Global Exploration: Starting from Decrypting Chernobyl

4: Rice, the flexible fat man!“Alright, my friend!”

“Five minutes, just five minutes, and I’ll be there. Don’t run around at the airport, wait for me!”

“Oh, my god of wealth…”

“Beep beep beep…”

“…”

The busy tone of a disconnected call came from the phone.

Wu Tian’s mouth twitched.

If this person hadn’t been introduced by the old man, with his money-grubbing personality, Wu Tian would have already passed him from his entourage list. He was completely unreliable!

…At this time, Pripyat had entered its autumn and winter season, and because of the radiation, the town had been uninhabited for years, with no vegetation!

So the temperature was terrifyingly low!

Even in the daytime, the average temperature had already dropped to freezing point!

Wu Tian, wrapped in a thick cotton coat, waited in the airport lobby for the tour guide he had spoken to on the phone.

“…”

“See that?”

“The Host doesn’t understand Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant at all and even called a tour guide. This proves my conjecture: the Host is just touching the surface and won’t go in!”

“Just trying to grab attention!”

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

“What the person upstairs said makes sense!”

“Another deluded internet celebrity…”

As the person named ’First Person to Expose Fake Livestreams’ finished speaking, the number of people in Wu Tian’s livestream plummeted by over 200,000 at a visible speed.

“…”

“Hehe…”

Wu Tian, bored, glanced at the bullet screen.

Then he smiled slightly and said to the livestream,

“Chernobyl has now become an international exclusion zone, but Ulan Country has designated it as a tourist attraction to develop tourism. But even so…”

“Without a tour guide, you can’t even get within ten kilometers of Nuclear Power Plant No. 4. What I need to do is enter the low-risk zone first.”

“Then gradually advance.”

“To reach the final Sarcophagus!”

Wu Tian smiled slightly.

“And, if possible, I will survive in the Sarcophagus for a week!”

“…”

As soon as Wu Tian finished speaking.

The bullet screen in the entire livestream instantly paused, and after a few short seconds, a torrent of bullet screens erupted!

“You’re bragging!”

“Chernobyl is so dangerous, you’re not allowed within ten li, and you can still enter the Sarcophagus?”

“I just asked my uncle at the research institute, and he said the nuclear radiation in Chernobyl is very high. Let alone entering the Sarcophagus, even approaching Reactor No. 4 has a high chance of death!”

“Your uncle is awesome!”

…“If the Host dares to go, I’ll livestream myself eating sh*t!”

“You all sound so excited, but what is the Sarcophagus…?”

He glanced at the bullet screen.

Wu Tian selectively filtered out the sarcastic remarks and answered the last question.

“The Sarcophagus is a protective measure used to seal the entire Reactor No. 4, to prevent the reactor from collapsing or exploding again one day, and radioactive dust from once again rushing into the sky, recreating the tragedy of that year!”

“…”

“So that’s how it is!”

“Host, keep talking! What other information do you have? I want to hear it so I can brag!”

“Yeah, keep talking!”

Wu Tian smiled slightly, just as he was about to explain further.

At the entrance of the airport waiting hall, a person with a very distinct characteristic suddenly rushed in.

The reason this person’s characteristic was so distinct was because… he was incredibly fat.

Not only that… as he rushed into the waiting hall, he also loudly shouted to the crowd.

“Where’s my boss?”

“Wu!”

“Dear Wu, where are you, my most respected boss, your exclusive tour guide is here!”

“Please squeak!”

“…”

“Squeak…”

Wu Tian awkwardly twitched the corner of his mouth and softly squeaked in the direction of the fat man!

At this moment… the livestream’s camera also turned with Wu Tian’s gaze, looking at the fat man who was rushing towards Wu Tian.

“Holy cow!”

“This person must weigh over two hundred catties!”

“I think he’s three hundred catties!”

“Is this person really a tour guide?”

“Do Ulan Country tour guides not need to move? How in the world can he get so fat?”

“What the person upstairs said is very insightful…”

“Generally speaking, Ulan Country has many beautiful women, and tour guides really don’t need to move, but this person, emmmm…”

“…”

“Oh?”

“Here you are?”

The fat man immediately trotted all the way, rushing towards Wu Tian.

At the same time, in Wu Tian’s mind, Narrator-kun’s voice rang out.

【Chernobyl tourism project senior tour guide, proficient in eight languages, international Sanda, general firearms, professional level in wilderness survival. Taking him along will bring unexpected small surprises!】

【He’s a flexible fat man!】

Hiss… Wu Tian gasped.

A body weighing over two hundred catties, yet he’s proficient in Sanda?

Overpowering with sheer weight?

“…”

As Narrator-kun’s voice faded, the fat man arrived beside Wu Tian and chuckled.

“Boss!”

“Mm.”

“What do I call you?”

“My name is Rice!”

“Nice?”

Wu Tian was stunned?

“Not nice, it’s Rice!”

The fat man smiled slightly, looking at Wu Tian eagerly as he explained.

“Forget it, it’s all the same!”

Wu Tian waved his hand.

“Do you know why I called you?”

“I know!”

The fat man finally put away the smile on his face and spoke seriously to Wu Tian.

“Boss, you are a famous research doctor from Dragon Country. This trip is to explore Chernobyl and take in the scenery!”

“Hehe…”

Wu Tian smiled and shook his head.

“No, my friend.”

“It’s not just about sightseeing. I want to thoroughly investigate Chernobyl, ideally getting close to Reactor No. 4, and even entering the Sarcophagus.”

“Do you have a way?”

“…”

“What?!”

As soon as Wu Tian finished speaking, Rice, who was beside him, shouted in shock.

“Boss, you must be crazy!”

“The radiation levels around Chernobyl Reactor No. 4 are still astonishing. Even the surface of the Sarcophagus still has radiation as high as 750 roentgens. If we get close, in just six short hours, we will all die there!”

“Damn it!”

“Are you going to your death?”

“My boss?”

“I know all of this, of course!”

Wu Tian shook his head and interjected.

“Exploration and scientific research inherently require going to the most dangerous places. Only then can we obtain the data we want. If I don’t go deep into Reactor No. 4, wouldn’t my coming here just be for a picnic?”

“What’s the point?”

“…”

Rice fell silent.

After a long while.

The fat man looked at Wu Tian with a slightly respectful expression.

“The researchers from Dragon Country are truly men!”

“Give me one day!”

The fat man held up one finger.

“I’ll take care of the equipment needed and the entry permits, but whether you can survive depends on yourself. I…”

“Can at most take you to the side of the Sarcophagus!”
