Steel Steam and Flame

　　 The temperature is very high, and the fiery red light of the setting sun that is about to fall is dazzlingly reflected by the invisible sand sea.

　　The wind and sand made everyone who got off the car squinted. They took their weapons and jumped off the heavy trucks one by one, and the logistics department personnel of the military school did not say a word. They walked into the small and dilapidated station after being burned by the blazing sun, and there was a thick layer of yellow piled up inside. The sand flooded the legs of a few wooden tables.

　　 There are traces of iron sheet fixing on the dry and cracked wood, and it is covered with fine dust. After Cassia and the others followed the two people in the logistics department, the powder began to wander in the slightly quiet room. Everything inside was as dry as yellow sand. The empty glass was filled with fine quicksand. I don't know how long the wine bottle was left, and the water in it had already drained through the cracks above.

　　 It is not so much a station-style building, as it is more like a bar. There are still graffiti paintings painted with paint on the walls, but because of dryness, the paint has fallen off eight to nine, leaving only a faint shadow there.

　　 The logistics staff walked to the sides of the cabinets containing cups and earthen jars, and cut away the yellow sand accumulated underneath, revealing the doors of the lockers.

　　 Inside the locker is a steel shovel that has been out of maintenance for a long time. Although there are no traces of oxidation or moth-eaten, it still seems to be tortured by high temperatures.

"Work, work!" The people in the logistics department dragged out a large bundle of steel shovel bundled inside. They took the steel shovel and walked to the station, where there was a tin box that was about to be buried by yellow sand. Shaped building, revealing a corner worn by sand for a long time.

"Dig, the first step of your mission is to obtain these basic supplies in the desert, otherwise it is difficult to say whether you can carry out the mission to the next step." The people in the logistics department have a shovel and not a shovel to pile those up. Huang Sha shoveled away and greeted the twenty students behind him, "This is your destination. It is your own business how you will perform the task. But if you want to survive in the desert, water is a must. Besides, When the heavy truck is driven back, steam and moisture must be added for power. Even though we have all performed operations, but the high temperature is close to 70 or 80 degrees at noon in the desert, you are wearing this suit and not being roasted into dried meat. ."

　　 "This is a small supply station previously abandoned by the military. According to the record, there should be some desert trekking supplies left in it." The yellow sand was flying in the wind, and the two people in the logistics department were wearing masks. They had prepared. But among the students who also took out their masks and straps, there were only a handful of four people.

　　 Everyone's interpretation and preparation of the task are different.

　　 The yellow sand flew up and turned into a mist of dust in the air. The strong wind formed by the huge temperature difference between day and night was blocked in front of the station, forming a small whirlwind here, and the dust remained for a long time.

　　 The pile of sand did not seem to have much volume, but it was not until the dark blue night sky was filled with stars at night that the location of the iron door was barely dug out.

　　At this moment, the time on the mechanical watch is already at ten o'clock.

　　 Inside the iron door is the dead air that has been silent for a long time, and the surrounding temperature has now dropped to about minus five degrees. The air sucked into the throat is not only cold, but also dry and dry. In the dark yellow that is invisible in the distance, there will be several hungry wolf roars from time to time.

　　 Below the door is a staircase built by stone steps leading to the basement, and there is also a little gravel on it. People from the logistics department of two schools walked in front under bright lights. However, there are dozens of steps, and at the end is a short corridor. When you get out there, you will see the spacious storage room underground.

The people in the logistics department inserted the passcard into the card slot on the side of the corridor. The various gear shafts of the differential engine that hadn't been in operation for a long time seemed to be rotten old bones, and the harsh friction sound from the operation was in the underground storage room. It echoed for a long time.

　　 The high-pressure mercury lamp on the roof began to flicker like fireflies, and the stored electricity allowed them to regain their vitality after being left for too long.

　　 Several minutes have passed since all the lights were on, and the small features of the basement really showed in their eyes.

　　 Maybe they have been accustomed to seeing such a dilapidated and abandoned base. The two people in the logistics department only took the water pipe and the steam hose to go out to supplement the source of power for the heavy truck. The site of the abandoned base was built on an underground river in the desert, so as to ensure that there are enough sources of life water and steam in such a thirsty desert.

"The materials prepared for you are in the iron boxes in the corners. Be sure of yourselves early. There is not much time left for you to set off." The two people went out holding a long pipe and did not forget to stand aside. Watching Cassia, they reminded them.

　　 Those boxes are tightly sealed. It may be the last thing left here. When I gave up this small station, I didn't know how long these things would come in handy, so they were all welded to the tin box.

　　 "I'll come." When everyone looked at the iron box and worried, Gustin spoke at this moment. After the distribution of materials means the formation of the team, it is his mind to show his strength at the right time.

　　 This is an ordinary metal box with a thickness of one millimeter. Gustin drew out his dagger, stepped forward to stand firm, very particular, with a lot of effort and speed. After four sparks flashed, a square iron sheet fell down. The iron sheet cut by the dagger is silvery white, and the scratches are very smooth.

　　 Several iron boxes were all cut open, and the dagger in Gustin's hand still shone with cold light, without even a trace of obvious friction. This not only represents the excellent workmanship of the dagger, but also the accuracy of Gustin's swordsmanship and power angle control.

　　 Sure enough, the overall performance ranking is still somewhat convincing, and Cassia stood silently in the crowd.

Inside the box are water bags, sand-proof masks, backpacks, sun-shielding clothes, tents, compasses, small thermometers, detailed maps of the surrounding area, high-top shoes of different sizes, ropes, ... www.mtlnovel .com ~ Twenty people are more than enough.

　　 Everyone silently searched for something suitable for themselves, and then changed their clothes as needed.

　　 Time flies quickly. When everyone is ready, the time has arrived late at night and the temperature has dropped to minus fifteen degrees. There was a strong wind outside, and the quicksand rolled under the wind, and the sea of ​​sand made the dreamy sound of countless ants walking.

　　 The status of the heavy truck has been restored. The two people in the logistics department activated the heavy truck, and finally said, "You have to leave early. You can't reach the range of Gerun Oasis before the night of the full moon. That is a very troublesome thing. Finally, I wish you good luck!", He disappeared into the yellow sand swept across the sky with two huge lights.

　　 The atmosphere in the basement suddenly became subtle. It was because they discovered that the people in the logistics department left nothing, not even food. After sending a group of people here, the two of them had no more words, except for the last kind reminder.

　　 Everyone thought of the map in their hands. When the map is unfolded, there is a map of yellow sand on it, and a big, twisting river like a blue sharp blade divides the entire huge desert into two halves. A crescent-like inner lake was embedded in the middle of the desert, and a little green circled around it. The largest piece of green is the green area on the edge of the crescent moon, with "Gerun Oasis" marked on it.

　　 And the old station where they are located is marked 7734 on the map, and the distance between the two on the map is visually checked, and the scale data is silently multiplied in the heart.

　　 The actual distance is more than 3,000 kilometers, and it is 13 days from the night of the full moon. They read silently in their hearts almost at the same time ~www.ltnovel.com~ Welcome to read it.
