Chapter 11: The Frozen Man
After the successful development of TZM11 fuel, researchers from the China National Space Administration began to prepare for the spacecraft...
At the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, a four-section rocket carrying an unmanned spacecraft equipped with TZM11 fuel "Expander 1" is ready for launch.
The destination of this launch is Europa, and some probes are mainly placed on the spacecraft; The rocket was successfully lifted into orbit at the scheduled time.
After a month's flight, it soon landed on Europa.
More than a dozen probes set off synchronously on the barren ground of Europa...?
The scientists in the control center of the space agency are all staring at their respective computers, precisely cooperating with all the work of the probe machine in the background......
March 22, 2021
Operation N023, codenamed N023, was underway, and special forces carried weapons, made a detour with amphibious tanks and entered the target area.
After a six-hour voyage, the tank slowly approached the shore. They drove towards their destination, and at this time, Liu Fei, who had camped here for 2 days, seemed to hear the sound of a machine in the distance,
Happily go up to greet you!
"It's finally time for you!" Three people shouted
"You're tired, we'll take care of the rest! Let's go back to camp and rest! ”
The leader of the team is called Hu Yihu, he is the captain of this secret operation, and he has two scars on his face.
?“ You all know the situation inside, you must pay attention to safety! Liu Fei said
"The signal here is very strange, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, after entering, there will be hallucinations and gravity tilt, and there will be hallucinations, you must install all the safety facilities in place in advance, just in case!"
Wu Fan said as he took the signal tracker in the computer to analyze the data and compare it with the signal detected in the ship before.
"Before we came, we had already done our homework, we brought a lot of equipment, and I believe it should be fine." Captain Hu said
?“ Then I'll leave it to you," Liu Fei said
?“ Rest assured, we're always on the phone! “
After that, Liu Fei and the others returned to the nearby camp to rest.
In the midst of the white shrouded hills, the E562 freighter still stands, as if waiting for passers-by to uncover its secrets......
The soldiers used infrared detectors to detect the hull in advance and found no signs of life. 30 soldiers climbed into the hull of the ship in an orderly manner with ropes,
They searched the ship's parts separately, first cutting off all the electrical equipment in the hull, but nothing happened.
The roaring tanks were then assembled into a crane truck to detach the red containers from the hull one by one.
Placed on the ground in a mountainous area, the warriors are well-trained in their movements.
According to the plan of this operation, in addition to gradually transporting the container back without accidents, they also need to take the navigation recorder in the ship and transport it directly back to China.
The hull is cut into pieces and shipped back gradually over a period of 15 days.
The soldier scanned the box with a thermal detector, and many bags appeared inside.
"Ready to unbox!" Captain Hu ordered
Fifteen soldiers with machine guns half-crouched and aimed their sights at the mouth of the container, and the other five cut the lock of the box with an electric cutter.
At the moment, everyone held their breath.
"Phew!" The lock was cut open and the door slowly opened......
Suddenly, two cats sprang out of it, startling everyone.
The trigger that the soldiers were about to pull was instantly retracted, and they almost missed the fire, and everyone laughed at each other.
"There are still cats?" The soldier said with a smile
"Seriously, let's see what's inside?" Captain Hu said
I saw that the inside of the box was dark, and the lock-picking soldier on one side walked in to check it.
"Report to the captain, there's nothing in there!" The soldier said
"Double-check!" Captain Hu said
"Report to the captain, check it out! There was nothing but a few wools on the ground, a pile of cat poop, and a few broken bags! The soldier reported and handed over the only clues he had found inside the box.
This result came as a surprise to all the soldiers present.
"Then open the next box! Strict search one by one! "Captain Hu ordered
"Yes!!" The soldiers replied in unison
Then they opened five more chests, and as before, there was nothing left but wool and bags on the floor, until they opened the seventh...
The soldier's door is as usual, half of the people are half squatting and pointing their guns at the mouth of the box, and five people are responsible for unlocking, when they open the seventh door, firstly, it is not as direct as the previous ones, and secondly, when they knock on the door before cutting, they find that the sound of this door is wrong, it is a little hard, they open the door hard, and the white cold air flows out from inside, and the cold air is so much that everyone is hidden in the fog like a fog, slowly, the fog fades away, and the image in the door is slowly clearly visible, at this time, A large block of ice appeared in front of them, and the entire box turned into a large block of ice.
The soldiers were ready to get close to see what was inside the ice, but it was very blurry, they couldn't see anything clearly, and their eyes were white.
"Cut the box all out!" Team Hu ordered.
The soldiers brought the laser cutter and began to cut from both sides at the same time, the laser began to cut like tofu, the sparks began to scratch along the two lines on the side of the box, the air was filled with a smell of burnt metal, the ice was about to melt and the water flowed down the box, within ten minutes, the steel plate fell to the ground from both sides instantly, and the ice slag splashed on the ground, at this moment, a huge super ice cube appeared in front of them, and an amazing scene appeared......
Inside the Ice: The crew of E562 is frozen inside, they are in a variety of forms, magically frightened, and appear to be fleeing.
The soldiers on one side counted the number of people inside.
"Report Captain, 15 people" soldier reported
"That's not all, let's unpack!" Captain Hu said
The soldier door pried open the red 15 boxes and found three more boxes with ice cubes, which they continued to cut.
"Report to the captain, all the boxes have been carefully counted, there are a total of 54 frozen people!" Soldier reports
"It's all here!"
At this time, Hu Yihu took the list of 50 missing crew members in his hand and ticked them one by one, and the extra 4 were the fishermen who disappeared that day...
This major discovery led to a breakthrough victory for Operation N023.
Soldiers inspect containers and prepare tools to cut the ship's hull.
At this moment, an alarm sounded on the ship ... The signal lights began to shine again,
And the frequency band sound on the radar appeared '____'''________'____
"It doesn't make sense, the power facilities have all been cut off," Captain Hu said
The soldiers looked blankly at the signal lights on the ship ...
