Industrial survey, it turned out that the sweater was worn inside out?

Chapter 490 Exploration!

In front of the light emitted by the armor, you can vaguely see some regular-shaped buildings. Some of these buildings are crooked, and some are still standing. In the dark underground, in the afterglow of the lights, they tell everyone about their former glory.

Looking at these shadows in the darkness, the members of the three teams took a breath.

They couldn't help but want to ask, how strong is this civilization?
After a brief shock, the combat members raised their hands and released the drones on their arms.

Small reconnaissance drones flew out one by one and dispersed according to the control signal. When the arrangements were in place, they turned on the lights at the same time. In an instant, the entire dark underground became like daylight.

Under the bright light, the members of the pioneer team also saw clearly what the ruins looked like.

The team is located on a cliff. Strictly speaking, this is more like an entrance. Entering from the cave and going down the steps on the edge of the cliff, you can enter the ruins.

A ruin that looks like an animation scene.

What surprised the members of the Pioneer Team even more was the size of this space, which was much larger than they imagined.

According to the sound wave detection emitted by the drone, the area of ​​the entire space reached an astonishing 24.75 square kilometers.

In this 24.75 square kilometers of space, there are a large number of stone buildings.

Because there is no wind in this underground area, the appearance of these stone buildings has been basically preserved.

Each of those stones is very regular, and they are regular strips of stone cut out of stone.

It is these regular stones that built this huge ruins.

The mere scale of this ruins was not enough to surprise those present.

What surprised them was the size of the buildings inside this ruins.

According to the data returned by the drone scan, the height of the streets, gatehouses, and vaguely visible steps in this ruins are all much higher than those of humans.

According to model estimates, the people living in this ruins are at least three meters tall.

Among human beings, the highest natural growth record is 2.36 meters, which can basically maintain self-care in daily life and have a certain degree of exercise ability.

The highest recorded height of patients with gigantism is 2.72 meters. Most of these patients with gigantism do not have strong athletic ability, and a small number of them even have no athletic ability.

The minimum height of the people in this ruins is also three meters.

giant!

What a giant!
Soon, through some traces on the edge of the cliff, several archaeologists in the spacecraft deduced the time when this ruins existed.

At least 100 million years ago.

One million years ago, civilizations that could build such megalithic buildings on a large scale appeared on Mars. So where did these civilizations go?
How did they develop during these 100 million years?
How terrifying is it?

After staring at these buildings for a while, Wang Jiangtao, the captain of the small team, pressed the earphone to connect the communication with the spacecraft.

"Hey, hey, command center, can you see these pictures?"

"It's a bit too shocking. To be honest, seeing such ruins, it's hard for me to imagine how those Martians one million years ago created these things."

In the command center of the spacecraft, Commander-in-Chief Tikarov couldn't help but take a deep breath when he saw the pictures sent back by the pioneer team.

This picture is so spectacular and majestic that it cannot be described in words.

After staring at the screen for a while, he said without hesitation: "Pioneer Team, now the mission has changed. Your mission becomes to explore this ruins."

"If you can, you'd better find some traces of Martian life in the ruins, and then bring these traces back."

"This will help us find the whereabouts of the Martians."

"Move quickly! Do you understand?" On Mars Underground, after receiving the changed mission, Wang Jiangtao turned off the communication and lowered his head to look ahead.

After a moment of silence, he turned to the members of the third team and said, "Lead the team to stay here and set up the weapons. If we encounter something in the ruins, we need your artillery support."

"No problem!" The captain of the third team made an OK gesture, turned around, took several members of the combat team, removed the heavy artillery from the armor, and began to install it next to it.

While they were busy, Wang Jiangtao looked at a few people from Team 2 and said, "Left or right?"

The captain of the second team raised his finger to the left and responded with a smile: "The left eye will jump to wealth, and the right eye will jump to disaster. I choose the left side."

After choosing his own route, the captain of the second team led his men and walked down the cliff from the steps on the left.

Recording data as they walked, and soon the whole team reached the ground.

The thick iron blocks of the armor hit the ground, kicking up dust.

A few people were not busy entering the ruins. Instead, they squatted outside the ruins, carefully cleaning the dust on the ground, and looking for places where they thought there might be traces of life.

Compared with the second team, the actions of the first team were much more radical.

There were drones clearing the way in the sky, and all kinds of scanning equipment came into action, scanning the ruins over and over again. Several people carefully shuttled through the buildings, looking for traces of life and existing words.

"Captain, why do I feel like these alien civilizations always like to pile rocks? It feels a bit flashy."

"Who are you asking me?" Wang Jiangtao rolled his eyes, he also wanted to know.

Such research information actually exists in the Space Force database.

But the words used in these research materials are all guesswork, maybe, maybe, in other words, useless.

Maybe people just wanted to build a house, but over time, some parts of the house disappeared, and the rest became Stonehenge.

While walking, one of the team members suddenly shouted: "Look here! There is something here!"

Hearing his shouting, a group of people quickly gathered around.

The position of the player's finger was a stone slab submerged in dust.

This stone slab is in an upright position, with a corner of about 40 centimeters exposed.

And this small piece of stone slab exposed to the outside has some dents carved on it. After the baptism of time, these dents are still vaguely visible.

Seeing this dent, a small team of people instantly became excited.

What was more exciting than them were the archaeologists who saw the ruins through cameras.

Things in this universe, whether organic or inorganic, have a common enemy, and that is time.

In the face of time, all things are equal.

All will die, all will return to nothingness.

If you want to understand things from countless time ago, you need to look for those traces, and the traces left by intelligent civilization are mainly words. Words carry this civilization and record everything about them.

Under the excavation of the pioneer team, this stone slab was completely dug out.

Looking at this stone slab, the people present were shocked again.

Because the height of this stone slab exceeds five meters, and the width also exceeds three meters.

This huge stone slab is engraved with dense symbols.
