"Let me see too, little brother with a long mouth, turn your head a little away, don't touch me."
"Well, this sea cave is indeed strange, unlike anything I've seen before."
"Isn't it, Dean Kato, you've seen this again?"
"Well, I've seen it before when I was doing research with other students, but it's not that big."
While I was staring at the image from the drone on my phone, the nearest long-beak, stallion, and Kato Takashi also came over and stared intently at the screen for a lively discussion.
In fact, sea caves are not too rare in the global seas, and in many famous resorts, sea caves exist as attractions and diving mecca, but the eyes of death seen through drones are beyond my previous knowledge of sea caves.
Like other sea caves, the Eye of Death has a circular appearance, with a circular reef belt enclosing it in the center, and three shorter reef belts extending from the top of the circle, because the water in the cave is darker than the outside, making it look like a huge eye, staring at the sky all the time, just from the appearance, it is very appropriate to call it the Eye of Death.
The tide was surging in and out of the cave, and the tide was now rising, and the water at the mouth of the cave swirled around a whirlpool as if it could suck anything into it.
"Dean Kato, have you figured it out?" I asked.
"Well, time is limited, I can only use the Gaussian projection to make a rough calculation, wait, okay, the results are out, I hope you must be mentally prepared. It is about 800 meters in diameter, and its origin is about the same as that of other sea caves, and from the distribution of the edge reef, it is believed that it was formed during the Ice Age, and it is estimated that it was originally a large karst cave, but as the sea level rises, the roof of the cave collapses, so it becomes an underwater cave. Because all the caves are submerged in water and lead to the sea, we also call it the 'bottomless pit'. Taka Kato quickly entered various parameters on the microcomputer, and then came up with preliminary data analysis results about the Eye of Death.
"Whew, it's only 800 meters in diameter, let's wait for the low tide, enter it and find out!" Said the stallion.
"I'm not finished yet, in my experience, this sea cave with a diameter of 800 meters, the cave range under it can cover at least 300 square kilometers, how are you going to explore? However, Xiaoma is not completely wrong, and more detailed information can only be obtained when the tide is low. But to find traces of ancient tombs in it, it is difficult even with manned small submarines. Kato Taka put away the computer on his lap and said with a headache.
After Taka Kato finished his analysis, everyone fell into a brief silence for a while.
No one knew that this would happen, and we would need to enter the Eye of Death to take a closer look, but we had a limited number of oxygen cylinders, and obviously there was no way to delay us underwater for too long, even if we had dual oxygen cylinders for everyone.
I deliberately let the drone fly over the Eye of Death and continue to fly forward until the signal starts to weaken, and there is an endless sea in front of it, and there is no possibility of a large tomb.
No matter how powerful Xu Fu is, it is impossible to build the mausoleum in the depths of the ocean 2,000 years ago.
The dragon hunting technique has also lost its usefulness here, even if Yuan Tiangang is resurrected, it is impossible for him to find dragon points in a place where there is sea water in all directions, so I have reason to believe that Xu Fu's ancient tomb is absolutely inseparable from the Eye of Death!
For each bucket, we bring enough tools and supplies with us, and we carry as many items as we can when we expect to need them.
But plans can't keep up with the changes, and no team can guarantee that they will be ready for all the contingencies.
The difference between the rookie team and the strong team will be reflected at this time, otherwise how can Liuwei always maintain the NO1 status of the tomb robber family in the long years of 2000?
"Uncle Manjiro, where is the closest we can get to observe? When the tide will ebb, can you estimate it? I thought about it and asked.
"We can go around to the reef belt in the middle above the hole, but our ship's fuel tanks are almost at the bottom. The tide will only recede when it gets dark, and if we are in other seas, we can wait until it gets dark before we act, but I can't be sure if 'that thing' was blown up or not, in case we happen to run into it, I don't mind dying with it, but Miss and Ouyang are in charge, what should you do? Manjiro said as he plunged his palm into the sea water on another rubber boat.
"Such precious oil can't be wasted, but fortunately, Uncle Manjiro reminded us early just now, and the position we are in now has not been greatly affected by the current. Although it is more convenient at low tide, as Uncle Manjiro said, we don't have that much time to wait until it gets dark, so while there is still a lot of time, let's go straight to it! What do you guys think? "I put forward a proposal based on the current situation.
"Okay, so decide." Yue Mingmo nodded.
"Whoa, whoa~" Everyone stopped talking nonsense after hearing the decision, and quickly took out the oars that were placed in the gap of the rubber boat and began to row hard.
Since there are only six oars, we use them in rotation, and those with good physical strength can row a little longer, and those with poor physical strength can be replaced early.
"Hehe, this oar is much lighter than I've used before, and it doesn't have any trouble paddling in the water! Is it a carbon fiber oar? The stallion asked.
He was rowing with both hands, so he didn't press the radio button on the communicator so that the people on our boat could hear it.
"Yes, this kind of oar is not only lightweight, but also extremely tough, and can be used as a weapon in case of danger, similar to a sapper shovel, but because it is too tough, it should not be able to fight a sapper shovel." I said.
"Well, Taku-san, you don't have to paddle so fast, they can't keep up with your movements." After all, Kato Taka is a pure reader, so we didn't let him row, we are different from him, we also work part-time, no, part-time archaeology.
Looking at the dead horse, looking at the short distance, we finally circled around the "eyelashes" of the three reef bands on the periphery of the Eye of Death after several rotations.
Once we got here, we could clearly feel the sudden increase in the speed of the current, and we could drift down the current towards the entrance of the Eye of Death's cave even without rowing.
"Damn, you don't want to go straight in, do you?" The stallion shouted.
"Paddle to the reef in the middle as best you can, and secure the boat as soon as Manjiro gives the order!" Lao Zhou put down the binoculars and said.
"Whoa, whoa~" We followed Lao Zhou's instructions and paddled forward with the strength of breastfeeding.
"No, the current here is too fast, if we don't fix it, we will soon be washed out of the reef by the current!" I said.
"Da Da Da Da~" The motors of the two rubber boats started.
With the help of external forces, we were able to move the dinghy in the right direction in no time.
"Ah Da Ah Xi, do it!" Manjiro's voice came through the communicator.
