"Honorable Li Liang, wake up."
Liya gently shook Li Liang's shoulders with a soft voice.
"Well..." Li Liang woke up in a daze, "What time is it?"
"Five-thirty."
Li Liang shook his head, took a sip of cool coffee, and casually checked the locations of the members of the "Deep Sea Gate Tour Group".
Everyone has gathered in the No. 3 warehouse to retrieve the images. The No. 3 warehouse is still overcrowded. Submarines are constantly surfacing at the piers. At a glance, the vertical bridge looks like a rusty steel jungle.
"Okay, let's go," Li Liang stood up, stretched his muscles, and said to Leah, "From now on, you must follow me closely, especially when we arrive at the Deep Sea Fortress, you must maintain fighting status at all times."
"Received, distinguished Li Liang."
Twenty minutes later.
Li Liang and Liya walked out of the sliding door in the corner of warehouse three.
Key areas of the Defiant have been closed for many years, and such passages are often blocked. The same is true for the door of No. 3 compartment. It took a lot of effort for them to squeeze out from the piles of used submarine parts.
Checking the bracelet just now shows that my friends have boarded the ship at Pier 34.
Li Liang led Liya through the crowds of people, stopping from time to time to wait for the anti-gravity trucks carrying goods to pass by.
After years of development, the Defender is like a city controlled by gangs and follows a complete set of rules, so the dock is busy but not chaotic.
Having just passed Pier 8, which was still far away, Li Liang thought about the whole thing again.
Another world in the gate of the deep sea, aliens, spirits, these things sounded full of mystery. He was as curious as Cain, and even subconsciously had a desire to explore, but his reason told him that Xian sealed the deep sea There must be a reason for this. It must not be a sunny resort.
The six-pointed star-like undersea fortress must not be defending against enemies on earth, but preventing the things inside from coming out.
Yuan Zhen, Wang Chao, and the idiots from the MOMO gang want to get rich and rich in danger, but he has no interest.
Isn’t it good to be alive?
He has already died once, and next time he must die safely on his bed at home. It is best if there is an old woman who will accompany him throughout his life, holding his hand and watching him die.
Thinking of this, Cain's appearance inexplicably appeared in his mind, and he felt a chill instantly.
she? To her, anyone's life is just a matter of "life and death". She obviously has a steelyard in her heart, weighing everything in front of her at any time, with no lower limit and no moral integrity.
Before coming out of the general control hall, he had already prepared a back-up move. If things came to a critical juncture, this back-up move would be enough to impress the Lord of the Mayfly Brotherhood.
"here."
A shout interrupted Li Liang's thoughts. It turned out that during his thinking, he had already reached No. 34.
Wang Chao stood on the dock and waved to him.
Walking closer, Li Liang asked, "How's it going? Is it going well?"
"Well, the second lady has turned on Carlos's spy." Wang Chaobi looked much more relaxed in the southern death row. When he didn't have the intention to kill, he looked like a tired middle-aged truck driver. "The ship will leave immediately."
Li Liang nodded and followed Wang Chao to the submarine on the side: "Cain Xing Er? Who is her father?"
"Ask her yourself," Wang Chao held the open circular hatch and pointed down with his eyes.
Li Liang looked around at the hull of the boat that surfaced, feeling that it looked like a giant whale that had surfaced. Their submarine did not have a vertical bridge, and the hull was mottled and patched.
After looking around for a while, he climbed down the iron ladder of the hatch, and Leah jumped down immediately.
The dark and narrow sealed cabin was full of people.
Cain changed into a smart black jumpsuit, sat on the ground and played with a dagger. After seeing Li Liang, he put his right hand on his face and shook his four fingers with a smile.
"Mr. Li Liang," Yuan Zhen leaned against the boat and nodded in greeting.
In another corner, Someya's body was covered with bandages, and his right leg, knee and right hand were replaced with temporary mechanical parts. His face was expressionless at the moment.
Advisor Tata was still shrouded in a black cloak, sitting on the ground silently.
The rest were more than a dozen members of the MOMO gang, fully armed. Several of them had witnessed Li Liang and Cain's "adultery" in the afternoon, and were whispering to their unsuspecting companions.
Then, Li Liang saw another person.
"Lao Yang?"
"Hey, big brother?" Lao Yang's face was full of surprise, "I knew you were there. I guessed it when I saw Brother Jili Gulu. How about it, where will your science fiction circle go to this time?"
Li Liang was stunned for a moment, then turned to ask Cain: "What's going on with this guy?"
"Well," Cain said casually, trimming his nails with the tip of a dagger, "the patriarch said it would be best to bring a doctor. Here, the most famous doctor on the Defiant."
"I can prove it," Leah smiled. "When you were injured before, I consulted ten citizens in a friendly manner, and seven of them recommended Dr. Yang to me."
Seeing Leah, Lao Yang rolled his eyes and muttered: "It's this repeater again...it's so annoying to be friendly to your mother."
"..."
Li Liang stepped forward and patted Lao Yang on the shoulder, not knowing what to say.
"Hey, how about it, have I become a hardcore science fiction fan now?" Lao Yang said excitedly.
Li Liang pursed his lips: "It's very hard."
A head popped out of the control cabin, it was a curly white man: "Shall we go now?"
"GO!"
Cain raised his arms and shouted, looking as excited as if he was going on a self-driving trip. Lao Yang, who was infected by her, made an OK sign and shouted: "Oh, so bad."
The rest of the people were silent.
Damn, I still live happily as a fool.
Boom.
The submarine shook, revved its engine, slowly dived, lined up to enter the U-shaped "submarine elevator", and then sailed away from the Free Trade Defender.
Unlike all submarines, it heads deeper into the ocean.
The submarine accelerated. Through a pressure-resistant inner shell, water continued to enter the main ballast water tank. The cabin buzzed and was filled with the smell of diesel.
"Does this thing burn diesel?" Li Liang asked sitting in the corner.
"Well," Yuan Zhen's voice came from the other side, "Only such an old antique can avoid Xi'an's detection."
Cain kicked Lao Yang away, sat down next to Li Liang, and chuckled: "Xi'an's defense system believes that equipment below nuclear power is garbage and not a threat."
Li Liang didn't like being crowded together with other people, including pretty girls, but the cabin was really cramped and there was no place to hide.
He frowned and whispered: "Why on earth do you want to go to the Deep Sea Gate?"
"It's fun," Cain said in a relaxed tone as he leaned his head on Li Liang's shoulder and played with the dagger.
"Come on, Miss Second, it's not fun to die."
After a long silence, Cain whispered: "If the Gate to the Deep Sea is real, many things will change. Maybe the world has changed long ago, but we don't know."
"Maybe." Li Liang sighed, and then asked: "Are you the second in a family? Is your father the former lord?"
Cain glanced at him sideways and said lazily: "We're going a bit fast, aren't we starting to ask about my father-in-law?"
"roll."
