Chapter 162: The Old Man Who Came Again

"Bah...... ...... "Humpback whales are still calling and following behind.

The voice reminded Linghime, and she suddenly remembered the old scar she had glimpsed on the whale's head before leaving. Suddenly recalled, he shouted at Captain Akang:

"Captain, are the calves we brought out of the Invisible Island humpback whales? Did the calf have an extra wound on its head after escaping Shark Valley? ”

"Hmmm! Are you referring to the young whale we named Ayi? ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and seemed to have understood. Turning to the humpback whale that was trailing behind him, checking the scar on the whale's head and picking up a memory that was almost lost. It's been so long, what story has this little guy experienced in the middle of what he has been like today?

Coming to the humpback whales, the feelings of each other seem so familiar.

"Ayi, Ayi!" Lingji shouted.

"Bah...... ...... babble," the humpback whale responded, seeming to be happy.

It turns out that there is no whale pet owner, and there is a certain sense of communication between different species. This humpback whale was indeed the original Ayi, and it didn't take long for its joy to change its corner. Writhing anxiously with an anxious body language, and swirling around the four of them, the big fin on one side swinging vigorously.

Everyone looked at Captain Akang and wondered what the captain had to say. The captain also understood:

"Ayi seems to have something to tell us that it will not be happy if we leave, or we should grab its body and let it take us where it wants to take us."

No one objected, and the four of them crouched on the whale's back and grabbed its skin with their hands. The whale stopped chirping, swam with its big half-black and half-white tail, and sailed into the mysterious deep sea like a big black cannonball. What's the secret there? All eyes are on it.

Ayi looks very strong today, but there still seem to be many doubts about it. Humpback cetaceans are also a species that survive in social groups, but where are its family members? Did you also get separated because of the war? Or is it just that it has gone away on its own and become a lone traveler from all over the world? Anyway, it seems to be an emissary with a mission now, what will it want to take the four of them to? Will there be something or people that the four would like to have?

There is a section of the bright road and a section of the dark road in the deep sea, like a tunnel of light flickering and dimming, staggered between light and dark. It's a little confusing, and there's a sense of misalignment. Finally, at the bottom of a mysterious valley, Ayi slowed down and came to a stop in front of a stone cave.

The cave is not very large, but it is a little bright. Lingji didn't think much of it, and couldn't wait to swim into the cave. A large black mussel shell appeared in the hole, large enough to burrow into two or three people, with strings of bubbles emerging from the cracks of the shell.

Without waiting for the other three to arrive, Lingji called out excitedly, "Kiki, are you there?"

She reached out to pull up the shell of the giant mussel, but it was so heavy that she couldn't pull it up. At this time, the other three rushed to reach out and lift the large shell that covered it.

As the four of them struggled to lift the shell cover, the gurgling bubbles floated and dispersed, and they were all stunned when they saw the situation inside. The person staying inside is not Kiki, but the long-missing marine biologist Gurus. He was in terrible condition, bruised and dying.

Why is he here? What has he been through during this time? Where have you been? Many questions were answered, and Captain Akon was amazed, the secrets that Gurus knew must be very valuable, and he could not die.

The captain reached out to pick up Gurus's head, one hand trying to feel his pulse from his wrist. But he didn't want Gurus to wake up with two coughs, he looked around with wide eyes and alarmed eyes like frightened, and gasped for air.

"Gurus, are you awake?" The captain said happily: "Do you want to care?" We'll take you to the doctor right away. ”

Gasping for breath, Gurus was like a man who had just returned from great suffering, and before he could say anything, he waved his trembling hands in refusal. He seems to have something to say first, and nothing else matters. Everyone present knew that he had to catch his breath for a while, because the palpitations had not subsided, and there was not only fear in his eyes, but also a kind of relief sadness.

After a long time, Gurus finally calmed his anger and said weakly: "You don't have to save me, I deliberately chose this place as my grave, I can't save it, I'm a sinner. Cough! Cough! Ahem......"

"Why? Why? You need to be treated. The captain said to help him up.

"Don't pull it, listen to me, there is something more important to tell you, while I still have a breath......"

Did Gurus really make a big mistake by refusing to let the captain save him? I saw that he was calm, and a sad story unfolded in his memory:

"Ever since I was taken by Arcantero, I have been taken to a place blindfolded. My pet was also locked in an opaque container, and although I was blindfolded so I couldn't see the way, I knew with my perception of the Earth's magnetic field that I was being taken to a cave beneath an ice-filled island near the South Pole.

The island resembles a crater, with a lake in the center of the mountain that connects to the sea, and in which a pod of whales are housed and raised. Every once in a while there are a few fewer whales and every once in a while a few new whales are brought in from the bottom channel of the lake to replenish them.

The island turned out to be a secret base, owned by a descendant of a down-and-out aristocratic mermaid named Argo. His favorite is gooseneck barnacles, which he uses to mark each whale to identify their movements and physical condition, making it easier to keep whales.

You must be wondering what he does with whales? At the beginning, Argo was persuaded by the invisible man Dongdong Monster to serve Arcantero and fight with them. One of the steps in the plan is to kill the current whale pet owners. So the whales were caught in batches and brought to the island, so that there would be no whale pet owners in the way, and then the whales were raised for other purposes.

Originally, on that island, several marine biologists had been imprisoned. The goal is the same, to have these experts use genetic mutation technology to breed and breed super-large sea beasts for them, and make the sea beasts do their bidding. And these experts are all dead people who have been recorded in the archives of the Taiping Imperial City, and somehow appeared alive on that island.
