At this time, the sound of the engine came from behind.

A stepping vehicle parked behind the rig, and a field researcher wearing heavy protective clothing jumped from the back of the chariot with the toolbox.

"Look, our Santa Claus is coming." Looking at the researchers who staggered to the side, the Marines who held the rifle on their chests whistled and joked in the communication screen.

Santa Claus.

This is the name of the Marine Corps soldiers on the field researchers.

The reason for giving them this nickname is that they are like a big belly of Santa Claus after they wear red heavy protective clothing. Of course, although this name has a bit of ridiculous meaning, there is no meaning of derogatory.

When he reached Zhang Hai, the researcher asked calmly.

"Where is the sample?"

"Just in front." Zhang Hai pointed to the direction of Koenig. "Be careful, we are not sure if it is dangerous."

“We know better than you how to identify the dangers of living things.”

With this sentence left, the researcher buried a heavy step and walked in the direction of the root of the drill bit.

Zhang Haiyu grinned and held his rifle and watched him walk towards the back of the rig. He scored a **** in his heart.

"Captain, I feel that the frequency of it beating seems to be getting faster."

When he heard the voice of Konig, Zhang Hai frowned slightly.

"you sure?"

"Oh, maybe?"

"When we wait for our ‘experts to go and see it, we know.” Another Marine soldier joked, but the rifle in his hands was not in the slightest sense of laziness.

From the war in Mindanao to the present, the soldiers standing here can be said to be elite in the star trade. Whether the opponent is a human or a Martian species, they can claim to be self-sufficient. However, it is precisely because of this conceit, they will be extra careful in each mission, be careful not to let this mission become the last mission...

Walking to the side of the eggs, the researcher threw the toolbox in his hand on the ground and picked up layers of dust.

"Hey, lighter." Standing a few steps behind him, Koenig whispered, but after being looked back by the researcher, he shrugged and stopped.

Skillfully removing the various instruments from the toolbox, the researcher first attached the two wires to the egg and then tapped a few buttons on the arm's touch-screen keyboard.

"The vital signal is stable... the bioelectric current is weak."

After saying this to himself, he took out a nanoneedle from the toolbox and then tied it to the beating egg.

I don't know why, when the needle was tied to the eggs, Zhang Hai's brow slammed a few times. However, he finally resisted the urge to stop his voice, forcibly convince himself, and believed in the choice of this expert.

Fortunately, or the researcher has two things, he smoothly extracted a green liquid from the egg.

“Strongly acidic liquids, may contain some corrosive bacteria?”

Looking at the liquid in the test tube, the researcher said to himself.

Shaking his head, he stuffed the test tube back into the toolbox and then took out a razor-shaped scanner.

The scanner can simultaneously emit two kinds of strong and weak penetrating rays, scan the external structure and internal structure of the object and easily compose the image. It is a powerful enhanced version of the "b super tool". However, because of the high level of radiation and the possibility of trace amounts of radiation, this kind of thing is only suitable for use outside of humans.

The scanner was aimed at the egg, and the researcher opened the holographic screen inside the helmet.

"So... let me see what you are."

While speaking to himself, he pressed the switch of the scanner.

The three-dimensional composition is presented on a holographic screen, and these images are simultaneously transmitted back to the expedition number floating on the synchronous track.

Looking at the beating eggs, the large transparent carcass that was abnormal, the researchers' brows wrinkled tightly.

"What is this……"

"When can we leave here, I always have a bad feeling, it is not very safe." Looking at the researcher who was busy with the eggs, Zhang Hai could not help but remind him, "If you still have not confirmed Something, I suggest that you first spray it with a cryogen, then put it in the specimen box and bring it back to the colony's isolation room..."

“You don’t have to teach me how to sample,” the researcher said coldly, standing up. “Before you are uncertain about its vital signs, the rush to use the refrigerant may also completely stop its vitality.”

"So, can we start sampling now?" Koenig said. "I feel the same as the captain. This stuff always gives me an ominous premonition."

"Yes." The researcher dropped the sentence coldly, taking a fire extinguisher from the toolbox and pointing the spout at the egg.

This is the cryogen for sampling. Unlike the injectable refrigerant which is necessary for the dormant compartment, this refrigerant is for external use.

Press the switch and a white spray is sprayed onto the surface of the eggs.

However, at this time, the researcher was slightly frowning.

I don't know if it is his illusion.

The speed at which the eggs pulsate seems to be getting faster.

“Does low temperatures accelerate their life activities in a short period of time to generate more calories to maintain normal life activities?”

Silently remember this discovery in his heart, just as he prepares to increase the output of the refrigerant.

For a moment, the eggs suddenly shrank to the limit.

Zhang Hai’s brow jumped without warning, almost conditioned, he rushed to the side and shouted in the communication channel.

"Lie!"

boom!

The eggs burst and burst. The green droplets are like a flying arrow, and the squally showers seem to sweep toward the rigs and Marines. The researcher standing nearby was hit by the shock wave of the explosion and flew out and crashed into the rig. Koenig, who was not far behind him, was also embarrassed, and was covered by the green droplets.

The sound of the deafness echoed in the tunnel, running through the eardrum of everyone. Such a terrible explosion, even in Mars, where gas density is extremely low, is so clear and audible.

But the more horrible thing is still behind.

"what!"

I saw that the researcher struggled to climb from the ground, where the green liquid was drenched, and it was like a fire, and there was a strong white smoke.

He desperately wanted to wipe off the liquid on his body, but soon his eyeballs began to grow and he was gradually covered with bloodshot...

"His space suit is damaged, help him quickly, and put him in the chariot! Koenig! Damn!"

He snorted, Zhang Hai slammed the first two steps, grabbed the researcher's collar, pulled him to his side, and then took out the gel spray and slammed into the place where his spacesuit was broken.

The jelly-like gel paste is placed on the spacesuit, blocking the broken position. Gradually the bloodshots faded from the researcher's eyes, but the fascination in the pupils. If it is not the life signal detector that can detect his life activities, Zhang Hai almost wants to treat him as a dead person.

On the other side, the seriously injured Koenig was rescued by his comrades and dragged back from the edge of death.

"Take them back to the car... call the command! We have two people injured here, a researcher, a Marine soldier! Repeat, we have two people injured here..."

However, at this moment, there was a fierce misery in the distance.

Cold sweat instantly came out of Zhang Hai’s forehead.

He held the stunned researcher in one hand and set up a rifle around his waist with the other hand vacated.

Almost at the same time, a monster that I have never seen before, got into the tunnel from the front end of the drill car...

a
