Carl and Bob, who were extremely nervous, and all the monitors around them were quietly listening to the conversation between the middle-aged director and the director of the general bureau. The scene was extremely quiet for a while, no one dared to speak, for fear of disturbing the middle-aged director's thoughts .

"Okay, sir, I see."

It wasn't until the middle-aged chief finished his last sentence and hung up the phone that Carl and the others rushed over, and countless voices rang out immediately.

"Director, has anything been said at the headquarters? Do they have any solution to solve this crisis?" Karl was the first to ask.

"Yes! Director, is there a solution to the headquarters? If this meteorite falls without any hindrance, the area where the meteorite landed will be completely reduced to ruins!"

"Director, this crisis is beyond our imagination. If there is no way to alleviate it, I'm afraid even our place will be affected by the meteorite landing."

...

Countless voices were jumbled together, and when they entered the ears of the middle-aged chief, he couldn't make out who said what.

Moreover, these messy questions also made the middle-aged director's already not very good mood worse.

"Okay, stop arguing..."

Just when everyone was still asking non-stop, the middle-aged director suddenly felt a sense of boredom, and finally when he couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped the table next to him hard and shouted loudly.

"..." "..."

As the middle-aged chief yelled, all the monitors, including Carl and Bob, couldn't help shutting their mouths, and a look of fear rose on their faces at the same time.

After all, the middle-aged director has been in the aerospace department for a long time, and the director is also very dignified on weekdays. If the monitors who understand the middle-aged director's temperament are on weekdays, they may not They wouldn't ask him questions like this one after another. I'm afraid even the middle-aged bureau chief probably didn't expect this scene to happen.

It's just that after the monitoring room became quiet again, the middle-aged director glanced at everyone, and after seeing the indelible anxiety in everyone's eyes, he also understood the reason for their situation.

After Karl discovered the super-large meteorite falling towards the earth, and then deduced that the final landing point of the meteorite was Washington State, it is estimated that everyone's mood will no longer be calm.

This meteorite could still maintain such a huge size when it was about to fall to the earth. This situation was never seen by the middle-aged director, Karl and other monitors.

If it was just a miniature or small meteorite, Karl and others would probably not take it seriously, because such a meteorite would not cause much harm even if it landed in a densely populated area, but...

The current meteorite is so huge that no one has ever seen before. It's just Karl's preliminary estimate just now, the volume of this meteorite has exceeded tens of kilometers.

Although a stone with a size of tens of kilometers is nothing on the earth and can be found in many places, this is a giant meteorite that came from outside the sky and carried an unimaginable impact!

If this meteorite really landed in Washington State, it is estimated that more than half of Washington State will be affected by the aftermath of the meteorite. As for the central area where the meteorite landed, it may be completely turned into ruins.

This is not a joke, that's why the middle-aged chief understands the anxiety and tension of Carl, Bob and others. To be honest, when he first heard the news, the middle-aged chief himself was no better than Carl and the others, but now …

After speaking to stop the noisy questioning of the crowd, and after scanning everyone, the middle-aged bureau chief slowly spoke.

"Well, you don't have to be nervous, the current situation is not as bad as we imagined."

Carl, Bob, and others who heard the voice quickly turned their attention to the middle-aged director again, only to see him continue to say: "I called the chief of the headquarters just now, and after I told him about it, He told me that the headquarters has also detected this meteorite that suddenly appeared, and is preparing some countermeasures..."

Just as he was talking, the middle-aged director suddenly paused, and then he saw his complexion condense slightly, and his voice suddenly changed: "Yes, according to the survey at the headquarters, there was no trace of this meteorite before. It seems to have appeared suddenly, and when the officer was explaining this to me just now, another more specific test was conducted at the headquarters, and the result of this test is..."

"What's the result of the test? Director." Seeing him pause slightly, someone beside him quickly asked.

The middle-aged director glanced at the monitor sharply, and then slowly opened his mouth and said: "The test result this time is... this so-called meteorite is probably not a real meteorite, but something else, and the other The real size is not as huge as what we see."

After the middle-aged director finished his sentence, the surrounding monitors exploded for a long time.

Carl, who was the first to discover the meteorite, first raised questions to the middle-aged director, and he frowned and looked at the middle-aged director, and said in disbelief: "Director, this is impossible, I Obviously..."

But Carl was interrupted by the middle-aged director before he could finish speaking. He seemed to have guessed what Carl wanted to ask, and quickly said, "It's impossible."

"Carl, the monitoring system and corresponding means of our sub-bureau are limited after all, and it is impossible to achieve the level of the head office."

"Although the General Administration was as shocked as we were when it detected this strange object at the beginning, after their second investigation, they discovered some unusual coincidences."

"Carl, look..."

Just as he was speaking, the middle-aged director suddenly pointed to the computer screen where Karl was just now, and following the middle-aged director's movements, everyone's eyes couldn't help but also looked towards his finger.

Just when everyone was puzzled by the monitoring screen on the computer screen, the voice of the middle-aged director rang in their ears again: "Have you noticed that the meteorite-like object in the monitoring screen is moving toward The earth is falling, but the speed of the fall is quite slow, of course, compared with the speed of real meteorites."

"Although this object seems to be falling rapidly, its real speed is not that fast. When we first observed it, it was only less than 3,000 kilometers away from the earth. If it was a giant meteorite, I am afraid it has already passed away. Did it land on the earth? But this object has not yet touched the atmosphere..."

"And the size problem I mentioned just now is not nonsense. Although the size of this thing is at least tens of kilometers according to the images of our satellite monitoring, the chief of the General Bureau discovered it after the second inspection just now. The volume of the object is actually not as large as what we see. Its real volume may be very small. The outer areas we see are just a layer of special protective energy. And it is estimated that the energy of the outer area of ​​this object The shield even exceeds 99% of the area we can see. So, even if this weird object lands, the damage caused will not be particularly large."

After the middle-aged director finished speaking, the faces of the surrounding monitors suddenly became clear, and they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

It's just that Karl didn't fully believe the words of the middle-aged director. Although his words seemed reasonable and there were no flaws, Karl still couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

It was precisely because of these doubts that Karl couldn't help turning his head to look at the middle-aged director again, and asked aloud: "But the director..."

It's just that he was interrupted by the middle-aged director again as soon as he started talking.

I saw some impatience suddenly appeared on the face of the middle-aged director, and he sternly stopped Carl's next words: "There is nothing wrong with it."

"The headquarters has determined that this thing is not too dangerous. Carl, do you think you are more professional than the detectors at the headquarters? Or do you think the chief of the headquarters gave me false information?"

After Carl interrupted twice, the middle-aged director couldn't help but look a little angry, and glared at him with his eyes wide open while talking.

Seeing the middle-aged director put on such a fight, Carl couldn't help but feel trembling for a while, and he didn't dare to look at him again. When he slowly lowered his head, he responded softly: "No, I don't have those thoughts, director."

"It's fine if you don't have one. Remember, you only need to do what you need to do well. Other things will naturally be taken care of by others, so you don't need to worry too much."

In the face of the middle-aged director's lecture, Carl did not make any further rebuttals, and nodded slightly in response: "Director, I understand."

Hearing his words, the middle-aged bureau chief didn't say anything more, just glanced at him, then turned and left.

After the middle-aged director left, all the monitors returned to their original positions, and the entire monitoring room fell silent.

...

Just after Carl's aerospace department returned to its original state, NASA moved quickly.

During the fall of the unknown object in outer space to the earth, the headquarters of the Aviation Administration mobilized four ultra-long-range missiles to try to stop its fall.

Although in their second detection and several subsequent detections, it was very clear that this object was not a giant meteorite, and it was just a layer of energy shield around it, but everyone in the aviation agency Didn't take this lightly.

After all, the energy shield of this object also has a range of tens of kilometers. Once it is allowed to land smoothly, the damage caused is no better than that of a meteorite of a corresponding size.

Therefore, they must use special means to reduce the range of the outer energy shield of this object, and these ultra-long-range missiles are the most effective measures.

When the first missile hit, it forcibly reduced the energy shield of this object to a range of only about twenty kilometers.

Until all four missiles were launched and hit, the energy shield around the object finally shrunk to only half a kilometer in size, and the half-kilometer unidentified falling objects happened to be the best size that everyone in the aviation bureau could tolerate.

After all, after removing the crisis, most of the high-ranking officials and monitors at the headquarters of the Aviation Bureau are looking forward to what exactly is stored in the energy shield.

...

After the extraterrestrial object landed, in the early morning of the second day, more than a dozen jeeps rolled up smoke and dust to the center of the object's landing, which is the desert area on the border of Washington State.

Dozens of people in protective suits got out of the jeep one after another, and when they reached the central area, a huge pothole with a range of several kilometers fell into their eyes in an instant.

The scope of the crater is extremely large, and it can be seen in a range of several kilometers with the naked eye, but it is expected that a half-kilometer volume of extraterrestrial falling objects will cause such damage.

It's just that although the scope of the pothole is extremely wide, its depth is far beyond the imagination of everyone in the aviation department who came here.

Judging from normal meteorites of the same volume, even if the depth of the pit is hundreds of meters, it is acceptable, but...

Now in the eyes of this group of people, the depth of this giant pit is less than ten meters.

This made everyone feel shocked and deeply puzzled, but when most people were in a state of extreme surprise, a certain person in the crowd seemed extremely excited to speak.

"Hurry up and take safety measures, everyone go down immediately and look for the drop." A man who looked like the highest officer stood beside the deep pit and looked down, and then ordered loudly to the people around him.

But when he said these words, no one at the scene could hear the unconcealable excitement in his voice.

"Okay, sir." Hearing his order, everyone responded one after another, and then began to make corresponding preparations.

More than ten minutes passed, and when several people had laid the stakes and successfully lowered the rope ladder, the officer who made the noise just now hurried over.

"I'll go down first, and you guys will follow immediately. The scope of this pothole is not small. It will definitely take some time for us to search for the falling objects~lightnovelpub.net~ Be sure to hurry up."

While he was talking, he saw the officer stepping on the rope ladder with both feet, and walking slowly towards the pothole with his hands and feet. After seeing him going down, the people next to him also climbed up several other rope ladders.

In less than a minute, four members of the Space Department in protective suits, including the officer, landed firmly in the pothole.

As soon as they came to the pothole, there was an indescribable oppressive feeling around them, and the other three couldn't help but frown after this oppressive feeling, but...

The officer who came down first had an inexplicable excitement on his face hidden under the protective clothing... Well, it would be more clear to say that he was ecstatic.

"A very accurate time, a very accurate place, there is nothing wrong, this is the place mentioned in the book of Revelation."

"Unidentified falling objects? Hehe...that's a real creature!"

I was overjoyed in my heart, the officer's eyes hidden under the protective clothing seemed to be bursting into flames.
