Chapter 273
Of all things in the world, one thing is sure to bring down another. There must be a reason why such a ferocious monster only hides in the lower layer of the lake.
This reminded Lin Hun of the smoke soul in Lop Nur. He was invulnerable, but his biggest weakness was that he couldn't see clear water. That's why he hid in the dry desert area.
"Okay, no problem."
Nolan Vincent seemed to have made up a lot of determination before he squeezed out these words.
Lin Hun looked at the huge backpack behind him with a smile. Something that Nolan Vincent could value must be something great.
Turning off the air circulation machine again, Lin Huan turned on the air propeller behind him and released the oxygen in the oxygen bottle to his heart's content, spraying it towards the hairtail that was about to catch up.
The moment it encountered the bubbles, the hairtail fish's body felt as if it had been exposed to sulfuric acid. Bubbles suddenly bulged up one after another, and the silver scales lifted up piece by piece, revealing the snow-white fish flesh.
Taking the opportunity to turn on the underwater propeller, Lin Huan took Nolan Vincent up quickly with the help of air propulsion, and soon reached the isolation layer at a depth of twenty meters. Lin Huan called it the jelly layer.
The moment he emerged from the deep water layer, Lin Huan felt as if his head had reached the sky. The air in the oxygen bottle had long been exhausted, so when he emerged from the jelly layer, Lin Huan immediately activated his powers to form a mucous membrane in his nostrils.
Filter the oxygen in the water and breathe freely.
"abnormal."
These words were of course attributed to Lin Hun. In Nolan Vincent's opinion, Lin Hun was very courageous and even threw away the oxygen bottle. If it were him, he would never dare to take this risk.
Floating on the jelly layer, Nolan Vincent patted his chest through the thick diving suit. He still has waves of fear. If it weren't for Lin Hun, he would probably be buried at the bottom of the lake.
The door becomes food in the belly of a big fish, or it becomes an ice sculpture and sinks to the bottom of the water forever, never to see the light of day.
Until now, he still didn't understand how Lin Huan defeated that big fish.
The pointed head of the hairtail fish was just under the jelly layer, and the one eye actually opened, looking at the two men fiercely, but it did not dare to take a step beyond the boundaries.
"Damn it, you still want to bully me."
Looking at the big one-eyed man, Nolan Vincent got angry, took out his pistol, took a slight aim, and fired three bursts.
But the bullet hit the jelly layer and was quickly wrapped in thick ice, playing in slow motion.
The hairtail fish closed its eyes tightly, and the bullet hit the eyelid, but it did not cause any substantial damage to it.
Knowing that he could not catch two humans, the hairtail circled around a few times before sinking to the bottom of the lake.
"Where did the fish come from in this anoxic layer? It's so big. And do fish have eyelids?"
Staring at the monster's back blankly, Lin Huan's heart was beating wildly. Wrong information was the biggest original sin.
Who said that there are no living things in this oxygen-free layer? Can living things survive without oxygen?
"Do you really think it's a living thing?"
Roland Vincent asked back.
"At least it's alive, just like a zombie. What, you mean, this one-eyed hairtail fish is originally a zombie, just like the ghost sharks in Dolphin Bay. But Dolphin Bay is not an oxygen-free environment."
Lin Huan scratched his head. He could only explain it this way. The definition of a creature is a living thing, and zombies can also be considered a type of creature.
"The smoke soul in Lop Nur is still a water-hating creature. I hope there is only one such thing. The world always has certain operating laws. When the operating laws permit, certain differences are allowed. This is also the law of the world.
Who knows."
Thinking about future treasure hunting operations, Nolan Vincent felt waves of fear.
The two of them closed their mouths in a tacit understanding. No one has been able to answer this question for thousands of years, and it is impossible for Lin Hun to know. In order to float on the water, Lin Hun had to reopen the air circulation system and fill the buoyancy bag.
The air keeps the body floating above the water.
In order to reassure Dai Fangfang and Zuo Yinglu, Lin Huan switched the communicator back to the dedicated channel, and Dai Fangfang's anxious voice immediately came from the communicator.
"Hun Lin, what's going on? What happened?"
"It's okay. I met an old man and we had a fight. He lost and said he would pay a ransom. After the delivery, I will go back directly."
After checking that Dai Fangfang was safe, Lin Huan pointed to a small mountain col far away from the camp. Nolan Vincent immediately understood, and the two of them sped up and rushed towards the hidden place.
After landing on the shore, he took off his wetsuit that was not wet with water, and spread out his backpack directly on the snow, revealing several small metal boxes inside.
Judging from the carving style of the metal box, it seems that it is something from Germany a hundred years ago. Because there is no oxygen at the bottom of the lake, there is no such thing as oxidation, so the metal box looks as bright as new, and the light is discernible.
"Damn it, there must be a conspiracy to share the treasure with me so happily."
In view of the car in front of him, Lin Hun was more cautious this time. He just watched nearby and did not take action, so as not to be regarded as someone else's submachine gun again.
As if he saw Lin Huan's thoughts, Nolan Vincent smiled slightly, but picked up the box and started playing with it.
However, in the middle of a pile of boxes, there was a black-green stone the size of a fist, which caught Lin Hun's attention. The black skin on the outside was translucent and thin, reflecting the light of the snow, but the inside actually revealed a green light.
"Emerald? Kahuite."
Lin Hun searched his mind and picked out a special noun from his mind. He didn't know much about jade. Ever since the river fisher talked about Okamura Neji's jade bead, Lin Hun became very interested and supplemented his knowledge on it.
, but there is only theory but no practical operation.
However, no matter how little knowledge he had, Lin Hun could still tell that this was a piece of raw jadeite, and the quality was quite good.
"Do you think you can get imperial green? I heard that this thing is very valuable in China."
Nolan Vincent didn't care about the jadeite ore, but concentrated on tinkering with his small metal box.
These metal boxes are as big as jewelry boxes. I really don’t know what the use of these things is if they sink at the bottom of the water.
"How many more boxes are there?"
Finding scratches on many boxes, Lin Hun immediately became more energetic. Thinking about Nolan Vincent's personality, he seemed to always take advantage of other people's backs. When had he ever seen him take the initiative to search for treasures?
"There are quite a few others, and they were all taken away by the little devils, but this is the only stone that I took with me."
Speaking of his great achievements, Nolan Vincent is actually a little complacent.
"Hey!" Lin Huan pulled out his saber and cut open the skin of the Kahui mine. As expected, there was an imperial green jadeite inside. This piece of jadeite alone was worth a fortune.
A gap was cut at both ends of the raw ore, and through this gap, a faint blue light was revealed among the thick green.
"Addiction stone?"
Lin Huan and Nolan Vincent lost their voices almost at the same time, but Lin Huan was looking at the stone in his hand, while Nolan Vincent was looking at the box in his hand.
