Among the six people who were overturned by the shock wave of the cloud bomb and fell into the sea, Zhong Yi was rescued by Bi Yan and Master Lu from a mysterious organization, and was temporarily safe; Bai Fei and Benita were immediately rescued. Found and brought back by helicopter. Therefore, the only ones who are still in crisis are Yun Ming, Jiang Yao and Pedro.
Yun Ming felt like he had been thrown into a working drum washing machine and experienced unspeakable earth-shaking. He could do nothing but curl up and close his eyes to fight against the intense dizziness. Yun Ming had no idea how many objects he had been hit by as he rolled all the way. It was usually a pain somewhere in his body, and before he had time to react, the rapids would take him somewhere else, and another part of his body would bear the pain.
When the sea gradually returned to calm, Yun Ming stopped this hellish encounter. His consciousness was not clear, but at least he did not pass out completely. This state of half-dream and half-awake lasted for a while before Yun Ming's brain woke up from the shutdown.
And his first thought after waking up was: "Okay, okay, I didn't vomit it out."
This is indeed Yun Ming's luck. The diving helmet and diving suit are sealed. It is impossible for Yun Ming to take off the helmet to clean it in the sea water. This means that once Yun Ming cannot hold back, his next actions will be unpredictable. The meeting unfolded in an environment that greatly affected morale; it could even be said that if Yun Ming vomited too much, he would be suffocated to death by his own vomit accumulated in the helmet.
"It's so dark...I can't see anything." Yun Ming raised an arm with difficulty and turned on the headlight switch on his helmet. A faint light lit up in the deep sea. This light source was as weak as a firefly on a summer night, but it brought great comfort to Yun Ming.
"Why are you so weak? Forget it, it's probably just broken." With the help of this better-than-nothing light, Yun Ming touched his body, and the limited medical knowledge in his mind told him good news: his organs were not damaged. Injury, no internal bleeding.
Of course, there must be more bad news: Yun Ming's arms were broken, and there were many contusions all over his body. His communicator completely failed and he could not contact anyone. The propeller on his diving suit was shattered in the impact, and he could not borrow any power from it. .
Yun Ming's heart became heavier the more he checked: "The loss is too great! The damage to the propeller is acceptable. After all, it acts as an exoskeleton for the legs and elbows, indirectly playing a protective role; don't worry about bruises, fractures are Big problem; the worst part is that I lost all contact with the outside world..."
Yun Ming soon realized the fact that in this situation where the heaven and the earth were not working, he could only actively save himself.
"Okay, I haven't considered this possibility before. If the revival organization is not a good person, it might have abandoned me, and I still have to rely on myself."
In the first step, Yun Ming planned to find out where he was before deciding which direction to swim in. Unexpectedly, he looked around and found a shadowy trapezoidal building not far away.
"Xumizuo? I was actually brought back here by the current." Reality did not allow Yun Ming to think too much. He immediately decided to change his plan temporarily and enter the Xumizuo nearby first. If you don’t come out, it’s too obvious now. You must find a place to replenish some food and water first.”
Yun Ming had both of these things, and they were stored in the space pocket on his diving suit. Yun Ming planned to find a room in the Xumizuo that was not flooded, and took off his helmet to eat and drink, otherwise he might not be able to sustain his physical strength for the rest of the journey.
Yun Ming's swimming style was quite strange. Because his arms were injured and he couldn't use any strength, he could only push forward with his two legs. After a lot of hard work, Yun Ming finally reached the bottom of the Sumeru Seat.
In Yun Ming's eyes, this is the bottom of the Xumizuo, but in fact, this should belong to the middle and lower part of the Xumizuo. Due to Kraken's attack, the real bottom of Sumeru, together with its thirteen fixed probes, were all turned into harmful garbage in the ocean.
It didn't take Yun Ming long to realize this, because he found that the "bottom" of the Xumizuo was as uneven as if it had been pitted by a dog, which was convenient for Yun Ming. He easily found a suitable opening and entered the interior of Xumizuo.
But then he backed out - it was a dead end. Yun Ming had to find another opening, but the way inward was blocked by various debris again. Finally, when Yun Ming's patience and physical strength were about to run out, he finally chose the right breach and entered the inner shell of the Xumizuo.
If the Xumizuo is compared to an apple, it is also divided into three layers from the outside to the inside, namely the peel, the pulp and the core. Yun Ming had finally broken through the peel and touched the flesh layer, still far away from the core. Assuming that the intrusion of seawater is a kind of rot that gradually invades the inside of the fruit, then only the core and the innermost pulp are uncontaminated. What Yun Ming needs to do now is to keep going deep into Xumizuo until he reaches a dry and refreshing area.
"What are these huge mechanical equipments? They look like production machine tools. How could something like that appear here?" With this question in mind, Yun Ming swam through the operation line responsible for the processing and purification of Shenwu.
Although the elevator door on this floor was open, Yun Ming would not be stupid enough to choose to go here. It would be fun if the car crashed down from above. Yun Ming found the fallen ceiling at the other end of the elevator entrance and successfully went up to the living area.
The living area was the same as the next floor, soaked in water like Atlantis. Yun Ming walked around and didn't even find anything valuable, so he continued walking up. Fortunately, the stairs between this floor and the previous floor were not damaged, which saved Yun Ming a lot of effort.
At this level, Yun Ming had reached the middle of the Sumeru Seat. This is an important operation room, an undoubted key point. Yun Ming concluded through comparison that this floor is fatter and may yield results: "This watertight door and the structure of this room can be seen at a glance as weapons are stored." Maybe there is a room with a drainage system here, and I wonder if Xumizuo has a backup power source..."
Yun Ming swam through a curved corridor, and there were warehouses with closed doors along the way. Yun Ming knew that the space behind these doors must not be close to the sea water, but he couldn't get in, and even if he went in, he might not be able to close the door, and the sea water would still pour in.
However, Yun Ming did not find nothing. At the end of this corridor, he discovered an abnormal hole in the watertight door.
"How could this door be destroyed? The opening is actually triangular." Yun Ming endured the pain and touched the edge of the hole with his hand: "And it is so smooth, as if it was split open with a cold weapon."
"The fact that this strange-shaped opening appears so deep inside the Sumeru constellation, and that there is only one of it, shows that it is definitely not the work of Kraken, but man-made."
"The key is...who caused this breach? Was it before or after the destruction of Xumizuo? Is that person still here?"
Several questions appeared in Yun Ming's mind, but he couldn't draw any conclusions based on the clues in front of him. He simply put the questions behind him and passed through the triangular gap.
"Huh? There is little water here." As soon as he passed through, Yun Ming made a gratifying discovery: the room behind the door only had about one meter of sea water, and Yun Ming's upper body could get out of the water with his feet on the ground.
As explained in the previous article, the Xumizuo after being attacked was hung on the edge of the sea cliff, with a certain inclination. There is another door in front of Yun Ming, which is tilted at an angle of about 30 degrees to the water surface. There is no trace of wetness on the door panel.
"This door..." Yun Ming turned the handle with anxiety: "The door lock is in good condition, it should be able to be opened directly."
Yun Ming breathed a sigh of relief. If the door couldn't be opened, he wouldn't be able to violently dismantle it. But even if the door couldn't block the way, Yun Ming would still need some effort to open it: his arms were broken and he couldn't open it. Shang Li, this door was as heavy as the treasury door. Yun Ming had to use his shoulders to push it open little by little.
The exhausting process is omitted by opening the door. In short, when Yun Ming climbed up to this dry space, he had no strength at all and could only lie on the ground and gasp.
Yun Ming panted for a while before he had enough energy to take off his helmet and take a deep breath of the air filled with the salty smell unique to the ocean. But before he could take a few more greedy puffs, a sharp sword was pressed against Yun Ming's throat.
