Tang Yu smiled and said, "Sorry, it's confidential, so I can't tell you the details. If you are interested in joining our 'Mercemen Association', I can tell you a little bit."
When Longdan heard this, he cursed in his heart, "You are trying to make fun of me. If you don't want to tell me, then don't arouse my curiosity."
At this time, there was a loud splashing sound at the dock. It turned out that the ship was going out to sea. Ah Kai stepped onto the deck in two or three steps and waved, "Let's go."
Longdan then returned to Akai's boat. After a while, the two ships left the dock and headed towards the vast ocean.
Tianyang stood on the deck and saw clearly that there were many ships sailing around. These ships were equipped with high-power lighting, and bright beams of light swept across the dark sea. Looking around, Tianyang found that there were at least 20 to 30 ships sailing out to sea.
"How long will it take us to get to the dark sea from here?" Moonlight's voice sounded, obviously asking Longdan.
Tianyang also turned around, leaned against the side of the boat, and felt the ups and downs of the ship in the sea.
Long Dan leaned against the side of the boat and said, "It's hard to estimate. It depends on how many coordinates of the 'Sea Well' Ah Kai knows."
"Haijing?" Tianyang obviously didn't know what this was.
Moonlight glanced at him and said, "This is a special phenomenon in the Deep Sea Fortress Reverse Realm. In the sea, there are gaps in the sea that are like wellheads. They are not formed by sea whirlpools. These wellheads and the passages that lead to them are surrounded by gentle energy, which naturally pushes away the seawater and forms natural passages in the sea."
"Each 'sea well' is fixed. Knowing more 'sea well' coordinates means that you know more sea passages. The existence of sea wells can greatly shorten the journey at sea. Sometimes you need to pass through several sea wells to reach a certain destination, but it saves a lot of time compared to normal sailing."
Long Dan nodded and added: "Experienced adventurers usually know a lot of 'sea wells' coordinates. Some people can even make a lot of money just by being a guide. If we use the sea well channel to go to dangerous places like the Dark Sea, we can avoid many maritime disasters and dangers."
Tianyang suddenly realized that this was what made Akai so valuable.
At this time, not far away, Tianyang saw a platform. There seemed to be a building on the platform.
Longdan pointed towards the platform and said, "There are many platforms like this on the sea. Research has shown that the land of this world was not submerged by the ocean all at once."
"After interpreting the information found in many ruins, we found that this world had a catastrophic era called 'Great Sea Tide' in the distant past. At that time, the sea level rose and submerged most cities and land, but it was not to the extent it is now."
"In order to survive, people at that time built a large number of offshore platforms. These platforms used concrete caissons to form the underwater base and steel columns to support the upper deck. There were many buildings on the deck. Small platforms could support dozens to nearly a hundred people. Large platforms could even support thousands of people, or even more."
"At that time, the murlocs had already appeared. The people in this world also mastered photography technology, so we found a lot of photos, which are all valuable information."
“It’s not difficult to find out from those materials that for a period of time, the survivors of this world actively resisted the invasion of the black people.
Unfortunately, it eventually became the world we have today."
As he was speaking, he saw A Kai waving at him from the control room.
Longdan clapped his hands and said, "Let's go and take a look."
The three of them came to the control room, and Longdan asked, "What's going on?"
"There's a 'Sea Dog' following us." A Kai pointed to a box next to him, "Open the box and use the No. 2 signal gun."
"Okay."
Longdan walked over and opened a black box. Inside was a row of signal guns, five in total from No. 1 to No. 5. He picked up No. 2 signal gun and walked out of the control room.
Tianyang gently touched the moonlight next to him and asked quietly: "What is a sea lion?"
Moonlight's eyes flashed with disdain: "Not all gold prospectors can find good guides, and not all guides know a large number of 'sea well' coordinates. Therefore, some gold prospectors will follow certain ships and follow these ships to explore somewhere, and even plunder may occur."
"These guys follow people around like dogs, and they are on the sea, so they are called 'sea dogs'."
"Don't expect those who are willing to be sea dogs to have principles, and they are usually people who need to be wary of them."
"Those people behind him should know Ah Kai. Seeing Ah Kai going out to sea, they all want to follow him and reap the benefits. Ah Kai asked Long Dan to fire a signal gun. Each numbered signal gun represents a different meaning. For example, signal gun No. 2 means that the place where the ship is about to go is a dangerous sea."
"In this case, if you still want to follow, you will have to weigh your own weight."
Tian Yang suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
At this time, a sharp whistle sounded on the deck. Longdan covered his ears with one hand and pointed to the sky with the other hand. He had already fired a flare. The flare soared straight up and then exploded into a red cloud in the sky.
A moment later, the radar next to the control panel showed that the number of ships following behind had decreased a lot, but there were still three ships following closely behind, which made A Kai frown.
Longdan came back picking his ears and asked, "How is it? The sea lions didn't follow us, did they?"
Without waiting for Akai to answer, he had already seen the blip on the radar and couldn't help but curse, "There are still three more. They are really not afraid of death."
Akai didn't answer.
After sailing for nearly an hour, Ah Kai suddenly said, "The entrance to the sea well is ahead. Go find a seat, fasten your seat belts, and secure yourself."
"Also, help me close the door. I don't want anyone to be thrown out when I pass by the sea well."
Long Dan said immediately: "I'll do it, I'll do it."
When he closed the door, A Kai picked up the communicator, contacted the nearby ship of the 'Fishman Association', and repeated what he had just said.
Tianyang and his companions sat on the chairs at the back, which were fixed to the floor and could not be moved. There were three safety belts on the seats, and a guardrail in front to secure them so that they would not leave the seats, and it could also be used as a handrail.
After Tianyang sat down, he fastened his seat belt, pulled up the guardrail and locked it. Then he saw Akai also sat down and took the same safety measures.
A moment later, Tian Yang saw clearly on the electronic screen above the control room that
A huge gap appeared. It was like a gap formed by a whirlpool in the sea, but this area of the sea was relatively calm, and there was no natural landscape such as a whirlpool. It seemed that someone had dug out a piece of it.
Looking into this "sea well", there was a faint light inside, but it was bottomless and the surroundings were extremely smooth, like a tunnel in the sea.
"get ready."
A Kai said this, then clicked a few times on the control screen, and the armor on both sides of the ship opened up, and a slightly curved wide metal sled lowered from inside.
A Kai turned off the propeller of the ship and let the sea water push the ship to the edge of the "sea well". When half of the ship's hull extended out of the edge of the sea well, the hull began to sink.
"Hold on tight!"
Ah Kai yelled, and at the same time, the speed of the boat's downward movement increased. Several people on the boat fell forward involuntarily, but their safety belts and the guardrails on their seats provided good protection.
Tianyang and Yueguang used their limbs to lightly push against the sides of the seats and the ground to secure themselves to their seats. Even without seat belts and guardrails, they would not fall out.
Longdan was extremely nervous at this time. He held the railing tightly with both hands. Because he was holding too tightly, the color of his hands turned a little bluish.
When the angle between the ship and the sea level exceeds 60 degrees, the ship plunges into the "sea well". The passage in the sea well is not vertically downward, but inclined downward. Once the ship enters the sea well passage, the wide metal skids on both sides support the hull to slide in the passage.
The sea well channel was filled with faint energy glows, which should have been scattered around, dotted like stars.
But because the ship was gliding too fast, looking out from the control room, Tianyang could only see a burst of light, as if they were traveling in a tunnel of light.
Longdan next to him was already yelling loudly, as if only this could release the fear in his heart.
Moonlight was speechless. He shook his head at Tianyang and looked towards the front of the boat calmly.
In fact, there were very few people who could remain calm at this time. After all, the ship was sliding down too fast, and even Tianyang felt like he would be thrown out at any time.
Moreover, when the ship was moving, A Kai also opened some armor plates on both sides of the ship, revealing rows of boosters. He used these boosters to adjust the sliding angle from time to time, so the ship drifted left and right from time to time. Every time it drifted, Longdan would scream.
Suddenly, Tianyang saw what seemed to be the remains of a ship in front of the passage. He didn't know why it was stuck in the passage. Just as he was about to hit it, he saw a flash of fire at the bow. A Kai fired a missile, hitting the wreckage in front and blowing it away, allowing the ship to slide past smoothly.
After passing another sharp turn, Tianyang felt the boat begin to slide upwards, and at this moment, Akai suddenly pushed a joystick next to him upwards.
The hull shook violently, and then the speed increased again. The ship was shaking violently and rushed upward along the channel.
It turned out that at this time, the two high-power boosters at the stern were operating at the same time, spraying out thick columns of fire, pushing Akai's ship up like a rocket.
In this situation, Tianyang and others were pinned to their seats by a terrifying force, unable to move.
A moment later, Tianyang saw the ship fly out of the sea well and into the air.
They came out of the sea well passage!
