Chapter 611 Under the Deep Sea
The Giant Turtle Rock Platform dived silently and quickly in the water, leaving behind the violent storm on the sea level. The images transmitted from the external monitor were converted to several large holographic projections. These holographic projections formed an immersive scene, as if the heavy armor around the bridge had disappeared, and everyone could directly experience the feeling of being immersed in the deep sea.
The sea above gradually faded away, and soon only some vague flashes of light could be seen coming from it. It was Io's never-ending lightning and thunderstorms that illuminated the storm star: on this planet in the past The first new energy that the Kraken came into contact with after coming to the "air world" was lightning, and they realized "sunshine" more than a thousand years after Ivina observed the starry sky.
It's a pity that these historical details have been submerged in the rolling waves of Io, and it is probably difficult for anyone to know about it anymore.
As the depth of the dive increases, the turbulence of the water begins to calm down, and those violent winds and waves seem to be isolated from another world. The darkness is getting heavier and heavier, coming from all directions, but along with the darkness comes a strange sense of security. Lily hugged her shoulders and jumped up and down next to Hao Ren: "Oh my phobia of the deep sea has been brought out..."
Vivian patted her aside and said, "Don't make trouble, your brain can't suffer from such a complicated disease."
"The deeper you dive, the calmer you become..." Shakeela sat at the front of the bridge, looking out into the deep darkness. "When did our ancestors first swim up from the deep sea? Why did they think of leaving? A safe and peaceful seabed? How will they feel when they see a storm on the sea for the first time? Is it a novelty and surprise? Or is it panic?"
"Ethnic races with history can trace the trajectories of their ancestors from their own history books, but even if we return to our hometown, we can still only rely on guesswork to imagine how we lived here," the Siren Queen shook her head. "I came back here and there was no surprise, just emptiness."
"Perhaps you will feel better after seeing the ruins in the deep sea. I think those ruins should be similar to the scenery in Nasatorn." Vivian looked at the Siren Queen with a sigh in her eyes, "To be honest, you are better than Other aliens on the surface are strong. At least you are still trying to maintain your own culture and think about where you come from. But those guys on the surface don’t care about these things at all. For more than ten thousand years, everyone has lived like A group of wild animals.”
Hao Ren looked at Vivian with a strange expression: "Vivian, is it okay that you are always used to firing your compatriots' map cannons?"
Vivian crossed her arms and said, "As an elder, can I hate those guys who don't live up to their expectations?"
Hao Ren was speechless. He could only turn his head and order to the terminal: "Leave a detector for every kilometer you dive. You can't come here in vain. You can do some ecological survey on this planet or something."
An ejection channel opened at the top of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform, and a small detector rushed out from it, leaving a little light in the dark deep sea. At this time, the spacecraft (perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a submarine?) has sunk into completely dark waters. Apart from the lights on the ship, there is no light source visible here. However, the external monitor of the spacecraft is not based on optics. , so the darkness here does not prevent everyone from observing the outside. After continuing to sink for a certain distance, some strange-shaped animals began to appear in the water. Some of them were as long and slender as fish, while others looked like some kind of triangular insect covered with a thick carapace. These indigenous creatures have lived quietly here for many years. Now they were suddenly disturbed by a silver-white monster from outside. They immediately dispersed in fear. However, some courageous small aquatic animals still came closer. On the Giant Turtle Rock Platform The armor belt bumped lightly, maybe they thought this thing was edible?
Nangong Wuyue looked at the scenery outside with her eyes wide open, and her tail swung back and forth subconsciously: "I want to... go out for a couple of swims."
The Siren Queen and the other three were immediately interested. Soma raised the tip of his tail happily: "Oh, that's a good idea! Maybe taking a dip in the water in my hometown will give me a different feeling!"
Hao Ren tested the water quality here and confirmed that there were no more toxic substances in the place after ten thousand years of changes, and then agreed to the four sea monsters' diving request. An auxiliary passage opened on the side of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform, and four slender and graceful figures quickly rushed out of it.
Nangong Wuyue turned happily in the water, dragging her long tail around in front of the spacecraft, while the other three sea monsters curiously chased the strange deep-water creatures in the surrounding seawater. The faint glow emitted by the Giant Turtle Rock itself reflects the graceful figures of these water elves, like a wonderful scene in a fairy tale. Hao Ren turned on the communicator on the bridge, and Nangong Wuyue's cheerful voice came: "Hey! Landlord, these hard-shelled animals are chewing the serial number on the spaceship~~"
"Don't swim too far, or you'll get lost and never come back," Hao Ren smiled, "Katrina, how are you feeling now?"
The voice of the Siren Queen then came: "This water... is incredible, with a wonderful sense of intimacy. I don't know how to describe it to you, but only the Siren can feel that there is a kind of magic here. It's so good!"
Shakira jumped down a short distance, then waved vigorously at the spacecraft: "Bright light! There is bright light below! We seem to be almost at the bottom of the sea!"
The Giant Turtle Yantai made an extremely slight buzz and began to dive at a faster speed. A blurry halo of light soon appeared below the spacecraft.
What appears in the halo is a large and continuous expanse of man-made ruins.
On the flat and vast deep beach, endless Kraken buildings stretch as far as the eye can see. They are scattered high and low, distributed in an orderly manner, and made of some kind of white and light green man-made material. They are shaped like various structures stacked in various forms. All kinds of shells and corals are elegant, delicate, and full of inexplicable mystery. What shines between these buildings is not lights, but a large number of luminous algae - these algae grow luxuriantly in the gaps between the buildings that have been abandoned for more than 10,000 years, emitting a soft and mysterious light blue. Color, light pink glow, the entire city and even the entire seabed are far away from the darkness.
Today, more than 10,000 years after the Kraken's artificial lights were extinguished, the original light from nature has re-illuminated the deep sea.
This is an ancient kingdom hidden in the deep sea. Its endless land covers almost the entire planet's rocky outer layer, and above the kingdom is thick seawater with an average thickness of more than ten kilometers. The scale of this deep sea kingdom far exceeded the descriptions in many fairy tales and myths, so that Hao Ren didn't know how to describe this place for a while.
He only knew that when he looked at the planet above Io, no one would have thought that there was such a lost kingdom hidden under the endless storms and gray-blue ocean.
"According to the records in Nasatorn's database, this should be the capital of the Kraken back then." The data terminal compared the information, "Iva Duran. It seems that the portal opened here."
"The energy environment is very chaotic." Hao Ren turned on the radar and found that he could only vaguely sense the presence of a large energy vortex nearby, but all details were interfered with by a burst of strong background noise. "The two worlds should have interfered with each other. , the radar is in very bad shape here, it's almost like sleepwalking between two worlds."
The data terminal helped operate other equipment: "It should be nearby here. Start the conventional feed radar and take out optical observations. The vortex is so big, it won't be too difficult to find."
"Let's go help search for them too," the Siren Queen's voice came from the communicator, "Don't worry, we will return immediately if we encounter a situation, and we will never show any mercy."
The four sea monsters swam into the depths of Ivardulan (the ancient capital of the deep sea) in four directions. At the same time, the Giant Turtle Platform also began to search slowly. That portal seriously interfered with the natural laws of this place. This distortion involved the origin of the world, so even if Hao Ren was driving a super-advanced spaceship, he would not dare to mess around.
"Actually, I can also help with the exploration..." Vivian muttered to herself.
Lily looked at her in surprise: "Ah, bat, can your little bat still swim?"
Hao Ren curled his lips and said, "Why don't you two just sit quietly on the chairs for a while?"
At this time, Nangong Sanba suddenly saw something on the holographic projection, and immediately shouted: "Wait a minute! What do you think that is in front of you?!"
The holographic projection immediately enlarged the screen, and a huge, dark, strange creation appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Hao Ren's eyes suddenly widened: "Is this... a spaceship?"
