Chapter Forty-Eight: The Infiltration of "Going and Not Returning".

"However, it seems that the other party is just cruising around, and has no intention of attacking." The little girl's addition made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

But even with this addition, Zhou Xinxin also knew that there was not much time left for them. So, he quickly decided, "Okay, Atlas, just do what you say." Prepare, just let the probe in when the next entrance opens, is it too late? ”

"That's enough."

As if to scare Zhou Xin and them, the attackers who appeared around the mining site roamed there for more than three hours. Not only did they not initiate the attack, but they even maintained a relatively fixed distance from the patrol combat units from the beginning to the end. Even if the combat units on Zhou Xin's side try to approach, the opponent will take the initiative to retreat to avoid it. This was a big surprise to everyone, and there was some concern that the attackers were secretly preparing for something big. However, before the other party could make any moves, everyone waited for the entrance to the underwater hideout to open again.

At the same time as Atlas reported to Zhou Xin, he released relevant images on the big screen. Just like the previous times, Zhou Xin and the others first saw the entrance open, and when the entrance opened to the maximum, those attackers lined up and came out.

At the same time as the entrance opened, the little girl briefly introduced the arrangements she had made to Zhou Xin, "Brother Captain, in the past three hours or so, people have further optimized the semi-intelligent program in the detector. I believe that after optimization, they will be able to complete this task well. For the sake of safety, and also to test the internal situation, people are going to send only one detector in the first time to investigate, and then let the second batch of detectors in after there is no problem. ”

"Hmm." Zhou Xin nodded, "It's a pretty safe arrangement, just do what you say." ”

As he spoke, the last attacker had already left the exit. Seizing this opportunity, the probe, which was already quite close to the entrance, rushed over with the disguise of the sediment that had been stirred up. Halfway through, the screen suddenly became blurry, not the blur when it was obscured by sediment, but the blur when it was disturbed. Within seconds of the interference, the entire screen was completely darkened. Soon, Atlas switched the camera to another detector.

"Why is the signal suddenly gone? Was it discovered by the other party? Zhou Xin hurriedly asked. Obviously, if the signal was lost just because of interference, it wouldn't have happened so suddenly, and it wouldn't have happened when the signal was just starting to interfere. Therefore, after seeing the mutation that occurred on the screen, Zhou Xin looked a little nervous. But soon he realized from the new picture that there was something wrong with his previous thoughts, "No, if the other party found out, it would definitely not be so quiet now." Could it be that something is wrong with the detector itself? Zhou Xin's words made everyone present nervous.

"Ann, la, la." At this time, Atlas said with a big grin, "It was someone who asked the probe to voluntarily turn off the contact, in order to prevent any accidents during the process of entering." Not only the communication equipment, but now the detector has turned off all the devices that can be turned off, and it won't turn on until it is inside. ”

"That's good." Hearing that this was the little girl's arrangement, Zhou Xin subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and then he asked, "When will we be able to receive the news from that detector." ”

"It's quick to simply explore what's going on inside." A smug smile appeared on Atlas's face, "Just open the entrance next time, which is why people choose to let the probe in when the attackers come out." ”

At this moment, the entrance in the lens had been closed, and looking at the big screen with no picture now, Zhou Xin fell silent.

The waiting time is quite long, although it only takes more than an hour to get the result, but Zhou Xin is still faintly worried. After all, this is the first time that the probe has performed a mission without being able to contact it completely, and any accidents that occur during the entire process must be determined by the probe itself. Even with Atlas's assurances, he still didn't feel reassured. This emotion also affected the other people in the command cabin, and in such a solemn atmosphere, Zhou Xin and the others finally waited for the return of the attacker.

"How? Did you get a response from the probe? The light at the entrance had barely appeared in the picture, and Dart couldn't wait to ask.

"It's not so fast, at least it won't react until the entrance is fully opened." Atlas replied.

After more than ten seconds, even Spred couldn't help it, "Now that the entrance is completely open, have you received a response now?" ”

"Wait, wait." The little girl soothed.

After a while, until the last attacker began to move towards the entrance, even Atlas became a little uneasy, and she muttered to herself: "It's strange, it shouldn't be like this, why hasn't it come out yet, is there really something wrong?" Of course, there was a glimmer of hope in her heart before the entrance was closed.

But soon, as the entrance slowly closed, the little girl's mood slowly sank. When the picture returned to darkness, her face began to show a panicked expression, "It shouldn't be, this shouldn't be, didn't it mean that even if you don't come out, you should at least send a contact signal?" What went wrong inside? ”

"Don't panic." At this time, it was Zhou Xin's turn to comfort Atlas in turn, "Judging from the situation just now, at least the probe was not found inside, otherwise their reaction would not be so bland." Maybe it's just because of some special circumstances inside, so the probe can't communicate with us. ”

"Impossible." As soon as Zhou Xin's words fell, Atlas said quickly, "Before going in, people have made a clear explanation. When the entrance is opened again, no matter how important the ongoing investigation is, communication with the outside world must be the first priority, and if it is found that it is impossible to contact, it must be immediately exited from the inside......"
