Ye Han was speechless for a while. There was no one else who could choose this place. If anyone came out of this hole, wouldn't they fall headlong into the water?
Powered armor can be amphibious, but individual aircraft cannot. Although this thing is not afraid of water, the temperature is not low when it is working. If you throw it into the water and soak it for a while, it will alternate between cold and hot, and it may be scrapped directly.
He immediately shouted on the radio: "Bridge, bridge, this is Ye Han, please answer when you receive it!"
There was silence on the radio, no reply.
Luo Qi looked puzzled: "Boss, what's wrong?"
"It's okay!" Ye Han turned around and flew back, "Is there a repeater left in the ice cave?"
"Keep it!" Luo Qi's heart skipped a beat, "Did the ice block the signal?"
Ye Han was not in the mood to study why. Hearing this, he quickly walked around an ice wall and called the bridge again.
"Captain...Commander...hey...I...hey...what the hell!" This time there was finally a response, but the noise was a bit loud.
Ye Han continued to fly towards the ice cave: "Where is the road, 1.7 kilometers southwest, who dug the hole?"
"It's the Yonghe!" Probably because the distance is closer, the communication is much clearer.
"Remind Yonghe that their cave entrance is too low, only ten meters away from the water. Slow down when coming down," Ye Han said.
"clear!"
"Also, report to the flagship that the situation under the ice is very complicated and the communication distance is extremely short. For safety reasons, it is recommended that the reconnaissance troops move nearby. It is best not to leave the communication range, or to install repeaters in time."
"yes!"
After solving the problem of the ice cave, Ye Han shouted on the radio: "Every group pays attention, every group pays attention, everyone withdraws immediately, reply received!"
However, contact with the battleship was lost within a few kilometers. If the soldiers flew too far, the possibility of losing contact would be 100%.
"One group received!"
"4 groups received!"
"Six groups received..."
After a series of replies, there was no sound on the radio, and there was no response from groups three, five and nine.
Ye Han immediately shouted: "Attention, all groups, contact groups three, five and nine immediately. If you get in touch, give me a message!"
The radio immediately became chaotic, with calls from groups three, groups five and nine, and the calls coming from all directions were mixed together.
A few seconds later, a surprised voice came from the chaotic call: "Five groups, five groups, five groups have been contacted!"
"Group Nine, Group Nine has also been contacted!"
"Where is the third group? Is there any news from the third group?" Ye Han asked urgently.
"Yes, the third group has news and is heading back!"
Ye Han let out a long breath: "You ran pretty fast. Get back quickly. I'll wait for you at the ice cave!"
"yes!"
After calling Luo Qi, Ye Han flew back to the ice cave with Luo Qi. He originally wanted to find a place to hang himself, but he really didn't like hanging and resting, so he simply flew directly into the ice cave and used a laser gun at the entrance of the cave.
A side hole large enough to fit in was cut three to five meters above, and he nestled in the hole and waited for others to return.
The cut ice cubes were thrown away casually. They slowly fell for hundreds of meters, and finally fell to the sea, causing large splashes of water.
The ice cubes are not big, but Europa's gravity is low, so the water splash looks particularly big, and you can still vaguely hear the muffled sound of ice cubes smashing into the water.
Luo Qi peered at the water surface: "Can you still hear the sound of water? This place is not that empty!"
Ye Han sat down on the simple ice chair that he cut out at random, leaning his back against the ice wall and let out a sigh of relief: "Definitely, otherwise the water below would have boiled a long time ago, how could it be so peaceful?"
"I wish I had brought a barometer..."
The two of them were chatting with each other, but no one noticed that a pair of eyes was rising from the rippling water, staring unblinkingly at the conspicuous hole on the bottom of the ice - somewhere else."
The stars were shining brightly, but the area around the ice cave was completely dark, making it difficult not to stand out.
At this time, a reconnaissance team flew back from a distance, and the two people flew into the ice cave one after the other. The green tail flames left several clear traces on the eyes in the water waves.
The team members returned one after another, and the eyes carefully sank underwater and never came up again.
The last three groups returned. As soon as they got into the ice cave, they heard Ye Han's dissatisfied question: "Where did you two go?"
The two soldiers couldn't wait to present their treasures: "Captain, look what we captured!" While speaking, they sent a video to Ye Han.
Ye Han opened the video, and at the beginning there was an image of the laser about to cut through the ice. The dark ice was dimly illuminated by the laser, and the vines attached to the bottom of the ice were eclipsed.
The camera zooms out, and the laser suddenly penetrates the ice, and a layer of mist rises instantly on the water under the ice. The mist rises from bottom to top, and becomes more obvious the closer it is to the ice cave. When it pours into the ice cave
, the fog has become extremely thick, spinning like a tornado into the ice cave.
At the same time, the vines near the ice cave withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the little bits of light gradually extinguished with the ice cave as the center.
Luo Qi muttered in disappointment: "I thought the entire sea could be boiled!"
The corner of Ye Han's mouth twitched, and she thought to herself that I thought the same thing. It was only after seeing this video that I realized that I had been wrong.
He felt that the current situation was like a pressure cooker that had just been removed from the fire. The ice cover was the lid, and the ocean under the ice was the water in the pot that had just calmed down. Although the water temperature had exceeded the boiling temperature of the outside world, there was an ice cover.
The pressure in the pot raises the boiling point of the water, so the water surface always remains calm.
Ice holes penetrate the ice cover, just like opening a pressure reducing valve on a pot lid, the air under the ice immediately rushes out under the action of pressure.
Since the area of the ice cave is very small, if the water surface does not pass through the hole, there is only a small amount of water surface contacting the vacuum, and the water surface will inevitably boil violently.
But the actual situation is that the space under the ice is huge. It doesn’t matter even if all the air rushes out. As long as the surface of the water surface evaporates a little, the lost pressure can be made up. Unless the ice cover is completely uncovered, there is a possibility of widespread boiling of the water surface.
Extremely small.
Ye Han figured out the joints, but didn't think it was of any use. The environment on Europa was too special. Apart from here, he couldn't think of any other place where he could encounter a similar environment, let alone a place like this.
The environment and aliens are at odds with each other.
When everyone arrived, Luo Qi couldn't help but ask: "Boss, has our mission been completed?"
Ye Han thought for a moment and said, "It should be done."
"Then when are we going back? I don't want to stay in this damn place for a minute anymore." Luo Qi said while looking into the cave.
Ye Han said: "I don't want to stay too long, but do you think the flagship might let us withdraw first?"
