Chapter 327: Molecular Devices

Barack unilaterally canceled the visit to Vietnam and immediately ordered the "Air Force One" to return to its home, without mentioning the consternation and confusion of the Vietnamese side, and when the "Air Force One" arrived in Hawaii to refuel, the original National Guard was evacuated to the periphery of the original address in St. Anou City, and the interior was garrisoned by troops sent by the Federation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Several Chinook transport planes flew in the distance, and under the roar of heavy engines, the rotors slowly slowed down and came to a halt when they reached the ground.

The weather in the afternoon was not too good, compared to the sunny sky in the morning, dark clouds from unknown places obscured most of the sky, making the sky suddenly darken, and there was a faint electric snake stretching in it, and it seemed that a thunderstorm was brewing in the dark clouds.

Lieutenant General Hunt didn't care much about the weather, his eyebrows furrowed together, and he walked out of the hatch a little carelessly. A controversy at the Pentagon has put the whole country in a state of emergency.

Compared with 911, the damage caused by this incident is obviously greater, an entire modern city has disappeared without a trace, and nearly 100,000 people are missing, no matter how you look at it, it is an earth-shattering event.

If it was determined to be a terrorist attack, it would be a ......

Hunter shook his head, not wanting to think about the consequences.

When he recalled, he saw news media vehicles from all over the country on the outskirts of the forest, densely packed with almost more than armored vehicles, and if it weren't for the prescient sending soldiers to blockade them, these daring reporters would have crossed the mountains to take pictures.

What is a headache for the Pentagon is that even though the entire area where the incident took place was quickly cordoned off, the news was inevitably leaked. First, the loss of contact with the city of Santa Anou has attracted a lot of attention, second, the survivors have also hyped it, and third, the governor's daughter, as a journalist, has ignored the regulations and leaked secrets.

This directly caused a sensation throughout the United States this morning.

No, soon, it won't be long before the eyes of the world will be on here.

Terrible rumors spread on the Internet, some believe that the meteorite caused the destruction of the whole city, others say that it is a terrorist attack, and there are also rumors of biochemical leaks, earthquakes, mudslides and other disasters, all in all, there is a terrible accident in the city of St. Annu, which caused the city to disappear without a trace, and it has become a consensus.

Just because the governor's daughter did a good job.

The filmed video was uploaded to YouTube, resulting in more than 10 million hits within a few hours, and the relevant departments had no time to block it, and this video filmed in the entire city of Santa Anou was circulated to major media websites, and was also broadcast urgently, not counting TV broadcasts, the total number of hits on the Internet alone is close to more than 50 million.

This has put a lot of pressure on the part of the government.

There are endless accusations against the Washington government, television and phone calls, social media is full of discussions on the matter, and countless people in the surrounding cities are driving to this side, especially the more than 100,000 people in St. Anou, and there are countless relatives and friends who are related to them all over the country, either making phone calls or flying direct flights.

One can imagine how strongly blamed and heavily pressured the Pentagon's order to seal off the surrounding area and not let anyone in in the next few days.

But it's true that irrelevant people can't be let in.

That "thing"...... It's incredible, the "Aurora" that appears in the north of the city is a top-secret information that can't be exposed!

Hunt stepped down from the cabin, raised his head, crossed the barracks with barbed wire and temporary board houses, and saw the layer of distorted light, forming a colorful "aurora", Rao was still in shock after watching the relevant video.

"General, General!"

Hunter, who had been shouted several times in a row, replied, "Are you in charge here, Colonel?" ”

"Yes, General, Breed reports to you."

He saluted Hunter, a tall man with brown hair and a serious look in his eyes.

"How's it going?"

"General, all the passages have been blocked, and the temporary camp is being built, which is expected to be completed tomorrow......"

Walking with Hunter and talking about the current situation, when the two arrived at the camp, they walked into one of the rather large tents, which were densely covered with more than a dozen monitors, and technical officers in military uniforms were watching the monitoring data.

"This is Dr. Lyon, Dr. Ryder......"

In addition to these people in the tent, there were also members of the investigation team who had been waiting for a long time, many of them were USGS geologists, and when they saw a general approaching, they hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with him.

"Good afternoon, everyone, as you probably know, the situation is serious right now, and there is not much time to waste, so ...... I want to know something, like all the information you have at the moment? ”

Several geologists looked at each other, and it was Dr. Ryder who spoke, "General, we have already determined the chemical composition and some properties of the soil and rocks when we came......"

On the tablet that Dr. Ryder brought, the data from the soil measurements showed silicon, aluminum, iron, manganese, titanium, and the active ingredients nitrate nitrogen and available phosphorus. But that doesn't mean anything to Hunter, and handing it over will only provoke the Pentagon's displeasure.

The Pentagon doesn't want data, it wants concrete results.

Before Hunter could speak, as if knowing that he was not satisfied, Dr. Ryder continued, "We have determined the properties of the soil and sedimentary rocks, although there are still some data that are not immediately available...... However, Your Excellency, we can tell you very well that no meteorite composition has been found, and no radiation values have been found to be exceeded. ”

"You're saying you didn't find anything?" Hunter bluntly interrupted Dr. Ryder.

"No, no, Your Excellency, as I said, the geology here is normal, but not naturally formed, but clearly man-made; What kind of tools were used to do it, well, overnight, we don't have information on that at the moment. ”

"But, but it's interesting that we discovered this when we were measuring the soil structure with a mercury injection perforator......"

He swiped the screen with his right hand, revealing a photograph from the scanning electron microscope.

"What is this?"

Hunter was stunned.

In this photograph, there are many tiny white particles between the apertures, like a lot of chopped rice grains mixed with the sand.

"These things are found in all the soils, well, I'm talking about the 'basin', but not in the faulty soils that are a centimeter away. They are about 5 nanometers in diameter and look like ants......"

With a swipe of his hand, the photo that appeared again was enlarged a lot, and this time Hunter was not stunned, but his pupils couldn't help but constrict.

The rice grains just now, after corrosion, and then adjusted the gray scale treatment and corrected, the rice grains after enlargement are really like termites lying on the wall.

But how is this possible, 5 nanometer termites?

What kind of joke is this?

"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"Your Excellency, I'm not joking at such a moment."

"And what are these?"

"I don't know. However, we suspect that it is some kind of man-made technological product, it is not bacteria and some kind of living thing...... Perhaps Dr. Carrey would explain this better. ”

"Hello, Your Excellency."

On the monitor next to it, a bearded man stands wearily in front of the camera. Behind him are busy researchers.

"I'm Elon Carry of Materials Science and Computer Science at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory."

"Hello, Dr. Carry."

"The samples came in very quickly, and we did a quick sample analysis. We just got the results, which should be a microstructure with an outer layer of graphene, an intermediate layer of nickel, and an inner layer of platinum and silicon. ”

He paused before he said cautiously: "That's right, this is a 'functional molecular device' designed and manufactured according to the principles of biology at the molecular level, that is, a nanorobot. (To be continued.) )
