In the darkness, Lin Fan was descending rapidly.
The unknown darkness did bring fear to her heart. She hugged her oxygen and backpack tightly with both hands and encouraged herself.
It fell for a while and then fell into the water with a "splash".
The water in the darkness was naturally pitch black as well. Fortunately, after Xingchen upgraded, his vision gradually improved. He could vaguely see through the darkness of a hundred or so meters and see far into the distance.
But this was only what Lin Fan saw.
Inside the tent, everyone watching the scene through the camera on the eyepiece could still only see the fluorescent light emitting from the stars' eyes, illuminating the small area.
"Lin Fan, the picture is not clear. Is it clear on your end?" Xue Ping's voice came from the headset.
"Can't you see clearly?" Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, "Let me take a look."
While she swam quickly along the route map in her memory, she tried to control the Xinglan system and adjust the camera clarity.
After fiddling with it for a while, the image on the screen didn't change at all. Instead, Lin Fan let out an "Ah!"
"What's wrong?" John Woo asked nervously.
Lin Fan looked at the perspective-like lines that appeared before his eyes, and his body paused for a moment.
After testing it a few times and confirming it was a new function of Xingchen, he continued on his way. "Nothing, it seems like a new function of the eyes has been activated. It's a bit like radar or perspective, and I can see a lot of lines."
"Huh?" A sigh of envy came from the headset. "We can't see anything here, and you're using radar? Didn't 800 say this artificial intelligence is the most advanced? What a piece of crap!"
"Hmm," Lin Fan faked a cough. "I'll convey your opinion to them. But the Xinglan system in the Starry Sky is just a camera and communication system. Maybe I don't know how to use it. I'll ask them later."
Xue Ping didn't say much.
This mission is urgent, and many aspects of the Stars matters between the Special Affairs Office and 800 have not yet been fully handed over. We cannot entirely blame them for this situation.
"By the way, did these two people go so deep?" Lin Fan didn't feel anything when she watched the video. When she came down by herself, she found that the passage was rugged and was already one or two thousand meters long.
"When they went down, the water hadn't risen yet," Xue Ping explained in his headset. "The passage they entered should have been low on the outside and high on the inside. Once the water came up and submerged the entrance, they naturally wouldn't be able to get out."
If you are unlucky, you will be soaked in water.
The Xinglan system has its own positioning system. As Lin Fan moves up and down below, the console displays her movement trajectory in real time.
As Xue Ping said, they went down first and then up. And the route was exactly the same as in the live video.
Their divers went down several times but couldn't find the correct entrance because it was too dark.
As expected of a star, it was effortless.
Not long after Lin Fan finished speaking, he jumped out of the water.
It was a sharp turn, and she hurried to control her momentum, almost hitting the top of the passage.
Although the star armor is hard and not afraid of collisions, Lin Fan can still feel friction and collisions. If it is possible to avoid touching the ground, it is better to do so.
Besides, Xingchen was fine, but what if the tunnel collapsed? Right? Given Xingchen's strength, it wasn't impossible.
Landing carefully on the ground, Lin Fan took in his surroundings.
This is a cave-like place, and the surrounding area seems to be made of limestone tissue, which is rough and has bumps everywhere.
Many people may have visited caves and thought they were colorful and beautiful. But without the lights, there is really nothing pleasant in the dark caves.
Lin Fan tried again and discovered that Xingchen's eyes could also transform into spotlight mode. A pale green light emanated from its narrow, narrow eyes, illuminating everything it touched.
"Oh my," Lin Fan cried softly, and quickly adjusted the lighting distance to about 150 meters in front of him before he walked forward with peace of mind.
"Aren't you really wasting a gift?" Xue Ping saw the scene on the screen suddenly become clear. After asking, he found out that Lin Fan was using his eyes as a flashlight.
"So what? Is it off?" Lin Fan chatted as they walked. "I can actually see clearly. Didn't you say you couldn't see clearly? Now that the light is on, you're disgusted?"
"No, no, no, I don't mind." How could Xue Ping dare to despise her?
Something to watch is better than nothing.
"Lin Fan, be careful to prevent any unknown objects from being attracted by the light." John Woo was more concerned about her safety.
"I see. I've already adjusted it. It's perfect now. I can see clearly and it's not too far away." Lin Fan agreed. "Besides, the two of them should have had flashlights before. If there was any problem, they should have helped to investigate. The good news is that nothing unusual has been found so far."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a "crack" sound under his feet, like the sound of broken glass.
Lin Fan looked down and saw that he had stepped on a cell phone.
She picked it up carefully. The screen was shattered, but the structure seemed fine.
"It's their phone." Xue Ping confirmed after comparing the information. "Can you turn it on and take a look?"
Lin Fan tried to turn on the phone, but the boot animation lit up, followed by a low-battery warning, and then the screen went black.
"There is a power bank and a data cable in the waterproof bag. Connect them and see if you can find any useful information from the phone." John Woo suggested.
Lin Fan followed orders, quickly charged his phone, put it in a waterproof bag, and continued walking forward.
"Since we saw the phone, that person must be up ahead." Lin Fan said with a hint of joy, "There's no water here, so maybe he's still fine."
"It's very likely." Xue Ping also nodded in confirmation. "Today is only the fifth day. We have air and water. Even if there is no food, the possibility of survival is still relatively high."
Everyone at the console was encouraged by the possibility and the atmosphere was very good.
Lin Fan continued to walk inside, and all she could hear were her own footsteps and the echo of her footsteps.
"Actually, dark places are still a bit scary." After walking for a long time, Lin Fan started to make small talk.
After all, she is a girl. How could she not be afraid when she is alone in such an environment?
She wasn't afraid last year, because she was fearless at that time.
She is not afraid, but others are afraid of her...
Now that she is better, others are no longer afraid of her, but she has begun to be afraid...
When Lin Fan thought of this, he suddenly felt a little conflicted.
She couldn't say which one was good or bad. Couldn't she just make a comprehensive assessment?
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Lin Fan, go forward bravely, go forward, don't look back..." Xue Ping said as he started singing. "How about I sing a song for you to give you courage?"
"...Forget it." Lin Fan refused without thinking.
Although Xue Ping's singing was in tune, perhaps due to its excessive force, it even had a ghostly, howling quality. This made Lin Fan even more panicked.
John Woo interrupted at the right time and talked about some light topics, which gradually made Lin Fan relax.
"Hey, there's a hole in the wall. Can I get in?" Lin Fan stood at the entrance of the hole and began to worry.
What should I do if I encounter a fork in the road? Urgent, waiting online.
The entrance to the cave is not big and seems a bit cramped for Xingchen.
If you want to go in without bumping into anything, you must shrink your body.
The light shines in, but the end is nowhere to be seen, and it's unclear what's going on inside. If you want to go in, you have to crouch down, which is definitely not a very comfortable state...
After discussing with Xue Ping, Wu Yusen decided to let her ignore the small hole for the time being and walk along the spacious main road.
After Lin Fan walked forward for a while, he suddenly felt a sound coming from the small cave and couldn't help but look back.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the ground beneath my feet suddenly collapsed, and Xingchen fell straight down. (_)(_)(_)(_)(_)(_)
When I was eating, I accidentally bit the meat on my lower jaw, and bit the same place 5 times... It hurt so much that tears came to my eyes.
