Shi Si's eyes were red, and she was gnashing her teeth, making her delicate and pretty face look a little ferocious. Sound waves propagated faster in the water than in the air, and she had already heard the deafening explosion of the torpedo.
At this moment, the power of all the motors of the "Stone Crab" has been turned to the maximum, and it is floating crazily in the blue hole. The huge internal and external pressure difference generated in a short period of time makes the hull of the boat make a "squeaking" sound, and some relatively weak places have already It bulged outwards, as if it was about to explode at any moment.
But she has no intention of stopping, because the probability of the Blue Hole collapsing is greater than the probability of the "Stone Crab" exploding. Whether she can survive depends on how strong her will to survive in death is.
350 meters, 320 meters, the "Stone Crab" tried its best to float. However, it is a huge and heavy "living cabin" after all. No matter how hard it is, how fast can it be?
Suddenly, a huge stream of water surged up from below. This was the shock current generated by the torpedo explosion. It swept everything wherever it went like a tsunami. The surrounding stone walls began to crack and rocks rolled down. The "Stone Crab" was like a can attached to a firecracker, and was instantly lifted up by the current.
For a moment, everyone felt like they were on a high-speed roller coaster. The rapid upward gravity pushed everyone to the ground. The entire "Stone Crab" shook violently, the lights in the cabin flickered on and off, and the circuits exploded in series. There were sparks, and the sound of metal deformation from the hull became louder, as if it was about to disintegrate in the next moment.
"Ah...!" A low roar came from Shi Si's throat. His hands were still holding the joystick tightly, but his eyes were staring at the skylight at the top.
Zuo Pengfei climbed up to Shi Si's driving chair, grabbed her arm and said: "Now the hull of the 'Stone Crab' is flat, like a manhole cover, all the pressure is acting on us, so the hull The intensity is unbearable, can't you just 'float sideways'?"
Shi Si glanced at him sideways and said: "I maintained this posture on purpose. Only by using the impact of the torpedo explosion can we float up fast enough. Otherwise, we are likely to be buried alive here. Instead of doing this, we will It's better to bet your last hope on the Stone Crab, I have confidence in it."
Zuo Pengfei was at a loss for words. This girl was more decisive than a man when she started to act fiercely. He also looked at the vague bit of skylight on the skylight, which was the direction in which they escaped.
Suddenly, Zuo Pengfei's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in a trembling voice: "Up above! The 'I-style' submarine has fallen!"
You can see in the skylight that rubble falls from above, and a huge black shadow pokes down like a sea-fixing needle. The huge weight causes it to fall extremely fast. If it is hit by it, let alone the "Stone Crab" "No matter what it is, it will be smashed to pieces.
"Life or death, wealth and wealth are in the sky, fight!" Shi Si screamed, and the joystick suddenly pulled down. The entire "Stone Crab" slowly stood up, and the huge porthole of the cockpit crashed down on the head. In the submarine, everyone in the cabin was rolling and crawling. As soon as they stabilized their bodies, the scene in front of them was so frightening that they were scared to death. What's more, they lost control of their sphincter and were about to become incontinent.
Soon after, the huge bow of the "I-style" submarine came to the front like a huge black hole. Shi Si shouted: "Come on, I will fight with you!" The joystick quickly moved to the left. After a few moments, the "Stone Crab" continued to float while turning diagonally for a small half circle, just enough to make way for it to pass by the "I-style" submarine. The water flow caused by it caused the "Stone Crab" to tremble violently, and the gravel hit the reinforced resin portholes, making a series of "bang bang" muffled sounds.
Shi Si still maintained this floating position and floated at full speed. There was no trace of the joy or relaxation he felt after having just faced death. The rocks falling off the rock wall were getting bigger and bigger. God knows when it would completely collapse. Death would The haze has not been dispelled, and now they are still 185 meters away from escaping.
The "Pippi Shrimp" has now become a veritable demolition machine. Each stalagmite and stalactite was broken off by the mechanical arm, leaving a mess behind. But Ling Hao's brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "We can't go on like this. In such a long time, we have only advanced less than 500 meters, and there is no sign of the terrain opening up in front of us. I see the thorns on the robotic arm. The ball and steel spurs have almost been broken off, and I'm afraid the robotic arm will have to be scrapped before a path can be dismantled."
"Yeah, why do I think this road is a dead end?" Yang Xueting also frowned.
At this moment, the entire cave trembled, and sharp stalactites broke and fell in the vibration, like spears piercing the bottom of the cave. I saw a nearly 4-meter "Spiny Shell Shark" being killed by a spear. The stalactite was pierced through and nailed to the ground, still struggling and twisting.
"Reverse!" Ling Hao put the reverse gear on, and Yang Xueting pulled the joystick, increasing the horsepower to the maximum. The "Pippi Shrimp" suddenly stopped suddenly, and then quickly retreated, with a stalactite almost touching it. The bow of the boat fell, and Ling Hao and the others were almost pinned to the ground like the spiny armored shark.
The 500-meter "extreme reversing" was like a performance of "life and death speed". I can't remember how many times the Lord of Hell waved and smiled at them. God knows whether it was God who was taking care of them, or who had the halo of the protagonist. , "Pipi Shrimp" miraculously returned to the entrance of the cave in one piece, with all its beards and tail.
The collapse inside the cave became more serious, and the rumblings became louder and louder. Ling Hao looked at everyone and said, "The cave is about to collapse. I'm afraid the entire underwater cave will collapse. Since drilling into the cave is a dead end, I have no choice but to cross this wall of fire. Whether you live or die depends on God's will." ." He glanced at the professor and Adeline who were huddled together in fear, and immediately gave up the idea of asking for their opinions.
Yang Xueting was also unambiguous. She rushed out of the cave with a push of the joystick. Fortunately, the wall of fire had been burning for a long time and was no longer as fierce as it was at the beginning. Even so, many of the external devices of the "Pippi Shrimp", such as External cameras, communication antennas, etc. were immediately declared scrapped.
Although it has been a while since the top of the Cretaceous Underground Sea collapsed, the sediment content in the water is still very high, and the visibility is very low. But they don't care about this now. They only have one thought in their minds, that is, to leave here and return. to the sea.
"The Stone Crab is calling the Pipi Shrimp...Brother, can you hear me?" Shi Si drove the Stone Crab while trying to contact Ling Hao, but there was no response. This time she tried again Unable to hold back, tears fell like broken beads.
On the other side, Ling Hao was also calling Shi Si loudly with a communicator, but there was no response. His face darkened, and his teeth gritted loudly.
Tian Yong comforted him: "Don't worry, they must have evacuated from the blue hole next door. There are so many obstacles between us, so the signal may not be able to pass through. Even if it can pass through, I guess our external communication antenna is also there." It was burned when we got through the wall of fire just now."
The entire underwater cave world is probably going to be completely destroyed. The sound of cracks and rocks squeezing and breaking has never stopped, and it is getting more and more violent. Ling Hao and the others are still more than 250 meters away from the sea. To compete with death.
In comparison, Shi Si and the others are already less than 100 meters away from the sea. However, in comparison, the speed of the "Stone Crab" cannot be compared with that of the "Pippi Shrimp". Many people are pious in their hearts. They prayed, hoping that their gods would allow them to see the blue sky again and breathe fresh air.
A rumbling sound seemed to come from the ground, like thunder rolling, and like thousands of horses galloping. This limestone seabed, which has been riddled with holes by groundwater and seawater for hundreds of millions of years, has endured numerous geological changes and even the ravages of war. However, today’s scientific expedition team’s visit and subsequent triggers All the things that happened became the straw that broke the camel's back.
The seabed within a radius of 1 kilometer suddenly collapsed. Fortunately, there was not much air in the underwater caves, so apart from the emergence of a large number of bubbles, there was no vortex formed on the sea surface, threatening the safety of the diving vessel.
With a "crash", the Stone Crab, which was full of scars and bulges, floated to the surface. A burst of cheers immediately erupted from the diving operation boat. Shi Si got in touch with the operation boat. His first sentence was to ask about the name of the "Pippi Shrimp" When he learned that the latter had not emerged from the water and had completely lost contact with him, Shi Si fell silent. After repeated calls from the diving vessel, she said feebly: "The people inside the 'Stone Crab' need a month to decompress, so let's hoist it on board."
Jiang Mingyu handed a pack of tissues to Shi Si, whose face was already full of tears and said: "Don't give up hope. I don't know about others, but those three people, even if they fall into the abyss, they have the ability to climb up again. You have to Believe them, even a big guy like the Stone Crab can escape. They were originally on top of us, but are they unable to get up?"
Shi Si nodded indifferently and took the tissue from Jiang Mingyu. She was confused if she cared.
Shi Si's childhood was not happy. When she was 5 years old, her parents died in a car accident. She grew up with her grandmother. Although her grandmother's family had good financial conditions, they had relatively strict rules. After losing her parents suddenly, she began to become autistic and would become autistic. I was completely closed in my own world, reading books and studying computers and the Internet desperately.
After all, grandma is an elderly person and has a family business to take care of. Shi Si has achieved excellent results since he was a child. Naturally, in the eyes of grandma, there is nothing to worry about. But she didn't know that Shi Si rarely communicated with people. She trusted computers more than people. Since junior high school, she had a very high reputation in the circle of computer experts. By high school At that time, he became a top hacker with the nickname "Nine-tailed Fox". In the year she was admitted to MIT, she not only became the pride of her grandmother, but also became a legend in the hacker circle.
In life, although she has excellent grades, she is the atmosphere in the school social circle and a weirdo in the eyes of her classmates. However, on the Internet, she is a god worshiped by many people. The strong contrast between reality and the virtual world made Shi Si either completely unclear about the explicit or implicit rules in real society, or even if he knew them, he would scorn them.
In her sophomore year, she made a decision that affected her life. That year, her grandmother passed away due to a heart attack. Her uncles and aunts inherited the inheritance and kicked her out. Although she had no financial source, she still had a scholarship to protect her. She finished her studies, but she resolutely chose to drop out and start making money on the Internet as a top hacker.
Shi Si is a master among masters. If she only makes money, no one can catch her. But after all, she is still a young person who will do some vanity but no practical significance. She invaded the FBI headquarters server with sparks and lightning, "wandering around" and "taking photos" like a tourist, and then left. A group of FBI network security experts even noticed her "taillight" did not see.
The "Nine-tailed Fox" became a god in one battle, and she was a god among gods, but she could no longer stay in this country, and running away was her only choice. She is a mixed-race child, and her father is Chinese. Shi Si has longed to visit her father's hometown since she was a child, so she left the United States through a smuggler and went to Luzon through Mexico. Then she used a smuggler's boat to secretly enter Hong Kong Island. But something happened this time. The smuggler this time was not a good thing. Seeing that Shi Si was alone, he wanted to sell her directly to the human traffickers in the island country. Shi Si had a strong temper and refused to obey, so he jumped into the sea and planned to commit suicide. . It happened that Ling Hao and the others met her on a mission, so they rescued her, and then she became Ling Hao's little follower, but since then she also suffered from the sequelae of being "afraid of water".
For Shi Si, Ling Hao is the only person she can trust, a person who not only saved her life, but also protected her like a big brother. No one had ever treated her like this. Shi Si's closed heart finally opened a gap, and the sun shone into her heart, dispelling all the darkness and haze. She finally slowly became like a normal little girl. It can be said that Ling Hao changed Shi Si, and he was the god in Shi Si's heart.
Suddenly, there was a "crash" sound, and the "Pipi Shrimp" jumped out of the sea like a dolphin, and then landed heavily on the sea. Everyone in the "Stone Crab" looked out the portholes, but Shi Si was already crying.
