Chapter 164: Unknown Object
(Not modified, please ...... later) )
"Xiao Yin, have you arrived?"
Seeing that the detector was hovering, Yang Meng asked Xiao Yin in a loud voice,
"Now that we've arrived, above the target point,
Probing!"
"Coming soon, sonar detector!"
With Xiao Yin's voice,
The C-end camera under the detector can be clearly seen,
A black cylindrical device,
Break away from the detector and head towards the ocean below,
"651 meters high!"
"Entering the water!"
Xiao Yin's voice sounded again,
And in the video, the cylindrical device has disappeared from view,
In the raging sea below, the waves that continue to form make it impossible for Yang Meng to judge with the naked eye whether the released detection device has entered the sea.
Because the released detection device is in free fall,
It wasn't until 58 seconds later that Xiao Yin's voice sounded again,
"Image data received!"
"Decoding and converting......
Soon a new picture appeared on the screen in front of Yang Meng's eyes,
It's a very dark ocean,
Compared to the front surface of the ocean on Earth, the magnificent blue seascape,
There is only a gray and dark tour here.
"A current has been detected and is being measured!"
"Microorganisms detected, trying to collect ......"
"The passive sonar receiver has been turned on!"
"Coming soon!"
The detector carried out the detection work little by little according to the predetermined detection task.
"No active excitation sonar source found, do you turn on the sonar detection device?"
Hearing Xiao Yin ask him for instructions, Yang Meng shook his head and said:
"Don't wait for the sonar!"
Yang Meng knows very well that when no moving object is detected,
Turning on sonar may reveal something,
The so-called sonar, to put it simply,
It is to shout in the sea,
Water is a better medium for sound conduction than air,
When the shouting sounds,
When you touch something, it will make an echo,
Something is determined by echolocation.
Of course, the principle is very simple, but the actual operation is very troublesome.
He is now asking Xiao Yin to shout in the sea,
This very arrogant behavior seems to announce his arrival,
Yang Meng is not sure if sonar will be heard on an unknown moving object in the sea.
All he had to do now was quietly explore.
……
Under the command of Yang Meng,
The probe continues to go deeper,
Compared to the oceans on Earth,
On the cloudy Planet B, the probe went into the darkness faster
But it has entered the dark environment,
There is still no light coming out of the underwater detector,
The entire installation is in a state of silent darkness,
Looking at the pitch-black screen, Yang Meng frowned slightly,
"I wonder how long it will take to reach the target area?
Although Xiaoguang determined that there were some unknown moving objects in the sea,
Yang Meng also used supercomputing to mark these unknown moving objects.
But how deep these marked points are from the ocean surface,
What kind of structure it is, how big it is, Yang Meng doesn't know.
He had expected his detection device to descend deeper to touch something.
But when the depth data reaches a depth of about 320 meters,
The detector finally found some anomalies,
"Attention, anomalous heat flow has been detected!"
"Heat flow, how abnormal!"
This is the detector sending back new data,
Yang Meng fixed his eyes and looked at it,
There was a look of surprise on his face,
Because of the long time in the diurnal hemisphere, the sea temperature here is very high,
When the detector has just entered the water,
I detected that the temperature of the water had exceeded 30 degrees.
And as the depth decreases,
The temperature in the sea is also very much in line with the laws of physics, and there is a drop.
When we got to the position where we were 300 meters,
The sea temperature is only about 21 degrees Celsius.
But at this time, the probe went to hit a horizontal heat stream.
The temperature of this heat flow has exceeded 40 degrees.
"It doesn't look like this heat flow is due to environmental factors!"
A small light on the side, flickering and issuing its own evaluation,
And hearing the voice of the little light,
Yang Meng pondered for a moment and continued to ask:
"Is there a temperature gradient in the heat flow?"
"Whether! transverse probing along the heat flow,"
"Yes!"
With Yang Meng's answer,
The original diving detection device,
Started to move in the direction of the heat flow,
Soon,
Xiao Yin's obtained new data,
"After testing, there is a temperature change,
The relationship is that there is a positive correlation between the temperature rise and the direction of the countercurrent!"
"In other words, the more you go against the heat, the higher the temperature!"
"It looks like there's a heat source ahead!"
"Xiao Yin, let the probe catch up and take a look, and by the way, detect the substances in the heat source!"
"Understood!"
With Yang Meng's instructions,
The probe completely changed its direction, like a torpedo diving to the bottom of the water, quietly heading in the direction of the heat flow.
And while the probe is traveling,
Some of the detection data on the composition of the heat flow have also been analyzed.
Most of the above data are the same as the surrounding seawater material, and the main component is water.
However, when Yang Meng saw one of the data, the expression on his face became a little strange:
"Xiao Yin, are you sure that urea is present in the heat flow?"
"Yes!"
Hearing Yang Meng's inquiry, Xiao Yin answered this question with great certainty,
Although it is known that the detection accuracy of the detector is more than 99%,
But seeing such data, Yang Meng still has some hard time believing it:
"What the hell is the probe navigating through?"
Xiaoguang on the side, seeing Yang Meng, who has always been calm, his expression is constantly changing,
Flickering asked:
"Is there anything wrong with this urea?"
Hearing Xiaoguang's inquiry, Yang Meng glanced at it with strange eyes, this flickering energy body:
"Wouldn't you, as a living being before, be metabolically active?"
"Metabolism!"
Yang Meng didn't know how Xiao Yin accurately translated the word metabolism to Xiao Guang,
But from the reaction of the small light,
It can be seen that it understands the meaning of metabolism.
"The feeling of metabolism has been a long time ago!"
"Since there are metabolites coming out of the things in front of you
That means there's a good chance that there are large creatures ahead!"
"Indeed!" Yang Meng nodded slightly,
"And we'll be able to catch up with what's ahead of us soon!"
"How can you be sure it's not far!"
Hearing Xiaoguang's doubts, Yang Meng shook his head and didn't explain too much,
After all, as a small light of energy body,
Human beings, who are unable to understand living organisms, breed metabolites in the ocean, meet with seawater, and the changes in density and temperature that occur,
"Judging by the temperature and the diameter of the heat flow!"
"Something up front could be huge!"
……
It was also when Xiaoguang and Yang Meng exchanged metabolic problems,
The detector has made a new discovery here,
"The detector has detected multiple faint sound wave signals!"
With Xiao Yin's voice,
A graph of the data appeared on the screen,
Although the source of the sound wave above is not large,
But the number is very large.
A variety of dense sound wave source points are formed together to form a large sound wave structure in the form of clusters.
Seeing this, Xiaoguang flickered violently:
"Looks like we've found our target!"
Hearing Xiaoguang's words,
Yang Meng nodded slightly, and also stared at the screen tightly.
……
In the face of the imminent unknown object,
The process of proximity of the detector is more cautious,
Its speed has slowed down,
Fortunately, human beings have been around for a hundred years,
The silent navigation of submarines and torpedoes is very mature.
In this era,
Want to be quietly close to something in the middle of the sea,
It's a very easy thing to do.
"The passive sonar unit has determined a new position!"
"The unknown object in front of us is currently 100 meters!"
Although it is only 100 meters away from an unknown object,
But the surrounding sea is still pitch black, and you can't see anything.
There is a water block, and many detection methods are useless.
And looking at the abnormal sea temperature around you,
Yang Meng thought for a moment and gave instructions to Xiao Yin:
"Turn on the infrared detection device!"
"Attention! In liquid environments, infrared detection devices may not be able to detect valid data!"
"I know! Turn on the infrared detector!"
"Understood!"
Xiao Yin confirmed with Yang Meng that after turning on the infrared detection device in the sea and being easily disturbed,
Seeing that Yang Meng insisted on opening this detection method,
and immediately carried out such an instruction,
In the middle of the sea, you can't see much distance with thermal imaging turned on,
But here,
As new probe data comes back,
It can be clearly detected in the front,
A huge red cluster of light against a dark background blue,
And in the process of infrared detection by the detector,
The probe is only ten meters away from an unknown object,
At such a distance,
There is no light, and there is still nothing to see ahead.
But with the change of water flow and the detection of sonar receivers,
It can be determined that
There's a behemoth ahead,
On an object, it can be seen with an infrared detector
There is a large amount of heat flowing from the direction of its tail.
"This seems to be the power system of this thing!"
Xiaoguang looked at several detection methods, and the detected data flashed and analyzed,
"What's next?"
"Why don't you turn on the light source on the probe and see what this sea is all about?"
"Turn on the light source?"
Hearing Xiaoguang's suggestion, Yang Meng groaned,
In such a dark environment,
Turning on a searchlight is a very dangerous thing,
But if you don't turn on the lights and want to completely understand the appearance of the thing in front of you, you have to use more risky methods.
"That's it!"
Just when Yang Meng was going to make a decision,
Xiao Yin's voice has changed:
"Notice that the flow of traffic around the unknown object has changed!"
Hearing Xiao Yin's voice,
Yang Meng hurriedly looked at the screen,
The jet behind the unknown object began to change direction.
More importantly,
It would have been possible to detect the presence of noisy sonar on unknown objects,
At this time, it suddenly quieted down,
Seeing such a situation, Yang Meng was shocked:
"Did you find out?"
"Attention! Depending on the surrounding jets, an unknown object is floating!"
"Float!"
Hearing Xiao Yin's analysis, Yang Meng was stunned for a moment, and then gave instructions to Xiao Yin again:
"After keeping a distance of 20 meters from an unknown object!"
"Understood!"
Environments without light sources,
Whether it's land or sea,
At a distance of twenty meters, it has gone beyond the detection function in various optical senses,
Even if it's a human being,
Blindness can also occur when the room is completely dark.
Unless there are other means of detection,
to see something.
Yang Meng believes that in such a dark environment,
If the object in front of you is some kind of large creature,
It's likely to evolve out,
Some detection capabilities in this environmental state,
Although it is not possible to determine whether it was found or not,
But Yang Meng still kept the detector in a cautious state of detection.
……
The ascent of the unknown object continues,
Soon arrived at a position of 200 meters from the sea,
But this unknown object did not stop the process of floating,
Still floating,
100 meters
50 meters,
Looking at the ever-changing depth data,
Yang Meng muttered secretly:
"Is it going to come to the surface?"
He was very strange about the behavior of unknown objects.
Before entering the ocean process,
Yang Meng knows very well,
How harsh the climatic conditions are on the oceans,
climate with black clouds,
Raging waves,
Such an environment would give anything that poked out of the ocean a head-on blow.
"Is it just a superficial environment?"
Yang Meng secretly guessed,
"But no matter how you wait for the light to appear, you can see what is happening at this time!"
At this time, as the unknown object approaches the surface of the ocean,
The surrounding currents are no longer as calm as they are in the depths,
A variety of complex and extremely fast ocean currents,
It makes the area close to the sea very dangerous.
And in addition to the appearance of ocean currents,
More importantly, the appearance of light sources,
At a distance of 23 meters from the sea surface,
There was some gray light above,
And in this light,
Yang Meng can clearly see through the screen on the detector,
There's a huge black shadow on it,
Because there is no reference, Yang Meng doesn't know how big this black shadow is.
But the image analysis device on the detector,
The parallax method, which is compared to itself, determines the size of the object above:
"It's so big!"
Although Yang Meng had expected that this thing might be big,
But I never thought that the maximum length of this unknown thing would exceed 10 kilometers.
You know,
The length of the aircraft carriers of mankind a hundred years ago was mostly about 100 meters,
ten kilometers, placed on the earth almost the size of a small city,
"What the hell is this?"
Just when Yang Meng was confused,
Suddenly the top lit up,
The sea was originally gray
An extremely bright point of light appeared,
The planet sun is out,
And as the sun appeared, the gray-black ocean became brighter,
A blue sight slowly emerged,
More importantly,
According to the detection data of the detector,
The chaotic ocean currents around him have calmed down,
"Did you enter a windless area?"
And with the appearance of the light, Yang Meng finally saw the position object above:
"Stones! Stones full of hollows!"
"This ......"
When he saw what the unknown object was, Yang Meng was a little disappointed.
