Volume 1 Survival Chapter 3 The Underwater World
"You don't have to be nervous, it's not good if you scratch yourself."
As soon as Ada's words fell, his heart rose to his throat, and he was sure that what he had done was unaware of it, and he didn't know where to show his feet.
"What do you say, I don't understand." Jiang Li was dumbfounded, in an unfamiliar environment, the table knife was his guts, and he didn't know what he was doing in his hand, although he looked calm on the surface.
"Hehe, you can take it if you want." Ida smiled slightly, she had light makeup painted on her face, she had nothing to say about her good figure, and she had a different kind of beauty.
"First of all, I want to congratulate you, your body is very healthy, more than 99.99% of the people on the planet, your body data is very much in line with our selection criteria, and you may be able to become one of us in the near future."
"What do you mean? Who do you represent? ”
"That means your life won't be in danger for the time being, and as for us, you'll find out soon." She said.
"For the time being?" Jiang Li'an almost didn't choke on these two words, what does it mean that there is no danger for the time being, which means that he may finish playing at some point?
Seeing that his expression was a little wrong, Ida smiled and said, "It turns out that your composure just now was all faked, little brother, your hand can be released, of course, you can also take out things and try it." ”
Ida looked relaxed, turning the bracelet on her wrist from time to time.
The atmosphere was a little awkward all of a sudden, Jiang Li'an coughed lightly and said, "What are you doing, you look so beautiful, don't tell me that you are responsible for arresting people." ”
"Poof, it's fun to talk to you." Ida smiled back and forth, and finally stopped laughing, "You're right, I'm in charge of arresting people." ”
As soon as she heard it, it was a lie, she didn't eat this set at all, and she didn't come up with half a useful sentence.
"Okay, what are you going to do with us, do experiments or shoot targets, hurry up, I'll think I still have a chance to live if I wait too long." Jiang Li'an obeyed, pulled out the dinner knife on his waist and threw it on the ground, he accepted his fate.
It is not easy to maintain normal thinking in this strange environment, from the time they came to eat, the two men who were originally in the room have always held their hands and never moved, as if everything here is not worth their mouths, and this station is not weak.
Just look at their appearance and know that they are not easy to mess with, they exude an inexplicable aura on their bodies, they can't be murderous, right? He thought.
The woman in front of her pierced his hole cards with one mouth, and her indifferent tone meant that this small dinner knife was not a threat to her at all, and it was not even painful.
So he obeyed, knowing that it was stupid to do it but not doing it, and it was stupid to do it knowing that it was impossible to do it, especially in this fatal place.
"I'll be honest with you for your performance today, you're doing well and hopefully being one of us." Ida finished speaking, and turned to the other two people who didn't know what country.
"Wow, wow, wow, wow......"
"How many languages does this woman speak? Such an obscure language? ”
Just switching back and forth between several languages has already amazed him, although it is not difficult to learn a language nowadays, but the kind of language that is very rare when you hear it is really few people learn.
Soon, Ida said that he had cleared the customs, and Jiang Li'an and 12 others were arranged to enter another place.
"This is the sea, and we're on the boat?" After passing through a few doors and going up a few flights of stairs, Jiang Li'an saw a magnificent scene.
From afar he could smell the sea, and the rest of the people noticed the situation and scrambled to the front.
Countless containers were piled up on the deck, and he couldn't imagine that he had come to sea in the cabin before, thinking that he was in some secret base on land, or maybe he had never been on such a large ship, and there was almost no sense of turbulence, only on the deck did he notice something.
Jiang Li'an looked into the distance, the sea was empty, he didn't see any ship or the shadow of the land, the freighter under his feet was sailing in a certain direction, the sea breeze was blowing in his face, and the irritability in his heart dissipated a lot.
The freighter had been sailing for more than a week, and on that day they were called to assemble on deck.
"Thank you all for your cooperation for so many days, and now you will be sent to a magical place where you will know all the answers, and hopefully we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future."
Ida showed a smile to his heart's content, Wilson and Tagu were also rare not to have a strained face, for more than a week, Jiang Li'an also knew the names of these three people, but he didn't know if they were talking about real names or fake names, but those didn't matter, he would soon leave here and be sent to an unknown place.
It was not surprising that Ida could speak Huaxia, but it was strange that Wilson and Tagu could also speak Huaxia, and he sometimes wondered when Huaxia was so easy for foreigners to learn.
After a while, Ada led them to the lift platform on the side of the ship and told them to stand up.
"No, it's going to throw us into the sea." Jiang Li'an was in a hurry, his eyes looked through the fence, "Didn't you say that you are destined to meet again, isn't there a more magical place, is this to give us to the Dragon King?" ”
Indeed, the Crystal Palace is magical enough.
The three of them don't look like bad people on the surface, especially Ada, who is good-looking and doesn't have a temper, provided she doesn't talk about life-threatening topics.
"No, no, it doesn't make sense." Jiang Li'an was very puzzled and puzzled, "If you want to do it, you will do it a long time ago, so you won't talk such nonsense." ”
The noon sun reflected a strange luster on the blue sea, Jiang Li'an looked greedily, and while he could still see it now, he could take a few looks.
His doubts were quickly answered, as the lift descended and then landed.
Yes, it's landing.
After putting his feet on the ground, he let out a long breath.
"It turned out to be a submarine, you just say no, it's mysterious."
The strange submarine had been lurking beneath the surface and happened to be in the shadow of the freighter, so he didn't notice it.
Soon they entered the interior of the submarine, the space was not very large, there were 3 people in the same uniform on the operation table who were busy, and Jiang Li'an's eyes were attracted by a huge piece of glass.
"Damn, this is the real Ocean Park."
The submarine dived very fast, and outside the huge glass, several strong rays of light shot straight into the deep sea, and many marine species he knew or did not know were attracted and cruising around the pillar of light.
He even saw a great white shark preying on a tuna, which also looked more than 1 meter long, and was split in two under the giant mouth of the great white shark, and the great white shark bit one of them and swayed away.
The remaining half of the fish attracted many small predators, but because of the extremely fast speed of the submarine, this scene only stayed for more than ten seconds.
"Wow, wow, wow."
The kid from the unknown country screamed, and Jiang Li'an saw countless objects glowing blue slowly growing larger in his line of sight.
"So many jellyfish, and still glow?"
I don't know what kind of jellyfish can survive in such deep water, judging from the value table next to the glass, it has reached 500 meters underwater and continues to dive.
1000 meters.
2500 meters.
3000 meters.
......
The sea is abundant, countless lives reproduce, and he even saw a strange fish at a depth of more than 3,000 meters underwater, without seeing eyes, with a long tentacle on its head, and its body is huge, and he does not know what they feed on.
The submarine continued to dive.
"And then there's the end." Jiang Li'an looked at the value of 9232 meters and muttered to himself.
"Well, what's that?"
Somewhere on the bottom of the unknown sea, a huge seabed appeared before him, with obvious signs of manipulation, and it was unusually flat compared to the rest of the world.
"Marianas, yes, it should be the Mariana Trench, the deepest trench on Earth." He is very confident in the knowledge points in his memory, and he often encounters this question when he plays games and answers questions, but he has been quiet in the deep sea beauty and has not remembered it.
The power of the submarine searchlight is very high, but in this dark deep sea, the light is also compressed to the extreme, and he can only see a rough idea.
"Biliba, wah."
"Gollum, crackling....."
Jiang Li'an turned his head when he heard this strange language, it turned out to be one of the submarine staff, and he didn't know what he was saying.
Then what he saw shocked his eyeballs.
"Crystal Palace!"
Countless lights suddenly turned on, illuminating the underwater world transparently.
Dozens of bizarre beehive-like structures towered over this seabed, closer, closer.
"Is this a city?" His eyes widened in disbelief at what he saw, "City under the sea? ”
When they got off the freighter, Alan had said that they would be sent to a magical place.
Sure enough, is there anything more magical than that?
The rest of the people had similar expressions to him, all of them were stunned by this bizarre scene, and none of them could speak.
He estimated the area of this underwater city in his heart, and he could only estimate it, about 5 square kilometers, and the entire periphery of the city was wrapped in a huge layer of transparent material, and countless pillars of light shot out from it, and it really looked like a crystal palace from a distance.
He did not believe that humans could make such a large glass, and that it could be used in the 10,000-meter deep sea, which could only be described as an unknown substance.
The submarine they were riding in entered the underwater city through a huge opening.
It didn't take long for them to be notified that they could go out.
In this short period of time, he, like everyone else, has experienced so many magical things that he has not yet regained his calm when he actually walked into this underwater city.
This unbelievable method cleansed his soul, and he looked overhead, where the lights that had been turned on were now turning off, leaving only a faint blue glow flowing on the shield of transparent matter.
Before they had time to sigh, something similar to a sightseeing car stopped in front of them, and the driver was a middle-aged man, who told them to get into the car in English after seeing them, which he could understand.
"Drive a sightseeing car under the sea, okay." His nerves were numb.
