Chapter 1626
Chapter 1635 Light in the Dark Night
I really mean Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
Huigang and the senior officials at the headquarters mentioned that there is a high possibility that there are other giant creatures on this island. An emergency communication was sent from the observation post outside, reporting that a group of giant bats were approaching the ocean-going ship.
This is really a good spirit that does not work but a bad spirit. Whatever you say will happen.
Now, you don't have to worry about convincing these officials anymore, because the evidence has flown over by itself. They are absolutely powerful in persuasion and are much more effective than empty words on your own.
Jia Jianhui immediately said: "Director, we found giant bats approaching the ship."
At the same time, the images captured by the infrared detectors were simultaneously uploaded to the central server for TPC headquarters to adjust. Take a look.
Director Sawai nodded immediately and said: "You go and deal with it first."
"Yes!"
Hui Jian nodded, without having time to say anything to the others, he immediately turned around and rushed out. When he went out, he patted the button at the door, and the bulletproof glass opened with a swish, revealing a large laser gun placed on the shelf. , was caught in Hui Jian's hand, and then ran towards the deck in large strides.
In the holographic communication that had not yet been hung up, Director Sawai frowned and said, "It seems that our estimate of this island is a bit too optimistic."
This I thought that the greatest darkness, Gatanjie, had been destroyed. , Luluye has become an ownerless gold mountain. What TPC has to do is to find where the gold mine is and then dig out the 'gold'. Therefore, going up to investigate is a sure thing. It just depends on the length of time. Find hidden treasures.
It was originally very smooth. The survey and detection of Luluye have been carried out for more than a year. The most common causes of injuries are sprained feet and diarrhea due to not adapting to the soil and water.
I never expected that under this island, which stretches from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, there is not only an extremely huge ultra-ancient city, but also a group of huge insects living there, and now even more A swarm of giant bats emerged.
This golden mountain suddenly became poisonous and quite troublesome.
"Yes," Staff Officer Minamihara, who is Director Sawai's first subordinate, responded immediately and said, "No one expected that after so long, there are still living things alive. It's incredible."
Several staff members nodded in agreement, this is not a year, two years, ten years or eight years, but a period of thirty million years.
You must know that the history of human evolution is only a few million years. Thirty million years is enough time for human beings to evolve seven or eight times.
And for such a long time, Luluye has been under the sea water, in a completely sealed state, and there are still living things surviving to this day. Is it possible that it is because the closed space has no contact with the outside world, so it has naturally Only by forming a world can the creatures inside survive?
"There are also big problems in that underground city," a staff officer said solemnly: "These giant creatures have probably been there all along. I really don't know how they are still alive today."
Another staff officer followed. He said: “There are also those buildings that are still well preserved after such a long time. It’s really unimaginable. ”
Among the most commonly used building materials currently used by humans, the strongest is reinforced concrete, but even a house built with the highest grade reinforced concrete can only support a few hundred years at most. It's just a thousand-year project. It's weathered by wind, rain, and sun. It won't take more than ten thousand years and it will be eroded without a trace.
Although the ultra-ancient buildings photographed by the advance team were severely damaged and dilapidated, without exception, they still maintained roughly their original appearance.
This means that the materials used to construct these buildings have withstood the passage of time and the ravages of time.
Even though there is space sealing involved, it is still enough to make people feel incredible.
Even if there are not those giant stone statues, these buildings that are not afraid of time are of great research value. Once the research is done, then human materials science may usher in leapfrog progress. Even if it can only be used to build a house, as long as it is economical, it is still a great improvement.
After all, the house is related to everyone. It is one of the four major items of clothing, food, housing and transportation. Not only is it necessary to live, it is inseparable even if you die.
Except for the application value of new building materials on the earth, if the various space stations in the new field plan currently implemented by TPC and deployed on major planets and satellite bases can be replaced with more durable and wear-resistant ones, Materials and maintenance costs saved are also astronomical.
Not to mention a complete super-ancient city, the research value in it is overwhelming.
That's not a pile of stone buildings, but countless doctorates and theses.
But such a huge pile of treasures has a guardian beast.
This is uncomfortable.
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing their parents, and blocking someone's progress is even more unforgivable.
Staff Nagyun immediately stood up and said: "Director, immediately ask the surrounding branches to send special teams to support. These giant bats must be eliminated, and then ground troops will be dispatched with heavy equipment to destroy those giant insects. .”
His words immediately received several echoes of support.
“Yes, these creatures don’t know any viruses or bacteria yet. If they spread, it would be terrible.”
“That’s right, even if there are no viruses or bacteria , these creatures are so large in size, and they are likely to be carnivores. Once they are allowed to settle in other places and start to multiply, it will be very harmful to the earth's ecology. It was a devastating blow."
"."
All the staff members were talking about it, especially those who had dabbled in and studied biology. Let’s teach a lesson about the huge harm of biological invasion, so as to establish a professional image, not only to be the person in charge of this matter, but also to have a share of the pie in this matter.
Director Sawai kept listening but said nothing until more and more people spoke, making the good meeting a mess. Then he coughed lightly and the noise disappeared instantly and became quiet. "Let the biology department make an assessment on these matters and issue a report. The most important thing now is the safety of the Luluye investigation team," Director Sawai turned to Director Ji Gang and asked, "Are they carrying heavy weapons?" ?”
Director Ji Gang shook his head and said: “This is a scientific investigation, I only brought some for self-defense. Small weapons and explosive high-energy bombs."
Director Sawai pursed his lips and said: "Let the victory team be dispatched, and all branches should be prepared, just in case."
"Director, do you think there is a bigger problem there?" Director Ji Gang stopped fanning the small fan in his hand and looked at Director Sawai with a serious face.
"Alas!" Director Sawai sighed deeply, stared at the overwhelming giant bats flying out of the black island in the picture, and said, "I hope it won't develop in the worst direction. "
Director Ji Gang was silent. Although he did not say it clearly, Director Sawai was very worried whether these giant creatures were a prelude. After all, insects and bats are so big, what about other creatures?
Whether it is a food chain or a food web, there are creatures that stand at the top. Creatures that can regard these giant bats and giant insects as ants must be so huge.
Originally TPC was very curious, how did monsters like Golzan and Melba survive in the super ancient times?
If we eat humans, the amount of meat we have is not enough to fill our stomachs if we just hunt and do nothing all day long. We can’t have nuclear fusion in our bodies and just eat stones. That's enough.
The giant bats and giant insects emerging from the ground now seem to tell modern people the answer, that is, in the super-ancient period, the sizes of creatures were very large, or some creatures were extremely large.
It is precisely with such huge ants that we have the conditions to give birth to even larger monsters such as Golzan and Melba, which are tens of meters tall.
This is what Director Sawai is worried about. In tens of millions of years, even if these giant insects have a lifespan as long as that of a turtle, it will have been tens of thousands of generations. Although Luluye is big, But after all, it is just an island. After so long, and after so many generations, the number will continue to increase.
According to normal development, the number of these giant creatures will increase day by day, until the closed Luluye will not have enough food and living space, resulting in large-scale death, and then the genocide, and also Or the quantity is greatly reduced.
But these giant insects are still alive and well, which means that there are probably natural enemies behind them, and behind the natural enemies there will be natural enemies, up to the level of the highest predator, that is.
< br>
Monster!
Although there is no evidence, they have to be prepared to avoid the worst if a monster really exists.
"It's serious." Director Ji Gang whispered, with slightly cloudy eyes, he looked gloomily at the screen in front of him, which was playing the picture broadcast back through the satellite. The TPC research ship was at the moment. It was chaos, with people running in terror and the injured wailing everywhere.
Originally, the ocean-going ship was carrying materials and equipment on the deck in an orderly manner, sorting, sorting, and storing various things into categories. There were also many crew members resting, chatting, and There is a view.
But suddenly, a black 'bat' rushed out of the dark night, entered the range of the searchlight, and jumped down at a very fast speed, before the attacked person had time to react. , he grabbed a technician with his claws as huge as an anchor, and his sharp toes easily pierced his flesh, and then hooked his collarbone.
The severe pain caused him to let out a shrill scream, which shocked everyone instantly. Before anyone around him could react, the 'giant bat' flapped its wings, bringing powerful airflow, and then carried a heavy blow. The man weighing more than 100 kilograms flew into the sky, leaving behind only a series of screams and a waterfall of blood.
“Hurry up.”
A soldier on guard shouted and aimed his gun, but as soon as the muzzle was pointed in that direction, before he could even aim at the bat, he saw a horrified In one scene, several black figures swooped down, and the searchlight under the barrel of the gun revealed their appearance, which was exactly the same as the 'giant bat' just now.
Not just from this direction, 'giant bats' are coming from all directions, swooping down at extremely fast speeds, like eagles hunting prey, grabbing a person with their sharp claws and flying away immediately Up to the sky.
No matter how hard the people caught by them struggled and screamed, they could not break free.
Human beings, who have always prided themselves on being the master of all things, have become prey at this moment.
Everyone panicked and no longer cared about the order. They all fled in panic and rushed into the cabin to avoid the predator that fell from the sky. The soldiers with weapons quickly opened fire without caring. Without taking aim, he held on to the trigger and fired wildly, trying to establish a fire net to stop the attack of these 'giant bats'.
But there are too few people with guns, and the accuracy of shooting in a hurry is not high. In addition, it is already dark at the moment, and the 'giant bat' is black, almost blending into the night. Without appearing in the searchlight, it is difficult to detect at all. The combination of various unfavorable factors has greatly reduced the hit rate. Ten shots cannot hit even one shot. It is impossible to stop the attack of this densely packed 'giant bat'.
One after another people were taken away by the 'giant bats'. The painful wails and desperate screams brought great psychological pressure to the remaining people. Even some soldiers could not withstand it. No longer caring about protecting others, he couldn't help but run towards the cabin.
It’s not that they are too timid, but beams of searchlights swept across, and there were black and dense ‘giant bats’ everywhere. It made people feel that the sky was crowded with these terrifying ‘giant bats’, even if they were Even though he is well trained, he cannot withstand this unwinnable battle.
One person runs, leading two people to run;
Two people run, leading others around to follow;
Then everyone starts running, rushing to the cabin, just to beg for help. A glimmer of hope.
As long as you enter there, you will be safe and you will not be afraid of these bats.
But how can a person walking on land compare with the speed of a bird flying in the air?
Often after just two steps, the 'giant bat' would already dive a hundred meters away. As fast as lightning, it would rush behind a person in an instant, pointing its sharp claws directly at his back.
But just as the claws were about to pierce through, a bright laser hit the belly of the 'giant bat' head-on. It exploded instantly and turned into a raging flame, almost Devour the giant bat.
The blazing giant bat screamed, the power of the explosion knocked it out of the air, rolled and fell, and hit a container, denting the steel plate of the container.
But even after being severely injured, the giant bat was still alive, struggling on the ground, trying to flap its wings to fly again, but after just two flaps, Hui Jianma, holding a large laser gun, ran over. A shot to the giant bat's head.
This time, the head of the giant bat was blown to pieces, and it died immediately. Only the body was left twitching twice under the influence of the residual electrical signals of the nerves, and then stopped moving.
