Chapter 117 Investigation Ben Knife Forging
Click, continuous cracks spread on the ice, accompanied by the roar of the yacht cutting through the sea, extending for dozens of nautical miles...
In the distance, on the vast white ice, three black spots came into Tang and Song's eyes...
"It's right in front, lean over!"
Tang and Song stood on the bow of the boat, throwing a handful of blood pills in their hands. A black python stretched out half of its body from the sea water, spit out its long snake tongue, and swept the blood pills into its mouth.
With a crash, the black python fell back into the water, the waves rippled, and a barrel-thick python tail swept across the ice. The dark scales on the python's tail flashed blue, and the ice suddenly cracked more than a hundred meters away.
The yacht increased its power and headed in the direction of the three icebreakers.

Observation Station Zero
Under Lance's command, hundreds of people in the entire base were nervously but not too panicked preparing to evacuate.
High in the Antarctic sky with falling snowflakes, four decoy helicopters have taken off.
Honeycomb rockets and airborne machine guns are all well equipped, ready to use these heavy firepower to attract Zero's attention and buy time for the personnel of the base to evacuate.
As for whether it can cause harm to No. 0, the senior leaders of the Imperial Organization who formulated this bait plan never had the luxury of dreaming about it from the beginning.
The decoy program initially recruited sixteen helicopter pilots,
They can receive an annual salary of one million US dollars every year, and usually do not have to perform any tasks at the base observation post.
But once the first-level alarm sounds, they will activate the helicopter and turn it into a deadly bait, attracting Zero's firepower and buying time for other base personnel to evacuate.
Five years later, only six of the sixteen helicopter pilots who signed long-term contracts remain.
Five of them gave up their annual salary of one million US dollars and left Antarctica after signing a confidentiality agreement the moment they saw the frozen Ghidorah at Observation Station Zero.
Five others could not bear the pressure of dying in the next few years and chose to quit.
There are two submarines parked under the ice at the base observation post all year round. After the alarm was sounded, some important scientists, including some research materials, had all been loaded onto the submarines.
Once liquid nitrogen has no way to make Zero re-enter the frozen dormant state,
After receiving the evacuation order, the two submarines will dive directly into the deep sea of Antarctica and escape quickly.
"Didi didi..."
In the monitoring room, Lance watched the temperature change of Zero on the screen with a solemn expression!
"45%, 46%, 47%, 48%..."
The progress bar on the side is rising rapidly, and these columnar values represent the nitrogen value input into the lower space...
Once the nitrogen value reaches 100%, it means that the liquid nitrogen reserves in the base have been exhausted.
If No. 0's body temperature still rises by then, everyone at No. 0 Observation Station will have no choice but to evacuate urgently.
"89%!"
After a rapid alarm sound, the display data of the liquid nitrogen reserve value was approaching the warning point.
Lance clenched his fists and was about to issue an emergency evacuation order when the value representing zero body temperature plummeted from a peak to an inverted U shape on the screen.
"Director, it's down. Zero's body temperature has dropped and has returned to the calm period when it was frozen..."
The doctor responsible for monitoring Ghidorah's vital signs told Lance emotionally.
"I saw it!" Lance's voice trembled slightly, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Continue to monitor, and do not lift the level one alert for the time being!"
Watching the steady ripples on the screen, Lance cautiously issued the order.
The level 1 alert at Observatory Zero lasted for two days.
It was not until the third day that the alert level dropped to Level 2.
Five days later, a joint accident investigation team dispatched by the Monarch Organization Headquarters and the Federal Ministry of Defense arrived at Base Zero.
After comprehensive testing of Zero's vital signs and the extent of the iceberg's melting, the entire monitoring station was completely lifted off alert.
The members of the investigation team conducted a comprehensive investigation into the accident and retrieved satellite monitoring data from 13 satellites passing over Antarctica at the time.
Satellite surveillance footage did not capture any ship passing 20 nautical miles near monitoring station zero.
Instead, a NATO surveillance satellite captured the scene of a volcano erupting on an island forty nautical miles away from the Zero Observation Station...
"This accident was accidentally caused by the vibration caused by the eruption of a submarine volcano!"
In Lance's office, a man with gray hair and wearing the uniform of a federal air force lieutenant general signed his name on the document reply letter of the investigation results.
Thaddeus E. Ross!
Putting the documents into the document bag, General Ross had just capped his pen.
Lance pushed the door directly in and greeted him:
"Old friend, the base has prepared a farewell party, just waiting for you!"
"Farewell party!?" General Ross was a little surprised, his beard seemed to be trembling, and he frowned:
"An accident is not a good thing. There is no need for a farewell party. I have to rush back to the Ministry of National Defense..."
"Ross, you're still the same!" Lance strode up to General Ross, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a laugh:
"It's not up to you this time. It's an extreme snowstorm in Antarctica tonight. You can't leave even if you want to. Come on, I opened a bottle of good wine just for you!"
General Ross looked helpless and was pushed out of the office by Lance, half pushing and half shrugging.
Bang!
The office door was kicked shut by Lance, and the whole office seemed to be shaking.
Snap!
On the desk, a calfskin brown wallet was knocked to the ground. The wallet was spread out. On the first page of the mezzanine, inside the transparent mezzanine, was a photo of a slovenly middle-aged man in a white coat.
The man in the photo had a big cross drawn on his face with a pen, and his upper body was almost pierced into a sieve with the tip of the pen.
Apparently the owner of the wallet really "loves" this man whose face he couldn't see clearly.
…………
While the people in Base Zero were holding a banquet, on the other side, the scientific research ship on which Boss Tang was riding had already docked at the port of Ushuaia.
Ushuaia, capital of Tierra del Fuego province, Argentina,
This small South American city with a population of about 64,000 is located at 54°47′ south latitude and 68°20′ west longitude. Due to its unique geographical location, it is famous around the world as the gateway to Antarctica, and is also known as the World
The end!
Ushuaia is 3,200 kilometers away from the country’s capital, Buenos Aires, but only 800 kilometers away from Antarctica.
It takes at least a week to take a boat to Antarctica from Australia, New Zealand and other places;
It takes two days to set sail from Ushuaia and cross the Drake Passage.
Therefore, Ushuaia is an ideal starting point and supply base for expeditions and surveys in Antarctica.
Late at night, many scientific research ships heading to Antarctica were moored at the port of Ushuaia...
Due to the impact of the huge ice storm in Antarctica, the departure time of these scientific research ships to Antarctica has been postponed.
Many scientific research ships are brightly lit, and from time to time the noise of drinking and fist-fighting can be heard.
Amidst the noise, no one noticed that a yacht quietly left the port.
On the sea at night, the flameout yacht was moored quietly on the sea. The hull with the lights turned off was wrapped in darkness, and the seawater lapped at the hull, making a roaring sound.
On the deck of the yacht, a group of people stood in a faint line on the deck. No one spoke. Apart from the sound of sea water lapping against the boat, there was only the sound of one person pacing back and forth...
The white figure walked into the crowd, suddenly stopped, and drew his sword in a flash. A cold light suddenly appeared, and several people gathered on the deck covered their throats and fell down.
Thump thump thump thump thong…
Throwing all the bodies on the deck into the sea, the yacht restarted, two white waves appeared at the stern, and disappeared into the night.
…………
It is a unique and beautiful small town built on the mountain.
Tang and Song walked on the streets and admired the beautiful scenery of this small town. The streets were not wide, but very clean.
The streets are full of cute little cabins that only appear in fairy tales, like those of Snow White.
The flowers in front and behind the house are in full bloom, and it is the vibrant summer here in the southern hemisphere.
But the cool air and the snow-capped peaks in the sky make people suddenly feel the atmosphere of Antarctica in advance.
When the residents coming and going saw the four tall bodyguards in black following Boss Tang, they all showed kind smiles to Tang Song.
"Gugu..."
