Chapter 814 What is supposed to come will come.

There are many terrains washed out by water on the desolate Mars. They were formed in ancient times when Mars had abundant water. They are also ideal archaeological sites for scientists on Earth.

Especially those gentle "floodlands", where long, long time ago, the water flow was gentle, which was not only an excellent habitat for aquatic organisms, but also a good place for land organisms to drink water.

And often such places are also natural hunting grounds for predators.

When there was water, this place was a breeding place for diverse biological species. But now that there is no water, it is a grave digging... er, a novice village for archeology.

Basically, you can get whatever you want, and the chances of finding something good are very high.

"……Wow!"

"...Look, it's here again. Now it can be assembled directly into a biological skeleton. The completeness rate has reached 80%!"

"Do you want to dig now? I can't wait!"

"Wait a minute, this is a big discovery. Try to explore as widely as possible to see if there are any other biological fossils."

"Well, let's take another look. Now you can clearly identify three types of creatures by looking at the relatively complete skeleton fossils. There are at least two to five kinds of fragmented skeletons. Let's take a look. What's going on here on the river beach? How could there be no fossils of aquatic life?”

"Whatever you say, look, it's a fossilized fish bone, and looking at the teeth, it looks like it's a carnivorous fish."

The archaeological team members gathered together and looked at their helmet displays in muttering.

The detector attached to the car body transmits the detected information to the on-board computer, which then sends the information to their portable computers, and their portable computers display the images they want to see on the helmet screen. superior.

In this way, every time they found a new bone fossil, they became more and more happy. The depression of only finding some microbial fossils in the past few days was swept away.

Perhaps the discovery of microorganisms on Mars is an absolutely great discovery for scientists on Earth, but for the members of the Mars expedition team of Arc Light Aerospace, only the skeleton fossils of these large creatures are discovered... Get your money back.

When large living creatures are discovered on Mars, it will be called a great discovery.

Dong Chen watched the whole process from the side. He saw these things for the first time. He didn't have to wait for their seriously delayed report in the group.

However, he was not surprised to find these things. After all, he was much more knowledgeable than the average person. It was not unusual for Mars to have large-scale life in ancient times.

Now that you've discovered it, let's start working, what else is there to say.

When it's time to return to Earth, I have to take a few skeletons of Martian creatures back with me. It would be so exciting.

Of course, we must also ensure that these things are indeed dead and will not happen like in science fiction movies, where humans themselves help alien creatures invade the earth in the end.

"Let them start work. We don't have much time. After we sort out this place, we have to take a look at the "pyramid" over there to satisfy the curiosity of the people who eat melons."

Dong Chen controlled the robot and said while looking at the seemingly endless detection screen.

Xu Qingfeng also noticed that although the more fossils the better when researching, their time is limited. If they spend all their time digging fossils here, then their task progress will not reach 100%.

So in this case, it is enough to dig out some fossils, which is enough to prove that large life once existed on Mars.

These fossils are enough for them to research a lot of information. As for the other ones, it won't be too late to dig them out the next time they come back. Anyway, no one else comes to Mars, so no one will steal them if they are left there.

"Okay, Chairman," Xu Qingfeng next to him nodded and said, "I also feel that the number of these fossils is almost the same. If we detect more, we won't be able to dig them out. There are already a lot of rock samples stored on the spacecraft. No matter how many more are possible, There’s no place to put it.”

After saying that, seeing that they were still staring at the display screen, not wanting to miss any bone fossils, Xu Qingfeng opened the communication channel and said, "Okay, let's end the scan."

"Pay attention to the time. Our mission only lasts a few days. After we finish the excavation activities here, we have to go to the pyramid landform to see it. We can't stay here for too long."

"Let's start digging now, otherwise no matter how much we detect, we won't dig them all out."

Hearing Xu Qingfeng's words, they immediately reacted. They and others were a little excited and even forgot about the mission time.

Especially the one holding the "Luoyang shovel" really wants to dig out all the bone fossils here, even if it takes a month.

Unfortunately, their mission time was only one month, and there were only a few days left.

"Ah? Got it!"

"No more, no more, hurry up and get to work. After you finish your work, go see the "Pyramid"."

"Hurry up and unfold the rover's excavator module. We don't have time, and there are many fossils of the same category. We're not afraid of any losses. We don't have time to dig out one spade after another. We just get on the excavator. "

"Yes, go directly to the excavator. We have accurate scans and are not afraid of damaging the fossils. You can dig with confidence. When we get close to the fossils, it will not be too late for us to change to the space engineering shovel."

"Okay, did the old driver hear you? Put away the detection device. Then the car will turn around and come over here. Let's study how to dig."

"I think it's good to start here..."

Seeing this scene, Dong Chen, who had been watching the excitement, also joined the working team.

Mars is the planet most similar to the Earth in the solar system. Dong Chen confirmed that there must have been life on it, but now that Mars is like this, he is also happy to dig out a "thigh bone" from the mound to see what it is like. What do the creatures on Mars look like?

But before he could do much work, a message from No. 1 forced him to give up such an idea.

"This damn thing really doesn't make people worry. I thought they could make me worry-free from now on."

Muttering secretly, Dong Chen and Xu Qingfeng said hello and then logged off and returned to Earth.

After disconnecting, Dong Chen took off his helmet and asked No. 1, "What's going on? Why did the asteroid suddenly go out of control? Wasn't it fine before?"

"The United States has succeeded once before. It should be even easier this time. Why did something go wrong?"

"It's not clear yet, and the United States is also looking for the reason." No. 1 replied calmly.

Dong Chen rubbed his head in worry, "Is there any surveillance video from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration? Release it."

"Okay, sir, we have surveillance video."

No. 1 said as he unfolded a holographic screen in front of Dong Chen.
