Chapter 216 Exploration and Discovery of the Water World
Chen Lin has not returned to the outpost these days. He has been staying at the northern base. His main job every day is to watch Yang Li and the Qinglong Team in the water world. exploration.
The diving suits worn by the Qinglong Team are specially made for the military. They can dive to a maximum depth of about 300 meters underwater. The limit time is about 15 hours. However, they usually come up after diving for about two hours. .
The Qinglong Team, led by its captain Yang Li, explored the area under the sea for the first time.
They found a small number of marine life in this area, and the number of fish creatures was much less than on earth.
"What is this thing called? Bubble fish?"
Chen Lin looked at the picture sent back. The proposed name was already displayed below, and he suddenly felt dumbfounded. There was something funny about this name.
However, this fish is shaped like an acute triangle, which is indeed obviously different from the marine life on earth.
“This is called a dart fish?”
“This is called a rabbit fish??”
Chen Lin then saw all kinds of strange marine creatures, and the names were quite unique. They were all called big-eyed fish, small-eyed fish, cave fish, and swallow fish.
“There are not many creatures in the sea below the portal. It is similar to what you guessed in the pictures you saw on the stone gate. It is almost certain that this water world has experienced biological extinction.”
The person in charge of the Northern Portal sat in front of Chen Lin and pushed over a piece of information again, "All fish species that can be found in this sea area have been tested for viruses, and it was found that they are more or less carrying There is that unknown virus."
Chen Lin frowned slightly and asked aloud: "Did Colonel Yang and the members of the Qinglong Team feel uncomfortable today?"
" Not yet.”
The person in charge shook his head, "They have sent body fluids for testing for a week in a row, and the blood data are all normal... Only one of the team members may have caught a cold because he didn't pay attention at night, and he has some symptoms of a cold today."
Chen Lin raised his head and looked at the person in charge: "Didn't they receive the same vaccinations before they went there? Generally speaking, it is difficult for such symptoms to occur."
"We also have this I thought, so I arranged for that person to undergo a blood test, and the results will be available soon."
The man in front of me said: "In the news I have received in the past few days, the team has been mentioned repeatedly. Hallucinations before the members’ eyes.”
Chen Lin didn’t know about this before, so he frowned slightly when he heard it said: “What kind of hallucinations?”
"It is said to be the phantom of some strange-shaped ocean beast."
The person in charge adjusted his glasses and said slowly: "At first, only Colonel Yang was like this. At that time, some people said that he was Hallucinations caused by staying up late. "
" Immediately afterwards, a phantom appeared in front of everyone in the Qinglong Team... After the news was reported, we guessed that it might not be a hallucination, but some kind of creature that was attacking us in a special way. They communicated. "
Chen Lin stared at the person in charge and nodded.
“I agree with your statement, it is most likely communication.”
"The team members received the message from this phantom and wanted them to enter the deep sea..."
Chen Lin stopped what he was doing in surprise, squinted his eyes and said: "This Could it be a scene from some kind of mythology? Some deep-sea Cthulhu monsters are fatally tempting humans in order to trick living beings into entering the deep sea to serve as their food."
The person in charge suddenly laughed.
After a moment, he stopped smiling and continued: "The phantom is currently only described in reports from the Qinglong Team. It cannot be detected with various devices. It should be a spiritual or psychic communication method. "
"This is part of the information reported by Colonel Yang. Take a look."
Chen Lin nodded and opened the documents in front of him.
Yang Li carefully recorded the many exchanges between himself and the phantom. The shape of the phantom was described as some kind of huge deep-sea creature, with long luminous tentacles on both sides.
Xuying confirmed Yang Li's identity, and then realized that they were also infected with an unknown virus in this water world, and guided them into the area 1,500 meters below the deep sea with a very soft voice. , which claims it can help them.
The communication between the two is almost one-sided, because Yang Li can only listen but cannot choose to answer.
"Telepathy."
Chen Lin put down the information, looked at the person in charge in front of him, and said with certainty: "There is no doubt that there have been aliens on this planet. It is very likely that there are alien spacecraft wreckage and ruins here. If possible, Let the team members look for it along the way."
"As for this mysterious shadow on the seabed, my suggestion is that the outpost prepares deep-sea diving equipment for them, and if conditions permit, try to go as deep as possible. "
The person in charge nodded slightly. He also had this intention. He came to meet with Chen Lin today to seek advice from Chen Lin, a person with a special status. When giving a work report, eliciting Chen Lin's words can even have a miraculous effect.
It was Chen Lin who discovered the fatal danger in the water world before. In many cases, his talents can play a very special role.
Although Chen Lin is not the one who makes the final decision, his suggestions always occupy a very important column.
...
Ocean World.
Yang Li and the team members led by him have successfully explored the surrounding sea area where they are located.
“The depth limit of this sea area is 80 meters, and the depth will continue to increase as you go west.”
“No dangerous marine life has been found so far, and the light is still good. We will continue Come down and continue to the west, Captain?”
"Go to the depths of the ocean! Contact the outpost and ask for the support of a deep-sea diving device."
"I also saw that phantom. Her voice seemed a bit feminine... Could it be true? What kind of deep-sea banshee is it?”
“Oh, if we encounter any Lao Shizi deep-sea banshee, we will just give her a 5.8 explosive bomb!”
“Really! If that doesn't work, there are portable underwater explosives and individual mines. As long as it is a carbon-based creature with flesh and blood, there is no need to be afraid!"
A group of people said with excitement, throwing away their fears and worries just now! To the back of the head.
After all, the current situation cannot be worse.
At this time, the three of the Qinglong team were following the captain Yang Li along the established route underwater. The sound of breathing oxygen bubbles and water came to their ears. Yang Li, who was leading the team in front, suddenly stopped. down.
"We have reached the edge of this area." Yang Li pointed to the cliff-like place in front of him and said in a low voice: "The depth in front is estimated to be one dimension deeper than where we are, at least. Also 200 meters up, record the terrain.”
“Where are the unmanned equipment, check it out”
"The light is too dark, I can't see anything clearly... I don't know if there is any danger inside."
"How deep is the place where the shadow takes us?"
"At least It is also at a depth of 1,500 meters. It is impossible to go to such a deep place without using a submarine... It would be great if we had a submarine like the Jiaolong. At least we can ride that thing to go directly to 1,500 meters! "< br>
The discussion among the team members suddenly made Yang Li wake up. He turned to look at the team member who was speaking, with a somewhat excited tone: "Researcher Xu is right! We can't go on like this anymore, we should Just give up the current meaningless exploration, apply for a submarine directly to the outpost, and go straight to the depth of 1,500 meters underwater!"
"The shadow doesn't mean that we can be saved after we go there! Then we can try it like this!”
"The entire Qinglong team is here, surface immediately and return to the temporary base!"
Yang Li felt that he had rekindled hope. It was really slow to explore below in a diving suit. It was not possible to go directly to the submarine. Just got everything?
He didn't even think of such a simple and crude method at the beginning, which was really stupid.
The application from Sea World was quickly approved by the outpost. A deep-sea submarine was quickly transported from the Red Mountain Base on Earth and was sent directly to the North through the teleportation array. Here is the portal base of the land.
Chen Lin was quite surprised by the appearance of this thing. When he came here to watch the fun, he noticed that the deep-sea submarine did not have any weapons and equipment, and it was completely engaged in scientific research.
"Why don't you bring all the military submarines here?"
Chen Lin stood on the side of the person in charge of the base, frowned and said: "The scientific research ship has no weapons. After it really enters the deep sea area, What should I do if I encounter danger? "
The person in charge glanced at Chen Lin and responded with a smile: "Only scientific research ships can normally dive to a depth of 1,500 meters. Military submarines generally cannot dive this deep. "
"As for the weapons, we have some people who have the skills, so we can just modify them."
The person in charge said with a smile, "This is very simple for us."< br>
The submarine was equipped with a torpedo launcher provided by the Weapons Research and Development Institute at the portal base. It was normally equipped with twelve torpedoes, which was enough for it to launch three rounds.
While Yang Li and his Qinglong team were waiting for the submarine, they thoroughly handled the work on the sea.
With the mission temporarily gone, Yang Li and everyone in the Qinglong Team officially began their exploration of the entire water world.
Yang Li even took his team members on an assault boat and headed due north, and was extremely lucky to find a hidden island in this direction!
The news of the discovery of the island was immediately conveyed to the outpost by Yang Li and others. They took a large number of pictures and videos, and directly launched a drone to go to the island for preliminary exploration. According to the unmanned aerial vehicle Judging from the pictures taken by the camera, there is no life on the island, and there is only a lonely special building.
Yang Li brought a large amount of supplies and personnel to the island again for the second time. After repeatedly confirming that there was no danger on the island, they quickly approached the special black building.
The shape of the building is not outstanding. It is rectangular in shape and made of some kind of black substance. The only thing that attracts people is that there is a huge turret-like object standing in the middle of the building.
Yang Li and others went around in a circle and successfully found the main entrance of the building. However, they were unable to enter the main entrance of the building. There was some kind of identity confirmation device on the right side of the door.
"Is it locked?"
The members of the Qinglong team in front went up to try and found that the building door did not respond at all.
"It seems that some other key is needed to open it... The question is where did we get the key?"
"If there are words on it, take a photo and send it to the outpost for someone to translate it."
"Is this an alien ruin? The probability of us encountering this kind of thing has been higher recently."
"Haha, it's a different world, except for us, they are all aliens!"
>
“Let’s set up a temporary camp here first. We will spend the night here tonight... It has been more than ten days. It is the first time to sleep on land. It is not easy!”
The pictures taken at the scene were quickly sent back to the outpost and quickly transferred to Chen Lin's mobile phone.
The only person in the outpost, Hongshan Base and even the association who can really understand these special alien text-like symbols is Chen Lin.
“This is the name of the building—the immune execution platform.”
Chen Lin recognized it just by looking at it, and he looked at the eager researchers beside him. He said: "The previous text is - [Pioneer], and when combined, it is [Pioneer Immunity Execution Platform]."
"Immune Execution Platform?"
After several researchers got this answer from Chen Lin, they looked at each other and were a little confused: "What does this name mean?"
"Immunity execution, is there a vaccine that can cure the water world virus? Right?"
"Haha, if there was one, it would have been used long ago, how could it be delayed until now?"
"This may be an alien research institute, so be careful when entering it. Among them.”
“No, no, no, combined with the unknown virus on this planet, maybe this building is designed to prevent the virus from leaking!”
Chen Lin intervened at this time and confirmed the latter researcher's conjecture: "This thing is probably some kind of super weapon designed by the owner of this building to prevent any virus-infected beings from escaping or entering the planet."
A few people were a little surprised by Chen Lin's bold addition, but if you think about it carefully, it really makes sense. The huge building looks like a cannon.
Assuming that thing is a turret, then this super weapon is most likely built to prevent infected creatures from escaping or landing on the planet!
"Mr. Chen, is there any way to open the door?"
Chen Lin shook his head. He did not see any additional information from the footage taken by the drone, but that The special device at the door is like an identification device, obviously something is needed to enter.
"Perhaps a key is needed. The text on the door does not give any hint. It is up to Colonel Yang and others to explore where the key is."
A group of researchers were slightly regretful, but Chen Lin Being able to translate the name on the door was enough of a surprise, so they simply passed the news on, hoping that the few warriors in the water world could find a way to enter the building.
Chen Lin had no idea about entering this building from the beginning. What he was most interested in now was actually the shadow mentioned by Yang Li, Qinglong Team and others.
Some kind of strange sea creature that can telepathize or transmit mental power. If we can really see it, maybe all this will finally have the answer.
