Chapter 9 Low Voltage Warning

"How's the situation?" Liao Jie's voice came from the phone.

Every ten minutes, Liao Jie would call to confirm the situation and ask Zhang Ye to report the situation in real time.

Because although the signal amplifier on Zhang Ye's body can emit signals, it is not a real-time signal. For the sake of Zhang Ye's survival rate, Liao Jie must follow up in real time as much as possible.

"The situation is not bad. It's just that my armpits are sore from being rubbed and my legs are a little sore, but it's nothing to worry about." Zhang Ye said.

"Well, how's the progress?"

Zhang Ye looked around, compared it with the map sent by Liao Jie, and said: "We have reached point b2.5."

There are many points marked on Liao Jie's route for Zhang Ye's convenience.

"The speed is a bit slow. We should reach point b3 by now."

"It's going to be dark in about an hour and a half, so you have to speed up."

Hearing this, Zhang Ye felt a little headache.

In this situation, if you speed up a little bit, the physical exertion will not only increase a little bit.

However, Zhang Ye did not complain about anything, but gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay!"

Liao Jie didn't say much, and kept the conversation as short as possible, so that Zhang Ye could reserve more energy for the journey.

An ordinary person with healthy legs and walking at a constant speed can walk almost ten kilometers in two hours. Zhang Ye cannot move one leg, and the consumption of traveling 6.5 kilometers in two hours is definitely greater than that of an ordinary person walking twenty or thirty kilometers.

If you don’t believe it, just hop on one foot a few times and you’ll know.

Although there are crutches, the physical exertion is not much lower.

Soon, ten minutes passed and Liao Jie called again.

"Where are you?" Liao Jie asked.

"It's almost b4." Zhang Ye said.

"The plan has changed, you must speed up!"

"Ah?" Zhang Ye was stunned and couldn't help but stop and look at his phone.

Liao Jie said: "There is a survey base station in the plain where you are, and it has just been measured that the air pressure in the plain has dropped, so the cold air flow is likely to be earlier than expected. You must speed up!"

Zhang Ye felt heavy in his heart when he heard this.

A drop in air pressure largely indicates that bad weather is coming.

If the weather is good, it will be cloudy; if the weather is bad, it will be heavy rain; if the weather is bad, it will be a typhoon or hurricane. Anyway, it is basically bad weather.

The bad weather in other worlds... is often not much better.

"Understood..." Zhang Ye took a deep breath and then increased his speed again.

Fortunately, the terrain along the river bank is flat and downhill, so the speed can be faster. Just be careful not to fall.

There are still 1 hour and 11 minutes until nightfall.

Liao Jie: "Report the situation."

Zhang Ye: "We have reached d2 and are moving forward at a constant speed."

"Can you maintain this speed? Can you maintain your physical strength?"

"You should be able to grit your teeth...Mom, I'm starting to feel a little cold..."

After a moment of silence, Liao Jie said: "Is it cold on the inside and cold on the outside?"

"Cold inside..."

On the other end of the phone, Liao Jie snapped the pen in his hand with a click, his eyes trembling slightly.

She knew about Zhang Ye's situation.

His injuries were considered serious, and he was also injected with epinephrine. The side effects continued. After treating the injuries, Zhang Ye immediately set off for a high-intensity trek.

Therefore, Zhang Ye's situation is definitely not optimistic.

The reason why she asked Zhang Ye whether he was cold inside or outside was because she wanted to confirm the situation.

External cold, feeling cold on the body surface without a significant drop in body temperature, is mostly caused by external factors.

If it's cold outside, that's fine. After all, the cold wave is coming and the temperature will gradually drop.

But internal cold is different.

Internal cold, feeling cold in the body, and the body gradually losing temperature, are mostly caused by one's own factors.

This is a sign that Zhang Ye is beginning to adapt to this world - [Adaptive]!

The so-called adaptation means that the body gradually begins to adapt to the environment in another world with the help of isotope.

When an adaptive reaction occurs, the symptoms are first internal cold, then fever. After the fever subsides, the human body can move freely in other worlds without relying on allergens, and basically no allergic reaction will occur.

And all aspects of physical function will be improved to a certain extent.

But Liao Jie was not happy at all.

An adaptive reaction would be a good thing at other times, but now Zhang Ye is facing a life crisis. He was already seriously injured and he didn't know whether he could reach the hot spots before the cold wave arrived. An adaptive reaction now will undoubtedly make matters worse!

Liao Jie didn't understand why Zhang Ye had an adaptive reaction so quickly.

You should know that this situation usually occurs after surviving in another world for more than two hundred hours. At that time, the body will gradually begin to adapt to the environment of the other world under the effect of isotope.

But how long has Zhang Ye been in this world?

In fact, the adaptive response also depends on the physical constitution. For ordinary people, it usually lasts about two hundred hours. For some individuals with poor physical constitution, it may extend to tens or even hundreds of hours.

The current longest record is 312 hours. There are no longer ones, but they just didn’t survive.

Adaptive adaptive, if you can't adapt, then the result will be a dead end.

There are also some people with strong physiques who can adapt faster.

For example, Liao Jie himself developed an adaptive response in just 101 hours.

Zhang Ye's father, Zhang Tianyan, only took 98 hours.

But what about Zhang Ye?

Back and forth, make every effort, no more than five hours!

Even if intense exercise and stimulating reactions can advance the [Adaptive Response], Liao Jie has never heard of anyone whose adaptive response would appear within ten hours!

"Mom...ah-hee...what happened?" Zhang Ye couldn't help but ask when he saw Liao Jie being silent.

However, Liao Jie did not answer directly, but said seriously.

"All you need to know now is that you must speed up and hold on no matter how uncomfortable your body is!"

"Don't stop from now on, don't stop until you reach the geothermal point!"

Zhang Ye could hear the subtle tremor in Liao Jie's voice, and combined with his current physical reaction, Zhang Ye guessed that something was wrong with his body.

But Zhang Ye didn't think much about it, because thinking about it now would only make his will to survive weaker and bring no benefits.

What he has to do now is to reach the geothermal point as soon as possible!

The sky was getting darker and darker. When I looked up at the sky, it was overcast. I couldn't see the sunset, only thick clouds.

You can imagine how dark it will be when it turns completely dark.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature has become a bit cooler than it was warm and pleasant at the beginning.

"Ye'er, don't hang up the phone from now on." Liao Jie said.

Zhang Ye nodded and inserted the phone screen into the chest pocket of his school uniform.

"It's so dark even before nightfall... Huh... I can't see the road clearly..." Zhang Ye said while panting.

"You should have an emergency flashlight in your bag," Liao Jie asked.

"have."

"Take it out and hold it in your hands."

"Most animals in this world have phototaxis. Turning on the flashlight undoubtedly tells them that dinner is here, so they can't turn it on unless it's possible."

"If you encounter carnivorous creatures, activate flash mode."

"Also, I remember that the watch your dad customized for you has a noise intimidation function. Remember to turn it on when the time comes. It can emit loud decibel noise, which will most likely ensure your safety."

"But don't use it if you can, otherwise you will easily suffer hearing loss."

Listening to Liao Jie's instructions, Zhang Ye nodded and just made a slight nasal sound.

Because at this moment, he felt that his body was getting more and more tired.
