Chapter 907 Crossing the Desert
? Xu Huo took a look. It would take a while for a layman to read the operating instructions for this car, let alone drive safely in the desert.
Teacher Ai has already turned on the navigation system, "This is an old navigation that has not been updated, but as long as the original road is not destroyed, it is safer to follow the navigation."
Xu Huo gave him part of the map, "You are experienced, what are the changes on the new map?"
Teacher Ai fell silent after looking at it for a moment. After a few seconds, he said, "Where did you get this map? Is it really the latest map?"
"Three days ago, the time is very fresh." Xu Huo enlarged one of the areas. "The appearance of other places has not changed much, but the Gobi desert area has undergone major changes. What was this place originally?"
"An energy mine." Teacher Ai didn''t know what he thought of, but he actually laughed, "It seems that it has been hollowed out a long time ago."
“This location is close to W19.” Xu Huo said lightly, “If you fish in dry swamps, no wonder it will damage the environment so seriously.”
Teacher Ai twitched the corners of his mouth, his face seemed to be sarcastic, but he said nothing.
Xu Huo picked up the communication device and said, "You can come here."
After a while, the three figures of Shangguan Xi appeared in the desert. Among the three, Shangguan Xi was the fastest, Ding Wei was a little slower, and the other player was at the end, but the way he accelerated was strange. It''s a jump, yes, it''s like long jump. It jumps more than ten meters in one jump. It looks a bit laborious and the speed is not slow.
?Shang Guan Xi was the first to arrive, but his face was ugly. Xu Huo glanced at him and said, "We didn''t start fighting just now, so don''t be so reluctant."
“I really wish they would take action.” Shangguan Xi sneered.
Ding Wei came over and took the initiative to hand over the energy block. Guan Xi nodded when he saw it. Xu Huo put part of it into the luggage compartment and put part of it into the co-pilot.
Teacher Ai, who has already checked the car, said: "The energy block needs to be replaced with a new one."
Xu Huo got into the co-pilot''s seat, pulled out the energy capsule from under the seat as he said, and replaced the old energy block with a new one.
“Let’s get in the car, it’s too hot today.” Ding Wei said after looking at the cockpit.
She and another player Zhao Jiahuai took the initiative to go to the back row. Shangguan Xi had not been happy with the two of them just now, so she chose the passenger seat.
?The car is spacious enough, and it is not a problem to seat three people in the front.
“I will remind you to use props when we get to the place later,” Teacher Ai said, “so that the noise of the car will not attract large alien species.”
The person in the car said that there was no problem. As he turned the button, the car flew out like an arrow. It was obviously on soft sand, but it could run as if it were on a flat road, without any difficulty at all. And the noise is lower than that of ordinary cars.
“This car is really powerful!” Shangguan Xi’s attention was diverted for a moment, and he moved next to Teacher Ai, “Teach me how to drive it.”
"No." Teacher Ai said bluntly without even looking at him: "The instructions on the operation panel have different meanings for different terrains. There are at least eight systems, and you can''t learn them in a short time."
?Shang Guan Xi was more interested. He didn’t bother the other party’s driving. He crossed his arms and said, “Then you drive and I’ll watch.”
There were two props stuck on the rear window. Seeing Xu Huo turn around, Ding Wei took the initiative to explain, "I''m just recording the operation panel. If something happens along the way, I can change the driver."
Zhao Jiahuai also nodded.
Xu Huo looked at the wind and sand outside, "It''s not safe outside the car, everyone should be careful." This is natural, but as long as the car is running, there is basically no problem unless it encounters large alien species. Some small alien species cannot penetrate even if they are poisonous. Get in the car.
But there was also an accident. After driving for about half an hour, a peculiar smell appeared in the car. Shangguan Xi was the first to notice it. He turned around and stared at the two people in the back seat, "Poison gas!"
The two people quickly covered their mouths and noses. Zhao Jiahuai kicked the car door to ventilate. However, he was greeted by a wave of air that was like a fire. He quickly closed the door. At this time, Ding Wei had already used a detector to check the air in the car. He took a breath and said, "It''s not poisonous gas, it''s a stink."
"Where does the smell come from in a closed car..." Shangguan Xi looked at the two of them suspiciously, "Which one of you farted?"
The car was silent for a moment, probably because no one wanted to talk, and then Teacher Ai said: "That''s a smelly scorpion. It must have got into the vent. The machine did not remove the smell when filtering."
He said to do it, and after a few seconds, the air in the car became normal.
?Shang Guanxi didn''t feel the embarrassment in the silence at all, and said to himself: "Fortunately it''s not poisonous gas. I think I''d better put on the protective shield."
He used a prop, a transparent square box that was put on his shoulders, which did not affect his vision and speech. He chatted with Teacher Ai, "Why is it so hot outside? It is much higher than the temperature in the intelligence. People are outside." It won’t take long for you to become dehydrated.”
“W37 Is it so hot everywhere?”
“It’s hard for you to survive in such a hellish place for so long. It’s really hard to move without food and drink.”
“How long are we going to run in this desert? It won’t take ten days and a half. Then by W19, the day lilies are cold, can we drive faster?”
“…I don’t know if any players have hiked across the desert. Maybe some people have died of heat here…”
Listening to his rambling words, Xu Huo looked at the time and said, "You can rest for a while."
Teacher Ai had this intention and found a place slightly leeward to stop the car. The temperature inside the car was constant, but he was sweating all over.
Xu Huo handed him a bottle of water, "If you can''t hold it any longer, you can rest for a while. I guess you''ll have to drive on the road."
“I can give it a try.” Shangguan Xi said as he stuffed a piece of dried meat into his mouth.
"Please calm down." Zhao Jiahuai couldn''t help but said: "We only have one car. If something goes wrong, we may really get burned while walking."
Xu Huo patted him on the shoulder and said, "If your hands are itchy, go and sit in the back."
?Shangguan Xi smiled and said, "I can still distinguish the priorities."
?Shortly after the group rested, the car sounded an alarm beep. Teacher Ai immediately looked at the operating panel and said: "A alien species is approaching at high speed."
“Drive quickly!” Shangguan Xi shouted.
“It’s just a strange species, just solve it.” Zhao Jiahuai said: “I’ll do it!”
After he finished speaking, he opened the door and jumped onto the roof of the car. After the car drove at high speed for half a minute, a lizard-like alien creature at least seven or eight meters tall appeared in the field of vision. It crawled very fast, and the light reflected from its scales was extremely dazzling. , and a pair of things like catching feet evolved in front of the body, but those things were at least two or three meters long, and when they were waved, they could almost only see their shadows!
"This is the mineral lizard!" Shangguan Xi said loudly: "It is the fastest among the large alien species in the desert, and its skin is hard and its blood is thick. It will never give up its target until it is maimed. The pair of things it raised Cutting this car is like cutting tofu!”
