Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

Chapter 29 Gene Sequence

"001, go in and take a look..."

The soldier was right. It was too risky to go in rashly.

Fortunately, there was 001. As a machine, even if it was trapped inside, its chance of survival would be much higher than that of humans.

001 responded and flew in slowly.

"What's inside?"

When 001 disappeared into the darkness, Li Meng asked.

001's voice sounded in the communicator.

"A passage, the same as the pyramid structure on Planet 1."

Li Meng asked again: "What's the temperature inside?"

001: "81 degrees, the closer to the wall on the other side, the higher the temperature."

After thinking for a while, Li Meng took a step forward and walked in.

The Star Army soldiers followed him quickly.

It was very dark inside, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

The only light came from the entrance behind you.

Compared to the outside, the temperature inside was higher.

In the power armor, Li Meng heard the roar from the constant temperature system.

"Not good..."

With a cry of surprise, the circular door suddenly closed.

This caught the soldiers off guard.

Some soldiers even rushed towards the circular door, but they only rushed towards the hot metal wall.

Looking back at the metal wall where the circular door was just now, Li Meng frowned slightly.

"001, contact Captain Ralph immediately, we are trapped and need a cutting device."

At this time, trapped in the pyramid, there was no need to care so much.

001: "The signal is blocked and cannot be transmitted outward..."

The internal communication was not affected, but the signal transmitted outward was blocked?

"Click..."

Just then, there was a sound of mechanical operation.

A circular door suddenly opened in the inner metal wall where Li Meng was.

It was exactly the same as the circular door leading to the interior of the pyramid just now.

As the circular door opened, a wave of heat suddenly rushed towards him.

The helmet display immediately issued a warning, and the red warning signs all lit up.

The Star Army soldiers behind Li Meng retreated again and again, trying to avoid the impact of the heat wave.

The outer armor of some soldiers turned red, as if melting, showing the high temperature.

"Regent, the vacuum combat suit cannot withstand such high temperatures..."

He glanced at the soldiers behind him.

Li Meng found that the soldiers were all emitting billowing green smoke.

"You stay outside..."

Without saying much, Li Meng walked towards the circular door.

"001, follow!"

From the other side of the passage, 001 flew in at high speed and rushed into the circular door.

As soon as it rushed in, the circular door closed immediately.

"What should we do now? We can't contact the people outside, what should we do."

"There are people left outside, they will definitely think that we are trapped in the pyramid, and they will definitely notify Captain Ralph."

What is on the other side of the door?

Li Meng got the answer.

A huge space, a huge hibernation room.

Where the eyes are, huge hibernation capsules are neatly arranged.

The scorching heat made the air twist.

A large number of hibernation capsules have turned red, as if they are melting.

Looking into the hibernation capsule, the liquid inside is boiling.

The alien creature that was originally sleeping in the hibernation capsule is left with only a skeleton.

If you look closely, you can see the rolling meat in the boiling liquid.

The scorching heat makes the hibernation capsules become pressure cookers.

High-temperature and high-pressure gas rushed out of the hibernation capsule, rushing very high...

Even so, the life support system of the hibernation room is still working.

Each hibernation capsule is connected by a pipe, and a transparent liquid is continuously injected into the hibernation capsule.

Walking quickly in the aisle between the hibernation capsules.

Looking at the hibernation capsules on both sides with billowing steam, Li Meng shuddered.

It's really tragic...

[Task completion progress: 100%, you have completed the current task, task reward: 10,000 trade coins]

[Activate the "Star Child" random feature, get 1 million trade coins, already credited]

Two golden subtitles passed by in front of him one after another, which made Li Meng look surprised.

Is this completed?

"Click..."

Just then, another door opened in the metal wall at the end of the corridor.

Who is guiding him?

Looking at the door not far away, Li Meng frowned.

Obviously, whether it is the door outside or the door inside, it was deliberately opened by someone.

The purpose is to let people outside enter the interior of the pyramid.

And go deeper into the pyramid step by step according to its guidance.

Who could it be?

Could it be a surviving alien life?

Or is it an AI-like existence inside the building?

No matter who it is, Li Meng knows very well that he has no way out now.

The road behind is blocked, and he can only move forward according to the guidance of "it".

Fortunately, his power armor has a certain heat resistance, otherwise, he can't go deeper.

"001, let's go..."

Li Meng quickened his pace, and one person and one machine hurried to the door at the end of the corridor.

When passing through the door, on the other side, Li Meng came to a white space.

The space is very small, only about two hundred square meters.

As soon as they entered, the door behind them closed.

Compared with the outside, the temperature here is lower, at minus thirteen degrees.

In order to maintain the low temperature of this space, the machine behind the wall is "buzzing".

The wall seems to be shaking.

"Click..."

At this moment, the deck on the ground in front of Li Meng opened to both sides.

From the open deck, a platform rose.

The platform is very small, like a pillar with a diameter of less than twenty centimeters.

A silver metal box is placed on it.

A box?

Looking around, Li Meng came to the metal box.

Should I open it?

He has no choice.

Without hesitation, Li Meng opened the seemingly sophisticated box.

Li Meng thought that it would be difficult to open such a sophisticated box, and was prepared for failure.

But he didn't expect that the metal box was not locked at all, and he opened it easily.

As the lid of the box opened, the densely packed glass tubes the size of the little finger inside came into Li Meng's eyes.

"001, what is the liquid in the glass tube?"

001 hurried forward, and a white light curtain was projected, scanning back and forth from the glass tube in the box.

001: "It is the gene sequence of some kind of life form..."

Gene sequence?

001's answer surprised Li Meng.

Li Meng thought of the giants he saw in the Grand Canyon of Star No. 1.

Could it be that these gene sequences belong to that giant civilization race?

Also, the unknown existence that guided them in wanted him to take away the genetic sequence of the giant race?

"Click..."

As Li Meng was thinking about things, another door opened on one side of the wall.

And this time, doors opened one after another in the direction of the door, and finally led to the outside.

At the same time, communication was restored.

Li Meng heard a messy voice in the communicator.

"The temperature inside the pyramid is rising rapidly, and it will reach the critical value in five minutes. Please evacuate immediately, please evacuate immediately!"

001 suddenly issued a warning.

Behind Li Meng, the metal wall turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Without 001 saying anything, Li Meng also saw the crazy temperature values ​​on the helmet display.
