Starting from a small task, Meng Yang teased the concubine little by little, allowing her to gradually accept the project of the dark web and serve the dark web.

Concubine Zhong was facing the choice after graduation, and she was hesitant to not know whether to focus on her career, devote herself to the pet group after graduation, become a general manager of the company, or focus on personal interests, enter a scientific research unit after graduation, and completely take the road of scientific research.

At this time, the emergence of the dark web gave her the possibility of taking care of both, and while being the general manager, she could also accept the dark web project and continue her favorite scientific research direction.

When Meng Yang was seducing the concubine in the air, Doctor Octopus's communication suddenly came in.

"Boss, the submarine sent to the waters of the Central Pacific has found suspected urban ruins on the ocean floor."

Meng Yang was confused at that time, although we are not studying geography and history, but there should be neither continents nor civilizations in the central part of the Pacific Ocean, at most there are a few indigenous tribes, right, the ruins of the city? Besides, you've ever heard of an island sinking with a city.

"The ruins of the city were badly damaged, most of the buildings collapsed, and they are about 1,200 meters above the sea."

“...... Send me the image. ”

A video of an underwater exploration appears on the wall, and the first thing that catches your eye is a seabed covered with seabed silt, with occasional fish and shrimp crawling over the seabed, a few deep-sea fish fishing for prey with lanterns, and occasionally a few rocks sticking out of the seabed silt with a few anemones attached to them.

There seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, similar to the appearance of most deep seabeds, and then the video suddenly began to change the detection method, and the field of view was lit up at the same time, and it could be seen that the jumble of rocks on the bottom of the sea had been extending from a distance.

It seems that there is still nothing special, at this time, the angle of view began to slowly rise, and the field of vision became larger and larger, and then Meng Yang saw something different, it seemed that this was a small basin under the sea, and the submarine was at the bottom of the basin at this time.

As the submarine ascended, more and more scenery came into view, and Meng Yang found that the basin was perfectly circular, and the arc of the terrain changes was unconventionally smooth and smooth, as if it had been modified by the map software.

As the angle of view rises, the bird's-eye view expands, and gradually, the rocks on the seabed become more and more irregular, and large chunks of rocks appear at the edge of the basin.

As the angle of view continues to rise, some strange stones begin to appear at the edge of the basin, which are relatively large in volume and have sharp edges and clear lines.

When the perspective rose to the highest point, Meng Yang suddenly found some stones with artificial traces at the edge of his field of vision, although these stones were covered and eroded by thick silt and sea life, but it was obvious from the general outline that they were definitely not natural products.

“boss！” That's when Dr. Octopus interjected, "This ruin is more than 10 kilometers in diameter, and most of the buildings have been completely destroyed, except for some suspected man-made structures that remain on the edges. ”

"Did you dig it out?"

"Not yet."

"Now that the organizing forces are starting to unearth, I want to know everything about this city."

"Yes!"

The ruins of a city of 10 kilometers are almost the size of the ancient city walls of Kyoto, which is the size of a capital city in ancient times.

In human perception, there has never been a civilization in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, let alone such a huge city. Obviously, this can only be built by creatures other than humans.

Maybe it was prehistoric humans, or, according to Mayan legend, a civilization from the last few Earth epochs, or simply a product of that alien civilization.

Humans have never been the only ones, both in the universe and on Earth, as the discovery of undersea ruins has once again confirmed this.

Doctor Octopus's movements were fast, and he didn't need to send a submarine from the base again, and the submarine that found the ruins unfolded directly on the spot, turned into a school of fish, preyed on the spot, and devoured a large number of submarine fish, and it didn't take long for several biological excavation teams to be ready.

These bio-excavation teams are very specialized, ranging from vacuum cleaner squid to clean up seabed silt, sandblasting octopus to clean up marine life on the surface of buildings, searchlight fish to provide lighting, and photographic fish to record......

The biological excavation team started from the center of the ruins and gradually cleaned it outward, and the seabed silt that had been deposited on the ruins for an unknown period of time was peeled off little by little, slowly revealing the original appearance of the ruins under the seabed silt.

The first thing that appeared in front of Meng Yang was an almost perfect spherical pit, this pit appeared very smooth, and the four walls were covered with some kind of crystals, which were full of cracked marks, although they were somewhat mutilated, but they were generally intact.

"Boss, a radiation anomaly has been detected, and the radioactivity here is obviously high!"

"Radioactive ......" a thought flashed through Meng Yang's mind, "...... Is this the crater of a nuclear explosion? ”

"Very likely." Doctor Octopus agreed.

If this is considered as the crater of a nuclear explosion, then everything is easily explained, whether it is its perfect symmetry, or the presence of vitreous in the center of the ruins, as well as radioactive residues, it seems that the answer can be found.

"The top view comes up and sees." Meng Yang said.

Looking back at this bird's-eye view again, it's easy to see that the oddly shaped rocks are a fitting way to think of them as buildings that collapsed under a nuclear explosion.

"Let's see how old these buildings were."

"Okay!" Doctor Octopus agreed, and a short time later, a newly-born fish began inspecting the ruined buildings.

"Boss, this ruin is at least 500,000 years old."

500,000 years ago, when human beings were still in the age of Homo erectus, belonged to ape-man, had not yet entered the stage of Homo sapiens, could use fire, could use paleolithic tools, lived in caves, would leave ignorant graffiti on the rock walls, and had not yet formed a language.

500,000-year-old city ruins...... I don't know what kind of species it is!

Under the remote control of Doctor Octopus, several excavation teams gradually unfolded inside the ruins, looking for clues and evidence left behind by this civilization.

Under the baptism of the nuclear bomb, the building in the center of the ruins was almost completely destroyed, and the powerful shock wave wiped out all the protrusions on the ground, and even the remaining solid parts were melted by the high temperature of the nuclear bomb, turning into glass and no longer recognizable.

In the wake of the nuclear bomb, seawater and sea life once again erased more of the details of the building's surface, and half a million years were enough for sea life to turn a square stone into a round stone.

The excavations were difficult, too old for very little useful information, until they extended to the edge of the crater, and some bits and pieces of information were gradually gathered.
