Chapter 224 The big hole in the ground

The other four people in the team were also shocked by Teng Saiyoshi's discovery.

"You mean, at least four days ago, the height of this rift valley was still a thousand meters or even deeper?" Leary understood something at this time after listening to Teng Saiyue's brief report.

The legion mechas were hovering over the Rift Valley, waiting for Leary's instructions.

"Yes, sir, I found clear traces left during the game at eight o'clock." Fujisai Yue replied, "Although this rift was not introduced in the game, but from the live broadcast at the time, this rift There's obviously a huge change in the height of the valley."

"Moreover, this glacial terrain has never appeared in the competition."

Leary was checking the map and listening to Teng Saiyoshi's report. At this time, his face became darker and more solemn.

"There is no glacial landform recorded on the aerial photos on the entire Mayan Snow Mountain Top." Leary said, "Tengsai, you and Doreen first measure the basic height at the entrance of the cave. Jiang Gan and Harper use this point as the center of the circle. In an area one kilometer southeast of each other, we will climb 300 meters to take a complete bird's-eye view. After 5 minutes, we will gather together and wait for the permit to be approved before we go down to the cave!"

Leary gave an order and everyone dispersed, while he hovered in place, sorting out information and reporting to the main ship.

Five minutes later, the overlooking picture was sent back. Leary opened the picture and saw that in this complex magnetic field area, an entire ice peak had an obvious collective subsidence. This glacier was formed in the shadow. It looked like , as if using a carving knife to dig out a groove that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. Leary knew that this was because the groundwater seeped out and began to melt the iceberg.

However, the year-round basic temperature of the star Satoya will not catalyze this kind of thing to happen at all.

The sinking of icebergs, the formation of glaciers, there is only one possibility for all these manifestations,
After sorting out his findings and his guesses, he uploaded them to the main ship, and then quietly waited for Ning Qiong's next arrangement.

Soon, the main ship of the Sixth Army received a report from Leary.

Ning Qiong only glanced at the report and then thought of the secret message sent back by Yuan Xilong the day before yesterday. She immediately issued an order, asking the Ministry of Information to contact the local Temperature and Meteorological Monitoring Bureau of Satoya, and the follow-up troops to the iceberg set off immediately. Leary's five-man team was allowed to descend the hole.

She needs to call headquarters.

After receiving the permission from the main ship to move, Leary immediately arranged the order, with Jiang Gan at the head, Doreen at the back, and in the middle, he, Harper and Tengsai entered the mysterious hole in a straight line.

"Preheat the weapons at all times and turn on the searchlight to the maximum." Under Leary's repeated emphasis, the five-person advance team began to set off towards the bottom of the cave.

Those who enter the cave first will first notice the rising temperature detected in the mecha system. The water content of the air in the entire cave is close to 80%. The vanguard team is surrounded by moist warm steam, and the top of their heads is also constantly flowing from the soil. The liquid oozed out, like heavy rain, and within a short time, everyone's mechas seemed to have been washed away.

The entire cave was sloping downward as it continued to enter the ground. Most of the space was filled with slowly flowing water. Everyone's mechas were almost pressed against the roof of the cave and the water surface, leaving no extra room for movement.

According to the high-level prediction made by Doreen's mecha, the length of this underground cave was about thirteen kilometers. However, in fact, everyone only entered ten kilometers before the space in front of them suddenly opened up, and an underground world basically filled by an underground lake appeared. In front of everyone.

It seems that the source of the groundwater seeping outside should come from here.

Leary looked at the magnetic field detector, where the coded messages left by the missing agent were received more frequently.

Following the signal guidance, everyone went all the way into the depths and saw a new large hole on a rock wall.

This large hole and the outermost hole also seem to have traces of manual violent excavation. When the spotlight shines on the rock wall, they are all black radioactive coal-colored bruises left by the explosion.

Looking in from the outside, this hole is gradually going downhill until it is vertical. Using basic height detection instruments, it is no longer possible to directly predict whether the hole has a bottom or how high it is.

At this time, the advance team encountered new problems.Either continue to go deeper, or temporarily retreat to the surface to wait for supporting troops.

Watching the water under your feet gradually rise, it will soon spread to the entrance of the cave. Once it exceeds, the water from the underground lake will pour in.

The source of moisture in the entire underground world should be due to the rapid melting of the icebergs above the head, and the water penetrates into the surface layer. It is only a matter of time before such rapid liquid injection fills the underground.

If they were to venture into this place, it was likely that when they came out, the only cave entrance connected to the outside world would have been completely flooded by the rising water level.

But to stop there would be to miss the only chance to find those two agents.

Leary was in a dilemma.

He tried to contact the main ship, but due to the influence of the magnetic field, the message was delayed in the state of being sent.

"Sir, I apply to go down to the cave." As if he noticed Leary's hesitation, Jiang Gan from his team mustered up the courage to ask.

"Our location has basically reached the altitude line at the bottom of the Maya Snow Mountain. The terrain conditions that continue downward are unknown. We have to be prepared for the worst-case scenario that this cave entrance is the last way out." Leary said and asked again.

"Even so, Jiang Gan, do you still dare to go down?"

Jiang Gan immediately replied, "I dare!"

"Sir, I also applied to go down into the cave with Jiang Gan. The two of us also take care of each other."

"Sir, I'm also willing to go down the cave."

"Me too." The other three expressed their attitudes one after another, which put Leary in a dilemma.

Among the team, Jiang Gan and Harper are comrades in the same fleet as him and have been in love for many years.

As for Fuji Saiyoshi and Doreen, they were young recruits with less than two years between enlistment.

Under this situation, only two people can definitely choose to go down to the cave for a short-term mission, and these two candidates will risk life-threatening risks.

Having reached this point, Leary actually knew in his heart that the two agents must be in danger. The code signals they left repeated at a very regular frequency. It could be seen that they were echoing repeatedly in the form of messages.

If it was just to find these two agents, Leary would not let his men take risks alone, but... it was related to Ji Shijun's conspiracy, which was crucial.

Perhaps this cave hides what kind of tricks Ji Shijun is playing.

After some difficult decisions, Leary decided to let Teng Saiyue and Jiang Gan cooperate with each other to quickly explore the cave. However, Leary only gave them 10 minutes, and the support force would arrive in about 10 minutes. However, regardless of whether If no one or clues are found, you must return immediately.

After receiving the order, the two men immediately recovered, adjusted the searchlight to a straight line, and entered the unknown cave one after another.
