Ye Han exhaled the turbid air in his chest: "I hope... let's go back and see the river valley."
"What's there to see in the river valley?" Xiao Yuan asked strangely.
Others looked at Ye Han curiously after hearing this.
"There is a distress signal in the river valley, which was discovered by the Tiangong," Ye Han said.
Everyone understood instantly and asked to go together to check the situation, but it was true that there was not enough people needed. Ye Han ordered the large troops to stand by and only brought Xiao Yuan and a combat team with him.
Returning to the river valley, Ye Han was surprised to find that the bridge still spanned the top of the river valley. Except that the bridge deck was more damaged, no other problems could be seen.
Xiao Yuan sighed: "This silly, big, thick, and black guy also has the advantages of being silly, big, thick, and black. In one word, strong!"
"You learned mathematics from your physical education teacher, right? Is this the same word?" Ye Han stood on the edge of the cliff, holding a telescope to carefully observe the river valley.
"One word, I mean one word!"
Ye Han put down the telescope: "Did you see it? The small waterfalls on the opposite side are gone, but the water outlets are still there."
"Did the cave collapse block the waterway?" Xiao Yuan guessed.
"Do you also think those waterfalls are connected to the underground lake?"
"I dare not say whether it is connected to the underground lake, but it must be part of the underground water system, and maybe it is also the exit of the insect nest... Captain, are you saying that a soldier came out of the waterfall?"
Ye Han nodded: "In such a complicated cave, I can't even walk six kilometers in half an hour, unless I jump into the underground river and let the water flow out!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and take a look!"
"That's exactly what I meant."
Ye Han used the radio to call an armored vehicle, used the winch on the vehicle to place ropes, and lowered the soldiers into the river valley one by one. Finally, he himself followed.
The height difference in the river valley is not small, but the river water only reaches the knees, and in deeper places it only reaches the thighs. The soldiers who came down first have dispersed to various places under the waterfall, carefully searching every inch of the river bed.
Before coming down, Ye Han had high hopes, but with so many people coming down, no one came forward, which already explained the problem, and Ye Han's heart gradually fell into the bottom again.
"Did you find anything?" Ye Han asked with a hint of hope.
"Not yet." Xiao Yuan said, "The waterfalls have stopped flowing. How about we can find out where the water falls? Now there is no other way but to cast a big net."
"Have you looked under the waterfall?"
"I looked for it, but couldn't find it."
"Don't gather people here. Split into two waves, send a few people upstream, and the rest will go downstream."
"yes!"
More soldiers went down to the river valley, divided into two teams, one more and one less. They divided into two directions to launch a net search.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and the light in the river valley is especially dim. The soldiers have to rely on night vision devices to see properly.
This place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and it happens to be the first month of the lunar calendar. There are only twinkling stars in the sky. Although it can't be said that I can't see my fingers, it's not much better.
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour passed. A soldier walking in the river suddenly kicked something. This thing was much lighter than the stones in the river.
He immediately lowered his head, stared blankly at the thing in the water, and suddenly jumped into the water.
The soldier's unusual actions alerted his companions, and everyone turned their attention.
The soldier who jumped into the water stood up holding a helmet: "I found it, I found it!"
Liu Bin, who was leading the team, waded through the river and rushed to the soldier. The soldier handed over his helmet: "Captain, I found it!"
"Good job!" Liu Bin looked at the helmet, turned on the radio and said, "601, we found a helmet downstream."
"Only a helmet?" Ye Han asked.
"Only the helmet." Liu Bin said.
Ye Han sighed: "I understand, please withdraw."
The situation finally became clear. No one came out of the waterfall, only a helmet came out.
The helmet of the power armor is not simple at all. Instead, it is the most complex part of the entire armor. It contains various subsystems such as display, observation, communication, and fire control. In addition to normal communication, the communication system can also be used in emergencies.
Automatically send a distress signal if necessary.
The emergencies mentioned here include various major failures such as armor power outage.
In order to prevent the communication equipment from failing due to power outage, the designers also added a battery to the communication equipment. However, this battery is very small and cannot even support the normal operation of the communication equipment. It can only ensure that the communication equipment sends out a call for help in an emergency.
Signal.
It can be said that this battery is the last resort for power armor.
Luo Qi's battery pack was destroyed by a wolf insect before, and the armor had activated a distress device, but Ye Han and others were surrounding Luo Qi and ignored the distress signal.
However, the battery is very small, the power is limited, the signal duration is very short, and the propagation distance is also limited. Its only function is to promptly notify others of armor malfunctions.
It was a coincidence that Tiangong received this signal. There must have been large receiving equipment aimed at this area at that time, otherwise it would have been impossible to receive such a weak distress signal.
When Liu Bin handed the helmet to Ye Han, Ye Han held the helmet in silence for a long time, and his thoughts finally turned into a sigh: "Okay, let's close the team."
After working for a long time, only one helmet was found. The search operation came to an end, and the team members were all dejected.
It was getting late and there was no need to rush all night, so Ye Han made the decision to camp on the spot.
The soldiers began to set up camp, and Ye Han asked for Tongtian Palace's communication: "Tiangong, I am 601."
"Tiangong received it, 601 please speak."
"Search ended, only one helmet found."
"Tiangong understands."
"Tiangong, please transfer 104 for me."
"Hold on……"
After a moment, Gao Kai's voice appeared: "601, I am 104."
"104, have you found anything in other directions?"
"Yes, your suggestion is very useful. 201, 401 and 901 have all discovered the insect nest."
"That's good news. Did it all explode?"
"Not yet, but it will be soon...what do you think?" Gao Kai found that he had a little expectation.
"I don't have any ideas. I originally thought that just using nuclear bombs might escape the trap, but after seeing the nuclear bomb explode with my own eyes, I am now sure that no matter how many bugs there are in that hole, they will be completely wiped out."
"Is there something in your words? What else can we use instead of nuclear bombs?"
"Let the warships throw stones, and it will save Mao Zi from arguing with Beidu." Ye Han said, "It is impossible for Mao Zi not to hear such a loud noise like a nuclear explosion."
"What can we do if we hear that? Beidu dares to let us cross the border, how can we be afraid of the hairy thorns?" Gao Kai snorted coldly, "Just leave such a big insect nest in their home, and they won't let us take care of it themselves? How can there be such a reason?
?It’s good that you didn’t clean up the matter because of the insect nest, but you still dare to come out and explode the thorns?”
