I was exposed for mining on Mars

Chapter 13 Discovery of ice

"Let's go, go directly."

After returning to his base, Luo Xiu put the two flat cars of iron ore dragged by the Zhurong into the smelting plant, then turned over and jumped onto the fuselage of the Zhurong.

Since taking the Zhurong to the mine just now, Luo Xiu decided to equip himself with a mount for all future trips.

Now, except for the Zhurong, there is no suitable machinery in the base. After all, Luo Xiu can't ride on the shoulders of those maintenance robots. This is somewhat unsightly.

After sitting on the fuselage of the Zhurong, the greatly modified Zhurong ejected and drove quickly out of the smelting plant, heading towards the place where the ice was detected just seven kilometers away.

On Blue Star, people who were wondering why Luo Xiu returned to the base early saw this scene, and the voices of discussion became louder again.

‘What are the aliens doing in such a hurry? ’

‘Is it true that something was discovered on Mars? ’

‘According to the speculation from our Martian Behavior Seminar in the Magic City, we should have discovered the technology before the civilizational fault! ’

‘What do you mean upstairs? It's only been one day, and this behavioral seminar has already come out? ’

There are various opinions in the barrage, and most of them are just joining in the fun. After all, even the aviation centers of various countries can only rely on guesses about what happened on Mars.

In addition to official live broadcast channels, various private channels with "introduction", "science popularization" and "exploration" have also emerged. Of course, although these live broadcast channels have the name of exploring popular science, their levels are always uneven.

In the Huaguo Aerospace Center, Chief Engineer Cao Guolin's subordinates were reporting the situation to the Chief Engineer, "Chief Engineer, there are many scammers with the name of Mars on the live broadcast platform. Do you want to inform the platform to take action?"

Now regarding matters related to Mars exploration, the authority has been delegated to the Aerospace Center, so Cao Guolin also has the power to supervise each platform.

"We really can't let these bluffing guys continue to live broadcast. Let's notify the platform and put it in order. But if you are a true science popularizer or enthusiast, you might as well stay. After all, this exploration is related to the survival of all mankind."

Cao Guolin did not kill the live broadcasts about Mars on the platform. Among the mentioned live broadcast channels, there are also a few that are really concerned about the exploration of Mars.

Therefore, Cao Guolin chose to renovate and support half, which would also be beneficial to the image of the aerospace center.

While Cao Guolin was discussing with everyone, on the big screen in the control center, the surrounding scenery was retreating rapidly.

This scene shows the Zhurong carrying Luo Xiu quickly rushing to the location where the ice was discovered.

"The shock absorption system of the Zhurong after being transformed by the alien creature has also been greatly improved. We saw that the Zhurong has maintained a high speed since it left the opponent's base, but the video sent back did not show any bumps at all. .”

Before Luo Xiu arrived at the location where the ice was discovered, members in the control center were analyzing the transformation of the Zhurong.

Although Zhu Ronghao was fast before, the base was not too far from the mine. And because the driving distance is not long, it does not give researchers much reference value.

But now, at a distance of seven kilometers, it would take seven minutes for the Zhurong to arrive even if it was moving at a constant speed of sixty kilometers per hour. Such a long-distance trip can be regarded as providing a large amount of data to the researchers at the control center.

"Stop! Chief Engineer Cao, the Zhurong has stopped!"

While Cao Guolin was still discussing with his assistants the details of rectifying the platform, the members of the signal team in the row in front of him turned around and shouted softly.

"Stop?" After hearing the shout, Cao Guolin stopped his discussion with his assistant, raised his head and looked at the big screen in front of him.

On the big screen at this time, Luo Xiu had jumped down from the back of the Zhurong and landed next to the maintenance robot in front.

"Your Excellency, Commander, ice was discovered seven meters down." After Luo Xiu approached him, the No. 26 maintenance robot responsible for ice exploration quickly came forward and pointed to a large iron box in front, with a detection port as thick as an arm. Said to Luo Xiu.

"good."

After Luo Xiu gave a simple reply, he jumped a few times and arrived at the excavated detection port.

Luo Xiu, who came to the detection port, lowered his head slightly and looked into the cave entrance. However, since the depth of this detection hole reaches seven meters, it is impossible to see the existence of ice seven meters below with the naked eye.

But Luo Xiuqi didn't just observe with the naked eye. When his eyes only saw black, he directly turned on the detector function of the exoskeleton helmet.

And when Luo Xiu lowered his head and squatted down to determine the ice layer under the detection port together with the No. 26 maintenance robot, the Blue Star people were also very speculative about Luo Xiu's movements.

'robot! It looks exactly like the robot from the previous manufacturing factory. Has it been mass-produced? ’

‘If it were really mass production, wouldn’t the manufacturing capability be too terrifying? The movements and execution capabilities of this robot are not inferior to those of us humans. ’

‘No, shouldn’t we pay more attention to what they discovered this time? ’

‘Look at the size of the detection port, it’s either detecting ore or ice. ’

‘They already have quite a few mines. If it’s really a choice between two, it’s probably the ice. ’

Just as the barrages on the live broadcast screen were passing by, Luo Xiu on the screen had already used a telescopic pole to dig up a small piece of ice from the bottom of the detection port.

"Very good, it's just ice." After obtaining the first water source on Mars, Luo Xiu also seemed very happy. After all, water resources are extremely important to him. If he wants to truly develop on Mars, he must have this thing in his hands that is absolutely indispensable.

"Stop exploring the ice on the 27th and 28th and move closer to the area on the 26th."

Luo Xiu stood up with the ice cube in his hand and contacted the two maintenance robots that were also exploring in the other two directions through his exoskeleton armor.

"For the time being, dig out ten by ten collection points, and let me know when you reach the ice." After notifying the maintenance robots in the other two directions, Luo Xiu gave the No. 26 maintenance robot a task. .

"Yes, Your Majesty Commander."

As soon as Luo Xiu finished speaking, Maintenance Robot No. 26 took out a shovel from his tool box next to him and started digging using the detection port as thick as his arm.

The only maintenance robot that Luo Xiu can produce now is mainly used for maintenance, so it needs to be equipped with a large amount of detection and excavation equipment when performing excavation operations. This is why every maintenance robot that goes out will carry a large iron box with it. s reason.

My distant relative left and I didn’t get home until after ten o’clock. I’ll update 1 today and resume 2 updates tomorrow.
