Chapter 159: Underwater Corals

Mo Fan's eyes stared at Zhao Xuehai without blinking, his eyes were full of sincerity and sincerity...... And the prayer to sell moe?

Damn!

Zhao Xuehai had goosebumps all over his body.

This guy must know something. Did the old man tell Mo Fan?

It is estimated that it is, and when he hunted an octopus monster in Antarctic waters, Zhao Xuehai chatted with the old man at home. But this is a matter of secrecy, so as not to cause panic in society......

"Octopus, didn't you hunt one? It came to the ocean, that's right. Zhao Xuehai pretended to be confused, looked at the slightly rippling sea, and prepared to go back to the cabin.

Mo Fan hurriedly grabbed his father-in-law-to-be: "Can't we have a good talk?"

"Something that violates discipline, can't be said. Zhao Xuehai said lightly.

"Uncle, the octopus monster I hunted is 3,500 tons, and its eight tentacles are spread out and occupy an area of five to six football fields. My yacht is 225 meters long, and if I encounter an octopus monster, I don't know if I can carry it. Mo Fan said sincerely.

Zhao Xuehai was stunned, he knew that there was an octopus monster in Tahiti, and he was killed by Mo Fan and them, but he didn't know the specific information of the octopus monster.

"Are you sure?"

"The octopus's corpse is over there. Mo Fan pointed to the fishing port dock opposite: "The two largest warehouses are piled up. ”

Zhao Xuehai looked left and right, there was no one around, and said, "You promise not to say it." ”

"I promise. ”

"It was about a month ago. The Liaoyuan pelagic fishing vessel was operating in the Gulf of Seipur in the Antarctic waters and caught a giant octopus that I heard was of the same species as the octopus monster that appeared in Tahiti...... The Antarctic giant octopus weighs about 10 tons, which is a far cry from the 3,500 tons you said. Zhao Xuehai said and helped his eyes: "You didn't fool me." ”

"You can ask Professor Zhao if he has seen the research materials of the octopus monster. Mo Fan shrugged.

"3,500 tons?" Zhao Xuehai thought hard, and was inexplicably frightened.

The 50-ton Antarctic giant octopus, he saw it in person, and he felt particularly terrifying. However, the 3,500-ton octopus monster is not capable of turning the world upside down in the sea, and the world's largest blue whale is probably its food: "How did you kill it?"

"Secret. ”

"Damn!" Zhao Xuehai's face was strange: "Said a good family." ”

"Hit it with a steamer. Mo Fan blinked.

Zhao Xuehai was speechless...... Don't say it.

The yacht continues to accelerate to cruising speed, and the bow of the boat hits the surface of the sea and sets off waves several meters high. The stern of the boat with no end in sight......

The sailors on board did their duty. In the lobby, which can accommodate dozens of large orchestras, nine professors and professorial assistants are studying a map of the sea that they have obtained from unknown sources, showing more than a dozen islands and reefs that do not appear on the official map. These rocks that are exposed to the sea are as large as thousands of square meters and as small as a dozen square meters, and are called the peaks that expose the sea.

At a speed of 23 knots, it can run 1,000 kilometers a day.

At noon the next day, the Xinghai arrived near the South Island, did not dock, Mo Fan saw Zhao Xuehai leave by helicopter, waited for the helicopter to return, continued to set sail, and arrived in the Bath Islands in the evening.

This is a volcanic archipelago that is part of the sunken mountain system in the south-central Pacific Ocean. If there is no seawater, there are rolling mountains and valleys under the yacht, and the terrain of the submarine mountains is complex and varied, and the mountains are huge.

"Mo, we are going to choose an anchorage tomorrow morning, take a dinghy, and use drones for aerial photography. Professor Antonic said: "The aerial photography work is in charge of me and Professor Mooro. ”

"Well, stay safe. Mo Fan looked at tomorrow's action plan and nodded.

Professor Matt pulled Professor Zhao along: "We are going to go to Hookster Island, there is a Maori synagogue on the island, which has been abandoned for more than two hundred years, and we are going to go up and have a look." By the way, record the ecological ...... of the island This is an agreement signed by the University of Papeete, and many of the islands behind it have to be ecologically recorded. ”

"No problem. ”

Hookster Island is the largest island in the Bath Islands, and here, once inhabited, is no longer there. As for the reason, that is, the colonial tyranny of the past...... There are no gold or other important mines on the island, but there is a trench in the middle of the island that is rich in red coral.

Red coral is an organic gemstone with a pleasant color and a lustrous texture, and it generally grows in the deep sea between 100 and 2,000 meters away from humans. Along with pearls and amber, they are one of the three major organic gemstones. The red coral of Hookster Island is notoriously good, and it can be found at a depth of more than ten meters.

Westerners believe that red coral has the ability to prevent disasters, give wisdom, and have the function of stopping bleeding and repelling heat. The red coral here has caused a sensation when it was once sent to Europe......

This type of red coral is also not found in the local area and is very rare. Because of the large-scale bloodshed of red coral, after that, the inhabitants of the southern islands called red coral blood coral, the meaning of which is unknown......

In short, the island is no longer inhabited. The nearby dozen or so islands are uninhabited and uninhabited, but there are many archaeological sites on the islands......

Mo Fan looked at the materials compiled by the professors, including some materials on the bottom of the sea. Due to historical issues, this is an ocean that is not allowed to be exploited, even though there is a large treasure 'red coral' on the bottom of the sea.

Mo Fan took the materials back to the room, and at night, after the professor fell asleep, he went to the bottom of the sea alone, got Xiaomo out and swam in the deep sea.

The telekinesis probes out, the seabed crisscrosses the mountains, there are mountains and valleys, the fish resources are abundant, and all kinds of corals look fantastic on both sides of the submarine valley.

But apart from these beautiful corals, Mo Fan didn't find anything special.

Led by Xiao Mo, Mo Fan hid in the space bead, occasionally collected some beautiful corals, and returned to the yacht after three o'clock in the middle of the night.

Freshly harvested corals don't look so beautiful, with other things attached to them that need to be polished to make a beautiful work of art.

When he went back to the master bedroom of the ship's owner's cabin, Mo Fan took out a few corals that were more than one person tall and intertwined. The heavier the coral, the more valuable it is, and these are the corals that achieve organic gemstone quality......

There are a total of 22 plants, and there are colors such as crimson, pink, flesh red, pink, and milky white. There are fine products, and there are also more ordinary corals.

"The ocean, what a treasure. Mo Fan put away the coral, and entered the space with a thought: "Xiaobai!"

Xiaobai is still busy with its energy battery, and it is estimated that it will take another month to produce the first battery, which is also the battery that Xiaobai needs to replace.

"Master, is there anything wrong with Xiaobai?" Xiaobai hurriedly put down the work in his hand and ran around.

"These corals, you help polish them, they have to be shiny. Mo Fan smiled and touched the little white head, and visited the expanded laboratory.

Xiaobai was unhappy: "I have a lot of work to do, and I can't polish corals. ”

"I won't go to school. ”

"Well, I'm going outside the space. ”
