This cylindrical tube is the water pressure cover prepared for us by the foundation's diving team. Although the appearance looks a bit crude and feels like an enlarged potato chip can, the inside of this water pressure cover is actually made of
Lots of cutting-edge technology.
After entering from the side of the water pressure cover facing us, Harris pressed a switch inside the water pressure cover, and the entrance and exit behind us was immediately sealed.
At the same time, the seawater above our heads began to bubble violently.
Immediately afterwards, something wonderful happened. The seawater that was originally filled with the water pressure cover began to drop rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I asked Mo Xi what the principle was. She told me that it was actually because air began to be injected into the inside of the water pressure cover. The air pressure inside was greater than the outside, so the sea water was squeezed out. She also stepped on her own
Under our feet, there are actually many small holes invisible to the naked eye where we are stepping. It is those small holes that drain out the seawater. However, the water here will not be completely drained, and there will be some seawater residue near the entrance.
, the air pressure in the pipe will be equal to the water pressure outside, so that the water here will not flow out, and the seawater will not pour in.
No matter whether what Mo Xi said was true or not, after a while, there was really only a little water left in the water pressure cover near the outlet, which looked quite magical.
Because the air filled in the hydraulic cover is not oxygen, we still cannot take off the helmet for the time being. But other than that, the environment we are in now is no different from the ground, which is really difficult.
Imagine, because a few seconds ago this place was full of sea water.
After the water receded, White took an electric drill-like device left here by the previous diving team and attached it to a bulge near the hatch.
I remember that when we were at the base, White explained that behind this protrusion should be the switch of the hatch. The function of what White is playing with now is probably a device that can turn on the switch.
Sure enough, after White fiddled with it for a while, a stream of hot air came out of the hatch. Amidst White's warning sound for everyone to step back, the hatch in front of us began to slowly rise.
Seeing that this spaceship, which was suspected of being an alien civilization, was about to reveal its true identity to us, the hatch in front of us actually stopped moving after being raised a dozen centimeters in height.
…
Everyone in the water pressure cover looked at me and I looked at you. They were stunned in front of the hatch for a long time. Then Agent Harris asked: "Everyone, is this hatch open? Is it possible that our alien
Are you a dwarf?"
Jamie, the black man, is the materials expert here. He blinked and said, "I think the door is stuck..."
"Stuck?" Everyone was a little surprised, because it is difficult for us to imagine that the door of an alien spacecraft would be stuck.
White bent down, glanced at the hatch and said, "Could it be that this thing was damaged when it fell into the sea? You know, this is a thousand feet deep after all. In a place like this, anything can be damaged.
Damaged by sea pressure.”
Harris said, "I don't care if something broke it, but how are we going to get in now? Colonel White, we're not dwarfs, and I'm fine with that, but your diving suit obviously won't let you climb in."
."
While they were arguing about what to do next, I learned from Mo Xi the content of their conversation, and then I said to Mo Xi: "Dr. Mo, how about giving it a few kicks?"
"Kick?" Mo Xi was a little confused.
"Just kick it. Haven't any electrical appliances in your house ever broken before? I remember my father told me before that if something like an electrical appliance breaks, just kick it a few times and it will be fine."
Mo Xi rolled her eyes at me and said, "Please, you are talking about electrical appliances, but this is an alien spacecraft."
"Even if it's a spaceship, this is just a door."
I muttered something, and regardless of what Mo Xi said, I walked to the cabin door and kicked it.
Boom!
The sound I made when I kicked the door immediately resounded in the water pressure cover, and everyone else immediately turned their heads to look at me.
Seeing their looks, I pointed to the hatch behind me with some embarrassment and said, "It's okay, I just want to see if I can fix it."
After hearing Mo Xi's translation, Harris, who had always been unfriendly to me, immediately said sarcastically to me: "Can the Chinese still build alien spacecraft? I thought you could only make fireworks."
Mo Xi did not translate Harris's words for me at first. I just looked at this guy's evil smile and guessed that he must not have said anything nice, so I begged Mo Xi to tell me the meaning behind his words.
After listening, I was about to refute, but at this moment the hatch behind me suddenly made a "boom" sound and began to move upward again.
This time, the hatch was really fully opened.
Looking at the cabin-like scene behind the door, I couldn't help laughing, and turned back to Harris and said, "What did you just say?"
Harris snorted: "Maybe something else opened it."
Colonel White ignored the contradiction between the two of us. He held a searchlight in his hand, stood by the door and shined a circle inside, then turned back to us and said: "Since the door is open, let's go in, but I want to
I would like to remind you in advance that it is not possible to determine whether the air pressure inside is normal, so please do not take off your helmet."
"It makes no difference to me, as long as there is air."
As Harris spoke, he passed Colonel White and walked in first. His actions angered Mike for some reason, and the latter suddenly said angrily: "Hey, how could you do this?"
Harris turned his head inexplicably: "What's wrong?"
Mike said solemnly: "The step you took just now is as significant as the human landing on the moon! I should be the one to take such an important moment!"
Harris immediately stepped back, then stretched out his hand and bent down and said: "Then please..."
Although the first wish to enter the spacecraft was shattered, Mike still seemed very excited. At Harris's signal, he actually stood at the door, and then said to us: "Everyone, don't forget that we are for peace.
Come! (Weeinpeace)”
After he finished speaking, Mike immediately burst into laughter. Jamie beside him didn't know why he was so crazy that he imitated him and yelled the same "Weeinpeace!" into the spaceship.
I couldn't understand, so I asked Mo Xi, "Dr. Mo, what's wrong with them?"
Mo Xi replied to me with something I couldn't understand at all: "You don't understand the Star Trek joke."
Confused, I followed the others into the spaceship. After seeing the situation clearly, I honestly felt a sense of loss, because the situation inside was somewhat similar to what Mo Xi had said before. It was obviously a suspected ship.
It's an alien spacecraft, but it's much simpler inside than I imagined.
The interior of the spacecraft is a narrow passage composed of a large number of radiation-proof panels. The passage is intricate and complicated, like a maze, with no end visible at a glance. Inside the passage, we can also see many exposed pipe systems.
There is still steam coming out of the pipe from time to time.
If we want to talk about the first impression, this place is not so much an alien spacecraft as it is the cabin of a Yankee that I have boarded on the sea. The inside is completely the same style and what I imagined the alien spacecraft to be like.
It doesn't look like it at all.
Not only me, but Mike, who is an aerospace technology expert, also noticed it. After walking inside the spacecraft for only a few minutes, he suddenly said: "Everyone, I don't know if it's my imagination. I feel like the work ship here and the sea are not the same."
Am I the only one whose cabins are similar?"
Mike's speech received an immediate response. Basically, except for Colonel White, even Harris felt the same way.
And this is not the only weird thing happening in this spaceship.
When we passed an intersection in the spaceship, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something on the floor of another corridor?
What is that?
On the black metal floor, there were actually... unexpectedly, rows of shoe prints left behind!
Those shoe prints were clearly visible, and I could even distinguish the patterns on the soles. But when I calmed down and compared the patterns with the diving shoes I was wearing, I was surprised to find that this set of shoe prints,
It turned out that it was not left behind by our people!
