The violence of the "Pippi Shrimp" is undeniable. Under the action of a powerful hydraulic system, the two mechanical arms can suddenly pop up in 0.1 seconds. The force of the stinging hammer reaches 700 kilograms, which is equivalent to the full strength of three heavyweight boxing champions.
The sum of one blow.
There was a muffled "thud" sound, and the "coelacanth" was hit on the tail, and the fish scales flew away in a flash. Professor Levins shook his head and sighed: "In this environment, it means that it is injured.
Will die."
"It's the same for us." Ling Hao said calmly from the side. He was not interested in the compassion of these scientists at all. He even felt that it was a bit pedantic and hypocritical. He really let them risk their lives to fight this fish.
If so, would the old man be willing? Even if he was willing, he wouldn't be willing yet.
The submarine is still rising slowly along the cave wall. What's amazing is that something on the cave wall is emitting a faint blue light, and there are more and more of them, illuminating the surrounding seawater as if it is covered with a layer of hazy moonlight.
of.
In addition to these luminous things, there is also a long seaweed growing on the cave wall, which is somewhat similar in shape to kelp, but is as dark as linoleum. Groups of small fish, shrimps and squids are growing here.
Weaving among the seaweed.
The professor and Adeline used a camera one at a time and kept taking pictures. The professor said: "The thing that is glowing should be either some kind of mineral or a luminous algae of the 'dinoflagellate' type. Don't look at it, it's just a little bit."
The light source is the light of life in this deep seabed, which allows these seaweeds and small fish and shrimps to survive. You see, these seaweeds, because they cannot absorb sunlight and have no chlorophyll, are completely dark.
Color, they must be at the bottom of the food chain in this water area. They feed the small fish and shrimp, and then the small fish and shrimp feed the bigger fish. This is a complete ecosystem that has been independent for 80 million years.
The outside world evolves and develops alone. This is a veritable 'lost world' and a 'time capsule'." Professor Levins became more and more excited as he spoke.
However, Ling Hao and Tian Yong's eyes were fixed on the moving figures gliding through the darkness in the distance. In terms of size, none of them was smaller than an adult man.
"Pipi Shrimp" began to use its spare robotic arm to collect samples of luminous substances on seaweed and stone walls. Even some small fish and shrimps were caught with a dip net and put into aquariums for temporary cultivation.
Adeline seemed to notice the strangeness in Ling Hao's expression, and followed his gaze into the distance: "Are we being monitored by large fish?"
"Perhaps they were regarded as prey. It is probably because they have never seen our type of creatures before, so they didn't dare to get close for a while. However, as more and more of them gathered, they would eventually be unable to help but rush forward.
After you collect the samples, we will continue to float up, perhaps changing the water layer, and these big fish will no longer surround us," Ling Hao said.
The "Pipi Shrimp" soon began to continue to float. According to the instrument display, their water depth was now less than 300 meters. Whenever they saw new species along the way, they would stop and capture them as samples.
Stopped, just enough to decompress simultaneously.
The higher you go up, the more luminous substances are on the rock wall, the seaweed plants become more luxuriant, and the varieties begin to diversify, but without exception they are all completely black, as if they have been carbonized.
What was supposed to come would eventually come. "Gongsame" was the boldest and most curious, and finally couldn't help but start to approach the submarine.
Five sharks nearly two meters long began to swim around the "Pippi Shrimp" and took a bite at the bright lights from time to time. Yang Xueting ignored them. Anyway, the bright lights were protected by lampshades, so their mouths were capable of biting.
Not bad, but it gave the two professors a chance to take a close-up. The two were so excited that they giggled, leaving Ling Hao and the others speechless.
Suddenly, the warning light in the submarine came on, and Yang Xueting immediately stopped floating and carefully checked the instruments.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Yang Xueting.
The latter said with an inexplicable look on his face: "The alarm system showed that the components of t*nt and hexanitrodiphenylamine were detected in the water, so we called the police."
Ling Hao and Tian Yong were stunned for a moment before they realized: "This ingredient is the explosive in the mine. How can there be mines in a place like this?!" Ling Hao's hair stood up. Fortunately, "Pippi Shrimp"
During the upgrade, in order to better understand the composition of seawater outside the submarine and increase the safety of divers leaving the cabin, a real-time monitoring system for seawater composition was installed to provide alarms for dangerous components of seawater around the submarine.
The sensor is installed on the top of the submarine, and the leakage of the smallest component in the mine is detected. It can be seen how close the submarine is to the mine. At this moment, Ling Hao has no time to think about how this thing got here. He finally
What I care about is where this thing is now.
He put on the diving mask without hesitation and planned to go out to check. Tian Yong also put on the mask and got out of the submarine with him.
As soon as they got out of the submarine, they almost peeed in fear. Less than two feet above the "Pippi Shrimp", a black sphere with a diameter of nearly one meter was quietly suspended there. Ten sticks protruded from the sphere.
Several "contact fuses" are clearly visible, making it look like a large "meteor hammer". Because it has been in the water for too long, it is covered with corals, barnacles and other attachments. God knows what.
Where did this thing drift here from?
"Damn, luckily it's a trigger-type 'floating thunder'. If it had been any other type, we would have been totally fucked." Tian Yong was so frightened that he began to curse.
Ling Hao said to the communicator: "Xue Ting, there is a trigger-type 'drift mine' from World War II less than 1 meter directly above the submarine. Listen to me, slowly descend 5 meters, and you must be slow.
I'm afraid that if the blisters get bigger, it will cause serious trouble, so you can move 5 meters to the left and then stop and wait for us."
Then he looked at Tian Yong and said, "I can't tell. For safety's sake, let's take a look around to see if there is a second one."
The "Pippi Shrimp" cautiously began to dive. Yang Xueting's bangs were wet with cold sweat, and the locks of hair stuck to her forehead. The hand holding the joystick was trembling. She turned white fiercely.
He glanced at the professor on the side and said something from between his teeth: "Professor Levins, you were only a few dozen centimeters away from meeting Darwin. Maybe meeting him is a big deal for you."
It’s a very happy thing, but we died unjustly.”
The old professor was almost scared out of his mind at this moment: "I...how did I know there would be such a thing as a mine here? I..."
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. Let's avoid this mine quickly and go pick up Ling Hao and the others." Adeline advised.
At this moment, Ling Hao and Tian Yong were patrolling the left front of the mine with their APS underwater assault rifles. Although they did not find any more mines, they were surrounded by a large group of "gongxiao".
"Be careful, don't hit the mines and the 'Pipi Shrimp'." Ling Hao ordered, and the two began to fire on the "Gongshark". The shooting sound of "ta da da da" kept ringing, and in a moment, five or six people
A "gongshark" died.
Perhaps due to the harsh living environment, these ancient sharks are extremely bloodthirsty. Their killed companions were immediately swarmed up to bite and eat them. Some of them were not even dead yet, and their stomachs were torn to pieces in a short time.
Just gnawed until nothing was left.
"Hurry! The 'Pipi Shrimp' has already arrived. While these 'gongshao' are killing each other, let's go in quickly!" Tian Yong grabbed Ling Hao, and the two of them got into the "Pipi Shrimp" as if they were running away.
", the submarine began to slowly continue to surface.
"Point the top camera upwards. This time we have to pay attention to the top." Ling Hao took off his diving mask and gasped.
The atmosphere was no longer as relaxed and comfortable as before. The mine left a serious psychological shadow on everyone. Now it was more like walking through a minefield, and the air was so tense that it seemed to freeze.
At the bottom of the 400-meter-deep cave, the students have cleared a large area. Apart from being far away from the torpedo, they have not encountered any danger. Everyone's vigilance has gradually relaxed. Some students have even
I thought the "safe house" was in the way, so I didn't bother to use it when I moved frequently, and was directly exposed to the blue.
A student was kneeling on the seabed, using a small shovel to gently scrape up the surface sediment. The remains of half a meter-long "Sword Shooting Fish" had been exposed in front of him. He had not yet realized that a huge
The black shadow has appeared in the darkness not far away.
A scream sounded in the communicator, and everyone trembled in their hearts and stopped what they were doing. Shi Si suddenly turned on all the bright lights on the Stone Crab, and saw a huge shark nearly four meters long.
There was a man in the mouth and he was shaking his head. The man's upper body was already in the shark's mouth, and the back half of his body was still exposed. He was still kicking and struggling. The shark bit hard and there was a "click" sound.
It became two halves, and the lower limbs fell on the sea bed and kept shaking. The blood spread quickly like ink poured into the water. The scene was very bloody.
Shi Si spat out the lollipop in his mouth and shouted into the communicator: "Come back, hurry up!"
The students who had all been frightened finally came to their senses and swam desperately to the "Stone Crab". Those students who stayed in the "safe house" did not know whether they were reluctant to part with this "artifact" or
Feeling safer inside, they actually lifted it up from the inside and walked back from the seabed step by step. It was not that they didn’t want to run, the seawater resistance on the seabed was too great, and although this "safe house" was made of carbon
Made of plain fiber, it was relatively lighter, but it weighed at least eighty or ninety kilograms, so they fell far behind everyone.
After the shark ate the student's body in two bites, it rushed straight towards the "safe house". Shi Si shouted into the communicator: "Pete! Why are you so stunned? Driving the 'Softfoot Shrimp'
Hit it!"
Pete, who had been driving the "Softfoot Shrimp" outside and used a robotic arm to carry things, happened to be between the student who had the accident and other students. The horrifying scene just now happened in front of him. At this moment, he was so scared that he lost his mind.
The soft-footed shrimp, not to mention crashing into it with a mini-submarine, was lucky that he didn't urinate directly in the submarine.
"Coward!" At this time, Zuo Pengfei had already put on a diving mask, picked up a pair of APS and left the cabin. He did not dare to bet the lives of these young people on Yuan Bing's "safe house".
However, the "safe house" was useless if it was not put to use. The shark swung its tail a few times and caught up with the three people running at the back. It carried the three people in the "safe house" and bit it with its big mouth.
A miraculous scene happened. The shark hit the "safe house" with huge momentum, causing the three people to get rid of it immediately. The "safe house" hit the sea bed, splashing a piece of sand, and was deeply dented like a trampoline.
Go down, wait until the shark's momentum is exhausted, and then bounce it out. Although the three students inside were half frightened and all fell to the sea bed, they were dominated by a strong desire to survive.
He quickly climbed up and continued to pick up the "safe house" and ran back.
The shark was not stubborn. Seeing that it could not handle this prey, it shifted its target to other people who had almost swam to the side of the "Stone Crab". It flicked its thick tail twice, like an arrow leaving the string.
He rushed forward, opened his bloody mouth, and protruded sharp teeth like razor blades. He saw that he was less than 3 meters away from a student.
Is another living life about to be torn to pieces? Shi Si closed his eyes and no longer dared to look.
