A fiery earth.

At this time, Wang Chen had already led a group of people to carefully walk into the bottom of the valley along the entrance of the rift valley.

On both sides are rising cliffs, and the path below is not too wide, but it is barely enough for everyone to walk forward.

The entire exploration team was divided into three parts, the front was the pathfinding team, the middle was the rescue and equipment team, and Wang Chen himself walked at the back with a small group of people.

It's not that Wang Chen is afraid of death, but that the above asks for it.

Hiding in the car, looking at the picture transmitted by the advance team in front, the more you walk, the more tattered the road ahead becomes.

After all, the interior of Mars is still relatively active, and earthquakes are not rare.

Although they are all relatively low-level earthquakes, there are many of them.

There are also a lot of rocks piled up in this canyon, but fortunately, with robots following, it is not too difficult to clean up.

It took more than an hour to stop and go, and the group barely reached the end of the canyon.

This canyon crack has been cut in front, leaving only an irregular space about twenty meters in diameter.

On the innermost rock wall, a dusty black gate can already be seen.

When Wang Chen arrived, the advance team had already begun to set up simple ziplines on the rock walls on both sides.

These ropeways lead to the top of the rock wall, and if something happens, a person can be hoisted up in less than a minute.

The spacecraft had also sailed from the landing site to the top of the target again.

will be hovering here as a backing.

Jumping out of the car, Wang Chen didn't care about the people on both sides, but walked directly to the gate.

I thought it would take some time to find this, but it turned out that the door was so open and leaked here, which saved a lot of trouble.

When I walked to the door, I couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

"This is the gate to that base?" Li Long also came over a little curious.

"Look at what's on the gate." Wang Chen, who was touching the door, smiled and pointed to the somewhat large statue at the top.

Li Long looked up, took a few steps back, and then said uncertainly, "Phoenix? ”

"That's right." Looking left and right, Wang Chen looked for a long time and did not see the identification device of the gate.

"Don't look at that, help me find the mechanism of this gate."

greeted Li Long, and the two looked left and right for a long time, but they didn't find anything suspected to be a mechanism.

"I mean, it can't be remote-controlled, right?"

It's just such a door, and there is nothing else, and I have been looking back and forth for a long time, and I have not found anything good.

Touching his chin, Li Long tilted his head and asked.

"Impossible, there must be something we haven't seen, and if you can't see it with the naked eye, then go to the last issue and see if it's built-in."

Wang Chen frowned.

"Okay, I'll arrange someone."

Soon, dozens of followers began to search the surroundings with various instruments.

But until the evening, there was still no progress.

In desperation, Wang Chen could only let everyone return to the spaceship along the slipways on both sides first.

The environment on Mars is too harsh, and you have to get enough sleep.

However, Wang Chen left most of the robots below and continued to search with the help of exploration instruments.

Anyway, the robot doesn't need to rest, just let the two dogs watch.

At night, there was even a lot of sandstorms around the ship.

Although it didn't have any effect on the spaceship, there was still a slight fear when I looked at the black sandstorm outside the window through the glass.

If something goes wrong with this Nima, everyone has to explain it here.

In the second half of the night, the spaceship was firmly locked to the ground with the help of fixtures, and it was not until the next afternoon that after the sandstorm went away, Wang Chen, who went out, saw that a thick layer of dust had accumulated under the spacecraft.

Fortunately, there is no impression under the canyon, after all, the wind and sand are blown from above, so strong wind will not have much sand and dust falling into the canyon.

On the contrary, the strong wind reduced the dust on the cliff walls on both sides of the canyon a lot.

As soon as the wind poured in, it tossed back and forth on the rock wall, like a broom.

The gate is also much cleaner, and the phoenix icon on it already looks quite clear.

This is a phoenix with wings flapping and flying high, and the carving is very detailed.

Standing a little farther away and admiring it for a while, Wang Chen beckoned everyone to continue looking for the mechanism to enter the door.

A month later...

One good news, one bad news.

The bad news is that unusual weather on Mars has become very frequent lately, with violent dust storms for most of the month.

As a result, everyone's work is progressing very slowly.

And the good news is that the place to get started has finally been found.

The process was also a bit dramatic, originally I had been looking for it for a long time, just when Wang Chen thought that this damn gate had no external devices, yesterday afternoon.

While everyone was resting, one of them was sitting on a stone and suddenly felt a tremor in his hips.

At first, I thought it was a damn earthquake, and I was just about to tell everyone to be careful, but I felt that something was wrong.

Standing up and looking down, there was a glimmer of light on the originally gray stone.

When Wang Chen rushed over, the stone had already been cleared.

This is a stone, a crouching identifier.

It's just that due to the long period of wind and sand, the dust has accumulated on it.

If it weren't for this, the shell on the mecha would have pushed the dust open and touched the screen below, and it would have been a month before it could be found.

This may be the so-called darkness under the lights.

But in the end, it's good news, I've been looking for this guy for a month, and if I can't find it, Wang Chen is thinking about simply slamming the door open.

The screen was carefully cleared, and a touch of blue light quickly intertwined into a virtual screen in mid-air.

There are a lot of characters written on it, and it looks a bit like the so-called oracle bones of the earth.

"Virtual imaging? It also comes with an interactive system. Looking at this screen, Wang Chen also sighed twice.

Isn't this a common black technology in movies?

If it weren't for this incident on the earth, Wang Chen would have planned to study this thing.

"Boss, can you understand this?" Li Long stared at the screen for a while, touched his head and asked curiously.

The characters on this are clearly not terrestrial script.

"I don't know." Shrugging, Wang Chen said very simply.

"So what's going on?"

"Don't worry, you don't have to know words to get in, just let it know me."

Patting Li Long on the shoulder, Wang Chen took two steps forward after saying with a smile.

It is true that he does not recognize the meaning of these fonts, but Phoenix has already told him how to enter the gate of this base that day.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

Tried reaching out and touching the screen twice.

Looking at the interface that really changed, the corners of Wang Chen's mouth curled slightly, and then he began to operate.

"Third from left, second from right, fourth from below..."
