MTL - I Got on a Ghost Ship By Mistake and Was Forced To Be the Captain-Chapter 522 signal flare
Chapter 522 Signal flare
This astonishing statement made everyone in the expedition team feel their hairs stand on end.
Why does such a remote cave have so many biological remains, they don't even exist in an era.
After much deliberation,
Tu Fu’s statement is the most tenable. After each hunt, some kind of creature deliberately drags the food into the cave for food storage.
But creatures that can still exist for hundreds of millions of years, it always makes people feel impossible.
"Continuing to extend further down, these ancient lives were on the same land a long time ago, that is, the era before the formation of the polar climate.
Later, due to geological drift, the original continent was divided into many small lands, and only then did the current North and South continents come into being.
Perhaps the land's predators never disappeared, but simply switched from one species to another. "
Professor Parreira talked about his guess, the theory of land drift that is very popular in geographical science today.
Combined with Tu Fu's "canteen" concept, this unacceptable and weird scene suddenly became reasonable.
Including another extremely tragic "canteen" not far away, which is also the food reserve for the monsters after a full meal.
The scholars of the University of Michigan expedition team worked together to bury the corpses of the Venus barracks, and then carefully searched the bones all over the ground at the edge of the "canteen cave", and selected samples from them to take away.
"Professor, don't let people go into the cave again, and don't use any explosive materials. Leave immediately after sampling. After that, I will completely seal the cave."
Tu Fu directly confessed his thoughts.
He didn't dare and didn't need to gamble on whether the same unawakened amphibious monster existed in the deeper part of the cave.
"Tu Fu, you should know how important the things in the cave are to these old guys in the academy.
They come from ancient, ancient, ancient, and even species from the beginning of this world, as well as those rocks that have been buried for tens of millions of years or even longer. I think the most valuable treasure in the world is no more than a hair here.
In less than a few months, I can't fully crack the secret here. "
Professor Charles Kane had reluctance written all over his face after hearing Tu Fu's words.
Even as a historian, he knows the importance of those fossils or wreckage, not to mention those academic lunatics at the University of Michigan who couldn't move their eyeballs when they entered the cave.
"A few months? We can't stay here for such a long time. Up to two days, this is the time I can accept. After retrieving the most valuable things, we will set off immediately."
Tu Fu also knew what such a big discovery meant to archaeologists, biologists, and geologists, but he didn't mean to block this area immediately.
"I can't guarantee you whether those monsters who killed Venus soldiers will come back, let alone guarantee that we will continue to stay here, and whether our actions will awaken something more terrifying in the cave.
But you should also be thinking about the lives of other people at UM. "
Tu Fu's words didn't mean any discussion at all, and he directly pointed at the moral superiority.
"Oh, well, two days is two days, I'll listen to you." Professor Kane is not a person who doesn't like oil and salt. You can not take your own life seriously, but you are not qualified to make decisions for others.
Tu Fu stared at the dark cave with no end in sight. It was like a bottomless pit. Even with the hunter's senses and eagle eyes, he couldn't penetrate the deepest part of the cave.
In fact, the huge pothole everyone saw just now is just the tip of the iceberg of this cave, and there is only unknown in the dark depths.
During this period of time, Professor Fran personally used his newly invented drilling machine.
With the help of the ice-melting machine, every time they encounter sandstone, they survey the bottom, and the swaggering drilling machine samples the soil quickly and efficiently.
"What a miracle."
Soon, apart from the biologist Parreira who was still marveling at the greatness of the Creator, the geologist Professor Fred was also shocked by the exploration results.
Facts have proved that the soil of the polar continent has a large area of granite and shale produced in the Cambrian century, and it has also been found in some land in the northern continent, which also confirms the statement of the same origin of the land.
Of course, more fossils of tiny organisms were also found during the survey, including trilobites, algae, sponges, worms, and jellyfish. too much.
Such a large-scale and complete group of biological fossils is absolutely invaluable for the study of ancient history.
Coincidentally, the so-called "strange monsters" encountered in Venus seem to be one of the invertebrate creatures.
Not only Tu Fu, any scholar who is doing research here at this moment has a faint sense that they are unveiling a submerged historical veil.
The unknown and exciting feeling is enough to make people temporarily forget their fear, and when they turn their heads, they forget the dismemberment of the soldiers in the barracks not far away after being killed.
"Go and rest, and teach those children how to set up camp. Let us watch here."
Uncle Roman walked into the cave with a cigarette in his mouth. The smoky tobacco made the air quality that was not circulated worse all of a sudden.
"Set up a camp? Isn't there a ready-made barracks there, and some of them have been damaged and repaired and can still be used. Anyway, those corpses have been disposed of. Since it is a temporary camp, why bother."
Tu Fu shrugged his shoulders, expressing his incomprehension.
"My dear friend, not everyone has a big heart like you, and wonder how many poor ladies will have nightmares tonight."
Roman Richard stubbed out his cigarette **** when he was about to enter the hole, and shook his head distressed at this, "I think they must need a reliable and warm man to comfort them at that time."
"Fortunately, before I came, I told the glorious history of you like the ladies."
"Tuff Capet, you are the most disgusting **** I have ever seen."
"Each each other."
Tu Fu walked out with a smile on his face, leaving only a depressed Roman.
A team of more than thirty people set up camp in a relatively flat terrain.
Under the guidance of the professor, the students learned how to set up camp in the polar countries. First, they used high-precision cutting machines to divide the thick ice blocks.
Using square ice blocks to build a simple airship shed and windbreak wall, it has the style of Eskimo architecture.
The snow tent is placed in the middle, and the overall process is quite decent.
Dare to set up a temporary camp here, mainly because there are so many powerful people gathered by the Church of the Goddess of Wisdom, even if those monsters return to the hiding place, they will die.
Several ladies struggled to recover from the discomfort just now, especially Bella Wayne, who was pale, because she was not reminded in time just now, and she was still retching in the camp.
After such a toss, there was nothing in her stomach that could be vomited out.
"Ma'am, you look terrible, but the investigation wisdom behind us is even worse. Even if you want to return to Baia now, I will help you arrange it immediately." Tu Fu said casually when he came over.
"Thank you...Thank you for your kindness, but there is no need, I will follow the team to the end."
Bella, supported by Miss Winster, barely straightened her back,
"This is the cause of the Wayne family's life. I want to witness all of this in person. You should know how important it is to me."
I can feel the persistence in the eyes of this stubborn girl, but the encounter on the first day alone has tormented her enough, it is hard to doubt that she will make it to the end.
Tu Fu, who knew her family's situation well, had no intention of dissuading her anymore, and chuckled lightly: "At first, I thought that among the few of us, Elena or Kelan were the worst, but looking at it now, it turns out that Bella and you are the worst." .”
Miss Weimar has a father who loves her and frankly refuses the marriage arranged by the king for the sake of her daughter's happiness.
Mr. Sollens seems to be extremely harsh to Crane, but he is just a father who is not good at words. After all, he will show the charm of a father in many ways.
On the contrary, the so-called historical and academically famous Wayne family put all the unattainable dreams of a family, whether living or dead, on a young girl in her twenties,
But what a cruel thing to do.
"Aren't you the same? It's not easy to find Professor Capet and Sophia in such a large snow mountain." Bella, who was pale, reluctantly raised her head and spoke.
"Perhaps, everyone has to do a few stupid things in his life.
For the last time, I promised my wife, this is the last adventure. After the matter here is resolved, we will find a place to spend the rest of our lives, doing whatever we want, and we will never touch these things again. "
Tu Fu looked at Miss Winster beside her, and made a solemn promise.
Before Sophie could respond, the sky in the distance suddenly made a loud "咻".
A conspicuous cloud of smoke was released on the other side of the snow-capped mountain. The thick blood-red smoke instantly occupied an area, and it did not dissipate for a long time.
"what is that?"
Bella looked over inexplicably, her investigation experience was not enough for her to discern these things.
"Flare, to be precise, it is a distress signal flare in an emergency." Tu Fu said with narrowed eyes.
When this red signal flare is launched,
It means that the situation is quite urgent and there is no need to delay.
