I'm so tired of traveling all the time

Chapter 40 Climbing the Snow Mountain

The next morning, after breakfast, everyone started to put on their mountaineering equipment.

Wen Liang got up early and put on his equipment. After dinner, he checked again and again to make sure that his equipment was complete and solid. To be honest, he was a little nervous.

Although I had drawn the climbing skill twice, I still felt nervous as it was my first time facing this life-and-death sport.

This feeling is different from facing a monster. When facing a monster, you feel so scared that you want to escape forever, while climbing a snowy mountain is scary and exciting like seeking self-torture!

"Don't worry, the altitude is still low and it's not that difficult to climb. Don't worry!" The captain of the mountaineering team seemed to see Wen Liang's nervousness and spoke to comfort him.

"Thank you, I'm fine!" Wen Liang said stubbornly.

The captain just smiled at this. He had seen too many young people who were stubborn and would show their true colors soon.

After packing up, everyone shared some necessary supplies, and then started to climb the mountain following the route taken by their predecessors.

It’s not that no one comes here, otherwise there wouldn’t be any special travel companies setting up pick-up and drop-off services. Almost every year, many mountaineering enthusiasts come here to climb.

After the introduction by the mountaineering team, we found that the low-altitude areas here are relatively friendly, and because many people climb here, many places that seem difficult to climb almost all have conveniences left by previous climbers.

The road was not difficult to walk at the beginning, there was not much wind and snow, and it was easy to walk. Although Wen Liang was tough on the outside, he listened carefully to the instructions of the team members around him when it came to his own safety, and tried to avoid all kinds of dangerous situations.

Everyone was in good physical condition and walked for more than an hour. They stopped behind a rock wall sheltered from the wind, where there were traces of human digging and processing. They ate something and drank some water to replenish the energy consumed by their bodies.

We set off again twenty minutes later. This time we walked longer and did not stop to rest until 1 p.m. because steep cliffs began to appear ahead.

This is still an obvious resting place. Looking up, rocks and glaciers appear alternately, which makes Wen Liang feel itchy and a little excited.

The climbing picks, crampons and safety ropes were all ready. The climbing boots of Wen Liang and the other two were strong enough, so the crampons tightly gripped the shoe surface. The climbing picks on both sides of the waist were also tied firmly and could be reached with just a stretch of the hand.

"The difficulty challenge is about to begin, everyone cheer up!"

The leader shouted to alert everyone, then came to Wen Liang and encouraged him, "Really, you surprised me. I thought you were a fledgling, but you did so well in the beginning! But it's getting more and more difficult later on. Come on, buddy, you're a good partner!"

"Thank you!" Wen Liang nodded in response and bumped fists with the other party.

After getting ready, the team leader led the way and started climbing the mountain. Two people in a group tied safety ropes, and then they hung themselves on the buckles nailed to the rock wall one step at a time.

Laura walked forward and tied herself and Wen Liang together. She pulled open her mask behind Wen Liang and whispered in his ear, "It seems that you have been recognized by Alim."

Wen Liang couldn't help but stretch his head forward. The breathing beside his ear made him feel itchy. "Alim? The leader of the mountaineering team?"

"He is the captain of this mountaineering team and has more than ten years of experience. Our journey will be a lot easier with him!" Laura pulled up her mask with a smile.

"I just want to keep myself safe and hope we have a smooth journey!"

The two of them began to climb the mountain immediately, and Wen Liang also started to practice the skill of opening blind boxes. It seemed like he could do it before, as if it was an instinctive ability, but now, with the continuous climbing, it is quickly turning into his own ability!

The almost vertical slope made everyone suffer a lot. Even with the help left by their predecessors, it still took everyone a lot of time.

During the climb, strong winds and heavy snow hit from time to time, but Wen Liang relied on his own powerful attributes to climb all the way without any obstacles. As he continued to climb, his skills became more and more proficient, and he could even spare some energy to pay attention to Laura and others!

After climbing over the stone wall, there was a glacier hanging on top, which was more dangerous than a simple stone wall, so everyone was extra cautious.

Looking from a distance, it looked like a string of ants forming a line and slowly crawling on the ice.

After everyone climbed up safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, it also boosted everyone's morale. This success gave everyone great confidence.

Seeing the sun setting in the distance, it is estimated that it will not be long before the sun sets. Especially in mountainous areas, darkness always comes early.

Therefore, the team had to set up camp early to avoid panic at night.

Pitching a tent is a technical job. When pitching a tent on a snowy mountain, not only must it be propped up, but it must also be fixed firmly in place. Otherwise, if there is a strong wind at night, it will easily be blown off the cliff.

Then they made a fire and cooked. After dinner, everyone returned to the tent and rested early.

The temperature during the day is already very low, and now the altitude is getting higher and higher, the temperature at night can even drop to minus 30 or 40 degrees Celsius. If we need to climb higher later, the temperature will only be lower!

Therefore, keeping warm is particularly important, and hot water is also a very important material. This is also the aspect that makes Wen Liang a little regretful. Because of his 14-point physique, his ability to resist cold is stronger than that of ordinary people, but it is far from reaching the level of inhumanity.

Despite the thick winter clothing, including the lining, inner clothing, and outer clothing, I could still feel the biting cold wind. Although I couldn't feel the strong wind in the tent, it was really cold.

It would be much better if I could have a cup of hot water at this time!

Wen Liang regretted not preparing enough hot water, but now he couldn't do anything about it. It seemed that the materials in his storage space were not prepared enough. It seemed that he would have to prepare more hot water later!

After all, your own storage space is very magical. What you put in is hot water, and what you take out is still hot water, or in other words, it is in its original state!

Wen Liang, Laura, and Jonah were squeezed into a tent. The space was not big. Wen Liang took out a bunch of energy bars from the space and placed them in front of the three of them.

"We should have prepared a lot of hot water. Now we can only eat more energy bars!"

"I'm fine. Have one. It's better not to eat too much of this stuff," Laura said. "After all, going to the toilet is a problem now!"

Wen Liang hadn't thought of this, not because he was embarrassed, no one would have such thoughts in this freezing cold weather, but because his butt was frozen!!

Jonah also reacted, shook his head and only took three, while Wen Liang put the rest away.

Wen Liang himself didn't have any major problems. His digestive ability improved as his physical fitness improved, and the utilization rate of energy also gradually increased. He didn't excrete much, so it wasn't difficult to solve.

"Open the blind box!"

Seeing everyone curled up in their sleeping bags, Wen Liang continued today’s blind box activity.

[Agility Fragment from Laura +1]

really not bad!

As physical attributes improve, the storage space gradually becomes larger, and more things can be put in the back, killing two birds with one stone!

At dawn the next day, everyone packed up their belongings, including eating, defecating, packing up tents and other supplies, and then continued climbing the mountain.

The leading personnel are still the Laura group and the mountaineering team leader group, taking turns to lead and guide the direction.

We kept walking and stopping, and encountered blizzards and avalanches, making the journey very difficult.

This time he was gone for four or five days, and Wen Liang opened the blind box four more times:

[From Laura's Rifle Basic Mastery]

[First aid knowledge from Laura +1]

【Combat Mastery from Laura】

[Physique +1 from Laura]

With his attributes and skills greatly improved, Wen Liang became more determined to be with Laura.
