Chapter Seventy-Nine: Undercurrent

The tugboat stopped advancing.

Shen Rui: They can't go forward, otherwise they will be observed by the other party from the telescope.

Ye Wuxian invaded the monitoring system of the other party's two ships through the satellite network, through the monitoring, it can be clearly seen that hundreds of people are busy on the freighter, more than two hours ago, the deep-sea rescue submarine that can carry twenty-four people has just completed a dive, at this moment it has returned to the sea, and the freighter's own high-horsepower generator is supplying power to the submarine.

Sir Bruce is not visible in the surveillance footage.

Shen Rui opened his mouth, "So, Bruce and the first group of centaurs who went under the sea didn't return to the boat?" Instead stayed under the sea? ”

If Bruce stays under the sea, it means that there is a secret base under the sea for humans to survive!

Who will build it? These followers of the Holy See? Alien?

Ye Wuxian nodded, "This is a large-scale operation, not only will they transport people under the sea, but they will also carry many mysterious boxes, but unfortunately the surveillance cameras are not very clear, and we have no way of knowing what they are carrying." ”

"In another hour, the submarine's power storage system will be full, and these guys will go under the sea for the second time, and it is impossible to estimate how many times they will have to transport people and equipment."

Shen Rui said: "We will also follow them down, can we complete the positioning under the sea, that is, follow the other party's medium-sized submarine?" ”

Ye Wuxian took a bite of the white chocolate and said in a deep voice, "No problem." ”

……

The sealed door was closed, and the Seahorse broke away from the towing ship and sank into the deep Atlantic.

There were three people on board, Shen Rui, Ye Wujian, and Pan Yong.

It is quite risky to follow the other party deep into the unknown underwater world, but Shen Rui and they have no other way, the temptation is too great, they want to know what is under the sea, and what this group of fanatical believers plan to do.

At a depth of more than a hundred meters, some slight sounds began to come from the four walls of the Seahorse.

Everyone in the world thinks that submarines go deep into the sea by relying on a solid shell, but in fact, it is not all right, in addition to being strong, the toughness of deep-sea submarines is also very important.

To put it simply, all deep-sea submarines are deformed, and the hull is stressed, making the submarine smaller and smaller, and the truly powerful submarine is by no means immobile in the face of pressure, but will rely on toughness to resist pressure invasion.

Although Shen Rui and the others knew that the submarine would be deformed due to squeezing underwater, it was another matter to actually sit in the submarine for this kind of risk.

It was only more than 100 meters deep, and the hull of the submarine made a sound because of the pressure, and when it reached a depth of 1,000 meters, it was not sure what the situation would be.

The opposing medium-sized underwater rescue submarine has completed two deliveries and returned to the surface.

Ye Wuxian used hacking technology to enter the opponent's voyage record system and copy the voyage record to the Seahorse.

It's like a kind of autopilot technology, where the opponent has advanced and dived how many meters, and the Seahorse has a corresponding record, as long as the opponent's route is moved, they can reach their final destination.

As for the other party's sonar detection system, Shen Rui was not worried, Ye Wuxian had already preset the dead angle in advance, that is, as long as the other party's sonar detected the same volume as the Seahorse, it would automatically be hidden from the sonar display.

Although this can make the Seahorse invisible, there is a precondition that the Seahorse's own sonar cannot be turned on.

The sonar thing relies on the transmission of sound like sea water to capture the signal, the sound is quite loud, and it spreads in all directions, and once the Seahorse also turns on the sonar, the other party can easily pick it up.

For submarines, if they don't turn on sonar, they are blind, and they don't even know if there is a reef on the opposite side, Shen Rui's adventurous nature of this operation is by no means low, it all depends on whether the voyage record is accurate enough, and if there is any mistake, it is likely to be doomed.

At a depth of four hundred meters, the Seahorse moved precisely according to the opponent's route, and Ye Wuxian turned on the deep-water searchlight carried by the submarine.

Swish~

A lanternfish more than two meters in length may have swam slowly to the Seahorse's light, baring its white teeth.

The Seahorse has a large observation window, and when you are in the cockpit, you can clearly see everything in the sea.

To be honest, it's still quite scary to sit next to the transparent window, and from time to time ugly-looking guys swim by, and the more you enter the deep sea creatures, the more weird they become, all of which are monsters that are usually hard to see.

"Look!" At a depth of 1,300 meters, Lao Pan pointed straight ahead and said.

I saw that the plankton in the water were all heading in the same direction, as if attracted by some mysterious force, and at the same time, the speed of the Seahorse became faster and faster.

"Wrong, turn back to manual operation!" The green tendons on Shen Rui's temples jumped, and he immediately pressed the navigation switch button to transfer the Seahorse to manual.

"What are you doing?" Ye Wuxian frowned and asked.

"One thing we forgot is that the submarine is bigger and more powerful than us, and it can withstand this undercurrent on the seabed, but we may not." Shen Rui said in a deep voice.

Ye Wuxian was also stunned, yes, the other party was a medium-sized submarine carrying twenty-four members, but he was only a small scientific research submarine, and his size and power were not of the same level, so what the other party could do was not necessarily for himself.

Shen Rui's hands were very steady, maneuvering the Seahorse to get rid of the current, while Ye Wuxian paid attention to the route.

To get rid of the undercurrent on the seabed, it is necessary to have technology, not to forcibly break away, but to follow the current, with the help of impulse, to move to the periphery little by little.

It's like crossing a river, and experienced swimmers know that you must not cross a river against the current, which will quickly exhaust your strength and you will have to move diagonally along the current.

After about ten minutes, the surrounding undercurrent became much slower, and the sound from the power motor was much smoother, not as distorted as it was just now.

The depth is still 1,300 meters, but a triangular giant seems to appear in front of everyone's eyes, and as the distance approaches, everyone finally sees that this is a huge pyramid under the sea, the foundation is at a depth of 1,700 meters, and the depth of the pyramid tip is 500 meters, that is to say, this is a super pyramid as high as 1,200 meters!

What's even more bizarre is that there is a circular hole in the middle of this pyramid, about 100 meters in diameter, and the sea water passing through this hole seems to be accelerated, forming a powerful undercurrent.

Plankton in the water, hapless deep-sea fish, once they enter this undercurrent, they are firmly sucked in, enter from one end of the hole, and accelerate the ejection from the other.

Everyone gasped, but fortunately, Shen Rui reacted quickly, adjusted the direction in time, and rushed out of the undercurrent, otherwise it was himself who was caught in the hole.

The pyramid has four sides, two of which are openings for accelerating undercurrents, and the other two are very stable areas due to currents and topography, and the Seahorse is now in one of the stable areas.

Ye Wuxian recompared the other party's route map and said in a deep voice: "We have arrived in the opposite direction to the other party's route. ”

Shen Rui was stunned, among the four sides of the pyramid under the sea, there were two undercurrent areas, two sides were stable areas, he was in one of the stable areas, and the people of the Holy See were opposite him.

"There's a hole down there." Lao Pan stretched out his hand and pointed to the bottom of the pyramid and said.
