Only need to reach that depth?
Does that mean we don't need to worry about whether the people on the nuclear submarine can come back or not?
No, no.
To be precise, they're definitely not coming back.
The atmosphere in the conference room instantly fell silent.
"Can we send some robots down there?"
"Impossible, these things are even weaker than the human body, especially precision robots, don't get fooled by what you see in sci-fi movies."
Uh...
That's indeed true.
Jiang Xiao remembered that during New Years, the headmaster would sometimes give him robot toys, and they'd break with just a little bump.
Truly not durable.
"Is there only that one solution?"
If possible, Jiang Xiao didn't want to use human lives to fill in, and even doing so might not solve the problem.
"Not the only solution, but there's no other solution for now."
These experts believe that given enough time, gathering the world's top talents, equipment, and materials, reaching that depth is not a challenge.
But the problem is, there's not enough time for humanity now...
After a moment of silence, everyone tacitly decided to explore this proposal for now.
But new problems emerged again.
This operation is clearly taking human lives to pile up, how many to send? Whose people to send?
These are the main points.
For a moment, the conference room was filled with arguments again, anxiety and dissatisfaction evident on everyone's faces.
Some think the navy should send elites, others suggest that the research institutes should send the best scholars, and some even propose drawing people directly from special forces.
In the midst of the disputes, reasons and rebuttals arose one after another, creating a tense and chaotic atmosphere.
Jiang Xiao watched all this, feeling a sense of powerlessness deep in his heart.
He knew that this operation required not only warriors with excellent physical fitness but also scholars with profound knowledge.
Because they not only had to face the extreme environment of the deep sea but were also likely to communicate with highly intelligent deep divers.
In such a situation, it's not possible to send burly but simple-minded people for negotiation, right?
"Everyone quiet down!"
Jiang Xiao's voice suddenly echoed in the conference room, his eyes firm and powerful.
"What we need now is not quarrels but a feasible plan. For this operation, we need all-round talents, people with outstanding physical attributes and rich knowledge reserves."
"We need those who can survive in extreme environments, with high emotional intelligence, who can communicate amicably if encountering deep divers, and must have profound ocean experience to handle various possible complex situations. We cannot afford any mistake, or the entire humanity will face destruction."
"Everyone needs to be a bit braver; it's no big deal! This is for the survival of humanity! You experts, it's already such a time, and still bickering, how does that look!"
"This operation is our responsibility and duty; it's an unyielding spirit!"
Jiang Xiao's words were so impactful that everyone present felt their faces heat up.
As native personnel of the Kaidan world, their awareness was still not as high as the might of the Lord...
Seeing the shamed expressions of these people, Jiang Xiao nodded in satisfaction and continued.
"Besides, if you don't go and he doesn't go, am I supposed to go?"
Everyone: ???
You b**** %¥#%!
"So, how should we select these people?"
An old general stood up and asked, his voice steady and powerful.
"We can select the best candidates from various fields, then conduct rigorous physical and knowledge tests."
Lin Feng proposed his idea.
"Only those who perform well in the tests are qualified to participate in this operation."
"I agree."
Another expert nodded in agreement.
"What we need is the elite of the elite, without any loss."
After a round of discussions, everyone finally reached a consensus.
They decided to screen personnel from across the country who met specific standards in physical fitness and knowledge level.
Then conduct a series of tests and training on them to ensure they are qualified for this dangerous mission to the deep sea.
In the following days, elites from all over the country were urgently assembled.
They included navy divers, top scholars from research institutes, and elite members from special forces.
Finally, they were taken to a secret base, where they began the harsh selection and training.
Everyone understood that what awaited them was an unprecedented challenge, or to be more straightforward, they were going to their deaths.
But for the future of humanity, they had no room for retreat.
They must face the upcoming unknown deep-sea journey with the strongest will and the firmest conviction.
Deep Sea Embers!
.....
The Kaidan world made significant progress.
But meanwhile, on Blue Star, Director Wang aged within just a few days.
Director Wang stood before the pyramid, looking at the ancient structure with a heavy heart.
Since Sun Wei's disappearance, he knew this pyramid was anything but ordinary, hiding secrets unknown, perhaps related to the future of humanity.
He had sent multiple teams, each composed of elite members, rigorously selected and specially trained experts.
However, every expedition ended in failure, with no one able to uncover the pyramid's mysterious veil.
Even more heartbreaking for Director Wang was the fact that many of those expeditions never returned.
Their deaths were unusually bizarre, some seemingly crushed by invisible forces, others with faces showing fear and pain.
Like they saw something incredible in their last moments of life.
Director Wang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his inner turmoil.
He knew this couldn't go on; he had to find the key to solving the pyramid's mystery.
Just then, a figure rushed over—it was his capable assistant, Li Gang.
"Director, we've discovered a new clue." Li Gang's voice carried a trace of excitement.
Director Wang opened his eyes, quickly turning around: "Speak."
"We've found some strange symbols on the outskirts of the pyramid, symbols not seen in previous expeditions, and most perplexing is their remote location inside the pyramid, yet inexplicably well-preserved, which is very unusual!"
"We've invited experts for analysis, and they believe it could be an ancient code."
A glimmer of light flashed in Director Wang's eyes.
"A code? Are you saying these symbols could be the key to the pyramid's secret?"
Li Gang nodded: "Yes, we've already started deciphering it, but it will take time."
Director Wang pondered for a moment: "We don't have much time. Immediately organize the best cryptographers and archaeologists to fully decode these symbols."
"Yes, Director!" Li Gang promptly took action.
Director Wang looked at the pyramid again, the anxiety and urgency in his heart growing stronger.
He was aware that each failed expedition meant a loss of life, and he couldn't allow any more unnecessary sacrifices.
As he stared at the pyramid, something seemed to be watching him from within its shadows, an ominous premonition surfacing in his heart.
What secrets does this pyramid hide? Why does it pose such a threat to humanity?
Director Wang knew he had to find the answers quickly.
He not only needed to avenge those fallen warriors but also to unveil the pyramid's mysteries for humanity's future.
Wait?
Symbols? For some reason, Director Wang had a thought and called Li Gang back.
"Time is tight, and the task is heavy, I have an idea..."
After a pause, Director Wang continued.
"What I mean is, while deciphering the secrets, can we make rubbings of these symbols, create something like an amulet to let the teams entering the pyramid wear and see the effect?"
