Chapter 446 (1/2)
The temperature at the bottom of the cave under the ice is minus 42 degrees.
Zhang Shaoyuan is looking at the things in front of him.
His integrated automatic lighting device senses the controlled action and body position, and quickly adjusts the lighting direction, facing the front.
Right there, the radar showed that there was a ”living creature”, and it was not any of the six of them, nor was it a UAV.
It was a translucent, grayish white mass, about the size of an old-fashioned mailbox.
In other words, its body is light gray, and its hair about ten centimeters long is translucent light white.
These translucent ”hairs” swing gently like life, changing the color a little, as if to make the body covered by ”hair” more transparent, just like it does not exist.
This appearance makes it like a chameleon in this almost absolutely dark environment, which is not obvious and easy to be ignored.
In this dark environment, follow the light. If you don't take a closer look, you won't even realize that there is such a thing there.
Just now, it was this thing that made Zhang Shaoyuan's team send out a series of alarms.
It has no body temperature.
The outer layer of ”hair” is not used for heat preservation, but a natural defense organ.
Moreover, just now, it has been moving. Until now it has been completely discovered and illuminated, it has completely stopped moving. Like a strange coral or other floating aquatic organisms, only the ”hair” on its body swings with breath and breath.
It doesn't move.
It feels like a person who has never seen light. When he sees light, he thinks it is something special and dangerous. He is too scared to move.
For a moment, it was quiet.
No one in the team spoke, only by gestures. Because the signal was disturbed, their internal communication devices were turned off. At this time, speaking means making a real sound.
And making a noise is likely to disturb things in this position.
Zhang Shaoyuan made several gestures to instruct the two soldiers to move slowly and encircle the past with weapons, while he took the other four soldiers to attract attention in the front and approach slowly.
This translucent creature seems to have no eyes.
This may be related to the dark environment here, but it means that it has other ways to perceive and it is impossible to determine whether it is aggressive or not.
Zhang Shaoyuan did not intend to shrink back. He was a soldier of the Xinjing fleet and a man in the interstellar era. He still had weapons in his hands. If this creature was really a creature, it could not be anything advanced. At most, it was a ”wild animal from another planet”.
Most importantly, their task is to discover, detect, identify and eliminate risks.
Zhang Shaoyuan wanted to bring a sample up, so he planned to catch it alive.
The previous judgment seemed right. It was very timid. Under the light of Zhang Shaoyuan, it shrank and dared not move.
Zhang Shaoyuan noticed that with the approach of six people on his side, the swinging frequency of the windless translucent hair on his body was getting higher.
Obviously, it sensed the approach, felt nervous, but did not dare to move.
The whole process went smoothly. He was a timid and cowardly creature.
