Chapter 243: Flying Sand and Rocks
"What's going on?" Zhang Tuohai quickly squatted down to reduce the area of force.
If he hadn't been holding the heavy gun, Zhang Tuohai would have been almost knocked over.
"Commander, we just detected a force 10 gale blowing past. We suggest you return to the car immediately, otherwise you will be in danger."
Xiao Ai said.
At this moment, a piece of gravel was carried by the strong wind, brushed past Zhang Tuohai's helmet and hit the armor plate hard.
It left a mark on the riveted armor.
"So powerful?" Zhang Tuohai was shocked by the power of the stone.
He could dodge the ambushers with guns, but he couldn't dodge the stones carried by the strong wind.
Moreover, there are countless stones of various kinds in the woods on both sides. If a strong wind blows at him and hits him with "Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Origin", he will not be able to withstand it.
Zhang Tuohai hurriedly got back into the car and closed the door.
"Quick, get going, and leave this area as quickly as possible."
Zhang Tuohai said.
"I understand!" Xiao Ai immediately accelerated and rushed forward.
The big tree blocking the road was pushed aside by the huge snow shovel.
At this time, large and small stones were blown up by the strong wind and smashed towards Zhang Tuohai's infantry fighting vehicle.
Fortunately, Zhang Tuohai had two sets of armor, so he was not in any danger for the time being.
Zhao Wanwan, who had been following behind, also raised her riveted armor.
Although the riveted armor is a bit ugly, it is very strong. No matter how hard the debris from outside attacks, it cannot break the armor at all.
"I'm scared!" Crowder covered his little ears with his paws and trembled in Zhao Wanwan's arms.
"You are a tiger, not a rabbit, what are you afraid of?" Zhao Wanwan slapped Crowder twice in frustration.
"I'm just scared, boohoo." Crowder shivered.
"How dare you still cry?"
Zhao Wanwan was so angry that she slapped him a few more times.
…
"Sister, there are more flying stones outside." Su Qi was speaking when there was a crisp bang.
A flying stone hit the car window, and cracks appeared on the bulletproof glass.
"We can't resist anymore." Su Mu pressed a button on the driver's seat.
Several armor plates rose up, blocking the windows tightly.
"Sister, the windows are blocked, how can we drive?" Su Qi lit a gas lamp, illuminating the dark interior of the car.
"Easy." Su Mu pressed another button, and a huge periscope extended from the car.
"This is enough. Although the viewing angle is not very comfortable, it's acceptable." Su Mu said while patting the periscope.
Similar scenes are happening on every highway.
Although most people do not have such luxurious equipment as Zhang Tuohai, cats have their own ways and mice have their own ways. The players who have survived to the present day all have some tricks up their sleeves, and they all have their own ways to survive this disaster.
After driving for ten minutes, the trees on both sides of the road suddenly decreased, and were replaced by a vast plain.
Without the shelter of trees , the cold wind in this area became even stronger, and from time to time large pieces of rock could be seen whizzing past in the wind.
"Zhao Wanwan, drive the car to my right side and keep the same speed as me, and try to break through this area as soon as possible."
Zhang Tuohai took a look at the gravel flying past, some of which were almost the size of goose eggs. The power was definitely not low.
Although Zhao Wanwan's car was equipped with riveted armor, it was still not as stable as her own car.
"I understand." Zhao Wanwan immediately drove the car to the right side of Zhang Tuohai.
Strong winds blew from the left, and Zhang Tuohai's infantry fighting vehicle blocked most of the rubble.
Large chunks of rubble hit the thick armor.
Listening to the clanging sounds outside, Zhang Tuohai felt relieved that he had upgraded his vehicle to level 4 and also upgraded his armor.
Otherwise, even if you can successfully pass through the strong wind area, you will probably waste a few car repair kits.
Otherwise, if the car windows are broken by the gravel and cannot be repaired by yourself, the biting cold wind and the temperature of minus 80 degrees Celsius will be enough to take your life.
He turned on the regional channel and saw that someone was complaining. The gravel had broken the glass, causing the temperature inside the car to drop rapidly, and many of the vegetables and fruits that were raised had been frozen to death by the low temperature.
Some people even complained that the rubble had broken the electric heater in their car and wanted to buy some firewood for heating.
There was only one unlucky guy whose head was smashed by the rubble, and the system issued an obituary.
Seeing this, Zhang Tuohai could only hang up some car repair kits.
That was all he could do.
Fortunately, the plain area was only five kilometers long. After passing it, dense forests appeared on both sides again. The power of the cold wind was reduced a lot. However, the snow was getting heavier and the temperature felt lower.
At this time, a message in the regional channel caught Zhang Tuohai's attention.
"My car shows that the low temperature has caused the engine to fail and I can't continue driving. Brothers, do you know what's going on?"
A player asked anxiously.
Everyone knows that in this world, being unable to move forward means death.
"The engine was frozen, right? I don't know."
"Anyone who can repair cars please give me an answer."
"The temperature is too low. Try warming yourself up with a fire to see if that can help."
Most of the suggestions in the regional channels are not very reliable. After all, if it does not concern their own interests, no one will think about it seriously.
"I can give you an engine, but you have to tell me why you are in this situation." Zhang Tuohai thought about it and sent a private message to the other party.
He must understand this kind of information.
What if it's some hidden information?
"Really? Thank you so much. I don't know what happened. Suddenly the game system prompted me that the engine was at low temperature and the car could not continue to drive. I don't know what happened either."
The player replied.
"Then tell us everything you've experienced, without leaving anything out."
Zhang Tuohai said.
For the engine, the player began to rack his brains.
"I didn't do anything special. I just kept driving after breakfast. When the wind was strong just now, my car had anti-collision nets on both sides, so the outer shell suffered some impact, but it's not a big problem. Oh, by the way, because the temperature was too low, I was afraid that the fuel would be consumed too quickly, so I put on a down jacket and lowered the indoor temperature."
Listening to the other party's narration, Zhang Tuohai guessed that the problem this time might be that the indoor temperature was too low.
The indoor temperature is low, the engine temperature cannot rise, and the outside temperature is too low, which is likely to cause such a problem.
"Xiao Ai, raise the temperature inside the car and monitor the temperature of important parts in various locations."
Zhang Tuohai said quickly.
"I understand." Xiao Ai replied.
"Also, speed up ." Zhang Tuohai looked at the weather and frowned.
He felt that the situation was worse than he had expected, and he had better arrive before three in the afternoon, preferably at noon, otherwise the snowfall and low temperatures would make the roads increasingly difficult to travel.
