Chapter 335: The Eve of Exploration
Although Hunter is a general and people here know him, he must undergo strict document inspection and iris scan before entering the glass greenhouse before he can get permission to enter.
From the outside, this building is already very large, but only when you walk into it and look at it, you will find that you can feel more insignificant than what it looks like outside.
"Your Excellency General."
Seeing Hunter come in, the officer waiting next to him hurriedly walked up to him.
"How are the staff prepared?"
Before the meeting was held and the president's order was received, the issue of candidates had been discussed for a long time. As long as you order it, people who have been specially trained over the past few days can come here immediately.
"All three teams are here, and now we are waiting for your order."
"Let Team A go first, the other two teams are waiting for the order."
"yes."
"Let the people from Squad A come first, I'll see them myself."
"Okay, general, I'll make arrangements right away."
The temperature in the glass greenhouse is constant at degrees Celsius, and there are many people coming and going, including soldiers, professors and doctors. A large number of various instruments and temporary laboratories are built inside. There are nearly 500 people serving this project here.
The personnel of Team A were quickly received the order and came to Hunter. The seven members of Team A, standing in front of him, were men and women, all wearing field uniforms. Except for three of them, they looked serious and looked like soldiers, the other four were staring at Hunter himself with different expressions.
Among the seven people, three of them were indeed soldiers, all elite troops selected from the Delta Special Forces. They all had at least five years of military experience, had their hands stained with the enemy's blood, and had carried out many difficult tasks to return safely.
However, of course, it is impossible for the exploration team to be all military soldiers. These three people are just used as security for the team and will not use force when it is not necessary. The remaining four people in the team are the first to be a man with deep eye sockets, as if they are not awake. In the information Hunter said that he is 37 years old this year, divorced once, has three children, and graduated from the Department of Psychology at Stanford University. This is nothing. The problem is that this guy actually joined the army after graduation and finally even joined the Navy SEALs.
If it were just like this, he would not be favored by Hunter. The point is that this guy has always had a good evaluation in the team. As a graduate of the psychology department, he performed well in the Middle East battlefield and solved the battlefield syndrome of many soldiers. He temporarily acted as a psychologist.
This is what Hunter values him. He has both the good qualities of excellent special forces soldiers and strong psychological qualities, which is of great significance to stabilizing a team that goes deep into another world.
Nathan Babs.
Hunter nodded slightly and drew a hook behind his name.
Next to Babs is a young black woman. She is 31 years old and is a biologist who likes to visit around the world. She is not only very good at professional knowledge, but also has the ability to survive in harsh environments. She is also an indispensable professional talent in the exploration team.
Bretz Ollora.
The other two men were geologist Reed Nich and the other was zoologist Betty Clara. All of them received half a month of intensive survival training and task instructions to ensure that everyone did not mess things up without knowing anything.
Just half a month of intensive training is not enough to teach these doctors to know the discipline and requirements of soldiers. Fortunately, they finally knew that there was a federal general in front of them, and they didn't say anything to him waiting for him to speak.
"Everyone, since you have chosen this place, it means that you have signed the relevant top-secret documents and agreed to the requirements put forward by the government. Then I won't say much. I only have a few requirements for you, abide by the regulations, strictly keep confidential, and ensure your own safety. Okay, I will only have these words. Do you have any questions?"
"I have a question, Your Excellency General."
The sudden opening of Babs attracted the attention of the people around him.
"You said." Hunter said calmly.
"Based on the top-secret documents we signed earlier, I saw that in addition to the confidentiality requirement, there is also compensation for this task, right?"
Babs still had the expression of not waking up: "I just want to know, is this true?"
"There is no need for the military to deceive everyone in such a thing."
Heng Te nodded: "After the exploration mission is completed, no matter what the result is, each participant can receive a reward of 500,000 US dollars."
Five hundred thousand US dollars is no longer a small amount. Not to mention that Babs, whose income is only more than 30,000 US dollars this year, even for Nichi and Clara, whose annual income reaches 150,000 US dollars, this is a very considerable amount.
"Are there any questions?" Hunter asked.
"Then there is nothing."
It seems that the reward of more than 500,000 US dollars has finally made Babs' spirit much more excited.
"Okay, if there is no doubt, everyone will go back and rest first. The mission will officially begin at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
After looking at the watch, Hunter gave a time.
Everyone had no doubts and returned the same route to prepare for a rest, waiting for the extremely dangerous exploration mission to start tomorrow morning.
Hunter watched everyone leave, and did not stay here, so he quickly walked out.
No one noticed that on the steel beam of the glass greenhouse, an inconspicuous fly, glittering green, staying motionless over everyone until Hunter left, and slowly took off and left along the ventilation duct.
...
...
27th floor of Albert Biotech Corporate Building, Los Angeles.
"Smack it..."
“It’s incredible…”
Albert stood outside the laboratory window, staring at the subjects who were experimenting internally, with an expression of amazement.
"It seems that the experiment was very successful."
Lu Yuan stood beside Albert with his hands behind his back, with no expression of surprise on his face, as if the success of the experiment was taken for granted.
It's indeed natural.
In the laboratory, the experimenter wearing mechanical prosthetic limbs excitedly opened the mechanical five fingers on the mechanical prosthetic limbs, easily picked up the fruits placed on the table, and picked up smaller and smaller items one by one as instructed. Even the last grain of rice could be grasped by using his index finger and thumb.
"Boss, are you planning to build this as another main product of our company?"
Previously, Lu Yuan gave Albert a lot of biopharmaceutical information, allowing Albert to successfully "compirate" several effective drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. Now it has entered the clinical verification stage. It can be foreseeable that once these drugs pass FDA's review and go public, it will at least bring Albert a market of nearly 100 billion US dollars and a profit of more than 10 billion US dollars to Albert. Their cost is basically insignificant compared to other companies' costs of more than 1 billion US dollars.
The mechanical prosthesis brought by Lu Yuan is technically incredible.
There are six types of prosthetic limbs in the world today. The first is decorative prosthetic limbs, which mainly play a role in making up for the appearance of amputees and maintaining balance. The second is tool hands, which installs various daily necessities to assist amputees. The third type of traction mechanical prosthetic limbs rely on the user's coordinated movements to drive the traction cable to manipulate the prosthetic limbs. The structure is simple and easy to master, and the price is low and is widely used.
The fourth type of prosthesis is an electric prosthesis. It relies on a small electric drive system to complete the predetermined action, which can only basically satisfy the user's own life.
The fifth voice-controlled prosthesis uses human voice language to control signals, and produces many actions, but is easily affected by the environment.
The sixth type of myoelectric prosthesis is an external dynamic prosthesis directly innervated by the brain nerves. The myoelectric signal generated by the contraction of the brain innervated muscles is transmitted to the skin surface, and then the control system interprets and drives the micro motor to generate actions.
