In the early morning of the sixth day, Wu Chen woke up on time.
The sense of gravity has been restored, and the physical examination of the watch has been completed. Everything is normal inside and outside the "mobile shelter".
The super-hydrophobic surface of the nanocomposite armor microstructure and the ion-rich polymer coating anti-freeze material make the "T815 Extreme War Truck" only have snow falling on the surface and not be frozen at all. The meaning of "limit" is also reflected here. Under extreme conditions, normal functions can still be maintained.
"Did you sleep well, Chen?" Ferosha greeted with a smile as she opened the cabin door.
"Awesome." By the time Wu Chen walked out of the capsule, the beautiful warrior mothers and warriors had already prepared breakfast.
"Living cabin" restaurant.
As soon as Wu Chen sat down, he could see that the atmosphere was a bit solemn: "What's wrong?"
"Last night, I contacted the survivors." Valkyrie was still in good spirits after a sleepless night.
"Then what?" Wu Chen could have just looked at the multi-function watch, but he still wanted to hear what the Valkyrie said personally.
"Then he told me about the 'Gate of Hell'..." After a slight pause, Valkyrie stared at Wu Chen: "'Korra Deep Hole'."
Speaking of the strange legend of "Kola Superdeep Borehole", many big players have heard of it. It began with the "Deep Sea Drilling Plan" proposed by the United States in the 1960s. At that time, both sides of the Cold War proposed two major plans to explore the universe, upward and downward. The upward plan was the "human beings go into space and land on the moon plan" to see what is in the sky. The downward plan was obviously to drill holes into the center of the earth and see what was inside the earth. What is it. In order to reach the interface between the crust and the mantle before the U.S. drilling project: the "Moholovich Discontinuity (Moho for short)".
The word "Mohole" is composed of "Mohorovicic (the Croatian scientist who first discovered and named the interface between the crust and the mantle)" and "hole, drill hole, drilling (hole)". It means "Moho drilling", "ultra-deep drilling".
There was also a saying at that time: It is far more difficult for humans to explore below their feet than to explore above their heads. Humans can already reach the edge of the solar system, but it is difficult to dig a deep well more than three thousand meters deep. Therefore, in the 1970s, the former Soviet Union implemented a huge scientific deep drilling project on the Kola Peninsula adjacent to Norway: the "Russian Ultra-Deep Drilling (Russian Mohole)". Records show that the drilling depth reached 12,262 meters underground. Records of the deepest parts of the Earth.
Exploration work began on May 24, 1970, under the direct leadership of the former Soviet Union's Minister of Geology. By 1983, the well had been drilled to a depth of 12,000 meters, with the final 262 meters being drilled between 1983 and 1993, which took a full 10 years.
The project was subsequently terminated for some reason, with the official reason given being insufficient funds. But I don’t know since when, the saying that the project opened the door to hell began to spread, and so-called technical personnel working on the exploration work came out and claimed that "demons came out of the ground."
The existence of paranormal phenomena seems to pique people's curiosity more than "lack of funding". Just when they were about to go deeper, it was rumored that something weird and terrifying happened. First, the drill bit was often damaged inexplicably, and then there was always a frightening roar coming from the bottom of the drilling hole. Some people said it was like the sound of hell, so they had no choice but to stop the experiment.
One of the materials edited by Fat House's "Limited Project: Doomsday Alone" comes from the plot fragments of time and space adapted from these strange legends: "Kola Superdeep".
The entire story of "Borehole Korra" is similar to that supernatural legend. Strange sounds were heard while drilling in the former Soviet Union, and an accident occurred in a laboratory deep underground, so the government began to organize rescue efforts.
The heroine Anya is a microbiology research expert. Her boss asked her to enter the underground laboratory to collect some samples from the victims for future research. So, under the leadership of this boss, the heroine and a team of heavily armed soldiers went to the Kola Peninsula.
When they got down to the laboratory at the bottom of the cave, the heroine and her party found that there were still a few staff members who had not yet had time to evacuate.
As a scientific researcher, the heroine stayed in the laboratory to ask the staff what was going on and tried to take some samples, while several soldiers were ordered to go down to the bottom floor to see if there were anyone stranded. Soon the heroine discovered Olga, a female researcher who was seriously infected. This woman was in a trance and her body had undergone certain changes. Her back was infected and mutated, and her whole body lost all pain. After sampling and research, it was found that this is an ancient virus that is resistant to high temperatures. The infection started because the drill was drilled deeper and it was released. This fungus uses the human body as a medium, reproduces extremely quickly, and can even control human activities. Not surprisingly, the soldiers who went deeper into the ground were also killed by these fungi. Then the fungus quickly infected the entire laboratory. As long as humans are infected, they will become a twisted "mush" in a few dozen minutes.
During the study, the surviving woman attacked the female doctor, and then the two turned into scalp-numbing mold-like spores. Moreover, the mold-like spores actually exploded, releasing toxic gases, and the team leader was unfortunately infected. When he went to join the team calling on the radio, he even saw a strange monster composed of human mutilated limbs and mold. It could also eat people and fuse them into its own body! Fortunately, the monster was afraid of low temperatures because it had always been exposed to high temperatures. This gave Anya a glimmer of hope. However, Anya was still infected after inhaling the virus while escaping. Anna understood that if this deadly virus was really brought to the surface and transmitted to other people, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for mankind...
The derivative plot that Wu Chen is involved in is the subsequent catastrophe - the "World-Destroying Bacteria Disaster."
The ancient mycovirus spilled out of the Cora Deep Hole and spread rapidly throughout Europe, then to Africa, Asia, and the Americas. Within a few years, the entire planet was infected.
After the catastrophe, the world immediately established a unified government. To deal with this crisis for all mankind. However, all efforts ended in failure. As one of the crisis response mechanisms, at the beginning of the cataclysm, many human elites were sent into space, and the ISS International Space Station was expanded as much as possible.
Become the last space refuge for all mankind.
The people who contacted Valkyrie last night were the remaining personnel on the ISS International Space Station.
"Staff left behind?" Wu Chen keenly grasped the key elements of this derivative plot: "Could it be said that most of the surviving humans on the ISS International Space Station have moved to alien planets?"
This is the most common science fiction plot. Of course, just as the interstellar age of navigation began, it was often due to an apocalyptic disaster. This is also the direction of the derivative plot that players are familiar with.
"That's right and that's wrong, sir." Valkyrie replied calmly: "They did move out of the ISS International Space Station, but they did not go to an alien planet. Instead, they went to an asteroid."
"Asteroid?" Wu Chen was stunned.
