    Chapter 270 Catching the ¡®Dragon¡¯ (Part 2)

    An hour later, Robin ignored everyone's objections and resolutely took Zoro, Leona, Li and several communication personnel and prospectors deep into the abyss, intending to use this most primitive man-made tracking method to find the secrets hidden underground.  The Insat, and the legions of creatures they feed.

    Compared with searches that rely solely on technological means, the original search method of human tracking like Zoro has too much uncertainty. The success depends entirely on the tracker's own experience, and the search area is also relatively small.  After all, the range that a search team of just a dozen people can radiate is absolutely impossible to complete a large-area search mission in a short period of time like satellite detection or sonar equipment.  However, although human tracking has various disadvantages, it is not completely without advantages compared to purely technological searches.

    First of all, the exploration team as a team has strong secrecy, and this is precisely the main reason for the low success rate of technological search.  Moreover, when conducting field searches in person, experienced field tracking experts can completely detect enemy traces through some very subtle and difficult-to-find traces.  This is also something that technological searches cannot do. After all, in large-scale sonar detection, explorers can only get results through sonar feedback information. Therefore, unless the target is directly discovered, it will not be possible to detect the target when a biological action occurs.  Clues such as scratches on the ground, excrement, and subtle man-made damage to the external environment may all be ignored.  These clues are important information that guides humans to directly discover the target.

    It is precisely because of the above reasons that Robin agreed without hesitation when Zoro proposed man-made exploration.

    Robin is also well aware of the reasons for everyone's opposition.  After all, the combat effectiveness of the exploration team as a team is too weak, and the exploration area may go directly into the core of the enemy-occupied area.  From the standpoint of a subject of the empire, it is simply not acceptable for the emperor to go to such a dangerous situation in person.  However, if you want the weak combat unit of the squad to have a certain level of extreme combat effectiveness and be able to escape unscathed from the dangerous combat environment deep into the core of the enemy's battle zone, you must have a strong saint-level person in the squad.  As of now, the only person who meets this condition is Emperor Robin.

    As a husband and a friend, Robin absolutely cannot accept that he can only watch his imperial concubine, the mother of his children, and his comrades go into danger, while he, who is powerful, can only watch because of the empire.  As the emperor, he stood far away in the safest place.  Therefore, even though his decision was a bit rash, he resolutely rejected everyone's objections and resolutely led this team of only a dozen people along the steep vertical cliffs and deep into the hell-like abyss.

    More than ten minutes later, Robin and his team, equipped with Type 4 heavy infantry armor and carrying a large amount of equipment, gradually entered the bottom of the crack in the earth's crust with a depth of more than 1,700 meters with the help of climbing tools.

    Planet Hayden is not a high-quality planet with a superior ecological environment and flourishing life like the Earth, but it is also definitely not a dead star like Venus and Mercury that is unsuitable for the survival of any living things.  In terms of planetary development, Planet Hayden is currently in the early stages of life development.  Due to the limited conditions of the planet itself, there is no large area of ??ocean on the surface of the planet like the Earth. The thin atmosphere and active crustal changes show that this rocky planet has not yet reached a completely stable state, but in 2 billion years  The accumulation of time has allowed Planet Hayden to begin to have the basic conditions for nurturing life. Among them, the most important point is that Planet Hayden has a huge underground water vein.  Relying on nearly two thousand meters of crustal cracks and dense quartz stone forests, the underground water vein system of the planet Hayden is particularly developed. This allowed Robin to witness with his own eyes the cliffs on both sides of the cliff as he went all the way down.  There are countless densely packed caves like honeycombs.  Some caves even have a large amount of underground water gushing out like waterfalls, which shows that these caves are connected to the underground water vein system, like a spider web, building a huge underground world under the surface of the Kanas Mountains.

    "If you go further down, you will reach the bottom of the valley. The detection data will be fed back. Below us is an underground river with a depth of more than 300 meters."

    When the exploration team¡¯s dive depth reached more than 1,300 meters, the accompanying prospectors informed Robin of this data, saying that there was no need to go deeper.

    "Zolo, what do you think?" Robin turned to look at Zoro. In this regard, he needed to seek the opinion of Zoro, a wild tracking expert.

    "Let's find a cave and go in to have a look. Maybe we can find something."

    In this pitch-black environment, Zolo, who was climbing on the cliff like a gecko, groped his way closer with the help of night vision goggles.A nearby cave.  Robin and the others followed closely behind, and one by one stepped into this strange cave filled with countless fang-shaped stalactites.

    "His!~" Li walked into the cave with a sniper rifle on his back. The hair on his body stood up for no reason. He couldn't help but take a breath and said: "This place really makes my hair stand on end. I have a hunch that we might really be here this time."  What will you find?¡±

    Everyone present is a veteran on the battlefield, and they all have a unique and indescribable sense of danger.  According to current science, it is still unable to explain how this kind of sixth sense-like premonition is formed, but in reality this kind of premonition is particularly important for warriors. In many cases, a subconscious prejudgment can  To save a life, so on a real battlefield, soldiers on the front line of the battlefield often trust their own feelings more than auxiliary equipment such as electronic instruments.

    "Indeed, I feel the same way." Robin took off the assault rifle from his shoulder and skillfully checked all the combat equipment.

    When Robin and Li Ru faced the enemy, the surveyors in their entourage began to take out equipment and set up sonar devices throughout the cave in order to use sonar to detect the depth of the cave and where it leads.  Zoro was like a hunter, carefully observing and groping the stalactites around him, observing every tiny trace, hoping to find something.  Leona took out the biological detection equipment and tested the water samples of the slowly flowing groundwater in the cave. She also took samples and tested the water attached to the surface of the stalactites.

    Suddenly, Zoro stopped in front of a relatively narrow rock wall. After groping carefully for a while, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Robin, there seem to be some traces left by the activities of crustaceans here."

    Robin walked over quickly, and sure enough, he saw several conspicuous scratches on the large raised areas of stalactites below the rock wall. Judging from the depth and roughness of the scratches, they should have been left recently.  Mark of.

    "There are a lot of microorganisms in the water here, thousands of times more than the groundwater sampled before. I think the water should contain body fluids left by a variety of organisms to cause such a result." Leona  A conclusion is drawn from a biologist's perspective.

    "So everyone's answers are the same" An excited look appeared on Robin's face, and he turned back to the explorers who were debugging the sonar equipment and asked: "Have you detected the terrain structure in the cave?  "

    "The current detection progress has reached 17%. The terrain here is very complex, like a maze with countless forks. It may take forty to fifty minutes to completely detect the terrain structure of the entire area.  .¡±

    "We can follow these traces first. They will leave one place and then a second place." Zoro pointed to the sonar equipment that has been set up: "Hide these equipment and arrange them with camouflage  . We can let the sonar equipment continue to explore on its own. As long as we carry the sonar receiving device with us, we can track and receive the latest data at the same time."

    "Butbut then we have to go deep into these caves, just in case we encounter a large-scale Insat biological armored force" A prospector looked at Robin with a pale face.  Now, it is very risky for the emperor to go deep into such an area, so the safest method at present is to stay in this relatively safe place and use sonar equipment to complete the next work.  If we still go deep into this maze-like underground world, we won't even have the final escape route if we are surrounded.

    "Keep the communication open, and if we encounter the enemy, we will call for help immediately. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to seize the opponent. This opportunity must not be missed." Robin made a decision in a flash.

    "Your Majesty, please think twice!~" Several explorers were shocked when asked, and they all knelt down and begged: "Your Majesty, the empire cannot lose you. Please exit the cave immediately and send another search team for the next step of exploration.  .¡±

    "Hmph!~ What the empire needs is an emperor who can lead people to victory, not an emperor who cowardly hides behind and can only wait for failure." Robin walked into the depths of the cave insistently, which made those who had intentions no longer  The prospectors who were persuaded were immediately confused.

    "Immediately send the news to Colonel Mark and Chief of Staff Ans Air, and ask them to send ground troops to reinforce here immediately." A leading exploration expert made an immediate decision.

    "Then let's"

    "The emperor is personally in danger, how can we retreat?" The leading exploration expert gritted his teeth and ordered: "Disguise these equipment immediately, and we must catch up with His Majesty as quickly as possible."
