Chapter 221 - Chapter 221: Chapter 221 Familiar Route (2/2)
Chen Yu didn’t say much, just took out a heating device and placed it aside.
At such high altitudes, many things were useless, including the heating device, which had to be used with caution.
A slight mishap could trigger a widespread avalanche.
“What’s your name?” the young man suddenly offered Chen Yu a piece of chocolate, appearing extremely friendly.
Chen Yu took the chocolate and bit into it, “Chen Yu, and you?”
“I’m Wayne!”
Wayne smiled, then took out another piece of chocolate from his bag.
In such extreme conditions, chocolate really was a good food choice.
At that moment, Chen Yu was leaning against a rock, squinting his eyes. The system had etched a complete climbing route through the mountain range in his mind.
Moreover, the system provided more than one route, so it was up to him to decide which one to ultimately take.
As he was analyzing the routes, Wayne suddenly leaned in.
“Brother Chen Yu, I’ve actually climbed Everest twice, but it was from the other side. I’ve never taken this route. I really admire your courage for choosing to climb from here! Many have tried before, but sadly, they all died here.”
Chen Yu took out a sextant from his body, “This place is indeed extremely dangerous, but that doesn’t mean there are no routes to climb, it’s just that they used the wrong methods.”
After measuring their current position coordinates as well as wind speed and force, Chen Yu packed up his gear.
“We need to keep moving towards the summit before night falls, or else we might get completely buried here by the snow.”
Wayne hastily picked up his backpack, closely following behind Chen Yu.
In fact, a cave like this was not suitable for shelter. Firstly, it was a recessed cave with few points of support.
They could possibly slide down the slope next to them and fall off the cliff while they slept at night.
Secondly, the entrance of this cave was almost level with the mountain gully outside, with snow falling nearby from time to time. It wouldn’t take long for this entrance to be completely sealed off.
Then, both of them could suffocate to death here due to lack of oxygen.
Under Chen Yu’s leadership, the two climbed carefully along the narrow path next to them.
As the light was fading, they had successfully reached a relatively open small cave.
“Brother Chen Yu, you seem to be extremely familiar with this place. Have you been here before?”
Wayne was puzzled. A small cave like this was completely hidden in the snow of the mountain ravine, and it would be impossible to discover its existence unless you were far enough away unless it had been visited before.
Chen Yu noncommittally nodded his head, “I’ve been here before, but I gave up when I was only three hundred meters from the summit.”
Wayne couldn’t help but sigh, “That’s really a pity, otherwise you would have been the first person to reach the summit from the north ridge.”
Chen Yu didn’t say anything more, just tidied up the place a bit, then took out a sleeping bag from his backpack.
He also drilled a few small holes in the nearby stone wall and fixed the sleeping bag there.
