calm down at all, directly gathered the equipment of his team to help Xiao Ning in front of Xiao Ning. Then he pointed at the big and small bags on the ground and looked at Xiao Ning in a daze.

"You mean...you want to go to the summit from an assault camp at an altitude of 8300 meters, holding so many things by yourself, and carrying Qian Zhen on your back?"

Xiao Ning nodded calmly.

Yin Feng was petrified in situ.

The remaining three members of the professional mountaineering team were stunned.

Other Red Bull staff members around the tent were stunned at the same time.

The barrage floating in the live broadcast room also became sparse in an instant.

A few seconds later, while everyone at the scene was still looking at Xiao Ning blankly, the audience who reacted had already maxed out the barrage areas in each live broadcast room.

"My grass!"

"It's really outrageous!"

“You still need to carry so many things when you climb the summit alone?”

"Don't worry, let's do some work in the underworld... Isn't this too far from the underworld?"

“I don’t know how much it weighs, but it doesn’t look like this pile of stuff can be carried by one person!”

“Ningshen thinks it’s not challenging to climb to the top with only one Qianzhen on his back, so he wants to take the initiative to increase the difficulty of his climb to the top?”

"I don't really understand, but I was shocked."

Although the audience does not know as much as the Red Bull team, it is precisely because they do not know what is in Xiao Ning's equipment. They are not satisfied with Xiao Ning's proposal to bring such a pile of things with Qian Zhen on his back. The thought of climbing to the top alone was even more shocking.

After being shocked, the curiosity of all the viewers was also filled.

"Normally, the weight of mountaineering should be reduced as much as possible. Why does Ningshen need to bring so many things to the summit? Are there other items after reaching the summit?"

"You guys said it's possible that Ning Shen wants to go skiing on Mount Everest? I mean skiing directly from the top."

"It looks like this pile of equipment is quite large. It's possible that there are skis in it, but... if you really want to go skiing, that would be too abstract!"

"What the hell, are you going to ski down from the top of Mount Everest? Is this something a human being can imagine?"

"So if it wasn't skiing, what would it be? If you get to the top, just go to the top. Why are you carrying a bunch of stuff?"

"If you are at the altitude of the camp, bringing a bunch of things can be said to be a peace of mind. The Sherpa porter is going to deliver things to a certain camp, but there is no camp above the assault camp! He doesn't Are you really going to carry skis or something?"

"It doesn't have to be skiing. I think it might be carrying a microphone or something. Ningshen fans are in luck! Ningshen is preparing to hold a concert on the top of Mount Everest!"

"It's okay to have a concert on the top of Mount Everest..."

"..."

The discussion in various live broadcast rooms is still continuing.

Although everyone at the scene wanted to persuade Xiao Ning, they were unable to speak out.

Although even Yin Feng felt that the idea proposed by Xiao Ning was abstract and unlikely to be successful in actual practice, after all, it was Xiao Ning who proposed it.

Along the way, Xiao Ning had shocked him more than once or twice.

If it is impossible for a professional climber to do it, then maybe Xiao Ning, who is much more powerful than a professional climber, might actually be able to do it?
Furthermore, although the overall person in charge of this Everest plan is Chen Qing, Xiao Ning, who was actually given the highest decision-making power by Red Bull Vice President Zou Yitian, has the ability to make on-the-spot changes to the details of the plan and make decisions.

Yin Feng knew very well that if Xiao Ning really wanted to do this, it would not be just a few words of advice from him or others.

Everyone, including Yin Feng, was still struggling.

Xiao Ning put down the final words.

"It's still a while before the departure time. Captain Yin, you take the time to have a good rest. The next journey to the assault camp will be as non-stop as possible. I will also go to the side to relax for a while. I will see you there and set off on time."

The hour and a half rest time in Camp No. 1 C2 was up. According to Xiao Ning's plan, the team composed of Yin Feng's foursome and Xiao Ning Qian Zhen continued to charge towards Camp No. [-] C[-].

Not long after leaving the C7028 camp located at an altitude of 1 meters, Xiao Ning and others climbed up the north slope ridge of Mount Everest to the long snow slope section.

The whole journey from the C7028 camp at 1 meters to the C7790 camp at 2 meters is almost like this long snow slope.

The total distance of this long snow slope section is about 5.5 kilometers, and the average slope is about 25 degrees to 30 degrees.This slope is not necessarily very steep, but the total distance is there, and the altitude is also there.

Compared with normal altitude, any action after an altitude of more than 7000 meters consumes double the physical strength.

Although everyone except Xiao Ning was using oxygen, Yin Feng and others still felt some discomfort due to the rapid consumption of physical strength, even though they had climbed to the summit several times.

Soon, the team reached the early 400-meter mark.

If the North Col ice wall before reaching the C1 camp is the first difficult point on the climbing route on the north slope of Mount Everest.

So the location where Xiao Ning and others are at this time can be said to be the second difficult point on the north slope route of Mount Everest.

The altitude of 7400 meters to 7500 meters on the north slope of Mount Everest is a wind outlet. Due to the special terrain, this area called the "big wind outlet" will cause the wind to become stronger than before due to the "narrow tube effect" The area is much larger.

How strong is the wind blowing here all year round?

Under normal circumstances, if a climber climbs this area without a protective rope to tighten the rope, he will even be blown away by the strong wind rushing towards the ridge!

The consequence of stronger winds is cooler temperatures.

In this area that can easily lead to hypothermia and frostbite, except for Xiao Ning who was still strolling around in a calm state of mind, Yin Feng and others were more or less nervous.

Fortunately, there were no surprises in the end.

Everyone passed through the strong wind area safely and passed the second difficult climbing point on the north slope route.

After reaching an altitude of 500 meters, the snow slopes originally climbed began to change.

Because above this altitude, rocky terrain begins to appear, and the higher the altitude, the thinner the snow.

For climbers wearing crampons, the climb is much more difficult than the previous route.

Fortunately, Yin Feng and the others, as mountaineering veterans, had quite a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of mixed snow and rock terrain, so they reluctantly followed the pace of Xiao Ning at the front of the queue.

all the way up.

When the six people arrived at the C7790 camp located at an altitude of 2 meters, the sun was about to set.

After making slight adjustments at Camp No. 7790, which is located on a slope of Mount Everest at an altitude of [-] meters, Xiao Ning and others continued upward without stopping as planned at the time of departure.

Although the total climbing distance from the C2 camp to the final assault camp is only two kilometers, in fact, these two kilometers still require more than four hours of climbing time under normal circumstances.

Although the altitude was higher and the terrain became more and more difficult to climb, Xiao Ning took the four of them to the assault camp at an altitude of 10 meters at 30:8300 when it was already dark.

According to the previous plan.

Xiao Ning will separate from the Yin Feng quartet here, and after a short rest, he will carry Qian Zhen alone from the assault camp to the top of Mount Everest.

In fact, Xiao Ning did arrange it this way after arriving at the assault camp.

Because they rushed all the way from Camp No. [-] to the assault camp, Yin Feng and others' physical strength was almost exhausted. Without a night's rest at the assault camp, they actually had no chance of even trying to climb to the summit.

At this time, several people who were very tired helped Xiao Ning prepare the equipment he would bring to the summit with complicated expressions.

A bunch of equipment was bundled and tied up on Xiao Ning's body, and Qian Zhen was still lying on Xiao Ning's back. In the end, Xiao Ning's image actually looked like an alien rice dumpling.

Everything was ready, Xiao Ning and Yin Feng had a brief exchange of words and were about to say goodbye and continue upward, when an old acquaintance appeared at the door of the tent in the assault camp.

The foreigner mountaineering team that they had never seen before had arrived at the assault camp before Xiao Ning and others. This was something they knew as soon as they arrived at the camp.

However, because they had nothing to do with her and had a language barrier, Yin Feng and the others had no intention of taking the initiative to communicate with them.

But at this moment, several people from the foreigner's mountaineering team came to the door.

The first person to bear the brunt was Kato Oki, the mustachioed climber from Konihi Country.

As soon as he saw Xiao Ning, he said with joy: "It's really you!"

When Xiao Ning, Yin Feng and others were confused, Kato Daiki turned back to look at his teammates: "Look! I told you, the people coming up must be Xiao Ning and the others!"

A foreign team member was a little stunned: "It's really... we sprinted directly from the advance camp to the assault camp today. We barely rested along the way and we just arrived at the assault camp, and they actually caught up with us? Incredible!"

Kato Daiki didn't say anything more to his stunned teammates, but walked quickly to Xiao Ning.

"Xiao! I knew I would still meet you up there! Our team set out from the advance camp at midnight today and didn't arrive at the assault camp until the evening. When did you set off?"

Although Xiao Ning really wanted to say "We are not familiar with each other", after all, at this altitude of 300 meters, they are probably the only people in the world combined.

Meeting him in a place like this is indeed a blessing.

It's not too much to just answer such a question.

So Xiao Ning answered: "About six or seven in the morning."

Kato Ohki was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I thought our departure time wouldn't be too different, but I didn't expect it to be bigger than I thought..."

"As expected of Master Xiao Ning! Even though he was a few hours late, he could arrive at the assault camp at about the same time as us!"

"By the way, Master Xiao Ning! When will your team prepare to reach the summit? Do you want to join us? Being with us can be considered as a way of taking care of us."

Xiao Ning said truthfully: "I'm going to reach the summit now."

Kato Daiki was stunned.

The other foreign teammates behind him were also stunned.

"Uh... are you still busy? I'm in a hurry." Xiao Ning said while pointing to Qian Zhen on his back: "My senior brother said he wants to go to the top of the mountain to enjoy the moon as soon as possible."

When the hell did I say this?

Qian Zhen was confused.

After hearing the keyword "moon appreciation", Kato Ohki and others were even more stunned.

Xiao Ning didn't bother to care what these foreigners were thinking. After waving to Yin Feng and others, he simply walked out of the tent with his whole body weighed heavily.

He turned on his flashlight and soon began to continue upward along the ridge of Mount Everest in the darkness.

Launch the final charge to the summit of Mount Everest!

Outside the tent at the assault camp.

Looking at Xiao Ning represented by the light not far away, Kato Daiki and his teammates were stunned and began to tremble.

A foreign climber's jaw almost dropped to the ground: "He! After arriving at the assault camp in one day, he went straight to the summit without taking any rest? This! This is tantamount to suicide!"

Kato Ohki then added in a trembling tone: "More importantly... it doesn't matter if he is carrying someone on his back, he is even carrying so many things! Oh my God!"
