"Come quickly! There's something new!!"

…

This sound was extremely abrupt and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The camera team following the team immediately adjusted their lenses.

"What did you find?"

The three team leaders hurriedly ended their conversation and walked over, as did the rest of the people next to them.

The person who made the sound was a researcher about thirty years old. He was standing by the river at the moment, looking very excited, waving the things in the sealed bag in his hand:

"This! I found it on the river bed... look!"

And as a few people came closer and saw clearly the rusty metal creation contained in the transparent bag, the expressions of everyone present changed!

It was a piece of metal the size of a knuckle.

There are obvious traces of corrosion on the surface.

The most important thing is that the shape of this thing is definitely not formed by nature.

There are very obvious traces of processing!

A piece of processed metal!

"Give me the tweezers!" Academician Zhou said seriously, then put on gloves and clumsily used the tweezers to pick out the metal object.

Looking carefully with the help of sunlight, the expression on his face became more solemn.

"Bullet?" Suddenly, the geologist said.

There, no one spoke.

In fact, even if it is severely rusted, the appearance of this thing still reminds people of a metal bullet casing.

"Give me the grinding tools." Academician Zhou said again.

On the side, someone quickly brought a piece of sandpaper. Soon, everyone gathered on a nearby stone and began to polish it carefully.

The movement was very thin and slow, and as the rust was worn away bit by bit, the bullet buried in the soil gradually glowed with a metallic luminescence.

In fact, probably because it was washed into the river not too long ago, you can even vaguely see something that looks like a number imprinted on it.

For a moment, the entire scene fell into silence.

People looked at each other. After a moment, Professor Sun suddenly looked at the young researcher: "Where was it found?"

"It's on this river bed. It should have been washed down from the upper reaches."

"...dig around and see if there are any others."

After a brief exchange, the entire team suddenly dispersed, immediately obtained excavation tools, and began digging along the river beach.

Considering that the "bullet" might have rushed down from the upper reaches, they did not expect much from this hasty excavation.

However, when the excavation work started and the soft soil was lifted up, it didn't take long for everyone to hear the sound of metal collision.

"There's something in the dirt!"

"Stone?"

"No, it seems to be metal!"

Amid the conversation, a young researcher put down his tools, knelt down next to the mud, pulled out a long and slender thing with his hands, and tried to wash it with water.

As the mud was washed away, the rusty metal object was revealed to the public again, and only a commotion was heard.

At this moment, the suspicions in their hearts were finally confirmed.

"This is...a firearm?!"

I don’t know who blurted it out.

On the side, the accompanying officer escorting these people also came over to confirm: "It does resemble the structure of a firearm."

What was dug out of the soil was a heavily rusted rifle!

The wooden part has long since disappeared, leaving only the barrel and other structures.

If the "bullet" was just a suspicion, then no one could remain calm when such a firearm, which was obviously an industrial creation, appeared.

"Was it originally buried in the Tucker Desert? Or..."

One person spoke, but did not continue for the rest of the sentence, but everyone understood what he wanted to say.

It would be okay if this was buried in the Tucker Desert itself, but if not...

"Could it be that... a long time has really passed on this land? It has even developed an industrial civilization?"

The geologist murmured in a low voice, obviously greatly shocked and stimulated.

After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly shouted slightly out of control:

"Dig! Keep digging! Follow the stream, up!"

On the side, Academician Zhou also suppressed the shocking conjecture in his heart and said to the person in charge of communications:

"Send this news back immediately and apply to send some archaeological scholars over! We... need support here!"

…

…

"Did you really find it?"

In Lishan's study, Lin Tuo said softly with a smile on his lips.

When the live scene appeared on the live broadcast room screen, the whole room almost exploded.

In the discussion area next to it, thousands of comments pop up every second, so much so that the area freezes.

"What did I see?"

"Why didn't the reporter say anything? Move the camera closer!!"

"I'm blind. Why do the things they dug out of the ground look like gun barrels?"

"What's going on in the black box?"

“It feels like there’s big news again!”

Because the camera deliberately did not get too close, the specific content of the conversation was not recorded, and the reporter did not speak rashly.

But even these few scenes are enough to evoke countless associations.

As the people in the picture dig deeper, more objects are dug out.

Not only guns and bullets, but also some strange things. Gradually, people also discovered that their judgment may have been wrong.

The bullet did not seem to have been washed from upstream, but the area itself was a "ruin". It was only discovered because it was close to the water source and the soil layer was thinned by the water flow.

And as the skeleton of a car was unearthed, the entire live broadcast room was detonated again.

Lin Tuo yawned:

"It seems like nothing unexpected happened."

Originally, he watched the live broadcast just to avoid any accidents. But now it seems that apart from the fact that the ruins were discovered earlier than he expected, there are no other problems.

I looked at the time and saw that it was almost evening.

After casually glancing at the sand table, Lin Tuo was about to turn off the live broadcast.

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed and he said softly: "Huh?"

In the sand table, in front of the team, a group of wild beasts were quietly approaching, seemingly eyeing these uninvited guests.

Lin Tuo leaned down and counted them. There were quite a few.

"Do you want to intervene?"

Comparing the strength of both sides, these beasts are naturally no match for thermal weapons, but they are numerous and occupy a favorable location. If they are not dealt with properly, they are prone to damage.

"Well, let me give you a little warning."

After a brief hesitation, Lin Tuo raised his right hand lightly and gently dropped it into the sand table.

A finger gently landed on a mountain in the center of both sides.

…

Inside the oasis.

On the ground, the excavation work is still in full swing, even though the sun has set in the west, it has not stopped.

In mid-air, the helicopter was still patrolling the surrounding area.

Suddenly, an observer finally captured the approaching black shadow in the distance.

"Ground, be aware that there are a large number of unknown creatures approaching from the southwest!"
