Chapter 175 (1/2)
After hearing Lu Chen's words, finger showed a surprised look on his face, ”really?”
Lu Chen nodded and looked serious. ”Really, but elder martial brother, are you sure you won't go? Although I don't know what happened before, that place has a great impact on you?”
Lu Chen himself said that if he could, he didn't want to take anyone. Nibelungen is very complex and full of changes. Although he plans to find Nibelungen, he will find a way to let senior brother finger and brother Chu go out first, and take care of the rest by himself.
But in reality, many things will not go as planned. Going to the Arctic with him is definitely a high-risk task.
After listening to Lu Chen's words, finger also put away the cheap expression on his face. ”It seems that the headmaster told you, but younger martial brother, what kind of person do you think I am? Will I be the kind of person who is full of revenge and wants to risk his life and find out the truth of that year?”
Lu Chen stared into finger's eyes. They looked at each other for a few seconds. Lu Chen nodded and said, ”I think so.”
He always looks at people very accurately. Although elder martial brother finger is usually very out of tune and seems to have no lower limit, in fact, the other party is by no means a real waste wood.
”Well, well, I surrendered. If I can be praised by the S-level junior brother, what if I walk with you for a while.”
Finger raised his hand, then put on a cheap expression and said, ”but junior brother, you should protect me. Senior brother, I'm very weak.”
”Elder martial brother, you'd better weigh yourself first. You're still weak.”
Lu Chen looked at finger's strong body and was definitely a great general in ancient times.
”Don't worry about weighing. By the way, younger martial brother, can you take me with you tonight's copy?”
Finger smiled flatteringly and opened world of Warcraft. He still needed two pieces of equipment.
Lu Chen smiled, ”then walk.”
…………
Boom——
Boom——
Years of glaciers disintegrated at the foot of the steel beast, sank into the water and floated a corner. The impact sound is reminiscent of summer thunder, but it can never touch with the hot summer.
Gulfaxi is the name of the steel beast. It is said to be the mount of the Frost Giant helanganier.
Gurfaksi is 134 meters long, 30 meters wide, with a displacement of 23000 tons. It is equipped with two reactors, which can be used in deep-water waters in the Arctic Circle, and the ice breaking thickness is 2 meters.
This is an ARKTIKA class icebreaker, produced by the former Soviet Union, and there are only five in the world. It seems that the college has indeed made a lot of money for this mission.
Lu Chen stood in front of the deck, looking at the endless snowfield and feeling the fierce cold wind from the pavement.
Only when we really come to this place can we appreciate the ruthlessness of nature. The endless frost covers everything and turns heaven and earth into a piece of snow-white, which seems to purify the dirt in this world.
Lu Chen exhaled, the white water vapor rose to half, and then gradually sank. In an environment of more than minus 30 degrees, the water mist will be condensed instantly.
”Younger martial brother, would you like a bite?”
Finger trembled and walked to Lu Chen. He was wearing a warm down jacket, a thickened military coat and a cashmere hat on his head, which basically covered his ears.
He held a bottle of vodka in his hand and looked at Lu Chen as if he were looking at a monster, because the other party was just wearing ordinary casual clothes, with only thin autumn clothes and autumn trousers inside. The other party wore them in college and still wore them when he came to the North Pole!
Lu Chen took the vodka handed by finger and didn't mind that the other party had just drunk it. He took a sip of the bottle, put the hot liquor down and raised a heating. The cold feeling brought by the severe cold was dispelled.
”Where's brother Chu?”
Lu Chen returned the bottle to finger.
”Younger martial brother Chu is mending Inuit in the room, because if we step on the permafrost, we will only have Inuit as guides.”
Finger rubbed his hands tremblingly.
”It's really like brother Chu's style.”
Lu Chen smiled and said that he wanted to learn an unpopular language in a few days. It is estimated that only people like Chu Zihang have the strength and patience to do it.
This is the third day of their departure. The ship traveled from the port in the north of Greenland and went all the way into the Arctic circle.
”Lu Xiaodong.”
At this time, Captain Augustus of gulfaxi came to Lu Chen and saluted respectfully.
”Just call me by name, or call me commissioner. I don't like this title very much.”
Lu Chen has emphasized it many times these days, but some people still call it wrong.
”Commissioner Lu, with the power and configuration of this ship, we can move forward for another 50 kilometers. At about 19 o'clock, we can't go any further.”
Captain Augustus respectfully reported that even if the young man in front of him did not have the status of honorary school manager, he still paid high tribute to him.
The other party is not only the new legendary Dragon Slayer, but also the target of this mission may be the opponent of the first generation of species. You can see the young man's calm look at this time, which makes their logistics team full of confidence.
”Are the supplies ready?”
Lu Chen wants to confirm.
”Food, fuel, camping and other equipment have been prepared, but there are some small problems now.”
Speaking of this, Captain Augustus was a little embarrassed.
”What's the problem?”
Lu Chen frowned. The execution department should have arranged everything. This is a serious task and no difference is allowed.
”The Inuit changed his mind temporarily. He said that we can't go in this direction. He said that there are man eating demons in front of the snow field, and those who set foot on this land will also be condemned by the gods.”
Captain Augustus is a rare commissioner who knows Inuit and has many years of naval experience. Therefore, although his blood is only class B, the college still arranges him to be the captain of the gulfax.
”Younger martial brother, you see, I tell you to believe the words of the local people. Many of those myths and legends have statements. Why don't we go?”
Finger counselled again.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment, looked up and said, ”tell them to double the original reward. Just take us 50 kilometers deep and we can turn back. If they don't want to, leave the sled dog and let's go by ourselves.”
