Inside a grotto shaped like a tomb.
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.
"What do you think these Martians... could be? I mean in the biological sense."
Only Professor Aubrey whispered, "It's like the entrance to hell." After receiving no response, he lowered his head in silence.
The most serious earthquake occurred on Mars since human observation. Even the Mars scientific research station several kilometers away could clearly feel the shaking of the earth.
"I don't know, but we can rule out mammals first. The gravity environment here is not conducive to bone development and calcium accumulation. Even if there are mammals in the ecosystem here, their size should not be large, and it is even more difficult to develop a wide enough The skull... In comparison, invertebrates should have an advantage, especially arthropods, which will be larger than those on Earth and can theoretically have larger brains to accommodate more neurons."
After standing firm, Schultz was the first to react and grabbed his shoulder, trying to drag him away. However, he vomited blood and discovered that this guy was acting crazy and had no intention of leaving at all. No.
After hearing the uncertain statement, Professor Aubrey sighed, threw the multifunctional shovel aside, leaned against the rock wall next to him, and sat down on the ground.
Professor Vernal, who was squatting next to a square stone, stood up slowly from the ground with his hands on his knees.
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
"Are you the hamster on the hamster wheel we're like now?"
"Didn't you say that you would be fine if you were swallowed by that collapsed tunnel?"
"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Looking at Professor Vernal standing up, Schultz, who was standing aside, lowered his arms across his chest, took two steps forward and asked.
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."
After a long time, he asked.
"Shelter?"
"If conditions permit, I would like to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"
Especially for those who are terminally ill, it is a blessing. When the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have one more option to survive even though they have to be separated from their loved ones...
"Did you find any clues?"
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
"Are you the hamster on the hamster wheel we're like now?"
He snatched the multifunctional shovel from his hand and threw it away.
"Of course... the value of the relics excavated here is not small. It can be described as a bumper harvest." With an excited expression on his face, Professor Vernal looked at Schultz and suddenly asked a question, "Have you heard of it?" The legend of the mummy?”
this day.
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet. The feeling of the earth shaking came from all directions, even the tree standing at the entrance of the cave. The stone pillars groaned under the weight and began to collapse to the side.
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.
…
Of course he had heard of this matter, and he even remembered that the dormant bacteria caused quite a stir at the time.
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
Although they couldn't find any clues about extraterrestrial civilization, at least they survived. Maybe Congress will be disappointed, but Aubrey believes that if he died inside, he would cause greater trouble to his country and the people of the world.
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
"I've heard a little bit...what's wrong?"
And as long as he is still alive, everything is easy to say!
Only Professor Aubrey whispered, "It's like the entrance to hell." After receiving no response, he lowered his head in silence.
"We have to get out of here!"
And as long as he is still alive, everything is easy to say!
After standing firm, Schultz was the first to react and grabbed his shoulder, trying to drag him away. However, he vomited blood and discovered that this guy was acting crazy and had no intention of leaving at all. No.
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day. Therefore, in order to prevent the body from rotting, the pharaohs would order their servants to empty out their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death. Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
"I see… "
Glancing back, Schultz, who was still frightened, suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
His Adam's apple moved up and down. Schultz looked at the square stones and said with a strange expression, "You mean...the purpose of these 'sarcophagi' is to prevent the remains from decaying?"
"Obviously, they failed," Professor Vernal shrugged, as if he had guessed what Schulz was thinking, and continued, "Although they made some attempts to save themselves, their extinction was almost It is destined that dormancy with a time scale of hundreds of years is nothing more than a death struggle in the face of billions of time. The mother star has lost the protection of its magnetic field, its atmosphere, and even its ocean... Even the most advanced civilization , and also need soil to survive.”
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
"Of course it's impossible," Professor Vernal smiled and continued, "If it is for preservation reasons, it is obviously the most unwise choice to store the body in a metal container that is easily oxidized. Let's assume that billions of years ago Mars has oxygen resources that are almost the same as or even more abundant than those of Earth, and the civilization here has the technology to dig such a huge project on the seabed several kilometers deep. It is impossible for them not to even understand such basic chemical principles."
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day. Therefore, in order to prevent the body from rotting, the pharaohs would order their servants to empty out their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death. Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
The creepy feeling made him shudder.
"I don't know, but we can rule out mammals first. The gravity environment here is not conducive to bone development and calcium accumulation. Even if there are mammals in the ecosystem here, their size should not be large, and it is even more difficult to develop a wide enough The skull...

Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
No one wants to die, including himself.
There is no point in staying here other than to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
"Farke?! Come again?"
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
I saw it wasn't just them.
"Where's Lu Zhou! Where is he?!"
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
As he said that, the excitement on Professor Vernal's face became more intense.
Lomonov: "...probably?"
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
"That's right." Looking at Schultz with a look of surprise on his face, Professor Vernal nodded and continued, "When an irreversible disaster occurred on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins... at least It was an iron coffin billions of years ago, and then it was dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up one day. You should have heard of it, the cryo-sleep technology that is very popular on the earth now seems to use the X-0172 bacteria The Yankees brought it back from Mars.”
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
No one wants to die, including himself.
But Schultz still didn't understand.
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
"Shelter?"
"...Everything here is very interesting. It is like the pyramid of Martian civilization. By excavating them, we may be able to restore the reason why Mars lost its magnetic field, and what the Martians living here did at the last moment of their lives. What attempts have been made to save it? Whether it is understanding the history of billions of years ago or our own future, these precious relics have great enlightenment significance."
Upon hearing the statement about this cycle, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Professor Lomonov's face.
"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
"Farke?! Come again?"
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
"If we stay here any longer, we will all become specimens ourselves!"
"We have to get out of here!"
"That's right." Looking at Schultz with a look of surprise on his face, Professor Vernal nodded and continued, "When an irreversible disaster occurred on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins... at least It was an iron coffin billions of years ago, and then it was dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up one day.

"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Small rocks and dust continued to fall from the roof of the cave, hitting the two men's heads and shoulders.
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
No one wants to die, including himself.
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.
Schultz nodded, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"I've heard a little bit...what's wrong?"
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
Of course he had heard of this matter, and he even remembered that the dormant bacteria caused quite a stir at the time.
Small rocks and dust continued to fall from the roof of the cave, hitting the two men's heads and shoulders.
"How do I know?" Professor Aubrey replied tremblingly, his whole body shaking, "I'm not his bodyguard, let alone isn't he with you?!"
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet. The feeling of the earth shaking came from all directions, even the tree standing at the entrance of the cave. The stone pillars groaned under the weight and began to collapse to the side.
After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
“The emergence of civilization is marked by fire and the use of tools, but essentially it is the ability to process and communicate information.”
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
I always feel that the collapse of these tunnels seems a bit unusual.
"I don't know, but we can rule out mammals first. The gravity environment here is not conducive to bone development and calcium accumulation. Even if there are mammals in the ecosystem here, their size should not be large, and it is even more difficult to develop a wide enough The skull...

The most serious earthquake occurred on Mars since human observation. Even the Mars scientific research station several kilometers away could clearly feel the shaking of the earth.
As he said this, there was another violent shock.
I saw it wasn't just them.
Especially for those who are terminally ill, it is a blessing. When the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have one more option to survive even though they have to be separated from their loved ones...
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
After a long time, he asked.
But Schultz still didn't understand.
"Obviously, they failed," Professor Vernal shrugged, as if he had guessed what Schulz was thinking, and continued, "Although they made some attempts to save themselves, their extinction was almost It is destined that dormancy with a time scale of hundreds of years is nothing more than a death struggle in the face of billions of time. The mother star has lost the protection of its magnetic field, its atmosphere, and even its ocean... Even the most advanced civilization , and also need soil to survive.”
He had no other choice but to run forward with all his strength...
Especially for those who are terminally ill, it is a blessing. When the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have one more option to survive even though they have to be separated from their loved ones...
After standing firm, Schultz was the first to react and grabbed his shoulder, trying to drag him away. However, he vomited blood and discovered that this guy was acting crazy and had no intention of leaving at all. No.
Except for Academician Lu...
"Conservation of energy? Of course it is conservation," Professor Aubrey used the multi-function shovel in his hand to draw random marks on the ground, sighed and continued, "The motion state of matter has not changed at all, and the energy has not changed either. The order in three-dimensional space is disrupted. If you can't understand standard Euclidean space, you should understand the hamster wheel, right?"
After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
"Didn't you say that you would be fine if you were swallowed by that collapsed tunnel?"
The collapsed tunnel behind them was getting closer and closer. The two people, whose legs were not very convenient, had expressions of despair on their faces.
"If conditions permit, I would like to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.

The mother star has lost the protection of its magnetic field, its atmosphere, and even its ocean... Even the most advanced civilization , and also need soil to survive.”
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
…
Turning his gaze to the shaking hole, he clenched it tightly with his fists, and a trace of determination suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day. Therefore, in order to prevent the body from rotting, the pharaohs would order their servants to empty out their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death. Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
"What the hell are you thinking!?"
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.
After a long time, he asked.
What he wants to ask is, if this is really the case, is it necessary to continue to move forward
As he said that, the excitement on Professor Vernal's face became more intense.
"Grass… "
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
If it had been one second later, they might have been left inside forever...
"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
"What do you think these Martians... could be? I mean in the biological sense."
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
Lomonov: "...probably?"

June 10th.
"Then you go back first—"
“The emergence of civilization is marked by fire and the use of tools, but essentially it is the ability to process and communicate information.”
"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
His Adam's apple moved up and down. Schultz looked at the square stones and said with a strange expression, "You mean...the purpose of these 'sarcophagi' is to prevent the remains from decaying?"
Having said this, Professor Vernal shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
"Shelter?"
"Then why are you running away?!"
"Of course, all this is just speculation. Even if all the prerequisites are met, the birth of civilization is full of coincidences. Just looking at the two samples of ants and bees, it is still possible for arthropods to evolve to coordinate large groups and of a social system engaged in more intensive productive activities.”
And it was on the same day.
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
"Exit! There's an exit ahead! Hurry!"
"Of course... the value of the relics excavated here is not small. It can be described as a bumper harvest." With an excited expression on his face, Professor Vernal looked at Schultz and suddenly asked a question, "Have you heard of it?" The legend of the mummy?”

As he said that, the excitement on Professor Vernal's face became more intense.
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
"Wait a minute, let me get a few more samples back..."
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
"It can be said that," Professor Aubrey said, "This space is cyclic. It is impossible to say that the path we are walking on now is the one we have walked before."
"Grass… "
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
After standing firm, Schultz was the first to react and grabbed his shoulder, trying to drag him away. However, he vomited blood and discovered that this guy was acting crazy and had no intention of leaving at all. No.

"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
"I'm going to find Academician Lu."
…
He punched the steering wheel hard, and Fan Tong, who gradually slowed down the car, suddenly hit his forehead on it, and his shoulders shook as if twitching.
And it was on the same day.
And it was on the same day.
He had no other choice but to run forward with all his strength...
"If conditions permit, I would like to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"

Schultz nodded, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
No, to be precise, it was an intuition.

Lomonov: "...probably?"
Of course he had heard of this matter, and he even remembered that the dormant bacteria caused quite a stir at the time.
Just when the excited Professor Vernal was describing his fanciful idea to the confused Schulz, the earth-shaking tremor suddenly came from beneath their feet again.
No one wants to die, including himself.
"We have to get out of here!"
The creepy feeling made him shudder.
No one wants to die, including himself.
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.

"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
There is no point in staying here other than to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.
Except for Academician Lu...
"Farke?! Come again?"
"There is no earthquake, and the road under our feet has not even changed. If my inference is correct, nothing will happen even if we are swallowed up by the collapsed tunnel. It will just change from a three-dimensional space with the moved spaces." The coordinates are moved to another three-dimensional coordinate."
And it was on the same day.
"We have to get out of here!"
"What the hell are you thinking!?"
"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
However, just when he was about to ask this question, the ground suddenly shook violently. Professor Aubrey was so frightened that he stood up from the ground and looked at the rubble shaking from the ceiling and the possibility of collapse at any time. tunnel, run away.
After standing firm, Schultz was the first to react and grabbed his shoulder, trying to drag him away. However, he vomited blood and discovered that this guy was acting crazy and had no intention of leaving at all. No.

Lomonov: "...probably?"
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."

Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
Professor Vernal, who was squatting next to a square stone, stood up slowly from the ground with his hands on his knees.
Almost as soon as the two of them passed through the spacious grotto and emerged from the hole on the other side, the tunnel behind them closed like an avalanche.
However, just when he was about to ask this question, the ground suddenly shook violently. Professor Aubrey was so frightened that he stood up from the ground and looked at the rubble shaking from the ceiling and the possibility of collapse at any time. tunnel, run away.

The collapsed tunnel behind them was getting closer and closer. The two people, whose legs were not very convenient, had expressions of despair on their faces.
"Are you crazy?! With the scale of this earthquake, I'm afraid the entire mountain range will suffer!"
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
"That's right." Looking at Schultz with a look of surprise on his face, Professor Vernal nodded and continued, "When an irreversible disaster occurred on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins... at least It was an iron coffin billions of years ago, and then it was dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up one day.

"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
"Didn't you say that you would be fine if you were swallowed by that collapsed tunnel?"
"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day. Therefore, in order to prevent the body from rotting, the pharaohs would order their servants to empty out their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death. Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
"Exit! There's an exit ahead! Hurry!"
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
He had no other choice but to run forward with all his strength...
No, to be precise, it was an intuition.
"Obviously, they failed," Professor Vernal shrugged, as if he had guessed what Schulz was thinking, and continued, "Although they made some attempts to save themselves, their extinction was almost It is destined that dormancy with a time scale of hundreds of years is nothing more than a death struggle in the face of billions of time. The mother star has lost the protection of its magnetic field, its atmosphere, and even its ocean... Even the most advanced civilization , and also need soil to survive.”
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
There is no point in staying here other than to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.
"You are confused," Professor Lomonov complained, "What is the standard Euclidean space? And what about the interference of four-dimensional matter in three-dimensional space... What does this have to do with earthquakes."
…
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
"I'm going to find Academician Lu."
About the same time, in another tunnel.
Upon hearing the statement about this cycle, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Professor Lomonov's face.
I can’t care about that much anymore.
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
"We have to get out of here!"
"Of course it's impossible," Professor Vernal smiled and continued, "If it is for preservation reasons, it is obviously the most unwise choice to store the body in a metal container that is easily oxidized. Let's assume that billions of years ago Mars has oxygen resources that are almost the same as or even more abundant than those of Earth, and the civilization here has the technology to dig such a huge project on the seabed several kilometers deep. It is impossible for them not to even understand such basic chemical principles."
He punched the steering wheel hard, and Fan Tong, who gradually slowed down the car, suddenly hit his forehead on it, and his shoulders shook as if twitching.
"I see… "
"Then you go back first—"
Looking at Professor Vernal standing up, Schultz, who was standing aside, lowered his arms across his chest, took two steps forward and asked.
"I'm going to find Academician Lu."
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
But Schultz still didn't understand.
Upon hearing the statement about this cycle, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Professor Lomonov's face.
Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
No one wants to die, including himself.
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
"If conditions permit, I would like to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"
Except for Academician Lu...
Schultz nodded, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Theory is one thing, experiment is another! What's more, I'm just guessing, do you dare to risk your own life!? Shete, stop talking nonsense and run away!"
Lomonov: "...probably?"
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet. The feeling of the earth shaking came from all directions, even the tree standing at the entrance of the cave. The stone pillars groaned under the weight and began to collapse to the side.
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
After hearing the uncertain statement, Professor Aubrey sighed, threw the multifunctional shovel aside, leaned against the rock wall next to him, and sat down on the ground.
"Did you find any clues?"
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.
And it was on the same day.
"Of course it's impossible," Professor Vernal smiled and continued, "If it is for preservation reasons, it is obviously the most unwise choice to store the body in a metal container that is easily oxidized. Let's assume that billions of years ago Mars has oxygen resources that are almost the same as or even more abundant than those of Earth, and the civilization here has the technology to dig such a huge project on the seabed several kilometers deep. It is impossible for them not to even understand such basic chemical principles."
"That's right." Looking at Schultz with a look of surprise on his face, Professor Vernal nodded and continued, "When an irreversible disaster occurred on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins... at least It was an iron coffin billions of years ago, and then it was dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up one day. You should have heard of it, the cryo-sleep technology that is very popular on the earth now seems to use the X-0172 bacteria The Yankees brought it back from Mars.”
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
As he said this, there was another violent shock.
"I've heard a little bit...what's wrong?"
"Then you go back first—"
"What the hell are you thinking!?"
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
"Shelter?"
There is no point in staying here other than to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.
"You are confused," Professor Lomonov complained, "What is the standard Euclidean space? And what about the interference of four-dimensional matter in three-dimensional space... What does this have to do with earthquakes."
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
Although they couldn't find any clues about extraterrestrial civilization, at least they survived. Maybe Congress will be disappointed, but Aubrey believes that if he died inside, he would cause greater trouble to his country and the people of the world.
Finally making up his mind, he silently said sorry in his heart, grabbed two oxygen bottles and threw them out of the car door, and then started the Mars rover as fast as he could in his life.
The collapsed tunnel behind them was getting closer and closer. The two people, whose legs were not very convenient, had expressions of despair on their faces.
No, to be precise, it was an intuition.
Lomonov: "...probably?"
"There is no earthquake, and the road under our feet has not even changed. If my inference is correct, nothing will happen even if we are swallowed up by the collapsed tunnel. It will just change from a three-dimensional space with the moved spaces." The coordinates are moved to another three-dimensional coordinate."
What he wants to ask is, if this is really the case, is it necessary to continue to move forward
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
Lomonov: "...probably?"
Upon hearing the statement about this cycle, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Professor Lomonov's face.
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
"It can be said that," Professor Aubrey said, "This space is cyclic. It is impossible to say that the path we are walking on now is the one we have walked before."
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
Lomonov: "...probably?"
"Conservation of energy? Of course it is conservation," Professor Aubrey used the multi-function shovel in his hand to draw random marks on the ground, sighed and continued, "The motion state of matter has not changed at all, and the energy has not changed either. The order in three-dimensional space is disrupted. If you can't understand standard Euclidean space, you should understand the hamster wheel, right?"
"Wait a minute, let me get a few more samples back..."
"...Everything here is very interesting. It is like the pyramid of Martian civilization. By excavating them, we may be able to restore the reason why Mars lost its magnetic field, and what the Martians living here did at the last moment of their lives. What attempts have been made to save it? Whether it is understanding the history of billions of years ago or our own future, these precious relics have great enlightenment significance."
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
"Are you the hamster on the hamster wheel we're like now?"
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day. Therefore, in order to prevent the body from rotting, the pharaohs would order their servants to empty out their internal organs, dry them and wrap them after death. Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
Inside a grotto shaped like a tomb.
The creepy feeling made him shudder.
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
The moment he discovered the bright light, the expression on Professor Aubrey's face froze slightly, and his despair instantly turned into ecstasy.
"It can be said that," Professor Aubrey said, "This space is cyclic. It is impossible to say that the path we are walking on now is the one we have walked before."
He had no other choice but to run forward with all his strength...
I saw it wasn't just them.
"Grass… "
However, the moment he raised his head, he was slightly stunned.
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
Upon hearing the statement about this cycle, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Professor Lomonov's face.
Professor Vernal, who was squatting next to a square stone, stood up slowly from the ground with his hands on his knees.
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
What he wants to ask is, if this is really the case, is it necessary to continue to move forward
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
"Wait a minute, let me get a few more samples back..."
Almost as soon as the two of them passed through the spacious grotto and emerged from the hole on the other side, the tunnel behind them closed like an avalanche.
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
However, just when he was about to ask this question, the ground suddenly shook violently. Professor Aubrey was so frightened that he stood up from the ground and looked at the rubble shaking from the ceiling and the possibility of collapse at any time. tunnel, run away.
If it had been one second later, they might have been left inside forever...
About the same time, in another tunnel.
What he wants to ask is, if this is really the case, is it necessary to continue to move forward
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
Finally making up his mind, he silently said sorry in his heart, grabbed two oxygen bottles and threw them out of the car door, and then started the Mars rover as fast as he could in his life.
"I've heard a little bit...what's wrong?"
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
Just when the excited Professor Vernal was describing his fanciful idea to the confused Schulz, the earth-shaking tremor suddenly came from beneath their feet again.
But Schultz still didn't understand.
"Farke?! Come again?"
Lomonov ran forward with staggering steps and shouted at the top of his lungs.
After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
Of course he had heard of this matter, and he even remembered that the dormant bacteria caused quite a stir at the time.
"I don't know, but we can rule out mammals first. The gravity environment here is not conducive to bone development and calcium accumulation. Even if there are mammals in the ecosystem here, their size should not be large, and it is even more difficult to develop a wide enough The skull... In comparison, invertebrates should have an advantage, especially arthropods, which will be larger than those on Earth and can theoretically have larger brains to accommodate more neurons."
After a long time, he asked.
No one wants to die, including himself.
"It can be said that," Professor Aubrey said, "This space is cyclic. It is impossible to say that the path we are walking on now is the one we have walked before."
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet.

Next to the Mars rover, including the two Chinese people Wang Peng and Fan Tong who had been separated from them earlier, the British archeologist and the German who studied mathematics were also here.
"I did!"
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.

After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
"Then why are you running away?!"
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
"I see… "
What he wants to ask is, if this is really the case, is it necessary to continue to move forward
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"

Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
"How do I know?" Professor Aubrey replied tremblingly, his whole body shaking, "I'm not his bodyguard, let alone isn't he with you?!"
Small rocks and dust continued to fall from the roof of the cave, hitting the two men's heads and shoulders.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
He snatched the multifunctional shovel from his hand and threw it away.
"There is no earthquake, and the road under our feet has not even changed. If my inference is correct, nothing will happen even if we are swallowed up by the collapsed tunnel.

this day.
"The ancient Egyptians believed that the soul would not perish after death. As long as the body was immortal, it would be able to be reborn one day.

Use salt, spices, anointing oil, honey and linen to make a mummy that will last for thousands of years.”
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
Finally making up his mind, he silently said sorry in his heart, grabbed two oxygen bottles and threw them out of the car door, and then started the Mars rover as fast as he could in his life.
Looking at Professor Vernal standing up, Schultz, who was standing aside, lowered his arms across his chest, took two steps forward and asked.
The moment he discovered the bright light, the expression on Professor Aubrey's face froze slightly, and his despair instantly turned into ecstasy.
Glancing back, Schultz, who was still frightened, suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
Professor Vernal, who was squatting next to a square stone, stood up slowly from the ground with his hands on his knees.

Next to the Mars rover, including the two Chinese people Wang Peng and Fan Tong who had been separated from them earlier, the British archeologist and the German who studied mathematics were also here.
"I'm going to find Academician Lu."
Glancing back, Schultz, who was still frightened, suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
I always feel that the collapse of these tunnels seems a bit unusual.
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
"Are you crazy?! With the scale of this earthquake, I'm afraid the entire mountain range will suffer!"
But Schultz still didn't understand.
I can’t care about that much anymore.
The creepy feeling made him shudder.
The creepy feeling made him shudder.

Everyone in the car was silent, and not a word was exchanged on the way back.
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
Just when the excited Professor Vernal was describing his fanciful idea to the confused Schulz, the earth-shaking tremor suddenly came from beneath their feet again.
Except for Academician Lu...
And as long as he is still alive, everything is easy to say!
I saw it wasn't just them.
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
Next to the Mars rover, including the two Chinese people Wang Peng and Fan Tong who had been separated from them earlier, the British archeologist and the German who studied mathematics were also here.
However, the moment he raised his head, he was slightly stunned.
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
"Where's Lu Zhou! Where is he?!"
After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
…
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
However, the moment he raised his head, he was slightly stunned.
But Schultz still didn't understand.
"What do you think these Martians... could be? I mean in the biological sense."
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
June 10th.
…
I saw it wasn't just them.

"Are you the hamster on the hamster wheel we're like now?"
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
Except for Academician Lu...
Turning his gaze to the shaking hole, he clenched it tightly with his fists, and a trace of determination suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Farke?! Come again?"
"Then you go back first—"
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
Seeing Professor Aubrey running out of the cave, Wang Peng took a few steps forward, reached out and grabbed his shoulders, and stared into his eyes with bloodshot eyes.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
Of course he had heard of this matter, and he even remembered that the dormant bacteria caused quite a stir at the time.
"Shelter?"
"I did!"
"Then you go back first—"
"If we stay here any longer, we will all become specimens ourselves!"
The creepy feeling made him shudder.
As he said that, the excitement on Professor Vernal's face became more intense.
As he said this, there was another violent shock.
Next to the Mars rover, including the two Chinese people Wang Peng and Fan Tong who had been separated from them earlier, the British archeologist and the German who studied mathematics were also here.
Professor Aubrey, who was staring directly at him, felt that he even forgot how to breathe for a while.
Especially for those who are terminally ill, it is a blessing. When the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have one more option to survive even though they have to be separated from their loved ones...
Lomonov ran forward with staggering steps and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
"If we stay here any longer, we will all become specimens ourselves!"
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.

Aubrey: "Do you understand?"
"Exit! There's an exit ahead! Hurry!"
"Are you crazy?! With the scale of this earthquake, I'm afraid the entire mountain range will suffer!"
"How do I know?" Professor Aubrey replied tremblingly, his whole body shaking, "I'm not his bodyguard, let alone isn't he with you?!"
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
“…”
"Shelter?"
"I see… "
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
"Obviously, they failed," Professor Vernal shrugged, as if he had guessed what Schulz was thinking, and continued, "Although they made some attempts to save themselves, their extinction was almost It is destined that dormancy with a time scale of hundreds of years is nothing more than a death struggle in the face of billions of time.

Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
His Adam's apple moved up and down. Schultz looked at the square stones and said with a strange expression, "You mean...the purpose of these 'sarcophagi' is to prevent the remains from decaying?"
"Didn't you say that you would be fine if you were swallowed by that collapsed tunnel?"
Turning his gaze to the shaking hole, he clenched it tightly with his fists, and a trace of determination suddenly flashed in his eyes.
…
Lomonov ran forward with staggering steps and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"I can't care so much anymore! He is going to die. Are you going to drag everyone to die with him?!"
Although they couldn't find any clues about extraterrestrial civilization, at least they survived. Maybe Congress will be disappointed, but Aubrey believes that if he died inside, he would cause greater trouble to his country and the people of the world.
"I'm going to find Academician Lu."
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
After a long time, he asked.
Everyone in the car was silent, and not a word was exchanged on the way back.
"Of course, all this is just speculation. Even if all the prerequisites are met, the birth of civilization is full of coincidences. Just looking at the two samples of ants and bees, it is still possible for arthropods to evolve to coordinate large groups and of a social system engaged in more intensive productive activities.”
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
"We have to get out of here!"
"Wait a minute, let me get a few more samples back..."
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.

"I will never explore this kind of place again! Ahem—"
Especially if the death is unclear.
After listening to Professor Aubrey's explanation, Professor Lomonov touched his chin through the helmet of his space suit, nodded thoughtfully and said.
After hearing the uncertain statement, Professor Aubrey sighed, threw the multifunctional shovel aside, leaned against the rock wall next to him, and sat down on the ground.
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
Except for Academician Lu...
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet. The feeling of the earth shaking came from all directions, even the tree standing at the entrance of the cave. The stone pillars groaned under the weight and began to collapse to the side.
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.

"Of course it's impossible," Professor Vernal smiled and continued, "If it is for preservation reasons, it is obviously the most unwise choice to store the body in a metal container that is easily oxidized. Let's assume that billions of years ago Mars has oxygen resources that are almost the same as or even more abundant than those of Earth, and the civilization here has the technology to dig such a huge project on the seabed several kilometers deep. It is impossible for them not to even understand such basic chemical principles."
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
"Of course, all this is just speculation. Even if all the prerequisites are met, the birth of civilization is full of coincidences. Just looking at the two samples of ants and bees, it is still possible for arthropods to evolve to coordinate large groups and of a social system engaged in more intensive productive activities.”
…
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
"You are confused," Professor Lomonov complained, "What is the standard Euclidean space? And what about the interference of four-dimensional matter in three-dimensional space... What does this have to do with earthquakes."
But Schultz still didn't understand.
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
Faced with this sudden question, Schultz was stunned for a moment, and a confused expression gradually appeared on his face.
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."
"I can't care so much anymore! He is going to die. Are you going to drag everyone to die with him?!"
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
"Shet...it seems that my talk was in vain."
"If we stay here any longer, we will all become specimens ourselves!"
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
“The emergence of civilization is marked by fire and the use of tools, but essentially it is the ability to process and communicate information.”
He had no other choice but to run forward with all his strength...
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
Although they couldn't find any clues about extraterrestrial civilization, at least they survived. Maybe Congress will be disappointed, but Aubrey believes that if he died inside, he would cause greater trouble to his country and the people of the world.
Everyone in the car was silent, and not a word was exchanged on the way back.
I always feel that the collapse of these tunnels seems a bit unusual.
"Shelter?"
No one wants to die, including himself.
"Then why are you running away?!"
"Conservation of energy? Of course it is conservation," Professor Aubrey used the multi-function shovel in his hand to draw random marks on the ground, sighed and continued, "The motion state of matter has not changed at all, and the energy has not changed either. The order in three-dimensional space is disrupted. If you can't understand standard Euclidean space, you should understand the hamster wheel, right?"
Especially if the death is unclear.
As he said that, the excitement on Professor Vernal's face became more intense.
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
If it had been one second later, they might have been left inside forever...
He reached out to hold the stone next to him and looked at the gravel and dust shaken from the ceiling. The expression on Professor Vernal's face suddenly changed from ecstasy to horror.
"I see… "
"I see… "
Finally making up his mind, he silently said sorry in his heart, grabbed two oxygen bottles and threw them out of the car door, and then started the Mars rover as fast as he could in his life.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
After finally breaking through the despairing darkness, Professor Aubrey ran out of the tunnel and placed his right hand on the stone pillar at the entrance of the cave, panting hard for a while before he regained his strength.
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
"Farke?! Come again?"
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
"That's right." Looking at Schultz with a look of surprise on his face, Professor Vernal nodded and continued, "When an irreversible disaster occurred on Mars, they sealed themselves in these iron coffins... at least It was an iron coffin billions of years ago, and then it was dormant with the help of special technology, waiting to wake up one day. You should have heard of it, the cryo-sleep technology that is very popular on the earth now seems to use the X-0172 bacteria The Yankees brought it back from Mars.”
There is no point in staying here other than to bury the Martians who died billions of years ago.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
However, the current situation no longer allowed him to think too much.
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
Dodging the rocks rolling down the ridge, Fan Tong used all his strength to press the accelerator to the bottom, racing like a life-defying car, and finally broke out of the pass he passed through without any danger.
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
"If we stay here any longer, we will all become specimens ourselves!"
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
"It's obvious that this is a sanctuary."
"Grass… "
Having said this, Professor Vernal shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
"Then you go back first—"
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
His Adam's apple moved up and down. Schultz looked at the square stones and said with a strange expression, "You mean...the purpose of these 'sarcophagi' is to prevent the remains from decaying?"
Small rocks and dust continued to fall from the roof of the cave, hitting the two men's heads and shoulders.
"What the hell are you thinking!?"
"What the hell are you thinking!?"
If it had been one second later, they might have been left inside forever...
But Schultz still didn't understand.
"I see… "
The moment he discovered the bright light, the expression on Professor Aubrey's face froze slightly, and his despair instantly turned into ecstasy.
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
But now, X-0172 bacteria has changed from a scourge to a popular food in people's eyes.
"Wang Peng hasn't come up yet!"
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.
"Are you the hamster on the hamster wheel we're like now?"
He looked around with squinted eyes, as if what was sitting in front of him at this moment was not a pile of rocks, but a gold mine!
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
Racing all the way in the desert, feeling the aftershocks coming from under the seat cushion, I looked back at the people behind me, with expressions of relief on their faces.
Fan Tong looked at him with wide eyes, as if looking at a madman.
If these things were dormant cabins, why were they eventually lost in the dust of history
And as long as he is still alive, everything is easy to say!
Especially for those who are terminally ill, it is a blessing. When the current medical technology is not enough to cure them, they have one more option to survive even though they have to be separated from their loved ones...
Before these words were finished, everyone standing at the entrance of the cave was staggered by the sudden tremor coming from the soles of their feet. The feeling of the earth shaking came from all directions, even the tree standing at the entrance of the cave. The stone pillars groaned under the weight and began to collapse to the side.
"How do I know?" Professor Aubrey replied tremblingly, his whole body shaking, "I'm not his bodyguard, let alone isn't he with you?!"
But Schultz still didn't understand.
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
"Grass… "
The collapsed tunnel behind them was getting closer and closer. The two people, whose legs were not very convenient, had expressions of despair on their faces.
Rolling rubble rises into the sky along with the sand and dust. It can be clearly seen even from the height of a satellite, let alone through the car window.
He punched the steering wheel hard, and Fan Tong, who gradually slowed down the car, suddenly hit his forehead on it, and his shoulders shook as if twitching.
"If conditions permit, I would like to build a semi-permanent research station here to study these-"
“The emergence of civilization is marked by fire and the use of tools, but essentially it is the ability to process and communicate information.”
Lomonov: "Does this comply with the law of conservation of energy?"
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
"Grass… "
Having said this, Professor Vernal shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
Just when the excited Professor Vernal was describing his fanciful idea to the confused Schulz, the earth-shaking tremor suddenly came from beneath their feet again.
Schultz silently patted him on the shoulder to express comfort.
"I see… "
Finally making up his mind, he silently said sorry in his heart, grabbed two oxygen bottles and threw them out of the car door, and then started the Mars rover as fast as he could in his life.
Lomonov ran forward with staggering steps and shouted at the top of his lungs.
Schultz used all his strength to shake him out of his stupor.
"What do you think these Martians... could be? I mean in the biological sense."
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions changed and they ran frantically towards the Mars rover next to them.
Everyone in the car was silent, and not a word was exchanged on the way back.
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
This time, there was no need for Schultz to remind him. Professor Vernal, who had completely come to his senses, finally realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed towards the nearest exit.
Facing the unimaginable doomsday catastrophe, Schultz was silent for a while.
About the same time, in another tunnel.
"Did you find any clues?"
"So what do you think this place will be like?"
Only Professor Aubrey whispered, "It's like the entrance to hell." After receiving no response, he lowered his head in silence.
“The emergence of civilization is marked by fire and the use of tools, but essentially it is the ability to process and communicate information.”
If it had been one second later, they might have been left inside forever...
But Schultz still didn't understand.
June 10th.
this day.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
June 10th.
I can’t care about that much anymore.
"WTF?! Isn't it once every two hours? It's only been a few minutes, why is it happening again?!"
However, at this moment, a bright light appeared in front of him.
this day.
Only Professor Aubrey whispered, "It's like the entrance to hell." After receiving no response, he lowered his head in silence.
And almost at the moment they escaped, a giant rock wall about ten meters long separated from the towering ridge, and collapsed in a cloud of dust towards the pass they had passed through before.
The most serious earthquake occurred on Mars since human observation. Even the Mars scientific research station several kilometers away could clearly feel the shaking of the earth.
Especially if the death is unclear.
"I've heard a little bit...what's wrong?"
And it was on the same day.
However, the moment he raised his head, he was slightly stunned.
Listening to the roar coming from the communication channel, Fan Tong gritted his teeth and looked back at the passengers sitting in the car.
"Quick! Drive quickly!"
However, the moment he raised his head, he was slightly stunned.
The Mars Research Station lost two outstanding team members...
"Then why are you running away?!"
Although he didn't believe the American's words, Wang Peng finally let go of Professor Aubrey's shoulders.
"We have to get out of here!"
