Chapter 54: The Seaman

Hearing the movement behind us, where did we dare to look back, we could only run forward desperately. I'm afraid that if I swim slowly, I will be scalded to death by the magma of the submarine volcano. However, it is somewhat reassuring that we are now at the bottom of the sea, and we do not have to worry about being buried by volcanic ash.

Historical records record that Pompeii, another ancient empire other than Atlantis, was buried by volcanic ash. It is said that when it was excavated by archaeologists, people still worked as they did in their lifetimes. It can be seen how swift and terrible the volcanic ash is. People didn't have time to hide and were buried alive.

Compared to Pompeii, we are fortunate that at the bottom of the sea, the volcanic ash cannot float at all.

In this way, we swam for an unknown amount of time, and we did not stop until we were exhausted. It wasn't until the sound behind him gradually subsided that he dared to turn around and check the situation of the volcano. Just in case, we chose to hide behind a huge rock and check what was going on.

Because the distance is so far away, it is impossible to see the situation on the other side of the submarine volcano. I could only see a red patch, constantly tumbling outward, and then slowly weakening. There is also smoke and water vapor all around, and it looks like "thick smoke billowing". It is estimated that the volcanic ash cools down after encountering seawater. br

Lisa and I couldn't keep our mouths together in surprise, even though we couldn't see it clearly. At this time, I saw the old ghost unhurriedly take out a black cylindrical thing from the side pocket of the rucksack, and take a closer look at the place where the volcano erupted. Look at the expression on his face, it's like the climate in spring. Fast changing.

When I looked closely, I realized that he was holding the scope of a sniper rifle. It was only then that I suddenly remembered that this scope can be used as a telescope in many cases. In some ways, it's more than that. I can't help but admire the old ghost, this kid, you can get anything.

Seeing that he saw it with relish, I couldn't help but feel jealous, so I snatched it up. The old ghost had seen almost everything, and he didn't see anything clearly after watching me for a long time, so he didn't snatch it from me again, and let me watch. Then. I really got to see what was going on on the other side of the volcano:

I saw viscous and reddish magma. From the crater, it is constantly churning outward. It reminded me of when I first came to Atlantis, and it was the same magma I encountered under the bridge. The extremely hot magma suddenly cools after encountering seawater, forming intense transpiration of water vapor and bubbles. It's like sticking a red-hot iron rod into cold water.

And after the magma meets the icy seawater. It freezes suddenly due to the drop in temperature. In an instant, it turned into solid, jet-black volcanic rock. These cooled volcanic rocks form layers of overflowing rock layers, which accumulate into a special-shaped mountain structure.

This is a real and shocking qiē in front of you. I was dumbfounded. Seeing Lisa waiting anxiously, he didn't look any more and handed the scope to Lisa again. This bizarre scene, naturally, Lisa was also dumbfounded. Her look of surprise was palpable, and she was obviously shocked by the scene in front of her.

Suddenly, Lisa screamed from inside the mask, "Lie down!" ”

Although the old ghost and I were vaguely audible, we still understood what Lisa meant by the gestures we coordinated. I didn't understand why she asked us to do it, but we did as she wanted.

As soon as we lay down on the rock, we saw something black in front of us, and thought about it, and rushed towards us in droves!

When we got closer, we realized that it was a dense school of fish. There are so many of them, I guess I have never seen a scene in my life. It's not in the thousands, it's estimated that there are hundreds of millions.

The three of them were frightened and hurriedly crouched in the crevices of the rocks. Suddenly, a "black cloud" passed overhead, accompanied by the sound of "sparse uproar". It's like the movement of a storm, and it's like the shock of a flash flood. Although he didn't dare to look up, he still caught a glimpse of the huge formation of the fish with his eyes.

This huge school of fish must have been affected by the submarine volcanic eruption just now, and the sudden change in water temperature and the violent "boom" sound naturally frightened the fish to scatter and run desperately. As the school of fish passed, we found that many of the small fish had died, and the stiff corpses were floating in the water.

I don't know if it was because of the large number of fish that were squeezed, or because of the change in water temperature caused by the volcanic eruption. In short, he fell victim to the eruption.

The most frightening thing is that in a short time, many huge fish swarmed in. The largest is the whale, the size of several houses. And the most vicious is the shark, which opens its bloody mouth and clashes back and forth among the fish, and eats a big meal beautifully.

Seeing this formation, where could we stay, we hurriedly fled in the opposite direction. But of course, he was not stupid enough to flee in the direction of the volcano, but slightly staggered the direction of the fish. The huge fish didn't have the energy to pay attention to us, but were busy with their own food.

Just after we had swam some distance, we discovered another spectacular and terrifying scene: on the surface of the sea below where we were floating, there were groups of people standing in an irregular formation!

Because we were not mentally prepared, when our spotlights hit them, we were shocked when we laughed. It is a little comforting to know that the people at the bottom of the sea are still and have their eyes closed.

At first, the old ghost and Lisa and I thought it was an underwater statue of an ancient building under the sea. for their heads, faces, and bodies were covered with moss. Some of them even have corals growing on them!

But when you look closely, it doesn't look like an underwater statue. Because no matter in the superb carving technology, it is impossible to carve such a vivid stone carving. Originally, the old ghost and I wanted to study it carefully, but Lisa hurriedly dragged us away. What she means is that more is better than less. We had no choice but to stop looking at these undersea people who didn't know if they were real or not.

At this moment, a terrifying scene happened: due to the large movement of whales and sharks preying on the fish, coupled with the unique sound of the fish. These people at the bottom of the sea suddenly opened their eyes and actually moved!

Their faces were stiff and slow, and they approached the dying schools of fish unhurriedly......

We didn't have time to take a closer look, so we quickly avoided these underwater people and swam forward. At this moment, I suddenly saw a huge cone-shaped building in front of me. At first glance, it looks like a huge tower of gold!

Just as he wanted to take a closer look, suddenly a figure flashed at the door. If you look closely, it turns out to be a lot!

As soon as she reached out to me, a hand behind her pulled her tight in the darkness. At this moment, I saw the owner of the hand, the priestess of Atlantis who had been following us like a ghost......
