Chapter 1262 Interference
Announcement on this site
The lights of the camp became farther and farther behind, and finally disappeared after turning a small honeycomb-shaped sand dune.
Just now Zhang Zian was worried that someone would get up in the middle of the night so that he could see him leaving the camp, so he had been walking in the dark. At this moment, he could finally turn on the flashlight, but even so, it was still difficult to make out Fina's footprints.
Its stride length changes from time to time, it is long when walking in a straight line, and hesitates a little when turning. Sometimes it will suddenly jump slightly to the side as it walks, as if it is avoiding something.
Generally speaking, its footprints roughly coincide with the ruts of Lipett's team, and it is basically certain that they are taking the same road, winding to the depths of the Devil's Sea.
Zhang Zian judged that Fina hadn't gone far, so he didn't drive, it was inconvenient to track, and it would wake up the other members of the expedition team.
Regardless of whether or not Fina has been to the Devil's Sea before, two thousand years have passed, and even if it has been here before, it is still a strange place for it now, so it cannot speed up.
Fei Max walked in the front, and the other elves fanned out to expand the search area.
He briefly told everyone about the process of Fina's disappearance, and a series of slightly abnormal behaviors recently, including eating a lot today and drinking a lot, as if to eat and drink enough for two or three days Diet, stored in the body like a camel.
Old Tea sighed slightly, "Her Majesty Fei Na has such a stubborn character, and she must do what she believes no matter what."
"It's right to do it, but it should at least say something. Isn't it worrying us to leave like this?" Zhang Zian's flashlight only shone on his feet, after all, elves don't need lighting.
"If His Majesty made it clear, we would certainly not sit idly by, but according to what the Bedouin guides said, the Sea of Devils is full of dangers. It seems that Your Majesty does not want to involve us in danger..." Old Cha said.
Old Cha said exactly what he said, and analyzed Fina's psychology to the point. Everyone seemed to be able to see Fina proudly raised her head and said: "This is my own business, what has it got to do with you?"
"What are you talking about? It's very dangerous... Why didn't I see any danger?" Zhang Zian took a flashlight to illuminate the surroundings, and just now came in directly in a hurry, ignoring Nabari's warning.
In the dark night, the dead branches and rotten wood struggling to get out of the ground are like ghosts with claws and claws, while the translucent miniature whirlwind whimpers and blows past. This ghost that appears and disappears from time to time, at first glance, it really makes people feel chills down the spine. If I walked here by myself, I would probably feel my heart pounding, but the elves are all around, and everyone is very lively talking to each other, so I don't feel scared at all.
Besides, Vladimir wished that a ghost would come out and fight it.
I hope the ghosts don't open their eyes, otherwise they need to worry about their own safety.
Squeak—la——
Zhang Zian was startled by the sudden noise, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, because the sound came from him.
He fumbled around on his body and found another walkie-talkie at his waist, which seemed to be the noise from the walkie-talkie just now.
who is talking
Scientific expedition team?
Magic stick team?
The latter is unlikely, since they'd logically have driven far enough out of range of the walkie-talkie, unless they were walking back and already approaching camp.
He took off the walkie-talkie and put it to his ear.
Not sure if he was far enough away from the camp, he didn't want to wake up the expedition team, so he didn't speak, just listened silently.
Squeak—la——
There was another sharp whistle.
This time the walkie-talkie was close, and he could hear it clearly. Although the voice was not high, it pierced his eardrum like a thin needle, which was painful and itchy.
Grinning his teeth, he hurriedly took the walkie-talkie away.
The elves stared at him questioningly.
"Looks like electromagnetic interference," he said, but the elves obviously didn't understand.
"There may be metal mines nearby,
Like iron ore, copper ore, tin ore and the like. He explained again, "A large amount of metal will generate a magnetic field and interfere with radio signals. The noise just now is radio interference." "
The elves generally understood.
During the daytime, Wei Kang tried to contact Li Pete with a satellite phone during the usual break time, wondering if their team was in good condition, but after several attempts, he couldn’t get in touch. Wei Kang thought that the signal might be affected by the dune Interference or blocking, decided to wait until tomorrow morning to contact.
But it now appears that it may not be the dunes themselves that are interfering with the signal.
Zhang Zian squatted down and grabbed a handful of sand from the ground, spread it on the palm of his hand, and noticed that there were many particles shining with yellow metallic luster.
This should be finely crushed and unrefined raw copper.
He felt that before the oasis shrank, a spring or an underground river might have flowed through a copper mine, so the copper content in the sand was particularly high.
After walking for a while, the electromagnetic noise of the walkie-talkie became louder and more frequent, and the noise was unbearable. He simply turned off the walkie-talkie. Anyway, it might be difficult to talk normally under such circumstances.
It seems that before Li Pitt and the others come out, the scientific expedition team is unlikely to get in touch with them.
"Smells of other animals."
Femus stopped and said.
"Oh? What animal?" he asked.
Femas sniffed carefully again, "I don't know, I haven't smelled this kind of smell before. It's not foxes or scorpions before. There are quite a few of them. They should have just passed by here."
"Are you following Her Majesty Fei Na?" Lao Cha asked.
Femus is not sure, "It's possible that the smells are going in the same direction."
Everyone's hearts were raised, what kind of animal was following Fina? Will there be something wrong with it?
Fina is a powerful elf, but Haohu can't hold back a pack of wolves!
In the same way, a good cat can't stand a pack of jackals.
He went around a few more sand dunes. Although in terms of straight-line distance, he did not walk far from the camp, but the actual distance traveled was several times longer than the straight-line distance.
Since he knew there was a magnetic field here, he would not have dared to go deep alone without Femas leading the way, because the magnetic field would not only interfere with the radio, but also interfere with the compass. Orientation animals can also get lost here.
Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why the Bedouins call it the Devil's Sea.
Femas stopped suddenly, raised a front leg, signaled everyone to stop, and shook his head gravely.
Everyone understood, knowing that it must have found something, they all shut their mouths at the same time, relaxed their steps, and silenced all sounds. 8)
