Chapter 301 Revisiting The Mother's Nest, The Tragedy Repeats Itself
Mars.
The TT7 spacecraft of SpaceX, after receiving the order sent by the headquarters of the Earth company, sent two more astronauts to leave the spacecraft and rush to the direction of the alien spacecraft Mother Nest 1005.
Before setting off, the captain told them: "David, Davis, when you get to the mother's nest, you two can only enter one person, the other person stays outside the mother's nest, and keeps in touch with those who enter the mother's nest at any time. Wei! You enter the hive! Davis, you keep in touch with David when you are outside. David, you must inform Davis of everything you see in the hive at any time. If there is any important situation, Davis, you must Tell us as soon as possible!"
The captain is obviously worried that these two colleagues are missing like last time, and the reason why he let Davis stay outside the mother's nest and keep in touch with David who enters the mother's nest at any time may be because he is afraid that once David enters the mother's nest , the signal of the communication equipment cannot be transmitted to the TT7 spacecraft.
Although this is unlikely, after all, their company has sent spacecraft many times before to explore Mother Nest 1005.
But this time was a little different.
Because this time to explore a new area of Brood 1005 - District 16.
Maybe, area 16 can isolate the signal transmission?
In short, although the order from the company headquarters asked him to send another astronaut to the mother nest 1005 to investigate the situation, as the captain of the TT7 spacecraft, he still sent another person to be on the safe side.
David and Davis, who received the mission, got on the Mars rover with trepidation and approached Mother Nest 1005 little by little.
If the two colleagues who went to the mother's nest before had not lost contact, then if they were allowed to go to the mother's nest, they probably wouldn't be nervous.
Maybe even looking forward to it.
But now, both of them are beating drums in their hearts.
Seven and eight.
Because no one knows the two colleagues who lost contact, what is the situation now?
Is the communicator broken? No signal? Or...dead?
no one knows.
The fear in the hearts of the two people sitting on the Mars rover became more and more intense as time passed, as the Mars rover they were sitting on got closer and closer to the canyon where Mother Nest 1005 was located.
They want to get back to the TT7 spacecraft immediately, preferably to start the spacecraft immediately and return to Earth.
At this moment, they feel homesick and even start to miss their mother.
But reason tells them - can't go back!
At this time, if they return to the TT7 spacecraft and refuse to carry out the orders of the head office and the captain, their future will be completely over.
The company sent them a trip to Mars at a high price.
Every spacecraft sent to Mars costs an astronomical amount of money.
At this time, they refused to carry out the orders of the head office and the captain. Even if they could return to Earth alive, what future would they have?
The owner of the company is currently the richest man in the world.
Is it true that the richest man in the world is a great man?
With great anxiety, the two came to the canyon where Mother Nest 1005 was located, came to the vicinity of the wreckage of Mother Nest 1005 spacecraft, and looked at the door of the huge spaceship's abdomen from the ground. Stop and look at each other.
They both saw fear in each other's eyes.
The open door in the abdomen of Mother Nest 1005 fell into their eyes at this time, like the mouth of a demon.
Can you come out alive after entering?
Neither of them were sure.
In contrast, Davis, who was ordered by the captain to stay outside the hive, was much less afraid.
Because he stays outside, if he doesn't enter the mother's nest, he should be a lot safer.
So, when he saw the fear in David's eyes, Davis thought for a while, raised his hand to turn on the speaker of his spacesuit, and said, "David, execute the order! I'm here to support you, my spirit is with you. You're here, come on! Buddy!"
David: "???"
Spirit with me?
are you god? Can the spirit be with me?
At this moment, David wanted to curse.
But reason told him that he had to enter the mother nest, maybe the two colleagues who entered in front were just because the signal of the communicator was blocked by the mother nest? Maybe those two guys are still alive, they should be alive.
"Come in man! Show your courage as a man!"
Davis urged again.
David turned his eyes to the open door in the belly of the mother's nest, took a deep breath, and then took a deep breath, comforting and encouraging himself again and again in his heart. After more than ten seconds, he finally gritted his teeth and walked to the place step by step. The dark brood gate.
Ten minutes later, he successfully walked into the gate of the mother's nest.
Davis stood there and didn't move, just opened the communication channel with David and kept in touch with David at any time.
David, who entered the nest, took every step carefully and slowly because he was nervous.
Respond from time to time to a query from Davis on the communication channel.
And as time passed, he passed through areas within the hive.
District 1, District 3, District 6…
An hour has passed, two hours have passed, and he has not encountered any danger. Gradually, the tension in his heart gradually eased.
Along the way, from time to time, he shouted at the two colleagues who had entered the hive before.
Although the air on Mars is thin, which makes it difficult for the sound to spread, but he shouted at his throat, and the sound could still spread some distance.
only……
Quietly.
The interior of Brood 1005 was silent, except for the sound of his own footsteps as he walked, and the sound of his shouts, there was only a little echo inside the ship.
All the sounds are made by himself.
In addition, the area he passed through was always quiet.
The dust on the floor was very thick. He saw that there were clear footprints left on the thick dust. He knew that these footprints were left by the two colleagues who lost contact with them, as well as those of the company colleagues who came to Mars to explore before. down.
Following the clear footprints on the floor and walking forward, he was getting closer to Area 16.
"David, where are you now?"
Davies' question came through the communicator again.
David's footsteps suddenly stopped at this moment.
"Outside the 16th district..."
He responded softly, but his eyes were fixed on a few Pami star words above the gate of Area 16. Those words, which he had been specially trained before coming to Mars, meant "Area 16".
At this moment, what he saw was the open door of District 16.
This made his heart beat faster and faster, and the tension in his heart was constantly amplified.
Because the purpose of their coming to Mars this time is to enter the 16th area in the Mother Nest 1005 spacecraft, that is to say, the door of the 16th area was closed before they came to Mars this time.
However, the door of the 16th district in front of him is open.
What does this mean?
David judged: The two colleagues who lost contact had successfully entered District 16 before they lost contact. This open door should have been opened by those two colleagues.
At this time, he was standing outside the gate of District 16, and he could still contact Davis outside the mother's nest.
David, who flashed this in his mind, couldn't help swallowing nervously. At this moment, in his eyes, the open door of District 16 was very dangerous.
Like the entrance to hell.
At this moment, he needs to make a difficult choice - enter the 16th area, or immediately turn around and leave.
Life is often faced with similar choices.
For example, when you are young, when you meet a girl you have a crush on, you need to choose whether to walk up to her and show your heart to her?
If your confession is successful, you will be able to achieve what you want, hug her tender body, and kiss her red lips. But if the confession fails, it will be very embarrassing and become a joke in the eyes of many people.
At the beginning, David bravely confessed to the girl he had a crush on.
As we all know, American girls are very open.
On the night of his successful confession, he rolled the sheets with her.
For many years after that, this event made David proud and memorable.
Since then, he has always appeared braver than others when faced with various choices.
Because from that incident, he realized a truth: Don't be afraid of failure, there are many beautiful fruits that only warriors have the opportunity to taste.
However, at this moment, he was standing outside the gate of District 16, so nervous that he swallowed several times in succession, but it was difficult to make up his mind to walk into the gate in front of him.
Because he knew very well in his heart that once the choice was wrong this time, the number of people who lost contact when they came to Mars this time would change from 2 to 3.
He David will be one of them.
"David, have you entered District 16? Is the door to District 16 open?"
Davies' question came through the communicator again.
After hesitating for a while, David felt an urge in his heart to say that the door to Area 16 was closed. He had no ultrasound machine and could not open the door to Area 16, so he had to go back.
The words came to his lips, but were stopped by his reason.
Because he knows the spacesuit on his body, with its own video recording function, it can not only record everything he sees in front of him, but also record every word he says.
If he said that the gate of Area 16 was closed, after returning, once the captain and others checked the images recorded by his space suit, he would be finished.
"The gate to District 16 is... open."
With a smile that was even uglier than crying, he replied softly.
"Then are you in?"
Davis asked.
David was silent.
He wanted to curse again.
"David, haven't you gone in yet? Hurry in! I support you mentally, and show your courage as a man! Think about it! As long as you go in and find out why James and the others lost contact, we'll get back to you. When you come to Earth, the company will definitely reward you heavily, this is a big credit! Come in!"
Davis is trying to do the work of David's mind.
David remained silent.
The credit, the reward, is really tempting.
But his life is only one.
Can't get in?
He hesitated for a long time, and Davis kept persuading him through the communicator.
In the end, David gritted his teeth and finally walked into the gate of District 16 step by step.
The moment he walked into the door, he felt a coolness seep in from his scalp and quickly spread throughout his body.
He knew he was afraid.
But reason kept telling him in his heart—don't back off! Can't go back! Once you step back, your life will be over, as long as you find out the reason why James and the others lost contact, just find out the reason...
Soon after entering the 16th area, he noticed that the footprints on the ground became very messy, some footprints went to the left, and some footprints went to the right.
The question is again - where do I go?
David frowned and thought for a while, his eyes subconsciously wandered around the vast and magnificent space in Area 16, and he saw instruments that he did not recognize, covered with dust and covering Area 16.
But they didn't see James and the others who entered here before.
"James??"
He tried to shout.
There was no response for four weeks.
"James???"
He increased the volume and called out loudly.
This time he heard the echo of his loud call.
Other than that, there was no sound.
"James????"
He was reluctant to call again, this time he used his maximum volume, and under the amplification of the speaker, the voice of the call was much louder.
The echoes around were also clearer.
The next moment, Davis's question came from the communicator that came with the space suit: "David, have you entered Area 16? Did you see James and the others?"
"No!"
David suppressed the nervousness in his heart and responded in a low voice.
The next moment, his eyes widened.
He saw a huge screen not far away lit up. In the white light on the screen, there seemed to be golden ripples gathering together, and a little golden light dots gathered in the middle of the big screen to form the appearance of a Pami star.
The golden Pami star pattern is not high, about the size of the company captive Ian that David has seen.
Seeing this scene, David was surprised.
Is this big screen on?
Could it be that James and the others have put the energy ball into the energy slot of the 16th area?
So... what about James and the others?
Could it be that they were hiding in some corner and working on a certain instrument?
Such thoughts flashed through David's mind.
The next moment, the golden pattern on the big screen walked out of the big screen step by step and came to the dusty floor.
Its faint dark golden eyes stared at David.
"Hello, hello! I'm David, David Giles, are you the artificial intelligence here?"
Seeing the golden light man coming out of the big screen, David was surprised, but not panicked. The technology of holographic projection has long been researched on Earth.
Like James and the others who came here before, when he saw this golden light man, he tried to communicate with it.
The golden light man opened his mouth and said a sentence, but he used the Pami star language that David could not understand.
"Another one? Fortunately, I have enough energy now. For the sake of confidentiality and to ensure my own safety, kill him!"
Saying that, it opened Sakura Momo's small mouth and made a sharp sound.
And David pressed: "Hey, have you met my colleagues? Do you speak English? English? English? Can you speak? Do you know where my two colleagues are now?"
The golden light man did not answer what he meant.
The shrill scream from Sakura Momo's small mouth grew sharper and louder.
When David saw it, his expression changed slightly.
Subconsciously, he took two steps back.
With a pale face, he hurriedly persuaded: "Calm! Calm! I have no ill intentions, I really have no ill intentions, don't be angry, I'll go, I can go..."
At the same time, Davis' voice came from the communicator on him again: "David, who are you talking to? What did you see? Is it James?"
Before the words fell, and before David had time to answer, there was a sudden explosion in the air.
The dust that had been vibrated nearby suddenly exploded into a hazy mist.
And David, whose expression suddenly became terrified, also exploded into a cloud of blood at this moment...
