Chapter 459: Deep-Sea Construction

Because of the shape of the water droplets, there is almost no resistance when it shuttles through the water. In the blink of an eye, he could drive dozens of meters away, and Jiang Chen looked at the [speed: 75 knots] on the speed meter

"Good guy, this Nima can already blow up the world's fastest submarine just from the speed alone. Looking at the galloping seabed under his feet, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh.

He remembered that the fastest submarine in the world is the Russian P-class cruise missile nuclear submarine with a maximum speed of 44.7 knots. And the speed of this Water Drop 1 actually reached a terrifying 75 knots.

I just don't know how the legendary superconducting magnetofluid submarine, which is still under development, compares to this "mount" under his crotch.

The submarine reef is rugged, and the dark green seaweed is like a forest sea. Schools of colourful fish weave through the sea, jellyfish and squid dance to the accompaniment of bubbles, all of which are reflected in the walls of the droplets.

In addition to this, Jiang Chen also saw the legendary shark.

When the "water droplet" passed by it, the big guy ignored the "water droplet" as if he didn't see it, and disappeared from Jiang Chen's sight when he turned around.

As the depth increases, the light from the surface of the sea becomes darker and darker, and the dark blue claustrophobic feeling becomes more and more obvious. Jiang Chen wasn't sure if he had deep-sea phobia, but he still turned off the wide-angle camera, and only kept the front, left, right, and rear windows on the screen directly in front of him.

"Water Drop One, where have we been?"

"There are still 100 nautical miles from the target position. ”

100 nautical miles, that is, about an hour?

Seeing that there was still a little time left, Jiang Chen got up and walked towards the living cabin.

The layout of the living cabin is compact. There are two beds with nylon buckles on the left and right sides, if you lift the bed. You can pull out the table and wardrobe under the bed. After taking a look at the internal structure of the submersible with interest, Jiang Chen instructed the submersible to wake him up when it arrived at its location. Then he slipped into the bed, which looked like a sleeping bag, and took a nap.

An hour later, under the soft sound of the bell, Jiang Chen opened his eyes.

After getting out of bed and returning to the cockpit, he turned his gaze to the control panel, his eyes widening in surprise.

Is this 7,500 meters below the sea?

This bottomless darkness, this legendary forbidden area of life.

All that could be seen in the entire area was the pillar of light that shot from the tip of the droplet into the bottom of the sea. The black, shiny rocks shimmered in the glow of the searchlights. The disturbed benthic creatures swam their cilia and slowly fled into the darkness around them.

In addition to the bizarre creatures of the seabed, the cracks in the crust of the seabed spew hot bubbles from time to time. The dark red firelight, like a volcano, brewed with terrifying energy.

At this time, a flattened sea fish more than ten meters long slowly approached the side of the water droplet. The saucer-shaped head had no eyes, and the long spike-like teeth looked terrifying. It looked at the droplet curiously and touched it with its mouth. But soon it was electrocuted and swam two meters away. He fled without looking back.

Electrostatic displacement on the surface of the water droplets can make most deep-sea creatures lose interest in it, both to protect the safety of the submersible and to protect the safety of these seabed creatures.

Without continuing to play, Jiang Chen quickly distributed the mineral resources marked on the map. Manually controlled the Water Drop No. 1 and moved to the top of the molybdenum-rich manganese nodule ore.

"Throw the mining module. After confirming the location of the target, Jiang Chen ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes. Mr. Captain. The AI replied politely.

Soon, the cylinder hanging at the bottom of the droplet separates from the droplet. A series of long, narrow strings of bubbles are discharged from the rear of the cylinder. Pushing the fish-like cylinder slowly towards the target rock.

100 meters.

50 meters.

10 meters.

The searchlight was tightly locked on the cylinder, and Jiang Chen watched this scene intently.

Deep black blocks of rock are set in grayish-black argillaceous rock. The landscape is dotted like a cobblestone road. I saw that the cylinder slowly stopped above the black rock formation, and the engine behind it slowly turned off.

Jiang Chen glanced at the map on the screen, and saw that the green dot marking the location of the submersible had coincided with the red dot in the center of the mine.

After a pause, Jiang Chen ordered in a deep voice: "Mining module, unfold!"

"Yes. ”

A series of bubbles erupted from the bottom of the cylinder, and suddenly a nail dragging a graphene cable chiseled to the bottom of the sea. The cable straightened and slowly pulled the cylinder towards the surface, stopping at a distance of about 3 meters from the bottom of the sea.

The cylinder slowly unfolded, and the hatches on both sides slowly expanded outward, releasing two missile-like objects. The missile is about 5 meters long and 1 meter in diameter, and its tail is connected to the inner compartment of the cylinder by a graphene pipe.

After separating from the cylinder, the warheads of these two missiles immediately sank, and a string of water mist was sprayed from the tail, pushing the missiles to the bottom of the sea.

The warhead dived deep into the rock mass.

Then a miraculous scene happened!

The tail of the warhead burst violently, and at the same time as a string of bubbles exploded, it opened an arc-shaped top cover with a radius of about 10 meters like an umbrella. The roof slowly descended, clasping onto the flat rock mass of the seabed.

From a distance, it looks as if it is made of a large cylinder connected by a graphene tube to two bowls that are upside down on the bottom of the sea.

"The mining module has been deployed, please deploy the transport module. ”

The polite electronic voice sounded again, pulling Jiang Chen back from the shock of technology.

The so-called transport module is actually four graphene guide rails and an ellipsoidal lifter. Due to the large size of these things, Jiang Chen did not carry them in the submersible. After all, there is such a thing as storage space, and it is really easy to bring objects to the bottom of the sea.

Anchoring the water drop No. 1, Jiang Chen immediately returned to the end of the world and came to the backyard of the villa. At the moment he was stocking his Dolphin-10 and a whole bunch of graphene rails from the Sixth Block factory.

In a deep-sea environment of more than 7,000 meters, it is difficult for ordinary materials to withstand this water pressure, so high-strength graphene materials come in handy.

After throwing these materials into the storage space, Jiang Chen returned to Water Drop No. 1 again.

His hand was on the door, his consciousness sank into the storage space, and soon, the dozens of bundled graphene rails were put out of the cabin.

Then Jiang Chen went back and forth between the present world and the end times several times in the same way, throwing all the building materials out of the water droplets.

Ordered the water drop No. 1 to anchor, and then Jiang Chen ordered the intelligent system to start construction, and spliced those graphene guide rails and fixed buoys on top of the mining module according to the drawings in memory.

The rest of the things didn't need to be operated by his own hands, looking at the 5 hours of construction time, Jiang Chen yawned and returned to the living cabin.

All the operations can be done by artificial intelligence.

As the captain of the ship, he only needs to go back to the living compartment to sleep and wait for the construction to be completed, and then he can return to the ship. (To be continued.) )
