Although the mission location was not far away and he could be back on the same day if he was quick, Huo Yu was still afraid that Xiaobu would be lonely, so he went to the backyard to explain the situation to him.

Xiao Bu said understandingly that if he got bored, he would go back to the beach to play, so that Huo Yu wouldn't have to worry.

After solving Xiao Bu's problem, Huo Yu drove the snowmobile to the courtyard and let Xiao Yu and Xiao Tuan get on the car.

He turned back to look at the scientific research station, wondering if he had forgotten anything.

After repeatedly confirming that it was correct, Huo Yu turned his head with a look of discomfort on his face.

I always feel like I forgot something.

Forget it, it's probably because of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Thinking of this, Huo Yu no longer hesitated and drove the snowmobile out of the scientific research station with a kick of the accelerator.

At this time, in the backyard of the 249 scientific research station.

The little white whale popped its little head out of the water and listened carefully to the sound of the snowmobile going away.

It wasn't until the sound of the snowmobile disappeared completely that the little guy let out a cheerful cry and dived into the water to play.

The backyard fell silent again.

A black and white creature looked at the empty food trough and sink in front of it, its big eyes full of confusion.

"Moo!"

The next second, the cry of grief and anger from the cows echoed in the 249 scientific research station.

. . . . . .

The extreme edge of the Arctic is not just ice and sea water, there are also hundreds of islands and fjords.

Hundreds of fjords are scattered here, and islands are layered on top of each other, surrounding the Arctic glaciers like a dense cluster of stars.

Among them, the most famous and largest island is Greenland.

On all these frozen islands, life-rich soil stretches from the edge of inland glaciers to the cape cliffs.

In ancient times, these soils were home to ferns and herbs, as well as a variety of long-extinct ancient creatures.

But now, after 35,000 years of freezing, the soil has merged with the ice and snow.

Scientists call it permafrost.

As global warming continues to intensify, icekeepers and scientists have discovered that this name seems a bit hasty, and permafrost may not be permanently frozen.

Huoyu keeps advancing along the edge of the glacier, facing the black and white permafrost.

White ice and snow are scattered in the black soil, and the mountains in the distance are also covered with a layer of white gauze. Here, Huo Yu has found the yearning and sense of belonging to the land as a Chinese after a long absence.

It's just that this black and white color scheme looks a bit familiar, as if I've probably seen it somewhere...

Huo Yu shook his head to drive this inexplicable thought out of his mind.

Now is not the time to think about this.

Huo Yu took a deep breath and said loudly: "System, start live broadcast."

A large number of viewers began to enter the live broadcast room one after another. The viewers who had just received the notification of the broadcast were still lack of interest at first. They naturally lacked daily interest in watching for several days in a row.

But when they saw the completely unfamiliar scenery on the screen, each one of them suddenly spoke excitedly:

"Wow, where is Master Yu? Has the map been changed?"

"Don't you know this? Look at the snow, and then look at the mountain. It's obvious that this is Changbai Mountain!"

"The guy upstairs is really a logic genius."

"Master Yu, are you going for a spring outing? Why are there two elementary school students in white down jackets sitting on the passenger seat?"

"As expected of Mr. Yu, he has made another big move, recording and recording the screen."

Huo Yu got out of the car with a smile, looked at the mountains not far away, and explained to everyone:

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint everyone. The theme of today's live broadcast is not a warm outing, but a more serious content."

"I just received news that the permafrost at the edge of the Arctic has collapsed, and large areas of glaciers and snow caps have fallen, which has had a great impact on the ecological environment here."

"This live broadcast will not only be witnessed by the audience, but also the icekeepers will analyze the situation behind the scenes, and maybe my teacher. I will try my best to give everyone the best viewing experience, and everyone can intuitively understand The catastrophe of global warming.”

As soon as Huo Yu finished speaking, Wu Song, who was watching the live broadcast in the Ice Keeper headquarters, smiled happily.

This brat, it’s not like I helped him in vain, he finally remembers me, his teacher.

The most direct impact of melting permafrost is surface subsidence and snow mountain collapse.

The area in front of us is experiencing this phenomenon. There is obvious mud on the surface, and part of the frozen soil has collapsed.

The mountains in the distance should have been white-headed and black-bodied, but now most of the white on the top of the mountain has disappeared, and the ice and snow have fallen to the foot of the mountain, forming a large snowfield.

If you climb the mountain peak, you can also see that the remaining snow on the top of the mountain will melt into water, flow down the mountain, and eventually merge into the river and the sea.

Huo Yu explained these basic knowledge to the camera. Although the senior executives of the Ice Keepers must understand this, the audience most likely does not, so Huo Yu still explained it carefully.

Because the people who need to understand the importance of environmental protection are definitely not the icekeepers, but the audience who don't understand.

The people who need to learn most are by no means scholars, but those who have never learned, but the actual situation is often the opposite.

Before Huo Yu could finish speaking, Xiaotuan suddenly jumped out of the passenger seat and ran to Huo Yu's side, looking solemnly at the collapsed permafrost in front of him.

Huo Yu knew in his heart that the little guy must have noticed something unusual, but he couldn't ask in front of the observing ice guards, so he could only give Xiao Tuan a look quietly.

Xiaotuan understood the idea and howled out:

"Ouch~ (There are a lot of animals coming this way~)"

Huo Yu's expression changed.

Many people believe that animals have the ability to predict disasters, especially the abnormal reactions of animals before natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, which further deepens people's understanding.

However, according to current scientific research results, there is no actual evidence to prove that animals can predict disasters before humans.

For example, when an earthquake occurs, pets such as cats and dogs at home not only do not feel any warning, but most of them are carried away by their owners.

Moreover, when an earthquake strikes, whether it is livestock, poultry or pets, they are often frightened by the loud noise accompanying the earthquake, or are frightened by the spinning of the earth, which leads to a stress response.

Similarly, there is no evidence that animals cannot predict disasters, because many animals do have various abnormal reactions before earthquakes.

For example, hibernating snakes came out of their holes, geese screamed and refused to enter their nests at night, roosters suddenly crowed in the middle of the night, turtles suddenly rolled and crawled out of the water dozens of minutes before the earthquake, and sika deer in the deer farm suddenly ran around.

We have reason to suspect that some animals may actually foresee disasters, but this cannot be used as early warning evidence of disasters.

But what Huoyu is facing now is not the animals before the disaster, but animals that have been frightened by the collapse of the snow cover, and may even have developed a stress reaction.

In other words, it is possible that a large number of animals have lost their minds.

Huo Yu's face became solemn as he heard the sounds of animals running on the ground gradually coming from in front of him.

Under the tide of beasts, how can the eggs be completed?
