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

In just a few days, [Poseidon] arrived near the destination.

Lines of faint text flashed across the holographic projection above the console.

【Arrival at the preset location soon】

【Deceleration completed】

【Successful entry into orbit】

【Waking up the driver...】

In the cockpit, the working indicators of the two deep-sea cabins quickly lit up.

The yellowish deep-sea fluid inside rapidly decreased.

The hatch opens.

Hope opened his eyes abruptly.

"Cough! Cough!"

While coughing hard, he got out of the deep-sea cabin.

Because he had just come out of hibernation, his body was still a little stiff at this time.

He first glanced at the hibernation cabin next to him, and saw that Hansent had opened his eyes, and then he put on the electromagnetic boots with confidence, and staggered towards the driver's seat.

"Click."

A crisp sound sounded, and the electromagnetic adsorption device on the seat took effect.

Coughing, he pressed a few buttons on the holographic projection.

When he saw the indicator lights on the side, Hope endured the discomfort from his lungs and reported in Dahui:

"Call the command center, cough cough, this is the [Poseidon] survey ship, please answer if you receive it, cough cough!"

"We've arrived, repeat, we've arrived."

"I'm out of the cabin and I feel good!"

"Click."

Beside him, the sound of the electromagnetic adsorption device came.

"Ahem, is this an ice giant?"

Hansent coughed, raised his head, and looked at the blue planet in front of him through the small porthole in front of him.

"It's... spectacular..."

Looking at the slowly moving reddish-brown "streamer" on the surface of the ice giant, Hansen expressed his emotion.

"Is it spectacular?"

Hope shrugged: "I hope you can say the same when we go in."

Before Hansen had time to speak, the working indicator light of the ultra-distance communication device lit up.

"This is the command center."

"Prepare to initiate landing procedures."

Lu Yongchang's gentle voice came from the speaker.

"Be safe, both of you."

Chapter 470 Crossing the Ammonia Ice Cloud

Hope took a deep breath, lowered his head to check the seat belts on himself and Hansent, and reached out to press the button on the holographic projection.

"Landing procedures initiated."

"Slowing down..."

"Estimated contact with the upper atmosphere in 10 minutes..."

A bright red countdown appeared in the holographic projection directly in front of the two of them.

Hope and Henson didn't pay much attention to the various sensor data bouncing on the hologram.

In the absence of any unexpected situation, one is enough to control [Poseidon] to complete this landing operation.

Moreover, as a key project of the Academy of Sciences, Zero also allocated a lot of resources for [Poseidon].

Therefore, the two of them turned their gazes to the porthole ahead.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to observe an ice giant up close!

As the speed of [Poseidon] gradually decreases, under the gravitational pull of the ice giant, the distance between the exploration ship and the ice giant is getting closer and closer.

The overwhelming blue came into the eyes of the two drivers through the narrow portholes, and a suffocating sense of oppression came over them!

Compared with giant planets, a small mineral exploration ship is like an inconspicuous dust.

Under the action of gravity, this dust fell into this ice giant planet "without hesitation".

Blue, endless blue.

Without any reference, Hope and Hansent could not even perceive their own state, only the constantly beating numbers in the holographic projection reminded them that they were descending rapidly.

Outside the porthole, a layer of faint white "clouds" gradually appeared.

The "cloud and mist" is very light, and it is almost invisible without careful observation.

Hope glanced at the hologram.

0.01 standard atmospheres.

"We have entered the atmosphere of the ice giant." Hope reminded his teammates in a low voice.

Hansen didn't speak, just looked at the porthole silently.

Like Hansen, every scientific researcher in the surface command center of Dawn Star will stare intently at the precious image data sent back by the ultra-distance communication device.

"Ammonia ice cloud."

Looking at the gradually thickening white "cloud" in the holographic image, Lu Yongchang said in a deep voice.

It is completely consistent with the data returned by the detector.

The ice giant's upper atmosphere is filled with clouds of solid ammonia crystals.

The white clouds are moving very fast, showing that an extremely strong storm is happening outside!

"Notice!"

Lu Yongchang looked at the data sent back by the sensor, and said in a serious tone: "At this time, the outside wind speed has reached 593km/h, so prepare for impact!"

As soon as the words fell, before Hope could reply, he felt a violent tremor coming from all around.

He hurriedly glanced at the holographic projection.

0.5 standard atmospheres.

0.6 standard atmospheres.

0.7, 0.8...

As the atmospheric pressure continued to increase, the shaking of the ship became more and more intense.

The several Hall thruster nozzles set up around the hull played a role at this moment.

With the energy support provided by the nuclear fusion reactor, they maintain the stability of the ship as much as possible.

Outside the porthole, there is no longer endless blue.

Instead, it was a white "cloud" that was moving at high speed!

At this time, the exploration ship has already fallen into the thick ammonia ice cloud!

As the altitude continues to decrease, the external atmospheric pressure is also increasing.

But the wind speed outside is slowly decreasing.

For the [Poseidon] exploration ship, this is undoubtedly excellent news.

The world outside the porthole is getting darker, thick clouds of ammonia ice blocking the light from the host star.

"Hancent, turn on all the searchlights!"

Hope resisted the dizziness caused by the violent trembling, and shouted loudly.

Hansen nodded with difficulty, stretched out his hand and pressed the button on his side with a livid face.

Incomparably powerful rays of light emanated from the hull, illuminating the surrounding atmosphere.

Still thick white clouds.

After falling for several minutes, they still hadn't escaped from the thick cloud of ammonia ice.

"Crack!"

It was a huge lightning that pierced through the entire cloud!

The extremely thick lightning quickly spread to the end of the line of sight like a thunder dragon, dispelling the endless darkness in the distance!

Hope was short of breath, his pupils dilated slightly, and he stared intently at the spectacular scene outside the porthole.

The thick ammonia ice clouds formed "towering" peaks. Under the super strong hurricane, these "mountains" surged rapidly and changed their shapes!

He can even imagine that among these extremely huge peaks, the exploration ship is like a grain of dust emitting a faint light, constantly falling down!

"Fuck..."

Hope muttered to himself.

At this moment, there are no words in his mind to describe the strong sense of shock in his heart!

Worth it!

This journey is worth it!

Just this scene alone made him feel that he has no regrets in this life!

The surging clouds kept rubbing against each other, releasing lightning bolts one after another.

"warn!"

"Lightning warning!"

Zero's electronic synthesis sound suddenly sounded in the exploration ship!

"Damn!!!" Hope and Hansen's complexion changed drastically, and they shouted in unison.

"Calm down!" Lu Yongchang's voice came from the loudspeaker, "Theoretically, the magnetic field shield equipped on the exploration ship can resist these lightning strikes!"

"Theoretically?!"

Seeing the rapidly approaching golden lightning, Hansen felt his scalp go numb!

Zero's electronically synthesized voice interrupted Hansent's words.

"Activating the magnetic field shield!"

"The magnetic field shield has been activated!"

A silver snake spread from the end of the line of sight, slashing straight at the exploration ship!

The golden lightning instantly engulfed the [Poseidon] exploration ship!

"Hall's propulsion device is restarting..."

"The shield generation unit is recharging..."

Zero's voice sounded in the pitch-black cockpit, and the lighting device started working again, quickly dispelling the surrounding darkness.

"Fuck...fuck...brother, we survived!"

Hansent swallowed hard, and said in a trembling voice: "It's so fucking exciting!!!"

"When labor and management go back, we must show off to them!"

"Hope?" Hansen, who didn't hear the response, frowned and turned to look in Hope's direction, "Don't you find it exciting?"

I saw Hope staring straight at the narrow porthole in front of him.

"Stimulation?" Hope muttered to himself, "I hope you can be so stubborn..."
