Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
It was already November. The desert was not hot, but the temperature difference between day and night was very large. The temperature was acceptable during the day, but it was very cold at night, the kind that could freeze humans to death.
Tan Ron and the others tried their best to search for them during the day. At night, their field of vision was limited, and they were likely to encounter wild mammals in the desert, poisonous snakes, and insects. If they encountered them, Tan Rou and the others would be in trouble.
Tan Rou held a tablet in her hand. There should be no signal in the desert, but Tan Ron’s tablet could still be used in the desert.
It wasn’t the tablet that was special, but the device in Tan Rou’s backpack that was special. It was a mobile satellite signal receiver. When they were trapped on the island previously, she had wanted to make a mobile satellite signal receiver like this. This way, she wouldn’t have to worry about accidents when her phone suddenly lost signal if she got lost in the wilderness.
After the mobile satellite signal receiver was completed, Tan Rou only tested it briefly and did not put it into full use. If it wasn’t for Liang Lu and Tao Zheng’s accident, Tan Rou would have forgotten that she had come up with such a device.
“Is this the signal receiver you’re researching?” It was Zhuang Liu’s first time seeing this thing. Tan Rou had taken photos and videos of it for him when it was done, but they didn’t use it at that time, so neither of them cared.
“Yes.” Tan Rou stuffed the tablet into Zhuang Liu’s arms. “Help me monitor the movement of the sandstorm. I’ll operate the drone to take aerial photos.”
Now is the era of the internet. They didn’t have to walk every inch of the desert just to look for the others. They could find someone through the internet and satellites. Moreover, Liang Lu and the others were not alone. They were a group of people with a bunch of props. As long as they appeared in the desert, they would definitely leave traces.
Tan Rou only needed to judge the direction of the sandstorm based on the satellite images and use the drone to take aerial photos. She would definitely be able to find them.
Not only did Tan Rou bring a drone, but Lu Qing also brought one. However, Lu Qing’s drone was a ready made one while Tan Rou built hers on her own.
As a big shot in the field of science and technology, Tan Rou rarely bought ready-made products. She preferred to design them herself, then took them to his factory to produce, and finally assembled them.
Her drone’s endurance was very strong, and the shooting angle was very flexible. The important thing was that it could cope with more natural disasters, even if it encountered sandstorms.
In contrast, Lu Qing’s drone was not very effective. The drone flew out for less than half an hour, but because it encountered a strong wind, it was blown to the side and finally fell somewhere.
Lu Qing was not in the mood to look for it. He could only rely on Tan Rou’s drone now.
Tan Rou operated the drone to search the desert, not letting go of any place where there might be people. Looking at the screen for too long outdoors would hurt her eyes, so they took turns in order to rest their eyes.
They walked from day to night, but they did not find any traces of people in the desert. After the sandstorm, all traces would be covered by the sand. It would be a little difficult to find Liang Lu and the others.
It was dark, and the rescue team did not dare to move. They could still deal with the sandstorm during the day, but if they encountered a sandstorm at night, they would not even be able to identify the direction, let alone deal with it in advance.
Tan Rou also knew how dangerous the desert was, so she found a safer place to rest. Everyone gathered together to rest and waited until the next morning to set off.
The drone didn’t need to be charged, but the tablet needed to be charged. There was no electricity in the desert. If one wanted to get electricity, they could only use solar batteries to convert solar energy into electricity. When they went out this time, Tan Rou also brought her high-efficiency solar energy conversion panel to convert solar energy into electricity.
This device was carried by Tao Zhi. As it was relatively heavy, Tao Zhi only carried this one thing. The next day, another person would have to carry it. If only one person carried it, his body would not be able to take it.
No one asked if they could find Liang Lu and the others. Since Tan Rou and the others were already here, they had to do their best to find them. They had to bring them back safely if they were alive, and they had to find their bodies if they were dead.
