The sea surface began to vibrate, as if a pot was boiling. The underwater waterfall began to collapse, and a large number of bubbles rushed to the sea surface. The temperature of the sea water was also rising. After a while, it was like a hot spring, with steam rising, obviously. Magma has emerged from the ocean floor. Ling Hao and others got into the "Stone Crab" like their butts were on fire. The moment they saw them, Annie and Shi Si both collapsed. One by one, they threw themselves into Ling Hao's arms, wiping their noses and tears wildly. Xin's eyelids twitched, and he smiled helplessly and shook his head. After walking between life and death, who doesn't have some suppressed emotions that need to be released?
"Have you contacted the Marianne? The underwater waterfall has collapsed, and there is such a large space below. I'm afraid a huge whirlpool will be created, which will suck us down." Ling Hao rubbed Shi Si's head. asked.
"We have contacted them. They are already heading here. They will pick up the two snipers from Barron Island on the way. Their situation is not optimistic. The volcano on the island has begun to emit thick smoke. It may happen at any time. Eruption." Shi Si then realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly left Ling Hao's arms. He shrugged and stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm telling you something, don't be angry. I just rushed back to the sea at the risk of my life, and Liutai sprayed water. All the engines were burned out by me, and the repair value is probably not very high. Replacing it with a new one will cost at least 3 million."
Ling Hao scratched her nose lovingly and said, "Escape, there's nothing you can do about it, it's only 3 million, it's trivial."
"I'm talking about U.S. dollars." Shi Si said timidly, his voice sounding like a mosquito.
"..." Ling Hao's face twitched fiercely. If he hadn't walked away with a bag of diamonds from "Chicken Cone Snails" before, he might have really lost everything this time.
"Pfft", someone finally couldn't help but laugh. Ling Hao looked at Annie in his arms, with tears still on her face. She burst into tears and smiled. She pushed her head into Ling Hao's arms and said, "I can't help but laugh." I heard your heart break. I didn’t expect that a lonely hero like you would be so down-to-earth. It’s just a little money. Have you forgotten how rich you are?”
Ling Hao was a little embarrassed, and glanced secretly at Zhu Xin, then grabbed Annie's shoulders with both hands, and gently pushed her away from his chest. In order to avoid the other party's embarrassment, he deliberately made a fuss in a serious manner: "I'm not What kind of lone hero is that? I’m just an ordinary person. Every time I go on a mission, without everyone’s cooperation, I’m afraid I won’t be able to accomplish anything. And me, the money I make is basically divided equally among my brothers. 3 million US dollars is worth it to me. It’s still a big number. Even if you are really a great hero, you still have to eat and drink, right? Who can live only by feelings? "
Annie wiped her cat face, rolled her eyes at Ling Hao and said, "You are so thorough as a hands-off shopkeeper. You didn't even know that your company was listed, and you never asked, 'Dinaste Jewelry Group' After the listing, the stock has doubled several times. Now the market value of the entire company has reached 27.5 billion U.S. dollars, of which the six people in your team hold 20% of the shares and you hold 20% of the shares. You are now a billionaire with a net worth of 5.5 billion U.S. dollars. This year You can get at least over 30 million US dollars in dividends at the end of the year, are you still a moneyless person?"
Everyone was shocked. Tian Yong and Yuan Bing were counting their own shares and dividends on their fingers. It seemed that they were too nervous. After counting for a long time, no one could match them. In the end, Shi Si looked disdainful. Immediately stopped their embarrassing behavior: "Each person's shares account for 3.33% in an infinite cycle. If my brother's dividend is 30 million, each of us will get one-sixth, 5 million US dollars. Don't forget it, it's useless. Son’s.”
This was Chi Guoguo's money offensive. Zhu Xin curled her lips in disdain. In her opinion, people like Anne who were accustomed to using money to measure everything and solve everything were nothing to worry about.
"Brother, a whirlpool has begun to form on the sea. It is very close to us. The Marianne has also arrived. We have to seize the time to hoist the Stone Crab onto the ship before the whirlpool controls us." Everyone seemed to It was too early to relax. Shi Si's words immediately brought everyone back to reality.
Ling Hao slapped his forehead and said, "Now is not the time to relax. I'm afraid it's too late to hoist it onto the ship. Just use the steel cable to tow it away. Let's get out of here quickly."
Within a few minutes, two thick steel cables were connected between the "Stone Crab" and the "Marian". At this moment, a vortex with a diameter of more than ten meters had been formed on the sea surface, and it was still expanding. Because the Stone Crab is a deep submersible, you can imagine how thick the steel plate of the pressure-resistant shell is, and the weight is certainly not light. The "Marian" turned on its full power and dragged it slowly away from the whirlpool area. The vortex at sea is worthy of being called a "death trap". Although this vortex is not large, its suction force is actually dragging the stern of the "Marian" a little off course. You must know that this is a ship with a displacement of more than 3,000 tons. The size of the diving operation ship is already equivalent to that of a frigate.
Ling Hao stood in front of the porthole of the "Stone Crab" and looked out at the sea water while talking to the captain of the "Marian" on the intercom, instructing the other party on how to sail out of the whirlpool with as little effort as possible while towing the "Stone Crab" . Suddenly, he frowned and was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Captain, I saw a helicopter's tail standing on the sea not far from the two o'clock direction on the right, and the tail rotor was still turning slowly. This is Where's the helicopter? Did anything happen on the surface while we were underwater?"
"Oh, that helicopter was shot down by the sniper team on Barron Island. They had just returned to the ship and were having dinner in the cabin next door." The captain explained.
Ling Hao immediately realized something, and immediately asked the captain to call the two special police officers over for questioning. As expected, the "chicken cone snail" had really escaped from the underwater base. Unexpectedly, it was reserved on the island. The sniper was shot down. It can be said that the sky net is full of details. So, could the priceless "Mermaid Tears" be on her body?
Seeing that the whirlpool was about to reach the helicopter, how could Ling Hao remain calm? He turned around and ran towards the hatch.
"Hey, why are you going? Didn't you see the huge whirlpool outside?" Seeing Ling Hao trying to run outside like his butt was on fire, Zhu Xin immediately stopped him.
"I saw the 'Chicken Cone Snail'. I'm going to find the 'Mermaid Tears', otherwise your dad will have to pay for it. It's a priceless treasure!" Ling Hao said as he opened the hatch cover and turned his head. He got out without looking back.
Zhu Xin was so angry that she jumped up and down: "You want money rather than your life?!"
Tian Yong advised from the side: "Don't you know him yet? 'Zhenhai Longhu', he is the god of the sea. How can a whirlpool trap him?"
The vortex has now reached a diameter of more than 40 meters. The water flow in the vortex is extremely fast and the water pressure is much higher than elsewhere. As soon as Ling Hao jumped into the water, he was caught in the current and spun involuntarily.
"You're still excited, aren't you?!" Ling Hao was a little angry. "Be a person who hovers between cow A and cow C!" A circle of red light suddenly appeared on his body, and he was like a sea-fixing needle that forcefully froze him in the rapid current. Countless seawater wrapped around the sea sand and debris Rocks and sea animals passed him by.
Ling Hao stretched his neck and looked around. Unexpectedly, he had been swept to the opposite side of the helicopter by the whirlpool, with the entire whirlpool in between. It was impossible to pass through the center of the whirlpool, so one had to swim along the current to the other side. His muscles all over his body were tense to control his speed, because he was swimming along the whirlpool of water. If someone was accidentally swept past his position by the current, he would have to do another lap. Moreover, Ling Hao had no chance to come around again. The wreckage of the helicopter was already very close to the whirlpool. A moment later at night, the small helicopter would be like a tissue thrown into the toilet. It would be torn apart and swallowed by the whirlpool in an instant, and everything would be destroyed. There won't be anything left.
"Fight!" Under the emergency situation, Ling Hao wished that his body could be used better. He could use whatever power he wanted. Of course, this was impossible for anyone. However, Ling Hao broke through the limits of his body in this anxiety. For a moment, he felt that some kind of boundary between his will and his body was broken, as if something broke free from the shackles and was released. The breath of Zhenhai Longhu in the body, the energy of the Yin-Yang Dragon Ball, and even the endless power of the "Source of Wood" seem to be gradually merging together. The red light that originally emitted from the whole body was smudged by a piece of golden light, and gradually turned into a dark golden light flashing with dots of starlight. Although it was not as ferocious as before, it had an added sense of nobility and sanctity. It was like a breakthrough after reaching the physical limit during long-distance running. Not only did I feel that my strength was quickly returning, but it was even more powerful than before.
Ling Hao was like a fish swimming upstream in the rapids, struggling out of the increasingly violent whirlpool and rushing to the side of the helicopter.
At this moment, the helicopter has been dragged by the water flow and is moving slowly. You can see that it is lying head down on the seabed. There is a bullet hole as big as the mouth of a wine bottle in the engine position. The cockpit is not damaged much, but Since it is not absolutely sealed, it has been filled with sea water. "Cone cone" was still in the driver's seat, keeping her hand pushing the cabin door. Due to the water pressure and excessive tension, she was unable to open the cabin door and drowned inside.
Ling Hao pulled down the entire cockpit door of the helicopter, tore off the seat belt, and pulled out the body of "Chicken Cone Snail". There was a large backpack behind her, which must have carried some very important things. Ling Hao wanted to know the whereabouts of "Mermaid Tears" and couldn't wait to open his backpack and rummage through it. There are several sets of fake documents and passports for running away, a few personal clothes, cosmetics and a satellite phone. A few stacks of cash and a few gold bars are essential. Other than that, there is only a jewelry box the size of a fist. .
"That's it." Ling Hao showed a smile and gently opened the box. In an instant, it seemed that the sea water became bluer and cooler, and an inexplicable precious light appeared more mysterious and beautiful against the light of the sea water. Inside the box is a drop-shaped blue gem the size of a Go piece. This gem is obviously different from the common sapphire. Intuitively, it is not the pure blue color of sapphire, but a slightly greenish color in the blue. , there is an abyss-like darkness hidden among the blue-green, making the whole gem look like it came from a dark lake in the underworld. There is a hint of coldness and mystery in its beauty, especially the light it emits, which is a It has no temperature, and can feel the coldness that can freeze the soul. Even an ordinary person, no matter how ignorant he is, can feel that it is definitely not a mortal thing. This is just the appearance and feeling. In essence, the blunt scientific name of boronite cannot make people associate it with gemstones. But as the vice president of a jewelry company, Ling Hao naturally knows these five things. This word represents the second most expensive gemstone in the world, and its value cannot be compared with even the "King of Jewelry" diamond.
"Perfect, is this the 'Mermaid Tears'? Coincidentally, the drop-shaped black pearl I got in the Blue Cave also has this name. I don't know which of the two 'Mermaid Tears' is More expensive." A smile appeared on Ling Hao's face. He held the body of "Chicken Cone Snail" and her backpack in one hand, and held the box containing gems in the other hand, preparing to return to the "Stone Crab". The underground space has an end after all, and it is basically full at this moment. The vortex begins to shrink, much faster than when it expanded.
Just when Ling Hao was relaxing, a black shadow swam behind him like a ghost, as fast as a swift in the sky. By the time Ling Hao reacted, the box containing the gem in his hand had disappeared.
"What the hell?!" Ling Hao was shocked. After all, he was the "Longhu of Zhenhai". Isn't it a joke that he was robbed in the sea? In anger, he pulled out the "Dragon Arc" sword, and slashed out with a red light. The black shadow that was retreating felt the fatal threat behind him, and his body suddenly twisted, barely able to avoid the sword light. Only a small piece of fin was cut off.
This time Ling Hao saw it clearly. He and Shui Lingxing shouted at the same time: "Wait a minute, I have something to say!" It turned out that it was a mermaid, a strong "male" mermaid.
