The mercury is in very bad condition. Tang Yi didn't know what they saw just now, whether it was really a replay of what happened in the past. The two tall stone monuments standing nearby were equally strange. In such a deep seabed, why are there so many secrets
I don't know what else is hidden in the deeper abyss
Tang Yi used the shooting function on the watch to quickly read a few characters on the stone tablet. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the headset, with some harsh noises, "Brother Tang! Where are you...where!"
Tang Yi responded immediately, "Can't you track the locator on us?"
Luo Wei's voice was intermittent and seemed to be disturbed by something, "Letter... Receive... Intermittent..."
Tang Yi frowned, it seemed that there was still signal interference in this trench. When he was sinking just now, for a moment, he really felt that he had passed through something, but he couldn't tell exactly what he had passed through. It's like falling from one side to the other.
"Where are you!" Tang Yi shouted loudly, repeating it several times, and Luo Wei seemed to know clearly, "I... flammable... Nearby."
Combustible ice veins... Tang Yi roared, "Wait for us for a while!" He knelt down and squeezed Mercury's shoulders lightly, "We have to go back."
Mercury raised her eyes, but her always clear eyes were now covered with a layer of confusion.
"Can't go..." Mercury's voice seemed to come from the bottom of his throat, with some hoarseness and uncertainty, "I always feel... something is calling..."
Tang Yi couldn't understand what Mercury was saying, "Call?"
"I need to go deeper..." Quicksilver blinked his eyes slowly, as if possessed by a demon, stood up and turned a fish tail to swim deeper into the south of the trench. Tang Yi hugged his body from behind, but Mercury didn't seem to feel it, and his eyes stared straight at the darkness in the abyss.
Tang Yi suddenly understood what Mercury said before: when you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares at you.
He seemed to really feel a troubling sight now, penetrating through the eternal darkness. He believed the crew's words, this trench would eat people.
"Mercury, listen to me. The water pressure here is too strong, even if your Kraken goes further down, it will be life-threatening!"
Mercury shook his head, "No... Then there is something..."
"Mercury!" Tang Yi shouted loudly, "Don't make trouble! We have to go back immediately!"
Mercury wanted to break free from Tang Yi's pull, "Can't you hear me? Someone is calling me... "
Tang Yi saw that there was no way to make Mercury awake, and in desperation, he slapped Mercury's face with a backhand, slapping the Kraken's head to the side, dizzy for a while, and his struggling movements stopped.
"Can you be normal! Do you want to be pressed into a pie by water pressure?!" Tang Yi yelled in exasperation.
Mercury slowly wiped the blood from the corners of his lips with the back of his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, his anger jumped in the ice blue, his long tail slowly stretched, his white hair surging and flying in invisible power, and the skin radiated with anger. The twilight is getting brighter and brighter, and it looks dangerous.
Tang Yi suddenly felt that the mercury in front of him was unfamiliar, like... being possessed.
"What are you, you dare to order me?" Mercury's voice was strong and strong, echoing throughout the valley. The floating jellyfish seemed to be greatly frightened and fled in a panic. However, the strange thing is that the light source has not disappeared. On the originally dark mountain wall, there were some faint luminous spots like night pearls, which spread out in an instant. The ground under his feet trembled at a low frequency, as if something was about to move.
Tang Yi was dumbfounded, what the heck is going on
The mercury in front of him was suspended in midair, his body taller than Tang Yi stretched out, his dorsal fins spread out like wings, and his sapphire-like eyes looked down at him. For a moment, Tang Yi felt that he was extremely vulnerable in the mercury, as if he would be swallowed by his anger at any time. Tang Yi couldn't help but took a half step back and called out uncertainly, "Mercury? It's me, Tang Yi."
Mercury raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile.
"I know who you are. It's a pity you don't know who you are." Mercury's eyes were suddenly cold, "Go away."
Tang Yi thought to himself: This is over, Mercury is crazy.
Mercury turned around and rushed into the depths of the abyss like a sharp sword. That indomitable energy was as if there were treasures in the abyss... Tang Yi was frightened by the sudden explosion of Mercury, but when he saw Mercury, he took a few deep breaths. Tsucai finally had the courage to turn on the thruster and chase in the direction of Mercury. The speed of the Kraken is extremely fast, and Tang Yi turned the power of the thruster to the maximum, feeling that the shell of the entire anti-compression suit was creaking and crumbling. If the anti-compression suit is broken at this time, he will be pressed into persimmons by water pressure within a second, and the visceral excrement will fly out.
That's a terrible way to die, second only to falling into a cesspool and drowning.
Tang Yi finally caught up with Mercury, aiming at the target and hugging Mercury's demon. The siren let out a long, angry howl, and the terrifying sound waves continuously reflected and echoed on the stone wall, causing a burst of pain in Tang Yi's head. He endured the pain and hugged Mercury, "Mercury! Be awake! You will die!"
The Kraken grabbed Tang Yi's wrist, easily pulled Tang Yi's hand away, and pulled the tiny human in front of him, eyes that became unfamiliar staring at Tang Yi, the distance between the two of them was so close , so close to being a little ambiguous.
"What does my life and death have to do with you?" With a bit of malicious questioning, it pierced Tang Yi's heart, "You poor bastard."
Tang Yi felt like he had been slapped hard on his face.
So much has happened, and the two have been through so much supporting each other. Especially after a night like that.
He actually called him a poor bastard
Tang Yi's heart tightened for a while, and anger rushed to his forehead. He slammed closer to Mercury's face, gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I have something to do with you! Just because I am your master now!"
"I don't have a master!!!"
"You have! Tang Ya is your master! Have you forgotten your favorite Tang Ya!" Tang Yi closed his eyes and roared, but there was a burst of bitterness in his throat, "You didn't mean to avenge him Don't you?! Don't you want to find out how he died?!"
As soon as these words came out, the Kraken, who was still running wild just now, suddenly became quiet. Tang Yi opened his eyes hesitantly and saw that the surface of the mercury was empty.
The anger that burned in his eyes just now was suddenly pulled away. At this moment, Mercury seemed to have suddenly lost his soul, and his expression seemed a little empty.
"Tang Ya..."
Tang Yi nodded with a wry smile, "Yes, Tang Ya."
The silver-white eyelashes blinked slowly, and his eyes gradually focused on Tang Yi's face. Tang Yi finally found a shadow of mercury.
Mercury stared at his face, reached out and gently touched Tang Yi's transparent helmet, as if touching his eyebrows.
"Tang Ya..."
Tang Yi pursed his lips, decided not to refute, just nodded, "Mercury, let's go back."
"go back?"
"Go up, go home."
"Go home..." Mercury chewed those two words and nodded.
Tang Yi was afraid that Mercury's spirit would be disturbed again, so he trapped the rope that had been kept between his belts for underwater climbing on Mercury's waist, and dragged him to swim to the top of the trench. Just when he felt that he had passed a certain plane again, he heard a strange voice in a trance.
Like a sigh.
Tang Yi's body trembled, and he looked up and down, left and right, and saw nothing unusual.
Tang Yi groped in the darkness, and probably swam to the northwest. Mercury's spirit gradually recovered, he suddenly swam in front of Tang Yi, used sound waves to detect the terrain, and quickly led Tang Yi to the direction of the previous mine. Communication with Luo Wei and others was restored, and Blue Whale took a total of three small submarines to rescue. Two hours later, they finally returned to the undersea base that had been initially constructed.
The No. 1 area of the subsea exploration base has been put into use, and most of the personnel on the Blue Whale have been transferred to a more comfortable base. Tan Mingyuan gave Tang Yi and Mercury a detailed physical examination. During this period, Tang Yi and Ashes mentioned the abnormality of mercury in the trench. Ashes looked a little dignified after hearing this.
"This is not the first time." Ash whispered.
Tang Yi snorted, "Does he often do this?"
"Not all the time, only on deep-sea missions, sometimes he gets out of control. He seems to have some kind of deep connection to the ocean. But after treatment, he has hardly had that situation again for nearly five years." Ash looked Seeing Tang Yi's worried eyes, he smiled gently and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, I will give him a mental examination."
Tang Yi smiled reluctantly, and the scene at that time reappeared in front of him.
For a moment, he felt that Mercury's powerful and terrifying posture didn't look like an ordinary Kraken, but rather...
like...
God
Tang Yi shook his head. How can there be such a strange feeling. Now that religion is dead, only the base is the only belief. What is the god, how does he know
A key researcher died, and the report was quickly sent back to the Energy Agency, along with samples of the combustible ice deposit and preliminary exploration reports. The news received two days later was that the mission continued. After all, the large-scale mineral deposits discovered this time were an extremely valuable resource. The headquarters has ordered more mining workers and experts to join the mission, and the Blue Whale was ordered to return, and return with another submarine to pick up more employees and mining equipment.
In this two-week period, the little hundred or so people left under the sea will be trapped in the base.
Fortunately, it is still a shallow sea, with sufficient underwater light sources, and magnificent creatures such as coral, sea anemones, seaweed and so on are all over the reefs of the coral island. Seabirds grazing the blue sky. In the quiet deep sea, you can occasionally hear the distant calls of whales or dolphins, rippling with the beams of light that leaked from the sea, like a song. In such a dreamy scene, it does not feel depressed and dull. If it is really uncomfortable, you can also go for a walk outside with diving equipment on the boat.
Tang Yi was still unhappy. He knew that he was really asking for trouble, that he had nothing to do with others, he was just a fragile ally.
But he couldn't help worrying about the mercury.
The Kraken has always been absent-minded recently, avoiding others far away, wandering aimlessly in the distant sea area, sometimes floating on the surface at night, looking at the starless and moonless sky alone.
Tang Yi sat in front of the transparent glass in the hall of the base, and looked at a few brightly colored swimming fish outside in the sea anemone bushes, and the old man sighed.
"Yo, hothead also has so many sentimental times?"
Tang Yi rolled his eyes lazily and turned his head slowly, "Who is your name hothead?"
Han Qi stroked the blue hair on his head, holding a rare cigar in his mouth, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window with a local tyrant temperament, watching with interest the silver figure lying in the seaweed in the distance, "I said, Could it be that you broke up with your siren?"
Tang Yi raised the corners of his mouth coldly, "Break up? Do you know that the Kraken can't break up with the person he's bound to?" He turned his eyes back to the window again, and said faintly, "Unless he dies."
"There is nothing absolute in this world." Han Qi shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "Since the neural structure of the brain is formed by hormone stimulation, there must be a way to change it back."
He does not mean that. Tang Yi's body trembled slightly.
"What did you say?"
Han Qi smiled narcissistically with a cigar in his mouth, "To be honest, there are a dozen Kraken corpses that have been dissected, and what fascinates me the most is their brains. One day, I will be able to develop a method to reverse the binding process. I'm not sure~ After all, I'm a genius second to none~"
Tang Yi rolled his eyes, he was bragging after a long time...
However, if he can really unbind... Does he have a chance...
He abruptly restrained himself.
He's a dignified human being, and he's not a siren, so why does he have to hang on a tree
"But don't worry, I won't use your Mercury as a guinea pig~ However, can you introduce everyone to know you? I heard that your Mercury has been mentally unstable recently? Making new friends is also good for your mental health~ "
"Don't even think about it." Tang Yi got a headache from this guy's quarrel, looked at the time and wanted to find an excuse to show off. But suddenly thought of something.
"Speaking of which, I have something I want to ask you." Tang Yi hesitated and asked, "You are a researcher and specialize in marine life. You should know a lot about sea monsters. Where is the place where the Red Death virus was dropped on the Siren's lair during the war?"
Han Qi smiled confidently, "I know~"
"where?"
"I won't tell you~"
"...You're itchy again, aren't you?"
"That's the confidential information in the sharp sword! I tell you it's very dangerous!"
"Your father is the second wise man, you are afraid of a ghost..."
"That's true." He spread his hands and raised his eyebrows, "But is it any good for me to tell you?"
Tang Yi took a deep breath and told himself to calm down. Can't compare with hooligans.
Who gave hooligans culture...
"I... How about introducing you to Peacock?" Tang Yi knew that Hetian would kill him by doing this, but... He didn't feel any guilt...
Han Qi clapped both hands, "Deal!" Then he leaned forward and waved at Tang Yi, motioning him to come closer.
"According to the records, the situation was actually a bit miserable at that time. First of all, the army of the sea monsters on the land was defeated one after another, and their leader was captured by humans. The remaining sea monsters in the sea, old and young, sick and disabled originally wanted to escape, but He was forced into a trench by the human army like a sheep. The red death potion was poured into the trench. No one knows whether all the sea monsters died. After all, no one wanted to go down... Anyway, there was no sea The demon came up."
When Tang Yi heard the last sentence "None of the Krakens came up", a cold current rushed through his body.
"Is the trench you're talking about the Mariana Trench?"
Han Qi's eyes widened in surprise, "How do you know?!"
