Chapter 487: Skin or Armor?

After solving the language system problems, Lu Yongchang and Mao Zhengzhi's attention returned to the giant fish's surface skin.

Looking at the various detection data in the holographic projection, the two fell into silence together.

"This is definitely not something that biological organisms can grow." Mao Zhengzhi said confidently, "If this thing grows naturally, I will go to the ice superstar to eat a giant fish!"

Lv Yongchang: "...Are you sure?"

g, looking at Lu Yongchang's teasing gaze, Mao Zhengzhi raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose with some guilt.

"Absolutely...is it sure?"

"Anyway, I don't believe that organisms made of cells can grow this alloy from the body!"

"Don't forget, there is a fusion reactor in the giant fish's body!" Mao Zhengzhi lowered his voice and reminded Lu Yongchang, "You said, are these giant fish artificial products?"

"There may be higher civilizations living in the depths of this liquid ammonia ocean!"

Lu Yongchang looked at Mao Zhengzhi with a fool-like look: "Then why do these giant fish still use such an ancient way of communication?"

“Isn’t electromagnetic wave communication delicious?”

“Is quantum over-distance communication not easy to use?”

Mao Zhengzhi looked suffocated: "..."

"cough!"

"I, I'm just kidding, liven up the atmosphere..."

Lu Yongchang waved his hand helplessly: "There are too few samples, I guess I have to wait for the next exploration..."

"professor."

"There was something abnormal in the exploration ship."

The moment the sound rang, Zero's virtual image appeared beside Lu Yongchang: "After comprehensive evaluation, I think you should be interested in this abnormal condition."

“【Poseidon】?”

Lu Yongchang subconsciously frowned.

A few days passed, and if it weren't for Zero's words, he would have forgotten the abandoned exploration ship - although the various sensors inside it were still working diligently to provide humans with various data.

"Have you given up on that giant fish?" Mao Zhengzhi's sigh sounded, "I'm stubborn enough, I really don't know why it did this..."

Lu Yongchang didn't say anything, but just nodded to Zero's virtual image.

The next moment, Zero's virtual image turned into light particles and dissipated in the air, and a holographic projection appeared in the same position.

"After a long time of impact, [Poseidon] Currently, only the main searchlight and the main camera are still working normally." Zero explained softly, "Just five minutes ago, under the impact of the giant fish, the armor at the stern of the exploration ship occurred.

A small area of ​​damage.”

Lu Yongchang frowned: "So, what is the abnormal situation you are talking about?"

Under zero control, the exploration ship turned a corner with difficulty.

The holographic image rotates slowly.

Under the strong light of the main searchlight, an amazing picture appeared in front of the two of them.

The tail of the giant fish, which was originally dark brown, was stained with some silver-white substance.

"This..." A guess flashed through Lu Yongchang's mind, and he took a step forward with an excited expression, "Is this the armor on the surface of the exploration ship?"

"After comparing in all aspects, yes." Zero affirmed Lu Yongchang's speculation.

"I understand...I understand!"

Lu Yongchang clapped his hands hard: "You are right, that's not something that grows from the giant fish at all!"

"That thing is not skin at all!"

"We're all misled!"

Mao Zhengzhi naturally understood the meaning of Lu Yongchang's words.

At this moment, he was also a little excited.

On the one hand, it was because the puzzle that plagued them for several days was finally solved.

On the other hand, he sighed from the bottom of his heart - he didn't have to go to the ice superstar to eat giant fish.

"Just..." After a brief excitement, a hint of doubt flashed in Lu Yongchang's eyes, "How did it get the armor of the [Exploration Ship] on itself?"

Mao Zhengzhi shrugged: "It may be some kind of mucus secreted from his body."

"Wait, maybe it will be demonstrated to us in person soon."

...

As Mao Zhengzhi said.

The stability of the [Exploration Ship] after the armor is damaged has dropped significantly.

After two impacts, another huge piece of silver-white armor fell off from the hull and slowly sank towards the dark liquid ammonia seabed.

The silver-white armor was filled with various scratches and impact marks.

Just like the dark brown "armor" on the giant fish.

"zero!"

Lv Yongchang looked at the violent vibration and shaking scene in front of him and said excitedly: "Adjust adjust the pose of the exploration boat! Keep up with the movement of the giant fish, I want to see what it did!"

The picture gradually stabilized, and the scenes gradually became clearer.

I saw a streamlined giant fish, after a brief acceleration, hit the side of its body hard towards the silver-white armor.

It can be clearly seen through the high-precision camera that the giant fish's body surface is covered with a layer of transparent mucus.

A dull sound came along the liquid ammonia sea water, and at the same time, the silver-white armor pressed tightly against the surface of the giant fish's side.

After confirming that the silver-white armor was attached to the surface of the body, the giant fish stopped and quietly suspended in the liquid ammonia sea water.

The exploration ship gradually approached and "slammed" the camera beside the giant fish.

The transparent mucus is increasing, gradually covering the silver-white armor.

Then, under the gaze of Lu Yongchang and Mao Zhengzhi, this layer of flowing mucus gradually solidified.

The silver-white armor, like a layer of skin, attached tightly to the surface of the giant fish, just like the dark brown unknown alloy.

The giant fish swung its body and took action again.

Bang!

After a brief wait, the exploration ship was knocked away again.

But this time, the picture disappeared after a violent tremor.

Apparently, the camera on the exploration ship was completely damaged in this impact.

Lu Yongchang waved his hand gently and "dumped" the holographic projection in front of him to the side: "It seems that this ice superstar is not wrong."

Mao Zhengzhi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I didn't expect that hitting hard objects was the nature and instinct of these giant fish."

"If nothing unexpected happens, there will inevitably be some special mineral resource in the depths of the liquid ammonia ocean."

"The "armor" on the giant fish is probably "casting" there."

"Ore with such high strength should be able to become the hull material for asteroid-class warships after treatment!" Lu Yongchang's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he issued an order without hesitation, "Zero, expand production capacity!"

"Increase the number of [Poseidon Type 2] exploration ships."

"Mobilize three [engineering ships] and three [Taotie] material reserve ships, complete the material reserves and go to the ice superstar!"

"When the language system cracking work is completed, the second mineral exploration project will be started!"
Chapter completed!
