Some of the lava ejected from the volcano is still not dried up and is still in the state of high-temperature lava, slowly flowing down the western part of the mountain.

There are several areas in the crater. After Qiu Baiyu inspected them respectively, he turned into a drill again and drilled into the crater.

Living metal has a very magical performance.

Not to mention a crater, even the atmosphere of a gas giant planet can be shuttled.

Qiu Baiyu detected the lava and sedimentary rocks near the crater and the crater, and found that there are some things in it that may be left by humans.

There may be something hidden under this volcano.

Mount Olympus is high, which means the depth is very deep.

Fortunately, under the shallow solidified lava, there is flowing magma.

Traveling through magma is much faster than drilling a hole underground.

After a long time, Qiu Baiyu knew that he had officially crossed the horizon and entered the underground of Mars according to the mutual induction and calculation of a part of the nanomachine cluster left on the ground.

The underground detector was turned on at full power, and after following the magma for about 3000 meters, Qiu Baiyu noticed a fault cavity below.

There is no magma there, and the sensor sent back shows that there is an underground cavity with a height of nearly [-] meters.

After simply simulating the route, Qiu Baiyu left the magma river and drilled a small hole in the underground rock.

The spiral drill bit pushes all the earth and rocks behind it, preventing the hot magma from attacking.

After a long time, the front was empty, and after drilling again, the drill bit fell straight down.

Qiu Baiyu completed the shape change in the air, and propellers appeared behind him, and he landed steadily on the ground.

She looked up, then stretched out her hands to compare.

"10 centimeters shorter."

She left many of the nanomachine clusters on the ground, responsible for positioning and detecting the surrounding environment.

This resulted in not enough nanomachine aggregates going underground, only to...

Reduce your height a little bit.

10 cm short is not a big problem.

No one saw it anyway.

There was no light source underground, and it was pitch black.

Fortunately, this collection of nanomachines can analyze the surrounding environment without needing a light source, and restore the original appearance.

This is a……

ruins.

A ruin that seems to hold something.

Perhaps it is deep underground, and the crust of Mars has not moved, which is why this place has been preserved to this day.

In the form of rocky ruins.

By testing the soil and rocks of the dome and the stones of the ruins, Qiu Baiyu discovered that the things here may have existed for millions or even hundreds of millions of years.

The erosion of time has made it impossible to see the original appearance here.

Perhaps the civilization that once built this ruin also once ruled over Mars.

Perhaps a certain civilization once stopped here and left their traces.

But under the erosion of time, all these disappeared.

Qiu Baiyu thought of the living metal in the deep well of Sawu.

Obviously the latter is more likely.

It's a pity that the living metal recovered by her in the deep well of Sa Wu country cannot be detected when it was left in Ershi.

Because these living metal ores were buried without being refined, they were not used.

Without traces of use, it is basically difficult to tell when it was buried underground.

What is certain is that it was buried for a long time, at least hundreds of millions of years.

We still don't know what happened to the earth in the past, what civilization came to the earth, leaving behind living metal, a substance that only advanced interstellar civilizations can obtain.

If he knew, and if it still existed, Qiu Baiyu would thank him in the future.

Without these living metals, it would be very difficult for him to explore deep underground magma like he is doing now.

It may be possible to achieve a fusion degree of more than 1%.

It is still 0.01% at present, but under Qiu Baiyu's inspection, it was found that long-term activities and CPU usage have increased the fusion degree a lot, and it will reach 0.02% in a short time.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. After the initial difficulties pass, the follow-up will be much easier to integrate.

Qiu Baiyu walked slowly through the underground ruins, searching for things other than earth and rocks.

Unfortunately, nothing useful was found.

I thought I could find an ancient factory or something...

She came to the center of the ruins, where there is a high platform.

The high platform has been broken, and the cause of the break is unknown.

There is an arc-shaped groove in the center of the high platform, and there should have been something there.

Qiu Baiyu speculated that it might be an east-west device supporting the dome structure.

I searched around, and sure enough, I found a small section of metal products in the soil.

But it is a pity that there is only a little left, and it is impossible to see what it is.

Suddenly, Qiu Baiyu's heart moved, and he probed deeply into the ground.

Soon, she discovered that about 10 meters underground on the high platform, there was something completely different from the surrounding substances.

She dug it out, peeled off the protective shell, and revealed the body inside.

It was a reassuring alloy box.

The length is about 10 cm.

This alloy is an alloy that can be preserved for countless years, and the outer layer is an anti-oxidation protective layer, which has almost merged with the stone.

In the past, Mars may have had a nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere.

I checked the box carefully and found no openings.

After pondering for a moment, Qiu Baiyu decided to take it back and analyze it with relevant analytical instruments on the engineering ship.

After making a decision, she picked up the alloy box and continued to explore in the ruins.

But it is a pity that there is nothing else here except this alloy box.

"Then let's come here today, and it will be considered rewarding."

Qiu Baiyu looked down at his stomach, and then looked at the box in his hand.

In order to prevent the box from being corroded by magma, she planned to put it in a cluster of nanomachines and let the nanomachines protect it.

That is, put it in the body.

The only suitable place to put it is obviously the stomach.

But this way...

"No, it's too weird."

The girl decisively let the nanomachine assembly surround the alloy box, turned into a drill bit, and flew towards the dome.

Chapter 185 Space Race?

It will take a while to return the engineering ship from Mount Olympus.

Parsing also takes some time.

When returning to the voyage, Qiu Baiyu was attracted by another matter.

The Miri Empire unites many countries and announces to unite to explore space together.

The completion of Dongyuan's moon base has put a lot of pressure on the Miri Empire.

Apparently, under the constant visits from NASA, Miri's senior executives couldn't sit still.

They are about to embark on a great plan—

Log in to Mars!

Among the nearest celestial bodies, Dimas-[-], Digats [-], and Digats-[-] are the closest and exist as three satellites of Ersh.

But after all, it is a satellite, and the one that is the best to land has already been given the preemptive landing by Dongyuan.

It's better than-

Take a longer view.

Go to Mars!

A total of seven countries issued a joint statement at the same time, claiming that they are about to launch a plan to land humans on Mars.

The spaceship used for landing will be researched and developed from the breakthrough psychic power, and it is expected to be completed in about three years.

A Miri official said: "Our spacecraft will use psionic energy as an energy source. This magical energy, which is cleaner than nuclear fusion, will allow us to easily cross the distance of tens of millions of kilometers and land on Mars."

Then someone asked, "Will you source Dongwon for their metal spacesuits?"

"Of course not! We will develop a new type of psionic spacesuit, which will be more adaptable to space than Dongyuan's spacesuit!"

"Psychic space suit? Is it only useful for psychics?"

"Uh...we'll do our best to make this suit accessible to non-psychics."

"..."

Qiu Baiyu fell into deep thought when he saw the spacesuit customization cooperation invitation that suddenly appeared from the space agency.

The originator of the order, the Space Agency of the Miri Empire - NASA.
