Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Latest URL: Inside a grotto shaped like a tomb.

Professor Fernal, who was squatting beside a square stone, supported his knees with both hands, and slowly stood up from the ground.

Watching Professor Fernall standing up, Schultz, who stood aside, lowered his arms around his chest and asked two steps forward.

"Did you find any clues?"

"Of course ... the relics here are of great value for excavation, which can be described as a bumper harvest," Professor Faulner looked at Schultz with an excited expression on his face, and suddenly raised a question, "You heard Ever a mummy legend? "

Faced with this sudden problem, Schultz gave a slight hesitation, and his face was gradually filled with fog.

"Have heard a little ... what happened?"

"The ancient Egyptians believed that after death, the soul is immortal, and as long as the corpse is immortal, it will one day be able to break the ground and regenerate. Therefore, in order to prevent the corpse from decaying, the Pharaohs will instruct their servants to empty their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death Salt, spices, ointment, honey and sackcloth to make millennias that don't rot. "

The throat knot moved up and down, Schultz looked at the square stones, and said with a strange expression, "Do you mean ... the significance of the existence of these 'sarcophagi' is to prevent the decay of the remains?"

"Of course it is impossible," Professor Fernal smiled, and continued, "If it is for corrosion protection, storing corpses in easily oxidizable metal containers is obviously the most unwise choice. We assume billions of years ago Mars has almost the same oxygen resources as Earth-even more abundant, and the civilization here has the technology to dig such a vast project on the ocean floor several kilometers deep, and they cannot even know such basic chemical principles. "

"Then what do you think will be here?"

"Obviously, this is a shelter."

"Shelter?"

"Yeah," looking at Schultz with a satisfied face on his face, Professor Fernal nodded and continued, "In the event of an irreparable disaster on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins ... It was an iron coffin at least billions of years ago, and then dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up someday. You should have heard of it. The freezing dormancy technology that is very popular on earth now seems to use X-0172 bacteria. Those Yankees brought back from Mars. "

Schultz nodded, and a stunned expression appeared on his face.

He certainly would not have heard of it, and he even remembered what dormant bacteria had caused a lot of trouble at the time.

But now, the X-0172 bacteria has changed from a beast of fierceness to a citron in people's eyes.

It is a gospel, especially for those who are terminally ill. In the case that the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have an option to survive, although they must be separated from their close relatives ...

However, Schultz still didn't understand.

If these things are dormant cabins, why are they eventually annihilated in the dust of history.

"Obviously, they failed," as if guessing what Schultz was thinking, Professor Furnell shrugged, and continued, "Although they made some self-help attempts, their extinction was almost It is destined that the dormancy on the time scale of a hundred years is in the face of hundreds of millions of years of long rivers, but it is just dying. The parent star has lost the protection of the magnetic field, lost the atmosphere, and even the ocean ... even if it is more developed Civilization also needs the soil on which to live. "

Faced with the unimaginable doomsday, Schultz was silent for a while.

After a long time, he asked.

"You say these Martians ... what could it be? I mean biologically."

"I do n’t know, but mammals can be excluded first. The gravity environment here is not easy for bone development and calcium accumulation. Even if there are mammals in the ecosystem here, their volume should not be large, and it is more difficult to develop a wide enough Skull ... In contrast, invertebrates should have more advantages, especially arthropods. Their size will be larger than on the earth, and theoretically they can have a larger brain to accommodate more neurons. "

"The hallmark of the emergence of civilization is fire and the use of tools, but in essence it is the ability to process and communicate information."

With that said, Professor Fernall shrugged and said with a smile.

"Of course, all this is just speculation. Even with all the prerequisites, the birth of civilization is full of coincidence. Just from the two samples of ants and bees, it is possible for arthropods to evolve to coordinate large groups, and Social systems engaged in more intensive production activities. "

Talking, the excitement on Professor Fernall's face grew stronger.

Squinting eyes looked around, as if it wasn't a pile of rocks, but a gold mine sitting in front of him!

"... Everything here is very interesting. It is like a pyramid of Mars civilization. By digging them, we may be able to restore the reason why Mars lost its magnetic field, and at the last moment of life, people living here will do What salvation attempts have been made. Whether it is to understand the history of billions of years ago, or to our own future, these precious relics are of great significance. "

"If conditions permit, I want to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"

Just as Professor Fernard was excited, and Schultz described his imaginary idea with a look of aggression, the shaking of the mountain came again under their feet.

Reaching out to support the stones next to him, watching the rubble and dust shaking off the ceiling, the expression on Professor Fernard's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to terror.

"Fack ?! Here again?"

"We must leave here!"

Standing firm, Schultz, who first reacted, grabbed his shoulder and wanted to drag him away from here, but he found that he vomited blood. This guy was like crazy, and he planned to leave a little No.

"Wait a minute, wait for me to get some more samples back ..."

He grabbed the multi-purpose **** in his hand and threw it out fiercely.

With all his strength, Schultz shook him with a miserable look from the **** of wandering.

"What the **** are you thinking !?"

"Stay here again, we have to make specimens ourselves!"

Speaking, it was another violent shock.

This time, it is unnecessary to remind Schultz. Professor Fernall, who had completely returned to his mind, finally realized the seriousness of the problem, and rushed to the nearest exit.

Almost as soon as the two passed through the spacious grotto and drilled out of the hole on the other side, the tunnel behind them closed like an avalanche.

With a glance back, Schultz with a fear in his heart suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.

No, to be precise, that is intuition.

I always feel that the collapse of these tunnels seems a bit unusual.

However, the situation now did not allow him to think more.

He had no choice but to push forward with the energy to feed ...

...

Almost at the same time, in another tunnel.

After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of the space suit and nodded thoughtfully.

"So it is ..."

Aubrey: "Did you understand?"

Lomonov: "... probably?"

Hearing that uncertain speech, Professor Aubrey sighed, and threw the multi-purpose **** in his hand aside, leaning on the rock wall next to him, sitting on the ground with a fart.

"Shett ... I seem to be talking for nothing."

"It's a haze of yours," Professor Lomonov complained. "What standard Euclidean space? And what interference of four-dimensional matter with three-dimensional space ... What does this have to do with earthquakes?"

"There is no earthquake, and the road under our feet has not even changed. If my inference is correct, nothing will happen even if it is engulfed by the collapsed tunnel, but it will follow the moving space from a three-dimensional The coordinates are moved to another three-dimensional coordinate. "

Lomonov: "Does this conform to the law of conservation of energy?"

"Conservation of energy? Of course it is conserved," Professor Aubrey drew a mark on the ground with a multifunctional **** in his hands, sighed and continued. "The state of matter has not changed, and energy has not changed, but The order in three-dimensional space is disrupted. If you can't understand the standard Euclidean space, you should understand the hamster wheel, right? "

"You are so we are now like hamsters on a hamster wheel?"

"You can say that," Professor Aubrey said. "This space is circular. Maybe the road we are walking right now is the way we have gone before."

Upon hearing this cycle, Professor Lomonov's face suddenly appeared a strange expression.

What he wants to ask is, if this is the case, is it still necessary to move on?

However, just when he wanted to ask such a question, the earth suddenly shook violently, scaring Professor Aubrey from the ground, watching the gravel that trembled from the ceiling, and the possibility of collapse at any time. Tunnel, spread your legs and run.

"WTF ?! Isn't it once every two hours? How many minutes is this? How come again?"

Lomonov ran forward with a sloppy pace, and roared.

"Don't you say it's okay to be swallowed by that collapsed tunnel!"

"I said it!"

"Then you run a fart ?!"

"The theory is a matter of time, and the experiment is another matter! Not to mention I am only guessing, do you dare to take your own life to try it !? Thank you, stop talking nonsense, run away!"

Tiny stones and dust kept falling from the top of the cave, smashing into the tops and shoulders of the two.

The collapsed tunnel behind was getting closer and closer, and the legs were not very convenient for the two people, with desperate expressions on their faces.

But at this moment, there was a bright light ahead.

The moment the discovery of the bright light, the expression on Professor Aubrey's face was slightly stagnation, and despair turned into ecstasy in an instant.

"Exit! The exit is ahead! Hurry!"

Can't take care of that much anymore.

Although they could not find any clues about extraterrestrial civilizations, at least they survived. Perhaps Congress will be disappointed by this, but Aubrey believes that if he dies in it, it will probably cause more trouble to his country and the people of the world.

And as long as he is alive, then everything is easy to say!

"I will never explore this place again! Keke--"

Finally broke through the desperate darkness, Professor Aubrey, who ran out of the tunnel, propped his right hand on a stone pillar at the cave door, panting desperately for a while, then calmed down.

However, the moment he raised his head, the whole man was stunned slightly.

I saw more than just them.

Beside the rover, including the two Chinese people Wang Peng and Fan Tong who had separated with them, as well as the archaeological Englishman and the German who studied mathematics are also here.

Except for Academician Lu ...

Seeing Professor Aubrey running out of the cave, Wang Peng took a few steps forward, reached out and grabbed his shoulder, his eyes were bloodshot and stared at his eyes.

The creepy feeling made him shudder.

Professor Aubrey, staring straight at him, felt as if he had forgotten how to breathe for a while.

"Where is Lu Zhou! Where is he ?!"

"How do I know?" Professor Aubrey trembled with a trembling body, "I'm not his bodyguard, let alone he's with you ?!"

"..."

Although he did not trust the Yankee's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulder.

He cast his gaze at the dangling hole, his fist squeezed tightly, and a sudden flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

"I'll go to Academician Lu."

As if looking at a lunatic, Fan Tong stared at him with wide eyes.

"Are you crazy ?! On the scale of this earthquake, I am afraid that the entire mountain range will suffer!"

"Then you go back first--"

Before this sentence was finished, the people standing at the entrance of the cave were suddenly shaken from the soles of the feet, giving a tremor to the top, the feeling of the mountain shaking from all directions, even the one standing at the door The stone pillars all uttered an overwhelming groan and began to fall aside.

Seeing this scene, everyone's face changed, and ran towards the Mars rover next to him.

"Quick! Drive!"

"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"

"Can't care so much! He is going to die by himself, are you going to pull everyone to die with him ?!"

Listening to the roar from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.

No one wants to die, including himself.

Especially the unknown is dead.

In the end, he made up his mind and said sorry in his heart. He grabbed two cans of oxygen bottles and threw them out of the door. Then he started the Mars rover at the fastest speed in his life.

It doesn't make sense to stay here, except to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.

Avoiding the rocks rolling down from the ridge, Fan Tong used the power of feeding to step the throttle to the bottom, and hurriedly went all the way, and finally rushed out of the pass when he came out in no danger.

Almost immediately after they escaped, a giant rock wall, about ten meters long, separated from the towering ridge, and crashed in the dust toward the pass where they had passed.

If it is one second later, they may have been left in it forever ...

The rolling stones rose with the sand and sky, let alone through the window of the car. Even if you stand on the satellite, you may see it clearly.

Cycling all the way in the desert, feeling the aftershocks coming from under the cushion, looking back at the people behind him, the expressions on the face after the disaster were revealed.

"grass……"

Hitting the steering wheel with a severe punch ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Fan Tong, who slowly slowed down the car, suddenly put his forehead on it, his shoulders shaking with twitching.

Schultz patted his shoulder silently, expressing comfort.

Everyone in the car was silent, and there was no exchange of words on the way back.

Only Professor Aubrey murmured "it's like the entrance to hell", and no longer responded, he bowed his head silently.

June 10.

this day.

One of the worst earthquakes since human observation occurred on Mars. Even the Mars scientific research station a few kilometers away can clearly feel the tremor of the mountain shaking there.

And on the same day.

Mars Scientific Station lost two outstanding players ...
