Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

Beijing.

Inside the first ring line.

The chairman frowned and looked at Lv Yongchang in front of him: "You mean... those three astronauts want to join Xiaguo?"

Lv Yongchang nodded slightly and added: "And they took the initiative to provide various data of the Mars cabin."

"Even..." Lv Yongchang's expression became strange, "They even found the black box."

Chairman: "???"

The chairman stretched out his hand and gently rubbed his eyebrows: "Wait... this amount of information is a bit too much."

After a brief thought, the chairman frowned and said: "You mean... they used NASA's Mars cabin data as a token of their loyalty?"

Lv Yongchang shrugged: "That's roughly the reason."

"Although it sounds a bit unbelievable I thought about it, but after further investigation, it makes sense. "

"After all, they can't go back to the United States."

"In the US archives, they are almost dead."

The chairman looked at Lu Yongchang with a deep look, and did not express his own opinion, but asked Lu Yongchang: "What do you think?"

"Me?"

Lu Yongchang was stunned, and said without thinking: "Of course we accept them."

"Talents of this level will be of great help to the future of Xiaguo."

"But what if they are spies?" The chairman said meaningfully, "There are many such things in history!"

Hearing the chairman's reminder, Lu Yongchang's mouth corners slightly raised.

"Speaker, don't forget that with Zero, even spies can't make any waves."

Speaker Li was startled, then he clapped his hands and laughed, "Not bad, not bad!"

"This man is old, and his memory has declined."

"Some time ago, with the help of Zero, I caught a lot of spies, but I forgot them in a blink of an eye..."

Speaking of this, Senator Li suddenly changed the subject: "Yongchang, remember, whether it is now or in the future, you must think about problems comprehensively."

"Only in this way can you lead Xiaguo to long-term development!"

Lv Yongchang's heart trembled slightly.

These words...

He didn't dare to think too much, just nodded gently.

"Speaker, don't worry."

"By the way, how is the mission of Xuannv II going?" The speaker took off his glasses and pinched his eyebrows, his wrinkled face full of fatigue.

"There is no progress yet." A trace of helplessness flashed across Lv Yongchang's face, "This thing depends on luck, and there is no use in being anxious."

"Where are those American astronauts?" The speaker said worriedly.

"Won't it leak our research on Mars?"

Lv Yongchang shrugged: "Let them see, after all, they are also doing this research themselves."

"Hiding it will only make people more suspicious."

The chairman of the parliament pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.

"That's all we can do."

...

Mars.

ZHZ72 Crater.

"Wanyi... remember to check this sample..."

Hong Fan took a deep step and a shallow step and sent a drilling sample to Xia Wanyi who was standing next to the cabin.

Like Hong Fan, Xia Wanyi's face was full of fatigue at this time.

She looked at the flashing red light on the detector expressionlessly, mechanically cleaned the previous sample, and mechanically processed the sample that Hong Fan had just sent, and put it on the detector.

"Beep beep!"

A reminder sounded different from the past.

As the reminder sounded, the indicator light began to flash green.

Xia Wanyi suddenly stopped her cleaning action.

She carefully looked at the monitor beside her.

"Fungus samples detected!"

A line of simple Chinese characters filled her eyes with excitement.

"Captain!"

"Found it! We found it!"

Xia Wanyi's voice rang out over the team's radio.

At this time, Bai Yixuan and Hong Fan were preparing to move the drilling machine to the next drilling point.

After hearing this slightly hoarse shout, the two of them could not help but stand there in a daze.

With trembling hands, Bai Yixuan slowly placed the drilling machine in his hand on the dusty ground, then suddenly stood up and ran quickly towards Xuannv No. 2.

…

Seeing the flashing green indicator light, Bai Yixuan couldn't help but hold his breath, fearing that he would blow away the fungus sample that was still unknown.

But soon, he realized that this was completely unnecessary worry.

Not to mention that the helmet on his head perfectly isolated his breath, even the several centimeters of dark brown objects placed on the detector could not be blown away in one breath.

In the red Martian soil, there were a lot of white objects.

Those are ice cubes under the Utopia Plain.

In addition to the red and white colors, there are dots of dark brown objects in the samples on the detector.

Because of the contrast of colors, these dark brown objects are particularly conspicuous.

Bai Yixuan subconsciously glanced at the text on the detector.

"Fungus?"

He whispered: "It's actually fungus?"

As he said that, he reached out and gently grabbed a dark brown object, and looked at it carefully through the helmet.

The fungus was curled all over, and the surface was covered with layers of wrinkles. Even with the naked eye, it can be seen that it is seriously lacking in water.

"Be careful!" Xia Wanyi's tone was full of worry, "This is a real alien creature, and our bodies don't have any corresponding antibodies!"

Hearing the reminder, Bai Yixuan's face became a little more serious: "Don't worry, I know."

"Before entering Xuannv II, everyone must undergo a comprehensive disinfection!"

While speaking, Bai Yixuan turned his head and walked towards the drilling hole just now.

"What are you going to do?" Xia Wanyi asked subconsciously.

Bai Yixuan didn't look back, but whispered on the radio channel: "These samples are definitely not enough at the moment."

"Hong Fan and I will drill this area a few more times and try to find more samples!"

...

Earth.

It was 1:25 in the middle of the night in Xiaguo time.

Lv Yongchang was still sitting at his desk, quietly flipping through books.

Because the drilling work on Mars was not going well, he simply skipped the hibernation technology and began to study the space elevator technology that was on par with it in the system.

If you want to completely get out of a planet, the space elevator is undoubtedly a necessary technology.

Whether it is transporting materials on a large scale or building a so-called spaceport, a stable space elevator is a prerequisite.

The most important factor limiting the space elevator is the material strength problem.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

A piercing landline ring sounded, interrupting his thoughts.

"Hello?"

He reached out and grabbed the landline beside him, and asked softly: "What's going on?"

Hearing the voice coming from the landline microphone, Lu Yongchang's expression changed slightly.

"Really?!"

"Let them collect enough samples and return immediately!"

"By the way, remember to mark that area!"
