the only savior

Chapter 882 Strange Voice
On the moon, the exploration of the new Apollo team continues.

Another hour later.

"Old, boss...it's already 300 meters, should we continue?"

In the moon base, the fat engineer Odell asked hesitantly.

The few of them have been controlling the spider robot to explore for several hours. The depth of the dive has reached 300 meters, but they still haven't reached the bottom.

On the side, Tony's eyes were fixed on the screen, and he said firmly:

"Go on! We've come here, we can't just give up, at least we have to figure out what's going on here."

"But, but... Affected by the magnetic field in this area, our signal source has become weaker and weaker. It is estimated that we will completely lose all signals if we dive up to 30 meters..."

Tony gritted his teeth when he heard the words, and then said:
"30 meters? Then dive another 30 meters!"

"Okay, let me try..."

Engineering expert Odell wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then carefully manipulated the spider robot.

The place they are now is no longer as gentle as it was at the beginning, and the angle of the slope extending downward is getting bigger and bigger, almost reaching ninety degrees.

The robot can continue to move forward until now, and it is all due to the excellent performance of this thing that it did not fall directly.

On the side, the middle-aged geologist Abbott has been muttering something silently.

From his few words, it can be heard that he should be calculating the structure of this underground space.

But so far, the more and more calculations, the more frightened, still no results.

In the NASA Aerospace Command Center, there are also a large number of scholars and experts who are also analyzing the situation on the moon.

But like Abbott, they failed to draw any valid conclusions.

"Such a long and narrow passage extends downward for such a distance, and it is in the layered rock area. It is very likely that it was left by the crustal movement hundreds of millions of years ago..."

"But it's not right... If this is the case, then after so many years of meteorite impacts, the part that extends to the surface of the earth should not remain..."

"And this channel is too smooth, it doesn't look like it was caused by the splitting of the earth's crust... Wait! Stop it!!"

While Abbott was talking, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, startling Odell, who was concentrating on manipulating the robot.

"What's the matter? Professor Abbott, have you found anything?"

Tony looked at him puzzled.

The latter did not respond immediately, and just looked at the monitor in front of him and fell into deep thought.

There was no one there to urge him.

They knew that this companion should have discovered something, and they were all waiting for his response.

After a while, Abbott finally moved, and he slowly said:

"From the very beginning, I've been thinking that there is always something wrong with this passage...but because it's the moon, I didn't think too much about it..."

"But now, as the robot explores inside, the traces seem to be more and more obvious... So, now I have to start thinking in the most unbelievable direction ..."

What he said was a bit out of date, and everyone didn't understand what it meant.

Security officer Osto said suspiciously:

"Traces? What traces? Professor Abbott, what kind of charades are you playing? Can't you just tell us?"

On the side, captain Tony looked thoughtful.

Immediately, as if he had thought of something, the expression on his face suddenly changed.

"Hey, I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but I didn't find out until later when they increased. Look here..."

Abbott sighed, then pointed somewhere on the screen.

That was the bottom of the passage, and there were traces of thin strips drawn on the rock wall, which looked very inconspicuous.

"At first I thought it was just a natural texture on the rock, but after observation, the texture shouldn't be so chaotic..."

"At the same time, there are signs of slight overturning on the surrounding layered rock walls, but I have been unable to find a suitable reason to explain all this..."

"So, I boldly guess that these striped lines may not be lines, but traces of some biological activities..."

"If this is the case, then some of the previous suspicions can also be explained... This tunnel...is not produced by the movement of the earth's crust...it is...newly excavated..."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was taken aback, even Tony who was already mentally prepared was no exception.

"Newly dug!? What do you mean? We are on the moon now! What can dig a hole here!?"

The security officer Ottos said with widened eyes.

"Besides, that's anorthosite. Do you mean that creatures can dig such a hard rock by themselves and run hundreds of meters underground!?"

His words represented the aspirations of everyone, and everyone looked at Abbott without saying a word, waiting for the answer from the other party.

However, the geology professor did not refute, but smiled wryly and said:

"Otos, you're right. Actually, I don't want to believe it... After all, we are on the moon. If what I said before is true, I know exactly what it means... "

"But even if I don't want to believe it anymore, I still want to say my judgment, even if it sounds absurd...but...this is what I saw..."

Otos moved his mouth, but didn't ask any more questions.

Obviously, he was not completely unprepared for this answer.

Why did the Hurricane Bureau let him follow? Although it was not clearly stated, the meaning was actually quite obvious.

That is, there is indeed a certain security risk here.

Otherwise, it was just an ordinary mission to explore the moon, so why did he need such a fully armed professional combatant?
It's just that when this kind of situation is really possible, he still feels a little unbelievable.

Are there really aliens on the moon?

What kind of creature can live in such a harsh environment?
Based on human observation of the moon, why have they not been discovered after so many years?

"No...it's not necessarily a creature, maybe some machine or something? It might be Huaxia, or the digging machine left by the North Bear Kingdom, doing similar exploration operations in this area..."

Engineer Odell explained it from his professional point of view.

It's just that his statement is also not convincing, and no one at the scene agrees.

After all, this is the moon.

To be able to dig such an underground passage hundreds of meters long in this environment, they don't think that the other party can do this in terms of the current level of human technology.

Even if it's the Fanxing Group, which has been in the limelight recently, it won't work.

As we all know, Fanxing Group is only engaged in the field of electronics and biological genes. This kind of outer space industry is basically two different concepts.

On Water Blue Planet, in the command hall of the Aerospace Aviation Center.

There has also been a mess of porridge here.

The atmosphere fell into silence as early as the moment Abbott made his guess, and then a heated discussion suddenly broke out.

Some people think it's ridiculous, others think it's plausible.

The two sides had a heated discussion about this, and the command center was noisy for a while.

Although these people are all top scientists in related industries, they still lack a certain degree of discipline compared to the soldiers in charge of guarding outside.

When the new Apollo team encountered the current unexpected situation, they lost their positions immediately, and the scene seemed a little out of control.

"Director, what should we do? Should we stop those people first...?"

On the side of the big screen, an agent of the Hurricane Bureau was asking what Lu En meant.

The latter was frowning at the moment, staring at the monitor in front of him thoughtfully, thinking about what the professor said just now.

"You guys go, control the order of the scene, it won't look like it if you continue to quarrel like this."

Lu En waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to go to work, while he was still thinking about the conclusion that Abbott had just speculated.

If it was the past, he would definitely treat the other party as a lunatic without even thinking about it.

But it's different now. With the frequent appearance of alien species, who can guarantee that one or two will not appear on the moon?

Others don't know, but he, the director of the Hurricane Bureau, knows it very well.

In the underground shelter of the Button City branch base, his own research team has done related experiments.

The experimental results show that there are indeed many different species that can survive in that vacuum environment.

This also means that the geology professor's speculation is very likely to be correct!

Although so far, there is no clear evidence that monsters do exist on the moon.

But he didn't dare to gamble, the Longinus plan was very important, and he couldn't take any risk.

Thinking of this, Lu En's face couldn't help but change.

It's just that when he was about to open his mouth to give instructions on this matter, he didn't want to make a sudden change.

A harsh siren sounded suddenly from the communication channel, which startled everyone present.

An agent who was going to play the broadcast to silence everyone also froze in place.

He didn't do it before his fingers touched the play button.

"It's over there with the new Apollo spacecraft!"

Someone should have found the source of the alarm.

The area representing the new Apollo spacecraft on the display was already lit with a bright red distress light.

"What's going on!? Why did the new Apollo suddenly ask for help!? Oh! What are you still doing! Contact the spacecraft communication station!"

Professor Houston was sweating profusely as he yelled loudly at the researchers at the side.

Those people were obviously also very frightened, and they dialed several communication requests in a hurry, but they didn't get through.

They couldn't figure out why the spacecraft, which was still fine, suddenly lost contact.

Is it possible that aliens really exist on the moon?
In this regard, Tony and others in the moon base also expressed their ignorance.

They have established an independent communication platform here, and they didn't know what happened on the new Apollo at the first time.

……

Two hours ago, the new Apollo 1.

Deputy captain Maximilian led the two astronauts to successfully put down the spider robot and returned to the cabin of the spacecraft.

Compared with the middle-aged Maximilian, these two astronauts are relatively young guys.

They are geniuses in the field of spaceflight. They were fortunate enough to be selected for this plan, and even set foot on the land of the moon in the end.

The two were very excited and followed the deputy captain to go out to perform an excavation work.

Although it was very tiring to work back and forth, their hearts were sweet.

Such an opportunity, others can't get it even if they beg for it.

In the end, after several hours of digging, the exploration robot was finally able to be successfully thrown into the entrance of the cave, which also declared that their mission was completed.

"Captain, do you think our actions this time can really be included in textbooks in the future? The level of secrecy is so high this time, and I don't know when it will be lifted..."

locker room.

A tall man was asking Maximilian with longing eyes.

He quickly took off his space suit and put on the work clothes in the space station.

Facing the inquiries from the juniors, Maximilian did not answer them patiently.

He just glanced at his mouth and said in an impatient tone:
"Bevin, I advise you to give up such thoughts as soon as possible, let alone tell others. You are only here to carry out the task. Whether the US government will make this operation public in the end has nothing to do with you!"

"If you let the guy in Fowler know what you are thinking now, I can guarantee that you will be invited to drink tea!"

The intimidation from the senior obviously made the young man a little confused.

He hurriedly stated that he was just talking casually, and didn't really want to say it.

"Tch, guys with this kind of heart are also selected, I really don't know what those old men think."

Maximilian secretly despised the other party in his heart, and then planned to take the two of them back to the control room of the spaceship.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

At this moment, a dull knocking sound suddenly came from behind.

Maximilian stopped impatiently, and shouted behind him without looking back:

"Reddy! What the hell are you dawdling about!? Stop your ADHD hand! This is the new Apollo 1! It's the Moon! If you break something, everyone will It's over!"

After he finished speaking, a short man ran out from the locker room, looked at him with a confused expression, and said:

"It's not me, Captain Hershey. I was just about to come out, and I heard that voice too. It seemed to come from the locker room..."
