Chapter 77 Mount Everest

Snowy mountains, plateaus, thin air.

Nami knew that the damage to her spacesuit meant that there was not much time left for her.

According to the location displayed by the metal detector, it should be not far ahead.

But every time she took a step, Nami had to rest for ten seconds, followed by a violent cough, and her heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to explode at any time.

Please don't do this, she said in her heart, please don't do this, give me a little more time to explode with the earth.

On the other side, Arthur slightly adapted to the earth's environment and began to search for Nami's location.

"No news about her yet?" Lebo asked.

"No, get ready to go. Galapagos Islands 2 has been repaired. Go as far as you can and tell mom that I love him."

Lebo: "It's so tacky. I really don't like it. Tell Lady Catherine yourself. She will be proud of you."

"Mother..." Arthur's voice trembled.

Catherine: "Find Nami and take her away from the earth."

"If I have the chance, I will definitely do it. I also want to find another person. Maybe she is still in the landing module, waiting for rescue by United Airlines."

"Alone?" Catherine frowned.

"Miranda's descendant, I heard her voice, she knew I was going to Earth..."

"Why are you saying these incoherent words, Arthur? Aunt Miranda's spirit may not be..."

"Mother also thinks that the voices Aunt Miranda heard were her hallucinations?"

Catherine didn't know how to persuade Arthur, so she turned to Aunt Miranda, who closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said: "Arthur, I don't think it was an illusion, but I don't have a backup of the data at that time.

They were all lost in the avalanche of Kilimanjaro."

"I know, it's not important. Miranda has maintained communication with the Nebula space station since she came to Earth. I have not completely repaired the data collector, but I have read a lot of messages, including nine bombs hidden in it.

The location and the location of the final detonation device. This information all comes from Miranda's log. I made a backup copy with me. At the end of this data, there is a girl's voice. Aunt Miranda can listen to see if it is her.

Through communication positioning, maybe I can find the landing module, I want to try it."

"Arthur, you should go find Nami, take her on the spaceship, and then leave the earth as much as possible. Time is limited and do the most important things." Catherine advised.

"Wait a minute, mom, I'll contact you later."

What suddenly made Arthur's heart beat faster was a reflection in the mountains in the distance.

It was very dark, but it was very unusual for Arthur. It was full of withered grass and burnt ground, and many things reflected this dark light.

Because the sun cannot absorb the large particles of dust in the air, all reflections are eerie and dark.

No one would say that this earth is beautiful, it looks a little bad.

Just now, there was another small sandstorm, which stirred up dust all over the ground, flew into the air, and slowly fell again, just like peppering the space station.

After the wind passed, a metallic flash appeared next to a mountain, swaying back and forth.

Arthur guessed it might be a damaged solar panel.

If the Baikal wanted to maintain communication with the Nebula space station, it had to charge the landing module. These charging functions were obviously still in operation after Miranda's death.

Although the sun is weak and charging is slow, what does it matter?

Arthur walked forward as fast as he could, trying to run, but his steps didn't follow his instructions.

It's too heavy. Wearing a spacesuit and walking on flat ground at an altitude of three thousand meters is so tiring. Wouldn't climbing up be about the same as a snail's pace?

He couldn't care less. Arthur just wanted to get to this shining point quickly, but the distance was not as close as he imagined...

While waiting for Arthur's reply, Lebo received another voice from Earth.

The voice was extremely noisy. Lebo waited for dozens of seconds before normal words appeared in the voice, "This is Galapagos Islands No. 1, Arthur, are you there?"

Lebo: "This is the Nebula Space Station, you are..."

"Is it Nami?" Catherine asked anxiously.

"Yes..." After Nami finished speaking, she coughed violently again.

"Nami, are you sick?" Lebo asked, "Arthur has arrived on Earth, right on Mount Everest. I will help you contact him now."

"Arthur, Arthur!" Lebo shouted, "It's Nami."

Arthur stopped and said, "Nami?"

"Listen to me, I don't care how you got to Earth, we are all in trouble now."

Arthur: "Since leaving Mir, there has been no shortage of trouble. You sound very weak. I will go find you right now."

"Okay, whatever you want, but listen to me. Guess what I thought of? Do you remember Miranda's diary? She said she always wanted to take off her aviation suit and take off her mask because it smelled so bad.

..."

Cough...disturbing violent coughing sound.

"I probably have a mental disorder. I can't wait and want to take off this damn mask every moment. I want to grab a handful of snow and wipe the things on the mask clean. It's so dirty.

The red foam is really ugly...

And then, guess what? Guess what I did?”

Arthur: "No, no, no, never." Arthur ran up in panic, his heavy breathing accompanied by Nami's coughing from time to time.

At first, she would cough every time she spoke a dozen words. Later, Nami would cough after being unable to speak five or six words. The coughing time became longer and longer, and the speaking time became shorter and shorter."

Arthur ran faster and faster, forgetting the weight of his legs, as if he was born to be good at mountain climbing.

"Where is the Mir? There are doctors on the Mir. Is there any way to overcome the mental disorder? Don't think about it. Nami, focus on it and talk to me. Keep talking to me. I already know your location. I will immediately,

Right away, right away."

"Everything went smoothly, obviously very smoothly. Arthur, I can do everything by myself."

"Yes, you can do it alone. I'm here to pick you up from the earth. After the earth explodes, we can fly as far as we can, Sister Nami, Sister Nami."

"You really know how to say these romantic words.

It sounds like a story about a hero saving a beauty.

However, I really want to breathe the earth’s air. I heard it’s sweet. It’s almost dusk now..."
