Chapter 3055 Traveling to the Bottom of the Lake
As Ye Tian expected, as soon as the three of them entered the water, those Nile crocodiles cruising nearby noticed the movement here and swam over quickly.
Seeing these ferocious guys approaching, Ye Tian immediately said:
"Peter, Charlie, be vigilant, don't take the initiative to launch an attack, let me deal with these guys first, and see if I can subdue them, so as to save a lot of fighting.
If you can't subdue these guys, once they take the initiative to attack, then launch a counterattack, kill these guys directly, and never let them destroy wantonly."
"Got it, Steven"
Peter and Charlie answered in unison, spearguns gripped, ready.
In the blink of an eye, those Nile crocodiles had already swam close.
Because they were very close to the water, Ye Tian and the others did not turn on the searchlights, which caused less irritation to the Nile crocodiles.
Those hideous-looking guys did not attack immediately, but swam around the iron cage, looking at the big iron cage and the few strange guys inside.
At the same time, the iron cage was still slowly diving.
Ye Tian, who was staying in the iron cage, looked at the largest Nile crocodile.
The body length of this Nile crocodile is close to five meters. It is a huge monster with extremely powerful attack power.
Ye Tian stared at the head of this Nile crocodile, secretly activated the perspective ability, released a ray of spiritual energy, and poured it into this Nile crocodile.
In the next instant, he had a thorough look at the Nile crocodile without missing anything.
In the mouth of this Nile crocodile, he saw huge and sharp teeth, and in the stomach of this guy, he saw the remains of some animals, mainly fish.
Through this guy's muscles and bones, he also saw this guy's huge attack and destructive power.
This Nile crocodile has a very sensitive response. As soon as Ye Tian started to see through, it felt the refreshing aura.
And it quickly determined the direction from which the aura was coming from, and walked straight towards Ye Tianyou.
Seeing this big guy coming, Peter and Charlie were a little nervous.
Ye Tian said in a low voice:
"guys,
Take it easy, this big guy doesn't seem to be malicious! "
As he said, the nearly five-meter-long Nile crocodile swam close, but did not attack, but looked curiously at Ye Tian who was standing in the cage.
The next moment, Ye Tian suddenly stretched out his left hand, stuck out the iron cage, and touched the snout of this giant Nile crocodile.
"ah!"
In the cabin of the engineering ship on the lake, there was an exclamation immediately.
Without exception, everyone was taken aback by Ye Tian's bold move.
While exclaiming incessantly, everyone's hearts were in their throats, lest the giant Nile crocodile suddenly attack and bite off Ye Tian's left hand.
However, such a scene did not happen.
Under the eyes of everyone, Ye Tian's left hand touched the snout of the giant Nile crocodile, and stroked it a few times.
The giant Nile crocodile shook its head at first, seeming to resist.
But immediately after, it began to rub Ye Tian's palm with its kiss, acting very docile, not a bit like the overlord in the lake.
Seeing this scene, those guys staying on the lake were all dumbfounded.
"Wow! What the hell did I see? Is this really the notorious Nile crocodile? It can't be Steven's pet in Lake Tana, right?"
"I can't believe that the cruel and cold-blooded Nile crocodile can be so close to humans. It seems that the legend is true. Steven can communicate with any animal and become friends with them!"
Just when everyone was exclaiming, Ye Tian patted the giant Nile crocodile lightly, and then withdrew his left hand.
Immediately afterwards, he looked at another smaller Nile crocodile, and repeated the same trick.
Not surprisingly, the Nile crocodile also behaved very docilely, interacting with him through the iron cage.
This scene of harmony between the man and the crocodile shocked everyone again and caused a lot of exclamations.
Next, such good shows continued to be staged, refreshing everyone's perception time and time again.
After a while, these Nile crocodiles were all subdued by Ye Tian, and they dived with him.
At this time, these seemingly ferocious Nile crocodiles are no longer enemies, but friends.
They slowly swam around the iron cage, protecting Ye Tian and the others, and directly transformed into a group of sturdy underwater bodyguards.
The only bad thing is that because of their existence, other creatures in the lake dare not approach the iron cage.
This made Ye Tian and the others miss a lot of beautiful scenery in the lake, which is somewhat regrettable.
After a while, the iron cage dived to a depth of about 25 meters in the lake.
Ye Tian withdrew his hand from the snout of a Nile crocodile, and then said through the intercom system in the diving mask:
"Guys, temporarily stop releasing the sling. We need to stay at this depth for a while to adapt to the water pressure. After five minutes, release the sling and continue diving!"
"Got it, Steven"
The exploration team manipulating the crane responded.
The next moment, the iron cage was suspended at a depth of about 25 meters in the lake.
The light here is quite dim, and visibility has dropped a lot.
Seeing this situation, Ye Tian comforted the Nile crocodiles first, and then told Charlie and Peter to turn on the underwater lights inside the iron cage.
In a blink of an eye, several strong lights came on, dispelling the darkness and bringing light to the lake.
The lighting of these bright lights inevitably startled the Nile crocodiles.
Under the stress reaction, those big guys all swam out quickly, somewhat agitated.
Good Ye Tian made a timely move and quickly regained control of those guys without any accidents.
Some fish swimming in the lake a little farther away were also startled by the sudden light, and swam quickly to the lake shrouded in darkness in the distance.
After a while, the Nile crocodiles and various fish got used to the light, and then they swam back and continued to swim around the iron cage.
Soon, five minutes passed.
Ye Tian and the others have adapted to the water pressure at this depth, and immediately issued an order to let the exploration team on the lake release the sling again and continue diving.
Immediately afterwards, the strong iron cage took Ye Tian and the others and a lot of exploration equipment, and began to dive again, going straight to the depths of the lake.
They dived another ten meters. Due to the change in water pressure, those Nile crocodiles could no longer follow Ye Tian and the others to dive.
Those big guys had to leave and swim to the water above.
When they left, each of them showed reluctance, looking back at Ye Tian step by step.
Looking at this scene, everyone in the cabin couldn't help being amazed.
Together with Ye Tian, Peter and Charlie, who were standing in the iron cage, behaved much calmer.
They have seen such a scene many times, and they are used to it!
After the ferocious Nile crocodiles left, a large school of fish that had been hiding in the distance immediately swam towards the iron cage.
At this time, the iron cage was like a bright lamp hanging alone in the darkness, attracting the attention of almost all the creatures in the lake around, attracting them all.
After a while, the glowing iron cage was surrounded by various fishes, big and small.
These guys are swimming and playing around the iron cage, and they are very happy.
When they found that the three strange guys in the iron cage were not threatening, they immediately swam into the cage, swimming around Ye Tian and the three of them quickly.
Ye Tian and the others did not drive these guys away, but stood inside the iron cage, admiring the beautiful scenery in the lake.
Soon, they dived to a depth of fifty meters in the lake.
It is already dark here, except for some crustaceans, there is only endless lake water.
The beautiful fish that had played around the iron cage before had all left, and the surroundings of the iron cage suddenly became much quieter.
After reaching this depth, Ye Tian issued another order.
Stop diving and suspend at this depth to adapt to changes in water pressure.
Because of this depth, they also spent a longer decompression stop here, reaching eight minutes.
During these eight minutes, the three of them could only stay in the iron cage obediently, admiring the creatures in the lake attracted by the lights.
And in the eyes of those creatures in the lake, they are not the objects to be visited.
They seem to be a little more pitiful, trapped in an iron cage.
After completing the decompression stop and adapting to the water pressure at this depth, the iron cage began to dive again.
As the depth of the dive got deeper and deeper, the surroundings of the iron cage became darker and darker.
The creatures living in the lake below the depth of fifty meters have become increasingly rare.
During the next dive, except for a few crustaceans, Ye Tian and the others hardly encountered any other creatures, and the whole dive was extremely quiet.
Then they dived for more than 30 meters, Ye Tian and the others finally reached the bottom of the lake, and came to the obliquely above the sunken ship at the bottom of the lake.
As the sunken ship appeared on the big-screen TV, there was a burst of cheers in the cabin on the lake.
"Great! Steven and the others have finally reached the bottom of the lake. What treasures are hidden in this sunken ship from World War II? It's so exciting!"
"Wow! This is really an amazing deep-diving exploration. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to dive into this dark world even if I was killed!"
Just as everyone was cheering, Ye Tian's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Guys, stop releasing the sling and temporarily suspend the iron cage at this depth. Let's go down and explore first to see the terrain at the bottom of the lake.
We will find a flat place, clean up those algae plants, and then let the iron cage land on the bottom of the lake to provide support for follow-up operations”
"Got it, Steven"
The exploration team manipulating the crane replied.
Immediately afterwards, the iron cage stopped diving and floated above the sunken ship at the bottom of the lake.
After the iron cage came to a stillness, Ye Tian and Peter opened the gate at the top of the iron cage and swam out from the solid iron cage.
After coming outside, the three of them immediately activated the diving thrusters.
The next moment, three beams of strong light shot out from the front of the three submersible thrusters, tearing through the darkness like a sharp sword, and shooting straight to the bottom of the lake.
Afterwards, Ye Tian and the others, driven by the diving propeller, swam to the bottom of the lake seven or eight meters below.
Presented on the big TV screen, they are like three big black fishes swimming freely in the bottom of the lake shrouded in darkness.
Seeing these pictures, there was another exclamation in the cabin on the lake.
Without exception, every voice was full of envy and admiration.
Who doesn't want to swim under the sea and fly in the sky, how many people can actually do it?
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the three of them were close to the bottom of the lake.
The dense algae plants at the bottom of the lake are close in sight, swaying gently in the lake water.
"Peter, Charlie, you stay here first, don't dive into the bottom of the lake. I'll go to the bottom of the lake to see if there is any danger. Come down again and stay on guard to prevent being attacked by creatures hidden at the bottom of the lake."
Ye Tian spoke through the walkie-talkie in the diving mask and gestured.
"Understood, Steven, we'll be careful"
Peter responded, and Charlie responded.
Then, they were suspended at a depth of about three meters from the bottom of the lake.
With the help of submersible thrusters, they will not consume too much energy when suspended at this depth.
Next, Ye Tian swam to the bottom of the lake with the diving propeller in one hand and the speargun in the other.
During the dive, he skillfully avoided the algae plants swaying in the lake water and reached the bottom of the lake.
The depth here is close to ninety meters, and apart from algae and some crustaceans, there are no other living things, and there is no danger.
Of course, it is possible that they did not come across it, or did not discover it.
In fact, Ye Tian already knew whether it was dangerous or not.
What he is doing now is just acting, just to make everything look more reasonable.
After swimming to the bottom of the lake, he chose a relatively flat area to land.
After landing, he used the searchlight of the submersible thruster to quickly observe the surrounding situation.
This location is less than ten meters away from the sunken ship at the bottom of the lake, which is just right for everyone to settle down, as a base and supply station at the bottom of the lake.
After confirming that there was no danger, he notified Peter and Charlie to come down.
When these two guys came down, the three of them immediately pulled out their diving knives and began to clean up the algae in this area.
After a while, the area was cleared out into an open space.
The algae plants that were cut off by them floated to the surface of the lake.
Immediately afterwards, Charlie and Peter swam to the iron cage above. With the cooperation of the lake surface exploration team, they pulled the iron cage to the bottom of the lake and placed it on the cleared open space at the bottom of the lake.
After placing the iron cage, Ye Tian and the others took a short rest, and then swam to the sunken ship not far away.
For safety reasons, they first circled the sunken ship to determine its posture, stability and so on.
The result was not bad. Since the bottom of the lake was relatively flat, the shipwreck basically remained in its original shape, and it did not break or buckle upside down at the bottom of the lake.
During the exploration, Ye Tian and the others found two large holes in the bottom of the ship.
Judging from the rupture of the two large holes, it should be man-made, and it was formed by blasting from the cabin to the outside.
The discovery of these two large holes is enough to show that this is the treasure ship that everyone is looking for.
Moreover, the ship was artificially sunk by the Italians, and the evidence is beyond doubt.
As for whether there is treasure in this sunken ship, it is temporarily unknown!
Although this result had been expected for a long time, when Ye Tian expressed his judgment, everyone was still very excited and immediately cheered.
Mustafa, in particular, danced with excitement.
After some celebration, Ye Tian and the others swam to the top of the sunken ship, ready to start exploring from the main deck, searching layer by layer to see if they could find any treasure.
This treasure ship, which has been sleeping at the bottom of the dark lake for more than 70 years, has long been rusted and covered with algae, like a small island at the bottom of the lake.
Fortunately, this is a freshwater lake, the hull of the ship is not seriously eroded, and it is still relatively strong.
In this way, it is relatively safer when entering the ship to explore.
After coming to the top of the hull, Ye Tian observed the situation first, and then said through the walkie-talkie:
"Charlie, Peter, you are suspended above the deck first, I will go down to check the situation and prevent the Italians from setting any traps on the deck, and you will come down after you are sure it is safe."
After speaking, he swam to the deck below.
Peter and the others floated on the deck.
