I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

Chapter 178 Predetermined location

The Arctic Island, the northernmost place in the world, is in winter for six months of the year. The most indispensable thing is snowflakes and ice. The highest temperature does not exceed [-] degrees, and the lowest is minus [-] degrees.

There are very few people who can survive in such a place, so the population of the Arctic Island is very small. Only some Eskimos live there, and scientific personnel from various countries responsible for exploring here.

Although the Arctic Island has an extreme climate and is sparsely populated, it is still valuable. Oil has been mined in the past and has also appeared in the myths of other countries.

For example, in the myth of Dayan Kingdom, it is recorded that after Dayu controlled the floods, he traveled around the world and visited a place in the Northern Kingdom, which should be the current Arctic Island.

At the same time, this is also a place with many natural landscapes, such as extreme day or night, and the summer sun, which has no heat at all, just like an incandescent lamp, slowly turning in that white time.

For various reasons, there is an endless stream of scientists from various countries who come here to stay and explore every year, more than those who go to Antarctica. However, there is no way to establish a base station and they can only go back and forth.

When Zhao Qi arrived in this area on a military plane, the cold wind blew on the iron sheet. Since there was a crackling sound, the temperature in the entire cabin was rapidly dropping.

Even military aircraft with thick iron sheets have been cooled down. It is hard to imagine how cold and harsh the outside environment is. It is simply not a place where normal people can live.

Due to turbulent airflow, the altitude of the aircraft could only be lowered again and again. Through the window of the cabin, the scene outside could already be seen.

It was a world completely covered by ice and snow, with towering snow-capped mountains everywhere. Even the sea could not withstand the cold, and its surface was completely frozen.

Only in the summer can we unblock and see the creatures inside, but the summer in the Arctic Island is extremely short, usually only two months, and there are at least fourteen hours of darkness.

Snowflakes have been flying all over the sky, as if they have never stopped for a moment. Some of them have blown onto the windows of the plane. Through the glass, you can see them forming an octagon, which is crystal clear and very beautiful.

Before I could appreciate it too much, the cold wind roared over and blew the octagonal bodies into snow powder, which was then sprinkled on the ground.

Many soldiers on the plane began to tighten their clothes to prevent the cold wind from penetrating, or to warm up their thermal underwear, and they all felt the chill.

Zhao Qi circulated his spiritual energy a little, and a burst of heat naturally burst out from his body, warming his limbs and bones, even if he was only wearing sportswear, he was not afraid at all.

"We have arrived at the predetermined location. There are too many glaciers and peaks in front of us. It is not suitable and difficult to fly. Do you want to land?" A voice came from the driver's cab from the speakers on the plane.

"Let's land, find a slightly lower height to stop, put down the climbing rope, and let's go see for ourselves." Zhang Zhenshan nodded and shouted towards the cab.

Soon, Zhao Qi felt that the plane was constantly falling, and at the same time it remained suspended in the air. Since the outside was all white, he didn't know how high it was.

The soldiers acted quickly and opened the door of the plane. The cold wind and airflow from outside immediately flowed in, along with a large amount of snow powder, hitting their faces.

Zhao Qi had to move his spiritual energy faster. The snow powder was melted and evaporated before it was touched, and the temperature of his body increased further.

The soldiers were in a much worse condition. Their faces were all covered with ice and snow residue. However, they all wore protective equipment such as goggles and military masks, so they were not passive.

After the plane came to a stop, the soldiers threw ropes as thick as their fists from the hatches on both sides. The other end of the rope was tied to the bottom plate and was firmly solid.

"Start with flexible movements, don't be sloppy, find the right height and jump directly. There will be snow below, so you won't fall to death." Zhang Zhenshan directed from the side.

The soldiers took action one after another, grabbing the rope with both hands and hooking their feet, and then slid down extremely quickly, all the way to the ground.

The height of the end of the rope was about twenty or thirty meters from the snow below. The bottom was covered with snow. It was impossible to fall to death from this height, so everyone jumped down one after another.

Although Zhang Zhenshan has practiced spiritual energy, he does not seem to be interested in this method. Most of the time, he still likes firearms and cold weapons, so this time, like other soldiers, he slid down the ropeway.

Zhao Qi was even more relaxed. When the cabin door gradually closed, he took the opportunity to jump down, rolled in the air very gracefully, and then fell steadily into the snow.

The snow layer here is really too thick. When I stand up, it has completely covered my thighs and reached my waist. Moreover, there are only unfrozen snowflakes, and those below are already frozen.

But it is not particularly strong, and it will still make a clicking sound when it is squeezed by gravity. If it is too heavy, it is likely to crush the ice layer below and fall into it.

Once you fall into this kind of ice hole, no matter what clothes you are wearing, your questions will be lost quickly, which is a very dangerous thing.

Zhang Zhenshan was well prepared. He and the other soldiers quickly unpacked the bags on their backs, then took out a pair of skis and fastened them tightly to the shoes, making it easy to step on the snow.

Military aircraft in the sky also retracted their ropes, closed their doors, and flew back.

In such extreme weather, the aircraft will suffer a lot of damage, so it will stop in a nearby safe area and wait until the mission is completed before responding.

After Zhang Zhenshan counted the number of soldiers and determined that there were no problems, he took out a display screen from his thick coat, confirmed the location, and started to take action.

I saw the skis under the soldiers' feet blooming with blue light, and a burst of energy shot out. They could move forward directly without using any force. They only had to control the direction.

It seems that it has been blessed by the spiritual energy formation, so it can achieve this effect. Otherwise, it would be too difficult to add an engine to such a small ski with current technology.

Zhang Zhenshan looked at Zhao Qi and knew that he could walk freely in the snow without skis, so he said:

"Our exploration team members live together with the Eskimos here. To be precise, there is probably only that small area in the entire Antarctic Island that can survive. You have to go and see it."

"Lead the way from the front. If you encounter any danger, I will take action. You can rest assured." Zhao Qi nodded in response.

Zhang Zhenshan was completely relieved. Logically speaking, it is a rule that the resources of the Mysterious Academy cannot be used if it is not confirmed to be supernatural power.

Now that the dean of the main school of metaphysics has personally said that he will take action, no matter how terrifying the supernatural incident is, it can definitely be easily solved, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

The skis at Zhang Zhenshan's feet also burst out with energy, pushing him forward.

Zhao Qi pulled his thigh out of the snow and stepped lightly on the snow.

He seemed as light as a feather now. Even when his big feet stepped on the snow, he didn't see any sinking and could stand firmly in it.

Zhao Qichao started running, his body bursting with spiritual energy. He took long steps and stepped down extremely hard. But no matter what, the ground after landing was intact without any damage.

Moving at such an extremely fast speed, the group soon stopped in front of a tall mountain. The soldiers are still quite embarrassed. Snowflakes all over the sky are piled on their faces and clothes. They look like the prototype of a snowman. You can cosplay them by inserting noses.

The only one who was calm and unhurried was Zhao Qi. No matter how fierce and huge the wind and snow were, it could not stain his body even a bit, and his sportswear was still as new as ever.

Some soldiers were very surprised by this situation and kept mumbling, but the veterans were already used to this. They had seen Zhao Qi even more shocked.

"No, something is wrong. The map doesn't say there is a snow mountain here. How could it appear out of thin air? Could it be that the melting of the ocean's glaciers has caused this place to shift?"

Zhang Zhenshan held the navigation instrument in his hand and looked at the huge snow-capped mountains in front of him, and was confused for a moment.

The map in hand is the distance sent by the scientific research team. At this time, there is no more distance than in the past, so it cannot be false.

Therefore, the greater possibility is that there are different changes in front of us, causing a large snow mountain to stay here.

"I said on the phone that there is a moving snow mountain. Is it the snow mountain in front of me that blocks the team members' way?" Zhang Zhenshan continued to mutter to himself.

Zhao Qi jumped up and came to the top of this snow-capped mountain. It was about twenty or thirty meters high. You could see that it was very steep. Going up further, it was almost [-] degrees vertical.

Generally speaking, this situation is relatively rare. Snowy mountains are the product of accumulation of snowflakes that fall all over the sky. The angle becomes more vertical as you go up. Generally, it is only at the top that it shows [-] degrees.

But the foot of the mountain in front of us is actually [-] degrees vertical. This does not look like a snow mountain, but a cliff.

Zhao Qi raised his foot and stamped on the ground suddenly. A burst of violent energy suddenly burst out, sending snowflakes flying everywhere and exploding a deep pit.

It must be four or five meters deep, and what is exposed is still solid frozen ice and snowflakes, and no other colors can be seen. This is indeed an iceberg.

This bold move made some soldiers below frown, because anyone who has survived in the snow knows that there cannot be too much noise, otherwise it will cause an avalanche.

It was a frightening disaster. The sky was covered with snow and it was piled up tightly. The weight was no less than an entire snow mountain. It also contained some hard ice cubes, which were directly cooled by being hit.

The number of people who could survive the avalanche was extremely rare, and it was all due to good luck that they did not reach the core area, and the rest could only turn into cold corpses.

Especially for the very vertical snow-capped mountains in front of us, the probability of avalanches is definitely high. Fortunately, such a bold move didn't cause anything, otherwise it would have been dangerous.

Zhao Qi jumped down from the snow mountain and landed firmly on the snow. He glanced at Zhang Zhenshan and said, "You can't tell anything. The angle of this snow mountain is very tricky, and it is very difficult to climb up."

"In that case, let's take a detour and continue walking around this snow-capped mountain. I also think it's impossible to climb up."

Zhang Zhenshan raised his head and glanced at the snow-capped mountains that went straight into the clouds, and felt that this matter was very stressful. You must know that this is the Arctic Island, and the clouds are relatively high, so the height of this snow-capped mountains is much higher than it looks.

The team started to take action again, spiritual energy bloomed on the skis, and they quickly began to change positions and move from another direction.

In the white world filled with ice and snow, it is easy to get lost. The soldiers planted some small red flags on the ground to identify their location.

After walking for about ten minutes, the team stopped again. Zhang Zhenshan took off the protective goggles on his face and looked at it like a snow-capped mountain with a look of shock.

"Are you kidding me? It's been so long, why is this snow mountain still there?"

They have taken a long detour, but they still have not bypassed this snow mountain. The snow layer that reaches into the sky seems to be an area where they will die forever.

The skis blessed by spiritual energy were very fast. After ten minutes of riding, they had to go at least two to three thousand meters.

Even so, it does not escape the scope of this snow mountain. So how high and big is this snow mountain? Is it Mount Everest?

Zhang Zhenshan didn't know how to understand this matter. It seemed that he had encountered a supernatural problem. If any ghosts appeared, it could be defined as a strange event.

When he thought of this, he immediately turned around. There was a dean of the Mysterious Academy beside him. He could just ask him this kind of question directly.

Zhang Zhenshan glanced at the crowd and didn't see Zhao Qi at all. He actually disappeared!

"No, why is the dean missing? Have you seen where he went?" Zhang Zhenshan was shocked and asked quickly.

The soldiers looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all shook their heads. How could they observe the surrounding situation when they were flying at such high speeds, with their faces constantly covered by ice and snow?

"Oh, there shouldn't be any problem, right? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. I know what Lao Zhao's strength is, and there's no way he could fail here."

Zhang Zhenshan was a little dumb for a moment, but he also felt that there would be no accidents. He believed in Zhao Qi's strength.

Sure enough, after another three or four minutes, Zhao Qi's figure appeared, but not from behind the group, but in front of them.

Halfway through the journey, he realized something was wrong here, because it couldn't be such a large area, so he changed direction and started going around from the other side.

With the blessing of spiritual energy, he moved very quickly, bypassing the snow-capped mountains all the way, and then met Zhang Zhenshan and others.

"Something is wrong, Lao Zhao. This snow mountain is too big, and why did you come from that direction? Did you find anything?"

Seeing that Zhao Qihe was safe and sound as he expected, Zhang Zhenshan immediately stepped forward and asked.

Zhao Qi did not answer immediately, but stretched out his hand and said, "Bring your map to me."

Zhang Zhenshan quickly took out the instrument. The screen above was green, with yellow lines depicting the current position. There were also many small grids horizontally and vertically, each marking a distance of [-] meters.

Judging from the map on the instrument, there are no snow-capped mountains in this place, and the distance to the destination is only two thousand meters! (End of chapter)
