Crane's Ark of Tomorrow Daily

After getting close to UNIVE-02, Amiya carefully observed the shell of UNIVE-02.Apart from being stained with some light orange liquid, the surface of UNIVE-02 did not show much damage, only a dent appeared, and a little paint was rubbed off. It seems that it must have hit something accidentally.

Afterwards, Amiya opened the waterproof casing of UNIVE-02, took out the storage device inside, and connected it to the console.

In addition to the video captured by the camera, there is also a half-drawn three-dimensional topographic map.

Amiya compared the topographic map with her own memory, and found that there is not much change, it is still so intricate, full of forks everywhere, but now the passage is filled with water.

"Huh...it's strange." Looking at it, Amiya found something that was not quite right.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"UNIVE-02 seems to deviate from the planned route?" Amiya frowned, pointing to the unfinished part of the topographic map, and said with some uncertainty, "Look here, I remember that this fork should turn left That's right, but UNIVE-02 entered the fork on the right."

What Amiya was referring to was one of the countless forks in the three-dimensional topographical map.

According to the terrain map, after UNIVE-02 turned into this passage by mistake, it continued to move forward for a long distance, and then returned the same way because the remaining power reached the lower limit set by Amiya.

"Maybe something went wrong. Isn't there a video in UNIVE-02? Don't you know if you take a look?"

"That's right..." Amiya nodded, "But let's charge UNIVE-02 first."

With the help of Huang and ACE, they carried UNIVE-02 back to the center of the camp, plugged it in and started charging, and then Amiya clicked on the video recorded by UNIVE-02, wanting to see what happened at that time What caused UNIVE-02 to go in the wrong direction.

The picture shook for a while, and then three pictures taken from different angles were displayed on the screen.

UNIVE-02 installed a total of three cameras in different positions on the body, so that it can capture the surrounding situation in 360 degrees without dead angle.

Compared with the image transmitted back before, the picture of UNIVE-02 saved in the local storage is much clearer. After passing through the orange polluted area, the picture shows that UNIVE-02 came to a very empty place.

It looked like some sort of tunnel, with searchlights illuminating the surroundings, all made of the same off-white substance.

UNIVE-02 moved forward slowly, and since there were no accidents, Amiya increased the playback speed to let the video play at eight times the speed.

Along the way, apart from placing a buoy sensor at a certain distance according to the setting, the pictures taken by UNIVE-02 did not change in any way, as if it hadn’t moved forward at all... Gradually, everyone understood this The reason is called 'Infinite Corridor'. In this environment, it is really easy to get lost.

After watching the video for a while, Li Ke frowned and said, "Here...doesn't look like it was formed naturally at all?"

Generally speaking, underground passages are formed by the dissolution and erosion of groundwater. The rise and fall of the earth's crust will cause changes in the groundwater level. After the water level drops or the groundwater dries up, the karst caves remain in this way.

At first Li Ke thought that the 'Infinity Corridor' was a similar place, but that's not the case at all.

He noticed just now that the surface of the Infinity Corridor is very flat and smooth, except for some slight undulations, there are almost no uneven places to be seen. It is impossible to form such an environment in nature.

"Yes, there is a guess that the 'Infinity Corridor' was dug out by the ancestors, but no one has provided any evidence." Amiya thought for a while, and then said, "But there are relics of the ancestors inside. , Maybe they really dug it out... I don’t know what they want to do.”

"Manual excavation..." Li Ke murmured while pinching his chin, then calmed down, and did not ask any other questions.

Soon, most of the video has been played, gradually approaching the place where UNIVE-02 entered the wrong route.

At this time, some changes finally appeared in the pictures captured by UNIVE-02. A large number of cracks gradually appeared on the surrounding passages, and some gravel appeared on the ground. It looked very dangerous, as if it happened once. Like a big earthquake.

UNIVE-02 continued to move forward. When it reached the last fork in the terrain map, all the onlookers cheered up, wanting to see what happened next.

Just when UNIVE-02 was about to turn and head towards the fork on the left, a rock fell from the crack above the passage and hit the top of UNIVE-02 heavily.

The picture it captured suddenly shook violently. After the field of vision stabilized again, UNIVE-02 had gone in the wrong direction and entered the fork on the right.

It seems that the depression on the shell of UNIVE-02 was left here.

"So it was just an accident..." Seeing this, Amiya patted her chest with some relief.

It's okay if it's an accident.

As for the next shot, she didn't care much about it anymore... Anyway, it was going in the wrong direction, and she couldn't take any useful shots.

It's just... Amiya's idea was ruthlessly broken before she could maintain it for a few seconds.

"Amiya, look! UNIVE-02 seems to have captured something strange on the channel?"

Amiya froze for a moment, then quickly turned her attention back to the console, and after a closer look, she saw what Warfarin called 'strange things'.

"Is this... a mural?"

……

As a result, the zeroth night by the underground lake was spent safely in this way, except for scratches on the shell of UNIVE-02, no one had any accidents.

the night of the second day.

Because Rhodes Island's support can only arrive at night, the eight people staying in the mine also changed their schedules, becoming what they are now, resting during the day and going out at night.

Of course, they couldn't see the sun at all underground, and day and night meant nothing to either of them.

Also around [-]:[-] p.m., Rhode Island's logistics robot delivered today's support materials to the abandoned mine, along with Rhode Island's latest arrangements.

The materials were transported back to the underground lake in batches by mine carts, and eight people also gathered in the temporary house in the camp, preparing to discuss some things.

They have a lot of things to discuss and decide, the first is the specific arrangement for the next period of time...the second is the last scene they saw in the video of UNIVE-02 yesterday.

Why are there... murals on the walls of the Infinity Corridor?

It's a pity that the screen only appeared for a short moment, and then UNIVE-02 returned the same way because the battery had reached the preset warning value.

By pausing the video and watching it carefully, they could only see some vague patterns and couldn't tell what it was, but it was clear that there were signs of human activity there.

Therefore, in the next temporary meeting, they will discuss matters related to it, to see if they want to continue to follow this clue, or just forget it.

In addition, the news from Rhodes Island was not good. After Amiya finished reading the letter, she immediately told everyone the news.
