80: Chapter 80: Powerful Feng Shui Energy Field, Domestic Professional Level, Development in Various Countries

The real reason attracting so many Exploration Teams here is that, according to rough official estimates, there are at least six or seven hundred meteorite landing sites here.

However, the magnetic field interference in this area is extremely high, making electronic equipment completely unusable.

Some areas even interfere with human sense of direction, leading to getting lost and losing contact in certain places. Therefore, most Exploration Teams only scratch the surface at the edges and dare not venture deep.

This is the reason why, in most large meteorite landing areas today, even though Mutant creatures and enhanced creatures pose little threat to official modern firepower, elite squads are still used for exploration.

Under strong magnetic interference, modern communication fails completely. Even satellite coverage of this area is interfered with, resulting in a total loss of understanding regarding the Forbidden Zone. Furthermore, being in a high mountain and deep forest no-man's-land, the logistical support capability of modern military forces is greatly reduced.

Adopting light firearms and quiet compound crossbows is the most cost-effective approach. Such official practices naturally set an example for other Exploration Teams.

From the initial large-scale searches with dozens of people, suffering attrition due to various situations from time to time, to the current small and elite Precision operations, and finally, having all top Exploration Teams led by combat-type Professionals.

If a meteorite shower occurs again in the future, it is more likely that Exploration Teams consisting entirely of Professionals will appear.

As for the strong magnetic interference, even top Exploration Teams are significantly affected. After all, even Professionals are still human, and their biological magnetic fields are also subject to interference.

After everyone settled into this large camp, Chen Yanshan and Liu Tingquan collected intelligence on the various Exploration Teams, others assembled tents to prepare the camp, and Xu Feng prepared lunch for everyone.

Just as everyone settled down, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

"Quick, hurry, hurry, quick, doctor!"

Seven or eight disheveled Exploration Team members, some without even their backpacks, were seen carrying two pale team members covered in ice crystals into the camp on a stretcher made of woven tree branches.

This large camp had relatively good infrastructure and was close to a nearby small town.

The environment in this scenic area was extremely harsh, and casualties occurred frequently, so the authorities had deployed several Professional medical personnel and corresponding medical equipment.

Hearing the commotion outside, everyone in the camp ran out to take a look.

Medical personnel rushed out, leading this Exploration Team to take their injured members into the medical room nearby.

After sending the injured away, this Exploration Team finally heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground, exhausted.

Acquaintances nearby immediately went up to help them and ask questions.

"What happened to you guys? What's going on with those two?"

The leader of the Exploration Team sighed deeply and said with great regret.

"Because of our greed, we went too deep into the mountains. By the time we wanted to turn back, we couldn't find the way home."

"It just so happened that we encountered a blizzard at that time, and two team members got separated."

"The rest of us hid behind a large rock to escape the blizzard."

"When we found the two missing members, even with Professional thermal gear, they had already fallen into hypothermia."

He said with a lingering fear on his face.

"Whatever you do, don't go deep into the mountains; the weather in there is just too bizarre."

"The weather looked perfectly fine before, but in less than half an hour, a blizzard started—the kind where you can't even keep your eyes open."

"It's a good thing we found some shelter, otherwise our entire team might have been wiped out."

Seeing the expressions on him and his teammates, the others believed most of what they said. However, it also cast a shadow over their future explorations.

But they also thought that if they hadn't found many job-change stones, they wouldn't have gone deep into the mountains.

This meant that there were still many job-change stones in this area that hadn't been discovered yet.

Moreover, there were very few other creatures at the top of the mountains, so the probability of finding job-change stones was quite high.

Of course, how to consider it specifically is a matter of opinion.

In the afternoon, Chen Yanshan and Liu Tingquan had collected most of the information on the Exploration Teams.

"From what we can see, the other 5 Exploration Teams are basically operating at the edges of the mountain foothills."

"The 3 top Exploration Teams are Shenzhou Mining, Chunhe Aluminum Industry, and Tianqi Club."

"The number of people is not high, around 6 to 8, which is about the same as us."

"Oh, two of them are our old acquaintances."

"Who is the captain of Chunhe Aluminum Industry?"

"The one named Ye Xingchen whom we met before."

Incarnation opened his phone and searched the official platform for information on this Ye Xingchen.

"What is the situation with these 3 teams now?"

"These 3 Exploration Teams are also exploring deep into the forest along the foothills. No Exploration Team would climb up into the mountains."

"And they only enter for a very short time each trip. At most 5 days, at least 3 days, they will come out; they simply dare not stay inside for long."

"I don't know if that Exploration Team from just now was lucky or just arrogant and greedy. Other top Exploration Teams don't dare to explore that deeply; they really have a death wish for going in that far."

After dinner in the evening, Incarnation gathered all the team members together to discuss their direction for tomorrow.

Inside the camp tent, a comprehensive satellite map of Jiuzhaigou from before was laid out on the table.

"Our goal for this exploration is to focus on moving along the rivers."

"The climate is warm now, and the weather around these rivers is relatively stable. It is safer when we are moving, but there is also a downside: other wild animals and Mutant creatures also live here."

"Among them, leopards and black bears pose the greatest threat to us, but fortunately, they are not gregarious animals."

"The entire Jiuzhaigou area has four rivers originating from the snowmelt on the high mountains, which eventually converge into the Baishui River in the north."

Incarnation used a pen to mark the four rivers, sorting them as 1, 2, 3, and 4 from left to right.

"We have just arrived and don't know much about the specific situation here."

"The environment here is so harsh that it will be difficult to finish searching in a short time."

"We can first explore the outer rivers 1 and 4. As for whether to venture deep into the mountains or stay on the edges later, it will depend on the situation we find during this field investigation."

...

After the discussion concluded, everyone went back to rest.

In his tent, Incarnation released a wisp of Divine Qi to scan the entire camp.

Of the 3 top Exploration Teams, except for Shenzhou Mining which was still exploring, Chunhe Aluminum Industry and Tianqi Club had returned for rest these past few days.

The most prominent among them were their two captains, Ye Xingchen and Qi Tianheng, whose biological magnetic fields were at least one or two times higher than others.

The biological magnetic field can be considered the most intuitive external reaction to a Professional's three-dimensional attributes.

By observing Mo Yuemie's current biological magnetic field and comparing it with other ordinary people. After ten-plus days, with her level now reaching around 1.2, it is reflected in her biological magnetic field being stronger than that of ordinary people.
