I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 1544: Unexpected discovery

In the Star Ring City Space Command Center, the staff sitting in front of the computers are also waiting for news from Europa.

Although there is a quantum communication device installed at the outpost on Europa, there is still a slight delay in communication. At the moment when the picture of the drilling platform being blown off came, almost everyone in the aerospace command center held his breath.

About half a minute later, the staff silently took off the headset, and many people gave a depressed sigh.

Different from the feelings of frustration and remorse in the hearts of these researchers, looking at the drilling platform that was blown up in the holographic screen, Jiang Chen only felt a pain in his heart.

In such a "blowout", at least more than two billion yuan had been hit, and it also meant that more than a month of efforts at Europa's outpost vanished.

The rising seawater will fill back the cracks that were difficult to drill in a short time, and will be refrozen in a short time. Fortunately, the colonists activated the perforating device in time, leaving the drill bit and the deep-sea robot behind the drill bit under the ice cap. This effort for more than a month has not yielded anything.

Just thinking that most of the colonial Europa ’s expenses were borne by other major member countries, Jiang Chen felt a little bit better. At least he was not alone.

"Drilling water is a wrong choice. The pressure of the seabed is unimaginably high. When our drill bit is about two hundred meters away from the bottom of the ice sheet, the underground ocean will directly burst the lower ice sheet, which caused Blowout phenomenon. "

From the perspective of an orbiting satellite, looking at the giant umbrella-shaped fountain in the holographic screen, Kerwin's brows were locked tightly, and he was lost in thought.

"How is the situation of the deep-sea robot?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Operating conditions are good, you can start when the ocean current environment is stable." Hearing Jiang Chen's question, Kerwin extended his finger to the line of parameters in the lower right corner of the holographic screen. "Here is the pressure environment. Dramatic changes, our deep-sea robots are probably "

"Will it be swallowed by a big fish?"

Kelvin froze for a moment, and then found Jiang Chen joking with him in a teasing tone, so he said with a smile.

"Non-existent, in such a primitive ecosystem, there can be no organisms that are too large in size, otherwise there is a serious problem whether it is the consumption of organic matter or the supply of heat. It is no exaggeration to say that only one whale is needed , It will crush the entire Europa ecosystem. "

"That's not good," Jiang Chen smiled, looking at the changing parameters. "When we first set foot on Mars, don't we think that there is a desert? But under the sand, always Something weird can be drilled out. "

Before revealing the truth, no one can guarantee that his inferences will be correct.

Of course, from the investor ’s point of view, he still hopes that there is nothing weird under Europa, otherwise there will be no benefits other than increasing the cost of the Star Ring Trade to develop Europa , This solar system is too busy.

"Are you a crow mouth--eh!"

Knocked gently on the head, Lin Ling covered her white forehead and glared at Jiang Chen with a blow.

Jiang Chen, who knew he was not working hard at all, directly ignored Lin Ling ’s flamboyant reaction, pretending not to see it, and continued with the topic just now.

"What about vital signs? Should we have done this monitoring?"

Looking at the two awkwardly, Kerwin finally chose to ignore the "little tail" that followed Jiang Chen ’s butt, coughing and continuing, "According to our launch on Europa Of life signal detection waves show that there are indeed traces of suspicious life sources on the seabed. However, because of the distance problem, it is still uncertain about the authenticity of those life sources, because ... "

"Because the life signal detection device is only effective for mammals and birds, it has a very poor effect on arthropods, chords, and other temperature-changing animals, and the effect on plants is almost negligible. Am I right?" Lin Ling cocked her **** proudly, a look of greatness to herself.

Kerwin gave Lin Ling a surprised look, apparently not expecting a girl her age would understand so much.

In terms of age alone, this one is probably slightly older than his daughter. Of course, such an idea arises because he does not know such things as cyborgs. If he is known about Lin Ling ’s real age, I am afraid his expression may be more exciting than it is now.

"Don't care about her, let her go for herself." Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Ling helplessly. Recently, this guy was abnormal, he didn't know what to say about her, so he coughed lightly. Looking at the numbers on the holographic screen that continue to beat, he said, "Is there any good solution? Questions about the water source in the colony."

"I will discuss with the engineers of the future heavy industry to see if we can solve the blowout problem through engineering design." After bowing his head for a moment, Kerwin reluctantly said, "Before solving this problem, continue Use the method of electrically heating ice cubes. "

Electric heating is the most energy-consuming method of water extraction, which means that Europa, which is not already abundant in energy, has to find a way to solve the problem of electricity. Now we can only hope for Jupiter next to us. This gas planet emits 18,000 times the amount of radiation. Under the bombardment of various high-energy particles, there should be a lot of tritium on the surface of Europa.

In the meantime, the ocean current environment near the robot has finally stabilized.

The colonists far away on Europa started the deep sea robot execution program.

The sphere wrapped in titanium alloy expelled a string of bubbles from the surrounding gap, and the blade-like stack of armor contracted inward from the tail, exposing the propeller hidden in the armor, and began to move forward as the motor started Goes on.

With Jiang Chen, it did n’t take long for the video frame in the lower right corner of the holographic screen to light up. This picture comes from the front camera of the deep-sea robot, and the only area that can be seen is only the one illuminated by the searchlight.

Lin Ling opened her eyes slightly and stared at the screen. Although Europa had also been colonized and developed in the 22nd century, that distant thing obviously had nothing to do with her lying on the bed all the year round.

"Will the Cyborg feel uncomfortable?" Jiang Chen whispered.

"Ill?" Lin Ling tilted her head.

"Deep-sea phobia." Jiang Chen said, "Although I don't have it, I still feel a kind of instinctive discomfort while watching the lens of the picture gradually dive."

"You should ask Lilith in such words," Lin Ling gave Jiang Chen a blank look.

Just as the two whispered and whispered, a light suddenly appeared in the picture. The faint light did not come from the beam of the searchlight, but from the deeper seabed. The people at the outpost turned off the searchlight on the deep-sea robot, adjusted the output power of the motor, and slowly moved to the light source below.

When I saw the behemoth that appeared in the picture, everyone in the command room made a surprising sound. As for Lin Ling next to her, her eyes bulged out.

Looking at the giant in the screen, Jiang Chen ’s pupils contracted slightly and murmured to himself.

"... Why did it appear here."
