C935 Is It Really Dawn
Just when Hee Quan and co. were in despair, a strong light suddenly shone towards them. Sensing the light, Hee Quan and the others immediately looked towards the source of the light. With just a glance, they were incomparably shocked and happy. Not far away on the hillside, the crew of Ship 2, who were supposed to have been wiped out, were driving their vehicles in their direction.1
The ship had lost almost everything from hitting the debris. However, the ship had luckily landed on the comet, and the three survivors were on their spacecars heading towards their original destination.
The arrival of the spaceship # 2 meant that there was a new drill bit, which meant that there was still hope for mankind. It was too late to celebrate the survivors' return. Under Hee Quan's lead, everyone started to check the drills on the spaceship. To Hee Quan's disappointment, only three drills on the spaceship were usable, the rest were all damaged.
Three drills were now three hundred and seventy meters deep, so the only way to complete the mission was to rely on Heaven's Will. After replacing the drill bit, Hee Quan immediately started drilling.
"690 meters, the first drill bit is damaged."
"750 meters, the second drill bit is damaged."
"Nine hundred meters …"
They had thought that they had seen a glimmer of hope, but to everyone's surprise, at the last hundred meters, the last drill bit was destroyed as well. There was no longer any possibility, no hope. Everything was over.
Hee Quan did not expect such an outcome. I have thought of all sorts of possibilities of failure, but never did I think of this possibility. The final one hundred meters, is only one hundred meters away! Li Kang was incomparably helpless. He could have completed the mission in just a short time, but he never thought that this would be the result.
"Let everyone load the bombs, maybe there's hope, I will think of a way to contact Earth."
Li Kang began installing the nuclear bomb with his people, while Hee Quan started contacting Earth. Everyone on Earth was waiting for news about Hee Quan and the others. They were the last hope. However, after the signal was picked up and Hee Quan reported the situation, everyone went silent.
"It's all over. If this comet was that strong, we would have suffered a lot more damage. Perhaps Earth …" A researcher in the Earth's command room said in despair.
Be it Earth or the people on the comet, they were both in absolute despair right now. There was no hope for Earth.
"Right now we are loading all the nukes into the hole we made, I hope this one hundred meters gap won't affect us too much." Hee Quan said in despair.
However, everyone was very clear on whether this plan would succeed or not. The original one thousand meters depth was already the minimum. Now that the comet's strength had increased and its depth had decreased, it was really too difficult to succeed.
"After you load the bombs, don't detonate them. I need a person to stay there and manually detonate the bombs to cooperate with me." Mo Feiyu, who had been silent all this time, finally opened his mouth. The joint implementation of the various countries' plans had failed. The only way to save Ling Mengyan and Mo Feiyu was to act.
"You have a way?" Hearing Mo Feiyu's words, Hee Quan was stunned. After all, they were very far away from Earth at this time, so even if Mo Feiyu had some plan, he would be unable to do anything about it.
"It's not hopeless right now. What's missing is only the power of the explosion. As long as it's powerful enough, it should be fine even if it's a hundred meters less, right?" As he said that, Mo Feiyu looked towards the researchers beside him.
