Chapter Forty-Six: Deep-Sea Distress Hangs by a Thread
A few days later, when they learned that there was a shipwreck that had been wrecked hundreds of years ago near the underwater pyramid of Bermuda's "Magic Triangle", Mary and eight other members of the expedition team took another scientific research ship
Came to the "Magic Triangle" sea area, ready to salvage the cargo ship at a depth of about 360 meters. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
--according to
Sonar positioning, Mary and her entourage determined the exact position of the freighter between the two pyramids. They then anchored the research vessel about 50 meters away from the sunken vessel. because
The freighter was located in a sea depth of about 360 meters, which was difficult to salvage using ordinary diving equipment, so the experienced Mary prepared a submersible. But the submersible is not large, and it can only accommodate it at a time
3 people diving. Anxious to see the shipwreck between the two pyramids, Mary decides to take two members of the team to dive into the shipwreck first, and Mike, who fears for her safety, insists on accompanying her
Perilous Trona.
Mary and Trona donned wetsuits and walked into the deep-sea submersible with oxygen equipment. When the sunlight outside the porthole was flooded by the sea, Mary touched the cross on her chest and muttered a prayer: "
O God, bless us with peace! Mike, who understood her psychology, clasped her hand and said, "Honey, we will make it!" But the trio never imagined in any way that they would face one
A huge life-and-death crisis.
More than 10 minutes later, the submersible, guided by sonar, dived to the bottom of the sea, where the wreck was located. In front of Mary and Mike, a badly decayed cargo ship about 42 meters long lies quietly in the sea
Bottom. After a long period of washing, the shipwreck's hull is covered with a variety of aquatic plants, making it even more mysterious. After observing for a long time, Mike decides to take Trona and Mary deeper
Inside the ship.
--Trona was at the front of the three, and soon approached the hatch of the shipwreck, which was so rotten that only the door frame remained. Suddenly, Mike and Mary, who were close behind, heard Trona
He cried out in pain: "Ouch! Mike was startled and walked up to Trona in a few steps. He saw Trona clutching his left forearm in pain, red blood between his fingers
The liquid came out and slowly drifted away along the sea. Trona's wetsuit on his left forearm had been torn open with a few centimeters long, and blood was pouring from where it had been torn
Pop up. The constant blood gushing out made Mike understand that the wound on Trona's left forearm must be not small, and there was no way to bandage Trona here. After a little contemplation, Mike decided to take Trona
He was returned to the submersible and then bandaged to stop the bleeding. He was about to tell Trona these intentions when Mary, who was standing behind her, suddenly cried out in horror: "Honey, what is that? ”
--Following Mary's finger, Mike saw a black-covered creature swimming swiftly towards the three of them. That one
The creature is at least 2 meters long, full of terrifying teeth, and looks extremely mysterious in the cold darkness of the deep sea. The way the creatures in front of him swim let Mike, who has a certain understanding of marine life, know that this is
A blood-sucking lamprey that can emit up to 180 volts, so he softly said to Mary, "Don't be afraid, it's a blood-sucking lamprey." Then, he stepped forward and helped Trona to turn around and dived
Walk slowly in the direction where the water vessel is located. But as soon as they turned around, Mary, who was beside them, cried out again in horror: "God, what does it want to do?" Mary screamed in terror, holding back the pain
Trona felt the injured left forearm wrapped tightly around something soft. He looked down and saw that what was wrapped around his left forearm was the mouth of the black blood-sucking electric eel. Overwhelmed in Trona
, the lamprey unleashed a bioelectric current of up to 180 volts in an attempt to stun its opponent in one fell swoop; Fortunately, the diving suit of the opponent is equipped to absorb the current of deep-sea organisms (such as electric rays, electric eels and other enemies
to emit bioelectric current higher than 180-250 volts). At this moment, the suction cup on the tip of the lamprey was placed on his wound. Then, to his horror, he felt blood gushing from the wound
The speed suddenly increased. After a few moments, Trona, recovering from his fear, cried out in pain: "My God, this ugly creature is sucking my blood!" ”
