Chapter 844 Marine Life
After searching for several hours, Xiangshan's drone found two identical objects, suspended at different heights.
The density and weight differences of the volcanic rock fragments hanging below produced extremely subtle differences, causing these strange gadgets to randomly suspend in seawater with depths of several hundred meters due to the different densities of the seawater temperatures at different depths.
To be honest, if these small pieces of stone were all made by hand, then the craftsmanship of these "Stone Age craftsmen" would definitely be off the charts.
It is really puzzling that a group with 3D printers is so obsessed with making stone tools by hand.
But other than that, there are no other clues.
Xiangshan could only regretfully conclude that what Yuan Wenren said was true.
Even if these things have some use, they may be one-time only, so there is no need to pay too much attention to them.
So, Xiangshan and his party resumed their original pace and continued to move towards the African continent.
A few days later.
Panike suddenly became very excited and slapped the screen in front of her hard. Although Xiangshan was used to processing image signals directly with his brain, when building these vehicles, Xiangshan took into account that most of the time these things were driven by Yuki, and Yuki still relied heavily on traditional visual senses, so this monitoring screen was retained. Later, when he brought Panike with him, he would occasionally turn on the screen to let the little girl see the scenery outside.
——Of course, he would occasionally play videos downloaded from the Internet.
During the three years of seclusion after obtaining the eighth martial god personality, Xiangshan also found some remaining cultural works of the old era.
The little girl knew when fictional works would be played on this screen and when real scenery outside would be played. And now, she was very excited.
There was a group of constantly changing black shadows diagonally above the vehicle, which looked extremely beautiful under the weak sunlight.
Xiangshan directly connected the video signal to his consciousness. He realized that this might be a huge community of some small creatures. He controlled the vehicle to slowly float up, and at the same time put on prosthetic limbs for underwater action.
Xiangshan huddled in an attached cabin, waiting for the air to be discharged and the seawater to flow in.
Then, he jumped down and fell into the sea.
At the same time, he grabbed the steel cable under the vehicle.
Xiangshan's prosthesis was too heavy. If he let go, he would fall directly into the sea. At the same time, the vehicle would float directly due to the loss of counterweight. In this case, he had to wait for the vehicle to transfer the buoyancy device to Xiangshan's prosthesis. This function must be completed outside the cabin.
Otherwise, Xiangshan's prosthesis would not be able to pass through the hatch at all.
To be honest, this design is quite difficult to use.
If this vehicle is unfortunately blown up. Even if Xiangshan escapes, he can only fall to the bottom of the sea.
Although Xiangshan with a built-in reactor can walk to the African continent by himself, it is too slow and easy to get lost. God knows what the battle situation on the sea will become after he reaches his destination.
Xiangshan pulled the chain, pulled off two hollow metal containers from the external part of the vehicle, and then mounted them on the slots between his waist and back. In this way, his density is close to that of seawater, and he can move by swimming.
Xiangshan changed doors and approached the large mass of darkness above.
At first, it looked like a small mist under the bright blue moonlight. Later, the "moonlight" became brighter and brighter, and people realized that it was actually the sun.
In the dark blue ocean, a large mass of black things was swimming... There were also parts of them that did not move.
It turned out to be a large mass of seaweed suspended on the sea surface like a miniature island. The part suspended on the sea surface would hang down many "branches and leaves" and sway in the sea water.
This seaweed is brightly colored, which is a rare color among the native species on Earth in the past.
Accompanying these things are small fish with a body length of only a few centimeters. The ancestors of these small fish three hundred years ago may be smaller than them. Under the premise that all natural enemies have disappeared, these small things have survived the catastrophe by relying on a large population and have become rare wild animals on this planet.
On land, even cockroaches and mice have disappeared.
"Wow..." Xiangshan was a little dazed.
"This is..." Yuan Wenren's signal came. She had never seen such a thing before, and hesitated, "This is the legendary..."
"Fish." Xiangshan looked at the fish and sighed, "It seems that there are always a few small fish that care..."
"What are you talking about?"
"Just talking to yourself." Xiangshan shook his head and looked at the small fish carefully again.
Most of these fish are of the same species. Xiangshan wanted to tell which species they belonged to, but his animal taxonomy skills were only better than nothing. He could only roughly see that there seemed to be some other fish hidden in the seaweed.
"It's amazing..." Yuan Wenren sighed.
And Liu Ri, who had almost never seen terrestrial plants, was almost speechless.
Xiangshan approached the seaweed carefully. The school of fish immediately avoided this behemoth. Xiangshan stretched out his hand to push away the seaweed. There were indeed some fish in it, all of which were big guys with a body length of nearly ten centimeters.
Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly jumped out.
Xiangshan was startled and almost raised his hand to hit it. It's not his fault that he is nervous. After all, there are no creatures here that are taller than ten centimeters. But if a huge monster over one meter long suddenly jumps out, anyone would be startled.
But fortunately, Xiangshan reacted quickly. The moment he realized that the thing was a creature, he stopped.
The violent current caused by the fist dance tore off several long seaweeds, and scared the small fish away quickly.
And Xiangshan also saw the thing clearly at this time.
It turned out to be a squid... or to be more precise, "a creature that looks like a squid."
The tentacles of this creature were covered with small spines, and it looked a bit fierce. When this thing swam, the small spines on the tentacles caught several small fish. It seems that this should be the way this kind of squid survives.
Xiangshan looked at the squid, and the squid also turned its body and looked at Xiangshan.
"Such a large creature can survive..." Xiangshan sighed.
But suddenly, Xiangshan's heart was alarmed...
No, the senses directly connected to the detector told him that a sonar signal... a vague ultrasonic signal suddenly swept by.
——Is it some kind of radar? I was locked? How is this possible? What is around...
Xiangshan hated the sea water so much. The sea water limited his speed.
Just then, a black shadow flashed in front of him.
A dolphin bit the upper body of the squid and rushed away.
——Dolphin...
Xiangshan tilted his head in the sea water: "Dolphin?"
