Early morning in the Sea of Marmara at the end of July '92.

Ships come and go on the busy waterways. Occasionally, when the whistle sounds, there are ships leaving the port to remind them to evade, or to say hello to the intersecting ships.

An Istanbul port rescue ship was parked on the water, lowering several dinghys. Two helicopters circled over the sea, but could not help, and it did not take long to return.

The local chicken's own media came slowly, but the European journalists in Istanbul ran fast. When they heard the news, someone rented a boat at a high price and followed the rescue boat to the rescue.

Before the rescue ship went to sea, the reporter interviewed a number of people familiar with the situation to find out what type of submarine the accident was, how many personnel there were, and the current situation.

The news was disseminated by the media, and the sailors of the freighter on the route discussed with each other on the radio, and it was indispensable to hold up binoculars and watch as they passed through the place of the incident. Some people prayed for the crew in the accident, but most people just watched the excitement.

If the submarine does not have an accident, it is a big deal.

There were divers on board the dinghy released by the rescue boat, and they found the distress beacon dropped by 'Ildire'. Rescuers radioed to comfort the crew fifty meters underwater, while telling the divers to go down to see what was really going on?

In order to ensure safety and ease of operation, divers wear hard-shell wetsuits and stand in a cage to enter the water. They also dragged cables and carried high-powered underwater searchlights to make it easier to figure out the situation in the dark sea.

Journalists want to see a thrilling rescue operation that counts against time and goes through hardships. But the situation on the scene is not alarming, just from the situation on the water......

With seabirds flying, sparkling waves, and a refreshing sea breeze, the weather is so nice today, it's a great time to vacation.

Istanbul is the largest city in Tuji, and there are no strong winds and waves in the Sea of Marmara, and some residents who have pleasure boats have learned that the submarine is in distress, and many people have driven their own small boats towards the area where the accident occurred.

If there is a reporter interviewing, the residents who see the excitement will naturally not say that they are here to get in the way, but will feel sad and compassionate, expressing how much they look forward to the safe return of the underwater crew.

But the scene was too dull, and the rescue was not done by letting the divers plunge into the water. The preparations lasted all morning, and reporters and well-wishers all complained that the sun was a little hot today, and the reflection on the sea surface was too dazzling.

It wasn't until noon that the first three divers finally went down. They picked different directions, ready to take a full look at what was going on with 'Ildire'? And the ability to float on its own.

As for the continuous abnormal noise and damage to the ballast compartment reported by the crew, it can only be judged after the submarine is out of the water.

Finally, when the rescue boat began to release the cage, the onlookers and residents immediately grabbed their own 'long guns and short cannons'. They hope that the rescue work will go smoothly, and they also hope that there will be some excitement, so as not to come in vain.

At a distance of fifty meters, it is not difficult to put down the cage. 'Ildire' was also stable under the water, with no further damage worsening.

At this moment, the perpetrator of the whole incident fell asleep at the bottom of the sea and had just woken up. He had been roaming the shallow waters of more than 50 metres in the Deep-Sea Ranger last night, but soon decided to venture deeper.

The Sea of Marmara is small, but it is quite deep. The Rangers have ventured hundreds or thousands of kilometers to the bottom of the ocean in search of areas rarely touched by humans.

The eyes of the two octopuses of the Ranger glow like light bulbs, illuminating the world in total darkness.

100 meters below the surface of the water, you can also see animals and plants such as swimming fish. But beyond 100 meters, sunlight cannot be projected, and the deep sea appears very deep and lonely.

No matter how bright the eyes of the 'Rover' are, they can cover a range of 100 meters at most, and they still rely on sound waves to detect further afield.

When Zhou Qingfeng first entered the deep sea, he still had some thoughts of exploring the secrets, hoping to find some treasures. But the whole seabed is smooth, and there are no shipwrecks, let alone treasures. Human-made garbage is everywhere on the seabed.

Last night, I tried my hand at teasing the 'Ildire', and tested the power of the 'Deep Sea Cruiser''s 100-meter-long tentacles and the destructive power of its mouthparts.

It turned out that for a submarine, a slight hole in the hull was enough to make the crew inside the submarine defenseless in the event of a natural disaster.

The Ranger also has a terrifying property, its body surface is extremely soft, very similar to the properties of seawater, and it has good absorption and penetration of sound waves.

Passive sonar will hardly detect it, and active sonar detection will be greatly weakened. It's as if you're invisible in the middle of the ocean.

Zhou Qingfeng slept at a depth of more than 1,000 meters that night, and woke up the next day to hear a lot of movement on the sea. He immediately knew what was going on, and was ready to play a big joke on the search and rescue personnel.

In the statue state, the 'Deep Sea Ranger' is only the size of a palm. In the shuttle submersible state, it is about three meters in diameter, fifteen meters long, and can reach speeds of 100 knots per hour.

It can revert to the state of a super giant octopus, its speed is reduced to thirty knots, but it is ten meters in diameter and more than 100 meters in length, making it an authentic behemoth.

The Ranger transformed into an indescribable Cthulhu monster, its thick tentacles churning violently in the water, and its huge octopus eyes glowing with an eerie light, and it rushed to the surface at high speed.

The poor three divers, dressed in heavy gear, slowly sank closer to the 'Ildire'. They vaguely saw the submarine and felt that it was in good condition - it had not exploded, it had not sunk to the bottom, and it might have encountered some mechanical problems.

But that is the end of the judgment.

Divers went deeper than thirty meters, and the underwater searchlights emitted strong light, and the Type 209 submarine more than fifty meters long could already be seen. The latter floated silently in the seawater, motionless.

However, the diver's attention was quickly drawn to another condition – there seemed to be a bright light on the bottom of the sea. The light is still getting bigger and bigger, and it is rapidly approaching.

This inexplicable situation turned into a wired communication between the divers and the rescue vessel, and the following conversation was had with the rescue commander on the surface.

"The 'Ildire' is in relatively stable condition and no serious damage has been found."

"The surface currents are also very stable, and the submarine is moving eastward at a speed of about two or three knots."

"Wait..... we found something strange. What seems to be something underwater? There is a bright light. ”

"Oh......, I can't believe my eyes."

"What the hell is this? What do I see? ”

"Oh...... no! It rushed up, it was approaching us. ”

"For God's sake, pull us up quickly."

"Hell, do something? We don't want to die! ”

The diver's words changed from calm to extreme horror, and their shouts were carried with irresistible tremors. They are anxious, they are afraid, they are incoherent.

The people on the surface rescue boat were baffled.

Everything came too fast.

The sea next to the rescue boat suddenly and violently swelled, like an undersea volcano erupting. The reporters and residents who watched the excitement around were excited, and all kinds of cameras were focused on the rough sea.

Everyone's minds were full of speculation, and the most daring thing was that 'the submarine had come up from the water by freeing itself'.

But reality is always beyond imagination!

As everyone stared at the surface of the sea inexplicably, a dozen terrifying thick tentacles stretched out from the surging waves. It is more than a meter in diameter and sticks high above the sea and reaches into the air.

The pale tentacles curled, entangled, and twitched in the air, like an unknown thing from another time and space, or like a human nightmare from a science fiction movie. With a slight wave, it drove the waves and entangled the rescue ship of more than 1,000 tons.

Wow...... everyone let out a frightened scream, as if the end had come. There was endless madness in this scream, and it was a visceral fear.

The sea is boiling! Humanity is going to boil! The world is going to boil too!

The legendary sea monster has arrived.
