Chapter 248: Ice
PS: PS: I received a monthly pass from the LSL bookworm in the middle of the month, and I won't run naked this month. Thank you LSL Bookworm.
The water in the underground river was colder than I expected, especially after diving a few meters, the water temperature was bone-chilling. It's really a strange thing, I've heard that there are underground hot springs, but are there still underground cold springs?
The one-eyed beast flashlight has a waterproof function, and the sealing performance is excellent, my flashlight has been knocked over, touched, and used it as a hammer to knock people, but at the moment in the water but there is no problem, the light is still straight, shining
A large area in front of me lit up.
The water was clean inside, there was nothing in it, not even plankton could be seen. Again, I didn't see Jack.
I shined the flashlight to the bottom of the water, and the clean water is very permeable, and the one-eyed flashlight shines a long distance in this environment, even if it is far less penetrating than in the air, but the irradiation distance is still ten meters
Above. However, beyond the distance of the cyclops' light, it was a deep darkness. I didn't see the bottom of the underground river.
My heart sank all at once. I had the urge to hit the surface and get back to shore. I don't believe there will be nothing in the water at such depths.
My calm mind prevented me from making this stupid move, and I chose to turn off the cyclops. If there are horrible creatures in this underground river, the strong smell of blood on me is enough for it
It's attractive, and there's no need to use a flashlight to light its meals.
I don't think I'm capable of fighting any aquatic beasts in the water, and the wisest thing to do is to swim to the other shore as fast as possible.
The underground river has a very slow current, and I can feel the speed of the water most clearly in the water, and this speed of the current does not affect my swimming in any way, and I can even swim to the underground river with the help of the current
Downstream on the opposite bank. This will make it possible to get rid of the threat from the air at least as soon as possible. I think Jack would have made that choice as well.
After entering this mysterious state. My judgment and acuity have undoubtedly improved a lot, but it doesn't increase my stamina. I try to forget my fears and concentrate on paddling.
But it didn't take long for my body to feel cold and stiff, and the heat in my body was absorbed by the cold underground water, and my limbs were no longer felt. It's just a mechanical, stiff stroke. And my body is getting heavier and heavier, as if my own weight is increasing, it has exceeded the proportion of water, and if I don't paddle, I will sink to the bottom of the underground river.
What's worse is that my diving time has also been greatly reduced. Normally, my dive time is four and a half minutes, which is not my limit, I can do it easily. But this time it's clear
It took less than three minutes, and although my watch was broken, I was in my current state. I'm talking about the mental state, I can be very focused, I can clearly estimate the time, and I definitely didn't reach three points
Bell. But I couldn't hold it anymore, the oxygen level in my blood couldn't keep me paddling, and I think the lack of oxygen would soon affect my thinking.
I have to get back to the surface right now, or I'll choke to death.
I changed the angle of my body and the direction of my stroke, trying to swim diagonally towards the water in an angled position. But I found that things were not as simple as I thought. I can't do it anymore, it's like there's one underwater
A huge suction was dragging me underwater.
I was a little nervous. Yes. I was a little nervous, but not so nervous that I was at a loss because my mind was clear, I knew what to do, and I took action right away.
I first gave up the angled ascent and instead stood upright in the water. Paddle down with your hands and legs. In the cold water, the AK47 felt like it weighed a thousand pounds, but my arms and legs were numb
He didn't listen to the command, and every time he lifted up and paddled the water, he had to exert his physical strength, and his movements were very uncoordinated. The brain seems to be losing control of its limbs.
But I was very sane. My mind is also unusually sharp, and I know that's not the case, and I'm more inclined to have gravity underwater, because I use significantly more force to lift my arms.
My brain was still able to control my arms and legs, but the nerves at the ends of my fingers and toes were numb, probably caused by a sharp drop in body temperature. My body has no caloric supplements.
I knew I didn't have much time left, the tightness in my chest and the sharp pain in my lungs irritated my nerves, and I let go of what little negativity I had, just worried that the terminal nerves would freeze and desperately squeal
Paddle down.
I can clearly feel that my body is floating very slowly, but I am not worried, I know that my dive is not deep, as long as my body is up, I will soon be back on the surface and breathing
to the fresh air.
Suddenly I saw the light. I thought it was a hallucination for a moment, and then I realized it wasn't.
A little above me, I'm afraid it's only thirty centimeters at a level level, but it's not above me, and it looks quite far away from me. The light flashed in my direction
, and soon turned to other directions.
From the speed at which the light turned, I could tell that it would not move so fast on the surface of the water. And it should be Jack who emitted this light, it is Jack's Cyclops flashlight.
My head popped out of the water, and I desperately breathed in the air as I looked in the direction of the light.
It was clear from the water that the light was not far away, and in the dark space, the light was so bright and dazzling and chaotic. It doesn't shine to a certain place, or even to a certain place
An approximate location, such as on the water, in the air, or on the opposite shore. It was shaking violently, and the flashlight shook like a stage laser.
I watched for a few seconds and suddenly realized that he wasn't lighting up, but hitting something with a cyclops flashlight. I knew right away that Jack was in trouble.
I quickly grabbed the flashlight. I'm going to find out what trouble Jack is having first. He's got a weapon, a miniature submachine gun, and that's more lethal than a one-eyed flashlight. He didn't work
Guns, but with a flashlight, I can't understand, I have to figure out what he's fighting. Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to help him.
When I came to the surface, I was slightly nervous and relaxed. For a boy who grew up by the sea, there are a hundred ways to keep yourself from sinking into the water as long as he is on the water.
But the moment I grabbed the cyclops flashlight and lit it, I almost sank to the bottom, or at least my heart sank.
As I said, the further down the river went, the cooler it became, and my body and limbs were almost frozen, and my fingers and toes were unconscious. This situation did not ease when we reached the surface, I
It is thought to be caused by the lack of caloric replenishment in the body.
But when the flashlight is lit up, when its light is reflected on my hand, it is not directly on my hand, but only on my hand. I saw a thick layer on my hands
of transparent ice. (To be continued......)
