Deep Sea Diary [Another World]

Latitude 32°20′N, longitude 64°45′W, Bermuda sea area, midsummer.

Above the sea about 200 kilometers away from the Bahamas, a disaster is raging——

The turbulent sea was sucked up several thousand meters by the strong wind, and connected with the black wave-like cumulonimbus clouds, standing up against the sky, like a sea dragon soaring upwards, twisting and rotating in the sea.The place where it passed was a mess, and countless sea fishes that couldn't dodge were wrapped up and rolled into the sky, even including a boat that was too small in tonnage and not strong enough to hold.

Such seaspouts are not uncommon in summer, but it is troublesome to happen in the sea area of ​​Bermuda, especially when there are four seaspouts in succession...

At a depth of more than [-] meters underwater, Xia Chuan's hands and feet had already started to go numb, as if he was drunk and out of control of his brain, his chest was humming.

Xia Chuan is no stranger to such a state. When diving in the sea beyond a certain depth, this kind of "anesthesia" reaction will appear.And he has dived nearly [-] meters underwater more than once without any breathing apparatus, and returned safely.

But this time, past diving experience did not help him at all...

Because the sea area he was in was too weird.

Just 10 minutes ago, he was still intact on a cruise ship, but in the blink of an eye, the cruise ship was pushed into this strange area at an extremely fast speed by four seaspouts.

The color of the sea water in this area is obviously darker than that of the surrounding area, gloomy, with an indescribably dead air, and even the seaspout raging at high speed on the sea has somehow bypassed it.

At that time, Xia Chuan, who was still on the cruise ship, had been staying next to a blond man, who was his mission target this time—an important researcher of WES Company, Dennis Perry.

He was about the same age as Xia Chuan, but he looked like a dog and was very energetic, but when the sea dragon appeared, he grabbed Xia Chuan's arm, howling like a pig, wishing it could be heard eight miles away, almost Howled all the people's share of the boat.

Xia Chuan hated it so much, and couldn't find something suitable to gag him, so he could only look out the window with a cold face, and let him call.

It wasn't until the four jets of water that reached the sky finally left the cruise ship and twisted away that the embarrassing thing let Xia Chuan's ears go, took a breath and sighed: "Thank God it's finally gone!"

Like him, most of the people on board thought they were safe for the time being.Only Xia Chuan, who was leaning against the window, looked at the obvious dividing line between depth and depth on the sea surface, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

As if in response to his uneasiness, almost ten seconds later, there was another commotion on the boat, because one after another people noticed that the sea water disappeared silently through the window in an instant——

After the cruise ship fell into that area, it sank straight into the sea, like throwing a stone into a shallow pool, without even hitting a whole body, it just fell like that.

The boat exploded immediately, no one wanted to be trapped in it and sink with the boat, not to mention that the boat sank too fast, and the turbulent sea water poured in as soon as everyone made a move.

For a while, no one cared about the escape arrangements of the captain and the crew, and their survival instinct prompted them to rush towards the exit crazily.

While Xia Chuan picked up Dennis, he even pulled out two more people who were stuck.

But when they broke free from the cruise ship, they encountered an even more bewildering situation-they couldn't float at all in this weird sea area.

Those who can swim and those who can't, all fall straight into the deeper sea like a big and heavy cruise ship. All struggles are in vain, and it has no effect except to increase the loss of oxygen.

It's as if the buoyancy of this sea area has been pulled out by someone...

Xia Chuan sank in such a sea for more than two minutes, which is different from free diving without a breathing device.

Freediving still has a diving suit, but he entered the water in a shirt and trousers, without any preparatory activities, and there is a Dennis who is about the same size as him hanging on his right leg.This guy's other abilities aside, he is extremely agile when pulling his arms and hugging his thighs.

No matter how experienced Xia Chuan is, he is powerless in this situation.

Oxygen will always be exhausted, but this deep sea seems to be endless...

The feeling of suffocation makes life worse than death, but the hands and feet are so heavy that I can't lift them even after struggling.

In a trance, Xia Chuan saw a large clump of foam rushing towards him from the deep sea of ​​Senlan, followed by a burst of extremely severe headache, tearing his eyes black, and completely lost consciousness .

It is said that before a person dies, all the things that everyone has experienced from childhood to adulthood, whether they remember it or not, will emerge from the depths of their minds and replay their lives in a very short period of time.

This is [-]% nonsense.

Xia Chuan has lived for 28 years, and it is not too short to say whether it is long or short. Even if he has always been cold and ignorant of people, and the main activity in the past six or seven years has been licking blood on the tip of a knife, it will not be too short in the near future. There is not even a moment worth looking back at before death.

But that's what happened.

He only dreamed that he was standing on a piece of water, staggering, as if his legs were weak, and he couldn't stand still.

The undulating water patterns under the feet make people dizzy, and if one is not careful, it is easy to fall into it with a top-heavy head and a light head.

He saw the water waves rippling away, and then one after another pale human face slowly emerged from the depths.

The faces of those people were distorted and blurred due to the relationship between the water lines, but Xia Chuan in the dream always felt a little familiar. He squinted his eyes and moved closer to the water surface, trying to see them clearly, but they were always still a short distance away from the water surface. time disappears.

This scenario has been repeated many times over and over again.

The closer Xia Chuancou was to the water surface, the further away those faces were, and they were separated by a layer from the beginning to the end, so they couldn't see clearly...

If this is the last scene he saw before he died, then God probably deliberately made things difficult for the obsessive-compulsive disorder patient, and would not allow him to die in peace.

Xia Chuan in the dream finally couldn't help frowning, and impatiently continued to consume endlessly. When the human face appeared again, he directly bent over and stretched out his hand to fish in the water.As a result, his fingers were entangled by something cold and slippery underwater.The force of that thing was astonishingly strong, and Xia Chuan lost his balance and fell into the water when he pulled it suddenly.

The moment he fell, he was startled, subconsciously took a deep breath, gulped down a mouthful of salty water, and coughed until his heart and lungs hurt.

With this cough, the deep and slightly swaying water surface and the pale and cold face in the dream completely disappeared, replaced by rustling sounds in my ears, which gradually became clear from blurred, accompanied by the sound of severe coughing Humming tinnitus, and drum-like heartbeat, it was a bit noisy.There are the sounds of running water, wind, rustling of branches and leaves, sharp birdsong, and even... a howling sound like an elephant? !

The more Xia Chuan heard it, the more he felt something was wrong. After coughing for a while, he finally tried to open his eyes.

The glare of the sun made his eyes swell, he couldn't help frowning, and raised his still heavy hand to cover it for a while, and then he slowly got used to it.

What catches the eye is an open and unobstructed blue sky. There are a few larger birds circling in the sky, but the distance is too far, only a silhouette can be seen, and it is hard to tell whether it is a seagull or something else...

Xia Chuan half-closed his eyes, stared at the seabirds in the extremely high distance for a long time, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart—it seemed that he was really lucky, and he was able to open his eyes again under such circumstances. Opportunity.

The place under his body was very hard, and there were protruding edges and corners in several places, which made people's skin tingling and painful. It was probably a reef near the coast.

Enduring the soreness all over his body, Xia Chuan frowned and tried to sit up, but he felt something heavy on his legs, which made half of his body almost unconscious.

Xia Chuan: "..."

Reminiscent of the previous scene in the sea, he twitched the corners of his mouth and lifted his upper body to look at it—as expected, the guy who had hugged him like a life-saving straw since he fell into the water was still hanging on his leg.It's just that the clothes were torn several times for some reason, and they were crinkled and stuck to his body, with patches of mottled salt stains. Matching his posture of hanging on the reef like a dead dog, it was like a piece of bacon that was drying. It's so beautiful that I can't bear to take a second look.

Xia Chuan was about to pull his leg out from under Dennis, when he felt the 1.8-meter piece of bacon move, and then he coughed earth-shatteringly while hugging his leg, and spat out the seawater he had choked on.

Xia Chuan: "..."

He glanced at the small puddle of water expressionlessly, and pulled back his leg without hesitation.The bacon Dennis was turned over by the lead, spread out in a big font on the reef, panting heavily.

The two rested on the reef for a while before they fully recovered.

"Are you okay, Chuan? Haven't we been sinking into the deep sea before, why are we lying here now? Could it be that a rescue team has rushed over? Then where are they... What the hell, is this still Bermuda? ?” As soon as Dennis had the energy, he began to fall out like a pea, and while asking, he sat up and looked around: “Why do I feel… something is wrong?”

Xia Chuan was given a headache by his series of questions, and simply ignored all the previous ones, and only answered the last sentence: "It's really not right."

They didn't know how long they had been drying on the reef. Xia Chuan's shirt was more than half dried, but just like Dennis, it also had a few salt stains.When he answered, he was frowning and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt to his elbows, without even raising his eyelids, let alone raising his head to look around, and his tone was so flat that he said, "Well, the sun is quite bright."

"..." Dennis felt as if he had been perfunctory.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xia Chuan rolled up his cuffs, calmly tapped his long, thin, white fingers to the left, and said, "There is something under the water, and it's not small." As if he was too lazy to make any effort, and the sound quality was a bit cold. Under such circumstances, matching the content of his words, the hairs on Dennis' back stood up all at once.

He looked in the direction Xia Chuan pointed, and saw that the color of the sea water was indeed a bit strange, as if some sea beast was lurking about ten meters below the surface of the water.

But if the wrong color is all that thing, it's too...big...

Dennis swallowed silently, stared at the sea surface with a stiff neck, and no longer dared to bluff and pour beans out, for fear of shocking that thing.

But just because he behaves, doesn't mean the other party behaves as well.

Within a few seconds, he watched helplessly as the shadow moved, and then it got deeper and deeper, getting closer to the sea surface...

Soon, with the sound of "crashing", the huge monster floated to the surface of the sea, less than five meters away from the reef where the two of them stayed.

Dennis' eyeballs almost met, and he looked like he couldn't breathe.

Xia Chuan's face was cold, and while staring at the behemoth, he raised his hand calmly and put it on Dennis' wrist, as if he was ready to make a move at any time.

I don't know if it's his illusion or what, but he always feels that the sea beast Senhan's eyes look weird...

Dennis trembled from his touch, and the eyeballs that were about to roll over finally returned to their normal positions, and he could clearly see the appearance of the sea beast.

But seeing this, he trembled again.

Xia Chuan frowned: "... What are you shaking?"

In the end, Dennis shrank his body back, and said to him in a very soft voice with a stiff neck: "...Why do I think this sea beast looks a bit like a mosasaurus?"

Xia Chuan: "..."

Before he could open his mouth, Dennis laughed dryly again and denied himself: "No, no, it must be because I spent too much time in the laboratory before, or I haven't recovered from drowning. After all, mosasaurs are creatures from the Cretaceous period. , went extinct with the dinosaurs long ago, how could it appear here, hahahaha—”

His series of "hehe" hadn't finished yet, and a howl-like cry came from a distance away, the same as what Xia Chuan heard when he was half awake.

Xia Chuan glanced at the huge monster floating on the sea surface, and saw that it was not moving for a while, so he followed the "elephant howl" and looked obliquely behind - at a distance of about [-] meters from them, the sea water came to an end. Behind the narrow beach is a large dense forest that can't be seen.

That "elephant howl" came from that dense forest, but the forest was too dense, and when viewed from a distance, nothing could be seen except the wavy branches and leaves.

The two frowned, and just about to turn their heads and continue to stare at the behemoth in the sea, they saw the trees on the edge of the dense forest tremble a few times, and then, a huge head emerged from the forest, taller than many trees. Be taller.That appearance is almost the same as the dinosaurs commonly seen in movies and TV shows. If you have to choose a different one, it is probably the one in the forest that looks fiercer and more frightening...

Dennis froze there like a cassette. After a long time, he turned his neck "click" and looked at the sea beast in the sea that looked like a mosasaur in shape and size. After being dazed for a long time, he finally rolled his eyes, "Oh "With a thud, he pouted completely.

Five meters away, the Mosasaurus quietly floating on the sea staring at him opened its mouth silently, and spit out its forked tongue like a snake letter. The rows of white teeth were so sharp that they could stab people right through. It's no joke at first glance!

Xia Chuan: "..."
