[Chapter 316: Inside the Ruins (Fill in Yesterday's Chapter)]
Three months ago, after the first team arrived on the moon and proved the existence of the site, Alphabet fulfilled all the requirements of Alihande and immediately launched a heavy machine to Earth, which weighed 29 tons and took up almost 80% of the supply of a launch mission.
The ruins are in an unnamed area on the far side of the moon, but now it has a name—the eye of the storm.
In three months, the first teams had successfully surveyed the size of the site, which ruled out the possibility of a spaceship and a permanent lunar base.
700 meters away from the transparent crystalline material exposed to the lunar surface, this place used the newly brought Bigelow Space inflatable capsule to build a second outpost base, the space is only more than 40 cubic meters, because it is only a transit station, so the space does not need to be too large, but it is more of a hoarding area.
At this moment, the lunar rover arrived from the first outpost, carrying Ali Hand and Cork on board.
Three or five people were working intensely on the surface of the moon, and at this point in time, the far side of the moon was no longer dark, and the sun's light had shone here.
Ali Hand disembarked from the rover and stared not far from the second outpost, where a fence had been mounted and several astronauts were surrounding it. Within the fence there is a diagonal hole with an inclination of more than 50 degrees and a diameter of more than two meters, and there are two parallel fixed rails at both ends of the diagonal hole, and a cable machine is fixed at the entrance of the hole.
“OK! Go ahead! Said an astronaut standing on the surface of the moon.
On parallel tracks there is a column of loading boxes holding a large number of liquid gas tanks, on which the symbols "oxygen" and "nitrogen" are marked. I saw the astronaut say, and the materials went deep into the inclined hole with the loading box, and the cable on the machine next to it continued to extend.
On the other side, Cork also disembarked from the lunar rover, but he also had a set of personal equipment, which seemed to be his own.
"Good morning, Dr. Alihand." The astronaut smiled when he turned around and saw the two new arrivals.
"Strictly speaking, it's afternoon." Cork said.
"How's the preparation going?" Ali Hand nodded and said, his eyes couldn't help but look towards the oblique hole.
"After a month of surveying and testing and excavation, we have identified a very empty underground space, which was cleared three weeks ago, and is now delivering the necessary oxygen to the interior of the lost base, so that we can have more living space underground and also save the company a lot of money." Astronaut Blair said.
After a while, the machinery out of the fence began to shrink the cable, and the loading box was pulled back to the lunar surface, and Brell looked at the two with a smile: "It's your turn." ”
Seeing Alihand and Cork stepping into the loading box, Brell checked the safety bolt repeatedly, and after making sure everything, he smiled and said, "Have a good trip, guys, go and meet our new home, someone else's home." ”
With that, he pressed a button on the table, and the load box began to slide towards the bottom of the diagonal hole. The hole was drilled by man, 80 meters long and more than 55 meters deep, with searchlights at the top of the hole every 3 meters, keeping the entire inclined passage in a bright state.
"It's time to enter an alien base." Cork said with a little excitement.
It took them nearly 20 days to drill this oblique hole, and after surveying, they found that there was a breach in the base at this location, so they naturally chose to enter the interior of the ruins base through here.
When he reached the finish line, another person was waiting for him, and for the two of them, this person was familiar, and it was Barry.
"What I want to know is, you GIs aren't messing with any of the equipment inside?" Ali Hand said as he stepped down from the loading box and looked at Barry.
"Always at your behest, Doctor." Barry laughed, and immediately led the two of them to the door.
When entering the interior of the base, Cork stared around with wide eyes, "Oh my God, it's a huge space!" This space is almost enough to fit the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier. ”
"This way, please! Two people. Barry laughed. In a few moments, they passed through a self-made enclosed entrance.
“OK! Get ready for an oxygen injection! Inside the space, a roar rang out over the communicator. The new separate space that the two of them came to was much smaller than the "hall" in front of them, only two-thirds the size of a football field, but it was too much for them to come to this space, knowing that this was the moon.
At this moment, more than ten bottles of liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen were frantically tilted out of the gas, Ali Hande looked at the equipment in his hand when he saw this, and it was showing that he was exposed to the outside air environment, the oxygen was gradually increasing, and the air pressure was also changing.
Twenty minutes later, the gas infusion was completed, and several bottles of liquid tanks were empty, Ali Hand looked at the monitor in his hand, and the environment such as air and pressure outside was the same as that of the earth or the outpost base at this moment. At that moment, Barry suddenly took off his helmet, and the others followed suit.
"Finally I don't have to live in that damn little Bigelow inflatable capsule." An astronaut who took off his helmet hit the metal on the ruins, "Listen to this metal sound, it is solid, pleasant, and so full of security, haha~~"
"Will these instruments still work?" After taking off his helmet, Ali Hand scanned everything in the space.
Barry shook his head and said, "As you wish, we don't dare to move anything, so we don't know, and at the same time we don't dare to inject energy into these devices, we are not experts but we have seen a lot of movies, God knows if it will touch some...... Taboo? For example, communication or something, so we use our own power-on equipment, you know, if we call some aliens, we're finished, we're digging their graves......"
"No, no! I don't think it's a product of an extraterrestrial civilization......" Cork muttered as he stared at the metal wall in a corner, his face thick with shock and his gaze unmoving.
"What did you say?" Ali Hand was shocked, everyone was amused by this sentence, this is not an alien man-made, is it an earthling? Are you kidding?
Coke pointed to the wall he was looking at, Ali Hand followed his hand, and after a moment he couldn't help frowning, "Hieroglyphs? Cuneiform? Or what? ”
But it must be words.
"As...... Lan ......" Coke said to himself as he stared at the text with motionless and puzzled eyes.
"What Aslan?" Barry couldn't help but say.
