The legend of Tiga

Chapter 1899 The Lost Sun

If you open the door and find that the table that was empty before you left is now full of takeout boxes, there must be a thief.

This was Iruma Hui's first reaction, and he immediately shared the information with the people present. When everyone looked down, he said seriously, "There is definitely a big problem here."

The minds that had been dazzled by the huge amount of gold suddenly calmed down, and their brows began to frown. They whispered to each other, with a bit more doubt between their brows.

Staff Officer Edo of the Research Department pushed up his glasses that had slipped down from looking down at the data, pursed his lips, and said hesitantly, "Could it be that we didn't find it at the time? After all, our technology has developed very quickly over the years. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's changing with each passing day. The hyperspectral remote sensing satellite used this time was just launched two years ago. Compared with ten years ago, its performance has improved by more than ten times."

When talking about technology, Jianghu Consultant, who is the head of the scientific research department, has a lot to say. Human technology has developed rapidly in recent years. In addition to human efforts, there is also the "strong support" of aliens.

From observing from a distance at the beginning to flying around the earth in unidentified flying vehicles later.

Although it is fun to see aliens, there are unexpected events and people are subject to misfortunes at any time. Aliens are also humans, and UFOs are also machines. There are always times when things go wrong. Therefore, occasionally aircraft crash into the earth for various reasons, such as the people from the Daisis galaxy.

After reverse engineering, the crashed spacecraft has brought great benefits to mankind. During the period when monsters frequently occurred, more than one spaceship fell into the hands of TPC.

These spaceships of aliens have given wings to the technological development of the earth. It is so fast that it is no exaggeration to say that there is a new development every month and a new chapter every year.

Things that were impossible ten years ago have now become a reality.

For example, ten years ago, the city on Mars only existed on PPTs and drawings, but now it has become a reality, with the immigration of 100,000 people completed and is heading towards the million level.

That's why the Edo staff thought that the underground gold that couldn't be discovered ten years ago might be because technology was not yet available. But now that technology has developed, the underground gold has been discovered.

"Although this is possible, but..." Iruma Hui frowned and did not say the following words. After all, intuition cannot be used as evidence, and it cannot be brought up in a meeting.

"Whether it is or not, we will know after drilling."

"If it's true, that would be great."

"So much gold, if applied to industry"

"."

Everyone was talking about it and had begun to imagine how to use so much gold.

It is naturally impossible to put millions or even tens of millions of tons of gold on the market. It must be used in the industrial field. In addition to electronics, more is used in the aerospace field. In particular, new field plans are in full swing. Various spacecraft have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and they are constantly emerging, some going to the moon, some going to Mars, some developing space tourism, and so on.

In the aerospace field, gold is used for electrical contacts and connectors of various spacecraft and satellites because of its excellent conductivity and strong corrosion resistance. Even gold plating can ensure that the electrical connection is more stable and reliable. In addition, due to its high reflectivity in the infrared and visible spectrum, gold is used as a coating for telescopes and sensors.

Gold's high atomic mass and high density can effectively block radiation. Therefore, astronauts' goggles and protective shields, and the surfaces of sensitive electronic components are wrapped with a thin layer of gold foil or plated with gold.

As for the electronic components and circuits of spacecraft, gold is even more indispensable.

It is conceivable that once so much gold is put into the industrial market, the entire aerospace industry will achieve great development, the lifespan of spacecraft and satellites will also be improved to a certain extent, and the direct and indirect economic benefits will be at least eight times, if not ten times.

However, their fantasy was poured with a bucket of cold water just as it began.

"But the timing of the discovery is a bit too coincidental," Iruma Hui still frowned, staring at the electronic map in front of him, and said, "These rivers all originate from the land of Tiga, just like signposts."

"Could it be that?" Staff Officer Quan Teng's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "There is something underground in the land of Tiga?"

Although it was a question, it was said in an affirmative tone, which made the eyes of several staff officers present at the meeting light up and joy appeared on their faces.

Because they also thought of one thing, that is, there is a "treasure" in the land of Tiga.

This idea has been firmly believed by many people since a huge pyramid appeared in the land of Tiga. Inside the pyramid were two stone statues that looked like the same race as Tiga.

When humans are buried, they will more or less take some burial objects with them.

It would be better if it wasn't a tomb.

It's not a tomb, but there are two giant stone statues placed in a glowing pyramid. Maybe it's a research center or something. It must be full of ancient treasures.

It was with this idea in mind that TPC persevered in research and exploration for several years, until it had no choice but to give up because it still found nothing.

But I never expected that just a few years after giving up, I would make such a big discovery.

There are tens of millions of tons of gold underground, and hundreds of thousands of tons of gold have been discovered in the rivers on the ground.

It is simply a mountain of gold and a river of gold.

It is no exaggeration to say that the person in charge of the Tiga land at the time must be regretting it to death.

Just look at the hyperspectral satellite remote sensing images, and if you dig a few more times, you might find gold deposits.

Even if no super ancient things were found in the land of Tiga, just based on the amount of gold, it would have been a huge achievement, but we missed it.

This is like buying lottery tickets with the same number over and over again, but not buying the one that wins a billion-dollar prize. It makes people regret it to death.

Having said that, how can a place with giant stone statues be an ordinary place?
There must be something special about it.

Unfortunately, nothing was gained in the end, and the heavy losses in the final battle forced TPC to scale back the project and concentrate on urban reconstruction. The research on the land of Tiga was suspended, and this suspension lasted for seven years.

It was not until today that the "accidental" discovery of tens of millions of tons of gold underground made people dig up from the depths of their memories this special place that once caused a sensation.

And what Staff Officer Quan Teng just said made everyone think of a possibility. Could the gold underground and the gold strangely scattered on the riverbed be something "special" that leaked out from the land of Tiga?

After all, the super ancient civilization already had a large number of giants at their disposal, so mining ore in the asteroid belt or even further away would be a piece of cake, if not easy. Gold is also a good conductor, so it is estimated that the super ancient civilization would have used a lot of it.

So it is a bold guess that the underground gold in the land of Tiga could be stored in the super ancient times. This also explains why there is a pyramid on the ground, and there are two giant stone statues in the pyramid. The pyramid is the security room, and the giants inside are security guards.

Come to think of it, it does make sense.

As for how to verify it, that is not difficult. Just dig out the gold and you will know.

Chiba Cheng did not comment on this, but emphasized to remind the "unknown flame" that wealth is important, but life is also important. Judging from the other party's ability to absorb negative energy from humans, once it obtains enough energy, it will definitely stir up huge waves, and the final gain may be worse than the loss.

Chiba Makoto's words also attracted attention, and he immediately expressed that he would intensify the investigation. However, those words sounded nice, and he was just short of patting his chest to make promises. When it came to actually doing it, he was "conservative".

It’s not that they are perfunctory or don’t try their best, but that they have the will but not the strength.

Except for Chiba Makoto who saw the fire and Maya who felt it, no one else noticed anything.

In the subsequent incidents of huge amounts of unknown gold, there were no reports of sightings of the "unknown flame", which really makes people doubt the authenticity of its existence.

It is because the person who said this is Chiba Makoto, who has the aura of Ultraman Tiga. Otherwise, no one would even pay attention to him.

Not to mention that at this moment everyone's main attention is focused on the huge amount of gold underground, and they are talking about how to mine it and discussing how to distribute it.

In comparison, other things seem less important.

After the meeting, humans quickly took action.

Driven by the trend of huge wealth, they quickly completed the exploration and formed a mining team. Unable to wait for the road to be built, they used large transport planes to transport the underground drilling beam equipment in and completed the assembly at the fastest speed.

In just half a month, the first drilling beam was launched, penetrating the thick soil and layers of rock, reaching the designated location, and leaving behind a round and smooth tunnel.

The next step was to lower the well wall, fix the casing, and then excavate. The first batch of samples were sent to the relevant laboratories as quickly as possible for detailed testing and analysis.

During this period, Chiba Makoto was not idle either. He assembled a space adventure team and launched an investigation.

Originally this was the responsibility of the Super Victory Team, and the Space Adventure Team was mainly responsible for aliens who entered the solar system or even broke into the earth without permission. However, this golden incident was too strange and also involved the land of Tiga, so Chiba Makoto had no choice but to begin the investigation.

The Shapleys performed hypnosis to make the tourists present recall the situation at that time, and Maya used her mental power to read the scene, making Kirino Makuo feel as if he was there in person, so that he could make a "prophecy".

This is also the method most often used by the Space Adventure Team. They let the victim recall the appearance of the alien in his dream, read it, and then "predict the location". This method of finding aliens is always effective and they always catch them.

This time, after reading the perspective of the twentieth "victim" who accidentally caught a glimpse of the fireball in the sky, Kirino Makuo also completed the information collection and began to make "prophecies".

It looked like a shaman performance. Kirino Makufu walked around the room, muttering to himself:

“Cold, warm, small, huge, death, hope.”

The others were not surprised at all, and let Kirino Makufu mutter with his eyes closed. Some even recorded Kirino Makufu's words so that when Kirino Makufu "woke up", he could think about it again and maybe make some additions.

As he was speaking, suddenly, Kirino Makuo let out a scream, covered his eyes, bent over, and his face showed an expression of extreme pain.

Everyone stood up at once, looking at the painful Kirino Maku in surprise, and hurried forward to support Kirino Maku, asking repeatedly:
"what happened?"

"What happened?"

"Are you OK?"

"how do you feel?"

Kirino Makuo gritted his teeth, covered his eyes, and said word by word with difficulty: "I saw the sun, a sun shrouded in death."

After saying this, he leaned to the side and fainted.

"So hot!"

At this time, Fudo Ken, who was hugging Kirino Makuo tightly, suddenly felt that Kirino Makuo in his arms was as hot as a charcoal. Fortunately, the bed was not far away, so Fudo Ken quickly threw Kirino Makuo up, and then he looked down at his palm.

You don't know until you see it. I was shocked when I saw it. The palm that had just touched Kirino Makuo was actually red, and there were even several blisters. It was actually burned.

"This this."

Budong Jian was shocked. The temperature that could burn a person's skin so quickly must be over dozens of degrees. How could a person's body temperature be so high?

"Captain, look at me. I'm burned."

Ken Fudo hurriedly reported to Chiba Makoto, who frowned immediately. He quickly asked Ken Fudo to go to the medical room for treatment. At the same time, he stepped forward cautiously and touched Kirino Makuo's body temperature. It was indeed very high, and it was scary.

"The sun, could it be that Kirino was predicting a sun?"

Maya, who is also a psychic but has developed in a different direction, came to a rather incredible conclusion.

Makuo Kirino can predict the future, but it is not without limitations and costs. If the opponent's energy level is too high and has strong malice, then Makuo Kirino will suffer backlash.

"The sun, shrouded by death, uses gold to induce the negative energy in people's hearts and then absorbs it."

Chiba Makoto muttered to himself, and it was as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and a name instantly appeared: Sun Beast Banderas!
A monster that was transformed from the spirit of a star that was about to burn out came to the earth because it was unwilling to die. It absorbed the negative energy generated by the evil emotions of mankind as fuel to make itself burn again.

Could it be that what Kirino Makuo saw, as well as the flames that have been causing chaos during this period, were actually the spirit of a dying sun?
This explains why there is so much gold, because there is no shortage of gold on the stars; and why Makuo Kirino felt so hot all over, because the stars are so hot that you will feel dizzy if you look at them for too long, and you will get hot all over if you stay there for too long, not to mention getting so close.

Even if it is a dying star, it is still the sun. Any light and heat from it is enough to melt tens of millions of tons of steel, not to mention carbon-based organisms.
