Everyone on the deck can observe the scene in front of the driver through the camera inside the mecha.
As the depth of the dive increased, almost nothing could be seen on the screen. Only the eyepiece in the field of vision was lit, still emitting a bright light.
At this time, the diving depth has reached more than 600 meters.
"Are you okay?" Yu Guangli asked, "How's Yufeng?"
Gao Fei already felt a very obvious sense of oppression inside the mecha, but others said it was okay.
Seeing Gao Fei didn't respond, Yu Guangli asked again, specifically advising, "Don't force yourself. If you're uncomfortable, then it's okay. Yufeng must have some flaw we haven't noticed. I suggest you come up first."
"Go up." Ji Yu said from the side, "The diving pressure will increase if you continue to descend. If there is a structural problem with Yufeng, then it will be very risky for you to continue."
"Gao Fei, go ahead." Song Ren ordered directly, "There will be plenty of opportunities like this in the future. There's no need to risk your life."
"Go ahead, Gao Fei. Don't let us worry about you." Li Chunhua also spoke.
Lin Fan swam directly to Yufeng.
She looked inside through the eyepiece. Gao Fei had a tense expression on his face and seemed to be in very bad condition.
"Team Leader Yu, pull him up," Lin Fan said directly into the intercom. "He looks terrible. We can't let him go down any further."
"Got it." Yu Guangli immediately ordered to turn on Yufeng's winch.
Gao Fei was quickly pulled out of sight. Although he was unwilling, he knew that it was pointless to persist. In fact, he could hardly move anymore.
Now that things have come to this, we can only cooperate to start the push and get up as soon as possible.
After watching Gao Fei leave, Lin Fan confirmed one by one that the remaining three people were in good condition, and the group continued to descend.
After about half an hour in the sea, the depth had reached more than 700 meters.
Yu Guangli gave an order, asking the three drivers of the bionic armor to go up first.
"Why? I feel okay. Although there is a sense of oppression, I don't feel very uncomfortable." Li Chunhua was a little unhappy.
Before the reply came from above, Ji Yu's answer came through first. "Look at the oxygen meter."
Li Chunhua saw that the oxygen supply was nearly half full. If they continued to descend, the oxygen they carried might not be enough for the return journey.
There is not enough oxygen in the sea like on land, and the oxygen capacity carried by the mecha is fixed.
The few of them had no choice but to prepare to return.
Because they didn't malfunction like the Yufeng, all three of them were able to move independently. In order to test the propulsion function, they were not pulled up by a winch, but were allowed to float up on their own.
"Lin Fan, you have to be careful." Although they were worried, they also knew that there was nothing they could do about the situation.
They rose slowly, leaving the stars behind. The white shell vaguely reflected the light in the sea water, and the stars disappeared into the darkness.
After the few people left, only Xingchen was left in the dark deep sea.
Lin Fan seemed to be able to hear his own breathing again, deafening in his ears.
"Xingchen, how do you feel?" Everyone on the deck also heard Lin Fan's breathing become noticeably louder. The sudden deep breath did not seem to be a good thing.
"It's okay, it was just too dark, and everyone left suddenly, so I felt a little..." Lin Fan smiled but didn't finish his words.
"Then you..." Yu Guangli was about to ask, "Do you want to come up first?" But Lin Fan spoke again before he could finish.
"Then I'll go down, quick, okay?" Lin Fan knew the purpose of this dive was to test his ability to withstand pressure and his diving depth limit. Without waiting for a response from above, he quickly descended.
Previously, she had to accommodate the other people's pace and always walked slowly. Now that she was alone, she no longer had to worry about speed.
"So fast!" exclaimed the staff on the deck.
The small dots representing stars sank into the deep sea at an extremely fast speed.
Through the star eyepiece, all you can see are many white microorganisms rapidly retreating under the green fluorescent light.
"Ouch!" Lin Fan suddenly shouted, and the small dots representing the stars on the screen stopped moving.
"What's wrong?" someone asked from the deck.
"It hit the ground." Lin Fan rushed down headfirst. When she saw the flat ground in front of her, it was too late to brake and she could only crash straight into it.
It didn't hurt at all, as he was in water and the ground was covered with fine sand. Lin Fan just shouted subconsciously.
"The ground? We shouldn't have reached the seabed yet, right?" Yu Guangli asked the team member next to him, "What's the depth of the star now?"
"More than 2,300 meters. She shouldn't have reached the seabed. The seabed should be more than 3,000 meters deep. She may have reached the fault part." The team member replied.
There were large ripples on the water surface, and Yufeng was coming.
Some people were busy pulling Yufeng.
Gao Fei was in a bad state and had no way of getting on the deck by himself. Fortunately, there was a hoisting device on the ship, and a group of people worked hard to finally pull Yu Feng up.
When Gao Fei got off the plane, he almost couldn't stand.
He was helped to take off his helmet. His face was pale, and his hair was soaked and stuck to his scalp.
"Sit down quickly." The person next to him wanted to help him to rest aside, but he waved his hand to refuse.
"Go...go over there." Gao Fei was worried about his companions in the water and wanted to go to the control console to check the latest situation.
Yu Guangli did not stop him. He had someone put a recliner next to him and let Gao Fei sit in front of the screen.
"Lin Fan, how are you now?" Yu Guangli had no time to pay attention to Gao Fei, and his attention returned to the people on the seabed.
"I'm at the bottom. I'm walking and seeing what's around me." Lin Fan had never seen what the seabed looked like before, and it was his first time walking on the seabed, so he felt fresh.
"Can you still bear the pressure?" Yu Guangli asked again.
"Nothing special." Lin Fan replied, "It's just dark everywhere and I can't see clearly."
When the eyes of the stars light up, they can emit green light for a distance in the darkness.
But the black seabed absorbs light too much, so the visible distance is not very far, and you can only see about two meters in front.
"Be careful and stay alert." Yu Guangli was a little worried, but he didn't dare to say much for fear of scaring her.
Lin Fan was a little scared at first, but after walking for a distance, he found that there was nothing there, and it was empty everywhere, so he gradually calmed down.
On the screen, everyone also saw a large area of the seabed that looked like a desert through the perspective of the stars.
"That's not right. There shouldn't be nothing on the seabed." One researcher felt strange.
"It's too deep. This is already in the deep sea area, and there are no living creatures there." Someone said.
"Is this the deep sea area?" Gao Fei frowned.
"Yes, it's more than 2,300 meters." Yu Guangli replied.
"Then..." Gao Fei didn't dare to continue.
He had heard since he was very young that in the pitch-black deep sea, there were many deep-sea monsters that ordinary people could not see.
Do those... really exist?
