Chapter 220: The Wall of Life

The Ark also activated its shielding field, docked above the Earth's orbit in the Pacific Rim plane, and dropped Qiao Lu and the Wandering Earth Survey Team around the world through an airdrop capsule disguised as a small meteorite.

Qiao Lu, Liu Peiqiang and Bumblebee sat together in the same drop pod again, and this familiar scene can't help but remind people of the last experience in the Marvel Universe.

After Wang Lei was assigned to the expeditionary force, the three of them became the new iron triangle of the Wandering Earth Survey Group.

Outside the drop capsule, they can already see the blue surface of the earth, but they will definitely not mistake this place for a wandering earth, after all, the 10,000-seat planetary engine is clearly visible even in space.

But instead, another spectacular project appeared in the field of vision of the Wandering Earth Investigation Team.

It was a massive project called the "Wall of Life" that surrounded the entire Pacific Ocean.

This reinforced concrete Pacific Rim Wall can be seen with the naked eye even in space, and it immediately attracted the attention of the investigation team.

Therefore, the primary goal of this landing is to investigate what these coastal walls are for.

Jolu had ulterior motives to choose the landing site in Sydney, which, according to the original movie plot of "Pacific Rim", was the first place where the wall of life was breached by monsters.

He planned to take a look here, and if he was lucky, he might be able to see the most important alien monsters in the Pacific Rim here, as well as the super-large mecha hunters built by humans.

In this way, you can also get the fresh blood and body tissue samples of these alien monsters as quickly as possible, which are very important for the actions of the wandering earth.

"Countdown to the launch of the drop pod, 3, 2, 1 - launch!"

A feeling of weightlessness suddenly enveloped Qiao Lu's body, and the drop capsule was falling rapidly, and it would not begin to slow down until it entered the atmosphere.

Although Qiao Lu has experienced this kind of thing many times, there is still no way to get used to it completely.

Smashing into the atmosphere from above Earth's orbit until it completely lands on the ground is a thrilling process anyway.

The outside of the drop capsule has been completely covered by flames, which is the high temperature generated by friction with the atmosphere, and it is also the test that every drop capsule must go through.

After the flames finally cleared, real-time footage began to appear below the drop pod, allowing the personnel inside to determine if there was a mistake in their landing position.

At first, there are only dense clouds in the picture, and it is not until the altitude drops to a certain level that it suddenly becomes clear.

At this time, the entire Sydney part of the Pacific Rim Wall of Life finally appeared in front of Qiao Lu and the others.

Built near the famous Sydney Opera House, this coastal wall is expected to be tens of metres high, even higher than the Sydney Opera House.

The thickness of the city wall is comparable to that of the Three Gorges Dam, and there are a large number of supporting structures behind it. At the top of the wall, there were several huge shore defense cannons, all aimed at the side facing the Pacific Ocean.

"What the hell are they building this thing against?" Liu Peiqiang couldn't help but ask.

Modern warfare has long proven that stationary fortifications like the Maginot Line do not work every time, so it is undoubtedly a joke to use such coastal defensive walls against human navies.

Since it is not to resist the human navy, what exactly can this useless coastal defense wall defend against?

Qiao Lu just said lightly: "We'll find out soon." ”

The drop pod landed on the outskirts of Sydney, leaving behind a crater of no small size.

The system soon appears with a prompt: "Land on Pacific Rim Earth and gain 500 civilization points." ”

Qiao Lu didn't have time to pay attention to such a small civilization point reward for the time being, and immediately asked Bumblebee to start recovering the parts of the airdrop pod.

After the drop pod was completely absorbed by the bumblebee, he transformed into a classic yellow Chevrolet Camaro sports car, carrying Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang in the direction of Sydney.

At the same time, a deep-sea beast emerges from a wormhole deep in the Pacific Ocean, and after letting out a vicious roar, it begins to swim in the direction of Sydney.

The anomaly in the wormhole was also detected by the wandering geologists on the Ark, who immediately informed the various teams of the investigation team that had successfully landed on the ground:

"Attention of all units, an unknown biological phenomenon has been detected near the wormhole, and its life characteristics do not belong to any kind of earth creature! The target is heading to Australia, so be aware of the possible alien creature attack and do your intelligence gathering! ”

Hearing the news, Qiao Lu knew that he had caught up.

The first alien monster breaches the Pacific Rim Coastal Wall is about to take place in Sydney, and now that the monster has appeared, it should be heading straight for Sydney!

Qiao Lu clenched the steering wheel with both hands and whispered:

"Liu Peiqiang, sit tight, I want to rush over as fast as possible!"

Before the words fell, Qiao Lu stepped on the accelerator to the limit, and in an instant, the Chevrolet sports car transformed into a yellow lightning bolt and raced on the road.

Under Qiao Lu's full acceleration, only Liu Peiqiang, who has undergone strict astronaut training, can withstand it.

But even he couldn't help but say: "Riding in your car always reminds me of when I was training as an astronaut, if Wang Lei, you must not drive like this." ”

"Don't worry, I obey the traffic rules most of the time."

And now, it's that time!

Qiao Lu's rapid rush naturally attracted the attention of the Sydney police, but these traffic police couldn't keep up with Qiao Lu's speed at all, and they were always thrown away by Qiao Lu after a few rapid drifts and corners.

With Qiao Lu's driving ability, he can stage a scene of extreme car theft in the neighborhood in minutes, not to mention that he is not driving an ordinary Chevrolet sports car now!

It took less than an hour for the two of them to get from the suburbs to the vicinity of the Sydney Opera House, park Bumblebee in the underground parking lot, and then ascend to the rooftop of a nearby building to look out at the Wall of Life not far away.

It overlooks the entire Sydney Opera House, and you can also see the defensive walls of the Pacific Rim that have been breached by monsters for the first time.

A perfect observation point, the monster has not yet arrived, and Qiao Lu has finally caught up.

Liu Peiqiang asked puzzledly, "Qiao Lu, what's wrong?" Is there anything behind this wall? ”

Qiao Lu replied: "Didn't the communication just say that the unknown creature is rushing to Australia, and Sydney Harbour is the most densely populated place, so I guess it will land from here." ”

In fact, there is no need to guess, because the unknown biological signal detected by the Ark is straight to Sydney!
