Changkong Fighter

Chapter 285 Events from a Century Ago

The captain, wearing gloves, picked up the booklet and noticed a rather rudimentary symbol on it. After recording it with the battlefield recorder, he put the booklet away, gestured for the team to spread out and explore the surrounding area to see if anything of value had been preserved.

Outside the battlefield, while gunships provided suppression, loitering munitions deployed to the battlefield began to target and eliminate any remaining rebels.

A loitering munition detected the remaining anti-aircraft artillery system on the ground. The reconnaissance module separated with a bang, and the warhead slammed down towards the anti-aircraft radar, exploding at a low altitude of 10 meters above the radar. Then, a large number of explosively formed warheads rained down on the ground below.

In an instant, the entire radar was shattered by shrapnel, the fragile top of the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun was pierced by shrapnel, and the semi-molten shrapnel hit the vulnerable human body and instantly vaporized. With the crew members killed, the self-propelled gun was rendered useless.

After destroying the self-propelled artillery, the remaining loitering munitions deployed to the battlefield continued patrolling, searching for the next high-value target and eliminating it.

48 hours later, at the Southeast University Command Center
The old leader picked up the document in his hand, opened it to the first page which showed the symbols on the diary, and seemed to understand something as he asked, "These are...marks of extraterrestrial civilization?"

“Yes, Professor Zhou, according to expert analysis, this is also a sign of an extraterrestrial civilization, but a very low-level one,” He Xiaoxi said softly.

The symbols on it were far simpler than Rupa's mark, and compared to the one in Liu Jun's hand, they were like a simple line drawing.

"really."

In the vast universe, it is not easy for extraterrestrial civilizations to accurately open another planet, especially an "Einstein-Rosen bridge" with civilization.

However, if an "Adventure Faction" appears on Earth, then all of this becomes easier to explain. If someone on Earth opens a "location marker" for an extraterrestrial civilization, it would greatly reduce the difficulty of opening a portal.

But unexpectedly, this rebel leader actually had a "diary." Who keeps a diary? We must consider the possibility of "strategic deception."

The old leader slowly opened the scanned document, while the original document was taken away for testing to extract trace substances, fingerprints, notes, and any other possible traces.

[June 30, 1908, Siberia]

[Oh my God! A mysterious explosion happened in the Gus River Forest today! It's so exciting! What kind of impact could cause such a powerful explosion? Tomorrow I'm going with █████ to find out the truth. I'm so excited I can't sleep.]

Although ██ says it's dangerous, the truth lies there, and I have my head!

[Oh my god! What on earth happened? What could possibly have such immense power?!]

[I spotted ████ first; it's so beautiful, like Mary's tears!]

Looking at the first page of the notebook, the old leader suddenly frowned. There were obvious scribbling marks on the diary, and because of its age, the ink had completely seeped into the paper, making it impossible to tell what was written inside.

The Tunguska event?

At that point in time, the University of Tokyo was in a special situation, with little control over the outside world, but judging from the information sent from Russia...

The Tunguska event refers to an explosion that occurred inside Russia, but communication was not advanced at that time, so if someone really wanted to cover up the truth, they could have done so.

"What did the Russians say?" "They said they are doing everything they can to investigate the data."

He Xiaoxi paused here, because in terms of efficiency, the Russians' efficiency was hard to describe. Even at such an important moment, one dared not have any expectations of their efficiency, because these data had to be "archaeologically examined" by Russia.

During the collapse of the Red Empire, who knows how much data was lost? If the rebels had intentionally colluded with them from within, it is very likely that those documents containing important information were destroyed.

Do we have any records on this side?

“Teacher Zhou, according to the investigation of the database, the information we recorded is also very vague.” He Xiaoxi placed a document in front of the leader.

A fireball-shaped celestial body, 50-100 meters in diameter, streaked across the sky from southeast to northwest. Minutes later, a bright light illuminated the entire sky, followed by an explosion with a thunderous roar.

The deafening roar could be heard for miles around. The nearest town, 60 kilometers away, was shattered by the explosion, and its residents could feel the heat of the blast.

Witnesses have reported this phenomenon across a vast area spanning nearly 600 kilometers, from eastern Siberia to the Tunguska River basin.

In the first few days and nights after the explosion, strange celestial phenomena could be seen throughout the Northern Hemisphere, from Bordeaux in France to Tashkent in Central Asia, and from the western coast of the Atlantic Ocean to the Ural Mountains. These phenomena included unusually bright sunsets, white nights, and shimmering clouds. These strange phenomena lasted for several days.

The explosion destroyed 8 million trees across 2150 square kilometers, equivalent to 2 million tons of TNT, or the power of 1000 Hiroshima atomic bombs.

After reviewing the internal records, Teacher Zhou sighed inwardly. However, the "credibility" of these records was questionable. The time period was too special, and it was even possible that the information had been intentionally altered by someone.

Records are such that changing just one word can turn the entire record into something else entirely, and this kind of tampering is the most difficult to detect.

Teacher Zhou looked at the photos in the record, which were taken by a scientific expedition organized by the Soviet Academy of Sciences in 1927.

This is completely different from the previous record, because no impact crater was found in the area, meaning it was not a meteorite impact. However, the bark of trees within a 50-kilometer radius was peeled off, and they all leaned in one direction.

Years later, iridium and nickel were detected, confirming that these elements originated from outside Earth. However, the expedition team drained the water from the target swamp but found nothing. The scientific community generally believes that it was caused by an asteroid impact, but no evidence has been found.

"No, the information inside has definitely been tampered with," Teacher Zhou said after putting down the file.

"Teacher, does that mean the rebels have been established on Earth for 100 years?" He Xiaoxi asked nervously.

One hundred years, five generations—it’s all too clear what will happen after five generations of “history books”—and the rebels are likely to be more deeply hidden than they imagine, especially in the Western world.

The only country that could escape unscathed was the great Eastern nation, because of that man's existence!
"Let extraterrestrial civilizations answer this question for us."

Since the information has been tampered with, let's address the problem at its source.
