Chapter Ten: Cave

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Tang Feng was just about to speak when suddenly, a gunshot rang out, seemingly right above his head. The sound was very crisp and clearly echoed into the cave

Being alone together? The expression on Gail's face was very evident. Tang Feng did not speak, but there was a subtle hint of concern reflected on his face

Gail smiled. "This is where you need to think of a solution..."

Melanie's expression changed, and Tang Feng swiftly jumped off the spaceship and ran outside

Tang Feng suddenly stopped in his tracks, his expression becoming even more unpleasant

Tang Feng let out a sigh; he knew that Meilani was right. Tang Feng even felt a bit regretful for bringing Meilani along, taking such unnecessary risks. He could have escaped without her, leaving her safely in the protected area. However, would his father spare Meilani, who was expecting a child? Now, Tang Feng felt indifferent about his own fate, but Meilani always occupied his thoughts, along with the unborn child.

You see, the sound is not right

For the sake of humanity, do not go out! Gail still wanted to hold onto Tang Feng

Tang Feng approached the object cautiously and gently touched it with his hand, a slight tingling sensation quickly spread throughout his body

"It is not my intention to strike you, Colonel Tang Feng," Gael said as he walked into the dark cave, holding a cooler. "I certainly do not wish to be alone with a mutant, not even for a minute. Who knows what he might do..."

"Because it fell from the sky," Gail said

Diary of the Seventh Observation Station on Earth

Perhaps this is merely an ancient relic. Tang Feng looked at it and said, "Can I climb up?"

"Turn off the lights!" Tang Feng shouted, fiercely firing his weapon to draw the enemy's fire.

It is alright, I will help you, just do not look down

Gail, who had remained silent until now, smiled triumphantly, his vanity satisfied. He placed the cooler on his head, the water already rising above his chest

She is not coming down, she is waiting for us up there

"Have you ever conducted isotope carbon dating?" Tang Feng asked curiously

Indeed, this is it! This is the spacecraft, an artificial object that cannot be manufactured with current human technology

"Don't worry," Melania comforted, gently patting Tang Feng's hand, "Go ahead, Alibaba"

The interior was not as dark as Tang Feng had imagined. Gail was feeling around on the walls of the cave, and after a while, several incandescent lights began to glow, evidently left behind from before. Once the cave was illuminated, Tang Feng realized that it was much larger than he had envisioned, resembling a magnificent cathedral, with a regular cylindrical shape that sloped downwards. He could feel the incline beneath his feet, but the ground seemed quite smooth, and there were no stalactites overhead, indicating that it was not a product of karst topography.

"It is m.hetushu.com. How foolish we are, not knowing to look for ready-made ropes, thinking we are still in the primitive era," Gael muttered, snatching the rope from Tang Feng's hands and searching for a suitable anchor at the edge of the cliff. After a while, he tied one end of the rope to a tree, gave it a tug, nodded in satisfaction, and then lowered the rope.

"Is this definitely a spaceship? Could it not be something else?" Tang Feng asked curiously

What are you looking for?" Gail asked, tilting her head up.

Tang Feng glanced at Meilani, then looked at Jiala

Gail nodded in approval. "Yes, we have done so, but we cannot determine its age because the intervals are too close. Additionally, there is something very interesting: we found some trace radioactive dust around the spacecraft. This type of radioactive dust can only be produced during a major catastrophe; it floats in the air but quickly settles to the ground. However, why is there radioactive dust in this deep cave?"

Gail let out a hum and changed the subject

Gail noticed Tang Feng's confusion and smiled slightly. "Colonel Tang Feng, you have also observed that the formation of this cave is quite unique, which is why we began to take an interest in it. Please follow me; the answer lies within, and we are almost there"

With a loud bang, the entire cave was instantly plunged into darkness, and everyone felt a sudden blackout, unable to see anything. However, Tang Feng's vision quickly recovered; he faced the cave entrance where light streamed in, allowing him to clearly see the shadow. In contrast, those looking into the cave could see nothing at all.

As a scientist, one cannot help but feel a sense of awe when confronted with such phenomena. One often ponders how this object has wandered through the desolate and lonely expanse of the universe, traversing countless times and spaces, experiencing myriad wonders, and ultimately coming to rest here in silence. Gale remarked, "However, for a genetic scientist, there exists an even more inspiring significance, for we have previously discovered a human corpse within an identical object. Do you understand what this implies? It indicates that it was not manipulated by some other intelligent entity, but rather by us, humanity. Just think of the thrilling secrets contained within this."

I am more concerned about other matters..." Gale mumbled, "The lady is indeed quite charming..."

The gunfire rang out again, and Tang Feng saw the shadow fall suddenly like a stone, plummeting into the water with a loud splash, creating a large wave.

Are you human? Am I human? Neither of us is, no!" Tang Feng waved his fist, "We are all monsters, just like that mutant outside. Humanity has long since disappeared, disappeared, hetushucom.com doctor's degree!

Gail slipped into a cave at the edge of a cliff, where seawater flooded part of the cave. As the waves rhythmically surged in and receded, they quickly soaked his legs. Just as Gail was growing impatient, the rope began to sway, and then a shadow appeared at the cave's entrance, leaping down nimbly, with a refrigerated box tucked under its arm.

"Wait a moment, Doctor's degree," Tang Feng said, "Are we all going down?"

The further they ventured in, the deeper the water became, reaching up to their knees, making progress somewhat difficult. Gael pointed ahead, and Tang Feng raised his head. At first, he thought it was a massive stalactite, slanting into the standing water, with only a round top visible. However, as they approached, he realized that the object was illuminated and exhibited an unusually strong reflection; the surface of the stalactite was not that smooth. As they got closer, or rather, as they moved half-walking and half-swimming, Tang Feng discovered that it was a cylindrical object resembling a cigar, one end submerged in the water, possibly deeply buried in the mud, while the other end slanted out of the water, which was the part Tang Feng had mistakenly thought was a stalagmite. However, if this were a cigar, then the person smoking it must be extraordinarily tall. Tang Feng estimated that the thickest part of the cylindrical object had a diameter exceeding 20 meters and a length of about 100 meters, making it extremely massive.

Unfortunately, Colonel, you will be caught by them

Over there, in the ruins, there are many..." Jiala pointed into the distance and said vaguely

"Perhaps something has happened," Tang Feng jumped into the water, struggling to swim and walk forward, splashing a large amount of water. "Melanie and I agreed that as soon as we notice someone approaching, we will fire a warning shot."

"A door, or perhaps a passageway," Tang Feng said, gently touching the cold surface with his hand, feeling that slight numbness return. "Perhaps this is a solid object, rather than the spaceship you mentioned." As he spoke, Tang Feng stood up and stomped on the surface of the object with his foot, producing a dull sound.

Fortunately, Alex agreed to my plan

Is it because the spaceship was flying in the Earth's atmosphere at the time of the great disaster?

Tang Feng turned back to look at Meilani and asked with some concern, "Are you alright?"

Gail muttered to himself, finally finding a rope on the shore and climbing up. Tang Feng followed suit and discovered that he was now very close to this unknown object, seemingly within reach. He gazed in astonishment at its smooth surface; if what Gail said was true, then this object was incredibly hard, as such a violent impact had left not a single scratch.

"Do not come near me, Doctor!" Tang Feng saw Gael trying to approach and threatenedly raised a hand to block his way. "Right now, I only care about Melani's safety. Before that group of bastards from https://mhetushu.com strips Melani of her skin, I need to turn myself in. My father wants you; perhaps he will spare us."

Gail suddenly grabbed Tang Feng. "So, does this mean that Father has already found us?"

Tang Feng took the rope from Jiala's hand, feeling somewhat awkward. These individuals, who prided themselves on being capable, surprisingly needed a mutant to help them solve their difficulties. Tang Feng had to reassess Jiala's role; perhaps he was far more valuable than they had estimated.

"I will stay here, Tang Feng, it’s no trouble at all." Meilanni said, feigning ease at that moment, "I can keep an eye out for you, and if anything happens, I can inform you."

Speculation. Gale approached the spaceship, searching for a landing spot. "Did you see the hole we came in through? Do you know how it was formed?" Tang Feng turned his head back, looking out from inside, and could clearly see that the outer wall of the entire cave was perfectly circular, as if it had been artificially excavated.

"We have not lost yet," Gael firmly grasped Tang Feng's clothing, "Stay hidden here, do not go out; they won't discover us for a while."

What happened? Gail looked at Tang Feng with concern

It at least found Melani. Tang Feng struggled and said, "Let me out"

I thought you would let your wife come down first

And him

Clearly, the mutant Jialabi is smarter than anyone could have imagined

Come on. Tang Feng handed the rope to Meilani. Meilani's hand trembled slightly as she held the rope, with the sea crashing against the cliffs below. Jiala also cautiously approached, appearing to be quite concerned for Meilani.

Tang Feng surveyed the vast cave, not looking at Gael, and shook his head

The fate of humanity should have some turning points, I only hope that my decision will not cause greater destruction

Enough! Tang Feng also revealed his impatience, "I don't like mutants either, but not to the extent of hating them as you do."

Then let us hurry, the spaceship is right inside, and we will see it soon. Thus, the two adventurers began to wade through the slightly cold seawater towards the interior

Gail understood the meaning of Tang Feng, stood up from the water, holding a cooler in one hand and cradling his head with the other, stumbling through the water as he ran, and found the power switch

Melanie's complexion was slightly pale, but she bit her lip and nodded. Tang Feng knew that Melanie had acrophobia, so he patted the back of her hand.

"For humanity? Let humanity go to hell!" Tang Feng shouted angrily. Gael took a step back in surprise, having never seen Tang Feng so fierce.

Today I activated Alex

I have said before, "Gale follows him, those mutants are untrustworthy individuals!"

"Where did you get this thing?" Melanie asked curiously.

"Do you feel it too?" Gale's expression was unusually excited, "It seems alive, doesn't it? Or perhaps this object possesses some kind of energy; it's truly incredible"

Alex, who had been in a state of slumber, was evidently somewhat unclear about what was happening. I carefully explained my plan to him... Indeed, this plan is mine, not that of the Salmorans. I simply wanted to make some changes and put an end to this monotonous observation...

"That is the sound of a semi-automatic rifle." Tang Feng's face began to turn pale, "It is the standard weapon equipped by the security forces of the protected area." As he spoke, Tang Feng started to move forward again, causing even bigger splashes.

However, after saying so much... Tang Feng took a couple of steps on the spaceship and said, "How are we supposed to get in? Perhaps it is hollow, but to us, it is just a solid object."

At last it has arrived, Gale said, holding the precious refrigerated box, which he considered more important than his own life. After examining it carefully and finding nothing unusual, he let out a sigh of relief, only to realize that the person who had come down was Tang Feng

Tang Feng forcefully knocked the cooler out of Gael's hand, and with a splash, the cooler fell into the water

Suddenly, Melani let go of the rope

You are too naive," Gail said with a bitter smile. "Father is not as merciful as you imagine

Tang Feng retreated, walking towards the cave entrance, while Gail picked up the cooler, about to say something when suddenly, a shadow appeared at the cave mouth, sliding down the rope.

"Be careful, Tang Feng!" Gael lunged at Tang Feng, who was caught off guard and pushed into the water. A sharp whistling sound of bullets flew overhead, piercing the water and creating splashing noises. Tang Feng flipped over in the water, drew his pistol, and extended his hand above the surface, searching for the source of the sound to pull the trigger. After expending all his bullets, the gunfire ceased, and Tang Feng suddenly burst out of the water, seeing a soldier in uniform face down, lying in the water, with blood staining the surrounding water red. At that moment, a second soldier descended along the rope; while his body was still in mid-air, one hand was already holding a semi-automatic rifle and began to fire. Tang Feng reacted swiftly, grabbing the gun hanging from the corpse to return fire, and a barrage of gunfire erupted.

Is this the ... ... spaceship?" Tang Feng finally couldn't help but ask in surprise

"Shut up!" Tang Feng shouted angrily. He tried not to think in a negative direction, but he began to regret allowing Meilani to be alone with the mutant. Perhaps his decision was indeed too reckless. If such a situation occurs again, he would definitely tie up the mutant first.

"Come on, let's go find Alibaba's treasure now," Gail said excitedly, gripping the rope with both hands, pushing her feet firmly against the edge of the cliff, and leaning her backside outward.

Of course, but I don't know if the mutants will be willing to come down," Gail said, eagerly wanting to slide down, as if she were very anxious

"No, this is a spaceship," Gail insisted. "We once found something identical, but that object was damaged. We were able to enter its interior and discovered that it was a spaceship. Moreover, this spaceship before us is not very old, or rather, it has not been on Earth for long."

Another gunshot rings out

Gail nodded slightly. Tang Feng exerted considerable effort to climb up the smooth surface of the spaceship. He carefully maintained his balance on the slightly inclined head, and from this vantage point, he could see more clearly. The cigar-shaped appearance of the spaceship was faintly visible in the water, but as he looked further down, it became indistinguishable; perhaps a part of the hull had already sunk deeply into the hard rock. Tang Feng crouched down and observed closely, yet he still could not find what he was looking for. Perhaps a part of the hull had already sunk deeply into the hard rock.

I will go down first. Gale, like a child, was unable to contain his excitement; before his words had even finished, he had disappeared over the edge of the cliff, swaying slightly, and his head vanished as well. Tang Feng leaned forward to look, and Gale was sliding down nimbly, which was quite an impressive feat for someone of his age

"Melanie is in their hands," Tang Feng shouted, "They will interrogate her; I know their methods..."

Alani Ni

Gail nodded in approval, admiring Tang Feng's quick thinking. "There can only be one explanation. We can speculate that when the great disaster struck, it was in flight, and then some kind of accident occurred, perhaps influenced by the disaster... In any case, it ultimately made an emergency landing here, bringing along the radioactive dust from the air."

"Let me out, Doctor's degree," Tang Feng shouted, "Surrender, we have lost, our father has found us, the game is over"

That was caused by the ship crashing hard. Based on the shape of this hole, we can infer what happened at that time. For some unknown reason, the ship made an emergency landing on the sea, and due to its immense inertia, it continued towards the coast, which is the cliff we are currently on, ultimately crashing into the cliff and creating this cave. Have you noticed that this hole is slanted downwards? This indicates that when the ship made its emergency landing, it had completely lost power and the energy to overcome Earth's gravity, which is why it plunged downwards. Finally, the hard rock generated tremendous resistance, causing the ship to come to a stop and remain in this cave. Everything that happened at that time must have been extremely thrilling, certainly accompanied by a terrible earthquake, but unfortunately, we cannot observe it... In any case, humanity no longer needs earthquake observation stations now...

Tang Feng nodded

And together with the mutants

How do you know

No, I cannot do it. She looked at Tang Feng and said, Even if I can go down, I may not be able to come back up
