A few minutes later, several people had seen the sudden deep ditch with their own eyes.
This is like a tear zone that suddenly appeared in an earthquake, and you can smell the fresh earthy smell. Plants, soil and even rocks on the ground were torn apart, blocking their planned path.
This ravine has no edges visible to the left and right. The data returned by the aerial detector shows that this is not a long straight ravine, but a circle of large cracks, so big that it surrounds the entire mountain in front of it.
It was as if the entire towering mountain peak suddenly grew a moat. The area within the "moat" is so large that the "moat" looks like a straight river, so the human eye cannot see the corners on both sides for the time being.
Moving forward from where Li Sa and others are, across the ravine, you can see a black hole on the mountainside. The plants on both sides of the black hole are still burning, and the fire is spreading outward. It was as if something burning had crashed into the mountain and plunged directly into the depths of the rock.
The crashed spacecraft did not plunge headlong into the ground, but hit the mountainside diagonally and went straight into the mountain. It was like a missile with huge thrust. There might have been a more violent explosion in the heart of the mountain, but there was no trace of the spacecraft from the entrance of the cave.
Yao Feier's high-altitude detection device could only capture the hot and huge energy, confirming that the spacecraft was in the middle of the mountain and had not passed through the mountain. As for whether the spacecraft was still intact or seriously damaged, it was unstable due to the heat blocked by the rocks. , cannot be described more accurately.
Yao Feier took out some accessories from the space and quickly assembled two small unmanned detection equipment. After putting one out, without using anyone, the control went straight to the big hole on the mountainside and drilled into it. She handed the other one to Li Tianya and said, "Control this one and look down the ravine. I always feel that there is something strange under the ravine."
In the barrage of the 369 live broadcast room, the audience saw this rare hole and the ravine that seemed to tear apart automatically and couldn't help but start to speculate:
[Could it be that the spacecraft hit something and caused an earthquake on the planet's surface? ]
[Earthquakes only open a few large cracks irregularly. Have you ever seen anyone who can directly crack a large circle to surround such a tall mountain? ]
[Perhaps this mountain is not a naturally formed peak, but there are other man-made structures beneath the surface. The spacecraft crashed into it, triggering certain mechanisms that caused the ground to crack, and the aftermath may not be peaceful. ]
[The primitive jungle on the surface seems to have existed for thousands of years, right? At that time, humans had already built civilization here? ]
[Probably not human civilization, nor the immigrant advance team of space civilization. Maybe it was some indigenous civilization on this planet that left behind creations. Those civilizations have long since disappeared, and natural vegetation and creatures have reoccupied the surface of the earth, making it the primitive planet it is now. ]
[I have read some historical documents. In the early years, the interstellar immigration plan had two processes, the exploration period and the formal immigration period. The exploration period is like a plant sowing seeds, ejecting thousands of small exploration spacecraft from the home star to the surrounding area. Those are one-way missions, carrying a certain number of fertilized human eggs. They will never return until they find a suitable planet before landing. ]
[I know this, but at that time, the definition of moving to a planet was very vague and varied greatly. Even if some spacecraft successfully landed people, the people inside would not be able to leave the spacecraft for life because the external environment was too harsh. ]
[Yes, but with the sacrifice of these predecessors and the transmission of very important data, the latecomers can be prepared to establish a stronghold with more targeted resources and population. ]
[But all of these things only happened in the last thousand years. The planet where the podcaster is located has such a dense primitive jungle, it doesn’t look like it could have been formed in a thousand years, right? ]
[But, have you ever thought about it, if this planet contains some kind of substance that can speed up metabolism, it will not only affect humans or insects and beasts, but also plants? Most of the plants on this planet are common to us, but they are a little different in size. ]
Li Sa couldn't help but feel moved when she saw this comment. If the vegetation they saw was also brought by the early exploration spacecraft of interstellar civilization, and the growth accelerated due to some kind of energy released by the planet after sowing, it would indeed be possible to cover the entire planet's surface in just a few hundred years.
Wherever they are, there will be all kinds of strange influences, and this is all well-founded. Maybe the high mountain in front of them is not really a high mountain, but a large mound formed in less than a hundred years?
In addition, the reason why the insect beasts invaded this planet may also be caused by the human exploration team. Those insect beasts also have civilization and can "immigrate" across the stars. They may come here specially because they think the ecological environment here is good.
Of course, these thoughts cannot solve the current problem. They need to cross the gap first. If you walk along this gully to both sides, there will definitely be no way in. High-altitude detection has confirmed this.
Now, in order to be on the safe side when crossing the ravine, they first had to confirm if there was anything strange at the bottom of the ravine.
With their current mobility, it is not possible to jump more than ten meters directly with their legs. If they jump over on a mountain bike, they must use some acceleration gradient or physical principles, and also consider accelerating the leap when carrying two people. success rate. But with Dr. Yao here, all you need to do to get these accurate parameters is mental calculations.
Li Tianya used a small drone to explore the bottom of the ravine. After descending a kilometer or two, he still found nothing.
Yao Feier asked Lu Jingjing to compile high-altitude observation data, including meteorological data, to support her calculations more accurately. She mainly focused on the information returned by the detector that flew into the cave, in order to confirm whether they could be allowed to break in without professional protective gear. In the cave after the impact, there may be some environment that is not conducive to human survival.
In addition to paying attention to possible threats around him, Li Sa also approached the gully and looked down.
The ravine was bottomless, pitch black, and the width on both sides was not very uniform, averaging about ten meters. It was as rough as a torn wound, going in and out. Some plants were pulled and broken, and they were placed on top of the ravine. It seems that dexterous players can use these things to get a foothold and jump to the other side of the ravine.
She wondered whether she should try it first and jump to the opposite side. If she can do it, then Li Tianya and Dr. Yao, who are better than her in physical strength, strength and agility, will definitely have no problem. It shouldn't be difficult for the three of them to walk over with the cute Lu Jingjing.
Suddenly, several of them heard a strange sound coming from the bottom of the ditch. It seemed like the friction of metal was a bit harsh, or it might be some kind of hard scales scratching against each other. In short, it was definitely different from the silence just now.
Strange things happened at the bottom of the gully, and the gully was slowly widening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Is this ravine growing?" Li Sa muttered.
Li Tianya said in frustration: "The unmanned aerial vehicle that was detecting the bottom of the ditch lost contact about 4,000 meters below. The last picture taken was that there were many metallic reflective strips on both sides of the crack."
