Chapter 4309

"Oh my god, such a big spaceship. Clark's hometown is so powerful?"

On the ice sheet of the Arctic, Diana, wearing a thick scientific research station coat, stood at the door of the spaceship, looking at all this in shock. And standing next to her was that expert.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look," the expert said. "There must be secrets in this spaceship that we don't know."

Diana nodded. She took out the lasso from her waist and held it in her hand. Although the expert had already been in once and confirmed that there were no enemies or weapons inside, she still had to be vigilant.

Walking in along the spaceship's gate, the structure inside was actually very simple, just a passage and a large hall. It's just that there were some things placed around the hall. The purpose of the expert's visit this time was to find clues from this.

Diana looked around, actually not seeing anything special. She didn't dare to touch anything randomly either, so she came to the round platform in the center and stood there watching the expert research.

And the expert's target was something that looked like a culture tank. But this culture tank was empty. Diana couldn't help but ask: "Did the things inside run out?"

"No, what's inside isn't animals, nor plants, but air."

"Air?"

"Exactly, Kryptonian atmosphere," the expert paused for a moment and then said, "For carbon-based organisms, visiting a strange planet is very dangerous. Because the environment on this planet might not be suitable for their survival, and there might also be many unknown and lethal viruses."

Diana suddenly realized, and then said: "I heard that there are ancient viruses sealed in the Arctic glaciers, is this true?"

"Yes and no. This is a bit troublesome to explain. You only need to know that the things that might be hidden in alien atmosphere are a hundred times more dangerous than any ancient virus. So if we want to do space exploration, we must bring our air. Before completing the detection of the atmospheric composition of a certain planet, we can only continue to use Earth's air."

"So that's how it is," Diana nodded, looking like she was humbly learning, and asked again, "This jar contains their air, but such a little bit isn't enough to do anything, right?"

"Indeed, this shouldn't be for use, it's very likely for observation and detection."

"Observation and detection?"

"Yes. After all, the state of a planet is too complex. Certain special radiation produced by celestial bodies might affect the air. We can't let astronauts wear spacesuits as human meat testers. So, there will be a need for a separate sample to observe the state of the necessities for survival in the current star system to confirm whether it is usable."

"Is this that sample? Then can it be used?"

The expert shook his head and said: "It's not certain yet. We have to take this thing back to do a test. At the same time, we also have to study the atmospheric composition on Krypton, so we can reverse-infer whether they can adapt to our atmosphere."

"I hope they can't adapt," Diana said. "Although I feel this possibility is very small, after all, Clark is also alive and kicking."

"This is different. Mr. Kent came here in his infancy, his growth environment is no different from Earthlings, and it is very likely that he has already established the same antibodies as Earthlings in the process of growing up. But this group of invaders doesn't."

"If they don't have antibodies, can we also use viruses to defeat them?" Diana asked.

"Theoretically, it's possible, but we can't take this risk," the expert shook his head and said. "Their internal environment is different. If a certain virus spreads to their bodies, mutates, and spreads back to humans, that would be a disaster leading to mass extinction."

Diana gasped, and then said: "Then forget it."

Immediately after, the expert found another machine, with the machine below and a metal rod above. Diana asked curiously again: "What is this?"

"It should be some kind of detection instrument," the expert said. "Besides air, many other things also need to be detected."

"Food and water?"

"That's not necessary. Just eat what's brought on the spaceship. It's mainly things that can't be avoided during surface exploration, such as air, such as light. This thing looks a bit like a light tester, to be precise, a radiation tester."

"Oh, it's just testing sunlight."

"Exactly. If I'm not mistaken, there will be a large detection device on the spaceship's hull, which will get data as soon as it enters the star system, and this kind of small one should be handheld, for testing surface radiation values when landing on the planet's surface."

"Is there a difference between the two?"

"Of course, after all, the distance from the star is different, and the radiation index is naturally different. If it's for exploring the planet, then naturally, we have to test the surface radiation value. This is an important standard for whether a planet is habitable."

Diana nodded and said: "But this thing is broken, can you restore it?"

"I can try," the expert said. "It might not be able to make it work again, but it should be able to extract the data."

"But they should be using alien characters, can we understand them?"

"Mathematics itself is a language," the expert continued. "It has a universal solution when developed to the end, and it's not difficult to decipher. However, it's limited to mathematics. If we find any historical data, it's estimated that it will take several decades."

Speaking of historical data, Diana thought of that damn "Serpent of Frigne" again. I hope the Arctic can help her get rid of the Pharaoh's curse, otherwise, she will definitely plant that scammer into the Golden Apple Garden.

Just thinking of this, Diana heard a heavy footstep coming from outside. She turned back suddenly and saw several fully armed figures rushing in. They were wearing black armor, wrapped tightly in armor, and the weapons in their hands were clearly not used by humans.

Diana cursed inwardly, immediately took out her weapon, and protected the expert behind her.

"Don't have a conflict with them," the expert said. "We've already got what we wanted. Let's send the things back first."

Diana then reacted. They were here for scientific research, not to rob the spaceship. Since the research samples had been obtained, there was no need to waste time with this group of people.

So, she directly grabbed the expert, flew into the air with a "whoosh," and disappeared in an instant.

Diana looked back and couldn't help but smile. That group of aliens was clearly stunned, seemingly completely not expecting her to fly.

However, she was also afraid that they would have a large force chasing them, so Diana didn't stop all the way, and flew back to the base at the fastest speed with the expert. After putting him down, the expert let out a long breath and said: "Thank you, ma'am. But next time you can be slower, I'm a bit... airsick."

"Sorry," Diana apologized hurriedly, she said, "I was just focused on flying faster. Are you okay?"

The expert dry-heaved twice, waved his hand, and then said: "The problem isn't big. I have to hurry to do tests on those two things, otherwise..."

He didn't continue, but Diana understood what he meant. These aliens had already found their way to the Arctic, which proved that they had already mastered the method of moving freely on Earth. Next, they would definitely take action.

Looking at the expert's back as he left, Diana also felt a bit uneasy in her heart. After thinking for a long time, she decided to call Clark, preferably to let him be prepared, so he wouldn't be attacked without knowing anything.

Diana picked up the satellite phone and dialed Clark's number according to her mobile phone. She said to Clark: "Hello? It's me. Yes, I'm already in the Arctic. The doctor has already been to the spaceship once and found a lot of useful things, but just when we were about to leave, those aliens found their way here."

"I just want to remind you, they seem to have planned to descend to the surface. Since they found their way here, they can't not go find you. You must be careful, they have weapons in their hands. How have you recovered?"

"That's good. You must be careful. The doctor's research should be completed soon, and when there is a result, I will rush back immediately... You're welcome. I am also a part of the Earth, I can't watch them make trouble here. Okay, I'll wait for your news."

Clark hung up the phone and sighed in his heart. Diana was still so reliable. Thinking of the trouble he caused in her house when he was injured, Clark felt deeply guilty. That would definitely bring Diana no small trouble, and might even make her move.

But the more this was the case, the more motivated Clark became. He had to solve this matter quickly, so he could think of a way to compensate for Diana's loss. At least, he had to buy a new computer to compensate her; that was a brand-name computer, which would cost him several months' salary. If the Earth didn't stabilize quickly, how could he work to earn money?

Thinking of this, Clark decided not to sit and wait for death anymore. However, he couldn't be reckless and brute-force it anymore.

It would be simple to have a fight with these aliens, but the problem was that once they fought, it wouldn't just be the aliens who were unlucky, but also the humans on Earth. He himself might also be exposed to the media. Now was not the time to intensify the conflict.

Thinking of the plan Lois had formulated before, Clark immediately had an idea. After thinking about it, he called Lois.

"Lois, you've already arrived in London? That's great, it's safer there. It's like this, I want you to contact the officer you made a deal with. Yes, I have something to find him for."

Three hours later, Clark, wearing his Superman suit, appeared at the military base again, wearing handcuffs, and sitting at the interrogation table.

Clark saw again that the soldier on duty was clearly stunned, because this was his third time in. The other party must be suspecting whether he had fallen into some time loop.

Clark, however, sat there leisurely, thinking about the theme of the next news report in his mind. He also wanted to write a big breaking report, so he could get rid of the editor-in-chief and become an independent reporter, just like Lois.

This could not only allow him to earn more money to compensate Diana and help his mother, but also give him a greater say. Look at Lois, she could negotiate with officers. When he was caught in before, no one was willing to listen to his opinions.

Clark had already discovered that for the military, the threat of super-powered people was completely inferior to that of reporters. Some things really couldn't be solved by super-power—it was time to use super-reporting and super-public opinion.

Just as Clark was thinking about these things, he keenly heard a disturbance coming from outside the military base. He slightly hooked the corners of his mouth; sure enough, they came.
