Chapter 661 The temperature drops sharply and winter is coming!(1/2)

The moon rises on the branches and sets again in a flash.

As a golden light gradually began to rise from the horizon, the twelfth day of May on the last calendar day came quietly.

As of today, there are only the last two days left before the most terrifying temperature drop of minus 40 degrees Celsius in the winter disaster.

As the temperature drop approaches, the cold air from the outside begins to gradually sweep across the entire land, pouring into the entire wasteland.

Early in the morning, before it was fully light, Somo was woken up by the cold again.

Looking at the time, it was already 5:20 in the morning, he simply stopped sleeping and got dressed and sat up.

"Phew, it's really cold today!"

For cold-proof clothes, ignore the weight and sense of restraint.

Just put it on your body, to a certain extent, it's a little warmer than a quilt.

After waiting until his body was completely warmed up, Somo slowly stood up, moved a few times, and walked out of the tent.

"Hey, Director, are you awake so early?"

In the Snow Mountain Base Camp, more than two-thirds of the soldiers had woken up early and started working in the camp.

Seeing Somo walking out of the tent, many people stopped what they were doing and looked over with respect.

Last night, the temperature dropped too suddenly.

It only starts at two o'clock in the night when the wind howls, and the temperature drops by one degree every few minutes.

By three o'clock, the physical temperature of the entire outside world had dropped to minus 28 degrees, making people shiver with cold.

And at such a temperature, when the camp cannot raise a large bonfire for concealment, ordinary tents cannot completely withstand the cold.

In just one night, many people were woken up by the cold several times, and their sleep quality was extremely poor.

"It's too cold and I can't sleep!"

Looking at the kitchen tent where smoke was already rising, Sumo didn't hide anything, smiled and joked a few words.

Compared to those who transformed their bodies into mechanical beings.

Even evolving into an interstellar human did not allow Somo to improve much at the base of human genes.

Take the current temperature as an example.

According to the standard of hot and cold index, at the same temperature, the greater the relative humidity, the more obvious the increase in perceived temperature.

For example, it is also 30°C. When the relative humidity is only 50%, the perceived temperature reaches 31.1°C. When the relative humidity reaches 90%, the perceived temperature will soar to 40.6°C, which is 10.6°C higher than the meteorological temperature.

Although the temperature currently shown by the thermometer is only minus twenty degrees below zero.

But because it rained heavily all day before yesterday, and the previous snow had not melted, the humidity in the air had accumulated to a terrifying level.

At this time, according to the index conversion, it can be roughly concluded that the actual body temperature reflected on the human body has basically reached minus thirty degrees.

And this minus thirty degrees is the peak temperature that Somo can withstand.

Further down, he must also use other means to keep out the cold, otherwise his life will be in danger at any time.

At the same time, for ordinary soldiers, this temperature is almost the limit they can tolerate wearing cold-resistant clothing.

If the temperature drops, even if their willpower is strong, their bodies will quickly fail, causing unimaginable damage.

After fetching a basin of hot water, Somo quickly finished washing before the water cooled down and regained consciousness.

Taking advantage of the time before the meal was served in the kitchen, he strode to a position where he could overlook the origin camp below and looked into the distance.

The north wind howls.

In the mountains of thousands of miles.

Compared with the plains, although the high mountains block most of the cold current blowing over, the temperature inside is actually higher than outside.

But the fine dust and debris were blown up, along with the snowflakes that had not completely condensed into one piece, forming a spectacular scene like a "sandstorm" in the gaps between the peaks.

At the same time, a series of wind whirlpools carried scattered ice slag and hit the valley, making bursts of roaring sounds, which made people think that it was heaven's punishment.

"Oh, I don't know what's going on with the village."

When I think about it, before I left, I had planned to rush back to the village before the temperature dropped drastically, but now I had no choice but to suffer the freezing temperatures outside.

Sumo could only look at the direction of the village with a lingering gaze and a little emotion.

For the first time, he seems to be homesick?

North shore of the New World, Tianyuan Territory, Hope Village.

Early in the morning, the howling north wind began to rise from the end of the earth, blowing the various buildings in the village to buzz, bringing a feeling of an impending rain and the wind filling the buildings.

The force of this north wind is quite strong. It is initially judged that it has exceeded Level 9, which is extremely terrifying.

Fortunately, the village made preparations two days ago and re-strengthened all the prefabricated houses, so that they would not have to work in such a mess in such weather.

However, with such a noise, most people lost their sleepiness, and just after six o'clock, they could no longer sleep and began to crawl out of bed.

Compared with the outside, the dormitory with boiler heating is still as warm as spring.

Even in energy-saving mode, it can ensure that the indoor temperature is firmly controlled at around 24 degrees.

Except for the occasional cold wind that penetrated through the cracks in the doors and windows, many people were startled and realized that it was indeed cold outside.

When most people get up, they only wear a thin autumn coat and don't feel the slightest bit of chill.

Those who fetch water fetch water, those who wash themselves wash their hands.

As the disaster approaches, only half a day is left to start work.

Starting this afternoon, the village will officially enter the disaster relief phase, with all work suspended and everyone preparing for disasters.

But what is different from before is that this time everyone's enthusiasm for fighting the disaster has visibly diminished a lot.

On weekdays, it’s a bustling breakfast time.

Today, it was extremely boring. Most people just lowered their heads and concentrated on the pickle porridge in their bowls.

There were only a few people who had a good relationship, and those who didn't have a good relationship chatted.

Sitting at a table near the window of the cafeteria, four men, one large, three small, were quickly handling the meals that were served on their plates.

It didn't take long.

As a group of larger snowflakes slapped on the window, the older man in his forties finally couldn't help but raised his head and said worriedly to the young man next to him:

"Silly boy, there are only two days left for the temperature to drop significantly, but the director doesn't seem to be back yet. It's freezing outside, what should I do?"

"Looking at the wind blowing, you're worried to death!"

"Uncle, don't worry, the director is very powerful and he has people around him, why do you need to worry about him!"

She subconsciously comforted the old man, but after the young man finished speaking, she let out a long sigh.

"Oh, yes, the temperature is about to drop. The director has been gone for almost twenty days, but there is still no news."

"That is, the village chief stopped us, otherwise everyone would spontaneously go out to look for people with dry food these days. How can people sit still?"

The time is approaching day by day.

During the first disaster relief effort, there was no command from Soma, and there was no news about Soma.

Although most people are still as calm as an old dog on the surface, in fact they are already panicking on the inside.

These days, the village has developed dozens of times faster than before, and the number of buildings has begun to increase rapidly, gradually developing into a real village and town.

But it is a pity that the growth of these things has brought them peace of mind, but it has not increased at all.

There is no other reason.

It was precisely because I didn't get Soma's testimony or hear Soma's praise.

These buildings suddenly rising from the ground, these materials piled in warehouses, these extra infrastructures on the land.

It's like a rootless duckweed, empty and empty.

It only makes people feel that after a disaster, it will become ruins.

Positive emotions will spread, and pessimism will spread. As the four people sighed, the atmosphere in the cafeteria became a little dull again.

For a time, the sounds of chatting became less and less, and the only sounds left everywhere were the sounds of people sucking and drinking porridge.

The second floor of the newly expanded canteen.

With the further expansion of the venue, the village management's dining room was officially moved up from below, and the location of the morning meeting was also moved here.

Looking down at the people coming and going, everyone has sadness on their faces.

After breaking open the remaining half of the wild vegetable steamed bun in his hand and soaking it in the soup, Li Hu couldn't help but look up at Chen Shen who was holding it in the center.

Compared with others, Chen Shen's status has invisibly risen to countless levels since he came back from the negotiations with the fish-men tribe.

In the past, because of his youth, he was appointed by Somo.

Most people who are older than him and have more social experience than him, although they are not convinced at all, still have the idea of ​​​​competition in their hearts.

But this time, he entered the murloc territory single-handedly and walked out completely. He even signed a series of agreements to help the village develop, and the two sides established friendship.
To be continued...
