[Chapter 582: Fear of Light]

……

As soon as Ren Hong issued the latest command to the Mars locomotive under his feet, Yang Licheng issued the highest alert to the whole team, and at the same time walked out of the temporary control cabin. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Deep underground, there are more than 30 adult snake lizards, each of which is the size of an adult Nile crocodile, capable of unleashing deadly electricity and nightmarish acidic corrosion, and anyone who is close to such a beast will not have any power to fight back, except to use thermal weapons to kill them at a distance.

Yang Licheng is naturally right to make such a reaction, everything is people-oriented. However, it is precisely because of the limited knowledge of the indigenous creatures of Mars that otherwise it would not be so nervous.

Deep underground, the Mars rover found the smaller one of the more than 30 spheroids, and used a robotic arm to peel off several layers of fermentation on top of the spherical yeast layer.

Ren Hong was more worried about whether taking the biological DNA of the snake lizard beast in this way would wake up these hibernators, but only by thoroughly understanding them can they have a foothold on Mars, and about their DNA samples, Ren Hong is bound to get them.

Considering that the snake lizard is capable of secreting a strong acidic corrosive liquid, the syringe, i.e., the spinal needle, is also made of special materials.

Fortunately, the bad thing he expected did not happen, and like the hibernating creatures on Earth, the snake lizard was also very weak during this time, and it did not wake up when the mechanical arm of the Martian locomotive penetrated deep into the yeast layer and pierced the hibernating snake lizard.

Now that the DNA biological samples of the snake lizard have been collected and the Martian rover has not carried out the mission to continue the dive, it is very likely that there is liquid water beneath the Pezos volcano, and if it is confirmed, it will be of great significance.

However, Ren Hong and the others did not come to Mars to explore and discover, so these were left to the Americans to study.

The Explorer returned to the Martian surface along its original route, returning faster and without a stopover, but even so, by the time the Explorer reappeared at the mouth of the cave, more than an hour had passed since dusk.

Yang Licheng and the armed tactical team saw that the sky was getting darker and darker, and the state of alert was getting higher and higher, the night of Mars did not seem to be welcomed by them, all the members of the armed tactical team were like facing a big enemy, and the "Mars Observer 5" in space was also closely monitoring the Pezos area throughout the whole process, as long as the unknown life signal was detected and there was a phenomenon of movement, the news would be immediately transmitted to the local armed tactical team.

At 19:28 a.m. on board the "Red Eagle", the "Explorer" Mars rover finally returned to the ground. Commander Yang Licheng was also relieved to see that there was no danger, but he didn't dare to relax, now is the night of Mars, the most dangerous moment, and the tragic lesson of the outpost base is in front of him, and there is no room for the slightest sloppiness.

Ren Hong took down the DNA biological samples collected by the Mars rover for the first time, Yang Licheng waved his hand after confirmation, and the whole team retreated in an orderly manner in vigilance, waiting for everyone to return to the rover, the engine started, and went straight to the "Red Eagle" spacecraft.

More than half an hour later, the rover arrived around the "Red Eagle-002", and the members of the rover got out of the car and headed for the spacecraft, where the rover was placed and will not return to space.

As the team entered the spacecraft, the astronaut pilot Xiaozhuang, who had been waiting for a long time, started the "Red Eagle" engine again, and the huge spacecraft slowly advanced on the flat sandy field, when the spacecraft took off and ran for 1250 meters on the sand, the sub-engine of the spacecraft chassis was started instantly, and the engine mouth sprayed a blue tail flame frantically towards the bottom.

The "Red Eagle-002" slowly lifted off into the sky, and its speed became faster and faster, showing a touch of starlight across the sky in the dark night, heading straight for the "Firefly space station".

Ren Hong, who returned to space again, did not stop to rest, and immediately took the DNA biological sample of the snake lizard beast to the No. 3 experimental module of the "Firefly Space Station" to devote himself to research and analysis.

Due to the current cooperative relationship between the two parties, according to the terms of the sharing agreement, the Americans also took away a biological DNA biological sample, and the United States is not as broad as CMSX, so it directly brought a biological laboratory to Mars, and obtained a DNA biological sample can only be studied after it is sent back to Earth.

However, Americans are also happy to see that according to the terms of the sharing agreement, they can also get a copy of the data of the snake and lizard beast at that time, although the other party may also hide something, but it doesn't matter much, even if it is hidden, it will be possible to get results when it returns to Earth for the DNA biological samples obtained, and the Americans are happy to see that they can get benefits without spending money.

However, it is worth mentioning that the Americans brought this DNA biological sample back to Earth and brought nightmares, and in the later chaos and order of the world, whenever someone mentioned the word "night demon", no one heard the color changed, so that people's fear of darkness lingered, and no one dared to walk at night.

That's all for another time, and it will be another twenty or thirty years for the 'Daredevil' to rule the night on the American continent.

Returning to the "Firefly" space station, there was no further mission for half a month, and there was no landing operation, everything had to wait for the DNA biological samples of the snake lizard to be analyzed.

The expansive CMSX directly brought a set of replication equipment, a quantum computer, apparently to use the obtained DNA biological sample genetic data to replicate a new individual.

The replication equipment was fine-tuned according to the current information of the snake lizard, mainly for the acidic corrosion and strong current of this kind of creature, and the equipment was fine-tuned in a week, and half a month later, a newborn larvae appeared in the No. 3 experimental cabin.

"Ari, package and send all the data related to the snake lizard back to the company's corporate headquarters, and encrypt it at the first level." Ren Hong stared at the gray hatchlings in the transparent isolation cabin.

"Boss, the data has been sent back." Assistant Xiao Kerui came to him and said.

Ren Hong nodded slightly, stared at the juvenile snake lizard in the isolation cabin, and said to himself: "My guess is basically right, they live underground, you see, snake lizards have no eyes, and have completely degraded this organ, replaced by an extremely sensitive sense of smell and echolocation, the air on Mars is thin, and this kind of creature will definitely be more like a fish in water if it lives on the earth with a comfortable environment." ”

"Now it's finally possible to explain why they were able to enter the Martian surface to attack the Americans' bases, look at its neck." Ren Hong glanced at it and said: "Similar to the camel hump, the camel is the master of survival in the desert where water is extremely scarce, their hump fat contains a lot of water, and the snake lizard also has such a functional organ, not only that, but also exceeding, the snake lizard beast can directly store liquid water." ”

"The presence of this organ allows them to move away from water and move on Martian land, carrying enough water to meet the oxygen needs of electrolysis of water."

Ren Hong looked at the hatchlings in the isolation cabin in amazement: "Hundreds of millions of years of evolution, even in the face of the Martian world, which is like a forbidden area of life, they still survived, this is the real master of survival." ”
