From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Chapter 521 The World Shakes, Jayden Disappears
Tian Chariot.

"Damn, their speed is so fast? Does this mean you don't want to live?"

Zhang Wei and the others looked at the position of the Mars landing module displayed on the monitor in surprise.

Because the Mars had already contacted them before, it was able to locate the opponent's specific location through radar.

However, they have now discovered through radar that the Mars landing module is still very fast after landing at an altitude of less than two kilometers, and it seems that it has not slowed down at all.

It certainly doesn't look like a smooth landing.

Obviously when you reach this height, you should start to use the engine to brake, and the speed should basically drop below 200 kilometers per hour.

"There will be no accidents for them, will they?"

Zheng Annan couldn't help guessing.

"do not know."

Guo Jianwei next to him shook his head.

At this time, because the altitude of the Mars landing module has become too low, the position of the Mars landing module has also been lost on the radar.

And there is no satellite positioning on Mars, so they basically have no way of knowing the location of the Mars landing module.

Zhang Wei next to him also frowned at this time, then walked aside, turned on the radio communication channel, and said, "Mars, please reply if you receive it, Mars, please reply if you receive it..."

However, after a long time, there was still no sound from the Mars from the loudspeaker.

A bad expression suddenly appeared on Zhang Wei's face.

Although, they are competitors with these Americans, but no matter what, they can step on the same land together tens of millions of kilometers away from home, and there will still be a feeling in their hearts similar to where the world does not meet.

Although I don't know why the other party has this series of problems, if the other party suffers a disaster, as the same Martian astronaut, he will also have a strong sense of empathy.

So then, he immediately walked to the other side and called out the positions of Firefly No. [-] and No. [-].

After contacting the Mars and confirming their planned landing site, Zhang Wei sent Firefly [-] and [-] to the landing site of the Mars landing module.

Both Firefly No. [-] and No. [-] contain oxygen reserves for one person to breathe for [-] hours. This is because the Firefly rover was originally designed to include a rescue function. If the astronauts who landed on Mars encounter danger , the Firefly rover will have the opportunity to go to the rescue.

Of course, it is limited to oxygen.

This is why it is named Firefly, which means that their astronauts can see the faint light of fireflies before they fall into despair. Although the brightness is not large, it is useful.

And soon, the current location of the Firefly was determined, and it was about six hours before the Firefly arrived at its destination.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei immediately gave instructions to his two team members.

"An Nan, you should contact the Earth Command Center now and report this matter to them, Jian Wei, you should keep in touch."

"Our Firefly No. [-] and Firefly No. [-] have already passed. If there is a chance, we should be able to find them, so Jianwei, you are also responsible for keeping an eye on the Firefly No.."

Then Zhang Wei walked to the other side and said, "I'll try to use satellites to find where they are now."

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the other two responded immediately.

Afterwards, they started working one after another, trying to find traces of the Mars landing module.

And Zhang Wei also reached a connection with the satellite above.

There are many satellites floating above Mars, including the satellites of their Huaguo.

If the satellites on Mars want to transmit information to the earth, there will be a long delay, but if they contact the current Tianchao, there will be basically no delay.

So Zhang Wei quickly got many photos of Chris Plain and its surroundings from their satellites.

Then use the method of photo overlay to improve some details in the photo.

Then, Zhang Wei began to search for it.

However, although the superposition of photos can improve certain details, there are still some difficulties in finding them because the pixels have not changed.

Of course, he first determined the landing point of the material rocket launched by the United States before Mars.

Obviously, there are no traces near this landing point.

He thought about the route that the Mars landing module had just determined through radar.

The Mars landing module passed through Olympus Volcano, and then flew towards the Chris Plain.

In other words, it flies from west to east.

Zhang Wei immediately looked to the east, and soon, he saw Ares Canyon.

"Maybe it's here?"

Seeing this, he couldn't help thinking.

According to the situation when the Mars landing module completely lost contact, it can only be here.

However, after searching for a long time, he never found any trace.

Of course, he also knows that it is very difficult to find it. After all, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. In addition, the weather on Mars today is not good, and the photos taken are not very clear, which makes it even more difficult.

The previous Firefly was able to be discovered by American satellites mainly because it stayed in one location for a long time, and American satellites often stared at that location, so it was easy to find Firefly.

But now the landing module of the Mars is no longer known where it floated, so it is even more difficult to find it.

However, after searching like this for a long time, Zhang Wei finally found something that was not quite right.

The dust concentration there is too high.

And only a very small piece, obviously, this is completely inconsistent with the situation on Mars.

Zhang Wei zoomed in and made a judgment immediately.

The relatively thick dust must have been smashed out!

In other words, the Mars landing module must be in that area.

So Zhang Wei immediately sent a message to the Firefly rover, telling them to quickly go to the place he said.

But now the location has been changed and the distance is farther away, so the time required this time has become eight hours.

Seeing this, Zhang Wei was silent for a while.

Eight hours, can the other side support it?

Especially their oxygen, is it enough?

He already had some expectations in his heart.

Then he turned his head and asked Zheng Annan, "What does the other side of the earth say?"

Zheng Annan replied: "Our command center is now actively contacting NASA and asking them to assist in the rescue."

"NASA should have agreed."

Speaking of this, Zheng Annan couldn't help but "tsk", "I said before that I wouldn't cooperate with us, but now it's fine, why don't I cooperate with us?"

"What about the media?"

Zheng Annan spread her hands, "I don't know, we can't see those media news here."

"However, according to the command center, the Internet has already been fried."

Zhang Wei shook his head, "It's probably the same."

It seems that if human beings want to conquer the universe, there will inevitably be many dangers and sacrifices.

At least, they have just encountered such an accident when they are just embarking on the road to conquer Mars.

Oh... It seems that it has nothing to do with them. After all, even if they come to Mars, they still feel like they are on vacation.

In the end, he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, fortunately, they were on the Tianchariot, not the Mars.

……

Earth.

As Zhang Wei and the others said in the chat, the Internet has indeed been fried.

[Mars lost contact] became an event that attracted everyone in the world.

No one thought that such a thing would happen.

Originally, they crossed the Yalu River with arrogance and arrogance, but now it turned out that it was a Chinese who successfully crossed the "Yalu River", while the Mars was completely "beaten off" by foreign devils.

Although it was not a fight in the physical sense, it was a fight in the form of competition, and even turned over in the end.

Naturally, there was a lot of booing on the Internet. Of course, this was also inseparable from Xiao Mi's contribution on the Internet.

Of course, there are boos, and the matter of ensuring the safety of the astronauts has also become a top priority.

You know, there are five astronauts!
For human beings, it is unacceptable for each additional astronaut who died, because they fell in the process of the greatest cause of human science, and they are admirable.

Of course, the premise is that they don't know the character of these astronauts.

Although NASA deliberately smeared Alexander Wurf and the other three, people still have a bad impression of Alexander Wurf without knowing the truth, but in fact, there are still some Americans who understand Alexander Wurf and them.

This needs to talk about the individual heroism that is rampant in the United States.

Obviously, Alexander Wolf's choice has this kind of heroism in it. After all, they also want to make the United States the first country to land on Mars.

Therefore, for now, people are very concerned about these five astronauts.

Obviously, the only one on the planet that has a chance to rescue is the Tianchariot, which is also still on Mars.

This is a well-known thing.

Even the president couldn't refuse, although he was quite happy when he learned that there was an accident during the landing process of the Mars landing module. exposed.

But in the face of so many phone calls, asking them to contact Huaguo for help, he has no reason to refuse at all. If he refuses, the whole earth will spurn him.

Therefore, they could only violate the so-called "Wolf Clause" and chose to ask for assistance from China.

Of course, the Tianchariot has already started to act.

In fact, for China, even if the United States refuses to ask them for assistance, they will try to carry out rescue operations.

In this way, as time passed, the whole world began to pay attention to this real-life version of the Martian.

……

The crash site of the Mars landing module.

The landing module was almost rotten, half of the whole body was gone, and the sand and soil almost buried the interior of the landing module.

And below, the ruins of the altar that had been smashed into a gap, there is still a strange light shining in that gap.

In this way, I don't know how long it has passed.

"Ugh!"

A howling sound came from the buried sand, and then, a hand protruded from it, as if a zombie was resurrected.

Then, as the sand rolled down, a helmet protruded from it.

As for the person inside the helmet, it was Alexander Wolf.

In sci-fi works, astronauts' helmets seem to be very fragile and will break if touched, but in fact, the materials used in astronauts' helmets are absolutely the best, and they are difficult to be damaged.

Therefore, even though it was buried by sand, with the oxygen in the spacesuit and the insulation of the helmet, Alexander Wolf successfully survived the disaster.

However, the severe pain from his body, as well as the loss of feeling in his right leg, made him very clear that his right leg had been broken.

The pain of the fracture was extremely unbearable, but he still relied on his tenacious perseverance to push away the sand that buried him, and then tried hard with both arms to try to get himself out of the sand.

But at this moment, the sense of restraint on his body made him realize that the quality of their seat belts was really good.

He weakly put both hands on the sand, and wanted to untie the seat belt. He still needed to get all the sand off his body, otherwise, his hands would definitely not be able to reach into the sand to untie the seat belt. .

But at this moment, he didn't have much strength to do this.

He gasped for breath, but soon realized that his oxygen needs to be saved.

The landing module has been broken into what he sees in front of him. Obviously, it is impossible for him to get supplemental oxygen, and the amount of oxygen he has left now... is only enough for 7 hours, and the premise is that he doesn't gulp like before. Breathe.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a bit of sadness in his heart.

Perhaps, this day is his end, right?

He thought of a lot in an instant, thinking of his family, his friends, his lover...

Until the end, he thought of his teammates.

Suddenly, he widened his eyes.

correct!My teammates!

He is the captain, and he has to rescue his team members.

There is also the Tianchao, they have already contacted the people of Huaguo, and the people of Huaguo will definitely find a way to save them!
So, be sure to hang in there!
A new power gushed out of him for a moment, and he immediately started digging.

He also remembered that there was a utility knife on his right arm, which could be used to cut the seat belt above his shoulder, so that he didn't have to dig into the seat to untie the seat belt!

Thinking of this, he immediately started to move.

In this way, after a lot of hard work, he finally succeeded in separating the seat belt, and then pushed his arms hard, slowly getting his lower body out of the sand.

Fortunately, the sand is soft enough, and the strength required is not too great.

As for the fractured right leg, he was not in the mood to take care of it for the time being, and then he checked the signs of life of his teammates.

However, what made his eyes widen was that, except for him, all the signs of life of his teammates had disappeared.

"No...no...no!"

He couldn't believe it was true, he hurriedly climbed behind him, and according to his impression, came to the Bisch seat closest to him, and then dug desperately.

After an unknown amount of time, he dug up a fragment of the landing module, probably a fragment of the shell.

He took out the fragment, but found that the sharp end of the fragment was deeply inserted into a helmet, and the person inside the helmet had become bloody.

Alexander closed his eyes in pain, then tremblingly climbed to the other side, it was Tenia.

Tenia's helmet wasn't broken, but she obviously couldn't breathe.

Through the helmet, he couldn't see Tenia breathing.

Obviously, the cause of her death lies further down.

Alexander came to James King again and dug.

But the result is still the same.

And one more, Jayden Armstrong.

And Alexander didn't want to dig anymore, because he, who was called a "good guy" in the past, only hated Jayden Armstrong in his heart.

It's all because of this person, and the other three team members have all sacrificed, so it's fine for this person to die.

But what about him?
He shook his head with a wry smile, did he also die here?

"No, I want to go back to Earth and see this guy's trial with my own eyes!"

Although Jayden Armstrong is dead, but he also wants to let everyone on the earth know the crime of this guy, he wants to...

Write a book, write the whole process, expose Jayden Armstrong, and yes, the man behind him.

"By the way, there are... and the families of Bisci and Tenia... Bisci has only one disabled mother alive, and Tenia, she has a child, and I want to tell her child , his mother was the bravest..."

He forced himself to stand up.

"God let me survive, I must have my own responsibilities to do."

"God, if you can really hear it, please bless me and be able to return to Earth!"

A flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and then he dug again, taking out the oxygen cylinders in the oxygen backpacks of Bischi and Tenia.

Finally, he made the sign of the cross on his chest.

"Friends, may you live with me forever."

Then, he dragged a crippled leg and walked slowly towards the cave entrance that he had discovered a long time ago.

And he has never discovered that mysterious ruin and that glowing crack.

In the cave, silence was restored.

I don't know how much time passed, the sand on the co-pilot's seat began to roll, and finally, a hand stretched out.

Jayden Armstrong, crawled out of it.

However, he still had an arm, which was broken, completely broken.

Looking at his completely missing left arm, he let out a howl of pain and couldn't believe it was real.

And at this time, he also found the three teammates who were dug out by Alexander, seeing that they were all completely silent, especially Bischi's deformity, he couldn't help stepping back in horror, but But because the broken shell of the landing pod hit him under his feet, he fell directly out of the landing pod.

With a sound of "snap!", he fell on a stone slab, and this fall woke him up.

At this time, he was also shocked to find that the stone slab under him looked like a man-made object, and there was a crack on it, and in the crack, was it glowing?
He just wanted to take a look, but at this moment, the floor suddenly shook, perhaps because of his fall, the crack was finally enlarged.

Then, the shimmering light in the crack suddenly burst out, completely including Jayden Armstrong.

The next moment, the light disappeared, and Jayden Armstrong also disappeared.
