I handed over to another world

Chapter 427 The obelisk under the pit

The addition of Chen Lin quickly solved the emergency situation here. The AI ​​robots had not had time to use the weapons of mass destruction they carried with them. When they saw that the situation was under control, they put away their guns and returned to the main force.

Professor Zhang and his group were gathering around Chen Lin at this time. They were full of curiosity about the "magical power" that Chen Lin had just shown - the number of people who knew magic in the outpost was extremely rare, and the 23M troops who practiced magic resonance were not common. It won't come out at all, and most people won't have a chance to encounter it.

"...How does this thing trigger hair growth?"

Professor Zhang looked Chen Lin up and down. He really couldn't imagine how the flames appeared out of thin air in front of Chen Lin and then sprayed out. This cannot be explained by science!

"It would be really difficult for you to explain it to me, but magic is just like that. Many times it cannot be explained by science."

Chen Lin stretched out his hand with a smile, and a ball of burning flame suddenly appeared on the fingertips of his left hand, attracting side glances from the people around him.

Zhang Weicong quickly asked everyone to return to work. He also adjusted his glasses and said to Chen Lin: "I only knew that there was magical power on the Origin Star, but I had never seen it real. I thought it was a joke... I didn’t expect to see a real display of magical power today, it’s really amazing.”

"Okay, I won't do much research on this issue. The main work after this trip must be completed first."

Professor Zhang summoned an assistant not far away and signaled him to direct the robots and soldiers at the scene to work together to get rid of the giant python corpse. The group quickly checked the equipment all over the body, made simple repairs, and then continued on. Depart before.

"The ecosystem here is quite rich in biological species. So far, we have found 22 species of animals and 13 species of plants in the first-level area. Most of the animals have been affected to some extent. Due to the special impact of the meteorite, some organs have mutated..."

As everyone walked forward, Chen Lin listened to the assistant sent by Professor Zhang explain to him in detail the types of creatures here. After hearing the young man say that most creatures have wings, he couldn't help but ask: " If that’s the case, why don’t these things leave this area?”

Although the area of ​​the deep crater at the impact point of the meteorite is large, it is a relatively closed space. Normally, the creatures in these craters should be very willing to leave this area.

"The deep crater area at the meteorite impact point is an independent ecosystem system. It is unique to the entire inland area of ​​Dalad continent. Many creatures in it have no living space at all after they escape... The inland area was originally They were also tortured by the Red Stone, and a large number of creatures were affected by their minds and killed each other and were transformed into living plants. In comparison, the ecological circle on the surface of the pit is relatively stable. "

The assistant gave Chen Lin a more suitable reason, which was also the result of the previous research by the scientific research team.

Chen Lin did not delve into whether this reason was valid. He just asked his assistant: "I heard from Professor Zhang that there are some red stones under the pit?"

"The instrument did detect it, but we used the red stone detector at the Peak Laboratory to detect it, and found that the effect was very weak, and almost no one above the fourth floor would be affected by it."

Chen Lin nodded slightly: "Hasn't even one drone successfully entered the meteorite area at the bottom?"

"Meteorites contain very strange energy. Our current unmanned devices will lose connection directly after breaking through the fourth floor, and the equipment cannot capture the bottom picture, so what the bottom layer is like is still a mystery."

"Is there anything covering it down there?"

"Yes, Colonel, there is a layer of thick fog between the fourth floor area and the bottom floor. Usually, unmanned equipment loses the link after passing through the thick fog. We can see from the images sent back by those previous devices that there is a layer of thick fog on the bottom floor. The shape of the obelisks on the ground and some is not very clear, but it is certain that they are basically in groups of three.” The assistant responded to Chen Lin truthfully, “Unmanned devices were used on the fourth floor. Through long-distance detection and scanning of the area, some image data was also captured..."

The assistant told Chen Lin all the information he knew. Professor Zhang specifically told him that there was no need to hide anything from Chen Lin, so it was considered as if he had said everything.

Chen Lin sighed softly. The little assistant gave more information than Professor Zhang, but it was just a little more. The entire scientific research team did not understand more of the content. At the moment, they can only slowly explore it. .

The group of people did not encounter any big dangers. They were attacked by two groups of monsters in the first level area. One was a lair spider, and the other was a huge bear-like creature that could make human-like sounds. These things were rough-skinned. The thick flesh resisted many electromagnetic rifle bullets, but in the end it was beaten into a puddle of rotten flesh by the dense bullets.

It was not until noon that everyone arrived at the edge of the first floor. The speed was already very terrifying. Professor Zhang was still directing everyone to install various equipment here, and a small team broke away and moved to In the right area, Chen Lin soon noticed that they started to cut down the tall dense forest trees in the right area.

"We are preparing to clear an apron so that the flight equipment from the platform above can fly down."

Xiao Wu ran over and asked what he wanted to do. Chen Lin nodded slightly after knowing it. He was not very interested and just led the team towards the edge of the first level area.

When he arrived at the edge, Chen Lin realized why the area around the pit was divided into the first, second and third levels. The area under his feet was indeed the top area, and the second level area was right in front of him—— But it's just under a deep pit of tens of meters.

The entire deep pit is a big circle within a small circle. The second-level area is the core circle of the first-level area. Presumably, the third-level area is also the core circle of the second-level area. The fourth level is three levels... In this way, layer by layer, eventually The core meteorite area at the bottom is actually not that big.

"You can't go down anymore?"

Chen Lin came back to his senses and saw Professor Zhang walking to the edge of the cliff. He asked casually.

"Just put another platform here on the edge of the first floor and that's the end of it,"

Professor Zhang took out a cigarette and handed one to Chen Lin. He lit it and took a deep breath. "There are many corrupted creatures appearing in the area below. I didn't explain it clearly to you before. The reason why they are called corrupted creatures is actually Because of the shape and characteristics of these things, the meteorites in the core area are definitely not fun to play with. Compared with them, the red stones are nothing. After killing creatures, their corpses will be corrupted and resurrected. It is like rotten meat. Combined with a pile of gravel, this thing's combat effectiveness is not very strong, but its vitality is very scary. If you don't cut off its head, it can keep moving. "

"Aren't these the zombies from the West?"

Chen Lin frowned slightly, and Professor Zhang nodded: "It's not much to say, but these things are much more powerful than those. Most of the corrupted creatures that appear below are converted from the corpses of dead animals, and the bones are It will grow violently to form a melee weapon such as a sickle or a bone blade... These things will attack all living creatures, animals and plants are also targets. In the images we shot before, these things started after crawling out from the bottom of the fourth floor. Attacks all creatures indiscriminately, and all living creatures in the entire pit ecosystem regard them as enemies. "

"That's too weird..." Chen Lin murmured. The meteorite at the bottom transformed a group of creatures. As a result, the animals and plants in the ecosystem that were also affected by it fought against these creatures. He really guessed that What are you going to do without the meteorite?

"I have a guess."

Professor Zhang put out his cigarette butt and said to Chen Lin: "The structure of the entire ecosystem is actually logically self-consistent. The corrupt organisms at the bottom are actually a means of harvesting. Meteorites regularly send out these hatchlings. The creatures attack upwards indiscriminately, but they are actually attacking the corpses of the creatures above."

When Chen Lin heard this, he immediately understood what Professor Zhang meant, and he directly added: "It makes sense that the meteorites at the bottom exert influence to cause some kind of mutation in the organisms in the ecosystem above, or to cause their organisms to mutate in some way. All have the ability to reproduce or grow quickly, so that the corrupted creatures it sends can harvest more corpses..."

"The kind of things scattered by meteorites should be the core reason that affects the organisms in the ecosystem. It's not that these organisms don't want to leave, but they can't leave."

Professor Zhang added again, looked at Chen Lin and said, "I feel that this conjecture is becoming more and more true."

"It's a pity that the lowest level can't go there to see the situation..."

"It's actually possible."

Professor Zhang shook his head slightly, "Let Fuxi AI control the specially-made engineering robot to put on the power armor, and we will design a protective jacket that can prevent special interference. It is estimated that the things can be sent to the lowest level smoothly."

"Can it be done?"

“I personally think the idea proposed by the team is quite reliable, but I don’t know if the association will approve it.”

Chen Lin also flicked the cigarette butt on his hand, and said calmly: "Since you think it's reliable, then I'll help you. I will apply for equipment from the office, and your team will Just make an anti-interference protective jacket, and I’ll also cover the power armor.”

Professor Zhang knew part of Chen Lin's identity, but he was not very clear about Chen Lin's ability to open the portal. However, he was still a little excited when he heard Chen Lin say this: "That's great!"

"I'm going to tell the people on the team to prepare now. We'll give you something in a week at the latest, and we can't tell you in three to five days at the earliest."

Chen Lin nodded. He himself also hopes to see the true face of the meteorite at the bottom. Unfortunately, the association is unwilling to invest more resources here. The platform above is probably the biggest investment. Now, invest here. It is tantamount to a waste of resources, and for the association, the less it can be, the less it will be.

The scientific research team was stationed here until about three o'clock in the afternoon when they waited for the transport helicopter sent from the platform. The group took the transport helicopter back to the outermost platform to spend the night. Professor Zhang invited Chen Lin to see the anti-interference device they designed. Jacket design concept.

It is said to be a coat, but it is actually a specially made armor. This thing is not made of polymer or metal, but uses stone scales based on magic rocks, so it looks quite strange.

Chen Lin didn't say much next. The scientific research team must be able to do more than him. Since there is a professional plan here, then just follow the plan.

As for the machinery and equipment he had promised to Professor Zhang before, for Chen Lin, it was as easy as drinking water - he only needed to tell Xiao Wu, and a special plane would transport it from the Xuanwu Base that night.

Professor Zhang saw that what Chen Lin said was true, so he was naturally excited and thanked him repeatedly.

"No need to thank you. I am using the association's resources to sponsor your team's research project. In fact, it has crossed the line."

Chen Lin's face was indifferent, "I just want to see clearly what the bottom area looks like. Just follow this guide and don't cause any casualties. Those corrupt creatures are very dangerous. The association has established Those rules now seem necessary.”

Professor Zhang nodded repeatedly, said goodbye in a hurry and returned to the laboratory on the other side of the platform to have a thorough battle with everyone about the modification. Chen Lin, Xiao Wu and others groped their way to the open space outside the platform.

"Xiao Wu, guess what can be at the bottom of the deep pit down there?"

When Xiao Wu heard Chen Lin ask himself, he blinked and thought for a moment, then said to Chen Lin: "This is a deep pit. I would say it is a super black obelisk covered with pustules and bacterial organisms. What? Horrible things like alien viruses and parasites..."

Chen Lin laughed immediately after hearing Xiao Wu's words.

"If those things are true, I guess we all have to finish playing now. Maybe someone will cough in the laboratory right now, and then vomit black blood from the mouth and then collapse to the ground..."

All the guards suddenly had smiles on their faces. What Chen Lin said was similar when he encountered the Kara virus on Blue Sea Star. It was an understatement now, but it was also true that he suffered the consequences on Blue Sea Star.

"Then Mr. Chen guesses what's underneath?"

"Hmm... According to what Professor Zhang said, we can reasonably speculate that it should be a super obelisk of some kind of alien civilization. It has a very wonderful ability to emit high-energy electromagnetic signals. This ability can resurrect the cells of the corpse and convert them into another A form that becomes a zombie-like existence.”

Chen Lin was thinking randomly in the gentle wind at night, "This thing sounds very dangerous, but if we can dig it out, we can definitely study its effects. For example, we can use this thing in war." Cause massive casualties to the enemy camp..."

Xiao Wu didn't answer this time. He remembered that Chen Lin controlled the war on Mu Ling Planet and indifferently detonated the balance between the two sides, causing the two sides to fight each other. In the end, no one ended up well. They suffered heavy casualties and gave in, but this allowed the Red Dragon Association to step in to mine room-temperature superconducting minerals...

According to Chen Lin's thinking, he might be able to use these obelisks to clean up the planet next.

Xiao Wu shuddered suddenly when he thought of this. Chen Lin usually seemed gentle and non-threatening, but once he got crazy, he was really scary!
