Chapter 277: Bones on Mars
"Ahh Why don't you die!? Erin finally couldn't stand Li Chen's teasing, stretched out her fist, and smashed her spiritual power into Li Chen's face.
Well, this spirit is weaker than mine. Li Chen came to such a conclusion through Erin's shot. He didn't use his spiritual power at all, he directly stretched out his palm, and relied on the strength of his physical body to take Erin's punch.
"Alright, no kidding you guys!" Li Chen blocked Erin's second punch and hurriedly stopped, "I admit that your role is indeed very important, but we still need to endure it for a few more days!" ”
Erin angrily took two steps back, "What are you putting up with?" You've removed the bugs and bombs! ”
"Don't worry, as long as we can get back to the makeshift base tonight, no one will notice these things!" Li Chen can be sure that all the engineering vehicles are equipped with these things, as long as they don't disappear within the monitoring range of the Baron for too long, they will not attract the attention of people who care, which is why Li Chen dared to remove these two things when he entered the signal shielding area.
"The next few days will depend on you to prepare all the things we need!"
......
By the time Li Chen and the others drove the engineering vehicle back to the temporary base, it was already nightfall, and the surface temperature of Mars had rapidly dropped to about minus 20 degrees.
The other nine engineering vehicles that had gone to survey and collect water resources had already returned to the temporary base one step ahead of Li Chen.
Although they have a total of nine engineering vehicles working at the same time, because this is near the equator, the water-bearing strata of Mars are far deeper than the strata where the metal ore is located, and the geological structure is several times more complex than that near the metal mine. The simultaneous operation of nine engineering vehicles has only completed a quarter of the excavation progress.
Moreover, while eating in the canteen of the temporary base, Li Chen also vaguely heard that among the nine engineering vehicles excavated at the water intake point, it seemed that someone had detected something terrible in the ground.
It's just that Li Chen, Liu Yu and Erin, who are bent on planning to escape from the blood clan base, don't have the heart to pay attention to anything else, even if a diamond mine is dug up in Mars, it has nothing to do with them.
For the next three days, Li Chen, Erin and Liu Yu drove the engineering vehicle to the location of the metal mine to strengthen the passage before the sun rose, and then collected some metal ore samples by the way, and then waited until the sun set before returning.
Then he handed the ore sample to Erin and told her to go to the first ladder laboratory to take it for testing, and bring some inconsequential knick-knacks back by the way.
On the night of the third day, the fourth night of the Baron's arrival on Mars. Erin and Liu Yu quietly came to Li Chen's bedroom.
"Li Chen, everything has been prepared today! Shall we leave tomorrow? Erin nervously glanced around Li Chen's room.
"Don't worry, there's no camera in the house!" After Li Chen closed the door, he directly turned over and lay on the bed and said, "Let's not talk about the engineering truck, where has Sister Zhilan been in the past few days?" ”
Li Chen has been hanging out in the temporary base since he came back from outside in the past few days, and under the protection of the third staircase, the temperature in the temporary base can be maintained at more than ten degrees, and Li Chen can safely move in the base without wearing a helmet.
But even if he had searched carefully these days, he had never found any trace of Murong Zhilan, and it seemed that he had never come out after talking to himself and others.
"I haven't seen it either, it seems that something is wrong in the south, and many people have been transferred by Sister Zhilan!" Erin came this time to discuss this issue with Li Chen, "I heard that human bones have been found in the strata of the water resource mine in the south! And it's a large area of bones! ”
"......" Li Chen looked at Liu Yu with a positive expression on his face, a little confused, "Are you sure?" It's Mars! Not the spiritual world! ”
"I'm sure, I've seen the stratigraphic scans archived by the research center, and while the bones look generally a little short, they're definitely human!"
"Da !!" Li Chen sat up and unconsciously tapped his fingers in front of the bedside table, and only after a while did he look up at the third girl and said, "What about the news about Immigration No. 1!?" ”
"They came a lot faster than expected, and they voluntarily abandoned the bases that had been built near the magnetic fields of the north and south poles, and landed in three groups in the northern hemisphere! Of course, there is still a part left on Phobos and Deimos. "After all, Erin is a person who works in the command room, and there are some things that Li Chen doesn't need to take the initiative to say and knows that he should investigate.
"Hmm......" Li Chen said with a frown, "Have you practiced any exercises in the past two days?" Can you absorb the spiritual power on Mars? ”
"Where is there any spiritual power that can be absorbed!" Erin shook her head and said, "We all go to the Divine Continent at night to practice for a while before coming back!" ”
"That's it!" Li Chen grabbed his somewhat long hair and said, "In that case, let's leave tomorrow!" Don't worry about the bones, anyway, there are some unsolved mysteries on any planet, so leave those to the big guys to worry about! ”
Although Li Chen was very curious about the human bones in the strata, he knew that the appearance of these bones created an excellent opportunity for them to leave, and if they waited a few more days, the diehards of the Blood Clan noticed that all the first settlers had landed on Mars, then they would never have a chance to escape.
"I hope your setup will do some good!" Erin and Liu Yu were sent out of his bedroom by Li Chen, and then Li Chen took Xiao Hei to continue his daily patrol work.
......
The next day, the sky was just dawning, and the blue sun was shining into the valley.
A lone armored engineering vehicle slowly drove out of the passage through the main entrance of the temporary base. In the early morning sun, a long shadow was pulled, and the shadow spread all the way to the dormant Baron, which was not far from the temporary base, like a young eagle about to break away from the arms of the mother eagle and reluctantly entangled the Baron.
"Bang!"
The heavy-duty elevator came to a steady stop at the top of the cliff, shaking the red dust around the cliff wall slightly.
"Why is Xiao Hei in the engineering truck!?" When the engineering truck drove away from the temporary base, Erin immediately grabbed Li Chen's shirt and asked nervously.
The reason why Erin was nervous was because monitoring equipment had already been installed in various passages in the temporary base, and Xiao Hei had been staying in the engineering vehicle all the time and had not followed Li Chen as usual, which would inevitably attract the attention of others!
"Don't be afraid! Everything was ready for last night! Li Chen patted Erin's hand and motioned for her to loosen her shirt and said, "Even if someone wants to do something to us, it can't be done near the temporary base, that will cause the soldiers to mutiny!" ”
This is the reason why Li Chen dares to carry out his escape plan with confidence and boldness, Murong Zhilan is no longer in the temporary base, if someone dares to do anything to the engineering vehicles on the mining road, it will inevitably cause the vigilance and dissatisfaction of ordinary soldiers. And Murong Zhilan can take this opportunity to integrate the blood clan base and eliminate dissidents.
