Chapter 12 Giant

"001, what do you think that is?"

There was a little thing following Li Meng.

That was 001, a servo skull.

Compared to the previous 001, 001 at this moment has also undergone some changes.

Before leaving the preparation room, Donald performed some operations on 001.

Equipped it with more equipment and more advanced anti-gravity devices.

The mechanical arms also became four, still made of pure gold.

Except for the skull, everything on 001 has been changed.

The appearance has become more bloated, and the skull is almost covered with various equipment.

They are laser scanning arrays, holographic cameras, and more powerful computing power.

If the previous 001 was just an ordinary servo skull.

The current 001 is his dedicated intelligent AI.

Of course, there will never be intelligent AI in the empire, this is beyond doubt.

In front of the lowest step, Li Meng stopped.

Looking up at the stone statue on the stone seat in front of him, Li Meng's eyes were only incredible.

When the distance is close enough, you can really feel their hugeness.

001 moved, and it flew up.

Along the stone base, the stone statue, it flew upwards.

The laser scanning array on its body shot out a white light curtain, scanning the stone statue.

From feet to head, and then from head to feet.

Finally, 001 returned to Li Meng and answered Li Meng's question.

"The remains of ancient creatures, fossils formed after a long period of weathering. According to the scan, they died under high temperatures, and there are traces of burning on the surface of the body. The moment before death was about three million years ago."

Remains of ancient creatures?

Three million years?

001's words made Li Meng frown slightly, and his face showed a thoughtful look.

Obviously, these giants are a race of intelligent civilization.

Three million years ago, they lived on this planet.

Why was their civilization destroyed?

As his eyes swept over the fossil remains, a trace of confusion flashed in Li Meng's eyes.

What killed them?

Also, why are they sitting so naturally?

It's as if they are willing to be killed so that they can sit on the stone seat in the most perfect posture.

Is this a ritual of self-destruction?

Or do they retain their last dignity in the face of powerful foreign enemies?

The pain of being burned is unimaginable.

But Li Meng did not see any signs of struggle in them.

Each one is like this, and each one sits very naturally.

[Task completion progress: 10%]

Suddenly, a golden subtitle slowly floated past Li Meng's eyes.

Mission progress?

The appearance of the golden subtitle made Li Meng frown slightly.

Li Meng doubted the purpose of "Zero" asking him to explore here.

He doubted the requirement of "seeing is believing, hearing is false".

Are all the human beings on Earth the eyes of "Zero"?

Are they all tools for "Zero" to achieve a certain purpose?

Li Meng doubted whether "Zero" had done something to his body before he woke up.

For example, adding some biochips to his brain.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the golden subtitles would appear in his eyes.

Even with his eyes closed, he could see it.

"Regent, we found something, you should come and see it..."

The communication from the No. 2 boat suddenly sounded in the helmet.

This interrupted Li Meng's thoughts.

"What did you find?"

Li Meng, who had come to his senses, asked.

"A building, a large building, can be seen along the canyon. It is best to go to a high place and look at the ground, maybe you can find something."

It is obvious that the No. 2 boat has found something.

"Let's go, let's go back..."

There is nothing worth noting nearby.

The bottom of the valley is very flat, and there is no end in sight.

Except for the steps, stone seats, and fossil remains, there is nothing else.

"Everyone return to the transport boat..."

With Li Meng's order, the Star Army soldiers on guard outside hurried back to the transport boat.

Striding into the cockpit, Li Meng gave new instructions to the driver.

"Take off immediately, we'll go to the sky..."

"Yes!"

At this time, all the Star Army soldiers outside had returned.

The engine roared, the air waves rolled...

In the rolling yellow sand, the transport boat took off.

When it was about tens of meters above the ground, the tail engine sprayed white flames.

Under the powerful thrust, the transport boat soared into the sky and rushed straight into the sky...

Boat No. 1 rushed out of the canyon and flew into the sky at an angle of 80 degrees.

Like a sharp arrow, it seemed that it would break through the atmosphere in the next moment.

However, when it approached 10,000 meters in the sky, the speed of the transport boat slowed down again.

It turned 80 degrees again and rushed to the ground...

Standing high and seeing far, Li Meng in the cockpit of the transport boat finally understood why Boat No. 2 asked him to look from a high place.

There is not only one canyon in the wilderness, but three.

The three canyons are not intertwined, but connected at the center.

The center is a circular space, which is very large, with a diameter of no less than two kilometers.

The depth is the same as the canyon, about one mile.

Looking from the sky to the ground, the circular space and the three canyons form a peculiar pattern.

There is also a huge building at the center of the circular space.

It is a bit like a pyramid, but the three sides are irregular.

The two sides are the same size, and the back is smaller, forming a longer pyramid.

[Mission completion progress: 20%]

Another golden subtitle slowly floated in front of his eyes.

The mission progress has increased again...

"Regent, do you want to land?"

In the sky, Boat No. 1, which was diving to the ground, was very close to the canyon.

The pilot of Boat No. 1 asked Li Meng.

Looking around the pyramid, Li Meng said: "Land on the flat ground on the left side of the pyramid..."

At this moment, boat No. 2 rushed out from a canyon.

Two transport boats flew into the circular space from two different directions.

On the flat ground north of the pyramid, two transport boats landed one after another.

For a moment, the rumbling roar of the engine resounded through the world.

The rolling yellow sand was swept up by the wind and waves, almost covering the landing transport boat.

Walking out of the yellow sand, Li Meng looked at the pyramid building close at hand while walking.

Behind him was 001, who was following closely, and two teams of Star Army soldiers.

The pyramid is very large, about two hundred meters high, like a mountain.

In front of the pyramid, the human physique looks very small.

This pyramid seems to have experienced war.

There are many large and small holes on the surface.

The small diameter will not exceed one meter, and the large one is tens of meters.

Because the surface is covered with a thick layer of yellow sand.

It is built of rock or metal, and it is impossible to tell.

But he will know soon.

"Regent, are we going in?"

A soldier quickened his pace, caught up with Li Meng, and asked.

He glanced at him to the side, and his information suddenly appeared on the display in the helmet.
