Following the colonel to the spaceship where the military headquarters was located, Lu Jinchao was led through several authority gates all the way to the place where the team gathered for preparation.

The sentinel members of the search team had already been organized, but a suitable guide was missing.

The sentries were hurrying to rest, when they heard the footsteps of the two staggered outside the door, they all looked over.

Lu Jin saw familiar faces among the crowd at a glance.

Lin Xiaoming was on the list.

"This is the guide in charge of your sensory safety and spiritual detection in the team."

The colonel introduced Lu Jinchao to the sentinel soldiers, "Hurry up and prepare, we will set off in two hours, and the detailed structure diagram of the military base will be sent to your terminal later."

Lu Jinchao automatically came to Lin Xiaoming's side, and heard the young man frowning and asking in a low voice: "Why are you here?"

"I may be the only suitable candidate here." Lu Jinchao wasn't too nervous, "But suddenly knowing that I can act with you, I feel a lot more at ease."

Lin Xiaoming had obviously taken a shower, his body was clean and his clothes were changed.

He stood up and said, "Come on, go take a shower, I don't know how long you'll stay down there, you have to adjust to the best condition first."

Lu Jinchao followed Lin Xiaoming to the back room, which should be the officer's residence with a separate bathroom.

He took off the dirty clothes on his body, and finally he was able to take a bath happily, and the original color could not be seen after pouring the water for the first time.

After washing himself from head to toe as quickly as possible, Lu Jinchao dried his body and poked his head out of the bathroom.

Lin Xiaoming was sitting by the bed waiting for him, with his back facing the direction of the bathroom, not looking at him.

Neatly folded disposable underwear and new tactical uniforms were placed beside the bed, Lu Jin came out quickly, took off the bath towel and put on his clothes.

Lin Xiaoming didn't look back the whole time, his back was straight, but he could still clearly hear the movement behind him.

Because of this, you can even see the appearance of Lu Jinchao scrubbing his body, turning off the water, wrapping himself in a towel and coming out.

Lu Jinchao lightly patted Lin Xiaoming on the shoulder, and the sentinel turned his head, slightly raised his eyes to look at the guide standing beside the bed.

Lu Jin's skin was reddened by the steam, and his wet hair was even more black. Water was still dripping from the tip of his hair, and it fell on his shoulders, soaking the fabric into small dots, and even his eyes seemed to be sucked. water.

"how do you feel?"

"It's much more comfortable." Lu Jinchao put the towel over his head and rubbed it vigorously. After half a minute, he successfully rubbed himself into a chicken coop. After washing it, he felt really comfortable.

An hour and a half before departure, Lin Xiaoming took Lu Jinchao to eat again. He knew that Lu Jinchao was in a bad mood, which seriously affected his appetite, but he had to replenish his energy.

No one knew what was going on in the star eclipse cavity, and he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to protect Lu Jinchao after he really went down.

Lu Jinchao insisted on eating the whole meal, resisting the nausea of ​​wanting to vomit, and went to clean his mouth.

Having reached the final stage of preparation, he familiarized himself with the situation of his sentry teammates one by one, and put on the equipment piece by piece.

The protective clothing is made of the most advanced materials and technology, and it is not as heavy as Lu Jinchao imagined. The oxygen production device he carries is also very light, and the oxygen supply can last for 72 hours underground.

Lu Jinchao put on the helmet at the end to confirm the airtightness of the protective suit. It felt strange to be covered all over his body. He adapted silently and tried to operate the terminal device on the right arm of the protective suit. A virtual screen was projected, showing the military base structure diagram, and some introductions about eclipse creatures.

Thousands of years have passed since the first discovery of star eclipse creatures, but humans still know little about this strange species. Star eclipse creatures come and go without a trace. Whenever they are found, they are always accompanied by the demise of the planet and born.

There are many studies on secretions. This special substance can change biological genes and make cells develop in a chaotic direction. Creatures polluted by star eclipse secretions will die from festering and terrifying mutations without exception.

Going deep into the eclipse cavity is a decision that requires courage.

Lu Jin took a deep breath, and for a moment he didn't know whether he had made the right decision. He was indeed the most suitable guide on the scene to participate in this task.

But in case something happened to him, what about the other things at hand?Will anyone else make up their minds to stop the Dawn Project?

Lu Jinchao knew that he had committed the problem of cranky thinking again, and he had already put on his equipment and stood here, so why should he think about other things?

Concentrate on completing the mission, and then come back alive with Xiao Ming.

He calmed down, looked up and saw Lin Xiaoming standing opposite him, stretched out his hands to press on his shoulders, and patted hard, his eyes behind the transparent mask were still extremely quiet.

The voice of the sentinel came from the earphone: "Don't be nervous."

Lu Jin nodded. Although the protective clothing is still light, it is quite difficult to do some interaction while wearing such a layer.

He released some mental power a little bit, Lin Xiaoming responded, and the weak mental power quickly merged with each other, walking on the edge of triggering the fusion heat.

Finally, the equipment carried was counted, and the search team code-named "Eclipse" set off and boarded the spacecraft headed for Yingzui Bay.

Lu Jinchao sat next to Lin Xiaoming, listening to him whisper some things through the private channel.

Yingzui Bay has collapsed for 40 hours, and the environment in the eclipse cavity is completely unknown. You must be extremely vigilant. If there is any abnormality, you must tell the people around you as soon as possible.

Lu Jinchao listened quietly, and the other sentries in the team were more or less nervous, but Lin Xiaoming couldn't tell at all that his various behaviors were not like a newcomer who had just joined the army.

The familiar sense of confusion reappeared. On the planet M342, Lin Xiaoming would give him this illusion almost every day-under the body of eighteen or nineteen years old, there seemed to be an older soul hidden.

The spaceship came over Eagle's Mouth Bay. The originally beautiful bay was now a huge hollow. Gasified eclipse secretions floated out from the dark abyss, showing a faint blue-purple color.

The spacecraft landed and gradually approached the collapsed area. The search team members stood up one after another, ready to enter the designated location.

Lu Jinchao checked the airtightness of the protective clothing for the last time, and unfastened the seat belt.

The spaceship hovered in the center of the pothole, the hatch of the transport cabin opened, and the team leader at the front made a gesture and jumped off first.

The sentries went down one after another, and Lu Jinchao was protected in the middle of the team. He stood at the cabin door, looking at the bottomless black abyss below, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

His body fell forward, and in the gap between two heartbeats, he jumped down.

After more than ten seconds of free fall, the power unit on the back activated by itself, slowing down the speed of the fall. The only remaining ground in the distance was getting closer and closer, and finally it was level with the line of sight, and soon jumped above the head.

It went dark in an instant.

They were digging into the huge cavity beneath their feet.

The lights above the head and around the waist were turned on, providing light that was insignificant compared to the darkness. The descent was still going on, and the heavy darkness around him brought expected uneasiness.

When the depth reached -2000 meters, the aircraft stopped falling, the team members were suspended in the air, and the team reunited.

There was a dead silence around, and no sound could be heard. The leader threw the lead weight down, and after a long time, all the sentries heard the extremely slight sound of falling.

"Go on down."

The darkness seemed to swallow up time, and Lu Jin followed the team all the way down in silence, finally at a certain moment, he saw the forming structure in the light.

That is the solid structure formed by the star eclipse secretions, and these solid secretions used to support the surface that was eaten up by the star eclipse creatures.

The city that was once fell and crumbled upon it.

As time goes by, the secretions will gradually gasify, and the ruins will continue to fall downwards until there is nothing left to fall.

According to the conclusion drawn by astronomers' urgent calculations, after losing considerable weight, the broken Tianyayi star will be captured by its sun's gravity, keep approaching, and finally melt in the deadly light and heat.

All will disappear.

They landed on the surface of the "city", and after collapsing and falling, the ruins have completely lost their former appearance.

The team leader called up the map and determined where they were now, which was the edge of the former harbor city.

"Let's go."

A group of people walked forward silently, surrounded by light blue gaseous substances, which were vaporized star eclipse secretions, filling the entire cavity and continuously emitting outwards.

The aircraft saved them from trudging through the ruins, and flew in the direction of the military base at a position ten meters above the "surface".

Lu Jin released his mental power to detect the situation below.

A dead silence.

In the gray and white spiritual realm, there is no point of light.

Yes, falling straight from such a high place, how could there be anyone alive?Just being exposed to such a high concentration of gaseous secretions is enough to cause a person to fester and die.

But Lu Jinchao didn't put away his spiritual power, even he himself didn't know the reason for doing so, maybe deep in his heart, he still held ridiculous hopes, hoping to find something?

The team walked all the way towards the direction of the military base. There were no buildings that looked like the original buildings, trees that had been broken into several knots, and... many dead bodies pretending to be miserable, buried under the ruined walls.

However, when they arrived at the designated location on the map, they found that there was only a piece of shapeless ruins below.

Earthquakes, collapses, and falls have changed the appearance of the "city" to a certain extent, and the military base must have been displaced from its original location.

expected result.

They took the marked location as the center of the circle and searched in all directions. The sensitive hearing of the sentinel would not let go of any movement in the dead star eclipse cavity, and their eyes could still see extremely far away in the dark.

A sentinel released his owl spirit body to assist in the search. Lu Jinchao released his spirit power as much as possible. He focused his mind, hoping to find some clues or traces.

Lu Jin was very close to the ground, and slowly moved towards the west side. Lin Xiaoming followed him. He clearly saw the corpses, many corpses. Before the collapse, this place should be a hospital.

As if wandering above hell.

Suddenly, an undetectable sound caught Lin Xiaoming's attention.

The voice was so soft that Lin Xiaoming even thought he had heard it wrong. He frowned and concentrated all his energy on his hearing, so his originally keen sense of hearing was magnified hundreds of times again.

This time, he heard the voice clearly.

The sound of bubbles popping out and bursting on the liquid surface.
