Chapter 53: Diving Begins (4600)

The huge remains formed by the corpse of the dragon king at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean have long been discovered by the joint exploration of the seabed by Jeongkook and the Federation of the Americas, and its exact location is located around the crustal fissure around the Northern Mariana Islands, in the center of a dense submarine chimney.

Su Day's induction in the past, firstly, confirmed that there was a dragon born on the corpse of the dragon king, and secondly, he also found out the situation around the ruins, and prepared for the next more detailed exploration work.

This time the exploration will be led by Jeongguk, and the purpose of the public exploration is to reveal the evidence of the existence of ancient demons and immortals to everyone in the world, and their power.

No matter what country or myth, there are legends of giant beasts and demons, some of them can live normally with people, and some are pure enemies...... The inheritance governments of various countries that know the inheritance of the mimetic path naturally know the difference, which is the oldest way for human beings to return the way to the other.

But the people are different, and humans who grew up in the era of disconnection of the aura know very little about these things, and it is easy to confuse the two.

But the existence of the mimetic path is here, and there will inevitably be powerful mimetic cultivators who will appear on the public stage in the future - are they human or demon? Is it a druid, a werewolf, a vampire, or some other alien beast? Aren't they really a threat to normal humans? Are they like the legend has it that they devour human flesh and blood?

In order to explain this issue clearly, to separate all the mimicry cultivators in the world from this demonized public opinion, it takes all kinds of foreshadowing.

For Jeongguk, the 'dragon', which has always appeared in a positive and totemic image, is the best example.

"Even if my identity as the bearer of dragon blood is revealed, no one thinks that I am not human anymore - of course, there are reasons why I am handsome, but the most important thing is that there is a dragon in the totem worship of Jeongguk since ancient times."

Su Sun is very self-aware, he knows very well that even if he is handsome, if the bloodline he gets is a mess of gluttonous beasts such as Zhu Yanqi and other evil beasts, or other jackals, bears, tigers and leopards, the trend of public opinion will not change so well, and everyone will subconsciously reject it.

In fact, the phoenix is also a truth, no one will hate the phoenix bloodline - this is the importance of fame.

Therefore, choosing the relics of the Dragon King as the target will not cause much repulsion, and this demon god who is basically determined to be the 'Dragon King of Tianchi', according to the records in the classics, is indeed cultivated by a human being, and it is indeed very suitable as an example of public imitation.

However, in addition to this, there is actually another difficult problem - whether to reveal the power of the demon race and the immortal gods of the past so early, in fact, has also caused controversy in the joint meeting of various countries: some people believe that revealing the power of the immortal gods too early will induce panic and vacillation among the people, or uncontrollable blind worship, these are extremely unstable factors, which is not a good thing for today's somewhat crumbling world order.

However, the other side believes that instead of being forced to reveal the existence and power of the immortals in the possible turmoil in the future, it is better to give the people a preventive shot in a state that is at least stable now.

As for the inevitable chaos...... Could it be avoided by dragging it back?

At that time, Su Yan was also present, sitting in the seat behind the two holy seats of Wensheng and Lisheng, and by the way, he also took a photo of the scene of the United Nations General Assembly, and posted it on an anonymous website, which aroused a wave of 'You never know who the sand sculpture netizen chatting with you is'' 'There are really everyone on X Island!' 's shocked reply.

Lisheng was a pure official, a sixty-three-year-old man with a neat beard and a very spirited person. He didn't go out of his way to practice, and his strength was not high, so he didn't coincide with the daily circle of Su Day, a transcendent person, and that meeting was the first time he encountered it.

On the side of Jeongkook, they prefer to make it public as soon as possible, after all, Jeongkook's mimetic inheritance is second only to Fusang next door, and the status of the mimicry cultivators is not low, they have made achievements in all major fields, and their voices are also an important force.

Su Sun also felt that the immortals existed objectively, at least in this world. That being the case, it is indeed better to be early than to be forced to show when the situation is out of control.

At the end of the meeting, it was also concluded that 'long pain is better than short pain', which is why there was a multinational joint exploration team led by Jeongkook this time.

This time, Su Yan was appointed as the leading professor to preside over the exploration of the remains of the Dragon King, this exploration, there will also be a live broadcast of the "Into the Ruins" program team, unlike those small ruins, this time the program is listed separately, and it is named the special chapter of "The Ancient Relics", if there is any large-scale ruins worth exploring in the future, it will be broadcast live under this name.

As for why Su Sun led the team, it was actually not surprising, because he was now the holder of dragon blood recognized by transcendents in all countries in the world, and his existence itself was a reassuring pill, and even among the entourage, many people were relieved, feeling that there was a true dragon bloodline present, even if there was any accident in the deep sea, at least the safety of life was guaranteed.

But they didn't know that Su Sun would know the Thunder Method, the Fire Method, and the Wind Method, but they wouldn't know the waterβ€”if they knew, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so optimistic.

I'm afraid it's not a fake dragon.

"It's not a big problem." However, Su Sun himself was full of confidence: "I have condensed the spiritual power bones and spleen, and most of the remaining muscles have been condensed, and the brain is left." ”

"Don't say that the Jiaolong realm is weaker than me, and it hasn't even turned into a dragon body, even if it has been transformed into a real dragon body, I can still blow it up with one punch."

However, it is not clear whether there will be a fight or not, after all, after training for a period of soul communication, Su Sun is confident that he will use his strong willpower to persuade Jiaolong to negotiate peacefully at the first time.

After declaring to the principal, and getting the nominal permission, Su Sun took a car to the airport, went to Tiandu, and then landed in Fusang on a special plane with the official exploration team of Jeongkook, and then set off from Guam by boat to the relevant sea area.

The whole process didn't even take more than half a day, and Su Sun had already come from Hongcheng to the sea.

This time the exploration, Zhengguo is naturally the leader, followed by the American Federation and Fuso, other countries due to geographical reasons and other complex factors, can not send an exploration team at the first time, can only nominally send a few entourage.

The system of Fuso is a constitutional monarchy based on the elite bureaucracy, with a nominal existence of an emperor, not to mention the original symbolic meaning, but its role itself is to inherit the orthodox ancient legal texts of Fuso, and the Fuso gods in ancient times handed over the management of the classics to them, but did not give them ownership, which is similar to the identity of a librarian.

Fuso's internal political system is now undergoing large-scale reform because of the revival of Reiki, and they themselves do not want to change in essence, but the revival of Reiki itself is a catalyst for change and chaos, and the lower strata who hold power and are suppressed will naturally not be willing to continue to be called by their superiors, and the bosses will naturally feel panic when they see the changed subordinates - plus the status of Fusang's mimetic inheritors is not high, and the suppression is far more serious than that of the Zhengguo mimetic cultivators, and the internal contradictions of the transcendent are also great, divided into conservatives and reformers, It's just that it has been suppressed by the general environment of the cut off of aura.

Between the conservatives and the reformers, this accumulated hostility, if it erupts, is probably no less than the great riot that upended the old Fuso one hundred and thirty years ago.

This exploration of the remains of the Dragon King is of great significance to the reformers within Fuso, and if the operation is successful, the propaganda will be over, and the reputation of the cultivators will be swept away.

Theoretically, the conservatives within Fuso must have wanted to sabotage the operation – but unfortunately they didn't. After all, the cost of offending the Righteous Kingdom and the American Federation is far greater than the success of the reformers.

As to why the Federation of the Americas supports it, it is for a similar, but different, purpose.

In the final analysis, mimesis is nothing more than changing the body and simulating the power of otherworldly beings.

This is different from normal humans, in essence, on the body, although the demonized body has great power, but it looks different from normal humans, which will induce the fear of ordinary humans, after all, all humans are essentially members of the Appearance Association.

So, what difference does it make whether a person becomes a demon or a robot?

It seems that it is an unrelated topic, but in fact, it has the same essence.

In terms of mechanized transformation, and even mechanical transcendent transformation, the Federation of Americas, which has a very deep technical background, knows very well that as long as everyone can accept it, it does not matter if the body changes, and as long as the spirit is human, then it is human, then all the ethical and public opinion problems of mechanized transformation will be solved.

After all, compared to the demon real body, the shape of the mechanical body is more similar to the human body, and the instinctive repulsion is smaller.

Perhaps to many people, this seems to be an extremely difficult ethical and moral issue to change, but with the advancement of technology, human ethics and morality itself will change, and for the large aggregate of countries and civilizations, ethics and morality are just tools used to maintain stability, and tools naturally have to adapt to the changes of the times.

"So, let's go down in a submersible? I thought I needed to dive physically. ”

On the top deck of the traveling research ship, Su Yan was drinking coffee with Xuanlu, the head of the Xuanwu Xuan family, this was a show after all, there were basically no accidents, and the natural danger was very small, and the two were not nervous.

In fact, because just now the old and the young asked, 'Is coffee soy milk?' If it is soy milk, then sweet soy milk with sugar, salty soy milk with salt, can coffee also add salt? This point was discussed for twenty minutes, so that there was no one else around except for a secretary of Xuanlu.

I have to say that Su Sun is really an opponent in chess this time, although Xuanlu is old, he has profound skills and clear thinking, and when it comes to life experience, Su Sun can't beat it, if it weren't for Su Day's talent and genius, I'm afraid he would really be overpowered.

The Xuanwu bloodline is born to control water, and the Zhengguo official also knows that Su Sun has not shown the spiritual power of the water system, so he let this veteran go out and take Su Sun with him, nominally Su Sun is indeed the team leader, but in fact, it is Xuanlu who is in charge of the entire exploration plan - this Su Sun naturally has nothing to disagree with, he doesn't understand it in the first place, but Xuanlu has to be in charge and not the team leader, if it weren't for his old age and not caring about this false name, I'm afraid there would be a little pimple in his heart.

"It's a submersible, but it's newly built, and after testing, it's easy to dive even to the depths of the 10,000-meter trench, let alone 6,000 meters of the ocean bottom - if you want to dive physically, it's not impossible, but the Dragon already has an exit device similar to a torpedo launch, and you can enter the sea at any time."

Xuanlu smiled and took a sip of the black sweet soy milk in the cup. Just as the Northwest Bai family, which also has the blood of the gold system, shines in various materials science, as well as branches and leaves that need to be sensitive to the perception of various metals, the Xuan family naturally knows a lot about this deep-sea operation, and even the submersible was designed and manufactured by them.

The old man proudly showed off his achievements to the powerful young man in front of him: "The original design of the Dragon is to explore other worlds or alien planets in the future, those 'extraordinary environments' beyond the earth's environment. Its standard of strength far exceeds any exploration need on the planet. ”

At this time, five multinational research ships have arrived around the Mariana Sea, and many exploration instruments are already in operation to collect relevant data from the surrounding area.

The program team in front of them is filming the opening remarks at this time, and the shape of the fusiform and the whole white 'Dragon Submersible' is also being displayed, with smooth wave lines on it, and under the blowing of the sea breeze, the light blue water flashes.

From Su Tian's point of view, what Xuanlu said was really not boasting, not to mention the rune structure above the submersible, just that special extraordinary alloy material, its hardness is probably comparable, even more than the golden feather of Garuda's body, if he doesn't show his real strength, it is really difficult to destroy.

At this time, I can also vaguely hear the opening remarks of the Zhengguo program team in the distance.

[Dragon jade jade, dragon and phoenix, is synonymous with Zhengguo culture, except for the dragon and phoenix, there is no such single and long-standing totem worship in the world, except for jade, there is no one kind of mineral that is born with such divinity. 】

[Reiki revival, the divinity of jade, has been proven, a good jade with good material worn on the body, can condense aura, relieve fatigue, moisturize the mind, our ancient ancestors, must have discovered this, so they took jade as the name of their own civilization. 】

[But, what about the dragon and phoenix? Where does their divinity originate? Is there really such a thing as a dragon and a phoenix in this world? Where did our ancient totems come from? In ancient times, dragons and lights agreed, and the word dragon and phoenix were used together, what are their true faces? This question is too deep and broad for anyone to answer. 】

[But today, we will reveal the secret of the dragon, hide behind history, and show the true face of our totem to everyone - we will unearth the ruins from the ancient times, and restore the truth of history from the scales and claws of the monuments. 】

[Large-scale outdoor live broadcast recording program, into the ruins special chapter, the ancient relics, the trace of the dragon, will show you the secrets of all this. 】

[Stay tuned.] 】

Next, it was the advertising time, and at this time, Su Sun and others also began to prepare for diving, and the safety monitoring of the dragon submersible had just been confirmed by the staff, and all the entourage were wearing protective equipment.

It can be seen that several other scientific research ships from other countries are also in the corresponding process, and they will dive to the bottom of the sea in different orders in turn - naturally, the Zhengguo exploration team led by Su Sun will take the lead.

The Dragon submersible is a large manned submersible, using a 'spiritual power conversion battery' as an energy source - this is a very mature technology that has been studied, and the Shaw family's Shaw Solar also had relevant research in this area at the beginning.

Compared with the general deep-sea submersible, the Dragon is very large, 18 meters long, 7 meters wide, with a deep-sea escape function, a total of twelve seats, including three controllers, Su Sun and Xuanlu, and two other official transcendents, a total of four people as a force guarantee, into the ruins program group of two people, responsible for accompanying filming, the other three are researchers, collecting underwater investigation and exploration data.

Entering the submersible, Su Sun sat in the eighth seat closest to the 'exit device', after all, if he encountered any huge sea beast, he would get out of the submersible and fight with the other party as soon as possible, and the others were also done in turn, they had all been trained and acted very skillfully.

Soon, with the explanation of the program team, the hatch of the Dragon closed and began to sneak in.

The white submersible was smoothly lowered and the dive began...... The sunlight faded away, and the blue waters grew deeper and deeper until they turned black.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, and tens of millions of viewers around the world, they went to the bottom of the sea.
