Mobile Shelter

"Ji Yunting, isn't the outdoor temperature a bit abnormal?"

Upon hearing Kou Hai's question over the radio, Ji Yunting rolled down the car window, stretched out his hand to feel the temperature outside, and then answered:

"The outside temperature is about 36 or 37 degrees Celsius now. There's nothing we can do about it. As I said before, the eruption of the crustal volcano was directly triggered by those alien microorganisms in the ocean."

This causes the temperature in the original ocean area to rise continuously. As the temperature of the ocean-covered area rises and becomes a heat source, the outdoor temperature in our inland areas will also rise continuously, especially in areas closer to the original coastal areas, where the outdoor temperature rises faster.

We spent too much time in those secret realms, so even though the expansion of Earth slowed down the rate of temperature increase in inland areas, the current temperature rise is actually normal as time goes by.

Unless our convoy increases its daily mileage, if we continue at the current pace, the outdoor temperature around our convoy will likely remain at the current level.

If the convoy encounters a situation like before, where it cannot continue and needs to temporarily stop and wait, the surrounding temperature will likely continue to rise.

The outdoor temperature is still below 40 degrees Celsius, so you should be happy. Based on our previous experience, we estimate that unless we enter a secret realm-covered area, we will basically have to stay in the car and rely on the air conditioning to balance the temperature.

"As you know, brother, humans live in the Arctic and Antarctic where temperatures can drop to minus 40 or 50 degrees Celsius, but no one has permanently settled in the deserts where temperatures can reach 40 or 50 degrees Celsius."

Upon hearing Ji Yunting's words on the radio, everyone's expression turned grim.

"Old Ji, how much do you think we need to increase the speed of our initial vehicles to exceed the coverage area of ​​the high-temperature radiation?"

Upon hearing Lu Ziye's question, Ji Yunting immediately combined the previous records and made a rough estimate in his mind: "If the convoy travels for eight hours a day, the speed would need to exceed 100 km/h."

If the convoy travels for twelve to fourteen hours, it would probably need an average speed of around 60 to 70 kilometers per hour.

Continuing to extend the convoy's travel time is not advisable, as excessive use of vehicles can cause damage.

Although Xu Yinuo possesses the ability to repair, such frequent use might lead to accidents that would prevent her from taking care of this aspect.

Vehicles are the most important asset for our fleet, so we need to leave some room for error when making plans.

Everyone awaited Lu Ziye's judgment regarding Ji Yunting's explanation.

To reduce fuel consumption, the entire convoy was traveling at a constant speed of 40 mph, which offers the best cost-effectiveness.

Although the convoy was not moving fast, precisely because of this, everyone could react in time no matter what problems arose ahead.

But they never expected that, having already fallen into a rather harsh living environment, they would now face a situation similar to the shrinking poison circle in a game.

After this situation occurs, those survivors who rely on pre-stocked supplies and hide in shelters, detached from the world, will not be able to survive for long in areas where outdoor temperatures are constantly rising, unless they have extraordinary luck.

Just as there are human races like the Inuit living in the North and South Poles, there are no races that have settled permanently in the desert.

Let alone the former kingdoms of the Western Regions, it's important to understand that the ecological environment at that time was not the same as the ecological environment at this time.

To give a simple example, take Outer MG. That place is surrounded by Great Xia and the Russian bear. In ancient times, it would have been the best neutral trading city.

To be honest, compared to Switzerland, which is surrounded by so many small countries, MG actually has the most inherent security guarantee.

However, the foreign MG did not live up to expectations, and long-term grazing made their domestic land very barren.

However, the area where MG was located was once a grassland. If it weren't a grassland, they wouldn't be called a nomadic people.

Therefore, we can conclude that environmental factors pose a significant challenge to everyone.
