Me, Ultraman!Turn over to the country!

"You said it wasn't a cavity?" Joya was puzzled.

"I looked at the previous rock scan data and the image of the magnetic imager. The imager showed a light green color. I am afraid that what they saw was only the high part of the building that was not completely buried."

"The latest detection data shows that the space inside is distributed in flakes, more than 90% of which may be incomplete collapse, there may be room for air flow inside the building, and there must be a karst cave space underneath that leads to the underground river , so there is airflow diffusion.”

Li Siguang quickly explained:

"I suspect that the building has been completely buried."

"Then it's a big project."

Qiao Ya stopped and frowned: "How long can we dig out this thing with our current equipment?"

"This joke is not very funny." Li Siguang hid his foolish eyes behind the glasses.

Joya:? ? ?

"Before we chose this mountain as a prospecting site, mainly because it has a strong magnetic response, there are no too many faults, and the prospecting safety is extremely high. If you operate carefully, there is almost no risk of collapse."

"At the same time, the ore samples collected before are of extremely high grade, almost 70% of which are metal substances, almost all around and underground."

At this time, the last sunset light has entered the other side of the horizon.

Li Siguang pointed to this solitary hill that reflected the cold light under the artificial light and said lightly:

"Director Qiao, you are fighting with a 550-meter-thick pig iron lump."

The night of Mars is darker and colder than that of Earth. Everyone temporarily retreated to the Beast Ship and returned to the No. 1 forward base.

Through Li Siguang's explanation, Qiao Ya roughly understood the current situation——

Even on the earth, it would take more than a month to blow up the 550-meter-deep pig iron mountain by using engineering explosives regardless of the impact on the environment.

If you do this on Mars...

Leaving aside the question of how many bombs and equipment are needed, to be honest, even with so many manpower and material resources, Joya dare not do this.

——His view of the world has become the shape of Osei Tosho.

The ruins of a collapsed mine on Mars.

How likely is it to be a stone statue of Trigga?

How likely is it that there is a cute 'Meng Meng Da' hidden in it?

For example, the Martian demon that destroyed the Martian civilization.

Joya didn't dare to think.

Not only the hundreds of people at the No. 1 forward base, Joya is responsible for the lives of more than 2000 GDI Mars pioneers on this planet.

Furthermore, since there are man-made buildings on Mars, is the civilization that built this building extinct, or does it exist in the depths of this vast land?

Joya was a little horrified by his own thoughts, but this was not nonsense.

The prospecting points were temporarily sealed, and the trigger laser mines covered the gaps and prospecting passages.

If something gets through here, they'll be happy.

Another seventeen bases also received warnings from Joya.

From now on, all bases implement the strictest military control.

Qiao Ya seemed to be suffering from persecution paranoia, and asked all branch bases to immediately carry out self-examination to ensure that there were no errors.

At present, the distance of the ground fire has almost reached the farthest point - 4 million kilometers.

There is a sun in the middle.

Therefore, even if there is a warship as a signal intermediary, a communication still takes more than half an hour.

But as long as communication is still possible, Qiao Ya quickly received instructions from her superiors.

The document was thick and lengthy, and Joya summed it up in three words——

Figure it out!

Zhang Wei also took the time to send a four-character postscript:

【The side of the couch】

Fortunately, Hun Dan, who gave instructions from above, is not just lip service.

A warship full of GDI combatants will depart within 24 hours and will arrive at Mars in 72 hours at the latest.

In addition to the firepower enough to drown half a Sato Mezzard, the accompanying ship also has an earth-penetrating warhead.

Inside is a big guy who is more violent than the tsar.

The final killer belongs.

Joya has the right to make decisions, and there is only one restriction——

Make sure everyone is on board and destroy all man-made facilities on Mars before use.

Not even the slightest bit of information is allowed to be leaked!

As for the equipment used to 'figure it out', what is embarrassing is a group of individual energy weapons produced by the imperial logistics ship. It should not be a problem to melt into a passage several hundred meters long for humans to walk.

—— Qiao Ya suddenly missed Lei Xu very much.

After 67 hours, the sky was nearly dark and it was dusk again.

A new-looking olive-shaped spaceship broke through the thin atmosphere above the No. 1 forward base and slowly descended.

It took only an hour for the heavily armed GDI fighters to adapt to the planet's gravity and gather under the mine.

A report came from the communication channel:

"Minister Joe, all forward base personnel are boarding the ship."

"Roger that!"

Joya turned to look at Cam, succinctly:

"It's all on you."

The hawkish staff officer from the bald eagle had sharp eyes as always. Cam waved his hand without saying a word, and the soldiers who were already ready tilted their odd-shaped guns at about 15° to the ground.

In the next second, the fiery jet instantly melted the ground in front of it into a sheet of molten iron.

The purpose of this step is to cut the ground enough slope and channel, so that when the channel is actually opened, the molten iron can flow directly down the slope.

The coldness of the Martian night allows the molten iron to condense faster for work the next day.

The sky was bright and the chill was still there. Joya and Cam, who hadn't slept much all night, stepped off the warship together.

"How's the progress?" Joya asked.

"It can be opened within 2 hours at the fastest, theoretically." A strange voice replied in the channel.

In fact, Joya didn't wait for two hours.

He watched as two rotor drones churned air into the steaming molten cavern.

The drone applied with imperial materials has excellent heat resistance, and soon brought Joya an internal image and...a discovery that made people feel complicated.

——The completely collapsed ruins and a corpse embedded in the wall.

Discloseable information: not the ruins of Ultra~

87 Seal?

"Close contacts have been quarantined."

"Yeah!" Joya nodded in satisfaction.

"Is this the corpse?"

No matter how cautious Joya was, he wouldn't face a dead body that had almost turned into a fossil.

So he just put ten layers of protection on the corpse... that's all.

Well, not much at all.

X-ray scans showed that the body had almost completely become a part of the rock formation. The reason why it still had a shape was entirely due to the dexterity of the geologists, who knocked off the rock blocks that condensed on the surface of its body bit by bit.

—The geologist has been quarantined.

"unnecessary."

Because he was too old and unable to do anything, Li Siguang was lucky to escape, and persuaded him earnestly:

"The history of this corpse is determined to be more than 2 years. It is impossible for a monster to be resurrected from iron and limestone for such a long time, right?"

Qiao Ya turned a deaf ear to Li Siguang's persuasion, and he focused on this huge half-curled alien existence.

Obviously, this is a humanoid creature.

It has 6 limbs, two pairs of arms and a pair of legs used to walk upright. It is an obvious vertebrate.

But apart from the body shape, there is another point that is different from the semi-vegetative Koro people-Joya can see the swollen muscle shape.

Visually, this guy is extremely tall. If he stood upright, he would be at least [-] meters, maybe close to [-] meters.

The facial features are clear, with deep eye sockets and long and narrow nostrils like the reincarnation of Voldemort in the movie.

Picture: "Probably like this", location: "Images/1639189409-100272576-108076322.jpg"

On average, it is only 2 million kilometers away from the earth, a place within astronomical scale, Mars.

There are already living creatures?

The scientific community's speculation that Mars was once a habitable planet turned out to be true?

Joya's mind is in a mess, although the existence of the Koro people and the empire has already made him understand that human beings are not alone.

But on Mars, which is close at hand, there are traces of suspected intelligent civilization and the discovery of corpse fossils still surprised the old aerospace expert.

Are the Martians dead?

If it perishes, how will it perish?

If not dead, where are they now?

Joya suddenly felt a little fear of this planet that he had previously regarded as the hope of human civilization.

"Director, the ruins have been found."

The news from the headset brought Qiao Ya back to his senses in an instant, "I'll be there soon." His voice was hoarse and concise.

Li Siguang also seemed to have received the report, and while listening intently, he quickly followed Qiao Ya.

Joya was a little puzzled by the rapid progress. The collapsed ruins were almost completely submerged in the clotted metal mountain, as if they were completely grown inside.

"what's the situation?"

The first time Qiao Ya stepped into the door, she looked at the screen hanging from the top—it was a live broadcast.

On the screen, a huge space has been burned out at the end of the dark corridor.

At first, Qiao Ya wondered where so much molten iron went, but in the next second he saw a mural half-submerged in hot molten iron, distorted by the red light.

"Sorry Director."

An apologetic and rough answer came from the headset:

"The subordinates seem to be a little rough. The room has been flooded with molten iron to the bottom, and now it is a solid lump of iron."

Joya: ...

"No, we can't see this mural without flooding."

Li Siguang vetoed it smoothly:

"Although there is no oxygen, the carbon dioxide concentration in the Martian atmosphere is enough to corrode it in a short time. You see, the lines on its edge have begun to distort, and the metal vapor has protected it to a certain extent."

Joya didn't intend to blame anyone, he ordered the magnified mural of the flickering mural and asked the soldiers and beasts to send a copy to the earth as soon as possible.

——Among the more than 2000 people on Mars, there are no professional ancient historians and archaeologists at all.

Simply because Li Siguang deserves to be a master, it doesn't feel too much pressure to play a half-archaeologist as a cameo in geology.

"I also have a situation here." Li Siguang said while carefully observing the half mural.

"Speak." Qiao Ya was also observing the murals, he didn't quite understand them, and was more thinking.
