774 The Fortress on Antarctica (2/2)

Garrett held the steering wheel, glanced at the coordinates on the map, and then looked at Jiang Chen who was sitting next to him with his eyes closed.

”Sir, can you tell us what the mission is now?”

”A treasure hunt.”

Garrett's eyebrows twitched, and he looked at his president in exasperation.

[Taking a dozen Special Forces to go to the Antarctic for a treasure hunt, he is certainly a wild one.]

But he didn't say anything. He closed his mouth and drove.

Unfortunately, thanks to He Gaoyang's jinx, they really encountered a blizzard.

Visibility dropped to a minimum and it was dangerous to drive further. So, the two SUVs stopped on the empty snowfield one after the other, unfolded the brackets on both sides, and fixed the body of the car to the ground.

It was getting late and people took out self-heating food. There were roasted sausages, braised beef, dried fish, and rice. The food was wrapped in a hot bag and could be heated with some water. Apart from not seeing vegetables, this meal was quite delicious.

After lunch, Jiang Chen looked at the snowstorm screaming outside of the window and continued to rest.

They had to wait until late in the evening before the storm finally passed.

The two Grizzlies continued on the road and Jiang Chen informed the camp that they would not return for the night.

However, while he referred to it as nighttime, he was actually referring to the times of 18 o'clock to 8 o'clock in the 24 hours clock format. In the Antarctic in April, dawn was just a few hours after noon. After that, Antartica turned dark early with the majestic aurora not far in the distance.

Jiang Chen looked at Garrett as he casually asked.

”Where are we now?”

Garrett double-clicked on the car map and enlarged the area.

”We have already entered the heart of Wilkes Land, and the terrain in front will be a bit rough. We are close to our destination. Should we go straight or wait until morning?”

”Go now. Maybe we can stay in it overnight,” Jiang Chen said.

Garrett took some time to process and did not understand what Jiang Chen meant by staying overnight. However, since it was an order, he nodded and set his sights back on the road ahead.

Through the plains, the group came to a mountain range covered with snow.

”The snowstorm in blowing across the mountains. Let's go back!”

”Forward! Listen to me!”

With Jiang Chen's order, Garrett gritted his teeth and drove the vehicle into the storming mountains.

The storm screamed and the windows were also screaming! Heavy snow blew like a tide. It even annihilated the car's high beam! Just watching through the window, the soldiers sitting in the car could feel the chilliness of the storm!

As they closed the distance, Jiang Chen's heart rate also gradually accelerated as he held his breath.

Finally, after passing through the layers of the blizzard, the group broke through the limit of nature and came to the forbidden area of life that was guarded by the snowstorm, unveiling the mystery that had been masked for decades.

A beam of light scattered on the cement wall embedded in the glaciers and revealed a frozen castle covered in snow and ice.

When they saw this frozen fortress, everyone held their breath...

Jiang Chen stared at the gigantic door embedded in the glacier and squeezed his hands into fists. His eyes flickered with inexplicable excitement.

[Finally, I have found it!]
