At first glance, Dagu thought it was a black statue, because the things in the box were so dark, it looked like coal was coated with ink, and it was also very large, much larger than a human being.
But when he looked carefully, Dagu discovered that this extremely huge insect could never be carved by man. The details were real, the lines were as fine as a millimeter but lifelike, the claws were ferocious with a cold light, and the layer on the body surface
Even every fold of the stratum corneum is clearly visible.
Even the most advanced 3D printers cannot produce such realistic statues, not to mention that statues always have less charm than the real thing.
In other words, the box in front of you contains real things.
Such a big insect, one pot...
How come there are such big insects?
And why did he show up at the airport with his and Lina’s names on his name?
...
A series of questions lingered in Dagu's mind, making him extremely confused. He thought about many possibilities before opening the box, and even guessed that there might be a bomb inside, but he never expected that it was actually a than human.
The large cockroach-like insect was really unexpected.
Who would have thought of this?
I have never heard of such a big insect, let alone seen it.
Could it be that he was exposed to radiation?
A guess flashed through Dagu's mind, but he immediately rejected it. Because of the problem of nuclear weapons, all of them were destroyed after Director Sawai established the TPC. Even the nuclear power plants have been shut down long ago. How can there be any radiation? Even if there is, as long as it is
If you want to save face, you won’t pollute the environment.
But if it weren't for radiation, why would this insect grow so big? Could it be that it's a visitor from the universe?
Dagu was just thinking about it when he saw Lina, who had evacuated the surrounding passengers, was about to come over. He quickly stopped him and said, "Lina, don't come over yet."
"What's wrong?"
"This thing..." Dagu struggled for a long time before saying: "There is something wrong with it, please contact Horii and let him take a look."
"clear."
Although Lina didn't know what Dagu saw, she still hurriedly contacted Horii. Just as she dialed the number, she saw Shinjo rushing in and asked breathlessly: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"There is a box with my and Dagu's names on it. It comes from the conveyor belt. Dagu asked Horii team members to see what is inside." Lina briefly introduced it, and then saw Horii answer the phone and hurriedly called again.
He repeated what he just said.
Horii's reaction was the same as Shinjo's. When he heard a strange box with Dagu and Lina's names appearing on the luggage conveyor belt, he immediately said: "Stay away and wait for the crisis management team."
Dagu came over and said, "It's a bug."
"Insects?!" Shinjo and Horii said in unison, unable to hide their surprise.
Isn't it a bit... um... for a bug to cause such a big battle?
"Big bugs." Dagu added.
"How big can it be?" Xincheng curled his lips. Two seconds later, his mouth was open enough to hold his fist, and he didn't even close it for a while. The finger pointing at the box was trembling, and he stammered.
: "This...this...this..."
"Such a big bug." Horii was about to lie down on the screen. His already big eyes were as wide as bells at this moment, looking at the screen in disbelief at the giant bugs that almost filled the box.
Is this because he is sought after by thousands of people, or because he has crazy fans? Otherwise, how could he have become like this?
"I'll be there right away." Horii suddenly became energetic, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to crawl out of the screen, so that he could reach the scene in one second and immediately see this big and strange insect.
After finally 'pacifying' Horii and letting him rush over in a realistic way, Dagu raised his head and looked around, seeing a large number of onlookers, giving full play to his curious nature.
"Why don't we move this thing outside first."
Xincheng also recovered from the shock and felt helpless towards the growing crowd. If something happened, it would be troublesome.
The two of them grabbed the huge box one after the other and lifted it up with both arms.
"It's really heavy."
"It's just like stone."
Lina opened the way in front, while Dagu and Xincheng struggled to carry the box and walked out. A group of curious people were surrounding them, taking photos and videos. If the guards hadn't arrived in time to help them prevent the crowd from approaching, they might not have been able to do anything.
I can't get out of this place for half an hour.
It took a long time to lift the box to the open space outside. Dagu and Xincheng straightened up, breathed a long sigh of relief at the same time, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and were about to say something when they caught a glimpse of someone from the corner of their eyes.
Opening the taxi door, he glanced over here seemingly inadvertently, and his eyes met with Dagu's.
"Huh?"
Dagu immediately frowned and stared at the young man, but the other man smiled at him and got into the taxi. Then the vehicle started and quickly drove away, disappearing into the sea of traffic in a few breaths.
Gone.
"What's wrong? Dagu!"
Lina noticed something strange about Dagu and hurriedly stepped forward to ask. However, she saw that Dagu still frowned and said, "That person feels like..."
Lina, who waited for a long time without waiting for the next step, asked: "...What does it look like?"
"Familiar? I seem to have seen it somewhere before!" Da Gu thought hard, but he couldn't remember where this inexplicable feeling of familiarity came from.
Lina guessed: "Have you seen it during travel?"
Dagu shook his head and said, "I can't remember where I saw him."
In the taxi that was driving away, Chiba Makoto was staring at the small screen on the back of the seat, which was broadcasting news and introducing matters related to the development of Mars.
"Sure enough, the world is also shifting conflicts." Qianye Cheng thought silently in his heart.
The best way to resolve conflicts is to move them out.
Every major disaster is a disaster for the common people, a disaster that causes countless people to lose the wealth they have worked hard for half a life. For the powerful, it is a carnival, a feast that is enough to make their mouths full of oil.
This is very detrimental to the normal, orderly, and healthy development of the world. Therefore, in order to prevent this bad situation from happening, TPC promotes the development of Mars, establishes a second home for mankind, and diverts people's attention away from internal friction.
.
Just like the Western Development in North America a few centuries ago, it attracted countless people to flock here, and people from all walks of life, including civilians, became rich in that large-scale development.
The wealth and opportunities contained in the large-scale development of Mars are countless times greater than that of the large-scale development of the West, because after the Mars base is established, there will be a stable base from which to go to the asteroid belt and even the satellites of Jupiter beyond.
Build a base and mine mineral resources.
Although such a large-scale development requires a large initial investment, the returns will be greater and the significance will be more far-reaching. Human beings will no longer consume the earth's resources alone, but will begin to integrate the resources of the solar system to help mankind advance outside the solar system.
...
This report made within TPC was as thick as a book. After the staff department made this report, Director Sawai gave a copy to Chiba Makoto.
In short, the new field plan with the development of Mars as the first step is extremely important to the earth and mankind. It will leave a mark in human history and break the post-disaster crisis.
In a complex situation, it can be said that one kills two birds with one stone.
Before Chiba Makoto left the solar system, TPC had completed its reorganization and vigorously promoted the construction of Mars City. It had also achieved certain results and had begun to recruit the first batch of volunteers to live in the first Mars city for a long time.
In this world, this great plan is still in the preparation stage. Mars City is under intense construction and does not yet meet the conditions for immigration, and the advertisement played in the taxi is recruiting volunteers.
Not only are there academic requirements, but they also need to have a certain skill and undergo a one-year training. Only those who pass strict selection at all levels can become the first batch of Mars immigrants and go to the Mars city that is about to be completed.
"Develop Mars." Chiba Cheng sighed softly. No matter which world it is, human beings are yearning for the starry sky, and there is a group of people who can do it.
but...
Chiba Cheng turned his head and looked out the window. Perhaps the intensity of the battle was not strong enough compared to the one he experienced. Many buildings and roads along the way were still as they were in memory, not as they had been rebuilt.
Pedestrians and vehicles come and go on the busy road.
Interstellar development is a great and sacred undertaking that must be carried out for mankind. Its achievements will last for a long time. It is the future of mankind. However, for now and even in the following decades, it has nothing to do with the vast majority of people. They can only watch it through TV and
Use your mobile phone to watch the greatness of mankind and use it as a conversation piece after dinner.
"Kisarazu is here."
The car began to slow down until it stopped on the side of the road.
Chiba Makoto opened his wallet and revealed a row of old banknotes. Ever since he almost died of heat, thirst, and starvation because of the money that was too 'advanced', Chiba Makoto prepared some old banknotes for himself to prevent another tragedy.
occur.
After paying the fare, the taxi sped away, leaving only Chiba Cheng standing on the side of the road, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar street.
Roads, street signs, even telephone poles and houses are still as they are in memory. Kisarazu in this world does not have himself, so he has been protected from repeated attacks by monsters and aliens. Naturally, he does not need to rebuild again and again, and he can always maintain his original appearance.
appearance.
Therefore, Chiba Makoto has always believed that a world without Ultraman is the happiest world.
He was very fortunate that in the several worlds he had experienced, Ultraman was no longer needed. People there could live peacefully without fear or fear.
Although we still have to run for life, even though we still have to face the ups and downs of life, after all, we no longer have an extraordinary existence.
Just like this small town, it still maintains its ancient appearance and has not become 'modern' or 'advanced' due to many reconstructions.
Just keep it like this.
But how long can it last?
Chiba Makoto looked at the 'Mars Development' flyer hanging on the telephone pole on the roadside. The lively villages have become old as young people have entered the city. But this year, young people have begun to leave the earth and enter the universe, heading towards
As more distant 'cities' advance, the earth will gradually become a quiet village.
Familiar people and things will slowly disappear until they are beyond recognition, leaving only a name that is gradually forgotten, confirming the accuracy of the memory.
For immortal species, living in a rapidly changing world is actually a kind of torture.
Just like Obik, he is nostalgic for the past, misses the past, and even wants to go back to the past. But even if the mountain is not developed into an amusement park, everything will eventually change when the universe age comes.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Those who do not belong to this world, those who cannot keep up with the development of the times, and those who cannot adapt to the changes around them, will eventually be eliminated.
Without exception!
well!
Chiba Cheng sighed deeply and looked at this familiar street with some nostalgia. This is the place where he has lived the longest and where he has left the most unforgettable memories, but he can only live in this 'strange' world.
, see it for what it is.
Although he hasn't been back for a long time, Chiba Cheng can imagine how big changes will happen there.
Due to the doomsday disaster, the damage was extremely serious. In the city's planning, Kisarazu is no longer used as a residential area. Instead, factories and warehouses are built to produce spacecraft parts for interstellar navigation. It has become a screw in the new field era.
.
This is the case now, but what will happen in the future?
No one can predict, no one can be sure. All we can see is the immediate point, and the only thing farther away is looking at it.
Looking at the familiar streets, many thoughts flashed through Chiba Cheng's mind. Maybe he had been away for too long, and suddenly returning to this familiar place made him a little sentimental.
"It's time to go back." Qianye Cheng thought this way. He originally planned to go back to the Kingdom of Light, but encountered various things that kept him from being able to get away.
When I was on the earth, I felt that something was always going to happen on the earth, but when I came to the broader universe, I realized that there were more and more serious things in the universe, and a slight mistake could lead to a crisis of devastating magnitude.
We should indeed be thankful that there is a Kingdom of Light in the universe, and Ultraman's justice has given the weak a place to live.
squeak!!!
A sharp sound of tire friction interrupted Chiba Cheng's thoughts. He turned around and saw an ordinary car, stopping at the corner of the street with a sudden stop. Through the window glass, he saw
When the three people arrived and stared at them eagerly, although they were wearing very ordinary clothes, they couldn't hide the aura of the victorious team.
"It came really fast." Chiba Cheng muttered, then turned around, stood facing that way, and raised his hand to wave in a friendly manner.
It's just that this move resulted in being faced with a formidable enemy.
From Dagu to Lina and Xincheng, everyone looked serious and their eyes were full of vigilance. If they hadn't just returned from a trip, they would probably have touched a gun.
"Sure enough, it's this guy." Xincheng touched the gun. He was always on duty, unlike Dagu and Lina who traveled all over the world, so he went out to pick up people and still brought the Shengli Haipa gun. Unexpectedly, he was sent
Use your bare hands to deal with such a mysterious guy.
