Chapter 647 A Wonder Comes (5K)

"Mariana Trench!"

Hearing this news, the surrounding experts were slightly stunned. This is the deepest trench in the world, with the deepest point exceeding 10,000 meters, and it is also very famous in the world.

The joy on Viola's face had not faded. When she heard about this area, her face couldn't help but become a little more solemn, and she asked repeatedly: "Can our Challenger submarine be able to penetrate deep into the Mariana Trench?"

"Yes, Professor Viola, the Challenger submarine we prepared is the most advanced submarine in the United States. This model is capable of penetrating into the ocean to a depth of 10,000 meters."

Eller answered from the side. In order to find out the cause of the emergence of mutated sea monsters in this scientific research, the beautiful country has invested a lot of money.

Not only top scholars and experts from all over the world are invited, but all kinds of equipment are also of the highest quality.

For example, the Challenger submersible equipped on a scientific research ship costs hundreds of millions of dollars to build, and the beautiful country also allocated it to the scientific research ship without hesitation.

"That's good!"

Viola breathed a sigh of relief, because at this time, the tracked sea monster had dived into the deep sea area of ​​7,000 meters, and was continuing to dive.

This depth has exceeded the limit of most conventional deep submersibles. If the tracking fails due to the equipment, Viola will regret it for the rest of her life.

8000!

9000!

10,000 meters!

"The baitfish dived to the bottom of the Mariana Trench and the fish stopped in this area."

When the sea monster being tracked stopped at a depth of 10,000 meters, as expected, the sea monster's ultimate destination was the Mariana Trench.

"Act quickly and prepare the Challenger submersible. Let's find the location of this sea monster."

Olvera ordered excitedly, and everyone took action.

The 10,000-meter deep sea has exceeded the detection range of sonar. Only by lowering the deep submersible in this place and taking real-time photography can we find out what is on the seabed that attracted this sea monster to come here after traveling thousands of miles away.

Amidst the intense busyness, a crane placed a ten-meter-long deep submersible on the side of the scientific research ship. The name of the Challenger was engraved on the surface of the deep submersible.

This is a manned deep submersible. It was originally developed and built by the international director Cuarón in order to shoot a science fiction movie. In the end, the director personally drove this deep submersible down to a depth of 10,000 meters. The purpose is to shoot material and collect inspiration for the film.

Later, this deep submersible technology was favored by the military of the United States. After iterative development in the hands of the United States, the technology became more mature and used to record seafloor currents and geology in global waters.

Next to the Challenger submersible, a black man and a blond woman were warming up and putting on special carrier suits. They were the pilots of the Challenger submersible.

"Barnes, Keilana, the task is left to you. This operation is related to the future development of our beautiful country. As long as effective information is successfully captured, the country will not treat you badly."

Elle walked forward with serious words and hugged the two of them.

"Colonel Ayler, there is absolutely no problem. We are the best deep-diving pilots and we will definitely find the trace of that sea monster for you."

Barnes, a black man, bent his arms to show off his majestic biceps, smiled brightly, his big white teeth shining in the sun, and his face was full of confidence.

"I have the same idea as my partner. We are not rookies who have dived into the deep sea for the first time. After working with Barnes, the two of us have performed more than 32 deep-sea dive missions and have never had any problems."

Keilana hugged Barnes with one arm and Elle with the other, making a scissor hand gesture: "Come on, everyone smile."

In front of me, someone was holding a camera, taking pictures and recording this scene. In the future, this might be a new chapter in the rise of the beautiful country, which is of profound significance.

"Haha, it seems that our awesome guys and beauties are very popular. I believe you can do it."

Viola laughed heartily and walked over happily.

With a clicking sound, the camera shutter was pressed. With the blue sky, sea and Challenger submersible as the background, the four people stood together and were perfectly recorded by the camera.

Immediately afterwards, Barnes and Keilana neatly climbed onto the Challenger submersible. In the eyes of everyone on the scientific research ship, they waved and got into the cabin.

"Challenger deep submersible self-inspection!"

"The casing is intact and has no leaks, and the engine and propeller are in trial operation."

"Every instrument panel is turned on normally, the oxygen reserve is 100%, and there is no interference in the communication channel."

After a series of inspections, it was confirmed that everything on the Challenger was normal. The crane slowly released the fixed hook and allowed the Challenger submersible to sink into the sea.

Gulu!

Waves hit the Challenger, and as the air inside the boat was exhausted, the Challenger began to sink into the sea.

100 meters!

500 meters!

2000 meters!

On the scientific research ship, Olvera, Eller and others have returned to the command room. Through the screen here, they can connect to the camera on the Challenger and observe the situation outside and inside the Challenger.

As the depth of the dive increases, Challenger's speed gradually decreases.

At first, various fish can be seen in the sea water, but as the depth drops, the fish gradually become sparse, and even the visibility drops greatly, because the sun's rays cannot penetrate into such deep sea areas.

After entering five thousand meters, the sea water has become pitch black, and the sun's rays cannot reach it.

The Challenger turned on the searchlight on the boat, like a sea beast with its eyes open, and continued to dive deeper into the sea.

6,000 meters!

8,000 meters!

10,000 meters!

When the Challenger arrived at the 10,000-meter deep sea, everyone's heart was lifted up, staring at the screen without blinking, for fear of missing any key information.

"Report, we have arrived at the 10,000-meter deep sea, everything is going well."

Barnes faced the camera and raised a thumb. He knew that at this time, dozens of people on the research ship were staring at him.

"Life detector turned on, seawater detector turned on, topographic map simulation generated, third gear speed sailing, current position is 10,500 meters deep sea, please instruct."

Kailana held the joystick, reported the data indicators one by one, and drove the Challenger slowly in the quiet and dark deep sea.

"The bait fish is about 12 kilometers away at 3 o'clock. Keep the current speed and drive at the lowest speed. Don't make any noise to avoid the attack of the sea monster."

Ovira gave the order. The more at this time, the more mistakes cannot be made.

"Understood."

Kaylana nodded and drove the Challenger slowly forward at the lowest speed. The Challenger's reserve power and oxygen can stay in the deep sea for three hours at a depth of 10,000 meters.

As the Challenger moved forward, the scenery of the Mariana Trench was also transmitted to the research ship.

The cold and silent seabed, with no trace of life, and the rugged and weird stone walls and gullies everywhere, like a wrinkled old man's face, constitute this life restricted area.

It takes great courage to move in this place.

Fortunately, the two people on the Challenger are experienced and drive the Challenger steadily to sail under the deep sea of ​​10,000 meters.

"The bait fish is still 18 kilometers away from you!"

"There are still 16 kilometers left, keep up the speed."

"Ten kilometers, reduce the brightness of the searchlight, don't stimulate the bait fish."

The instructions of the scientific research ship kept coming, and the Challenger was getting closer and closer to the bait fish. In order to avoid alarming the sea monster being tracked, the Challenger kept driving at a low speed and even the searchlight was adjusted to the lowest.

After all, as a scientific research submersible, the Challenger did not carry any weapons. Once it attracted the attention of the sea monster and was attacked, there was only one way to die waiting for them under the ten thousand meter deep sea.

When the Challenger was ten kilometers away from the tracking sea monster, suddenly, a light came from the front.

The light was bright, with some light purple, like a thin layer of purple mist.

"Where did the light come from? Did the submarine volcano erupt?"

Barnes and Kailana were both shocked at the same time. The ten thousand meter deep sea was pitch black. Except for the lava erupted by the submarine volcano, there would be light here.

"No, it's not an underwater volcano, it's something else."

On the research ship, Olvera ejected and stood up, his eyes shining. As a top ocean expert, he knew that the light from the eruption of an underwater volcano was not this color.

"Could it be some kind of luminous fish?"

"Impossible, the range is too large."

"It could also be some kind of luminous plant."

"This is a 10,000-meter deep sea, a life forbidden zone, where can any plant survive."

Experts and scholars also widened their eyes and gathered together for a heated discussion.

"Keep going, be careful."

Ovila gave the order, staring at the screen without blinking, his curiosity had reached its peak.

The Challenger sailed at a low speed, and as the distance got closer, the light became hotter and hotter, illuminating the seabed, as if there was a small sun sinking into the seabed in front of it.

Gradually, when the Challenger advanced another two kilometers, the light changed again, and the colorful halo penetrated the sea water, making the cold and dark sea water beautiful.

And the scene in front of it also completely entered the Challenger's field of vision.

A perfect version at 1619 Book Bar!

"Oh my God! What the hell is this, an underwater garden?"

His body trembled as if he had received an electric shock. Barnes opened his mouth so wide that he could stuff an apple into it, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"I shouldn't be hallucinating, Barnes, hit me."

Kailana's pupils trembled until Barnes pinched her arm hard. The clear pain told her that she was not dreaming, nor was she trapped in a deep-sea illusion. What she saw was real.

Because in their sight, there appeared an island that should not be here, a majestic island suspended above the seabed.

The first thing that caught their eyes was a stone tablet erected in the center of the island.

The stone tablet was hundreds of meters high, like a magic sword inserted into the island. It was black and white, and engraved with dense ancient runes. These runes were also flowing slowly like water.

It was also the colorful cold light emitted by this stone tablet that formed the source of the light on the seabed.

In the island area directly in front of the Challenger, there are all kinds of strange plants and spiritual roots growing on the island, there are golden grasses exuding fragrance, there are sweet springs flowing, and there are towering ancient trees, the smallest of which is a hundred meters high.

In addition, you can see palaces with glazed tile roofs and golden splendor located around the island, which makes people clearly understand that this is not a natural wonder, but a man-made creation.

Barnes and Kailana were completely stunned. They expected to encounter many situations in the deep sea, but they didn't expect to see such an island and such a wonder here.

It was not just the two of them who were shocked. The experts and scholars who saw this scene on the scientific research ship were also shocked as if they were under a restraining spell. All kinds of words such as Omaika, Fake, God, etc. kept coming from their mouths. Biao Chu's usual elegant and easy-going personality was completely gone.

"What the hell is this?"

Elle patted his face, trying to wake up, but everything in front of him told him that he had really seen a miracle, a miracle that happened before his eyes.

In the 10,000-meter-deep sea, there is actually such an island, an island with all kinds of exotic vegetation, full of vitality, and densely populated with buildings.

If everything here is exposed, it will definitely shock the world's attention.

Olvera was the first to react. He waved his arms with enthusiasm and said ecstatically: "Haha, it seems that we have arrived at the lair of sea monsters. I am sure that the reason why those sea monsters mutated has nothing to do with this island. Regardless, what we discovered today will definitely shock the world.”

Olvera's body was trembling slightly because he was so excited. What he was thinking about was not only world-famous, but what excited him even more was the fact that such an island, with all kinds of life that could survive in the 10,000-meter-deep sea, simply overturned his past experience. All research is more deadly to a scholar than gold and diamonds.

"That stone tablet is full of runes, and the runes can still glow and flow. It's unbelievable. It's really unbelievable. Who built this?"

"Is there really an alien civilization visiting Blue Star? Otherwise, I can't think of what kind of technology can create such an island in the deep sea."

"Get closer, get closer, we can't see clearly yet!"

The experts were shouting excitedly and forgot about everything. The current discovery alone made everyone feel that their trip was worthwhile.

"Barnes, Keilana, you control the Challenger to enter that island."

Olvera can't wait to go to the sea to see that miraculous island in person, but now she can only satisfy her curiosity through the screen and command the Challenger.

"Copy that, move on."

"God bless us."

Barnes and Keilana looked at each other, pushed the joystick, and the Challenger's propellers turned, slowly driving to the island ahead.

When they arrived here, the two of them discovered that the island was larger than it looked from a distance, with a diameter of at least fifteen kilometers. They couldn't see the whole thing clearly.

Because the distance was shortened, the Challenger was able to view everything on the island more carefully.

In addition to all kinds of rare and rare plants on the island, palaces and towers are hidden among them, and there are thousands of precious lights permeating the island.

"Hou Li Crab, is that a sword? Isn't it some kind of magical weapon?"

Barnes pointed to the left, where there was a long sword stuck upside down on the tree trunk. The sword body showed dragon scale patterns. The surrounding seawater was stirred into a cavity. From time to time, a sword energy was activated, penetrating through the seawater. Hundreds of meters away.

The sea water that the sword energy passed through spread out, and it took several seconds for it to close together, just like the legendary magic weapon that cut off the river with one sword.

"Then it's even more powerful over there, please look at it, Barnes?"

Keilana tugged on Barnes's ear and pointed in her direction.

There, there is a large ancient bell hanging in the sea.

The big bell is one foot high, exuding an ancient atmosphere. The vast sound of Taoism echoes every inch, and the earth is shaken with spider web-like cracks. Purple-black lightning is constantly swept out from the bell body, making the sea water boiling in a radius of dozens of meters. state.

On this island, as far as the two men can see, there are dozens of magic weapons lying here. Spears are like forests, halberds are like sea, swords are like waterfalls, and axes are like mountains. Every weapon is clanking. It reveals a powerful power invisibly, which is impossible to ignore.

Neither of them dared to get close and drove the Challenger far away. Otherwise, if their Challenger was hit by these magic soldiers and had a gap and leaked water, they would have no hope of escaping in this 10,000-meter-deep sea. , die without a burial place.

Such a scene was also seen by the scientific research ship, and an even more intense debate immediately broke out.

"Atlantis, this is the legendary Atlantis civilization that sank into the sea. This ancient super civilization mastered technology far beyond modern times. Only then could they create such a miraculous island, those buildings and weapons, It must have been the home and weapons of the Atlanteans."

A blond European and American scholar roared. He is a Western historian. When he saw this deep-sea island with exquisite palace buildings, magical plants, and powerful magic weapons, the name Atlantis immediately came to mind. A legendary super-ancient civilization that sank to the bottom of the sea.

"Shit, open your eyes wide. How can this be Atlantis? This is clearly the legendary Penglai Island. Those jade towers and weapons are all the decorations and characteristics of our East Asian side. , as long as you have a little bit of common sense, you can see that the island in front of you completely fits the description of Penglai Immortal Island."

Another Sakura Kingdom history scholar couldn't help but refute and even cursed.

Countries in Asia are all influenced by Chinese culture. As a top historical scholar, he is not only familiar with the history of Sakura Country, but also deeply involved in Chinese culture and history.

After all, when studying the history of Sakura Kingdom, you can never avoid Hua Kingdom. This can be seen from the inheritance of Sakura Kingdom characters. Many Sakura Kingdom characters are exactly the same as Chinese characters.

That's why this Cherry Blossom Country historian is so excited. This is the Penglai Island, a legendary existence that can't be compared to Atlantis.

"Penglai Fairy Island? Is this an ancient city in East Asia?"

Ailer looked at the Sakura Country historian. He really didn't know what it was.

"Penglai Fairy Island is one of the three immortal mountains on the sea. Legend has it that this is the residence of immortals. It is floating in the sea by auspicious clouds, and the elixir of immortality is planted on it. The most famous emperor of China in history once sent people to look for Penglai Fairy Island, hoping to find the elixir of immortality and rule China forever for all eternity."

When the Sakura Country scholar mentioned the elixir of immortality, the eyes of scholars and experts at the scene widened, and they subconsciously looked at the various rare and exotic herbs on the deep-sea island.

Ailer's breathing was even heavier, and there was only one thought left in his mind.

That is, this island, whether it is the legendary Atlantis or Penglai Fairy Island, they must get it in their beautiful country. This will be their sacred and indivisible territory. (End of this chapter)
