The first thousand four hundred and twenty chapters of another world (135)(1/2)
Booktonlin Yuan watched Pang Xiaonan come over, put his hands on his hips and yelled: "All members of the Black Mamba Guard, gather!"
Everyone in the Black Mamba Guard immediately trotted all the way around Booktonlin.
Booktonlin looked around the entire team members majesticly and said, "We experienced a lot of danger yesterday, and today will be another day of difficulties. Let me arrange the formation and assign tasks."
Buctonlin coughed and cleared his throat, "There are only eight people left in our ten-person group, and I will be led by Buenoski and I, the back of Wuzhen and Nandegrad, Pang Xiaonan and Li Yis, and Wu Yongqiang and Davao Khan Khan are on the outside. Everyone must maintain their formation and be energetic. I don't want any more casualties, do you understand?"
Booktonlin's last words were loud, which made everyone's spirits cheer up.
"clear!"
The response from the Black Mamba Guard was uniform and loud, and the birds in the jungle were shaking, accompanied by the clear and silenced cries.
The scientific expedition team was ready to go. Buktonlin stood in front of the team and spoke loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, today, we will continue to travel through this jungle. First of all, I want to praise everyone for their bravery. After so many dangers, everyone is willing to continue moving forward. Then here, I will also guarantee that our Black Mamba Guard will do its best to protect everyone's safety. Please abide by our agreement, don't walk around casually, and must maintain a good formation. Okay, I'll say here and let's go!"
The entire team began to move, and after a night of rest, the team moved much faster.
The surrounding scenery began to change a little, the vegetation was not as dense as in the jungle, the view became wider, and the flowers and plants along the way began to increase, which made people feel like they were walking upwards, and the weather seemed not so hot.
"Professor Li Sanming, do you think we are moving from tropical regions to subtropical or even temperate?" Murong Linlong, an environmental scientist who had never made any noise along the way, walked beside Li Sanming and raised a doubt to him.
"Well, I also find it a little strange." Professor Li Sanming looked around, "The vegetation here is very different from what we encountered yesterday. It seems that we have walked a lot of distance to a high altitude, but in fact, we have only walked less than half an hour."
As a geologist, it is naturally worthy of the vegetation characteristics of various areas. Professor Li Sanming and Murong Linlong have many common topics.
Murong Linlong is a well-known environmental scientist in China. He is about forty years old, tall and thin, wearing a pair of gold wire glasses, and his long thick black hair is almost shoulder-length, and he has a very popular star style.
Murong Linlong once successfully predicted a tsunami in the south of China, which made the whole world admire him. This time he participated in the Bloss Disc Expedition despite the danger, just to uncover the veil of the new Bloss and figure out what special environmental factors are there in the only unknown virgin land in Hallelujah.
These days, he has been observing the surrounding environment of New Bloss. He has discovered an important change, which is to walk from the outer edge of New Bloss, and there is a sudden change in the climate. For example, you were still on the hot equator yesterday, but after only one night, after two steps, you came to the cool early autumn.
Just like Professor Niuphras's assistant Yang Dating, even if he sleeps in a tropical environment, he cannot be frozen. Even at night, the tropical nights are hot and hot, and there is no wind and cold. This can only show one problem, that is, the nights in New Bloss are not tropical.
In some places, high mountains will change in all seasons. For example, you are still unbearable at the foot of the mountain, but as the height increases, when you reach the mountain, it may be a temperate scenery, the trees turn into coniferous forests, the temperature gradually becomes cooler, and when you reach the top of the mountain, it is already covered with snow.
This requires a great change in height to achieve, but according to Murong Linlong's observation, the altitude of their walking in New Bloss did not change much.
Murong Linlong brought a precision electronic watch that can monitor the surrounding ambient temperature, humidity, air pressure, altitude and other parameters in real time. In short, his discovery refreshed him. In New Bloss, although the altitude has not changed much, other parameters have indeed changed very violently.
Suddenly, a sound of gurgling water came, and everyone accelerated their pace, wanting to see the newly discovered river in New Bloss.
According to Buenoski's description, the water of this stream is clear and cold, and everyone is full of expectations.
Soon, the scientific expedition team arrived next to a stream about ten meters wide, and everyone was fascinated by the scenery in front of them.
The stream is as Buenosky said, it is indeed clear. There are stones of all sizes at the bottom of the river. There are huge rocks on both sides of the river. The bottom of the river is round pebbles. The water and grass on both sides of the river are lush, and colorful flowers bloom on the meadows on the river bank.
"This is somewhat like the flowing water in the mountains." Murong Linlong turned his head and said to Professor Li Sanming.
"Indeed," Professor Li Sanming looked at the gurgling stream, "It's so different from the river we first encountered. That river is a typical tropical rainforest river. This river is somewhat like the lake water on the top of a mountain or the water flowing down from snow."
"But logically speaking, if we cross several climate zones, the temperature should still change, but we don't feel that the temperature has changed too much." Murong Linlong touched his arm. He was wearing a long-sleeved single dress so that he would not be bitten by mosquitoes in the jungle, but the clothes were very thin, but he didn't feel cold and was still very hot.
"It's just that the geological environment has changed, but the temperature has not changed, which is really strange." Professor Li Sanming has been engaged in geological work for so many years and has seen countless strange landforms, but this is the first time he has encountered such an incredible situation.
"First mate, this is the stream you are talking about. Is the water you are making from this stream?" Booktonlin looked at Buenosky, and the sweat beads on his forehead shining.
Buenoski squatted down, dialed the clear stream with his hands, and said, "Yes, Captain, this is the stream we used to draw water. The sun is so big, the stream is still cold."
Booktonlin turned to the people behind him and shouted: "Everyone can fill the water in the river with their own kettle and take it to drink on the road."
So everyone came to the bank of the stream with excitement. Lima Oda took off her shoes and jumped into the stream, happily jumping in the shallow water, stepping on pebbles up the stream.
Pang Xiaonan frowned and shouted at Lima Oda, "Professor Lima Oda, please get ashore quickly. The water is dangerous. Also, are you asking us to drink your foot washing water?"
Lima Xiaotian frowned, raised her eyes, and turned around and shot two solemn eyes, which made Pang Xiaonan feel furious.
"Captain, why are there no fish in the river?" Davao Khan muttered while pouring water into the kettle, "If there are fish, our meal will be settled again."
"Have you ever heard that there will be no fish when the water is clear? The stream is so clear, how can there be fish." Booktonlin was also pouring water into his kettle. "Besides, the breakfast you just ate is something you want to eat again. Don't forget that we have to rush forward."
"There are no fish. Maybe you can turn over the stones and there are crabs." Wu Yongqiang, who was flooding the water, took over the topic. He grew up in the countryside, and the scene of climbing stones and looking for crabs was lingering in his mind.
"After everyone has filled the water, they can drink some water in the stream and fill their stomachs, so that they can save some fresh water on the road." Booktonlin filled the water and advised everyone, fearing that there will be no more fresh water on the road.
After hearing what Booktonlin said, everyone leaned their mouths towards the water. Someone buried his head directly under the water. While feeling the coolness of the stream, they sucked the sweet stream in small mouths.
Suddenly, a pleasant scream scared everyone, "Ah, there is a snake!" It was Oda Lima's voice.
Everyone followed Oda Lima's gesture and saw that there was indeed a thin water snake swimming in the stream not far away.
Lima Oda's cry scared Booktonlin so badly that he thought another prehistoric python had appeared, and it turned out to be just a small water snake.
"Captain, do you want to kill it?" Wu Zhen held the submachine gun tightly and stared at the free water snake swimming in the water with an S-shaped pace.
"There is no need to waste bullets." Booktonlin was very calm. This water snake did not pose a threat to everyone.
"Have you all been filled with water? If you have finished, leave the water quickly and don't be bitten by the water snake." Booktonlin stood on the shore with his hands on his hips, urging everyone to leave the water quickly.
The water snake did not take this group of people seriously at all. It swam down the noses of the people and headed far away.
"Shh..." Lima Oda let out a long sigh, touching her beating little heart, and sighed loudly, "It turns out that I was not here to bite us."
"If you don't bite it, how could it bite you?" Pang Xiaonan added.
Lima Oda glared at me again, clenched her fists and was ready to go. Pang Xiaonan quickly flashed aside and pretended to talk to Professor Li Sanming.
"Professor, do you think the climate here is changing a little faster?" Pang Xiaonan also felt the major changes in the surrounding environment.
"Did you notice it too?" Professor Li Sanming turned his head with a smile, "We were discussing just now that the climate here is a bit like temperate, which is completely different from the tropical rainforest environment we experienced before."
Professor Li Sanming pointed to Murong Linlong beside him.
Pang Xiaonan smiled at Murong Linlong. He had little communication with Murong Linlong along the way. He was the most taciturn scientist in the scientific expedition team, so he almost didn't attract much attention.
Murong Linlong also squeezed out a little smile. Although he didn't like dealing with people, Pang Xiaonan left a deep impression on him. He was not an ordinary person or an excellent person. Excellence is no longer enough to describe Pang Xiaonan. He was like a god descending to earth in the process of fighting monsters.
"Hello, Pang Xiaonan, I am Murong Linlong. I mainly study the causes and changes of the environment. Thank you for your protection along the way." Murong Linlong actually took the initiative to introduce himself, which is incredible in normal times.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, this is what I should do." Pang Xiaonan stretched out his hand and shook Murong Linlong.
At this time, Professor Niuphras also came over and interrupted with a smile: "Everyone, I have discovered another phenomenon. Do you think it is easier to walk on your own?"
"Walking easier?" Professor Li Sanming was a little surprised. He didn't pay attention to this phenomenon at all. However, when Professor Niuphras mentioned this, he seemed to have made his pace much lighter.
"You mean, are we subject to less gravity?" Murong Linlong was very sensitive. He seemed to have made some sense from the expression of Krass.
Professor Niuphras nodded and said, "Yes, I am a physics researcher and I am more sensitive to gravity. You may not pay attention to it, but I feel that the gravity we are suffering from is smaller than any place in Hallelujah."
Professor Niuphras once went to a place called Pratini Island.
Pratini Island is also called Giant Island. It is a beautiful island with picturesque scenery. At the same time, a magical magic on the island puts a mysterious veil on it.
Pratini Island is located on the border of the Farak Republic. The residents living on the island are generally over 1.9 meters tall. What’s amazing is that there is no dwarf on the island. This discovery aroused people’s curiosity about Pratini Island. Because adults and even elderly people living on the island can grow taller, this island is therefore called the “Giant Island”.
It is speculated that there is a mysterious magnetic field on the island that can resonate with the human body, stimulate physical potential, and thus make the human body taller.
There is a medical technology in the world that can increase a person's height through surgical bone assembly and make you grow 3-4 cm tall. There are many people who respond, but after all, it is surgery and it is very risky and may have sequelae.
Pratini Island not only makes people taller, but also has charming scenery and picturesque landscapes. Pratini Island is a transliteration. If you want to translate it, it is the island of flowers. The island is as its name, the ocean of flowers, where there are flowers, there will be bees, and where there are bees, there will naturally be honey. Pratini Island’s honey is famous far and wide, and the island is also rich in fruits, sugar cane, pineapple, and bananas. Tropical fruits are very sweet. On a sunny afternoon, it is so wonderful that it is to lie on a rocking chair, eat fruits, watch the sea of flowers, and grow taller.
Another landscape on the island is the volcanic group. If the Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain is a shining pearl in the northeast, then there are many pearls on Pratini Island waiting for your exploration and discovery. The beaches of Pratini Island are very different from ordinary beaches. Some people may have been to Qingdao's golden sand beach. The sea sand is golden and soft, but the beaches of Pratini Island are different. The sand on the beach is composed of black, white or salt-colored sand, soft but not thin, and colorful like a paradise in dreams.
The first residents of Pratini Island were indigenous people. You can also enjoy the local dance Creole dance, which is a kind of confession, a kind of hope for Pratini Island by local residents.
What’s even more amazing is that not only the indigenous people on the island, but also adults from other places can grow taller after living on the island for a period of time.
People who travel on the island, who live for more than half a month, will be surprised to find that their height will grow by 2-3 cm. This discovery has greatly driven the local tourism industry and caused people around the world who want to grow taller and long to grow taller.
For example, 64-year-old scientist Dr. Greyhua and 57-year-old assistant Dr. Li Lian lived on the island for two years, and the two rose by 8 cm and 7 cm respectively. The 40-year-old zoologist Feley visited the island for 3 months and grew 4 cm taller when he left. In fact, not only people, but animals, plants and insects on the island grew faster. The mice on the island all grew the same size as cats.
What exactly is the force that prompts the rapid growth of adults, animals, plants and insects on the island? Where does this mysterious power come from?
In order to understand the answer, many scientists traveled to the ocean to inspect the island and proposed various hypotheses and speculations. Some people believe that there may be a flying saucer or other aliens crashing here. The wreckage of aliens emits unknown radiation, which is the rapid growth of organisms on the island. However, it is not known whether there are aliens in the world. Others believe that the island contains a mineral with special radioactivity, which can mutate the organisms, thus "enhancing" the body.
Professor Niuphras has been to Pratini Island personally. He has studied it for several years and believes that the main reason why the local area can make people taller is that the gravity on the island is much smaller than other places. Because there is no downward traction force, the human body will grow upwards. In addition, the pleasant climate and food in the local area supplement other elements needed by the human body. Therefore, under the influence of these comprehensive conditions, people can grow taller quickly, and even people who have already closed the bone and dirt line can form a second development.
Since he set foot in New Bloss, Professor Niuphras has been observing the gravity conditions of New Bloss. He was surprised to find that this place is smaller than the gravity of Pratini Island. Therefore, he thought of the many prehistoric monsters they encountered, and it is very likely that they can grow so big because of the small gravity.
"I think the gravity of New Blos is smaller than all the places I have seen. I suspect that the animals here can grow so big because the gravity here is smaller." Professor Niuphras expressed his amazing view to Professor Li Sanming.
"Why do animals grow bigger if the gravity is small?" Pang Xiaonan was very interested in this novel view.
Professor Niuphras explained: "This is easy to understand. For example, if you go climbing a mountain, if you carry less weight on your body, you can easily climb up. But if you carry more weight on your body, or you have to take care of others, then you either can't climb or climb slowly. The same is true for growing taller. You have to grow up, but if you are trying hard to pull your body down, you will not grow taller or grow slowly. This force is gravity. Of course, gravity is only part of the reason, but it is the most important reason."
"But overcoming gravity, you can only grow taller, but you can't grow taller, right?" Pang Xiaonan scratched his head, still a little confused. "The monsters we meet here are giants, not just taller."
"High and big complement each other, and creatures always grow in proportion," Lima Oda added on the side. She chased her and wanted to hit Pang Xiaonan. Unexpectedly, she encountered such an academic discussion scene. "If you grow one inch taller, your horizontal width will also increase accordingly."
"But aren't there any tall and thin people in the crowd, the kind who are tall and not strong." Pang Xiaonan felt that Lima Oda's statement was wrong. There are both tall and thin and thin people in this world.
"He looks thin, but he has no flesh, but his skeleton must grow in proportion, and what you are talking about is a small probability in the crowd..." Lima Oda glared at Pang Xiaonan again. This kid always likes to argue or argues with scientists.
"You are right," Niuphras stood next to Oda Lima with a smile. "Georgetic force is a general term. The force I mean is not only to pull down, but also to squeeze your body. What I want to say is that the magnetic field here will make people swell and the body will expand. Of course, your mood will also relax. Everything will make you grow more freely, both physically and psychologically..."
"I didn't feel relaxed. I encountered so many monsters along the way, and so many people died." Professor Li Sanming's mood has not been good, because the road ahead is long and I don't know what dangers I will encounter, although the scenery now looks so charming.
"Okay, everyone, if everyone has filled the water, we will continue to set out and find a convenient place to cross the river. We will cross this stream first." Booktonlin saw that everyone had filled the water next to the stream one after another, quenched their thirst, and decided to rush.
Booktonlin led everyone upstream along the stream to see if there was any suitable place to cross the river.
Finally, I reached a relatively shallow water surface, with large pieces of stone lying across the middle of the stream, revealing a piece on the water surface, without any water stains caused by the sun.
Booktonlin pointed to the big rocks in the stream and said to everyone: "Let's cross the river by stepping on these big rocks. Everyone should slow down and don't fall into the stream."
To be continued...
