Chapter 214 Ocean Planet
Inside the huge black building, everyone is busy at this time.
"Every preparation has been made and can start at any time."
The person in charge of the project here walked up to Chen Lin and noticed that he was wearing a full set of flight power equipment at this time. Armor.
Chen Lin smiled and said: "I won't wear your diving suits or protective suits. My Fuyao flying power armor has these functions. The key is that if the situation is not right, I can still fly and run. Road..."
The person in charge suddenly burst into laughter. He also noticed that the set of flying power armor worn by Chen Lin was different from the one worn by the assault team. Chen Lin's suit looked like a higher version.
The Fuyao powered armor temporarily ended the tragic experience of eating dust in the warehouse, and was worn by Chen Lin to open the portal to the water world.
All facilities entered an emergency state, and all personnel around the portal evacuated to the outer military base. In the end, only an assault team was left to follow Chen Lin.
They already knew what the worst-case scenario would be before they came, but standing in front of the huge stone door, everyone was still a little nervous.
After all, I don’t know what will happen after this door is opened...
It could be seen that this assault team was very nervous. Chen Lin smiled and comforted: "Maybe after opening the door, it will be the same as the situation at the outpost, and nothing will happen."
" Don’t be so nervous, those mentioned before are the worst-case scenarios, and we may not encounter them.”
The communicator in the power armor began to transmit the results of routine inspections, and the huge building was divided into parts. The third floor was closed from the outermost to the innermost where Chen Lin and others were.
“It’s time to start, Mr. Chen!”
Chen Lin heard the voice in the communicator and immediately nodded, signaling everyone in the assault team to retreat while he controlled the flight The armor jumped up directly.
His Fuyao has been specially modified, and the exoskeleton parts of both hands can be removed, just to facilitate Chen Lin's work.
The armor on his left hand was removed, and Chen Lin touched the stone door in front of him without any hesitation.
At this time, the portal of the outpost has also been temporarily controlled, in order to prevent the door to the north from opening, which would cause the main portal of the outpost to close.
First contact!
The huge Shimen didn't react at all after Chen Lin's left hand touched it. Nothing happened for several seconds... This made the senior researchers who were watching the Shimen feel a little dazed.
"Failed?"
"Is it possible that this teleportation stone gate cannot be opened with Mr. Chen's hands?"
"Wouldn't it mean that all our preparations were wasted...such a huge The project was completed day and night, but at the end of the day, it suddenly said it couldn't be opened. Isn't this a joke? "
"Wait a minute, please stop complaining!"
A senior researcher quickly stopped everyone, and then everyone saw a green light begin to glow on the display screen in front of them!
The huge teleportation stone door opened from above and downwards. At first, there was no response at all when Chen Lin touched it, simply because it hadn't opened to this side yet!
After noticing this, Chen Lin immediately stepped back a few meters and confirmed that no seawater or alien creatures came out of it. Then he breathed out: "How is the portal at the outpost now?"
"The gate of the outpost is normal! It seems that the two gates are separate structures and have no influence on each other at all!"
"Don't rush to conclusions yet, let's get started. ”
“Understood! ”
The northern base immediately dispatched a scientific research team, carrying a large amount of scientific and technological equipment and entering here from the outer area.
The first to enter the opposite world will be military unmanned equipment. These equipment are equipped with cross-border communication stones and rely on synchronous fluctuations to transmit information. Chen Lin and the assault team received the order and hurriedly evacuated. Out of the range of the teleportation stone gate.
While disassembling the Fuyao powered armor, Chen Lin said: "It was all in vain. I forgot that today was just to open the door. I thought I was going to let this team and I directly Fighting in."
The person in charge shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Chen was joking. There were really no conditions at the beginning. The unmanned equipment was disconnected after entering. In the end, we had no choice but to use personnel. How to enter. ”
“Now that we have the equipment, it is naturally safer to let the equipment enter to explore the path first.”
"With your current status, no one can take responsibility for an accident."
Chen Lin also shook his head helplessly, changed his clothes and went directly into the observation room.
The large room has many seats. There are about fifty or sixty people here, and the seats are still more than enough. Chen Lin casually found a place to sit down and noticed that the scientific research team over at Shimen had completed the equipment. debugging.
The control room quickly issued an order to release the unmanned equipment. The team members immediately pressed the start button, and the automatic tracks immediately rose, and one after another they dropped the unmanned equipment into the green field of the portal. !
All the unmanned equipment disappeared directly after contacting the green light curtain. A dozen unmanned reconnaissance vehicles and a small formation of unmanned aerial vehicles were thrown in!
The monitoring room immediately started trying to debug the equipment. The communication stone technology is now very mature. As long as the connection is successful, images from another world can be received!
"The docking of Detection No. 1 failed and is being re-debugged..."
"The docking of Detection No. 2 failed and is being re-debugged..."
……
< br>“Detection No. 12 is connected successfully, and the picture has been connected to the main screen!”
As a voice sounded, a clear picture immediately popped up on the big screen in front of the observation room.
The picture returned by the unmanned exploration vehicle No. 12 is directly in the ocean, and it is slowly descending at this time.
"Start the deep-sea mode of Detection No. 12."
The descent in the picture stopped immediately, and the operator's voice was clearly transmitted here: "The missing part of the picture just now should be Before they enter the ocean, I now control the Exploration Vehicle No. 12 to rise to the sea surface!"
The picture from the Detection Vehicle No. 12 quickly changed to floating. After a brief rise, the brightness in the picture suddenly increased.
"Sun? This thing seems to be similar to us..."
"Wait, two suns!?"
"It's not two suns, it's the halo phenomenon reflected on the surface of sea water. Control it Operator, adjust the direction of the lens on No. 12!”
With the instruction from the observation room, the two suns that appeared in the lens quickly turned into one, and everyone present finally saw the sea. on the screen.
There is no shadow of any land or island at all. The blue water and the clouds in the distance make it look like an ocean planet!
At this time, the lens of the rover was deflected, and everyone present exclaimed.
They saw the huge stone gate floating on the sea out of thin air!
The huge stone gate dozens of meters high appeared on the sea surface naturally without any external force. This scene was enough to shock everyone.
“Four more rover vehicles are connected, and the two drones have also restored contact!”
“Very good, all the screen content will be projected onto the big screen!” Then Following the instructions in the command room, most of the various detection devices sent to the other world were connected one after another, and more information from the opposite world was quickly sent back to the outpost and the base here at the portal.
The drone quickly started cruising in the air, and the lens was filled with endless sea water. The modified unmanned exploration vehicle also drove very far along the sea surface, but still did not find any land. traces.
After searching for more than half an hour, everyone finally chose to give up. The battery life of the drone was not enough to support them to explore further distances.
“The entire continent is most likely made up of ocean. We have flown the drone for more than 400 kilometers in the past half hour and found no sign of any land...”
“ Mr. Chen’s guess is right!”
"Perhaps we appeared in a special location, just on a certain ocean."
"The message was passed to the outpost, and my suggestion is to send a submarine immediately."
"Temporary platform It also needs to be built, and the energy here may need to rely heavily on solar energy..."
"Dive in deep sea mode, I want to see the scene under the sea surface!"
Restore link! The unmanned exploration No. 4, No. 7, No. 8 and No. 11 all executed the dive order, and the camera quickly switched to the scene under the sea.
The camera picture of the unmanned detection equipment is not clear, but maybe because the area here is not very deep, it can still be seen very clearly under the sunlight.
"It's a regular seabed scene...are these the weeds inside? That one looks like limestone, is this coral?"
"There are marine life, those fish are similar to Some kind of tropical fish on our planet...what is that?"
"So ugly!"
A huge sea lion-like creature was displayed on the screen, but it had an extra tail. A giant "luminous cyst", this part makes the creature move slowly, and its movement in the water appears weird and distorted.
Chen Lin also straightened up. He stared at the strange creature that appeared in the picture, his eyes filled with unstoppable curiosity.
Someone at the scene immediately signaled Unmanned Detection Vehicle No. 4 to briefly test the creature in front of them. Soon, Probe Vehicle No. 4 launched two small electric shock torpedoes towards the creature.
The electric shock torpedo, which is only about the size of a little finger, is a type of weapon specially designed for testing. The electric shock torpedo hit the slow-moving giant fish very quickly, and then two blasts erupted. Shining light.
The creature in the distance seemed to be in pain, and let out a low cry. Immediately, the luminous cyst on its tail exploded like a goddess scattering flowers!
The cyst ruptured directly in the water, and the gray-brown liquid directly entered the water, polluting a large area of water.
The unmanned detection vehicle is naturally not affected by the liquid, and can even quickly determine the degree of pollution of the seawater in these areas based on the collected seawater!
“Damn, this thing is a poison gas bomb!”
“Poison gas fish!?” Nothing can be seen clearly in the entire area, and we don’t know when it will be cleared out!”
“Give up here first and let the exploration vehicle collect and detect the rest first.”
At this time, Chen Lin stood up from the seat behind and interjected: "Let the equipment find a way to test the portal first."
"I want to find out whether the portal can be used from Enter here from the opposite side."
As soon as his words came out, everyone present immediately paid attention to it, and the operator quickly received an order to request a drone to conduct a return test.
The test on the world opposite the portal was quickly completed. The portal is similar to the outpost. It is also one-sided and can only be entered or exited.
After confirming the safety of the overall environment of the water world opposite, the outpost immediately decided to send a commando team to the opposite side in person.
After Chen Lin received this notice, he seemed a little surprised.
In his impression, he originally thought that the unmanned detection activities would continue for a long time before real people entered.
As a result, the unmanned detection device had only been working for half a day, and the outpost had already decided to send people in.
This is too hasty!
He personally called the person in charge of the project at the outpost and said directly that he should be cautious.
"Since unmanned devices can now be used for detection, my opinion is that we don't need real people to enter the opposite side first, and use unmanned equipment to clarify the information on the opposite side first."
"What worries does Mr. Chen have? ?”
“Too many worries! There is an ocean world opposite. There are many strange things written in the special pattern pictures on the stone gate, including huge ocean monsters and mutated sea creatures... The ocean on the opposite side is very dangerous for us!"
Chen Lin frowned and said: "We haven't done much exploration of the planet under our feet, are we about to start a second battlefield? ?”
“The plan of the outpost is to send an assault team into it. It is best to establish a temporary platform under the portal... After all, our various unmanned devices need a suitable platform. Place to repair and recharge.”
The person in charge patiently explained the reason to Chen Lin, "You just need to wait until the platform is established, and then enter it and bring out our people."
"Is this the decision of the outpost or the association? Decision?”
“This is a joint decision made by the association and Hongshan Base”
Chen Lin was silent for several seconds and finally chose to compromise.
"In this case, I won't say anything."
Chen Lin sighed slightly, "Those pictures on the stone gate are not like some kind of display, but a warning... I hope that the soldiers who enter it must be equipped with a full set of protective measures and cannot eat food from the opposite ocean." No fish can directly use purified water... I will report these directly to the association."
The person in charge did not expect that Chen Lin would show such an attitude, and immediately said seriously that he would do the same. After reminding the safety of the project personnel, he hung up the phone.
Chen Lin was sitting on the sofa, always feeling a little uneasy.
The words carved on the huge stone door are mostly a warning!
Warn him that there is some kind of great terror in the water world behind the stone gate, not just marine life, but also a deadly element that can destroy the entire planet...
Chen Lin thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. At this time, Xiao Wu opened the tent curtain and came in with hot tea. The cool breeze made Chen Lin sneeze violently.
A fatal thought suddenly flashed through his mind - those warnings on the stone gate were probably talking about some kind of marine virus! ?
