The boulder figure is about the same as the human figure, and the length is about 150 meters.

The head is a little sharp, I don't know if it's the clan leader like this or artistic treatment.

At first, Rina and Yukio planned to use salvage equipment to drag the giant stone figure up, but they unexpectedly found it to be very heavy.

After another inspection, it was found that it weighed almost 50,000 tons, which was unbelievable.

There was no choice but to let the frigate and the scientific research ship come together, and use the traction of the scientific research ship and the strong thrust of the frigate to pull the stone statue up from a depth of 100 meters.

The ocean is surging with action, and when the stone statue is lifted from under the water, the water vapor fills the surroundings, and countless rainbows are illuminated by the sun.

"Everything works!"

"The ship is working well."

The operator reported the progress of the salvage, and Yukio also said to Reina.

"Reina, pull this statue to the shore, and I'll send an underwater probe to see how the city is going."

"No problem~"

Rina replied to Yukio in a girlish manner, pulling the giant stone figure towards the shore a few kilometers away.

After the surging of the sea subsided, the hatch of a ship parked on the water opened, and Yukio stepped out of it, holding multiple devices to continue exploring the underwater city.

It didn't take long for the reports of the two to reach Gao Shuling.

After rina cleaned up the sludge and algae attached to the stone statue with delicate instruments, the appearance of the giant stone figure was also revealed.

"It's very similar to a human, but the head is pointy and the eyes are a little big, is this what the Lraye people look like?"

In the face of Lina's question, Gao Shuling couldn't answer it for the time being, judging from the remaining traces, the people of Lalaye should not be like this.

And this kind of stone statue is a little bare, why didn't the carving master add the depiction of clothing?

Soon, Yukio's undersea city exploration project was nearing completion.

It's similar to a city on land, except that the buildings are obviously hit to varying degrees, like a dilapidated scene after a great war.

"In my engineering experience, the city looks like it's been smashed by a sledgehammer, and the rocks scattered here and there don't look like they've been attacked with high-powered weapons."

"Interestingly, the civilization data model of this underwater city can also be scanned for clues, and it should be able to merge with your model in a few days."

The two of them are like students handing in their homework, telling Gao Shuling their insights and discoveries.

Gao Shuling also nodded with satisfaction, "Well, you two have done a good job, continue to explore, and also explore the ocean surface in another area." ”

Rina and Yukio quit the newsletter when they were given a new project and moved on to the next location for an exploration project.

Later in the evening, Yuan Dawu's discovery in the Eastern Hemisphere was also reported back to his mentor.

At this time, he had just finished building a detection device in the jungle under the volcano, and the area was similar to a tropical rainforest, but there was no mosquito or reptile infestation, which was much more comfortable.

"Although this active volcano is active, the probability of an eruption is not high, and the exploration of the earth's crustal structure has not yet begun, and there should be a result in a few days."

"Well, you pay attention to safety, the data detected by Rina and Yukio has been synchronized to the scientific research project, you can study it more."

"Okay, I got it."

In the face of the mentor's concern, Yuan Dawu was very grateful.

In addition to being a mentor, Gao Shuling is also his distant relative, and this project can be regarded as a test for him, and if it is successfully completed, it is not impossible to establish his own department.

Four days later, the second phase of exploration of the planet Lalaye was completed.

Everyone's understanding of the Lalaye civilization has deepened to another level.

In the temporary scientific research station, except for Yuan Dawu's absence at the scene, it is still Lina who reports the integrated civilization model to everyone.

"After our exploration these days, we can be sure that the Lalaye civilization should have entered a highly information age......"

Along with her explanation, the combat team understands what kind of level this Lalaye civilization is.

It can be said that the highly information age is similar to the current civilian technology in Daxia, but there is no advanced technology similar to ultra-long-distance communication.

They are one step away from stepping into space civilization.

As long as the global administrative organization is unified and the space technology is developed together, perhaps the entire race will no longer be limited to one planet, and can develop the huge resources in the galaxy and enter the era of technological explosion.

However, it is a pity that although the Lalaye civilization has developed the prototype of a space battleship, it seems to have stopped at the pace of global unification.

"Although the Lalaye civilization has the ability to coordinate all administrative organizations, there are still constant frictions and frequent wars."

"Later, due to the shortage of resources, various administrative organizations stopped the research and development of aviation, and entered the final era of war."

"As a result, the planet Lalaye was heavily polluted and its habitability rapidly declined until the era of their extinction came....."

Speaking of this, Lina's tone is also a little heavy, as a sociologist, she will inevitably substitute for it.

This is a classic example of a civilization trapped on a planet.

This is not the case with human civilization, if it had not entered the era of unification, Great Xia would not have become an interstellar civilization and achieved its current achievements.

"Wait, Miss Reina, what's going on with that megalith? You don't think you said it yet. One soldier asked curiously.

Indeed, Rina has just described the development of the entire civilization, but what is the matter with this stone statue?

Could it be the product of the whim of an administrative organization?

The soldier's curiosity is actually the confusion of everyone.

Even Gao Shu Zero is thinking about this issue, because there are more and more mysteries about stone statues and the demise of civilization.

Rina gathered her thoughts and began to continue talking.

"Let's start with the boulder figures."

"After our inspection, we found that the density of the matter that made up this statue was much higher than we thought, which means that it may not be a product of this planet."

"And the demise of the Lalaye civilization is also very strange."

"Judging from the scale of their development, the resources of the planet Lalaye should allow them to hold on for another four or five hundred years, but they suddenly died one day, leaving no obvious signs."

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers were surprised, could it be that the Lalaye civilization was destroyed by aliens?

"So, regarding the exploration of the Laleiye civilization, I think we need to explore further."

After a long story, Rina came to the final conclusion.

After this meeting, everyone became more interested in the mystery of Laleyer, and the third stage of detailed exploration began.

And in the Eastern Hemisphere, Yuan Dawu also made new discoveries.

After completing a project to detect the movement of the earth's crust, he came to a curious conclusion.

The crust beneath that volcano is normal, and it does not seem to have formed as a volcano due to changes in the internal stresses of the earth's crust.

It is well known that volcanoes are formed because the earth's crust is pressed against each other.

But under Yuan Dawu's scanning, the earth's crust in this area is intact, and there are no obvious signs of fracture.

He wondered what was going on if the volcano wasn't caused by crustal movements.

Looking at the volcano that spewed out some dust, Yuan Dawu felt a little inexplicable in his heart.

"I feel like I should go over and have a look...."
