Chapter 850 Journey

Jiang Cheng controlled the drilling equipment, looking forward to its next performance.

This drilling equipment had just taken Jiang Cheng so much effort to transport from the landing center to here.

Of course, this thing must perform well enough to be worthy of Jiang Cheng's sweat.

Immediately, the drilling equipment showed its performance, making Jiang Cheng feel that his efforts were not in vain.

A big hole immediately appeared on the ice layer, and it continued to extend downward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The drill bit disappeared on the ground and drilled under the ice layer.

The efficiency of this drilling is really terrifying. In a blink of an eye, it drilled a distance of more than ten meters.

After a while, a deep hole appeared in front of Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng looked at the deepening hole in front of him and muttered to himself: "This is really good. It seems that this mission can be completed smoothly.

According to the current drilling efficiency, it won't take long to reach the location of the Alpha product.

As long as they can get in touch with the Alpha product, the subsequent work will become simple.

As long as Sifeng doesn't pass by here in a short time, this operation will definitely succeed.

It seems that there were no accidents in this mission, and Jiang Cheng can get the Alpha product that Sirong wanted.

Mr. Jiang, the drill has now reached the location of the Alpha product, and the drilling work can be completed.

After more than ten minutes of drilling, an astronaut who was testing the data began to report to Jiang Cheng. Come.

After Jiang Cheng heard the words of the astronaut, he began to operate the cobalt hole equipment and let the drill slowly come out of the hole.

Soon the drill returned to the ground, and a bottomless hole appeared in front of Jiang Cheng and his team.

This big hole leads directly to the location of the Alpha Knot, which is also the final destination of their operation.

Now Jiang Cheng and his team have penetrated the ice layer several hundred meters deep, and the Alpha Knot has been exposed in front of them.

What they have to do now is to go through the hole on the ice layer, descend to the location of the Alpha Knot, and then fix the Alpha crystal to the rope, and then they can set off to go back.

Seeing the hope that the mission will be completed soon, all the astronauts began to get excited.

No one wants to stay in a ghost place like Neptune for a long time. It is better to be able to go back early. It would be a good thing to click back.

What's more, they can complete this difficult task, and victory is right in front of them.

After seeing that the drilling work was finished, Jiang Cheng directly threw the controller in his hand and stopped caring about the drilling control equipment.

Jiang Cheng was not interested in moving such a heavy device back to the landing center, so Jiang Cheng planned to abandon the device directly on Neptune this time.

It would not cost Jiang Cheng much money to manufacture such a device, so Jiang Cheng would not feel bad even if he threw it away directly.

Anyway, this device has completed all its missions, and it is time for it to die.

After abandoning the drilling equipment, Jiang Cheng began to tie a rope to himself, preparing to approach the Alpha Knot by rappelling.

Prepare to rappel immediately, Come with me.

The remaining two people are waiting up there, ready to support us at any time.

Because the size of this hole on the ice is limited, it can only accommodate two people at the same time.

In addition, someone needs to watch it up there, so Jiang Cheng arranged two astronauts to stay up there, and only one astronaut needs to go down with him.

"I'll go down with Mr. Jiang. My physical strength is a little better, and I'm more suitable for this kind of work-".

A young astronaut took the initiative to stand up at this time, ready to rappel down with Jiang Cheng.

It seems that this young astronaut is still very courageous, at least he did not retreat in front of the dark hole.

This big hole that goes directly to the ice layer hundreds of meters deep is scary enough to look at, and you can't see the bottom at a glance.

Most people don't really rappel down here, especially in the environment of Neptune, the danger is too great.

As long as you are a little careless, you may stay in this hole forever.

At that time, Corpse City could not return to the water ball, and could only stay on the cold planet of Neptune, frozen by the thick ice.

This kind of end is terrible just to think about, and it is good enough that he can stand up at this time.

Since this young man took the initiative to ask to go down with Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng readily agreed to his request.

Okay, you can rappel down with me.

The remaining two people will stay on the ground and pay attention to the situation in the surrounding area at any time. If there is any accident, notify us immediately.

Jiang Cheng explained it as quickly as possible and began to prepare for the rappel.

Two minutes later, Jiang Cheng and the astronaut firmly fixed the rope on their bodies.

Let's go!

After getting ready, Jiang Cheng counted down to three, and then jumped into the dark hole.

Jiang Cheng was in the ice layer and tried to control his falling speed with the rappel device.

The rappel device and the rope began to rub violently, and the resistance generated by the friction began to offset Jiang Cheng's own gravity, making Jiang Cheng's falling speed become more stable.

Jiang Cheng descended towards the bottom little by little, slowly approaching the location of the Net Erfa knot.

The young astronaut behind him also followed Jiang Cheng down.

The two figures slowly disappeared at the entrance of the cave and sank into the deep darkness.

Because the depth under the ice layer was too great, and there was not enough sunlight on Neptune, it was extremely dark inside, to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

If it weren't for the lighting equipment on the space suit, Jiang Cheng and his companions would not know where they were now.

With the help of the lighting equipment on the space suit, Jiang Cheng could see the situation in the surrounding area clearly.

There were very few impurities in the ice layer on Neptune, and it looked very crystal clear.

There was a thick layer of ice all around, and Jiang Cheng and his companions were now in the middle.

Now Jiang Cheng couldn't see the entrance of the cave on the top when he looked up, and he couldn't see the bottom when he looked down.

Being in such a place where you are neither up nor down is the most frightening thing.

The dark and narrow environment around would arouse the deepest fear in people's hearts.

This kind of environment is very depressing, and people with poor psychological quality may go crazy after staying for a while.

Fortunately, both Jiang Cheng and the young astronaut were mentally strong.

They ignored the environment they were in and focused on descending to the bottom.

After a period of dark journey, Jiang Cheng finally saw the Alpha Knot under his feet.

The Alpha Knot was not very big, only less than one meter long.
