After feeling that his sight had disappeared for a while, Qiao Lu lowered his shield and lifted his guard.

It's impossible to determine whether the other party is retreating or has other plans, but it is clear that his team has been discovered, and the next action may be even more dangerous, and it is not the time to eat barbecue in a good way.

Qiao Lu hurriedly informed Liu Peiqiang and Wang Lei of the matter, and the three of them discussed the next actions to be taken.

"You mean it's possible that we've been targeted?" Wang Lei summed it up succinctly.

Qiao Lu nodded and said, "I'm not sure if the other party will continue to follow us, no matter what, the risk of continuing to act will become higher in the future." ”

It's obvious that exploring such a dangerous planet while constantly beware of sneak attackers from the shadows is like dancing on the tip of a knife.

Liu Peiqiang did not immediately express his position, but first contacted Moss on the navigator space station and asked it again about the status of the mission.

"The number of missing people has increased to twelve, five deaths have been confirmed, and there is still no exploration team that has confirmed the collection of superconducting ore samples, please continue to work hard."

There are only about 30 people in the ten exploration teams, and half of them have lost contact at the moment.

The mission has not yet been completed, and I am afraid that this landing operation will be in vain.

At this point, it may be wiser to decide to return to the space station first and wait for the arrival of the next team.

Liu Peiqiang continued to ask: "So have any of the probe team members retreated?" How many people are back on the space station now? ”

"0 people." Moss replied crisply, "All of the surviving team members are still carrying out their mission, and have expressed a desire to leave the evacuation point to those who have successfully retrieved ore samples to return." ”

"That's ······"

Evacuation on Pandora is not as easy as it was when it came down, and in order to be able to return to the space station, a rocket must be dropped to the designated location intact, which is much more technically difficult than throwing a few people down in an air drop module.

As a result, the Navigator space station has a limited number of evacuation points for the crew, and after one team has been evacuated by rocket, the other team can only move on to the next point.

So without anyone announcing the completion of the mission, no one planned to evacuate first using rockets.

If the mission fails for the sake of one's own survival, he is not worthy of being a soldier on the wandering earth.

After listening to Moss's explanation, Qiao Lu also knew what these two people would do.

"Well, let's continue the mission until someone succeeds in obtaining the superconducting ore."

Liu Peiqiang and Wang Lei did not object, and from the first day of the Wandering Earth Project, they were ready to sacrifice.

And Qiao Lu doesn't have such a heavy heart, with a system in his body, he will not be so easily led.

By landing on Pandora and observing the creatures on this planet, Qiao Lu has collected a total of 350 civilization points, which can be regarded as a sign that he has contributed a lot to the progress of civilization on the wandering earth.

Now the biologists on the wandering earth must be frantically studying the body structure of these alien creatures, which will certainly be of great help to them in analyzing the conditions for the existence of life in the universe.

Of course, this knowledge can't help for the time being, and the earth still has to find a way to get out of the current quantum crisis first.

If you can collect a superconducting ore sample by yourself, you will surely be able to gain a lot of civilization points.

After a night of rest on the vigil, the three-man team set off for the location where Moss said the magnetic field anomaly had been detected.

The expected sneak attack didn't happen, and it seems that the other side didn't harbor such great hostility, or maybe they just hadn't found a good opportunity to attack it yet.

In any case, Qiao Lu and the others remained vigilant all the way, ready to deal with enemies from any direction.

After an amen's stay in the jungle, they finally came to a relatively open plain, where the density of the surrounding trees had suddenly decreased, and a field that was barely suitable for horses to run.

And on this field, Qiao Lu finally saw the target indicated by Moss, and understood why it was observed in space, and it was also said that it was a giant tree.

It is a super towering tree about 460 meters high and 30 meters in diameter, which is simply a giant tree about the size of the Oriental Pearl of Shanghai, and the surrounding trees are more than 50 meters tall and look like small saplings in comparison.

The tree has countless branches, and many of them hang down to the ground, creating a spectacular scene of a forest.

From a distance, it looks like an oasis in the jungle, because there are really no trees more dense than it, so even in the forest, this green is still so conspicuous.

Wang Lei and Liu Peiqiang, who live on the wandering earth in the ice and snow all day long, were so shocked by the scene in front of them that they could hardly breathe, and this magnificent natural beauty is the long-lost embellishment of the wandering earth.

Liu Peiqiang couldn't help but sigh: "I know I may not be able to see it, but when human beings see the blue sky again, when the flowers are hung on the branches again, they will call me at that moment." ”

O Earth, my wandering Earth.

"Would you like to take a picture and burn it to you?" Qiao Lu unceremoniously patted Liu Peiqiang's helmet, which made him wake up from his sensibility in an instant.

But Qiao Lu said at the same time: "Don't worry, I will let you see it, and you don't have to wait for your children and grandchildren to come from generation to generation." ”

Wang Lei on the side also shook his head self-deprecatingly, he thought that after the death of his wife and children, he would not be touched by anything again.

Unexpectedly, it was such a simple and pure natural beauty that could evoke the most primitive emotion in his heart.

Yes, for the sake of all the 3.5 billion people who died in the Wandering Earth Project, they must continue to move forward.

At least so that they can be buried on a flowery earth.

After a moment's pause, the trio determined that the incomparably large tree was the source of Moss's magnetic anomaly.

This means that under the roots of the big tree, there may be a large deposit of Pandora's superconducting ore, and their purpose is only to bring a small piece back.

As long as it can be proved that these ores contain the energy to lift the planet out of the crisis, the next step for the coalition government will be to mine it with all the power of humanity.

But looking at such an unimaginably huge tree, Qiao Lu's ominous premonition was completely fulfilled.

For no other reason, this is the home tree of the Na'vi people, the indigenous people of Pandora.
