Chapter 273: Enter the ruins under the sea
Ten hours passed quickly, and it was already early the next morning.
The sky is clear, the wind is mild, and the Hawaiian morning is picturesque.
Luo Meng had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery, and was already dressed in military uniforms and stood quietly in the military port with his teammates.
Pearl Harbor, ten Poseidon-class nuclear-powered submarines, quietly docked in port. Groups of American GIs stand on top of the nuclear submarine and are inspected by Admiral David.
Admiral David briefly introduced the performance of the Poseidon nuclear submarine to Romon and others, and after assigning the submarine to everyone, the team has already begun to set off. The Poseidon nuclear submarine is the sixth generation of American submarines, and the hull of this submarine is made of alloy to withstand the pressure of extreme seawater. Each of these submarines can carry about 100 to 300 people.
In this mission, the sea area where Luo Meng and others are going is in the bottom of the sea at a depth of 1,500 meters. This kind of depth cannot be reached by ordinary submarines, and the Poseidon-class nuclear submarine is made of alloy, and its pressure resistance is twenty-five times stronger than that of ordinary steel. Diving up to 1500 meters is not a problem at all.
Everyone began to enter the nuclear submarine, and the procession of thousands of people set off from Pearl Harbor and headed for the waters of Hawaii.
The sea water is clear, the submarine is like ten big black fish, slowly heading towards the deep sea, and a Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier escorts Romon and others. The aircraft carrier has a large number of scientists and advanced equipment, and they are providing supplies and logistics support for Luo Meng and others.
Romon sat in a submarine with great interest, and automatically drew the picture back through sonar detection, and Romon and the others enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the seabed.
The water is clear and bright, beautiful corals, colorful fish, the underwater world. It's like a dream.
The submarine dived for a while, in the middle of the sea. Suddenly, there were dilapidated battleships, which were sunk by the Japanese after a sneak attack in the Pearl Harbor attack. In that tragic war, American soldiers died in a Japanese attack in 2403, and someone in the United States built a special maritime cemetery in Hawaii to commemorate the soldiers who died in the Pearl Harbor attack.
In the sea. Not only can you see the strange scenery under the water, but you can also find the traces left by history, Romon is very excited. Lying in the cabin of the submarine with his arms crossed, he quietly watched everything.
The submarine departed from Hawaii. Head towards Kauai.
The ruins of the Mu Continent are 1,500 nautical miles outside of Kauai. According to the speed of the Poseidon nuclear submarine at 40 knots per hour, that is, the speed of 70 nautical miles per hour. It takes about 22 hours of full sailing to get there.
Kauai is called the Island of the Gods by Hawaiians, it is said. The first gods of mankind resided on Kauai.
Submarines have already begun to move from shallow to deep seas. Sunlight no longer reaches the deep sea. The surroundings were no longer clear, and in their wake, there was a cold darkness. The whole world is a tranquil, deep sea, full of many mysterious elements.
Human science and technology have been developed, and they can land on the moon with the help of a space shuttle and launch a spacecraft into space. But what humans know about the ocean. Only 5%. 95% of the ocean. Humans can't reach it. Humanity knows less than one-tenth of what we know about the oceans. No one knows how many secrets there are in the oceans, which cover 70 percent of the earth's area.
The infinite ocean is an endless treasure, the ocean gives birth to life, and at the same time, it also provides a future for mankind. When the resources on land are getting scarcer and fewer, only the huge resources of the ocean can provide support for human development.
Ten submarines are like ten big black fish, sneaking on the bottom of the sea, the submarine and the aircraft carrier's communication platform maintain communication, and everything is calm on the bottom of the sea.
Time passed slowly, and twenty-one hours passed quickly.
From the horn of the submarine, a prompt was heard from the command platform of the aircraft carrier.
The command station reminded that Luo Meng and the others had arrived at the designated sea area, and the communication system was disrupted, and if the submarine dived or advanced again, it would lose contact with the command platform.
In desperation, Luo Meng could only give an order to let all the genetic warriors and elemental warriors start to put on nanoprotective suits, bring their own equipment, and start exploring in teams.
Ten nuclear submarines began to drop anchor, docked in the water. Romon and his teammates began to change into nanohazmat suits and prepare for diving.
Luo Meng and the others are now at the bottom of the sea at a depth of 1,500 meters, and the pressure here is terrifying. At a depth of 10 meters, a human eardrum can be crushed. At a depth of 1,500 meters, the sea is equivalent to 1,500 air pressures, which is equivalent to 1,500 kilograms of objects carried by each person, and these water pressures will be squeezed from all directions. Ordinary people, if they do not have a hard protective clothing, will be crushed through the internal organs.
The terrifying environment under the sea makes it difficult for humans to truly explore the underwater world. However, all this is not a problem at all for Romon and others. The ninth-level genetic enhancer, and the first-level superpower, are extremely strong and can fully withstand this kind of air pressure.
The submarine opened, and a man swam into the water like a fish, leaving only a few soldiers and scientists who piloted the submarine. The rest of the super soldiers are all dispatched.
The dark deep sea, with only a little bit of strange mollusks and plankton in addition to the dark and icy waters. These creatures glow blue, like ghostly fire, and they are all around, very mysterious.
In the midst of the crowd, Levsky used his powerful ability to manipulate rays, his eyes turning purple and red, and using ultraviolet and infrared rays to scan his surroundings. This guy is a humanoid thermal scanning imager, he is in the water, and he can see an area of 20 kilometers. Levsky provided the crowd, and there were no large creatures within a radius of twenty miles. His infrared can scan any living creature with heat.
Levsky's words reassured everyone a little.
Romong's super eyesight doesn't have much effect in the sea, but Romon has another trick, he uses ultrasound waves to probe the surroundings. The ultrasound waves emitted by Luo Meng can travel 300 kilometers in deep water, and through ultrasound detection, coupled with the brain's super computing and simulation ability, pictures began to appear in Luo Meng's mind in the seabed.
Romon soon learned what the undersea hand looked like. About 70 kilometers ahead, there are two Grand Canyons, and the undersea relict city is there.
Romon began to give orders: "Darwin, use your ability to release nanowires and glue everyone together. ”
"Yes."
In the middle of the water, Darwin waved his hands from side to side, and nanofilaments the size of a hair expanded in all directions. Glued more than 400 people. At first glance, it looks like a huge net sticking to many big fish.
Romon ordered again: "Admiral David, Admiral Alexander, Tony, Aputura, Ferros Gandhi, I have found the underwater relict city with ultrasound, you help me lead everyone to that ancient city." ”
"Okay."
The voices of several generals were heard from the communicator.
After emitting the genetic force with both hands, like a giant oar of ten meters, and relying on the power of metamorphosis, Romon swam hard, reaching a distance of thirty meters per second, faster than the fastest fish in the sea.
David and the other five monsters who opened the fourth-level genetic lock and the seventh-level genetic lock, followed the example of Romon, wrapped their hands with the genetic force, and swam with great speed, extremely fast. The five monsters formed an arrow shape, dragging the remaining four hundred people and swimming wildly forward.
The five monsters have now become the power engine of Luo Meng and others, dragging Luo Meng and others forward, the five guys worked together, Luo Meng and others cooperated, and the team swam very fast, reaching a speed of 40 meters per second. At the speed of the march, it would take half an hour to reach the sea.
Luo Meng used ultrasound waves to explore the bottom of the sea non-stop, and pictures kept appearing in his mind, and everyone got closer and closer to the underwater ruins.
After swimming forward for a few minutes again, a deep trench appeared in front of everyone, two thousand-meter-high canyons towered high in the sea, and in the middle of the two canyons, a bottomless trench appeared.
Romon reminded everyone: "Everyone, we just need to enter that trench to reach the underwater ruins, everyone get ready." ”
"Yes."
At that moment, Romon used the anti-gravity protector to raise his vigilance, and a group of people swam into the dark trench.
In the calm depths of the sea, a powerful undercurrent suddenly surged, and Romon felt that his body was being sucked into an extremely strong whirlpool, and he struggled hard, reminding everyone to be careful. It's a pity that this undercurrent is too strong, and everyone almost didn't even have the ability to resist, and was directly swept into the depths of the trench.
The speed of the super dark current was very fast, and for a while he was dizzy, and Luo Meng fainted.
It didn't take long for Romon to wake up, and the dark and cold trench was no longer around.
The sea water in front of you is clear and bright, and the light here can make people's eyes see a distance of hundreds of meters, and it is not like a 1,500-deep seabed, but a seabed more than ten meters deep.
The strange sight shocked everyone, and one by one they began to wake up from their vertigo, and many guys who were not strong enough began to vomit wildly, and the whirlpool just now made them dizzy and their stomachs were about to vomit.
From the dark trenches to the bright seas. Everyone feels as if they have taken a fantastical journey. Everyone raised their vigilance and automatically gathered together.
Admiral David, Alexander, and Tony were already excited, and their surroundings felt a familiar feeling that they hadn't felt in a long time.
"That ruin is three kilometers away, you follow me, we know the way."
The three giants led the way, and everyone followed.
A few minutes later, everyone had already arrived at the ruins of the legendary Mu Continent, and the ruins of an ancient city appeared in front of them.
The ruined city walls, the moss-covered buildings, the relics of human civilization can still be seen in the past, everything is smooth as a mirror, and the super high temperature generated after the nuclear explosion burned everything into glass. On those buildings, you can still see strange runes. (To be continued.) )
