160. The Sunken City

After watching the video repeatedly, Lu Jian was convinced that there were indeed some buildings on the island.

However, the shape of these buildings is extremely special, different from normal buildings, more like some kind of obelisk or twisted tower.

Under normal circumstances, architects would not build a house like this, let alone on a stormy sea. Such a house would withstand greater wind resistance. When a typhoon strikes, it may shake or even collapse.

However, the island remained motionless in the wind and rain, despite the wind and rain, and the rolling waves, only looming due to the torrential rain.

At the end of the video, as the waves surged, the ship left the vicinity of the island and disappeared below the sea level. No one knew what it was.

Lu Tan read the comments.

【Is there a house on this island? Are there people living on it?】

[Impossible. If there are really people living there, there should be a port or something like that, and the captain should know what kind of island this is.]

[This is normal. There are many islands in the ocean that are not marked on maps, and this is probably one of them.]

[I have heard a saying that some islands are usually located under the sea surface, and only rise to the surface during certain special periods due to changes in tides. 】

[Did people once live on this island, but it sank to the bottom of the sea due to changes in geological movement and only recently resurfaced?]

[I think experts say that this is caused by volcanic activity on the seafloor. When volcanoes erupt, the magma gushes out of the sea and turns into islands! 】

[Could there be any fish-men up here? Is Atlantis here???]

[Atlantis is in the Atlantic Ocean, but this is the Pacific Ocean!]

He was obviously not the only one who noticed the abnormality on the island. People had different opinions, and some even involved metaphysics such as Mayan civilization and crystal skulls. The discussion quickly deviated from the topic.

Lu Tiao is not very interested in this kind of island in the sea. The main reason why he pays attention is that the "buildings" on this island give him a strange and uneasy feeling, just like what he saw in Dry Water Town in the Kingdom of Darkness.

The tall tower made of flesh and blood is like the projection of some evil and great will on this planet, full of indifference, grandeur, and cold texture.

"If you have the chance, you can go look for this island in the Pacific Ocean. Maybe you can get some inspiration."

Lu Tiao knew very well that even if weird things might be attracted to each other, he might encounter all kinds of strange things when he stayed in Jiangcheng, but the world was extremely vast and he wanted to know more about it.

To find out the secrets, you have to go out of your home and get in touch with the wider world. You can't get it out by just relying on yourself at home.

After looking at his phone for a while, Lu Tan put it down, closed his eyes, and quickly fell into a deep sleep amidst the melodious melody of the Spring Festival Gala playlist.

...

South Pacific, Pohnpei Island, cruise ship "Star", captain's cabin.

Captain Johnson Gustave had a chart in front of him, and his eyes were filled with worry.

"Although supplies are now available, the storm on the route is still raging. It is unrealistic to pass through the storm, and waiting for the storm to end will take several more days of sailing time..."

There are many storms in the South Pacific in autumn. In the absence of land, these low-pressure cyclones will absorb large amounts of seawater and lower their own temperatures, forming super storms that are rare on land one after another.

This year's storm is particularly strong. According to the weather forecast Johnson received, the lowest temperature in the clouds at the center of the typhoon was even close to minus 60 degrees, which means that this storm will be unprecedentedly powerful.

Currently, Pohnpei Island is still outside the storm, but if you look far ahead, you can see the dark clouds in the distance and the deep purple lightning hidden in the clouds. Any ship that enters the storm at this time is seeking death.

.

Not to mention, Captain Johnson saw that.

"I didn't expect to encounter that island. It seems that Li was right this time. It is not suitable to travel."

He remembered the calendar his Dongfang wife had read before traveling, which said "not suitable for travel". He had scoffed at it at the time, but he didn't expect it to come true.

If the "Stars" was just a cargo ship, then Captain Johnson would at most be worried about unscrupulous pirates coming to visit. However, this is a cruise ship carrying four thousand passengers, and the people on the ship need to consume resources to eat, drink and have sex.

Now, the voyage has just passed halfway. If the consumption continues like this, Captain Johnson will probably return early.

Moreover, he encountered the "unknown island" in the storm.

This is a legend spread among sailors walking in the Pacific. Somewhere in the Pacific, there is an island left by prehistoric civilization. The island is usually submerged by waves and is located under the sea level. But at certain times,

In a huge storm, the island will emerge from the sea, and as long as the ships have seen that island, they will encounter difficulties or even sink.

Captain Johnson did not believe this. He preferred to believe that the island that was originally underwater was actually much larger than it looked. There were similar reefs on the seabed of that area of ​​water, which caused the ships to see the island.

They are prone to breakdown on rocks, so this legend is left behind.

"only......"

Perhaps due to the mental depression caused by the long voyage, several people on the ship, including sailors, had become mentally disturbed, emotionally unstable, and hallucinating. Captain Johnson decisively isolated these people and asked the ship's doctor to give them medication.

Tranquilizer.

Some sailors began to spread rumors that these people had suffered bad luck because they saw the island. For a while, people were panicked.

What Captain Johnson wants now is for the storm to calm down as soon as possible so that they can reach their destination.

"I hope there won't be any more trouble."

He looked at the increasingly violent storm and sighed.

...

In the morning, Lu Tan opened his eyes and looked at the time. It was eight o'clock exactly.

The melody of "Let's Swing the Oars" was still echoing in his ears. Surprisingly, Lu Tan didn't feel any chest tightness or shortness of breath. He lowered his head and looked at his body, but the mist was nowhere to be found.

Getting up and opening the curtains, Lu Jian saw the golden sunshine shining on the earth, leaving a bright spot. He came to the living room and soon understood why it was so refreshing this morning.

The two mists were pressing on Qin Tiantian's body, like two sleeping cats. As for Qin Tiantian, who was lying on the sofa, she had already kicked away the blanket that Lu Tan had kindly covered her with. Shark's home clothes

The hem was lifted up, revealing her flat belly and belly button.

Her expression was a little painful, maybe she was having a nightmare!

Lu Tan called her.

"So heavy..."

Qin Tiantian babbled in his sleep.

The two masses of mist remained motionless and still rested on Qin Tiantian's flight deck.
