In Antarctica, under endless snow and peaks of ice, an enormous city was completely covered by ice and tilted into the depths of the sea. There used to be a prehistoric lake in this place, before the Antarctic continent had frozen, and there had even been birds and flowers!
However, after thousands of years, it had become the coldest area in the world, a place where no one ever set foot in! The whole huge city was completely covered by ice sheets. The temperature was minus 70 degrees most of the year, and it was always as dark as night.
The city was located between Antarctica Ice Dome A and the South Pole. It would take anyone a long time to get here, whether they were coming from China Kunlun Station in Ice Dome A or America Amundsen Scott Station at the South Pole. A journey of such a vast distance was enough to kill most people!
At this moment, a team of scientists from Amundsen Scott Station drove seven or eight snow cars, all equipped with searchlights, to the depths of Antarctica. They took nearly half a month to get to their destination, as the conditions were rough and the snowmobile constantly need repairing.
“Dr. Matt, have we reached our destination yet?” a scientist asked.
The Antarctic continent was in complete darkness, except for the stars in the sky. You could even see the auroras in the cloudless sky, which looked like floating ribbons.
The whole world was quiet. If not for the bone-chilling coldness, the science team would have enjoyed this beautiful scenery very much. Now, they just wanted to go back to warmer weather!
Besides, there was not enough fuel and food, and they only had three operational snow cars left. If something were to go wrong on the way back, the whole team would die here!
However, Dr. Matt, who was an American man in his fifties with gray hair, still looked energetic. He ignored the question and exclaimed excitedly, “Find it! It’s here!”
Dr. Matt pointed to the star map in his hand, then compared it with the stars in sky, saying, “Look, this is where we are on the map! This was actually a prehistoric lake! Before Antarctica was icebound, it had been a huge land lake of 2,000 square kilometers. Its presence was a miracle, but no one knew whether it was a freshwater lake or a saltwater lake.”
Everyone skied down the glacier cliffs of the prehistoric lake to get a closer look. Hours later, they found a huge, abyss-like ice crevice, from which they could enter safely into the frozen prehistoric lake. They then erected brackets and rope baskets and used them to gain access to the inside.
As Dr. Matt hung on one of the ropes, nearly a kilometer below the ice-covered prehistoric lake, he saw the dusty city in the gleam of his flashlight. The group shouted in surprise…
“Here it is, Atlantis!”
“We finally found it! Here it is!”
“There really is a city down here!”
Underneath their feet, half of a metal spire emerged from the ice cap, the top of it glittering like a lighthouse that was summoning ships that were lost in the sea. Matt stuck to the ice and observed the interior scenery.
He then shouted, “Let’s go down and have a look!”
As Matt gradually approached the spire, he found the building’s surface was so smooth, it didn’t even feel like metal. There weren’t even any lines or bulges on it! Several members of the team arrived beside him and also looked at the spire.
Suddenly, someone said, “It’s not like a city, but more like…”
Matt looked at him, then interrupted him suddenly. “A spacecraft! Don’t you think so?”
The team nodded, and everyone felt it was unbelievable. Many of them began asking many questions at once…
“How could it be possible for such a large thing to fly?”
“What kind of fuel could supply such a large spacecraft?”
“Impossible…”
At this time, the spire suddenly shone even brighter, and a strong wave swept across the ice crevice. Then, a burning light glowed out of the spire!
“What’s that?”
“Da*n, this ship has a self-defense system. It found us!”
“It’s really a spacecraft!”
Before they finished oohing and ahhing, lights swept through the ice crevice. Large pieces of blue ice splintered in an instant, and the whole crevice collapsed, while those who were in the crevice were all evaporated by a strong force.
Other group members, who were observing everything from above the ice crevice, were shocked. Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared from the ice crevice and shot directly into the sky!
The ground shook sharply, causing several members of the team to fall to the ground in an instant. Before they knew what was happening, they saw several bionic robots flying out of the ice crevice!
The fierce plasma gun fired suddenly, and the members of the scientific research team who were above the ice, along with their supplies, were completely destroyed! Then, the robots made one loop on the ground before returning inside the ice crevice. They then entered the building from the door at the spire.
Nobody knew what had happened on the Antarctic continent, and the entire team that was led by Dr. Matt would only be documented as a sad example of a failed Antarctic exploration…

“Orion, from Atlantis, an alien civilization?” Lu Zhiyu asked.
“Orion Nebula, to be exact!” a linguist replied.
“Orion Nebula? Would such a place even have a civilization? Are you kidding? It’s impossible that a species could survive on it!” Lu Zhiyu said in disbelief.
“It depends on what civilization it was. There might be some strange species and civilizations,” another linguist said.
Lu Zhiyu looked at the star map and became lost in his own thoughts. Orion was at the center of the map, indicating that the civilization behind this silicon-based life was probably a civilization from the Orion Nebula, which was about 1,500 light years away from the solar system!
Also, the language that they used was identified by two linguists as the language of Atlantis. Even though they had identified it, they could still only recognize some of the words, as it was impossible for them to fully comprehend the whole content!
The information inside the brain of silicon-based life, which was given the codename Cain, was also deciphered by Fabio. This was because they had needed a person who was fluent in the Atlantis language to translate it into information that human beings could actually read.
“Then, who can read this kind of writing?” Lu Zhiyu looked at the two linguists and asked.
One of them said, “Dr. Matt can! But, to be honest, we used to think that this civilization was a legend. Only he believed that it was true and had been looking for it for a long time. We had no idea that it really existed!”
He paused, then smiled and said, “It seems that Matt was right! His discovery will astonish the whole world, as he discovered that Atlantis actually existed on Earth!”
Lu Zhiyu had no interest in the so-called shocking news. He just wanted to find the location of this Atlantic civilization immediately! So, he asked, “Where is Dr. Matt, then?”
Gu Chaoran said to Lu Zhiyu, “Boss, Dr. Matt set up a scientific team a few months ago and entered Antarctica. He has not returned yet!”
Lu Zhiyu nodded. “Then, when you hear from him, contact me immediately!”
Although this last bit of information was a bit troublesome, Lu Zhiyu was still satisfied with today’s progress. Most importantly, besides Cain’s left hand, the Vatican Clan had brought back most parts of his silicon-based life body!
At present, Cain’s whole structure had been carefully analyzed. The research institute could only slowly analyze and imitate some of its core technologies, but Lu Zhiyu could still use them as a reference.
Such a ready-made and powerful mechanical bionic robot, if combined with Lu Zhiyu’s mechanical alchemy, would play a very powerful role in Lu Zhiyu’s future endeavors!
