at the same time.
In the bridge, many people also saw this shocking scene. They raised their telescopes in unison, silently admiring the remnants of the previous era.
"It ran aground."
After a long time, the captain was the first to speak: "Judging from the direction of the undercurrent, the terrain below is very problematic. I am afraid it is an extremely rare deep sea shoal."
"Do you need the Sky Eye to continue approaching?"
"No need."
Ma Tian, the leader of the action team, shook his head and said, "To be on the safe side, I will lead the team this time."
"This is the closest we have been to our goal since we set sail. We must not fall short due to some negligence."
After the powerful speech was finished, the others couldn't help but nodded and expressed their agreement.
I have been wandering for half a month, but still haven't found anything. This is an invisible pressure for many people here.
In their respective fields, they hold high positions, but they still cannot escape the control of higher people, and their actions cannot escape the driving force of those people.
"Assemble the team."
"Prepare the assault craft!"
On the deck, Gao Yi grabbed a handful of mirage and shielded himself and Ah Shen. In this way, even with a monitoring system, the personnel on the bridge would not be able to discover their whereabouts, making it easier to carry out the next step.
"Those people will not miss this opportunity. They will definitely send people over to investigate. Later we will go to another place to go into the water and try not to go to the same place with them..."
There may be some important information on this, and Gao Yi is naturally unwilling to hand it over to others.
"Wait, Mr. Gao, I have a question."
Ah Shen suddenly raised his hand: "How should we get there?"
It roughly visually measured the distance between the two. Although the Sky Eye deliberately approached the sunken ship, this waterway was only a few kilometers long at least. They didn't have a boat, so could they swim across it?
"yes."
Gao Yi said matter-of-factly: "What else?"
"Don't you know how to swim?"
"It's enough that you know how to do it."
"ah?"
…
quarter past five.
When it was supposed to be dawn, this sea area was still shrouded in confused darkness, without any sunlight.
Buzzing…
On the outdoor deck, the sound of a crane was heard, launching assault boats into the water one after another.
For this investigation, the Sky Eye deployed a total of ten assault boats, each of which consisted of ten people in a team, forming a team of one hundred people, heading towards the wreckage of the ship in a mighty manner.
"This is Ma Tian, I'm heading towards the shipwreck."
"Everything is normal around now. It's over."
After the first report with the Sky Eye was completed, Ma Tian suddenly seemed to hear something and looked at the subordinates around him: "Did you hear the sound of water?"
"The sound of water?"
Several commissioners from the same team looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Did I hear wrongly?"
On the water surface not far away, a head suddenly popped up from below. He looked at the soul slowly descending above and made a gesture.
"It's okay, don't worry about me, just swim by yourself."
Gao Yi in the soul form said, reaching out and grabbing the fully transformed dorsal fin of Ah Shen. As soon as he finished speaking, the latter jumped out of the water like an arrow off the string, and its speed was not inferior to those of assault boats.
Looking at the Sky Eye that disappeared quickly behind him, Gao Yi couldn't help but sigh at this moment. Fortunately, he was a soul and had no resistance. If he had been in the flesh, he would have been thrown away.
After crossing the inky deep sea, the two quickly approached the water where the sunken ship was located. The color of the surrounding water began to change from dark to light, and finally only a few meters of depth remained. There were unknown algae floating in it, swaying with the current.
"This ship is really big."
Ah Shen slowed down and searched for a suitable landing point around the sunken ship.
On the dorsal fin, Gao Yi looked at this behemoth so close at hand and couldn't help but sigh: "If Hengyi Tianzonghui's research is correct, I can't imagine that thousands of years ago, humans actually had such a developed navigation industry! "
"But Mr. Gao, don't you find it strange?"
Ah Shen wondered: "Why are these wooden sailing ships soaked by seawater still so well preserved after a thousand years?"
Over the course of a thousand years, not to mention the wooden sailboat, even the steel behemoth may have collapsed under the sinking sand, but it still maintains the same appearance as when it first ran aground, as if it was still yesterday.
"This is the realm of occultism."
Gao Yi said: "Hengyi Tiandong Association believes that mysticism is actually science without an established system, and their purpose is to break through the superficial illusions in this world and return the essence to the truth. .”
During the time when he was recovering from his injuries, Gao Yi did not sit idle all day. On the contrary, in order to better understand the world, he also investigated several forces that he had heard about for a long time.
A big force, as long as it's not a street rat like Lost Paradise who either engages in terrorist attacks or is on the road to engage in terrorist attacks every day, it basically has its own signature.
With little effort, Gao Yi found the website of the Hengyi Tiandong Association in the lighthouse. Although in the eyes of most outsiders, it was just a story forum for entertainment after dinner.
"Mr. Gao, look above!"
After swimming for a long time, Ah Shen suddenly discovered something and screamed in surprise.
Gao Yi looked up and saw an irregular hole clearly visible above the hull of the ship, about ten meters above the water.
It looked like it was produced by the explosion of something, so that large burn marks could be seen on the edges.
Gao Yi frowned and said, "Is it caused by shelling?"
Ah Shen stopped paddling, raised his head and said, "So, the reason why it ran aground was not due to negligence, but because of some unavoidable factors?"
"This is not good news."
Gao Yi thought: "If a cannonball really hits here, who will turn the muzzle and finally aim at it?"
"Maybe it's an enemy..."
Ah Shen originally wanted to say "enemy", but then he thought about it again.
Who is the enemy?
Judging from the information gathered from many parties, the foggy sea filled with a strange atmosphere in front of us was probably the purpose of the Sun Fleet's final voyage a thousand years ago.
In such an environment, are the so-called enemies really still "enemies"?
"Could it be...that he is one of our own?!"
"Hope not."
After removing the [Ancient Omen], Gao Yi returned to his physical form.
Then, the familiar attire reappeared, an indigo jacket wrapped around the whole body, the lantern in his hand slowly awoke, and a sharp hunting knife hung on his waist. Behind him, with the sliding sound of zippers, two pairs of gas masks popped out.
When exploring unfamiliar environments, [Mountains Call] is the answer.
"Firing a friendly ship with which we get along day and night...just the reason behind this situation is enough for outsiders to puzzle over."
"There are either unprecedented benefits or unprecedented crises, so I don't want my future self to have to choose between the two... because it's too difficult to be a human being."
Gao Yi put on a pair of gas masks, and handed the other one to Ah Shen, saying in a low voice: "For safety's sake, let's take some professional measures. After all, it's been so long, we don't know what it's like inside." There’s no way to speculate.”
When it comes to the main plot, the plot is a bit hesitant and has dragged on for so long.
Thanks to friends of "Quantum Theory", "Qingman" and "Tianhe" for the reward.
