They seemed to be under a bloody sky. Red and black divided the water area into two extremes. Only then did they escape from the blood-red sky. The red threads still remaining on their bodies were constantly washed by the clean river water.
Looking at this extreme water quality division reminds people of the text "Sun Moon Lake" in the second grade Chinese textbook.
"With their orthodox handwriting and the ultimate in Feng Shui, I don't know what means they used to 'lock' this dragon's blood-polluted water here." Lin Nian raised his head and said, "If this dragon's blood-polluted water is allowed to spread,
Maybe the director team of the next "Han River Monster" will use the Yangtze River to film the film, even the special effects props will be dispensed with."
"It sounds very frugal, but it definitely won't be released in mainland China," Lu Mingfei complained.
"It's only the water area that's locked, wouldn't there be fish infected by dragon's blood that have escaped from the water area?" the captain asked Manstein.
"No, you have underestimated the effect of Dragon King's coercion on fish schools. Haven't you noticed that the sonar has not captured fish schools once since the Beichuan sailed into Kuimen?" said the first mate next to Manstein.
Explained, "Whether it is Feng Shui or too strong dragon's blood, it will scare the fish to avoid these waters. A long time ago, Feng Shui was used to irrigate crops and develop the fishing industry. The ancients would think that Feng Shui masters were
The immortal master sent by the ‘Heaven’ in Chinese mythology.”
"Only things like Deadpool or dangerous hybrids will be attracted to this polluted water. This is why Orthodoxy is committed to clearing the area around Kuimen. This will have a short-term impact on the local tourism industry.
But from a long-term perspective, if this place has a high incidence of murders and violence, it will be very detrimental to future development. The long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain. It is not too late to open this place after the Dragon King is solved."
Manstein said.
"What if the Dragon King cannot be eliminated?" Lu Mingfei asked subconsciously in the communication channel.
"Then there will probably be no scenic spot like Kuimen anymore." Lin Nian said, "Let's continue diving. We don't have as much time as we thought. We have enough oxygen but the 'snake' that maintains communication cannot hold on for a long time.
"
"The Yangtze River Water Conditions Bureau has once again issued a red flood warning. The situation at the Three Gorges Dam is not optimistic and we really don't have much time." said the first mate.
"Sonar has not found any other creatures around you for the time being, and Ye Sheng's 'snake' has not made much movement. You are safe for the time being. It seems that the Dragon King is indeed hiding deep in the Bronze City, speeding up the dive." Manstein
explain.
"It's great that there is no part to fight monsters and upgrade." Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief and continued to dive with all his strength to keep up with Lin Nian in front.
"The corpse guards were probably the biggest obstacle before, but it's a pity that they have been left behind." Manstein said, "After Constantine's death, Norton has been extinct. Now what should he do about recruiting troops?"
He no longer has any interest and only wants to take revenge wholeheartedly."
"Shouldn't the prerequisite for revenge be recruiting troops?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused.
"Dragon kings are proud things. Besides, even Constantine died at the hands of you two. The only capital he has for revenge is himself." Manstein whispered.
Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and then shuddered. He suddenly remembered his previous conversation with Lin Nian. Norton had never regarded anyone except Constantine as a family member. Constantine's death represented
Loneliness will always accompany him, and naturally it is Lin Nian and him who bring him all this despair.
"Lu Mingfei, your heart rate is rising." Manstein's voice sounded in Lu Mingfei's ears.
"Norton probably doesn't know that you were involved." Then Lin Nian's voice suddenly sounded, "Few people know that you shot that bullet, so it was me who killed his whole family. You don't need to be too nervous.
If he discovers us, he will only come to me as soon as possible. You can just surface after planting the bomb, and I will lure him away."
"Yeah" Lu Mingfei said nothing more and continued to dive.
But a strange idea suddenly came to his mind. Maybe the formation of the dive team this time was not just to value the reputation of the 'S' class and the strongest combination in the history of 'S' class, so Lin Nian and him were put together.
together.
After all, as Lin Nian himself said, it might be more efficient for him to dive alone. Although Lu Mingfei showed amazing "sniper talent", it is far from having any effect underwater.
The "capability" of detecting enemy intelligence should have been placed in the rear for protection, rather than being thrown into death squads to plant bombs. This allocation is obviously unreasonable.
But now he seemed to suddenly understand something. If everything Norton was doing now was for revenge, then if he wanted to lure Norton out of the Bronze City, wouldn't he just put the revenge target he was looking forward to day and night in front of him for a while?
Did it arouse his anger?
Ange stared at him and told him that a significant scene in the dive team appeared before his eyes again, but this time the old man's eyes were so calm in his memory that Lu Mingfei felt a little shuddering.
"We're here." Lin Nian stopped at the bottom of the river bed, where the spotlight illuminated a circular black pit.
Lu Mingfei swam over, not even daring to float above the black pit. He could only lower his head at the edge and shine a spotlight into it, but he couldn't see the bottom at all. He could only see the shallow threads on the inner surface of the pit. As you can imagine
This large hole was drilled manually using a drilling machine.
"A remnant of the first Kuimen Project. It used to be a mountain on land. As time went by, the water level rose and the mountain was submerged, forming the current Kuimen. The Bronze City is hidden under the rock formations. Norton hollowed out the mountain inside.
He built his own Baidi City, an alchemy city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack." Lin Nian jumped into the pit first, Lu Mingfei, and Lu Mingfei, who was connected by a safety rope, also jumped in hurriedly, and in Beichuan
His heart rate also skyrocketed on board.
"Sonar can no longer detect the waters you are in, and 'Snake' can only maintain straight-line communication for the time being. You can only explore the next road by yourself," Manstein said.
In the dark pit, Lin Nian listened to the movements in the deep water. After diving to this depth, they were basically unaffected by the storm on the water. They returned to silence, but this silence was more unsettling than the storm.
The range illuminated by the searchlight is extremely limited in the vertical passage. Lu Mingfei can almost hear the sound of his own adrenaline secretion in this darkness. Although he does not know whether there is any movement in the secretion of this thing, he is certain that it is him.
His snake phobia recurred. Now that he was in a dark place, he felt like there was a half-full giant python staring at him in a corner. He was thinking about whether he could eat this hundred pounds as a dessert.
A tooth sacrifice.
"There are scorch marks. Norton used this passage." There were obvious scorch marks on the inner wall of the passage illuminated by the searchlight above Lin Nian's head. You can imagine that after the car overturned an entire fleet, the Dragon King brought the fire to boil the river water all the way.
Image of sinking into the channel.
"Then it is almost certain that he is in the Bronze City." Manstein nodded, "This is good for the plan. The worst-case scenario is that he did not choose to sit still and wait for death but directly set up an empty city trap."
"If Norton is a master alchemist, he can set up traps in the passage. After all, if we want to find him, we will definitely go through this passage. We don't have time to create another passage." The first mate suddenly frowned and said.
"Are you on the side of the Dragon King or on our side?" Lu Mingfei was speechless when he heard the first mate's analysis through the communicator in the captain's room.
"He's right in his analysis. Now we have to think about the problem from the enemy's perspective." Lin Nian shook his head and said, "I don't think it's necessary to set up an ambush in the passage. The enemy who can kill his brother can only be killed by him."
Solve it with his own hands, he should understand this truth."
Lu Mingfei said in his heart that His Highness Norton really looked up to his brother-killing enemy. If it weren't for Lin Nian, the Dragon King would have killed Lu Mingfei just by setting up a landslide trap in this passage.
The tunnel was quickly completed, and the feeling after exiting the tunnel was different from swimming out of the "Red Sea". What Lu Mingfei felt now was a sense of emptiness, a boundless emptiness, as if he had fallen into a starless sky.
In the universe, everything is dark as far as the eye can see, and the sky or the earth cannot be seen. All that fills my heart is a sense of nothingness.
Lin Nian glanced around. His hearing could completely replace sonar in detecting waters within a few hundred meters of water. He did not hear any sound. He could not even hear the sound of water under the completely enclosed rock formation. The only sound was
The only sound was the faint noise of water coming from the other side of the passage when they came.
"Yelena." Lin Nian said in his heart.
"Yes, yes. If I remember correctly, this is the first time you have directly called me by my name on a formal occasion." Behind Lin Nian, the figure of the blond girl appeared from the water bubbles exhaled from the diving suit.
, his hands gently placed on Lin Nian's shoulders, "It seems that you can only think of me in critical moments."
Lin Nian didn't look back. After calling out the blond girl, he just looked straight into the depths of darkness, where was naturally the majestic Bronze City. He was silent for a while and said, "I want to know if Norton is really still in the White House."
In the imperial city."
"I also want to know what the hell is this?" Lu Mingfei turned around to answer Lin Nian, and at the same time, his eyes suddenly widened.
"What's going on? Lu Mingfei, what did you see?" Manstein, the captain of the Beichuan, suddenly stood up straight and asked loudly with a communicator. Behind him, the first mate, Caesar and Shude Aki were all
Instantly tense, the captain's room fell into dead silence, just waiting for the answer from the other end of the communicator.
After a while, Lin Nian's voice sounded on the communication channel.
"It's nothing. He sees the floating algae as an enemy. The alarm is lifted."
Everyone in the captain's room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions were a little strange. Manstein pressed his forehead slightly but said nothing more, "Then continue the mission. Lu Mingfei, please control your emotions a little, and check your heart rate."
It’s dangerous now”
Manstein didn't get an answer from Lu Mingfei, but he didn't pay much attention. Maybe the kid was too embarrassed to say anything after falsely calling the police.
Under the deep water, Lu Mingfei really couldn't say anything now because he could only stare at the blonde girl in white floating behind Lin Nian with his mouth open!
"Huh?"
The blonde girl slowly turned her head to look at Lu Mingfei, twitching her eyebrows slightly, "Can you see me?"
