Chapter 205 Antarctic Expedition Team in Distress
Charles Weiland, a rich man in the United States, works in communications, likes to explore, and through exploration, he discovered a lot of treasures and made a lot of money.
He also participated in the business of reselling the flesh and blood of alien behemoths before, but unfortunately their spokesperson was arrested, and now the passages have been destroyed, and their business has been completely cut off.
He went back to his old job and started global exploration. Even if he found some ruins with little scientific research value, he could sell them to those archaeological companies, or dig up some antiques from them to make money.
On this day, when his company's thermal imaging detection satellite was exploring Antarctica, it discovered a pyramid-shaped suspected building.
This discovery made him very interested.
"A mysterious heat source has been detected under Bouvet Island in Antarctica? Are you sure it is a pyramid? How could there be a pyramid in Antarctica? There is an ancient civilization in this place?" Charles frowned. He had never heard of it.
"Boss, we don't know if there is an ancient civilization in that place, but according to the pattern sent back by the detection satellite, it is a pyramid, and there is absolutely no mistake."
"It's about a few thousand feet from the surface, so it hasn't been discovered before. Antarctica is a piece of land that has no owner. If we excavate it first, the benefits must be very large. But if there is nothing in it, there will be only one left." It's a gimmick, and it may lose money."
"Or we only excavate half of it, and then we can sell it to other companies or governments, so that no matter whether there are treasures below, we will not lose money."
"Then send someone to dig it. It's not my character to dig half of it and sell it away. As long as it's a pyramid, even if it's empty inside, I can guarantee no loss."
"And don't forget what the pyramids in Egypt are for. There must be things from ancient civilizations inside. The historical value in them alone can make us a lot of money, and even make us famous in history."
"Send someone to dig, and then organize an expedition to take a look. If you can dig up something good this time, each of you will get a generous bonus!"
Charles has never been stingy with capable subordinates. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be able to poach some communication personnel from PPDC.
PPDC existed in name only, and its income was low. Many people were worried about losing their jobs. He didn’t spend much money, so he hired some professionals and bought a detection satellite.
No, it didn't take long before it gave him a surprise.
After spending a huge amount of money, Charles' expedition team had already determined the location of the excavation, but they found a natural passage before they started.
The passage with a diameter of about two meters leads directly to the pyramid below.
Charles looked at the screen: "You dug out the passage so quickly? Then go explore the pyramid, if it can't be damaged, try not to damage it. This is an undiscovered civilization, and we can make a lot of money!"
"Boss, we didn't dig the channel, we just discovered it. This channel is definitely not possible with the technology on earth. It seems that this piece of ice disappeared directly."
The scientific research ship also sent back news, saying that through their preliminary inspection, the age of this pyramid is before the oldest pyramid in Egypt, and this is an ancient civilization!
The archaeologist on board also said that he judged that this was a pyramid-shaped temple, which was similar to the Aztec civilization in Mexico, and suspected that it was a temple of an ancient Aztec civilization.
"You mean the Aztec civilization? Is that civilization so old? Or is it in Antarctica? So it's a civilization before the division of the crustal plate. It's so valuable. I want to see it for myself."
After Charles made his decision, he hired a team of elite explorers again and explored many places.
He is very experienced. At the same time, he also brought a filming team. He will personally act as the keynote speaker for this documentary. In the future, this documentary alone will sell for sky-high prices!
Soon, Charles led the team to Antarctica. The recent weather was not bad, and their trip went smoothly.
"Boss, do you really want to go in? At least let me give everyone some training first."
The female leader of the expedition, Lex Wood, stopped Charles. If the boss died, they would not get the final payment.
"Of course, our contract includes these. Don't talk nonsense, an ancient civilization, I must be the first witness!"
"There is no need for training. Will there be any living things under this kind of ice? I promise not to mess with anything. I will give you 30% more money after it is done."
"If you reject me, then this place will have nothing to do with you, and all future expeditions by my company will have nothing to do with you."
Women are trouble, what danger can there be? At most, those expedition members saw the money, and he could let his subordinates use guns to teach those people to be obedient, and he also sent people to watch over the family members of the expedition members, so that nothing would go wrong.
Lex Wood went down first, and the others followed. Following the ice cave to the bottom, they saw a beautiful temple.
"Hey, take a picture here, this is a mural, and murals are one of the oldest ways of recording." Charles stood in front of the mural, what was painted on it, a creature that looked like a praying mantis was fighting a guy like a dog?
Was the ancient praying mantis too big, or the dog too small? The mural confuses him at all.
They went down the passage and found some mummies. These mummies are very strange, as if something has burst out of the chest.
But it seems that the mummy is not struggling, and these mummy are lying on the bed, surrounded by a circle, it feels like an altar.
Is this some kind of evil ritual of human sacrifice? The ancients were so ignorant!
...
"Captain Fan, last time you said that there was a rescue mission, did you go out in person? Now there is a mission, do you want to participate?" Dr. Zhao came to the training ground and interrupted Fan Mang's exercise.
"What rescue mission, wildfire or earthquake?" Fan Mang put down a 300KG barbell. There is no bigger one here, so he can only do more.
"Neither. Our Antarctic scientific research ship said that a group of people who were investigating on Bouvet Island were missing, and there was an American scientific research ship over there, but the other party said that they did not find our people. "
"There seems to be an unknown magnetic field interference over there, and the communication signal is extremely poor. The scientific research station dare not send people to continue looking for it, fearing that other people will also disappear."
"Of course, you don't have to go on this mission, but don't you want to go out and have fun? Have you never been to Antarctica?" Dr. Zhao looked at Fan Mang, this is not a mandatory mission.
"I took it. Prepare the transport plane, let's go!"
