Chapter 585 Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea

The water bubble slowly rose to the surface of the sea. As the surrounding seawater receded, Hao Ren found that he had arrived at an unusually calm water. He looked around and found that not far to the left was a dark, turtle-shaped island. There was nothing on the island, but the surrounding area was clear and clear with excellent air. He did not see what he expected. Large areas of thick fog.

"You said this place is called the Island of Mist?" Lily looked at the slowly approaching black island in surprise, "It doesn't look like there is any fog at all."

"Look around," Shakeela pointed to the sea around her with the tip of her tail. "Can you see any reference? Even a wave."

Vivian's eyes widened: "There is nothing... This water surface is incredibly quiet, and you can't even see a ripple?!"

The entire sea area within sight was so calm that it was almost eerie. Even if you looked far into the distance, you could not see any reference objects on the sea level. The water was as calm as a perfect artificially polished mirror, without even the slightest wrinkle. The skylight is uniform from any direction. The sun hangs in the middle of the sky as if it has been finely calibrated, casting a uniform light. This sunlight adds a strangeness to this water area.

The small black island not far away is the only strange color between the sea and the sky. Other than that, the whole world seems to have turned into a monotonous blue and white color, and is clearly divided into upper and lower parts. There is no doubt - -This is not a natural phenomenon.

"Are we still on the earth?" Hao Ren patted his pocket and muttered in a voice almost to himself, and the voice of the data terminal rang in his mind: "Coordinate comparison... the current position is still the earth, but However, there is a layer of something similar to an enchantment around it, which changes the natural landscape within the range. It has obvious traces of artificial encryption, but we have already entered once, and next time we are confident that we can crack the entry rules of this place."

"This is the Island of Mist. The mist is not on the island, but in the entire space." Soma swam near the crowd while introducing the only entrance to the world of Siren. "You can only pass through several consecutive Only at the correct node can you see the foggy island in front of you. Once any other route approaches this water area, it will encounter the everlasting thick fog. Even the most advanced ships of mankind will be completely intact after making several large circles. The way back. Many navigators who are not easy to fool have recorded the thick fog in this place, so we have to change the entry and exit patterns and induction locations of the thick fog every once in a while. Those explorers are really difficult to deal with. I don’t know how they can There’s so much interest in knocking on our door.”

"You can only enter Nasa Torn by diving from one side of the Misty Island. The water body around this island is the most critical 'node' leading to Nasa Torn." Shakira swam over and held Nangong Wuyue's hand. hand, "Little sister, do you remember the information about the water flow that just passed by?"

As a sea monster, Nangong Wuyue could sense the "route" just now. She nodded, with surprise on her face: "I didn't expect my hometown to be so hidden... It's much better than I thought. No wonder I couldn't find the Siren City after trying several times before."

"Perhaps your mother kept you away from Nasatorn to protect you, but being unable to return to your hometown is ultimately a pity thing." Soma also swam over. "From now on, you can freely enter and leave this place, and you can Bring the few friends here today - but no others. Finally, although Nasatorn seems to be in some trouble, you are still welcome to come home, young sister."

The three sea monsters turned over and jumped into the water, their scales reflecting the golden light in the sun. Doudou was looking around Hao Ren's collar to observe the outside world. When he saw this, he jumped down with a cheer and swung his tail vigorously to catch up with the three "sisters" ". The little guy jumped out of the water excitedly from time to time along the way, spinning around in the air like a dolphin and greeting everyone: "Water! So much water! I like this place!"

The vastness of the sea seemed to give the little one a sense of familiarity with her home world, and she seemed extremely excited from just now.

Hao Ren and the others stepped on the foam and water under their feet and followed the three sea monsters as they gradually approached the black island. Nangong Sanba looked at the scene on the island and seemed to suddenly see something of concern. He raised his hand and shouted to the sea monster in the distance: "Can you go to the island and have a look?"

"No problem," Shakira's voice came from the front, "But don't stay too long!"

A group of people set foot on this black turtle-backed island that has not been recorded on any navigation chart. Its regular shape does not look like a natural creation at all. The entire island is as natural as a piece of metal equipment. The surface is covered with large but not deep grooves. Lily bent down and touched the black and cold "ground" and exclaimed: "Is it warm?!"

"There is an energy reaction deep in the island," the voice of the data terminal sounded in the minds of Hao Ren and others. "It is the part of a huge spherical device exposed above the water. The ball is floating in the water, and this machine scanned the bottom of it. One hundred and thirty-five pipelines are connected to the seafloor, which may be a system that interacts with the thermal energy of the seafloor. And this device itself is the source of the fog enchantment."

Some sparsely distributed man-made things can be seen on the black island. They are shaped like corals and stick out of the ground in clusters, but there is a faint fluorescent light floating on the surface. Elizabeth poked one of the "corals" curiously, and the latter immediately made a pleasant sound of wind chimes.

Then the little girl was shocked until her face turned black and gray.

Elizabeth was still happy: "It's so exciting!"

"I thought the sea monster only knew magic..." Hao Ren looked at all this in surprise, "I didn't expect them to create such a thing."

"Can't we use magic to build automatic facilities?" Vivian asked in return, "And a race that is not disturbed by the outside world has developed in the deep sea for ten thousand years. How could they not build something powerful to guard their home. After all, they have never been disturbed by the outside world. In a sense, they are the earliest civilization on this planet."

At this time, there was a sound of water behind everyone, and Shakeela climbed up to the shore and greeted everyone: "Are you ready to dive?"

The group of people took a water bladder to the deep sea. During the dive, Hao Ren and the others kept paying attention to the direction of the Mist Island. As expected, they saw what the data terminal described as the true appearance of the "island" underwater. It was a huge sphere, and the part under the water was even more complicated. Many shimmering bulges can be seen below the center line of the sphere. They change in brightness and darkness with a certain rhythm, seeming to be responding to the currents surrounding the sea. At the bottom of this giant ball are a large number of black cables that look like deep-sea cables. They scatter and hang down into the deep water, and eventually disappear into the endless darkness, extending to unknown directions.

This is not a technological creation, but a huge magical device - but to earth civilization, it is no different from superb alien science.

After the water bubble dived to a certain depth, it changed its course and began to move away from the Mist Island. Hao Ren noticed that there were some bright light groups flashing outside from time to time. They might be luminous animals in the deep sea, or they might be... Some kind of "signpost" set by the Kraken. Doudou became interested after wandering outside for a while, and is now swimming around the outer wall of the water bubble. From time to time, he jumps in and out of the bubbles that have openings on the water wall. Carefully guarding the entrance of the hole, she was responsible for preventing Doudou from falling - this cat knew that if she could not take good care of the fish, not only would she be beaten by the fish, but she would also probably not be able to eat small dried fish for the rest of her life... …

"We should be passing through a space medium," Yzaks suddenly felt something. He looked up at the dark water wall above, "I feel like something has changed... The magic of the sea monsters is very clever. The magic they created The spatial interlayer is so smooth that it is almost imperceptible."

"So people who accidentally enter it have almost no way to get out alive. Before you know it, you have entered an endless water world," Shakira said next to her, "Although we didn't recruit anyone, we didn't. Although we are living in our own little kingdom, there are still many reckless adventurers who break in every year. They will 100% get lost in this layered and invisible deep sea maze. We have sent many sea monsters to When patrolling outside, we will try our best to rescue those in distress, but some unlucky ones will inevitably miss the rescue. But it has been a hundred years since I left here, and I don’t know if any humans have broken into this place recently."

At this time, a bright light appeared at the front of the water vesicle, and Soma's voice came from the front: "You can see the Great Wall of Nasatorn."
