Chapter 607: The Great Difficulties of Climbing the Mountains! Part 2

Su Mo took off his snowboard, squatted down, and found the scout robot No. 1, who was ‘struggling’ underground.

“Hey there, little one! Here you are!”

Robots No. 2 and No. 3 had successfully entered the mountains and were still moving forward according to the preset code instructions.

According to Su Mo’s request, the three scout robots would climb a mountain and transfer all the data to one of them for it to return back to the direction of Su Mo.

Meanwhile, the other two adventurous mechanics continued to advance toward the next mountain.

This would repeat until they climbed three mountains, then would stop until Su Mo had extracted data from them.

Of course, if everything went smoothly.

After Su Mo extracted the data from No. 1 and allowed it to move forward, No. 2 and No.3 would have just come to a stop, and No.1 would pass them and continue forward.

However, the unexpected could happen at any time.

The small size of the scout robot was both an advantage and disadvantage.

…
When going over mountains, they could easily climb to the peak and slide with the snow down the mountain.

However, if they encountered some deep pits and fell into them, they would have to wait for Su Mo to rescue them.

‘It’ll be much better when we enter the mountains. Right now the geomagnetic shielding is too strong for remote link control, and this locator can only provide an approximate position!’

Su Mo wiped off the snowflakes accumulated on scout robot No. 1 and removed the stones stuck in its cracks.

He opened its back cover, took out the memory card inside, and replaced it with a new one.

Su Mo put it down happily and watched it happily power up again, and rushed into the mountain again.

The geomagnetic reversal turned Great Mountain into a massive pressure cooker.

The barrier isolated the outside and inside, making it impossible to communicate. The “hot air” occasionally spewed out also affected the outside world.

However, after entering the “pot,” the effect gradually began to weaken.

The closer toward the center of geomagnetic activity, the less intense the disturbance.

For example, when they first arrived at the First Mountain, the range of the detector in Su Mo’s hand will be increased to about ten kilometers. The scout robot would also be able to send out weak pulse signals as coordinates.

In the future, if they wanted to travel to the Origin Camp, they could follow the directions, and the detection rate would increase by tenfold to 100 kilometers.

The long-distance link could be maintained at about three or five kilometers, which was extremely powerful!

“It would be impossible not to cross First Mountain today with the topographic map of it in hand!”

This was precisely why there were a small number of humans and foreigners active around that area. They also left behind a lot of traces, according to Marshal Wang, and he also suspected that there was a small community of humans gathered there.

Su Mo spent the second half of the day well by familiarizing himself with the dangers of the mountain and adapting to the climbing rhythm.

He was not in a rush and continued to wander around the area for a while. Then, he followed the marks he left when exploring and returned to the camp set up by the expedition team.

The three simple tents that were set up were covered with a blanket of snow.

The smoke from the cooking spread from the tents, and the fragrance of rice spread to the surrounding area and into everyone’s noses.

The all-terrain climbing car that was parked before was also being rapidly transformed by the expedition team members.

The central control program could easily increase the friction on flat ground with the assistance of the screw mechanic in the tires to ensure that there would not be slippage and other phenomena.

However, when climbing at an angle of more than 40 degrees, it was necessary to use a special anti-skidding snow chain, an accessory included in the manufacturing manual that came with the blueprint for climbing in snowy weather.

The accessory could greatly enhance the friction between the tire and the ground when climbing and even extend the spikes into the snow to assist braking when descending down the mountains.

At the rear of the climbing car, there were also additional accessories added on to the car.

Six huge closed loop hooks!

This accessory did not come with the blueprint and was something that Lu Kuan and the others had specifically prepared for the team to travel.

Mountain climbing was a physical activity.

There were many difficulties to overcome when climbing in the snow, such as low temperature, snowfall, slippery, and so on.

In order to prevent someone from falling or fainting due to fatigue and ensure that they would not leave anyone behind, it was necessary to connect everyone to ensure the safety of the whole team.

However, there was a problem.

Under normal circumstances, unless the other person climbing the mountain was a brother, father, or son, it was unlikely that someone dared to tie themselves to another person.

After all, if one person fell, it would cause a chain reaction, and the entire team would go down together.

In order to prevent such a dangerous situation, Su Mo directly connected the climbing car in the center of the link.

It could be considered a nail on the mountain.

This had the advantage of weight and being able to sustain the weight in case someone were to fall. As long as not ten or twenty people fell together, the climbing car would absolutely be able to be stuck in place.

This was also why Su Mo was confident in leading a team of hundred together.
