Chapter 932 "Express Train"
And for the last [-] meters, even the mastermind failed to obtain detailed information.
In other words, this mere 100 meters has become the most uncontrollable existence in the entire rescue operation.
This is also the reason why the mastermind only wants everyone to explain half of the plan. In the final analysis, whether this operation can be successful or not depends on the rescue team's on-the-spot coping ability.
……
The combat meeting was over, and the time was almost up. Hawes led the crowd through one secret passage after another, walking towards the deep underground of the stronghold.
The so-called "express train" is not the abandoned subway tunnels and railcars in Qi Lin's imagination, but a large natural gas pipeline left over from the old era. The pipeline is buried 15 meters underground with a diameter of 4.26 meters. The pipe wall is made of concrete. It is poured and contains four cast iron pipelines. The entire pipeline is more than [-] kilometers long. It starts from Chayandasinskoye, Russia, crosses the Sino-Russian border, and extends to the territory of China.
This natural gas pipeline was built in the early 21st century and will be put into use in 2020. Gazprom and Huaxia Petroleum and Natural Gas Corporation have been negotiating for several years just for this pipeline, and finally signed a contract in 2014. A framework agreement worth 4000 billion U.S. dollars is valid for 30 years. During the validity period of the agreement, Russia will deliver nearly 400 billion cubic meters of natural gas to China every year.It was also from this time that Russia surpassed Central Asia in one fell swoop and became China's largest natural gas supplier.
However, this agreement was not successfully maintained until 2044, and the reason, needless to say, is the damn war...
This natural gas pipeline was out of service three years before humans entered the era of shelters, and the internal cast iron pipelines were also dismantled and recycled. However, due to cost reasons, this passage was not completely blocked and remained in the underground.
Following this natural gas pipeline, the team members can quickly reach Eastern Siberia, and then all the way east across the Chukotka Peninsula to the Bering Strait.
As for the retreat route, instead of going back the same way, they used an inflatable kayak to cross the Bering Strait tens of kilometers wide and landed in the Alaska region of the United States, where the team would receive support from the "BOSS".
"This is our means of transportation."
Harveys pointed to a ten-meter-long shuttle-shaped metal cabin that was adsorbed on the wall of the natural gas pipeline and said that this kind of vehicle can use the gas pressure to make itself close to the wall and move at a high speed. It only needs four In an hour's time, they can reach the end of the pipeline-Chaiandasinskoye.
The space inside the shuttle-shaped metal cabin is very small, and everyone can only lie in the hanging bags made of rubber, which are similar to sleeping bags. The impact received at high speed in the metal cabin.
I don't know why, although the mastermind told Qi Lin that "Cheng Yanqiu" would also participate in this operation, but inside the shuttle-shaped metal cabin, Qi Lin did not see the space prepared for Cheng Yanqiu, and, after talking with other people, In the process, Qi Lin also found that they didn't know Cheng Yanqiu... or the existence of "F0905".
Could it be that the mastermind has other arrangements?The mastermind didn't tell Qi Lin, and Qi Lin didn't ask. In his opinion, although Cheng Yanqiu's combat power is indeed very strong, judging from his current form, he is very difficult to control, and he is not suitable for this kind of infiltration task at all. , On the contrary, it may become a burden to the team.
The members of the team got into those independent bags one by one, and Qi Lin followed closely behind. However, when he got into a bag, Lingkui also got into it, clinging to Qi Lin, The slender arms hugged Qi Lin's waist.
"Lingkui, why did you come to me?" Qi Lin looked at the girl lying on his chest in surprise, and asked in a low voice, but there was no expression on the girl's face.
The material of these hanging bags is very elastic, even a big guy like 0592 can be easily wrapped in it, and Lingkui's figure is very thin, so it's not like Qi Lin didn't feel crowded... But, this girl's body Clinging tightly to himself, Qi Lin couldn't help but feel strange.
Fortunately... Lingkui's body hasn't developed much yet. If it were Persephone or Song Xiaodie, Qi Lin would have been unable to control his physiological reactions long ago...
"Don't you want to be more comfortable?" The little girl lying on Qi Lin's chest raised her head, staring at Qi Lin with a pair of dead fish eyes without any emotional fluctuations, but what she said made Qi Lin completely stunned up...
Shu...comfortable... a little? !
"Don't think about it, idiot." As soon as the words fell, Qi Lin felt a strong force of thought disperse from Lingkui's body, wrapped the hanging bag where the two were, and then gently dragged Get up, suspended in the shuttle-shaped metal cabin.
"..." Only then did Qi Lin understand what Lingoi meant by "be more comfortable". Although this kind of hanging bag can greatly reduce the impact force on people, the hanging bag still needs to be connected to the metal cabin with a tie, and the impact force It is impossible to reduce it to zero, and the hanging bag they are in now is completely in a suspended state after being lifted up by Lingoi with the force of mind, even if the metal cabin outside is violently Impact, as long as the hanging bag does not come into contact with the inner wall of the metal cabin, they will naturally not be affected in any way.
The main brain has designed the bag to be as comfortable as possible, but it is not a small burden for an evolutionary to maintain this state and travel at high speed for four hours, but for Qi Lin and Lingoi, it is just a burden. It's been four hours lying in a stable sleeping bag.
"To be honest... I'm really envious of your ability... I also have psychic abilities, but why is it so restricted that I can't use them as you like?" Through the hanging bag, I felt Aoi's substantive thoughts Strength, Qi Lin said enviously.
"..." Lingkui didn't answer Qi Lin's words, but instead closed her eyes and pressed her cheek against Qi Lin's chest.
The time came soon, and the hatches of the shuttle-shaped metal cabin were all closed, and the jets of the thrusters at the rear sprayed out blue-purple flames. This strangely shaped vehicle was so close to the gas pipeline. Wall, quickly jumped out——
In just [-] seconds, the shuttle-shaped metal cabin had already accelerated to the peak, and at the same time, muffled humming sounds came from the other bags—the shuttle-shaped metal cabin would also emit a powerful force when it accelerated. The force exerted on the passengers, this gravitational acceleration is very close to the limit that astronauts have to bear during training, and among these people, except for Harveys who has a pilot's qualification certificate, no one else has received this aspect The training was naturally extremely uncomfortable for a while.
Fortunately, there were not many weak members among the team members. It didn't take long for the speed of the shuttle-shaped metal cabin to stabilize, and everyone gradually got used to this feeling.
Four hours, short or long, taking advantage of this last bit of time, Qi Lin closed his eyes, planning to recharge his batteries...
However, things didn't go as smoothly as expected. Just halfway through the journey, the shuttle-shaped metal cabin suddenly came to a screeching halt. it rang—
