Inside the dimly lit cockpit.

Meng Lei's eyes were glazed, and he stood in place in a daze, his brain blank.

Yes, it is indeed a complete blank.

It's as if the ability to think has been completely drained, and I can no longer think at all.

He just stared motionlessly in the direction of the porthole.

It's like a sculpture, completely petrified on the spot.

In fact, he can't be entirely blamed for such a physiological reaction.

If any normal person is present, I am afraid that the state will never be much better than him.

Imagine being at a pitch-black seabed at a depth of almost three thousand meters.

In addition to the exposed reef and a large amount of white organic matter.

It could almost be said that it was a completely silent and cold life forbidden. District.

In such an environment, a submarine that goes with the flow, without recruiting anyone or messing with anyone, is driving well.

Suddenly, I bumped into someone for no apparent reason!

It's like when you turn your head on a plane and suddenly see someone knocking on your glass outside the window.

Absurd, weird, thriller!

Whoever encounters it will have to be stunned on the spot!

What's more, this is not yet in the safe sea area of peace and tranquility.

Just five minutes ago, an incomparably terrifying abyssal beast roamed through the vicinity.

The momentum is like a great earthquake!

Not to mention people, even the surrounding marine life is all gone!

The point is, this is different from the painted skin monster that Meng Lei encountered in his previous dream.

Not only is this man wearing the player's standard wetsuit, but he's also alive!

Therefore, it is normal for the brain to be unable to comprehend this absurd phenomenon for a while, and to have a brief moment of crash.

Meng Lei stood stunned for a moment, and suddenly rubbed his eyes.

Outside the porthole.

The vicissitudes of life, the pale, almost bloodless human face still existed.

And through the transparent hood of the wetsuit, it is clearly printed on the porthole.

In addition, the arm that kept shaking, as if he was greeting Meng Lei in a friendly manner, pounded the porthole again and again.

Make a "winter winter winter" sound.

Everything is extremely real, but it is completely contrary to the absurdity and weirdness of the truth.

"Hallucination...... It must be a hallucination! ”

"Hehe, the terrifying abyss banshee is really terrifying, it's been so long, and the spiritual impact on Lao Tzu hasn't completely subsided!"

"Awesome, awesome!"

A whisper in his ear, a twisted and swaying figure in front of him.

Memories that have not yet dissipated are back.

The indescribable feeling is not fear, but can inspire misery, despair and madness in the depths of the heart.

It's chilling!

Meng Lei vaguely felt that the scream made by the Abyss Banshee before might still be affecting him.

What I saw before me was nothing more than a hallucination of insanity.

Because it's completely illogical.

So, while complaining to relieve the tension.

Meng Lei silently cheered himself up.

"It's not enough to play deep-sea Asmr with Lao Tzu, and then start playing naked-eye 3D again?"

"Hehe, that's naïve."

"With Lao Tzu's firm will, if I get recruited again, my Lao Tzu will not be surnamed Meng!"

He spat a mouthful of blood on the ground.

The earth-shaking back and forth just now can make him fall hard.

Not only was his head broken, but his tongue was also bitten, and it was extremely miserable.

At that moment, Meng Lei directly ignored the person outside the porthole, dried the other party into the sea, turned around and went back to the living cabin to receive a glass of water.

When I came back, I had an extra cigarette in my hand.

Then, he walked to the porthole, a plastic bottle in his left hand, and a cigarette in his right.

It's like walking in a park to see animals, staring directly at the middle-aged man in a wetsuit outside the window.

From time to time, he spit a smoke ring at each other through the glass.

In his eyes, there was a faint hint of provocation.

"The best way to overcome fear is to face it!"

"The weird monster Lao Tzu of the painted skin parasite has carried it over, just a hallucination, what can I do?!"

The initial symptoms of Secondary 2 disease are revealed.

Meng Lei stood by the window and muttered to himself, making a series of slashing and slashing movements from time to time.

It was as if an invisible sword qi could dispel the illusion in front of him.

This scene stunned the middle-aged man outside the porthole.

The action of banging on the porthole also stopped, and he looked at Meng Lei in the cockpit like a fool.

The already pale face suddenly floated with a hint of fear.

It's like a normal person who sees a patient in a psychiatric hospital having a seizure.

Subconsciously feel timid and want to stay away.

Such a realistic change in expression was naturally seen by Meng Lei.

A touch of disdain hooked the corners of his mouth, and raised his eyebrows defiantly.

"Heh, it's like the real thing!"

"Since it's an illusion, if you have the ability, you can break through the physical barrier and come in and fight with Lao Tzu!"

"Come on, come here~"

With a cigarette in his mouth, he hooked his finger at the window with a proud face.

At this moment, Meng Lei was a little inflated.

He felt that he had broken through the illusion, and the after-effects of the spirit attack of the Banshee of the Deep Sea could no longer affect him in any way.

But at this moment.

The middle-aged man dressed in diving outside the window seemed to suddenly notice something.

His eyes glanced at his arm, and the fear on his face instantly turned into panic.

He tried his best to prop himself up from the porthole, turned the back of his arm over, and showed it to Meng Lei.

However, the Guixu was sailing at full speed at this time.

The man was pushed to the front of the submarine, bearing the force from the front and the pressure of the current from the back.

The whole person is attached to the glass, and it is difficult to have other movements.

Meng Lei saw a painful look on his face, and he was not surprised.

He leaned his face forward, tapped the glass lightly, and laughed presumptuously:

"Hahaha, it looks like you're about to die!"

"Victory belongs to the strong after all, let your illusions grow, my heart is firm, and I will not move!"

"Look at your ......"

"Huh?"

At this time, it was when Meng Lei's symptoms became more and more serious.

The man outside the window finally gritted his teeth and raised his arm, shaking it at Meng Lei.

Then, he made a stop gesture and smashed the glass hard.

It seems that he wants Meng Lei to stop quickly.

Everything was so real that there was no delay in the sound of smashing the glass.

Meng Lei was slightly stunned, and finally realized that something seemed to be wrong about the situation.

Look at the other person's deliberately shaking arm.

He suddenly found that the oxygen content indication of the other party's diving suit had approached the limit critical value, and began to frantically flash the alarm.

"This ......"

"Isn't this really a player?! Holy, how is this possible?! ”

Looking at the middle-aged man outside the window in a daze, Meng Lei's brain was a pulp lake.

At this moment, he suddenly couldn't understand.

In the depths of this dark ocean, how could a player suddenly appear out of nowhere?

Moreover, even if you are a player, you should be driving a submarine!

Why are you walking here alone, wearing a wetsuit?

It's such a coincidence that you let yourself run into it?!

For a while, countless doubts came to his heart, and Meng Lei was stunned.

After a few moments, the man outside the window seemed to be getting more and more anxious.

The amplitude of the banging on the portholes is getting louder and louder, and the crash in the cockpit is getting louder and louder.

Meng Lei finally came back to his senses and realized that he might have really misunderstood!

"Damn, that's a big joke!"

Meng slapped his forehead, Meng Lei hurriedly turned around, rushed to the center console in two steps, and pressed the hover button.

The Guiru, which is breaking the waves forward, has gradually weakened its kinetic energy.

Finally, it slowly stopped.

Outside the window, the middle-aged man who was clinging to the porthole immediately looked like a drowning man, grabbed the only life-saving straw in the big waves, broke free from the shackles of pressure, swung his limbs desperately, and swam quickly in the direction of the airlock chamber.

Seeing this, Meng Lei also hurriedly came out of the cockpit, and without saying a word, he put the diving suit on his body first.

Then, grab a shotgun that was placed in a standing cabinet.

The muzzle of the gun was raised, and it was aimed at the position of the airlock chamber.

Even though he knew that the other party was a player, Meng Lei did not relax his vigilance at all.

The origin of this person is unknown, and the way he appears is extremely absurd and weird.

Meng Lei had to prepare for the worst.

It is already his greatest mercy to let the other party get on the boat and pick up a small life before the oxygen runs out.

Soon, Meng Lei was just getting ready.

The sound of seawater pouring in came from the outer hatch of the airlock chamber.

After a few moments, when the pump emptied all the seawater, the internal hatch slowly opened.

A tall figure staggered into Meng Lei's field of vision.

It was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties.

He seemed to be extremely weak, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

Even the weight of the wetsuit can no longer support it.

And his face was very pale.

Either they have severe anemia or have been greatly frightened.

As soon as he entered the door, the whole person collapsed to the ground.

I opened the wetsuit mask and breathed heavily, panting rapidly.

Meng Lei moved his gun downwards and always maintained a high degree of vigilance.

His brows furrowed slightly, and he slowly took a step back, and asked in a deep voice:

"Who are you? Why is it here? ”

The middle-aged man waved his hand weakly and did not speak immediately.

After slowing down for a while, he got up from the ground, and then solemnly bent down at Meng Lei, and said seriously:

"Thank you...... Thank you little brother for saving my life! ”

"If I hadn't met you, I'm afraid my life would really end here!"

"Thank you, thank you!"

As soon as he recovered slightly, the middle-aged man kept thanking Meng Lei again and again.

The tone is sincere, the attitude is serious, and the expression is sincere.

At least on the surface, there is no big problem, and it does not seem to be fake.

However, Meng Lei didn't care about these verbal thanks.

Quietly put his finger on the trigger and continued:

"To answer my question, who are you and why are you here, and what about your submarine?!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man shuddered, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

As if recalling something particularly terrifying, he shook and swallowed heavily to spit.

Then, he shook his head helplessly and said:

"Hey, don't mention it, my submarine won't know where to go for a long time.

It's a great gift that I'm lucky enough to survive, and I didn't have any hope for life until I met you......"

said.

The middle-aged man subconsciously stepped forward, as if he wanted to shake hands with Meng Lei.

You can see Meng Lei's guarded look and the huge muzzle of the gun in front of him.

The arm that was about to be raised suddenly stopped in mid-air.

smiled a little awkwardly, took a step back and returned to the same place, and said to Meng Lei:

"This little brother, don't worry, I have absolutely no malice! It doesn't have to be this way! ”

After speaking, he took a deep breath, stood up straight, and said:

"Officially, my name is Huo Ye, before I came here, I used to be a mechanic, I don't know what to call the little brother?"

Meng Lei still maintained a shooting posture, and said:

"My name is Meng Lei!"

"Meng Lei ......" The middle-aged man nodded slightly, and said, "Then I'll call you Brother Meng." ”

Meng Lei didn't answer, just looked at the other party coldly.

The middle-aged man seemed to feel a little embarrassed.

Coughing lightly, he retreated to the side of the airlock chamber and took off his heavy wetsuit.

At this time, Meng Lei realized that he was indeed wearing a mechanic's standard blue overalls.

The vigilance in my heart suddenly decreased a little.

At least for now, this man should not be lying in terms of identity.

But even so, Meng Lei would not have complete trust in him.

Asked again at the moment:

"What do you mean when you said that the submarine doesn't know where it has drifted? What the hell is going on? ”

The middle-aged man sighed and said helplessly:

"Well, actually, I don't know what's going on.

Just now, I detected an anomaly on my sonar display.

I wanted to try my luck in the water and see if I could get some supplies.

Who knows, I haven't been in the water for a few minutes, and I don't know what kind of monster came out of the sea, and it directly overturned my submarine!

That monster is just too big!

The searchlight of the submarine does not illuminate its whole picture at all!

I just glanced at one of the monster's tentacles, covered in thick hair, almost bigger than my submarine! ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man once again showed a scared look.

Patted his chest. Preserved heart, the way of the rest of the season:

"Truth be told, I've never seen anything so horrible in my life!

I guess it's just a movie I've seen before, what is it called...... Atlantic Ocean......

Anyway, it's the ...... who wears a large mecha and fights with monsters that come out of the cracks in the seabed."

The middle-aged man forgot the words for a while, and he didn't remember them for a long time.

Meng Lei raised his eyebrows and added in a timely manner:

"Pacific Rim?"

"Yes, yes, yes...... Seems to be this! "The middle-aged man slapped it big. Legs, continued: "Anyway, whether he is in the Pacific, Atlantic, or Indian Ocean, he is as big as the monster in it, unimaginably big!" ”

Meng Lei nodded thoughtfully.

For the description of the middle-aged man, Meng Lei has a deep understanding.

The size of the Abyssal Banshee is indeed staggering, and it can be called terrifying!

Even if you get the sci-fi movie in the Pacific Rim, the ranking among monsters will definitely be close to the top three!

Meng Lei finally understood.

Why did this man named Huo Ye appear here wearing only a diving suit.

The feeling of this guy's submarine is to overturn the banshee!

I have to say, this guy is really unlucky.

It is estimated that when he went into the water, he did not turn off the sonar system and was targeted by the Abyss Banshee.

But from another point of view, this guy's luck is also quite against the sky!

In the depths of the vast sea, the submarines are gone, and generally speaking, there is only the end of waiting for death.

However, he was so lucky to be bumped into by Meng Lei.

And when Meng Lei didn't turn on the sonar, he directly slammed into the porthole!

But if the position where he appears is a little more off, even if it is ten meters away!

Meng Lei couldn't be, and he didn't have the energy to notice him.

Because Meng Lei himself was still confused at that time, he did not recover from his previous encounter.

How can you pay attention to anything else?

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to use the word against the sky to describe Huo Ye's luck.

That's an infinite number of times smaller than the odds of winning the jackpot in a lottery ticket!

"Little Brother Meng, you haven't seen that thing, it's just terrifying!"

Huo Ye sat on the ground with a pale face, shaking his head vigorously and sighing, chattering endlessly.

Maybe it's because I haven't talked to someone for too long, or maybe it's because my suppressed emotions can't be released, and I finally found an outlet at this moment.

Once the conversation gate is opened, it is out of control.

"At that time, when I saw such a big thing, I went straight to my submarine and passed by, and I was completely confused.

Luckily, I was outside the submarine, picking up something near a reef beach.

Then, I quickly hid under the reef.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be finished with my submarine in the first place! ”

"However, even if I escaped the first catastrophe, I still couldn't escape the persecution of that monster in the end!"

"The monster overturned my submarine and started roaming around the neighborhood again.

The whole seabed was in chaos with it!

There are undercurrents surging everywhere!

If it were just that, at least I would have been able to hide under the reef for a while.

But later, it actually called!

You know, that monster actually screams!

The sound is huge, like a whale!

And when I heard that voice, my whole body was completely confused, and my body was completely out of control.

It seems that there are a lot of villains chattering in my head.

Suddenly, I seemed to see my daughter, who was waving at me in front.

I didn't even think about it, I just ran out from under the reef and ran at my girl like crazy.

But I couldn't catch up no matter how much I chased her, and I wouldn't stop no matter how much I shouted.

I can only keep chasing, chasing and chasing.

The voices in my head were also encouraging me to catch up with my daughter, catch her, and wake up from a nightmare.

However, the tighter I chased after her, the farther away she got from me.

At the end of the day, I don't know where I went.

The pressure alarm system of the wetsuit began to roar.

I estimate that the depth of the sea area where I was at that time was at least approaching 3,000 meters!

I must have been in the process of diving, and the monster was going to drag me into the deepest part of the abyss!

At this time, the prompt of the pressure alarm system made me sober up a little.

Then I quickly floated up and swam up as hard as I could.

But brother, do you know ......?"

The middle-aged man took a deep breath, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

"That kind of situation, it's really horrible.

I couldn't tell the direction at all, it was pitch black everywhere, and I couldn't see anything.

I don't know where I am, and I don't know where I'm going.

I felt as if I had been abandoned on the edge of the world, and everywhere I went, there was an endless abyss.

At that time, I was really desperate!

However, that monster refused to let me go in that situation!

It came out of nowhere and swam close to me.

Think about it, just its size, just flick its tail and whip it away, it's like I'm not playing?!

And then......

I was indeed pumped away, flying with the turbulence, flying non-stop, flying upside down, rolling in the water......

Flying around, I don't know how long it took, when my brain was completely left behind.

If I hadn't eaten or drunk any water yesterday, I'm afraid I would have vomited a long time ago! ”

Speaking of which, the middle-aged man finally ended his chattering tirade.

cleared his dry throat and looked up at Meng Lei, his eyes flashing with a strange light.

Then he suddenly asked a strange question.

"Little Brother Meng, do you believe in light?!"

"I ......"

Meng Lei was speechless, he really didn't know what to say.

At this moment, he was completely stunned by Huo Ye's gushing autobiography.

He didn't expect this man to be able to say that!

In particular, the eloquence is very good.

Not only did he summarize the complete process of what happened, but also made a detailed summary.

Even his feelings at the time, as well as the psychological changes, were clearly expressed.

It really made Meng Lei feel what happened to him at that time.

It can also be seen from this that this guy is indeed not lying.

After all, Meng Lei had experienced the kraken's screaming sound firsthand.

That kind of weird feeling, people who have not experienced it firsthand, can never make such an intuitive description.

Even, Huo Ye's impact at that time was obviously more serious than Meng Lei's, and even the real hallucinations appeared!

If it weren't for the decompression system to send an alarm, I'm afraid he would have been cold!

Through this description, Meng Lei's nervous nerves slowly relaxed.

However, in the face of Huo Ye's jumping question.

Meng Lei really didn't know how to answer.

But Huo Ye obviously didn't care, and continued to take care of himself:

"Little Brother Meng, whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway!

I didn't believe it before, but just now, I did!

I really believe it!

When I woke up from my trance and opened my eyes, I really saw the light!

In this pitch black deep ocean, I actually saw the light!

The feeling is indescribable, it's like seeing heaven in the deepest part of hell!

Then I swam desperately, desperately swimming.

Until the light grew brighter and closer to me.

Until, I saw this submarine!

Then, I will see you, little brother! ”

Speaking of this, Huo Ye couldn't help but stand up and walked in front of Meng Lei.

Standing on the edge of the muzzle of the shotgun, he was extremely excited to shake hands with Meng Lei and express his gratitude.

But after much hesitation, he finally got under control.

Standing in place with a sincere face, he kept rubbing his hands, and said to Meng Lei over and over again:

"Really, little brother Meng!

If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my oxygen tank would have run out of energy, and I would have sunk into the sea to feed the fish!

You're my savior!

Thank you! Thank you! ”

Huo Ye couldn't stop thanking him and bowed again and again.

It can be seen that his emotions at the moment are indeed true feelings.

In fact, at least at this moment, Huo Ye really couldn't have any other thoughts about Meng Lei no matter what.

At this time, Meng Lei was like a savior in his heart.

Whoever is dragged out of the abyss in that desperate situation and regained his life.

It's too late to be grateful to Dade, how can you think crookedly about your life-saving benefactor?

At this time, after understanding the cause and effect.

Meng Lei also slowly lowered his guard and slowly put away the shotgun.

But he didn't let his guard down completely.

The fingers hanging low to the side, still leaning on the trigger.

Moreover, until he thoroughly understood Huo Ye's character, it was impossible for Meng Lei to let the gun out of his hand.

It's not that he's suspicious by nature.

But he knows very well that in this cruel living environment, no one can easily believe it.

Even the most loyal and honest person will be affected by the environment.

When people are hungry, they can do anything.

Are there still few examples of cannibalism in ancient times?

Besides, now that there is no legal and moral constraint, even the best friend may stab you in the back.

How much more a stranger.

What's more, Meng Lei's submarine still has enough equipment and resources to make anyone blush.

"Since your submarine is gone, I can't help it."

"Then for the time being, I'll give you a ride first."

After a little hesitation, Meng Lei opened his mouth and said to Huo Ye.

At this point, everyone was on the boat, and Meng Lei really couldn't drive him down anymore.

Although Meng Lei is not a virgin, he is also not cold-blooded.

If he really wanted to force Huo Ye away with a gun against his head, and watched him die in the sea, Meng Lei really couldn't give up his heart.

Besides, Meng Lei doesn't lack a mouth to eat.

Perhaps, if the development is good, Huo Ye can be incorporated and become his future crew.

The fleet needs to develop, and Meng Lei needs helpers.

Keeping a high level of vigilance and keeping everyone out, then he is destined to take the lone wolf route.

Therefore, in the matter of Huo Ye, it is just necessary to be careful in the early stage.

Through a period of contact, I learned about this person's character.

How to decide when the time comes, then we will talk about it then.

After hearing Meng Lei's words, Huo Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, he took a deep breath, and said very solemnly:

"Little Brother Meng, don't thank you, you saved my life, as long as you have a place to find my Huo Ye in the future, you can just open your mouth!"

After a pause, without waiting for Meng Lei to answer, Huo Ye said again:

"In addition, don't worry, I won't eat and drink in vain on the boat, I will take care of the salvage work in the future, you just rest on the boat!"

The sentence that Huo Ye added later was something that Meng Lei didn't expect.

Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, with this sentence here, Meng Lei feels that this person should be not bad, at least not in vain.

"Well, that's another story." Meng Lei nodded, and said: "In the future, you can just stay in the cockpit, and don't come to the living cabin without my permission." ”

"Okay! Whatever you say is what you say, listen to you! ”

Huo Ye agreed very happily.

Then, without saying a word, he walked to the cockpit with his head down.

The reason why Meng Lei made this request was actually after some careful consideration.

The simplest reason is that the manufacturing table is located on the side of the living cabin and is directly connected to the warehouse.

If you want to build something, you don't need any instructions to unlock it, and you don't need to apply for supplies.

In case Huo Ye, a middle-aged man, had a backbone, he would casually get a weapon out when Meng Lei was not paying attention.

Maybe at some moment, Meng Lei's life will be explained.

Therefore, it is necessary to have control of the manufacturing table in your hands.

As for the equipment of the cockpit, it doesn't matter.

Even if Huo Ye played the center console badly, it would not have any impact on Meng Lei.

As long as the opponent still wants to live, it is impossible to do anything in terms of control.

Functions such as communication channels and trading platforms are not necessary to worry about.

Therefore, as long as Huo Ye is firmly controlled in the cockpit.

In the short term, it will not pose any threat to Meng Lei.

At this time, Huo Ye obeyed Meng Lei's instructions and had already come to the cockpit door, and was about to press the open button.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember something.

Turning around, he scratched his head, looked at Meng Lei with some confusion, and asked:

"By the way, little brother Meng, just now you were in the cockpit, gesturing at me, what do you mean?

I see you chopping and crackling, thief selling hard!

Is it something I've got on me?! ”

“…………”

The corners of Meng Lei's mouth twitched, it was really a pot that he didn't open and mention.

How does this damn let him answer?!
