Chapter 174 Search Mission



After seeing that everyone present nodded, the leader continued, "Gentlemen, this stone statue was discovered on the moon. According to information left by powerful figures from the mythical civilization, there is also a wormhole on the moon where they evacuated."

After saying that, he paused for a moment before continuing, "The purpose of our country's dispatch of a large-scale fleet to land on the moon this time is precisely to find wormholes."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat heavy.

Once a wormhole is confirmed, it means that the entire human civilization will face an unprecedented crisis.

Although humanity is already at the top of the food chain on Earth, no one is sure whether it can overcome the crisis from an unknown advanced civilization!

The top leader also noticed their concerns and continued, "If the wormhole is found, then the existence of advanced civilizations will be basically confirmed. We need to start thinking about where human civilization will go next."

This statement was like a bombshell, causing everyone present to fall into deep thought.

After a long while, Biden finally came to his senses. His gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on the top leader's face, and he said, "In that case, let's wait until China finds the wormhole before discussing this further. In the meantime, we also need to communicate with various parties in the country and leak this information to prepare for the worst."

Upon hearing Bai Deng's words, the expressions of the other three also turned serious.

These countries fight tooth and nail on Earth every day, but they are, after all, all human beings.

Human civilization as a whole is facing a crisis now, so what's the point of them fighting each other anymore!

Finally, they all nodded with extremely grave expressions, agreeing with Biden's statement.

After the meeting, the heads of state from various countries logged off.

There was no sign of relief on their faces. They were well aware of what the news of this meeting meant for all of human civilization.

Once this news is confirmed, the most likely outcome for countries is not a fight against it, but a collapse of order!

Meanwhile, on the moon.

The preliminary work for the construction of the five lunar bases has come to an end. Under Ye Chen's arrangement, each base has drawn personnel, forming groups of three, to embark on a secret mission to search for wormholes aboard landing vehicles.

The landing craft is equipped with special detection devices that can detect gravitational anomalies within a 500-kilometer radius.

A wormhole is a passage between a black hole and a white hole. The black hole not only sucks in the surrounding matter, but also ejects it from the white hole.

If we follow this line of reasoning, then there would be an entrance on the moon, which means there is a black hole there.

As for why this black hole did not devour the moon and Earth, that remains unknown.

However, as long as a black hole exists, gravity will definitely be affected, and special detection devices are designed based on this principle.

As the search team continued its exploration, relevant data was fed back to Ye Chen's Muse-1 every day.

Inside the command module of MUSIC-1, Zhizi displayed a three-dimensional map of the entire moon and updated it in real time based on the movement trajectory of the exploration team.

So far, the area within a radius of 5,000 kilometers centered on the five bases has been explored, and no wormholes have been found.

"Commander-in-chief, so far, three search teams have discovered gravitational anomalies, but after further verification, they have found only some unusual geological features and no signs of a black hole."

Ye Chen stood before the three-dimensional map of the moon, listening calmly to Wang Yuxi's report.

He was prepared for the current outcome; the search for wormholes would not be smooth sailing.

The moon has a radius of over 1,700 kilometers, and their probes can only penetrate up to 500 kilometers below the lunar surface. Even if the search team covers the entire lunar surface, they will only have completed the search down to 500 kilometers below the surface. There is still a depth of 1,200 kilometers below that 500 kilometers to be searched.

Of course, in addition to exploring the lunar surface, the search team also has other tasks, such as mapping the lunar surface and finding passages that can penetrate deep into the moon's interior.

Searching the moon inside and out within a month is no small undertaking.

Ye Chen is in charge of overall coordination, adjusting the search directions of each search team based on their activity patterns to avoid redundant searches.

Under Zhizi's command, each search team proceeded according to their respective activity routes.

Another seven days have passed.

The search team has completed a search of most of the lunar surface, but still has not found any signs of the wormhole.

However, there is also good news: two passages leading deep into the moon's interior have been discovered.

After thinking it over, Ye Chen decided to adjust the direction of the search, so he directly instructed: "Zhi Zi, redistribute the tasks of the search teams. Keep a small number of teams to complete the search of the remaining lunar surface, and the rest of the teams to focus on searching the interior of the moon."

"Yes, Master. The search task has been readjusted. Should it be distributed to the terminal?"

"Send it out."

......

Sun Zhibing followed the squad leader, riding in a lander, flying at low speed on the lunar surface.

His task was to keep an eye on the gravity detector and report any fluctuations immediately.

After several days of searching on the moon, he had lost the initial excitement he had when he first landed there.

The moon is desolate and barren, with an unchanging environment. Anyone who stays in such an environment for several days will feel weary.

Sun Zhibing stared at the detection instrument, which had remained a straight line for days. Bored, he asked, "Captain Zhong, what exactly are we looking for?"

"You've asked this question so many times already. Stop with the nonsense. Just do what I tell you to do." Captain Zhong's dissatisfied voice came through the earpiece.

"Hehe, I was just bored, so I was looking for something to talk about," Sun Zhibing said with a smile, not taking it seriously.

"Get lost! I still have to pilot the landing machine, I'm not as bored as you," Captain Zhong said with a laugh.

“Captain, he can’t operate this on the moon. If he’s not careful, we’ll all be thrown into space,” said Wang Jun, another team member who was operating the instrument and recording the terrain along the way.

Driving a lander on the moon is a highly technical job, and only specially trained and qualified personnel can be competent in it. These personnel are also the candidates for the captains of each search team.

“When Blue Star was selecting pilots, I didn’t sign up. Otherwise, passing the training would have been a piece of cake,” Sun Zhibing retorted.

"You're just bragging! I know you signed up back then, and during the mock test, you stepped on the gas and sent the launcher flying!" Wang Jun said disdainfully.

"Wang Datou, you didn't pass the test either, so what right do you have to talk to me?" Sun Zhibing said with a cold snort.
