After leaving the other side of the USB drive channel to X-112, Chen Chen instructed the other party to report back at any time if there were any problems. Then, he returned to the real world first.
Just one day later, the first Ark was brought into the real world.
When Chen Chen received the news again and rushed over, he saw this device in the vast and enclosed teleportation hall.
"Is this it?"
Seeing the product in front of him, Chen Chen could not help frowning, feeling a little surprised.
What came into view was a spherical device with a diameter of five meters. It was white all over and exuded an ancient and vicissitude.
Just like white plastic that had aged with age, it carried a dull sense of age. The same was true of this huge sphere in front of him.
Indeed, the Ark was spherical, but it was not a complete sphere. Instead, it seemed to have two hemispheres joined together. The gap in the middle was half a meter wide. Through the gap, one could see the darkness inside.
On the surface of the sphere, there were more than a dozen grooves of unknown use. Each groove was only the thickness of a finger and unlike the white surface of the sphere, the grooves were black.
These surface grooves surrounded the surface of the sphere, long and short, but there was no pattern between them. Perhaps there was some kind of pattern, but no one except the designer could discover it.
At this time, what Chen Chen saw at this time was such a huge sphere.
"This is the Ark that was dismantled from the plane of" DOOM "."
Little X followed beside Chen Chen. She had grown into a slender and elegant girl. At this time, she was explaining to Chen Chen, "Previously in the Ark Experimental Base, its entire sphere was buried under the steel floor, only a portal at the top. The 'water flow' shown in the previous movie that can envelop human teleportation also emerged from the portal on the sphere."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Chen Chen quickly rose. Sure enough, he saw a small sawtooth-shaped hole above the sphere and there was a faint blue luster in the hole.
"So how do we activate it and what's the principle of the 'Ark'?"
"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."
Little X immediately explained, "Even the other side hasn't figured this out. When they first discovered the Ark, it looked like a teleportation platform. At most, they've refurbished the teleportation platform a little, such as replacing some old machinery and devices that they can understand. However, they've never been able to understand the core of the Ark. This is beyond the scope of modern science."
"I see …"
Chen Chen immediately lost hope because if even the other party could not understand it, then it was like showing a modern six-cylinder car engine to a group of primitive people. At most, these primitive people would only be able to watch the show. Other than that, they would not be able to understand anything.
This was because it contained a whole set of unknown scientific theories, as well as the corresponding industrial technology. Without reaching this level, even if it was broken down into the most basic components, it would only be known how it was, but not why it was.
With this in mind, Chen Chen reached out and took the blueprint of the "Ark" handed to him by a Black Knight. In addition to this core, there was also a platform that could contain the core and a high-power photon signal transmitter. When these things were combined into one, it would be a complete set of Ark teleportation devices.
"Follow the requirements of the design and customize these equipment."
Seeing this, Chen Chen immediately said, "When the second Ark is also transported back to reality, we can start the experiment. As long as we can succeed, we can transport supplies to Mars at will, no longer needing a spacecraft to go back and forth."
"In this case, we have to think about how to avoid the eyes of the other four continents."
Little X said immediately, "In addition, we also have to consider building a secret base on Mars, otherwise we'll still be discovered by the people of the four continents."
"This does need to be considered, let's think about it at length."
Chen Chen nodded, then turned and left.
Soon, more than ten days passed by quickly.
...
More than ten days later, in the dimension of Doom, the Mars Olduvai Research Center.
"Whoosh!"
Four or five workers in orange uniforms operated a crane-like device in front of them. On the metal floor that had been lifted, an ancient spherical device was hoisted up.
There was a special logo on the clothes of this group of workers, and at the same time, there was a line of English written on the logo: United Aerospace Corporation, or UAC for short.
If Chen Chen saw it at this time, he would immediately realize that this logo was a local giant company in the dimension of Doom. Its business even penetrated the Northern American Congress and expanded to every corner of the world.
Even the Mars Olduvai Research Center was opened by this company.
In the plot of the Doom movie, this company was also responsible for researching C24 chromosome technology on Mars. After the accident, the Northern American Congress immediately dispatched the RRTS special operations team where the protagonist was located.
When dispatching the team, the only order issued by the higher-ups to Captain Dwayne Johnson was:
"Protect and recover all property of the UAC company!"
From this detail, it was enough to prove how great the influence of this company in Northern America was...
"Ah, it's out, hurry up and prepare the protection, don't let it get hit!"
At this time, one of the foremen suddenly shouted and he was operating a crane. At this time, under the crane was the core of the Ark that was full of vicissitudes and vicissitudes.
Following his order, a group of workers immediately stepped forward to prevent the huge ball from bumping into each other.
"I say, Scott..."
While everyone was busy, one of the sloppy middle-aged workers asked his companion next to him in a low voice, "I've always had a question. If we dig this thing out, then how will we return to Earth in the future?"
"Naturally, we'll take a spaceship."
The worker called Scott shrugged. "Actually, I prefer to take a spaceship. Although it's a little slow, at least I won't get carsick..."
"You're right."
The sloppy worker nodded and immediately agreed.
After all, every time the Ark teleported, the vertigo generated was enough to make the passengers vomit last night's dinner.
"What are you two talking about, hurry up and concentrate on your work!"
Seeing the two of them whispering to each other, the foreman suddenly yelled.
It was not until the core of the Ark was completely removed from the bottom of the pit that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The sloppy worker glanced at the bottom of the pit casually, but it was such a glance that he suddenly froze.
"What's wrong, Sam?"
Scott asked casually but found that his best friend did not respond for the first time, so he followed the other person's gaze and looked down.
However, he only saw a metal door laid flat on the ground, covered with unknown patterns, like the entrance to a cellar...
...
Thirty days passed quickly. On the last day of the thirty-day period, a spaceship flew in from outer space and stopped near Papoose Lake in Nevada, Northern America.
A dozen or so soldiers walked down from the spaceship with some uneasiness, and behind them was a strange-looking transport vehicle, and inside the carriage of the transport vehicle was the core of the Ark.
As the spaceship arrived, the ground in front of everyone was still slowly rising, and then a somewhat ancient-style concrete elevator entrance rose from the ground, and then a pair of heavily armed Black Knights wearing PK Armor walked out of the elevator.
"We've brought the thing."
An officer walked out of the soldiers, waved his hand, and let the transport vehicle drive forward. "This is the core of the Ark, what you want."
One of the Black Knights nodded immediately. He stepped forward and flipped onto the transport vehicle in two or three steps. He looked at the core of the Ark in the carriage a few times, and after confirming its authenticity, he waved his hand. Suddenly, another Black Knight stepped out. He replaced the previous driver and drove the transport vehicle into the elevator.
The last core of the Ark was finally in hand.
After seeing that the other party had confirmed its authenticity, the officer said a little nervously, "Since you've got what you want, can you release the researchers in the base now?"
However, his words did not receive a response.
The other party seemed to be a group of soulless beings, retreating into the elevator one by one, and did not respond to the officer's words at all.
"Uh..."
The officer could only watch as the elevator door closed again. After the elevator descended, the facilities that originally extended out retracted back into the ground as if this was just an extremely ordinary wasteland.
Seeing this, the officer had no choice but to turn on the communicator. He whispered, "Mr. Commander, we've delivered the last core of the Ark, but the other party didn't respond to our request to release the captives.
"In that case, forget it. You guys return for the time being, don't stay there anymore, so as not to be misunderstood by the other party."
A low voice came from the communicator.
"Yes..."
At the same time, in the White House far away in Washington, all the senior officials in Northern America also received this news.
"It seems that the deal is over."
In the conference room, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Although the other party didn't directly release the hostages, this is also a good start."
The president in the lead stated, "What we have to do now is to monitor the other party's every move, in case there are new changes again."
"I hope that the other party will comply with the requirements and leave after getting the three Arks."
The Minister of Foreign Affairs on the side also followed up because everyone understood that the so-called surveillance was actually just a self-comforting excuse. As long as the other party did not leave for a day, everyone could not even sleep well. Many officials had lost a lot of weight in these thirty days.
"Okay, now we can talk about the next topic."
Without continuing the previous topic, the president suddenly changed the topic. "I think you should have received a secret notice. After the core of the Ark on Mars was moved away, an incomparably sturdy door was found below. No matter what method was used, it couldn't be opened."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and nodded their heads.
"But now I want to tell you the latest news."
Suddenly, the president showed a gratified smile. "Just yesterday, news came from the Olduvai Research Center again. After they used ultra-high-field lasers up to a million degrees to cut, the door finally showed signs of being cut open."
"How many people know about this news so far?"
Another senior official asked aloud.
"Very, very few. Except for the Olduvai Research Center on Mars, only a few people from United Aerospace Company and a few of us on Earth have received this news for the time being. In total, there are no more than thirty people in the world."
The president was full of confidence. "And I think it's best not to let these outsiders who call themselves Martians know. After all, no one knows what's under that door."
"Maybe it's the technology left behind by the Martian civilization."
The Minister of Foreign Affairs was a little hopeful. "If we can get the weird exoskeleton armor technology worn by that person before, that would be great..."
"That exoskeleton armor isn't much."
However, the Minister of Commerce next to him immediately curled his lips and said, "I'd prefer to get his supernatural power of flying and burrowing into the ground. That's almost a miracle!"
"Maybe it's the technology of immortality." “
Someone continued to add.
When it came to this, everyone became excited. It seemed that the alien heritage behind the door on Mars had completely fallen into their pockets.
"Okay, everyone, quiet!"
The president of Northern America pressed his hand down and suppressed the noise of the crowd. "We don't know what it is for the time being, but there must be something very precious inside. Because when we discovered the Ark teleportation platform on Mars, we had conducted various tests on the underground, but we didn't find any material outside the core of the Ark at all.
"In other words, this kind of thing was deliberately hidden, so hidden that our technology couldn't detect it at all. It wasn't until now that the core of the Ark was taken out that we completely discovered its existence..."
"Yes, this thing must not be known by those bandits!"
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
"Perhaps, the other party knows …"
Suddenly, the Minister of Defense, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. He asked in a low voice, "If the other party is really a prehistoric Martian civilization, then it's very likely that they know the existence of that door."
Everyone suddenly fell silent when they heard this.
"What you're saying is also possible."
The president nodded in agreement. "So my idea is that we just need to pretend to be stupid for the time being. If the other party didn't mention the door, it means that they don't know the existence of the door, right?
"Therefore, in any case, the confidentiality of this door must be done well. This is what I ask of you."
Everyone naturally promised again and again.
Only the Minister of Defense was still a little depressed. He stared blankly at the report in his hand. It was the description of the door found this time, from the size, pattern, material, and various speculations of the Olduvai Research Center.
And what was even more incredible was that the door was made of some unknown material. The entire door was extremely sturdy. Even the hardest drill bit was useless and there was no way to open it so far.
However, it was precisely this difficulty that made the people in the White House look forward to what was inside.
