Australia, Northern Territory, Rock Caves.

The dust and sand in the sky were swept up by the wind, and the rustling sound made on the dead grass.

As an uninhabitable part of Australia's vast expanse, it is rarely spotted except for the occasional traveller with the intention of exploring.

However, for now.

A large number of tents are scattered around the cliffs, forming an improvised research base on the edge of the cave.

"Dr. Coranson, can you briefly elaborate on the results of this archaeological discovery?"

A reporter from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) interviews Dr. Coranson, who discovered the remains of the cave.

"Of course."

As an unpopular profession, archaeology has not received much attention from the world.

After all, modern people care more about the messages displayed on the screen in their hands, or the superheroes flying through the sky in steel suits, than the ancient past buried in the dirt.

Especially in Australia, as a country of immigrants.

Because they don't have a deep emotional connection with the land under their feet, they don't have too much enthusiasm for the history of this country.

After all, from a historical point of view, the land under Australia's feet has little relevance to today's Australians. Rather than looking for the history of Australia itself, it is better to look for the history of Europe and the Australians.

For this reason, the ABC did not actually pay much attention to the archaeological research excavated by Colaston.

The vast majority of Australia's media is now focused on the election in the United States, and if it weren't for the fact that Colaston called his team's discovery an unprecedented discovery, or even boasted that it would probably change the definition of human history.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) also does not have a reporter to do the interview.

“…… This is an exciting discovery, we have always had a wrong perception of the land of Australia, according to the current mainstream archaeological view in Australia, the history of Aboriginal people in Australia is 47,000 years ago, but this discovery proves that as early as 65,000 years ago, Australian Aboriginal people have lived on this continent, this result is 18,000 years forward from the current definition of history......

Leading the reporter from ABC TV in front of him, Corason showed the camera the excavation findings of the archaeological team over the past few years.

“…… This is a stone spear made by the ancient aborigines that we found in the cave......"

Pointing to a sharp stone, Colaston's tone was a little excited: "At the same time, we also found the world's oldest edging stone axe technology in the cave, which proves that humans have existed as early as the period when the giant kangaroo on the Australian continent was not extinct, and this discovery has played a very key role not only for Australia, but also for the human origin of the whole world...... This is a significant discovery of global significance. ”

"yes, that's a remarkable discovery."

Looking at the spear tips that Corason was pointing to that were not much different from the stones on the side of the road, the reporter's tone was somewhat weak.

She didn't take so long to come to this place where birds don't poop to shoot the stones.

Sensing the perfunctory expression on the reporter's face, Corason's originally excited expression froze slightly.

He understands the lukewarm reception of archaeology in many studies, and in the eyes of many, the so-called archaeology is nothing more than digging stones and fossils out of the soil.

There is nothing forward-looking, and there are no surprises to speak of.

Why is that? Did Korasen call this archaeological excavation a historic discovery? And ABC TV only politely arranged for an unknown news reporter and filming team to come to the scene for interviews.

Knowing this, Corason's heart became a little uneasy.

He continued to explain the archaeological discovery to the reporter in front of him, but his attitude was already a lot less enthusiastic.

"Doctor, Dr. Colasson......"

In the research base, the reporters of Corason and ABC continued the following interview introductions according to the flow of each other.

From outside the base, the archaeological excavation site? A dusty archaeological researcher rushed in? interrupted the interview.

Raise your palms? Gesture to the cameraman behind him.

The latter put down the camera in his hand with ease? Paused the shooting in his hand.

The reporter turned his head to look at the researcher who interrupted the shooting? A look of displeasure on his face.

And Colaston frowned slightly? Looking at the researcher, he said, "Didn't I already say it, don't disturb me during the interview." ”

For an unpopular professional archaeology researcher? The ABC interview in front of him may be the only time Colasten will appear on television.

Why is that? When he perceives that the nature of the reporters he is interviewing is not high? The main reason for still insisting on going through the interview process.

"I'm sorry, doctor."

Hearing Colaston's slightly dissatisfied rebuke, the researcher immediately apologized.

However, it was still difficult to hide the excited look on his face, and he couldn't wait to say to Corasen in front of him: "But, doctor, you also said that once the stone door in the grotto is in condition, you will ...... it immediately."

"Shut up."

Opening his mouth to stop the researcher in front of him from saying the next thing, Corason turned to look at the ABC reporter next to him and said in an apologetic tone.

"I'm sorry, it looks like the next filming can't go any further, there's a major breakthrough at the archaeological excavation site that requires me to get in, and the part I want to interview is enough for TV with what I just filmed."

Although, my heart is full of expectations for the interview on the TV station.

However, compared to the stone door in the cave, it is undoubtedly insignificant.

Therefore, after hearing the researcher's words, Corason did not hesitate to end the shooting, and made a gesture of invitation to the filming group from ABC in front of him.

Colaston had a hunch that the stone door he found in the cave must be hiding a huge secret, and this secret would be the key to his success.

Therefore, without taking this discovery into his hands and deriving the actual research results, Corason must be careful that the secret of the stone gate is discovered.

Especially the media coverage.

"Dr. Colaston, I seem to hear the word Shimen?"

However, Colaston clearly underestimated the reporter's keen observation of the news.

After noticing the obvious changes in Corason, the original nonchalant expression on the ABC reporter's face immediately changed, and he asked Corasen with an excited face.

"Can you tell us what kind of connection this stone gate has with the current archaeological excavation?"

Frowning, looking at the camera in front of him and the reporter who was chasing after him as if he was alive, Corason's heart was a little flustered, but he still tried to explain: "At present, I don't know the results of this discovery, and it will take more in-depth excavation to get results, so I can't say that I will announce our archaeological research findings at the right time in the future, and now, I need to enter the cave, and the members of the archaeological team are still waiting for me." ”

After answering the reporter in front of him with a simulated answer, Colaston left the base in a panic and entered the protected cave not far away.

"What are we going to do next?"

Watching Colaston's back disappear from the camera's lens, the cameraman lowered the camera on his shoulder and asked the reporter next to him.

"Of course it's to keep shooting, don't you see that this Corason is obviously hiding something."

Looking back from the direction of the cave, the reporter replied without hesitation.

"However, judging from the attitude I just showed, it is obvious that the other party does not welcome me to continue shooting."

Frowning, as a perennial location videographer, he had clearly noticed Corason's wariness of the media.

"The more he resisted, the more the discovery in the cave proved that the discovery in the cave had the value of journalism, and that no one could stop the journalist's freedom of reporting."

Giving herself a high-sounding reason, the female reporter walked in the direction of the cave with the camera without hesitation.

……

Inside a dark cavern.

A large number of artificial light sources illuminate the interior.

When Colaston and the researchers arrived at the location of the stone gate, they were greeted by a large stone gate covered in various unknown marks.

Through this period of excavation work, the archaeological team has successfully cleaned the rock wrapped in the stone gate, revealing what the stone gate should be.

"This ...... This ......"

However, as he looked at the textures or symbols on the stone door in front of him, the expression on his face became extremely shocked and obsessed.

"Judging from the radioactive isotopes of the rocks on the stone gate, these rocks have existed for tens of thousands of years, which means that the existence of this stone gate may be the same era as the aborigines found in Australia in the cave, or even longer, the stone gate already existed."

"Doctor, can you see what the symbols on these stone doors represent?"

Also obsessed with the stone gate, one of the researchers in the archaeological team couldn't help but ask Corason.

"It's impossible to tell yet."

Shaking his head, Corason's gaze swept over the symbols on the stone gate one by one, and his expression was full of confusion: "These symbols do not belong to any kind of writing found in archaeological history, and even the Aboriginal symbols of the Australian continent in the past are not similar, it is obvious that this is a brand new symbol, or it represents a new civilization unknown to human beings." ”

Thinking that a brand-new ancient civilization was likely to be discovered and named by him, Corason's expression became extremely excited.

The excavation of a new civilization is simply the greatest discovery of the career of archaeological history and archaeological researchers.

"A brand new civilization?!"

However, just as Corason was excited, an equally shocked and familiar voice rang out from the cavern behind him.

"How did you get in!"

Hearing this, Corason quickly turned his head.

I saw that the reporter from ABC TV was looking at the archaeological team in the cave and the stone gate with surprised eyes, and behind the reporter, the cameraman was clearly filming everything in front of him through the camera on his shoulder.

"This is not the place you should be!"

Seeing the ABC reporter appear, the expression on Corason's face immediately became angry.

He looked at the camera, and subconsciously reached out to stop it.

"This is an important finding, which cannot be published yet, and must be kept secret."

If the stone door found in the cave is revealed, Corason can imagine that a large number of archaeologists will flood the cave, and the success of the entire archaeological team will be in vain.

After all, the entire team in front of them only discovered the primitive cave and the stone door in it, and did not take a closer look at it.

"You're hindering the filming, Doctor, and journalists have the right to report facts to the public."

In the face of Corathan, who made an obstacle, the female reporter shouted not to be outdone.

She stepped forward to stop Corason from moving to the camera behind her, shouting for freedom of the press.

With the female reporter in the way, the cameraman behind her carried the slightly heavy camera on his shoulder, avoided Corason's arm with nimble steps, and rushed in the direction of Shimen without hesitation, as a professional videographer, he obviously knew how to shoot shocking images.

Standing at a distance of more than ten meters from the stone gate, although the entire stone gate can also be filmed, the picture of the camera is obviously a little blurry.

He needed to get closer and shoot a close-up of the stone gate.

"Stop him, stop this damn videographer for me!"

Looking like a slippery loach, the cameraman who had already rushed to the stone gate in a blink of an eye, Corasen shouted almost hoarsely.

Hearing Colaston's shout, the researchers of the archaeological team immediately began to surround the cameraman with hindsight.

But apparently, for an experienced videographer, the researcher's movements were a little sluggish.

Easily dodging a few researchers rushing over, the cameraman lifted the camera on his shoulder, and the entire stone gate was clearly reflected in the lens of the camera in an almost ninety-degree manner. Behind him, a researcher slows down and reaches out to block the camera's lens.

However, the cameraman's face still has a victorious smile on his face.

He's got all the shots he needs.

Just as the cameraman was holding on to the camera on his shoulder with great ambition, thinking about how to protect the content he was shooting safely.

The mysterious symbols carved into the huge stone door began to glow faintly.

At first, the light was dim and not easily noticed.

But soon, when all the symbols started flashing.

In the cave, the archaeological team and ABC reporters, who were originally in a mess, also subconsciously stopped their movements.
