Episode 508: Mysterious Signal

Hyakjan and Sylvia are figuring out how to locate the mysterious beacon station, and the two of them are getting some preparations.

After the spacecraft entered the orbit of Wanghai, Baizhan put all the small satellites into orbit, although this small small satellite is small, but in fact it is very functional, and the detection distance is very far, and the scanned image is really very clear.

After confirming that the satellite is working normally, Baizhan began to live in orbit, and entering the high-altitude orbit is not immediately to land, which requires a few days of orbit from the high-altitude orbit, the first is to slowly reduce the altitude, and also to scan and have a preliminary understanding of the situation on the ground.

Looking down from the sky, Baizhan saw a full blue-gray, the whole planet felt like a gray blue planet, and the cloud map of the atmosphere looked very domineering.

The entire sea water of the starfish occupies 14% of the weight of the planet. That is, the depth of the sea is hundreds of kilometers and the depth of coverage is more than that. This depth of sea water coverage is very surprising to all battles.

After looking down on the entire planet from a high altitude and circling the planet many times, many areas are actually very bad because of the meteorological conditions on the sea surface. Therefore, Bai Zhan didn't plan to stay at high altitude for too long, and after arranging the air and space detection equipment, he also directly started the landing procedure. Baizhan adjusted the orbit so that it was very static and suspended in the orbit,

Then Baizhan and Sylvia landed from high altitude in a landing module.

Baizhan is located on the only "land" of Wanghai, that is, the coral reef.

The landing module is not large, and two people can sit in it. Because of the limitations of the landing module, you can't wear auxiliary mechas, so you can only sit directly in the cabin.

Baizhan and Sylvia put on their hazmat suits and sat in the cockpit.

As the landing module was lowered from the sky, after entering the high-level flag, a fireball fell from the sky from the sea. After entering the stratosphere, the ejectors of the landing module began to adjust their attitude, and slowly descended to the designated location.

As the landing module landed steadily on the reef, Baizhan opened the hatch and opened with the hatch. What Baizhan saw was the endless sea, and this time he really couldn't see anything but that. Looking at the sky from the ground, it is gloomy everywhere, and it seems that on this planet, sunny days are very rare, and basically it is gloomy and dreary weather, stuffy and hot.

The hot and humid air felt the smell of seawater everywhere, and Baizhan took off his helmet, he looked around, and Sylvia whispered, "It's really thorough, it's really seawater everywhere." ”

Standing on the reef, Baizhan whispered, "Immediately reinforce the fixed landing module, it won't be long before the tide rises." ”

Sylvia nodded, she walked into the cabin, pressed the button, and then several spray guns appeared on the bracket at the bottom of the ship, and the reef on the ground was first opened a hole, and then several brackets probed several very long metal rods around it, and the bracket was lifted up, and the cabin sank into the deep pit of the reef, and then suddenly liquid metal was poured around, and after the metal was poured out, it quickly solidified. The whole chamber is completely integrated with the reef and becomes very solid.

Baizhan and Sylvia could only enter the cockpit through the hatch at the top.

When the cockpit was fixed, Bai Zhan and Sylvia both got into the inside of the cabin, in the cabin, Bai Zhan turned on the information transmission image of the satellite, he looked at the dynamics of the sea and said: "The height of this wave is really not small, you just talk about it on weekdays, but when you really see it, hundreds of meters of huge waves are really terrifying." Today we are here to make do, and we will have a communication with the rear, and tell them that we have completed the construction of the communication station, and tomorrow we will put some sonar for detection. ”

Sylvia nodded and said, "yes, okay." ”

After Hyaksen closed the hatch, almost the entire landing capsule was buried in the reef, so even if the tide rose from time to time, it would not be affected too much. Baizhan and Sylvia hid in the cabin, and when the tide was high, the water almost flooded the reef in a blink of an eye. It took less than a second for the reef to grind, and it was basically a slightly larger wave. And then it drowned. After that, Baizhan found himself at a depth of several tens of meters below the surface of the sea.

The sea water continues to grow, and in ten minutes, this "land" is already 300 meters below the sea water, and on the sea surface, the big waves directly shoot over, and from the wave energy generated by the ocean, Baizhan finds that there is a huge amount of energy here. The reason why this land is called land is not nonsense, but because this area belongs to the "shallow sea area" and the area is very large, where a tidal power station can be built, using strong tidal energy to generate a large amount of electricity, and a base can be established in the "land" below the sea surface, and then it will be able to ensure the control of the sea all year round.

After the sea was covered, there was a thumping sound from the outside of the cabin, and in the small space, Bai Zhan and Sylvia were close together, because it was only so big that they could only be close together. It was the first time Sylvia had been so close to a man. She looked at Bai Zhan's serious expression, and her eyes were a little involuntarily refreshed.

Baizhan has been staring at all kinds of data, and collecting enough data can ensure that the follow-up tasks can be carried out.

Sylvia looked at Baizhan's back, she leaned over, but soon realized the embarrassment, and when she leaned over, she found that her body was tightly attached to Baizhan's body. Sylvia's face flushed, Baizhan was nothing, he was preoccupied with the data.

The dynamics of the big waves, the data of ocean currents, these are all battles to investigate. If there is a problem with any data and you don't prepare it in advance, it costs you your life. This is the case in interstellar exploration, especially in an unknown world, where everything is unknown, and these unknown environments are full of the challenge of death.

When the sea depth exceeds 500 meters, a large number of marine fish appear on top of the cabin, and sitting in the cabin can see the outside scene through the probe. These fish have a faint fluorescence on their bodies, and they migrate along the currents, and from the cabins they see ribbons of blue light.

"It's beautiful...... Sylvia looked at the spectacular scene from a strange world. After the big wave passed, a large number of fish appeared, all kinds of fish, Bai Zhan and Sylvia could not be named, these fish were following the current

Bai Zhan looked at the screen, and a large number of fish gathered above the cabin to form a river, which was like a river hanging overhead. Everything was so peaceful, so peaceful. There is no smoke between civilizations at all, there is only nature here, and everything is mysterious nature.

Turn on the sonar, the sound waves emitted by some big fish echo in the sea water and converge into a very beautiful sound, which is like someone in command, the voice is elegant and tactful, and you can feel that the fish in the sea are very happy from the sound.

Sylvia whispered, "Sure enough, the most beautiful thing in this world is nature. ”

Bai Zhan looked at the screen and whispered: "Not really, there are not very harmonious things in this nature now." ”

Bai Zhan said this, he quickly pointed at the camera, and in the ocean current, they actually saw a black floating object, this object is very weird, it is a metal can, this thing is floating in the ocean current, Bai Zhan locked the metal canister here, Sylvia asked in a low voice, "Is that an artifact?" ”

"And it's a floating sonar, we can collect its signals." Baizhan said calmly.

Sylvia whispered, "Isn't it? ”

Bai Zhan silently looked at the black metal canister and said: "Nothing is impossible, the other party uses the ocean current to release this floating sonar, which is to deploy its own underwater information network on the entire planet." This thing may not be used for detection, but it is really too small for detection, and it is very likely that this thing is just a repeater, a special device used for strait communication. If that's the case, I probably already understand how their signals get out. And one thing we know for sure. ”

"What?"

"Tao Anrong deceived us, there is not only one base station in Wanghai at all, but a communication unit. If it's just a base station, there's no need to do that. The reason for this is to carry out communication in the sea, if it is just a base station, then there is no need for them to put sonar like this, which can only show that once there is more than one base station, not to mention, and the other party is definitely not just a team. This time, the two of us should be prepared to be pitted, maybe the other party is a ship, or even a fleet. Speaking of this, Sylvia asked in a low voice, "Then our combat strength is only the two of us?" ”

"Well, there is also a giant-class nuclear submarine that can be used, and the other is that you can call a dragoon, plus your own equipment, this is all our belongings, the giant-class can carry some N bombs, but not too many. At the end of the day, this battle is really troublesome. Speaking of this, Sylvia felt her hand slip for some reason, and then suddenly lay on Baizhan's back, her hands wrapped around Baizhan's neck, and the whole person was tightly attached to Baizhan's body.

Sylvia's cheeks were crimson, and she kept her head down and didn't dare to speak. Bai Zhan said calmly: "Thank you for your encouragement, I suddenly feel less depressed." ”

Sylvia lowered her head, her hands clenched somehow. Then she whispered, "Thank you, my king, for forgiving my rudeness. ”

"No, this is an encouragement and reward in terms of interaction, and I am very happy about this reward. Sylvia, you can try to express yourself, we don't just want to create the pinnacle of civilization, I also want to experience the joy of being alive, and now I am happy. ”

Hearing Baizhan's explanation, Sylvia's face was so red that it was about to drip blood, and she lowered her head and said, "I...... I feel happy too......
