One month away from the Games.

"Commander, our mining submarine has found something."

Early in the morning, the adjutant appeared beside Lin Chen and said to him.

"Bring up the image."

Lin Chen's words fell, and a holographic projection was projected in front of him from the universal tool.

This is a video of a huge crater in the dark deep sea, which should have been dug by the mining boat, and as the mining boat continued to go deeper, the scenery inside became darker and darker, until at last only the faint light of a few searchlights remained.

After continuing to drive forward for a few minutes, the scenery in front of him was gradually revealed, making Lin Chen's breathing stagnant slightly.

I saw that there were already more than a dozen mining boats ahead, and the searchlights illuminated the area extremely brightly.

It is a heavy gate, and countless dense and regular lines are all over the gate, giving people a strong sense of science fiction.

"This is an ancient relic that we found while we were mining, and according to the examination of the material attached to the gate, this remains dates back to the Cretaceous period."

The adjutant explained.

"Can you open it?"

Lin Chen tried to calm his restless heart, but his voice was still trembling. The alien ruins of the Cretaceous period, how great the attraction was to him.

"No, our mining boats lack the necessary capabilities. However, it is certain that this ruin is most likely related to the Xenomorph. The adjutant said.

"Alien!"

The black creature that looked like a lizard almost killed him, making Lin Chen extremely impressed by the alien.

"I think there should be other exits to the site, do you want to investigate?" The adjutant asked.

"Investigate, but keep a low profile." Lin Chen didn't want to let go of this ruin, and at the same time, he didn't want to be discovered about the existence of the fleet, at least not before the military exercise.

"Yes, Commander."

"By the way, one more thing. I want to go to the Antarctic base to have a look, the company in Australia should be ready, and I will bring Zhang Kun and those people over by the way. ”

Regarding the Antarctic base, he has not seen the real face except for the video sent back by the adjutant, and he is also very curious about the interior of the newly built dock.

"No problem, Commander, when are you going to go?" The adjutant said.

"I will fly to Australia first, and then send a submarine to pick me up directly." Lin Chen said.

"Yes, Commander."

……

An hour later, Lin Chen had already taken Zhang Kun and the others to the airport and took a long-distance flight to Australia.

From Huaxia to Australia a total of more than 9,000 kilometers, it takes more than ten hours to take a plane, Zhang Kun and others are arranged into the company, by the way bought some a lot of polar exploration equipment, in the North and South Pole that cold places, down jackets are not used, very easy to get damp, only animal fur made of polar cold clothing, spikes these can be worn for a long time, and one set is not enough, to buy a few more sets, as well as sleeping bags, food must be brought, as for tents, there are rooms in the dock that can be lived, so there is no need.

These equipment are not only difficult to find, but also extremely expensive, the cheapest mask costs more than a thousand, after the preparation, Lin Chen has an urge to explore, but he knows that there is not so much time for him to explore. So he left Australia in a submarine at night.

If you reach Antarctica from Australia, it is more than 5,000 kilometers, and it will take more than a week at the speed of a submarine, so he has already said hello to the school and asked for a month off, and the school did not say anything about it, because Lin Chen's results Every teacher and even the professor applauded, so it was approved, which made Lin Chen breathe a sigh of relief.

Soon after he left Australia, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang, he picked up the phone and saw that Meng Shuhua was calling, so he answered it curiously.

"Lin Chen, I heard that you took a leave of absence, what happened?"

Meng Shuhua's voice like thin water came from the other end of the phone, making Lin Chen's heart a little warm.

But she cares about herself so much, she shouldn't take a fancy to herself!

Lin Chen thought so narcissistically.

"Hello? Are you there? ”

Listening to the sound on the other end of the phone, Meng Shuhua shouted twice.

"Ahem, yes."

Lin Chen coughed in embarrassment and hurriedly responded.

"Are you sick?"

Hearing Lin Chen's cough, Meng Shuhua's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was faintly worried in her heart, even she was scared by this change, although she usually paid attention to every classmate, but those were the responsibilities of being the class leader in her opinion, but this time it was different, she looked at her phone and was a little confused.

"Oh no, I had some urgent business to do abroad, so I took a month's off from school." Lin Chen replied.

"That's okay...... Tell, me, what's the matter? It seemed that she had mustered up the courage, Meng Shuhua herself didn't expect to ask such a question, so she hurriedly added: "I'm sorry, I'm too abrupt." ”

"No, haha, in fact, I should be the one who said sorry, I can't tell you these things." Lin Chen really wanted to make up a lie, such as something to deal with here at Niupai University, but he didn't like the habit of lying to familiar people, in Lin Chen's opinion, he and Meng Shuhua were already friends.

"Ah, it's okay, everyone has their own secrets, it's okay if you don't tell it, but I'm too sharp." Meng Shuhua hurriedly said, she faintly felt that Lin Chen was too mysterious, so she couldn't help but want to understand him and get close to him.

After chatting casually with Meng Shuhua, he hung up the phone.

"Host, that girl cares about you!" Xiao Ya suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"She's the kind of person who likes to care about her classmates." Lin Chen said casually.

"Why, I can hear it, that cautious tone, afraid of saying the wrong thing and being hated by you, oops, oops, so shy!" Although Xiao Ya had no body, Lin Chen had already recalled the way Meng Shuhua blushed because she was holding hands during the sports meeting.

"What nonsense." Lin Chen rolled his eyes, he believed that Xiao Ya would definitely see it.

"Hee-hee, don't I know what you're thinking, host? Are you thinking about the day when you want to take each other in? Oh yes, I also need a suitable reason, such as letting her be the deputy conductor or something......" Xiao Ya's words did not continue, but Lin Chen was speechless for a while, he did think about letting Meng Shuhua join him, but he didn't think about it in that direction!

Forget it, Lin Chen simply didn't explain, this damn system elf will only get darker and darker, and there is no benefit at all if you continue to talk about it.

……

It took seven days to reach the periphery of Antarctica, and from underwater, the entire Antarctic glacier looks like an upside-down cone, deep under the sea.

"Commander, we've cleared the way for you, and we'll be in the center of the ice sheet by tomorrow morning." The adjutant said.

"I see."
