Alien Knights

That night, Clemens returned home, and after his daughter Alice went to bed, he entered the study and began research.

After carefully reading the Russian geographer's letter about the Black Tower, Clemens finally focused on these points.

Time, place and purpose.

The first is time. According to the accounts of the Antarctic scientific expedition team and Russian geographers, the earthquakes caused by the two black towers occurred three days ago.

Judging from the time point, the two black towers appeared almost at the same time. Does this mean that their appearance was not a separate accidental event, but was triggered by a special force.

So, that is to say, if there is a third or even fourth black tower, they should also cause similar earthquakes at the same time.

Clemens opened the World-Wide Standardized Seismographic Network (WWSSN) and began to search for earthquake reports from around the world three days ago.

By comparing magnitudes, sources, and descriptions, Clemens found that there were only a handful of qualifying earthquake reports, about a half-dozen.

After further investigation, the suspicious points were reduced to three.

Using these three suspicious points as search keywords, Clemens began to search for all relevant resources on the Internet.

Finally, he searched for a video on YOUTUBE called "The Giant Tower in the Sea".

Clemens looked through the video data and found that there were only a few viewers, and most of the comments were questioning.

Open the video. The video was shot two days ago. The uploader was a fisherman on Okinawa Island, Japan.

The video records that the fisherman went out to fish and saw a strange thing on the sea on his way back.

That thing is like a black monument built in the middle of the sea. Only ten meters are exposed on the sea surface, and most of it is hidden under the sea surface.

The video wasn't high-definition, and the camera kept shaking. Clemens could only make out what was inside by pausing and sharpening the video.

After repeatedly verifying the authenticity, Clemens finally confirmed that the giant tower captured in this video was the mysterious building that appeared in Antarctica and Russia.

Clemens then broke down the video frame by frame, capturing footage of the fishermen's watches and the position of the sun.

Using the time displayed on his watch and the general position of the sun in the sky, Clemens roughly determined the location where the video was shot.

Northeast of the Mariana Islands, west of Alamagan Island, and south of Iwo Jima.

Clemens opened the sea floor map and found that it happened to be the northern extension of the Mariana Trench.

After confirming the third black tower, Clemens began to continue searching online, hoping to find a fourth, or even a fifth.

After a long period of time, Clemens finally confirmed that based on the earthquake observation three days ago, there are currently only these three black towers in the world.

So, here comes the second question, why do these three black towers appear in these locations? Is it a random coincidence or is there another mystery?

Clemens found a paper map of the world and used a pencil to draw circles at three locations: the Northern Mariana Trench, the Antarctic Peninsula and Kusmansk.

Due to their remote locations in the Northern Mariana Trench and the Antarctic Peninsula, it is not difficult to understand why the black tower has not been discovered for a long time.

But the third giant black tower, located in the Kola Super Deep Borehole in Kusmansk Oblast, Russia, is a bit interesting.

The Kola Super Deep Well was a scientific drilling project started by the former Soviet Union in the Kola Peninsula near the Norwegian border in 1970. The deepest borehole, SG-3, reached 12,263 meters in 1989. In terms of vertical depth, this Boreholes remain the deepest man-made creations that reach the deepest parts of the Earth today.

The Kola drilling hole was completely suspended in 1992. The official reason was not given. The drilled hole is closed by a 12-ton steel gate, and no vehicles, pedestrians, or aircraft are allowed to enter within 20 kilometers of the surrounding area.

Clemens searched the Internet and found numerous rumors about Cora drilling holes.

Some people say that it is the passage to hell, and even a recording of the "voice of hell" from the underground can be found.

Some people say that there is a huge gold mine deep underground. As long as you can collect it, you can gain endless wealth.

Clemens looked at the photo of the Black Tower sent by the Russian geographer and guessed that if the former Soviet Union had discovered the existence of the Black Tower in 1970, then their behavior of setting up ultra-deep drilling would be reasonable.

But why did they stop work when they only dug to 12,263 meters?

Moreover, after the drilling was abandoned, the entrance of the hole was specially sealed with a 12-ton steel gate, and a restricted area was even set up within a radius of 20 kilometers.

For an abandoned drill hole, all these actions are extremely strange.

Clemens raised the map again, looked at the three locations he marked, and murmured to himself: "What is the connection between these locations?"

After looking at it for a long time, still unable to find a reasonable explanation, Clemens put down the map and began to think about the last point of concern - purpose.

What are these giant black towers used for?

The material they are made of is neither metal nor carbon, and they are obviously not man-made.

Ancient civilization?

Alien technology?

The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt. Clemens leaned back in his chair, looked at the ceiling, and let out a long sigh.

"dad……"

Hearing Alice's voice, Clemens stood up suddenly.

Looking back, he saw his daughter holding a rabbit doll standing timidly at the door of the study, with a look of fear on her face.

Clemens hurriedly took his daughter to the study, squatted in front of her and asked, "Have you had another nightmare?"

Alice nodded.

Clemens carried Alice onto a chair and asked, "Don't be afraid, tell me, what is this nightmare?"

"I dreamed that there was heavy black rain in the sky, there was fire everywhere on the ground, and many people were crying..."

Clemens held Alice in his arms and comforted softly: "It's okay, it was just a dream."

Alice nodded, raised the rabbit doll above her head, and said to Clemens: "I'm not afraid, I have Count Rabbit with me."

"Count Rabbit?"

When Clemens looked at the rabbit doll Liz bought, his heart warmed, and a smile appeared on his lips unconsciously.

"I saw you put a heart-shaped sticker on the chest of the bunny doll. What is it for?"

Hearing her father's question, Alice smiled and pointed to the heart-shaped sticker on the rabbit's chest and said: "I put a heart on Count Rabbit, so that he will come back to life, and he can talk to me and stay with me." walk."

Clemens smiled and said: "It's really interesting that you installed a heart on it... a heart?"

heart?

The smile gradually faded from Clemens' face, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.

Quickly finding the marked world map, Clemens used a pencil to connect the locations of the three giant black towers.

A nearly standard inverted equilateral triangle appeared on the map.

Then Clemens corrected the gravity line according to the curvature of the earth and the longitude and latitude deflection, and found an absolute center point in this inverted equilateral triangle.

This center point is located in Lincoln County, southern Nevada, about one hundred kilometers northwest of downtown Las Vegas.

Clemens looked at this position and gasped.

He knew that place all too well; in other words, every American knew it.

Groom Lake Military Zone, commonly known as Area 51.
