It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

He shrugged: "I have to say that we are very lucky."

Lu Yongchang's voice rang again after a pause: "It's just...the only problem is that since those jellyfish can feel the temperature changes on the sea surface, their living area must be in the Kraken-Mare Sea on the surface."

"Otherwise, no matter how powerful their heat-sensitive organs are, it is impossible to sense the temperature change of the sea surface through a layer of rock."

"This brings up another problem." Lu Yongchang frowned deeper, "Since they live in the Kraken-Mare Sea, why can't they survive in the seawater of the breeding room?"

"unless……"

Gao Yang's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously shouted: "Unless the two oceans are connected!"

Chapter 247 The Ice Volcano

Lu Yongchang, who was interrupted, cast a complimenting look at Gao Yang.

"good."

"Although I don't know where and in what form they are connected, there is a high probability that the two layers of oceans are connected."

"That's good news for us, too."

Lu Yongchang picked up the water glass on the table and moistened his throat.

"The shells of these three robots should be strong enough to withstand the pressure of the seafloor."

"Under the control of the built-in program, they may one day come out of the inner sea and send us data again."

"Of course, it takes a certain amount of luck."

As he spoke, Lu Yongchang shook his head helplessly.

Apparently, he didn't believe it himself.

"Professor, do we still need to send robots to detect?" Zhao Zijie asked quickly.

Lu Yongchang pondered for a moment, then rejected Zhao Zijie's proposal.

"not needed for now."

"The performance of the robots on the Luanniao starship is not enough. Let's continue the detection mission later."

"I will send [Glutton] to bring enough detection robots to pick you up."

……

Half a month passed in a flash.

"Zijie, hasn't [Taotie] arrived yet?" Gao Yang sat on his seat and asked boredly.

Zhao Zijie shook his head silently, then turned to look at the holographic image on the side.

【Warehouse Capacity: 80%】

"It is estimated that the departure time was delayed in order to manufacture the detection robot." Zhao Zijie shrugged and said helplessly, "But it is just right, we were also delayed by the tide and jellyfish, and the warehouse is not full yet."

Gao Yang stood up from the chair, walked to the porthole, and looked at the sparkling sea in the distance.

"By the way, it's been half a month, and those three robots should have come out of that inland sea, right?"

"You can pull it down."

Zhao Zijie curled his lips, and said angrily: "Do you really think you are the chosen one? I guess these three robots will last forever..."

"Drip! Drip! Drip!"

A rush of reminders interrupted Zhao Zijie's words.

[Detected robot communication signal]

"..." Zhao Zijie turned his head stiffly to look at Gao Yang, "What the hell?"

Gao Yang looked at the flickering holographic images in astonishment, and muttered to himself: "Yi, don't be joking..."

[The data transmission channel is successfully established]

【Transferring storage data...】

"F*ck, shit, shit! Gao Yang, what the hell are you talking about?!" Zhao Zijie burst out a series of foul language.

what is this?

Chosen Son?

"Don't stand still!" Seeing that Gao Yang was still standing by the porthole, Zhao Zijie shouted loudly, "Contact Professor Lu!"

……

A few minutes later, the long-distance communication with Mars was successfully connected.

In the hologram, Lu Yongchang looked at Zhao Zijie and Gao Yang as if he had seen a ghost.

"Are you sure these are the three robots that fell into the inner sea?!"

Zhao Zijie swallowed, nodded indiscernibly: "Professor, if there are no others on this planet, I think they should be them."

"Damn... trough!" Lu Yongchang struggled for a long time, and choked out two Chinese characters expressing admiration.

What kind of luck is this?

To be honest, after learning that the three robots fell into the inner sea, Lu Yongchang directly gave up the idea of ​​waiting for the three robots to climb out by themselves.

The reason is very simple, the terrain is unknown, without any navigation, relying only on the poor automatic program, the probability of the three robots crawling out by themselves is infinitely close to zero!

But, this happened just like that!

"Where are they?" Lu Yongchang stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and asked in a low voice.

Especially after knowing what Gao Yang said, he felt that his world view had been impacted.

Zhao Zijie quickly reached out and clicked on the holographic image a few times.

When he saw the result, Zhao Zijie's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Professor, it's not far from us, just a hundred kilometers away."

【Data transfer completed】

A line of text flashed across the holographic image on the side.

"Professor, the data transmission is complete!" Zhao Zijie's voice revealed a bit of excitement, "I will send it to you now."

……

The transfer speed is fast.

Lu Yongchang, who was sitting in the office, looked at the holographic image in front of him with anticipation in his eyes.

"Zero, open the file and let me see what the inner sea looks like!"

"Okay, Professor."

The file was opened, and the holographic image was pitch black, and a sense of shaking could be vaguely seen.

Lu Yongchang frowned: "Zero, speed up, just skip the useless screens."

The image changes rapidly until it freezes on a certain frame.

A long corridor.

Driven by the "water flow", the robot slowly walked towards the corridor ahead.

The floor of the corridor gradually slopes upwards, and the diameter becomes narrower and narrower.

The spacious space that could have been used for three robots to move forward gradually turned into a narrow passage for only one robot to move forward.

Inside the corridor, waxy substances can be seen everywhere attached to the channel walls.

Before Lu Yongchang could ask any questions, Ling released a series of preliminary test data.

"Professor, it's some organic matter with complex composition, the robot has already sampled it."

Lu Yongchang nodded slightly, and asked again: "What about the composition of sea water?"

"There is a lot more organic matter than the Kraken-Mare Sea, and the temperature is about 1 degree Celsius higher."

After the voice fell, the holographic picture suddenly became clear!

"Professor, according to the detection, the robot has come to the Kraken-Mare Sea, and the depth is about 250 meters at this time."

"The next screen is a real-time image from the robot."

With that said, Zero controlled the robot to look back at the way it came.

"This is..." The moment Lu Yongchang saw the terrain structure, he couldn't help but froze in place.

Ice volcano

"Crater? Ice volcano?"

"It turns out that the two oceans are connected by ice volcanoes!"

The so-called cryovolcanoes are low-temperature volcanoes, and the eruptive products are usually water, ammonia or methane.

At extremely low temperatures, liquid methane and other organic matter slowly flow from the ice craters.

Like a volcano erupting.

"Zero, control the robot to look around." Lu Yongchang said suddenly, "Turn the brightness of the searchlight to the maximum!"

"receive."

A few seconds later, the originally dim screen brightened instantly.

There was some joy in Lu Yongchang's eyes.

"Sure enough!"

In real-time footage, endless pale yellow jellyfish circled the ice crater.

The increased temperature after the searchlights were turned up seemed to attract their attention.

Seeing those jellyfish "swimming" towards the robot, Zero hurriedly turned down the power of the searchlight.

Fortunately, the "warm" liquid ejected from the ice crater attracted the attention of these jellyfish in time, and the three robots survived.

Chapter 248 Hunting Plan

The real-time images sent back by the three robots also came into the eyes of Zhao Zijie and Gao Yang.

Zhao Zijie couldn't help holding his breath when he saw the overwhelming pale yellow jellyfish.

"I see!"

Lu Yongchang's soliloquy came from the loudspeaker.

After Zhao Zijie turned his head and looked at Gao Yang, there was some doubt in his eyes, and he asked in a low voice.

"Professor, have you found anything?"

The voice of inquiry interrupted Lu Yongchang's train of thought.

He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Zijie and Gao Yang in the picture, smiled and shook his head: "It's not really a discovery."

"I just want to understand some problems."

"Question?" Gao Yang's tone was full of doubts.

"Yes." As he spoke, Lu Yongchang stood up from his chair and walked to the window of the office with a full face of emotion, "About the death of the jellyfish we caught."

"Unlike the Kraken-Mare Sea, the seawater in the Inland Sea is warmer and contains more organic matter."

"Also, these inland sea materials will be erupted towards the Kraken-Mare Sea through cryovolcanoes."

"As for the cause of the eruption, there is a high probability that it is the tidal action caused by Saturn."

"This also creates a phenomenon that the eruptions of these ice volcanoes are periodic."

"For those jellyfish, the cryovolcanoes distributed on the bottom of the Kraken-Mare Sea are like habitable places with abundant supplies, which not only motivate them to move constantly, but also provide them with sufficient nutrients."

"Unless we can create a similar environment in our tanks, we'll never be able to keep these amazing creatures."

Zhao Zijie looked at the holographic image in front of him in a daze: "Then, then our breeding plan..."

"give up."

Lu Yongchang sighed forcefully: "Even if we can simulate a similar environment, it would take too much energy and time."

"We can't do business that loses money."
