Chapter 7 Lookout Lighthouse
The "Extraterrestrial" reached the surface of the moon without any problems, and the place where it docked was the same as the last time.
"You two hurry up and put on your spacesuits and get ready to get out of the capsule!" After Li Wei finished speaking, he threw the spacesuits that had already been tailored by the two teenagers, and touched the lower left corner of the helmet, "Call the headquarters, prepare to land!" ”
However, there was no reply from headquarters.
Soon, the two of them dressed neatly, put on helmets, and after trying to communicate normally, they stood at the door of the cabin with Li Wei.
"The connection with the headquarters seems to have been blocked by an unknown external force, and it seems that optical quantum communication technology has not yet broken through the anti-jamming experiment." Seeing the hatch open, Li Wei stopped the two with his elbow and said, "It's not clear what the outside environment is, I'll go down alone first, and you will come out after there is no problem." ”
After saying that, he walked down the hanging ladder.
The yellow-haired boy looked at the ring of fire beside him at a loss.
The latter's sharp eyes were staring at Li Wei's back, as if through a silver cold light, it could freeze any substance he saw in an instant.
Not long after, Li Wei beckoned the two of them out.
The yellow-haired boy couldn't wait to run out of the cabin, his eyes open curiously, his brain quickly absorbing and storing his surroundings.
"It's amazing! Is this the moon! The yellow-haired boy couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and ran down quickly.
But as soon as he took the first step, he soared more than a meter high, and his other leg was driven by inertia to run, but in mid-air, he didn't move half a step at all.
"The gravity on the moon is only one-sixth that of the earth, and if you want to move as fast, you can only jump like a rabbit." After Huohuan finished speaking to the yellow-haired boy with a smile, he jumped up and caught up with Li Wei.
"Ring of Fire, I know you're not simple, can you explain the situation in front of you?" Li Wei stood in place, and the scene was very different from when he first landed on the moon.
At the time of the first landing, the landing site happened to be near a surface exit from the Vivel Man's inner base on the moon, and the buildings on it were lit up in blue or green, and huge instruments and factories were in operation, like drilling rigs on Earth, or like mines for refining kerosene.
Even if the scale is much larger than that of a mechanical device on Earth, standing so close, you can barely hear a faint "rumbling", like a drink bottle tapping against your ear with your fingernails.
Pyramid-shaped buildings are lined up, and from the ground emerge from the ground the huge Vivel people, jumping and hopping, their long tails able to maintain their balance in motion.
The Vivier people seem to have multiple races, similar to the dinosaurs of the Cretaceous era, some of them are seven or eight meters tall, with slender and long necks; Some of the Vivel are only more than two meters tall and agile, and this race accounts for as much as eighty or ninety percent of the Vivel people......
But now, this originally prosperous and lively Vivier base is empty!
"A few months ago, it was still bustling." Li Wei recalled while explaining to the two teenagers, "I remember that as soon as I got off the spacecraft, there were already a lot of Viviers waiting here, most of them were more than two meters tall flexible Viviers, and they were also wearing spacesuits that fit their bodies, but their spacesuits were clinging to their bodies like stockings, not as bulky as ours." They stood in a circle and surrounded me in the middle, but I could tell from their dark eyes that they had expected me to land. ”
"In other words, they know everything about every move on the earth?"
"Yes, the towering tower not far away is their lookout, which I visited before, remember...... Not...... No, when I think about that time, my brain feels like I've been pricked by countless needles! ”
"Ring of Fire, why don't we go over and have a look?"
The ring of fire nodded, but before he could take two steps, he stopped.
"What's wrong?"
The Ring of Fire crouched down and measured a large footprint on the ground with the palm of his hand.
This footprint is much larger than a bear's claw, and from the depth of the toes and soles of the feet, as well as the potential energy of the dust, it can be seen that the owner of the footprint moves by jumping on both legs and has the ability to walk upright.
Compared with his own shoe prints, he weighs about 20 times that of a human.
In addition to this, there are several different types of footprints, but the most common is a lighter paw print with a sharp hook, like the claws of a seagull fishing on the surface of the water.
"What a rich race." The Ring of Fire is full of praise and deep respect for the diversity of extraterrestrial life.
The three of them soon came to the watchtower, and the top of the towering "silver" tower emitted green lights in all directions, pointing the way to the Viviers in the distance.
"I didn't expect this to happen!" Li Wei couldn't believe what he saw in front of him, and thought that a group of Vivier people would come out to negotiate with him, but after walking for so long, he didn't see a single "person".
Led the two teenagers to the front of the lighthouse, looked up at the lighthouse that showed the way to the Vivier people, not only shook his head, but said, "Come here, let's see if we can find a way to get in." ”
……
"No, this matter must not be made public!" Ding Beihai vetoed Sun Gang's proposal.
Sun Gang got up, kicked the chair behind him to the ground, and shouted, "Then who will explain this matter?" What about acting in TV dramas? ”
"No, if the news gets out, it will inevitably cause a global panic!"
"Heh, the global panic is not once or twice!" Sun Gang was unrelenting and was deeply dissatisfied with Ding Beihai's attitude towards handling things.
"This matter is not trivial, and at this juncture, it will definitely not work!"
"My assistant isn't human?"
"This has nothing to do with her identity!"
Sun Gang dragged Ding Beihai by the neckline, put a pistol on Ding Beihai's forehead, and glared angrily: "Lao Tzu is going to the moon now!" ”
……
"Alright, pry it open!" The ring of fire patted the dust off his hands and removed a large heavy metal cover.
"Are you earthling? It's so strong that people can't believe it! I can't even lift a corner of this metal cover! Li Wei looked at the huge metal lid that had been moved to the side by the ring of fire, and was a little dumbfounded.
The three of them quickly climbed into the basketball court-sized hole one after the other.
The moon's gravity is so small that the trio can climb and descend quickly with little effort.
The walls of the well are coated with an unknown metal, which is not only anti-scratch and anti-corrosion, but also emitting light independently, like a layer of fluorescence.
"What are these materials and why do they glow on their own?"
"It is supposed to be the light produced by some action of electrons, and it seems that it has reached a kind of cyclic conservation of energy, perhaps through the connected part on the lunar surface to continue to replenish the light force, or it is possible to use the weak interaction inside the metal particles to change the electromagnetic force of the wall connecting the whole, and the massless photons are transferred to the entire surface of the wall."
"Hehe, I didn't understand." The yellow-haired boy smiled and wanted to scratch the back of his head, but found that he was tightly wrapped in a helmet.
"You'll understand, keep going!"
The three of them went deeper and deeper, and on a branch next to the main road, they stumbled upon a familiar object.
"Brother Li, this seems to be a human thing, right?" The yellow-haired boy jumped lightly and jumped into the branch intersection three meters away.
Li Wei and the Ring of Fire immediately jumped over.
I couldn't help but wonder when I saw the yellow-haired young man who was squatting on the ground with his back to the two of them.
How can there be human items in the empty and uninhabited Vivel base, and is there any inevitable connection between this item and the sudden disappearance of the Vivier people?
"Let's go inside!"
After saying that, the three of them cautiously continued to move forward.
