Technology Bigshot

"I'm a scientist!" Aislin said indifferently, obviously not wanting to play with thermal weapons.

"That's right!" Ren Hong nodded thoughtfully, then tossed the pistol aside and ignored it.

"Hey, you don't bring pistols? Self-defense is quite useful." An old beauty laughed.

"You want us to shoot with our own hands?" Ren Hong asked back.

"Uh, sorry, I didn't mean that. Don't worry, with us protecting you, the natives of Mars will never hurt a single hair of you!"

When the American soldier saw Aislin give him a blank look, he gave up in embarrassment. Indeed, asking the scientist to shoot himself for defense can only show that he has reached the most dangerous situation.

After about 30 minutes of travel, the Mars rover finally entered the Pezos Highlands. Black had already seen the shadow of the outpost base, and immediately notified everyone, and they stopped chatting.

As the engine of the rover was turned off, everyone knew that the destination had arrived.

At this moment, the Chinese and American soldiers who were originally chatting relaxedly also restrained their expressions, and were replaced by silence. Under Yang Licheng's order, all of them put on helmets, used breathing bags to provide oxygen, and provided the precious air they needed through hollow air pipes. Oxygen, although the breathing bag is a bit small, the oxygen contained in it can supply up to 15 hours of consumption, and there are enough supplies on the Mars rover to meet the consumption of more than ten people for ten days.

Immediately there was an air valve sound in the car, indicating that the air pressure was changing. After the sound disappeared, the supreme commander Yang Licheng got up and opened the car door with his own hands. He was the first to get off the rover and set foot on the surface of Mars, followed by the deputy commander Blake. Get off the cab, and the members of the armed tactical team get out of the car one by one.

"Ladies first!" Ren Hong laughed.

Aislin nodded with a smile, and then walked to the door of the car. An American standing next to him took over the scientific equipment, and another Chinese member went up to meet her. Aislin took the other's hand and walked down Mars smoothly. The car, followed by Ren Hong lightly stepped onto the red ground.

"Mars" his eyes circled around. At this moment, the Pezos Heights was upright and the sun was shining brightly. He glanced at the small screen on his left wrist. The temperature on the surface of Mars at this moment was displayed as 23 degrees Celsius, and the temperature difference would widen at night. Above 100 degrees Celsius, the average annual temperature of this planet is around minus 78 degrees Celsius.

It's simply not a place for people to stay.

Seeing that everyone was in place, Yang Licheng gave an order: "Everyone is there, the tactical team stay alert, pay attention to the movement around, let's go!"

The deputy team Blake took the lead with two Chinese and an American, Ren Hong carried the scientific equipment that he carried with him, and Aislin was empty-handed. Ladies have privileges. Two scientists were in the center of the armed tactical team. The armed members with guns launched a mobile defensive formation, and nine of them maintained their shooting positions.

The eleven-member team headed towards the base of the outpost at a leisurely pace.

"Oh, I bought it!" Aislin couldn't help trembling slightly when she saw the scene of the outpost base for the first time.

The entire base was dead silent, without any breath of life. They were humans who came here again after more than half a year. The solar panels were crumbling, some of them were broken, and all the equipment had been left unattended for more than half a year. , has been covered with a thick layer of red dust.

An American Star-Spangled Banner was lying on the ground covered with thick dust. Vice-team Blake Seton picked up the flag, shook the gravel on the surface and planted it on the red soil again. The Star-Spangled Banner fluttered in the wind. At this moment The wind speed in the Pezos Heights is not weak, but the thin air of Mars also makes everyone not feel too much.

The armed team walked through the solar cell field with the highest vigilance, and passed the signal tower. Yang Licheng, who had reached the forefront at some point, suddenly clenched his fist and raised his hand, and everyone stopped moving.

Ren Hong turned his head slightly to look forward, and the information provided by Duncan Jones suddenly appeared in his mind. The red soil in front of him was Dick's body.

Or a relic of Astronaut Dick.

"Wait a minute!" Ren Hong suddenly said to Yang Licheng who was squatting halfway in the position of Dick's remnant.

"Come with me, ma'am." Ren Hong walked forward and came to Yang Licheng's side, "Martian creatures attacked Dick and ate his body, I have to check to see if there are any of these creatures Residue. See if we can collect useful biological samples."

"I'm an expert in this field, leave it to me." Aislin said.

"Okay, but don't expect too much, this place has been abandoned for half a year." Ren Hong reminded seeing the beautiful Aislin who had already started to do something.

Ren Hong, who was half squatting, stood up after a while, went to Yang Licheng and said, "Commander, the first task is to find the black box. We must first find out what happened here that night."

"Black has already led people to investigate inside the base." Yang Licheng said.

Ren Hong looked around: "Although this place has been abandoned for six or seven months, the extent of the damage is only about one-third. It should be able to make the whole base operate again."

Aislin put away the equipment and shook her head helplessly at him. Obviously, after such a long time, even the saliva left by the Martian creatures on the fragments of the spacesuit has long been decomposed under the exposure to the sun and the severe temperature difference.

"We have to find living things." Aislin said, but he added: "But judging from the traces, your guess is correct, it was caused by high-strength acid corrosion."

"Acid-corroding bloodthirsty creatures attack humans," Ren Hong muttered to himself, and suddenly looked at Aislin with a smile: "Could it be alien creatures?"

"This joke is not humorous, Professor Wang." Aislin's face changed when she heard the word "alien". He added: "No, it's not all a joke. I even have a feeling that we are just like the scene in the Alien movie at this moment?"

The pretty blond girl was really taken aback, she couldn't help but feel frightened when she saw the surrounding scene, she said weakly: "Don't scare me, the aliens have hands and feet, they are snake-like reptiles."

"Who knows." Ren Hong shrugged indifferently.

"Well, can I have a gun?"

"Pfft!!! Aren't you a scientist? I protect you!"

"Professor Wang is flirting with girls!"

"Understood." Yang Licheng, who was standing aside, whispered into the communicator, and then glared at the two Chinese and American soldiers who were chatting with smirks, and the two soldiers immediately stood in line.

"Ahem Black sent news that the black box was found and it was well preserved."

"Go and see first!"
