Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 633 Fire and Ice

Thick oil drips down the venison, exuding an extremely tempting aroma.

Everyone who had been hungry all day felt sour in their stomachs, but when they heard Bi Fang's plan, without exception, they all stopped what they were doing and pricked up their ears.

Where is your next adventure?

This matter is much more important than cooking.

Bi Fang held up a whole deer leg, tore off a piece of fat tendon, chewed it, swallowed it after a long while, faced everyone's eyes, and said a word.

Arctic.

I'm going to the North Pole.

A gust of night wind blew by, and the fear of the cold engraved in the genes made everyone shiver.

Arctic?

Bi Fang closed his eyes and thought about it. In the system panel, a new task was glowing with a faint blue light.

[Task Name: Extremely Cold Ice Field]

【Mission location: Greenland】

[Mission Mode: Survival]

[Mission Difficulty: T6]

[Task requirements: Do not carry any equipment other than system equipment. 】

[Main task 1: Set up a live broadcast, and the number of long-term online users exceeds 5 million at the same time]

[Main task 2: Survive for 100 days in good condition]

[Submission: Self-exploration]

[Guaranteed Reward: Sense of Balance Enhancement Coupon*1]

[Time limit: one hundred and fifty days. 】

The 100-day survival challenge, Bi Fang had never seen such a long-term mission challenge before.

Especially when the location is still in the Arctic, Greenland.

The North and South Poles, the two coldest poles on Earth.

Greenland is the coldest place in the Arctic.

The North Pole is different from the South Pole. The South Pole is a continent and has the only Antarctica in the world where no humans exist. However, the center of the North Pole is not like this. It is not a continent, but a sea - the Arctic Ocean.

The island closest to the North Pole is actually not Greenland, but Svalbard, which means the cold coast. It is a polar natural archipelago located in the Arctic Ocean and whose sovereignty belongs to Norway.

The Yellow River Station, one of China's Arctic scientific research stations, is located here.

Although Svalbard is the closest to the North Pole, the environment is not the most extreme, because there is a warm ocean current near it.

The entire Svalbard archipelago is dominated by the North Atlantic warm current, and has the characteristics of a polar marine climate. The average temperature in summer is above zero, and the temperature in January in winter is between 16°C and 12°C. It can be seen that the warm current The impact is more obvious in winter, which is nearly 20°C higher than other areas at the same latitude!

From the point of view of temperature, it is not as cold as Mohe, where Bi Fang once visited, and even most of the northeastern region is cooler than it wants to come.

Therefore, Greenland is theoretically the closest to the North Pole, and the environment is extremely harsh.

As for how bad it is, you can understand it by looking at the temperature. On December 22, 1991, minus 69.6 degrees Celsius was measured in Greenland, Denmark, which was the lowest temperature ever recorded in the northern hemisphere.

Exposure to such temperatures, if no measures are taken, people will die violently within a minute.

Steel becomes more brittle than glass in the natural environment.

When Bi Fang told everyone the news and his calm tone.

Erwan shivered, and in a daze, he seemed to see the flying snow all over the sky, and himself frozen in the snow due to the low temperature.

The soul walked in to take a look, and found that there were still icicles hanging on the snot.

One hundred days!? North Pole? Crazy?

Charles, is there something wrong with my ears?

No, no, well, you heard me right.

The audience in front of the screen gasped, that was the North Pole.

Living there for three months, who can stand it?

And it's still survival in the wilderness, without any accumulated preparations and capital, and you have to face the power of nature when you go there.

Even if you go in mid-October and stay for a hundred days, it will be the beginning of January when you come back. It is equivalent to going through the entire cold winter, and it will not be over until the coldest month. You know, the coldest temperature is in October. It was measured in February.

【Fang Shen is not a human being again】

【Great, although it will be October soon, I'm already getting cold】

[The hot sweat that just came out, I shrank back in fright]

[I'm most afraid of the cold, woo woo woo]

[There is a kind of cold, it is called cold when you look at it]

Bi Fang was also troubled by this task.

There was a wilderness program in the previous life, which was also about survival in the North Pole, and some people really persisted for a hundred days, but that was completely different from the environment Bi faced.

At least the contestants can still encounter trees, shrubs, and even a lot of land creatures, and that's just within the Arctic Circle.

Bifang is the northernmost tip of Greenland.

There are no trees, shrubs, only snow, and the endless snow field. Even the Vikings will flee, because after the Little Ice Age, there are no trees for them to build ships. If they stay there, they can only starve to death.

Compared with animals, Huanghuang Tianwei is the most unsolvable and difficult challenge in survival.

There have been many ice ages in the history of the earth. The most recent one is the Quaternary ice age. Its time span is at least millions of years, and it is usually called the Great Ice Age.

Generally speaking, during the Great Ice Age, the global temperature dropped sharply, and large areas of ice sheets and glaciers would form in some places with higher altitudes, and the oceans would also freeze in large areas. The climate was dry and cold, which directly affected the growth of animals and plants. .

During the Great Ice Age, humans did not appear on the earth, and after entering human society, there has never been a Great Ice Age.

However, the climate characteristics in some time periods are similar to those of the Great Ice Age, but not as serious as the Great Ice Age, so people call it the Little Ice Age.

More than 300 years ago, during the Little Ice Age more than 300 years ago, that is, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the population was reduced by half because of the cold.

Of course, this is not directly frozen to death, but the crops are difficult to grow, resulting in a sharp drop in food production, and more people actually starve to death.

But in the final analysis, it is still brought about by temperature changes.

The Ming Dynasty was a glorious era. Many time-travel novels hope to go back to the past and change everything, but the biggest problem is not Wei Zhongxian or foreign enemies, but the temperature and nature.

Bi Fang stretched out his hand, feeling the heat brought by the flames, and looked up at the gradually sinking sunset.

The fundamental reason why life can be bred on the earth is actually because of the sun.

The suitable temperature makes the water not like the stubborn glaciers on Europa, nor the sulfuric acid rain on Mars, which makes the fire start a prairie fire.

Just the right temperature turned the water into a flowing primitive ocean, and countless molecules collided billions of times inside, giving birth to the first primitive life.

The root of all coincidences lies in the big fireball in the sky.

Bi Fang raised his hand, and the setting sun slanted through his fingers, leaving several shadows on his face.

Warm.

The black heron, which is usually fish-oriented, uses a very unusual baiting technique. Black herons fold their wings over their heads in an umbrella that attracts fish into the shade. Move slowly through the shallow water, folding the wings in a similar fashion and luring the fish. Every two to three seconds, the birds check to see if the area they are currently in is attracting prey. After noticing the fish, the black heron will impale it with its long beak and swallow it whole. It also catches frogs and crustaceans.
