Chapter 137: Turned, uh, bumped

The Mariana Trench is located east of the Mariana Islands in the western North Pacific Ocean and is an arc-shaped depression on the ocean floor, extending 2,550 kilometers and with an average width of 69 kilometers.

This is a huge area, and it is not easy to find the snake here, and Lipton Biotechnology Co., Ltd. in the United States can only study this creature by picking up the corpse of the snake that washed ashore on the beach of the Mariana Islands.

The corpses of the snake are not regularly distributed, so it is difficult to guess the location of their habitat in the trench, and it is a test of character to find the snake in the wide Mariana Trench.

The Mariana Trench is different from other trenches I have seen, it is located between the Asian continental plate and the Pacific plate, there is no buffer zone at the edge, and the cliffs are almost walled, cutting deep into the bottom of the sea.

This is not good news for me, there is no gentle slope, it will be difficult for me to carry out the search work on a large area, in the deep sea environment, it is impossible to search continuously without resting, and if you want to rest, you can't go too far from the cliffs on the edge of the trench.

I found a place to put the nylon net first, and I dived into the Mariana Trench for the first time with my weapon.

The first work was to search, and only after finding the traces of the snake could it be possible to use a large fishing net.

As the depth increased, the environment around me began to slowly change, and the noisy sound of the waves slowly faded away, leaving only silence.

Each trench has its own independent ecological environment, and also has its own unique biological population, for the unfamiliar environment, I chose the most secure method, close to the cliff diving,

There are many creatures living on the cliffs, from shellfish that do not move their bodies for life, to large sneak predators.

I don't have the mental detection skills to defend myself, I'm not afraid of being sneak attacked, and the guy who doesn't have long eyes can only be a good meal delivered to the door.

After diving to a depth of 1,500 meters, I began to explore the waters away from the cliffs to see what kind of creatures were living here.

It's dangerous to keep clinging to the cliffs without examining the behavior of the creatures along the way, and it's a nuisance if you encounter a perverted beast while ascending.

The nearby sea area was explored, and only a sperm whale dived underwater, this outsider with the same identity as me obviously did not come for sightseeing, and saw me from a distance, this goods actually rushed towards me, obviously trying to eat me as lunch,

It seems that the rumors are true, sperm whales will dive into the deep sea to prey on mollusks such as squid squid octopus, among which the most famous king squid is estimated to be familiar to everyone.

A threatening skill was thrown over, and the sperm whale stopped its figure that had begun to accelerate, and looked at me a little uncertainly, but he didn't dare to take another step beyond the thunder pool.

It's not that I have good intentions, but if I kill this big guy with a foolish head, it will inevitably attract countless predators, and fresh blood is always the best summoner.

In order not to cause trouble to my work, I smashed two intimidation skills in a row, causing the hesitant sperm whale to turn around and escape.

There are sperm whales here, and it is estimated that there will be no other large creatures in this water.

The creatures in the deep sea are very sensitive, and they will stay away at the slightest stimulus.

The sperm whale came here, as long as it was not besieged, it must have been the nearby creatures that avoided it in advance,

Returning to the vicinity of the cliff, I continued to dive deeper, and the benefits of this were obvious: not only could I anticipate the dangers nearby, but I could also adjust the pressure in my body at any time, and I was always agile and flexible.

Two thousand meters is a watershed, and below it is the real deep sea area, where the creatures have a more bizarre appearance and are more aggressive.

The light has long been unable to shine here, and the depth of two thousand meters is already pitch black.

I don't know how my eyes work, I can see about 10 meters away, but everything is black and white, I don't know if it's because the environment here is like this, or if my eyes have lost some color because of improved vision,

Through spiritual exploration, I can sense that there is a mantis-like giant shrimp guarding there a hundred meters below, and from time to time it is like electricity, using the giant turtle to catch small fish that have come to the cliff to eat seaweed microorganisms.

This guy is four or five meters long, and he is not a powerful character at this depth, so he can only hide on the cliff and wait for the rabbit.

Staying in the deep sea for a long time has also given me a certain understanding of the biological habits in this environment.

Generally speaking, the really sturdy beasts will not get too close to cliffs, slopes and the like, because there is no suitable food for them, and they are prone to running aground.

This is not a joke, no matter how perverted their eyesight and perception are of creatures in the deep sea, they are not as convenient as the observation environment of creatures running in the sun.

The large size means that the inertia is large, and even if you find an obstacle in front of you when you swim quickly, you can't dodge it.

Unless they are hungry, the beasts will approach the cliffs and slopes to prey on fish that feed on microorganisms and algae and small creatures.

These fish are generally not too large in size, and can only stuff the teeth of the giant beasts.

The giant shrimp obviously noticed my presence, and after 0.5 seconds, the guy honestly curled up his body and hid in a small hole that was not deep.

The cruel living environment makes the creatures here chase after them as long as they find their prey, and the giant shrimp knows that as long as they escape, they will only be left with the fate of being eaten.

I didn't embarrass this fellow, before I came down, I was full, so that I wouldn't have to make a mistake because of predation.

Compared to the Japanese Trench and the Manila Trench that I have explored before, the Mariana Trench is deeper and more expansive, and the number of creatures is definitely more abundant, so my idea is to fight a protracted war, and only after I am familiar with it, I dare to laugh at will at the bottom of the sea.

Three thousand meters away, I came across a group of largemouth anglerfish, these ugly guys had their mouths full of fangs, their bodies covered with strange hair-like spikes, and their tails were like erected strings, full of spikes longer than their bodies.

This group of guys lives on small fish, and being able to touch them is enough to prove that there are lively waters nearby,

Sure enough, when I was exploring at this depth level, I also saw a group of small transparent fish that were only five or six centimeters long, this little guy who lives on nutrients in the filtered water, is like a deep-sea filter, the water quality is exceptionally clean in the waters where they have stopped, it is said that this little guy can digest almost all organic matter, shipwrecks and wood and the like are all out of the question, easy to feed very much,

The harsh environment in the deep sea makes these fish at the bottom of the biological chain desperately strengthen one of their organs, and only in this way can they continue to reproduce.

The liveliness of this sea area has also attracted other creatures that rely on preying on small fish.

Throat fish, this kind of fish is found in many deep-sea areas, it is a deep-sea fish with a wide distribution, this guy is very sensitive and timid, and it is very difficult to catch.

Even in the deep sea, the throated fish is the most ugly kind, but the appearance of this product is usually difficult to be noticed, because its entire black body is covered with luminous devices, there is such a deep-sea predator, the small fish will take the initiative to come to it, this thing is also yin enough, the mouth has been open from morning to night, and it can be eaten full every day.

In the face of a huge monster like me, the school of transparent small fish will not care at all, and will even swim back and forth around me, and the more daring ones will pounce on my body and peck at me, eating bacteria and aging dead skin.

The hunters who prey on these small fish panicked, generally speaking, when they encounter a giant beast of my size, whether they eat them or not, these guys who were supposed to hold a gluttonous feast here quickly swam away one by one and hid in the dark deep sea,

There are small fish, there are medium-sized fish, and they are followed by small predators.

A deep-sea shark with a body length of seven or eight meters swam over and casually devoured the throated fish and largemouth anglerfish that had not yet escaped.

If I'm not mistaken, this one came after the group of largemouth anglerfish I just met.

When this reckless guy leaned over with his head and tail, and saw the huge me, he was instantly frightened and fled down at a very fast speed.

I was not moved at all, just enjoying the kissing service of transparent fish with peace of mind,

As a result, the deep-sea shark escaped too fast, clanged, and crashed into the cliff.
