Halsey looked at Venus in William's hand, thought for a moment, and said softly:
"William, since this abnormal phenomenon can appear on Venus, it means that it is at least at the level of Euclid."
"Yeah." William also agreed with Halsey's point of view.
After all, the surface environment of Venus is simply more cruel than hell.
Venus is called 'Morning Star' in China, while the Western world calls it Aphrodite or Venus, both of which are Goddess of love and beauty.
Because in the eyes of people at the time, Venus was a mysterious planet with a better environment than the Earth.
But this is not the case.
The country that launched the most landing probes to Venus is the defunct Soviet Union, and it was the former Soviet Union that unveiled this 'beautiful' planet.
The fact is that it is not beautiful, but extremely 'ugly'.
If a human detector wants to enter Venus, it will suffer the following tests, such as:
Sulfur dioxide, 350km/h hurricane, sulfuric acid fog, etc.
Even if it can finally successfully land on the surface of Venus, the man-made detector will need to withstand 92 standard atmospheric pressure and an average high temperature environment of 480°.
The detector that worked the longest only lasted more than a hundred minutes.
If an astronaut wearing an ordinary spacesuit stood on the surface of Venus, he would be crushed instantly, let alone immigration and mining.
Therefore, when Umbrella started space colonization, the first thing to exclude was Venus, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive without obtaining actual benefits.
Except for the original detectors orbiting Venus, Umbrella Space Department, NASA, ESA and other organizations have not launched any spacecraft to Venus. It is not worth it.
But now there are abnormal phenomena on Venus, which means that it has extremely strong resistance to pressure and heat, at least Euclid, and maybe even Keter.
Then he operated his mobile phone, turned off the holographic image of Venus, switched to the figure of Serena and ordered:
"Serena, Fleet Zero continue to monitor the abnormal area. The doctor and I will take the Phantom and rush to Space Sector where you are."
"Yes." Serena saluted William and then cut off the communication.
Immediately afterwards, Halsey also said to William, "I'll go upstairs and talk to 'Children."
"Well, go ahead." William nodded.
After the Sui Dynasty, Halsey walked quickly to the third floor, as if to tell Ivan and Yelena to go to school and rest well.
William also put on his leather shoes and left the villa to go to the manor. He ordered John and others who stayed at the manor to prepare their cars and prepare to go to Troy on the outskirts of Hafa.
Since William and Halsey temporarily returned home to settle down, the Phantom has been parked above Troy, which can be regarded as a unique 'landscape'.
Time: September 3, 2018.
Location: Space Sector near Venus.
Fleet Zero, a total of twenty battleships of various sizes, is anchored near Venus, 0.25 ETM away, in a formation with the flagship Infinity as the center.
Inside the bridge of the Infinity.
Serena, who is equipped with a prosthetic body, is sitting in the captain's position, his pupils emitting a faint blue light, handling various affairs of the fleet.
Next to Central Control Console in the center of the bridge is Halsey, who has changed into a lab coat. She is watching the screen and studying something.
As for William, who was wearing military uniform, he was standing behind the giant porthole with his hands behind his back, slightly lowering his head, looking at the 'Venus' not far away.
The location of the fleet at this time is the back of Venus, which is an area where direct sunlight cannot shine.
There is a joke-like fact that a day on Venus is longer than a year because the rotation of Venus is slower than the revolution.
The area where the abnormal phenomenon is now is located on the dark side behind Venus, and no useful information can be observed with the naked eye.
Seeing this, William frowned slightly and turned around to walk towards Central Control Console.
Before William could ask a question, Halsey raised his head and said to him in a deep voice, "William, it is impossible to detect abnormal phenomena in space.
Moreover, the clouds in Venus are really too thick. Only by sending reconnaissance troops to take photos at close range can we know the true nature of the abnormal phenomenon."
"..."
Hearing this, William did not respond immediately.
Because the area where the abnormal phenomenon is located is subject to some kind of signal shielding, once the reconnaissance aircraft enters the area, it will instantly lose contact and support from the fleet.
Coupled with the harsh environment of Venus and the unknown of abnormal phenomena, this investigation is an extremely dangerous mission.
"Besides dispatching troops, is there no other option?" William tried to ask.
Halsey looked helpless, shook his head and said, "No, I have tried various methods to explore, but there has been no response.
As long as the drone enters an area affected by anomalies, it will immediately lose its signal, and only real people can obtain useful information.
I am instructing the shipboard engineers to modify a Pelican as soon as possible to withstand the harsh environment of Venus."
"This..." William's eyebrows tightened again, and finally he could only let out a sigh of relief and nodded:
"Okay, I'll go select the right people to form a reconnaissance force. As for the Pelican, I'll leave it to you."
"Well, don't worry."
"Okay."
After the two had a brief conversation, William turned and walked outside the bridge to select the soldiers for this reconnaissance mission.
A few hours later.
In the third area hangar of the Infinity.
Ground crews are busy repairing and preparing various carrier-based aircraft, and Marine Corps wearing CMC Power Armor is patrolling here.
A specially modified Pelican is parked in front of the gate of a decompression chamber, undergoing final inspection by engineers.
This Pelican is not much different from the ordinary one in appearance, but it looks more "bloated".
Through the opened tail hatch, you can see that the cabin that originally carried soldiers has been equipped with many large-scale detection and technical equipment.
Not far from the tail hatch, two USSs wearing Biochemical Power Armor were also undergoing debugging and inspection by technicians.
William stood in front of the two USSs, saluted them with a standard military salute, and said in a deep voice:
"Both of you, since the abnormal phenomenon can block pattern detection and communication signals, we can only send you into Venus to find out."
The two of them also raised their hands and saluted. "Yes, boss."
The USS, with the rank of captain, put down his hand and said quietly and confidently:
"Boss, according to the data provided by the doctor (Halsey), the model shielding strength of this abnormal phenomenon is far inferior to that of Egypt.
Just go to Venus to take a look and come back. This is really simple for us USS."
"Haha." Seeing the captain talking and laughing freely, William couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile:
"It's good to be confident, and you two are the first humans to enter the atmosphere of Venus in history."
