Chapter 0747: Sea Monster (3)
The world has exploded!
There is no Internet, no social media, no live broadcast, but in the era when radio has spread all over the world, an explosive news still spreads throughout human society in an instant.
From polar research stations in the Arctic Circle to pelagic fishing vessels fishing for Antarctic krill; From tribal chieftains in the Sahara Desert to heads of state and presidents in Europe and the United States; From oceanographers in the depths of the ocean to astronauts on a space station in low-Earth orbit.
Within a few hours, the news became almost universal, and everyone knew that the terrifying sea monster had been spotted in the Sea of Marmara of the Tuji family, and for the first time in centuries clear photos and videos had been taken.
The telex immediately transmitted the photos of the sea monster to every corner of the world.
More than a dozen thick and long tentacles protruding from the sea are more than 30 meters high. In contrast, the rescued ships that were attacked were particularly helpless and vulnerable. The surrounding dinghy is even more like a miscellaneous fish.
If you zoom in on the picture, you can clearly see that the sea monster's tentacles are extremely thick. Bai Sensen's fleshy skin was covered with mucus-dripping suckers, dense enough to make the dense fears hairy.
The rescue ship of more than 1,000 tons was ruthlessly strangled by the sea monster and had no power to resist. The ship's personnel fled in panic, and there was no one to confront them. The thin hull shattered like a piece of plastic and capsized.
This tentacle is only the part that emerges from the sea, and you can imagine how huge and shocking the monster itself is under the sea.
Every reporter who sent the news and photos was shaking, and his fingers were shaking. Every editor who received the fax also shouted 'God' and hurriedly drew a cross on his chest.
This is a nightmare for all mankind.
Since the beginning of written history, the ancestors of mankind have left a large number of legends about monsters. Although legends do not stand up to scrutiny, humans always like to explore the mysteries of nature.
The Loch Ness Monster has only one extremely blurry image, but it has sparked a constant search for explorers from all over the world, even if they know they have been deceived.
Well, now the real sea monster is here.
There were dozens of boats of all sizes at the submarine rescue site, and three or four hundred people watched the scene of the sea monster appearing. There are also hundreds of cameras that have captured the footage, and there is no need to prove that the sea monster actually exists.
The major news outlets were extremely skeptical at first, but as the information was confirmed, they immediately riveted their efforts to send more reporters to the local chicken, and at the same time projected the images and videos they had on hand to the audience.
That night, almost every TV station in the world broadcast the news of the sea monster, and all of them received super high ratings. Countless viewers crowded in front of the television, bombarded with information like a mental explosion.
The tentacles sticking out of the sea are so evil that they are almost equivalent to the existence of demons. Especially for Westerners with religious habits, the blatant appearance of sea monsters is naked blasphemy.
Experts from all walks of life volunteered to jump out and explain to the media. Oceanographers, biologists, religious priests, and even street fortune tellers dare to open their mouths to say a few words.
The focus of the night's news was reporters rushing to hospitals in Istanbul to find onlookers who had witnessed the monster's presence — many of them went crazy on the spot, and many more were in a trance and in need of medical treatment.
But the witnesses were barely able to be interviewed, often incoherently saying strange things, or losing focus in their eyes, and had to take medication to rest.
Only a doctor can say a few words to the journalists, but nothing more than a pessimistic attitude about the situation of those who witnessed the incident, believing that they will live with horrific memories for a long time.
But ....., these are nothing.
The news is returned, and the local chicken responds the fastest. The Sea of Marmara is its inland sea, a crossroads connecting Europe and Asia. From both an economic and political point of view, the Native Chicken cannot allow any sea monsters to exist.
Before it got dark, more than a dozen ships of the port authority rushed to the area where the accident occurred, and turned on active sonar to search underwater. Even its navy was in a hurry, and took the initiative to transfer two frigates to join.
Active sonar is like beating a drum in the sea, making the calm ocean floor roar. The sailors also prepared torpedoes and depth charges, ready to strike a fatal blow at the sea monster.
The local chicken official also offered a reward, and the officers and soldiers who could capture the sea monster could be promoted to three levels in a row.
In addition to the official search, the non-governmental search team is even larger and more enthusiastic. Hundreds of ships form a dense network, casting their nets back and forth on the surface of the sea without fear of death.
There are already rich people who have offered tens of millions of bounties to obtain the body of a sea monster, regardless of life or death. A large number of scholars say that the sea monster may have existed since ancient times, and that it was a product of the same era as the dinosaurs.
Extremely valuable for research.
The dinosaurs were the rulers of the earth 200 million years ago, and their extinction was 60 million years ago. In contrast, the human ancestor 'Homo sapiens' only appeared tens of thousands of years ago, and the history is really short.
The rich and powerful were all very interested in the sudden sea monster, hoping to get some kind of secret from it - some people claimed to have collected the tentacle slime of the sea monster from the attacked rescue ship, and sold it for 10,000 dollars.
"Ten thousand dollars? It's too easy to earn. ”
Zhou Qingfeng disposed of the Type 209 submarine before dark, put away the 'Deep Sea Cruiser', and returned to the shore from the sea. He casually flagged down a taxi on the road to return to Istanbul.
The driver of the car saw that Zhou Qingfeng was a tourist, and his eyebrows fluttered to tell him about the hot sea monster news.
The radio station in the car was rolling to broadcast the latest news. For example, the capsized rescue boat sank to the bottom of the sea shortly after dark, but the crew was lucky to be rescued.
Before the ship sank, someone collected a viscous unknown liquid left on the hull and sold it as 'Kraken Slime'.
Sales are extremely hot!
"I actually contributed to the GDP growth of local chickens."
Zhou Qingfeng scolded in his heart, "How can I serve GDP wherever I go?" This is the case in China, in Da Mao Ermao's house, and it is also the case when I go to the local chicken. ”
"It's insane, a little slime sells for $10,000. Who's going to sell it? "What Zhou Qingfeng is most annoyed about is that he doesn't look for this kind of business, I don't know who is cheaper?
The taxi driver was also very excited, and exaggeratedly shouted: "It's really crazy." I just came from the other side of the bay. Ships throughout the harbor rushed out.
Big boats, small boats, and even yachts went out. Many of them were not afraid of death at all, and they formed a team to try their luck, saying that if they could hunt sea monsters, they would make enough money for a lifetime.
Many scientific research institutions in Europe have said that they should treat sea monsters calmly and not cause harm to them, saying that sea monsters are the property of all mankind.
Look at the words of those guys, it's really greedy. The sea monster belongs to our native chicken, and no one wants to snatch it. We will definitely treat it like a treasure. ”
The driver had the trademark upturned beard of the chicken man, and his beard shook up and down as he spoke. Zhou Qingfeng sat in the back seat, never expecting that no one would be afraid of such a big scene.
In the news, it was clearly broadcast that hundreds of people fell into extreme panic and nightmares because they saw the tentacles of the 'Deep Sea Rangers' with their own eyes, which is a kind of evil strange thing with its own aura of fear, and the mind test failed.
The victim will be tested again every 24 hours, and if they pass, they will return to their normal thinking, and if they fail, they will continue to be confused for the whole day. It cannot be said that they will not recover for the rest of their lives, but they will live in nightmares for months or years.
But such a miserable end can't stop human beings' pursuit of adventure and money. A bunch of people in small boats ran out to hunt sea monsters.
According to the driver, all kinds of seafood in Istanbul were sold out within a few hours – all of them were bought by people who wanted to make a fortune to use as sea monster bait and throw into the sea.
Zhou Qingfeng really couldn't laugh or cry at this, feeling that he had met a group of adventurers in the Black Forest who were not afraid of death and did not want to die. For the sake of money, they can do anything.
