Chapter 74: Exploring the Mysterious Wreckage
"That's what I'm telling you about, we don't have much time. Sooner or later, the glacier where the wreckage was located will continue to melt. We have to hurry up and get to the wreckage of the Hydra. Prepare for the next few days and set off as soon as possible. Fury said as he switched the screen on his tablet to an electronic map of the Arctic Ocean, which marked the latitude and longitude of the site where the wreckage was found.
"I'm getting ready, I'm trying my new body." The current mission is the first time after Fang Leng's transformation.
Fury looked at Fang Leng with his right eye and instructed, "There may be dangerous items in the wreckage of this plane, pay more attention when the time comes." ”
A few days later, on a glacier in the west of Greenland. An icebreaker came to a halt at the target location, followed by a staircase protruding from the left side of the icebreaker for people to walk and carry items. A team descended the stairs of the icebreaker, carrying a lot of equipment.
Personnel are dressed in heavy winter suits, and the ice beneath their feet is far thick enough to support the weight of these personnel.
"This is it." Said one of the people at the front.
A tall, strong figure quickened his pace and walked towards the front. It was Fang Leng. At this time, Fang Leng's body that had undergone transformation was quite burly in the entire team.
When I came to the front, I saw a huge mechanical wreck in a sunken ice and snow. And there is a lot of snow and ice covering many parts of it. There are often snowstorms in the Arctic Ocean, and the wreckage of the plane has more snow and ice than in the previous photos, apparently covered by the blizzards of the past few days.
At this time, Fang Leng had undergone body transformation and had stronger endurance against the cold, but after all, it was freezing here, and Fang Leng was also wrapped in that heavy cold-proof suit.
Glancing at a portable theodolite, Fang Leng said to a probe captain on the side, "That's right, this is it." Johnson, let's get ready to start exploring the wreckage. ”
"Okay." Johnson then instructed the rest of the expedition team to begin setting up their instruments in preparation for the exploration.
Fang Leng looked at the wreckage of the Hydra plane trapped in the ice and snow again. Due to the fact that a lot of snow and ice covered the wreckage, only a part of the plane could be seen. The eroded Hydra skull octopus claw logo can still be seen on the wings.
The wreckage of the plane was indeed very large, and the ice and snow covered mainly the torso, while the broken wings were still largely visible. The fuselage is more than 100 meters long between the wings. There were countless broken parts on the wings, and in some places there was one piece missing. Obviously, the Hydra's aircraft suffered a rather severe impact when it crashed, and its wings were also damaged quite a bit.
Looking at the plane, Fang Leng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Hydra, an evil organization of World War II, was able to build such a large and advanced flying machine. The aircraft has a very streamlined style of shooting, and at first glance the wings are a bit like the B-2 Phantom bomber in service with the U.S. military, but much larger. Behind the wings, there are some fumaroles. At that time, it was possible to build such an avant-garde flying machine, and it can be said that Hydra was really not simple.
Just as Fang Leng was pondering, Johnson's voice interrupted Fang Leng's thoughts.
"Sir, the sonic structure detection equipment has been prepared. The wreckage can be scanned. Johnson, the bearded probe captain, said to Fang Leng.
For example, Black Widow, Coulson, and Fang Leng are all elites in S.H.I.E.L.D., and when they are generally on duty, the grassroots personnel of S.H.I.E.L.D. are all commensurate with their superiors.
Fang Leng waved his hand and said, "Okay, prepare to explore the structure of this wreckage." ”
Then, a piece of equipment that had been put together was driven down the pulley for more than ten meters closer to the wreckage. A 90-centimeter-diameter disc-shaped sonic transmitter was then aimed at the wreckage.
"Calibrated complete, sir!" A member of the team operating the equipment reported after adjusting the detector.
"Let's get started." Fang Leng looked at the monitor behind the device and said.
On the disc-shaped sound wave transmitter aimed at the wreckage, bursts of sound waves were transmitted at a fixed frequency towards the wreckage. This acoustic structure detector can use sound waves to effectively detect the internal structure of the target object.
After 40 seconds, the internal structure of the wreckage being detected began to be displayed on a monitor behind the device. The bearings underneath the disc-shaped acoustic transmitter rotated, probing more parts of the aircraft.
Fang Leng and the rest of the detection team looked at the screen on the monitor, which showed the area where the fuselage of the aircraft was biased towards the middle and rear parts. There is even some congestion in the middle and rear parts of the fuselage.
"Look at the front of the fuselage." Fang Leng said to the operator.
The simulation then shows the front of the fuselage, which is clearly a cab. However, the plane was planted in the ice ahead of its head. The cockpit in front of the fuselage felt a bit of a shock, a lot of things were staggering, but overall it was still in good condition.
"It's still a bit weird about the interior of the fuselage, and I've never seen an airplane designed like this. Wait, let's take a few people to take a look inside the wreckage of this fuselage. Fang Leng said to Johnson and other members of the detection team.
"The plane was tilted forward into the ice, and the only way to get in was from behind." Johnson said with a frown.
Fang Leng looked at the wreckage of this flying machine, leaning forward very much, and if he wanted to enter, he could only make a gap from the back of the fuselage.
The group was busy for a while
Fang Leng took the lead and took the lead in climbing up to the tail of the wreckage of the fuselage. The other four, including Johnson, cautiously followed.
"This snow is not too thick, everyone should pay attention to this fuselage." Fang Leng had just climbed the upper half of the tail. After all, this fuselage is metal, although it left some wear and tear on the fuselage when it crashed, but there are still smooth places that are easy to get into accidents if you are not careful.
Fang Leng has undergone body transformation and strengthening, which is naturally more flexible and stable. Johnson, on the other hand, is a little more careful. After a few minutes, a total of five people climbed onto the tail.
"It's time to go." Fang Leng took out a portable cutter from behind his back, and at the same time put on his eyes. Johnson also took one out and turned on the switch.
With a burst of electric sparks, Fang Leng and Johnson cut a roughly circular incision with a diameter of one meter on the outer shell of the aircraft.
With a "bang", the shell of the plane that had been cut fell into the fuselage. The sound of metal clashing echoed from inside the fuselage.
Looking at the metal hole that had been cut, Fang Leng looked down, there was still a lot of ice and snow in it, obviously pouring in from some broken openings under the fuselage.
Several people fastened a cable to the shell of the fuselage. Fang Leng descended down the cable first.
It was pitch black in the cabin, and Fang Leng swept around with the searchlight in his hand. I saw that the huge cabin was filled with cold and gloomy for a while. Almost all items are covered in snow and ice.
However, the general layout of the cabin can still be seen. The cabin is quite neatly made from the bulkhead to the basic equipment. Dawson and two men came down one after the other. There was a person left outside the cabin to keep the cable in place.
"This is the scientific and technological achievement of those 70 years ago." Looking around with a searchlight, Dawson also sighed.
"Hydra is really not ordinary, let's continue to dig deeper to see what secrets are here."
Fang Leng and Dawson, along with two other members of the probe team, continued to walk towards the depths of the huge cabin with searchlights.
