Chapter 610: Ore Town Harbor Anecdote Record Thirteen
According to common sense analysis, a whirlpool of this size underwater is just like a tornado that is larger or even thicker on the shore. The violent wind must be extremely destructive and can easily turn people who are close to it into the bottom workers of Alibaba.
But this water area is too quiet!
The scope of the undersea whirlpool is fierce and turbulent, spinning wildly with the momentum of sweeping everything, and the branches like giant tree branches are twisting maliciously; but only a thin line separates them, and the giant fish with a vague figure is graceful.
He slid the paddle fins leisurely and opened and closed the huge mouth with rows of sharp teeth, as if he didn't even notice...
This picture doesn’t look right no matter how you look at it.
It wasn't until I got closer that I discovered that on the edge of the collapsed rock, there was a circle of huge conical stone pillars standing in rows, densely surrounding the huge vortex that could spread at any time.
When I approached the cone-shaped stone pillars surrounding the abyss, I discovered a ring-shaped structure on the surface of the stone pillars that had not been completely erased over time!
...Are the people under the water so idle? They even spend time carving circular patterns of even thickness on the pillars!
I cursed irresponsibly, thinking that these people are so free, why don't they carve hollow flowers for lotus roots?
As we go deeper, we have gradually confirmed that the dark ocean floor we are walking on should be the last remnant of a certain magnificent ancient building.
From the fractured strata exposed from time to time at the feet, it can be seen that the internal structure of the building, which is neither brick nor tile, was destroyed by the force of a suspected catastrophe.
There is no doubt that a great civilization once existed here, and left behind incredible architectural complexes. Unfortunately, no matter how great a civilization is, it cannot withstand the passage of time, and finally, with unspeakable glory, it remains silent.
Buried under the sea...
Due to the limited light and turbid water flow, my peripheral vision is very narrow, but I can still imagine how majestic and vast this ruin is in places that can no longer be seen.
I can't help but think that if some human being is lucky enough to be able to see it all...
No, even if you just look up humbly while lying on the ground, you will probably be like Qin Wuyang who broke into Xianyang Palace, trembling in front of the violent and silent imperial majesty, sweating profusely, and completely abandoning the courage he was proud of in his heart.
…
In the face of the vast unknown, silent darkness is the final protection. What's even better is that even if it fails to protect, it can still cover up the hoarse wail of mental collapse when tiny beings glimpse the truth...
The team passed through the gap between two giant cone-shaped pillars, and Kay finally stopped our movement.
There are many dangers ahead. If you are accidentally drawn into the underwater whirlpool, you will undoubtedly fall into the bottomless abyss. Even if the planet is recast from earth, water, fire, and wind, you will not be able to climb out.
But in crisis, there are always opportunities.
According to Kaye's pre-plan, there may be a submarine geyser at the bottom of the water. Every once in a while, there will be a small reverse ocean current, which can push small objects out of the sea at an extremely fast speed, and finally send them away from this sea area.
These things that were accidentally pushed out of the mysterious area in the eye of the storm have become important clues for the Voyager Alliance to search hard and decipher this erratic and mysterious place.
Originally, this method would be much safer and more reliable by using a speedboat, but by swimming, it is impossible to catch up with the fleeting abnormal ocean currents. We can only risk getting close to the source of the underwater whirlpool and capture the reverse current at close range!
But in terms of operation, I still can't imagine what kind of reverse flow of water can send people out - if it really had this level of kinetic energy, then this force would have been like a magic piercing light killing cannon, circling all of us.
Became Raditz.
At this time, the oxygen consumption has exceeded 90%, and the smell in the extreme diving suit is also extremely pungent. If we continue, this diving suit may become our shroud.
There is no doubt that when this road reaches here, even if it is a dead end, we must go through it!
In the extremely dark environment, the shapeless branches of the giant tree are still swaying, making various creepy shapes. Even if you can't feel the suction of the vortex, the extremely black color can transform into something that can enchant people.
The terrifying feeling of being sucked in with your soul...
Kai suddenly waved his hand fiercely and shined a searchlight into the depths of the whirlpool!
Gray and I looked in the direction, and sure enough we saw a fluid like white mist, which went against the norm and was pouring out from the depths of the vortex, rushing in a certain direction as fast as lightning!
The scene of such an underwater spring erupting is extremely magnificent, but we are not in the mood to watch it. Without hesitation, we kicked off the ground, swayed our bodies vigorously, and quickly swam to the location where the white mist fluid was about to pass, and we took the gamble!
Close!
Very close!
After we flashed past a cone-shaped stone pillar, we were only one step away from the hope of escaping!
We seemed to be able to reach out and touch the white mist, and when the light passed by us at close range, it actually reflected light as beautifully as ice crystals!
But at this critical moment, walking at the end of the team, I suddenly noticed that a figure suddenly fell off Kay's back, got out like a fish, and suddenly stepped on the cone-shaped stone pillar next to it!
The surrounding water flow was suddenly disturbed, but the white mist still approached as expected. The swaying and collapsed cone-shaped stone pillar hit the white mist first, and then waved out an arc, pushing us towards the black branches of a swirling giant tree!
A huge, whip-like vortex swept us in without a doubt...
…………
I don’t know how long it took, but I slowly woke up again. I felt like the bones in my body were being crushed, and my brain was in a mess. I retched for a while before standing up on the floor.
I shook Gray and Kay, who were also unconscious next to me, awake.
"Kay! Gray! Wake up!"
Gray, who was sleeping, was instantly awakened and got up from the ground. But when Kay got up, he felt something was wrong.
"Where is Stuart?!"
The young man in the purple turban wanted to check whether the person carrying the bag was intact, but he felt a light touch on his back, and when he checked his hand, he found a problem behind his back.
The person on his back...is missing!
With the illumination of the ring, now you don't even need to turn on the searchlight, and you have 360-degree illumination without blind spots.
I stood up and said: "Don't look, there is only a broken rope on your back, and there are some blood stains on it... Oh, and a broken front tooth - unless you are carrying someone who can only be seen by smart people,
Otherwise he would just run away."
Kay glared.
Hearing this, Gray was a little hesitant, and before we noticed him, he secretly checked the wounded man tied behind his back. Since he was carrying someone on his back, he was lying on the ground with his face as a cushion, which was quite uncomfortable.
Protected Elliot well.
Then he said with confidence: "My people are still here!"
I whispered: "But it is said that dogs can see things that humans cannot see..."
Gray glared.
The two people stared at me for a while, and then suddenly asked in a strange tone: "Marcus... what is that glowing thing of yours..."
In the darkness, I found that my fingers, through the diving suit that theoretically could not transmit light, were emitting an extremely dazzling light, as bright as the rising sun, about to illuminate the darkness hidden in this area.
Oh, it's just an ordinary, priceless ring.
I carefully covered my fingers, "What do you want to do? This is my baby GuluGulu! my precious..."
Gray covered his face and said to me: "Boss, don't get me wrong... we are not talking about the glow..."
Oh, yes, Gray has seen the power of the King Soul's First Fire Ring, so there is no way he can still act like he has never seen the world.
So what are they talking about...
I looked down and found that in addition to the shining ring on my hand, there was also a light source shining through the diving suit on my crotch. The light source was particularly eye-catching...
I expressionlessly took out a shining ball from my waterproof pocket, "Isn't it the Jade of Reality... Now I declare a Catch-22, no one is allowed to mention this matter again.
"
Twenty-two is really a good number. A certain person from Nanchang, Taiwan may not have thought that he would coincide with the ancients.
We checked the damage for a while and found that except for the loss of a paralyzed man, there were no obvious changes.
Gray wore a mask and said dullly: "It seems that we were not unconscious for long, and we did not even use up the last bit of oxygen. Otherwise, everyone would have suffocated to death in the middle of their sleep."
Kay took off his mask with a wry smile, seemingly not caring whether the air in this mysterious place was poisonous.
"Kay, be careful when you exhale!" Gray reminded.
But Kai turned around and took the initiative to reveal a crack in his back.
"It's okay, my extreme diving suit has been cut long ago..."
I deliberately felt it, and sure enough I found that the air I breathed was less bitter and had more of a salty sea flavor.
Upon further inspection, it turned out that all four wetsuits had been chewed open, and they were already connected inside and outside.
Chapter completed!
