The hairs on everyone's heads immediately stood on end.
Because only a portion of it was cleared out, all that could be seen was a pale blue liquid in the glass container, with the head floating in the liquid.
This head has no hair, only a fleshy growth, wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, which is a round fleshy ball, standing upright on the head like a fleshy antenna.
Chun-Li's lips turned white, and she stammered, "An...alien?"
No one answered her, because they didn't know whether this creature with high cheekbones, a pointed chin, little flesh on its face, and only a pair of huge eyes was an alien or a mutant human.
Han Junche frowned: "Go ahead and dig it up, let's clean it out and take a look."
Chunli's legs felt a little weak. She handed the shovel to Lin Yi and said, "I...I'm a little scared. You go ahead. I'll hold the lamp for you."
Lin Yi took the shovel and walked up without saying a word.
Chi Xia and Chun Li took the lanterns from Han Junche and Qin Zhao respectively, and held them high to illuminate them.
Han Junche, Lin Yi, Qin Zhao, and Wang Dalong, who had come to their senses, began to scrape away the dirt covering the glass vessel little by little.
As the soil was gradually removed, the glassware and its contents were fully revealed.
This is a huge glass column, nearly three meters high and about two meters in diameter, filled with pale blue night light.
The base of the glass column is a metal ring, which shows no signs of rust even after being buried in the soil for more than a year. There are several gates around the metal ring, and judging from the shape of these gates and the rotten pipes on the ground, they should be connected to these pipes.
As for what's inside the glass pillar, everyone can now confirm that it's an alien.
It has a long tail, no hair on its body, and its legs are slightly bent, like those of a monkey or a horse.
But its feet are different from those of a monkey or a horse; they have webbed feet instead of toes.
It is very tall, about two meters high, with extremely long and thin fingers, no nails, and its whole body is covered in flesh.
Its entire body is covered with fine threads that connect to the metal beneath the glass pillar.
After the initial shock and fear, everyone calmed down and silently looked up at this creature that did not belong to the blue planet.
"So aliens really do exist." Chun-Li swallowed hard. "How did it get to Blue Planet? And how was it killed, turned into a specimen, and kept here?"
"It was probably not dead when it was caught."
Han Junche looked at the alien and said, "There are no broken wounds on its body. If it had died then, it would be on the dissection table now, not lying here so intact. There would be no monitoring equipment wires on its body."
After Han Junche explained, everyone realized that the instruments in the basement were not laboratory equipment, but monitoring equipment used in the ICU of a hospital.
The hairs that had finally calmed down stood on end again.
Lin Yi swallowed hard: "It...it can't still be alive, can it?"
“They should be dead by now,” Qin Zhao said. “Although we don’t know if aliens need oxygen or anything like that, they’ve been buried underground for a year and the liquid hasn’t decreased, which means there’s no energy being consumed inside. Whether it’s an alien or something else, as long as it’s a living organism, it must have an energy supply.”
