After hugging the tail of the fish

Yu Guiyang didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately called the captains of each team and asked them to arrange the mermaids in their teams to patrol the surrounding area.

Gao has always disliked Yuan Lie, and they have fought quite a lot in the past month, each winning or losing.

Hearing Yu Guiyang say that it was because of Yuan Lie's intuition that he made such a big move, although he didn't say anything on the spot, but after the captains of the other teams left, he found Yu Guiyang alone: ​​"Little mermaid, you just trust that Yuan Lie so much. ?”

Yu Guiyang glanced at Gao in surprise.

It's not because of Gao's question, but because Gao actually knew to ask him in private, and didn't raise this question in public, embarrassing him and Yuan Lie.

"I've made progress," he praised without hesitation. "In the past, you wouldn't have cared about other mermaids, you would have asked them on the spot."

Gao smiled shyly, "It's all taught by Cos."

Yo, is this a show?

He asked curiously, "How far have you and Coase developed?"

"What step, don't talk nonsense!" Gao muttered, "I asked you and you haven't answered me yet."

Yu Guiyang: "You mean why I believe in Yuan Lie?"

"That's right." Gao seemed to have a strong opinion of Yuan Lie, "That kid must have no good intentions for agreeing to join our tribe. Last time he punched me ten times, I only punched him fifteen times!"

All right, he really shouldn't have too high expectations for Gao.

"Did you want to ask this question, or did Cos ask you to ask it?" Yu Guiyang didn't think that Gao had such an IQ, and he knew the purpose of doubting Yuan Lie.

Gao scratched his head: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. Kos told me that he was worried about what Yuan Lie would do to the ocean tribe while we were scattered, so let me ask you whether Yuan Lie can be trusted."

He also considered what Coase was worried about.

So he left enough manpower in Hailing just to prevent Yuan Lie from doing anything.

However, he was more willing to believe that Yuan Lie would not do this. This mermaid, who is used to going straight, would not think so many detours, just like Gao had no idea that Yuan Lie might be detrimental to the ocean tribe.

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements." Yu Guiyang said, "The top priority is to investigate all potential hidden dangers and find out the factors that make Yuan Lie uneasy."

Gao was puzzled: "You just trust that kid's intuition so much? Then I still feel that I can eat big fish and meat every day."

Yu Guiyang shook his head and laughed: "Look at how promising you are, that's all right, hurry up and go about your work, time is running out, don't dawdle."

Who doesn't want to eat big fish and big meat? Gao's is not called intuition, but hallucination.

After sending Gao away, Yu Guiyang began to think about what else he missed.

He is not superstitious about Yuan Lie's intuition, but at this juncture, a little detail is enough to determine success or failure.

It's only mid-January now, and it stands to reason that the major estuaries of the Arctic Ocean are still in the freezing period.

If humans really want to catch mermaids during their breeding season, they will definitely wait until the ice and snow melt, otherwise the boats will not be able to come in, and everything will be empty talk.

Excluding the human factor, what else would it be?

Yu Guiyang frowned, and immediately thought of an answer, natural disaster.

However, the central area of ​​the Arctic Ocean is covered with ice all year round, and there are few large-scale disasters. It is in a relatively stable period.

Could it be that Yuan Lie's feeling was wrong?Or did Yuan Lie have other plans?

On the other side, Chi Yuan arranged a team to patrol the area, and then came back to look for Yu Guiyang.

The two mermaids meet at the mouth of the Ridge Cave.

He asked Chi Yuan: "Have you found anything?"

Chi Yuan held his hand: "Don't worry, my team members will report back in time if there is any situation."

As the core of the Ocean Tribe, Yu Guiyang had to stay in Hailing, firstly to hold his ground, and secondly to make it easier to change orders at any time.

"You don't have to guard me," Yu Guiyang looked at Chi Yuan, "It's safe here, you can rest assured."

He arranged for the sixth team and the pregnant female mermaids to stay here, fully accounting for half of the mermaids in the ocean tribe.

Chi Yuan also knows that there is no need to worry about the safety of the little mermaid: "Then be careful."

Yu Guiyang nodded, and the two mermaids exchanged a hasty kiss.

He watched Chi Yuan leave.

At this moment, Yuan Lie swam to Yu Guiyang's side: "Little mermaid, I'm starting to admire you a little bit."

Yu Guiyang turned his head: "What?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will take this opportunity to hurt you?" Yuan Lie asked in a deep voice.

Yu Guiyang knew well that when Yuan Lie asked this question, it meant that Yuan Lie could not hurt him: "So you will?"

Yuan Lie snorted disdainfully: "I like fighting, but I don't like sneak attacks. When you grow up, we can have a fight."

Yu Guiyang raised his forehead, and he really wanted to tell Yuan Lie that a mermaid of his type could only grow so big.

I really let you down.

But now is not the time for small talk: "Did Team Seven find anything?"

Yuan Lie shook his head: "I found nothing. I really couldn't see any changes around me. I followed my intuition and led my team to search around, but I found nothing except some fat prey."

As he spoke, he pulled out a cod from his seaweed belt: "Do you want to eat it? I just caught it."

Yu Guiyang wanted to refuse at first, but he thought that sitting in Hailing would be impossible without physical strength, so he immediately took Yuan Lie's cod: "Thank you."

"Perhaps my intuition is really wrong." Yuan Lie wished this was the case, "Look at this place, it hasn't changed much after so many years, how can there be any big things happening?"

Does it change?

Yu Guiyang was thoughtful, and the general outline of the Arctic Ocean, as well as the surrounding ocean and land appeared in his mind.

For him, the map of the world has long been familiar, not to mention the ocean that he is more interested in.

He has only experienced such a migration, and all his knowledge of the breeding season of mermaids comes from this.So he has no idea what changes have taken place in the Arctic Ocean this year and in the past.

At most, the greenhouse effect is more serious, and the area covered by ice and snow is less.

No matter how much more, he couldn't tell.

He had to ask Yuan Lie: "Tell me about what the Arctic Ocean used to be like. It's my first time here, so I'm very curious about it."

Yuan Lie did not suspect him, and told Yu Guiyang everything he knew.

It turns out that the original Iceland was not the Iceland they are now.

A few years ago, when he was not yet an adult, he came to Iceland for the first time with his parents, and the Iceland he went to was not so close to the center of the North Pole.

Yu Guiyang thought that it should be due to the greenhouse effect, which caused the snow on Iceland to melt.

Huh, but that is a whole island, it is impossible to say that the ice and snow on the island will disappear within a year.

You must know that the water vapor above the island is sufficient and the climate is humid. In the coming winter, the island should still be covered with snow and become "Iceland" in the eyes of the mermaids.

According to Yuan Lie, the island completely lost its ice and snow cover within a year, so that they had to swim for an extra day and night before reaching Iceland.

In the years that followed, too, the island never became Iceland again.

"Can you take me to have a look?" Yu Guiyang asked.

Yuan Lie: "Are you interested in that island?"

Yu Guiyang nodded, not wanting to say more.He always felt that no island would change from a snow-covered Iceland to an ordinary island in just one year.

There must be some unknown reasons for this.

Yuan Lie took Yu Guiyang to swim to Iceland, because the distance was far away, Yu Guiyang ordered other mermaids before leaving, if Chi Yuan came back, let him go to the original Iceland to find him.

Half a day later, Yu Guiyang and Yuan Lie finally arrived at their destination.

What shocked him was that this former Iceland was located not far from "Iceland".Of course, the "Iceland" here is not Iceland where mermaids spend their breeding season, but an island named Iceland by humans, located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean.

As Iceland's companion island, the former Iceland is noticeably smaller.

On top of it, traces of ferns can be vaguely seen, indicating that the temperature on the island is not up to the standard for mermaid reproduction.

The other "Iceland" is a completely different scene, covered with thick snow and ice, and you can even see the unique wonders of "Iceland".

"Let's take a closer look." Yu Guiyang suggested.

Yuan Lie frowned: "It can't be too close, there are humans living on that island, so although it can be regarded as Iceland, mermaids will not choose to breed here."

Yu Guiyang shook his head: "It's okay, it's night, they won't find us."

Leaving the Arctic Circle, there has been a change of light and dark here.

Fortunately, it was still night, otherwise he really wouldn't dare to take the risk.

Yuan Lie had no choice but to head towards "Iceland" with Yu Guiyang.

As they got closer, Yu Guiyang was even more sure that this was the "Iceland" in his memory.He has been here before, visited the magnificent blue ice cave - lava tunnel, and also seen the ice lake formed after the crustal plate broke.

At that time, he was still thinking that he would try his luck next time he had the opportunity to see if he could see the aurora.

Fate played a big joke on him.

He suddenly thought of something, and pulled Yuan Lie to swim to the island next to "Iceland".

"What's wrong?" Yuan Lie was taken aback, then excitedly said, "Did you find something?"

Yu Guiyang remained silent, he flicked his tail quickly, allowing himself to touch the land of this former Iceland.

Sure enough, the temperature here is much warmer than "Iceland", and it seems a bit out of place with the entire Arctic Ocean.

It is an active volcano, an active volcano without a vent!

Active volcanoes without vents, specifically, volcanoes that have not erupted since the formation of the island.

In fact, there are more than one such volcanoes in the country where he once lived.

That is the Ulan Hada volcano group.

The Ulan Hada volcano group is located in the central part of Inner Mongolia, in the area of ​​Ulan Hada, Chahar Right Wing Back Banner.Continuous volcanoes surround each other, and the Ulan Hada volcano in the middle is the most spectacular one of them, known as the "Volcano Museum".

Even this volcanic group that has been sleeping for thousands of years has not completely erupted.They once erupted once more than 6000 years ago, leaving a volcanic vent and then falling silent.

And this former Iceland is actually a volcano that has not erupted.

Yu Guiyang traveled deep along the island, and sure enough, its foundation is located on the mid-Atlantic Ridge, which is in the same line as "Iceland".

He boldly speculated that the reason why the volcano did not erupt was because "Iceland" in front of it relieved the accumulated magma.

You know, there are at least 30 volcanic systems on "Iceland", including more than 130 volcanoes running through the whole island, it is simply a super volcano!

It shared most of the magma for the small island behind, so that it never erupted once from the beginning to the end, which can be said to be very loving.

But that doesn't mean the former Iceland will never erupt.

The most direct manifestation is that it was still an Iceland many years ago, but now there are vegetation.

The surface temperature of this island was already abnormal, and Yu Guiyang couldn't help guessing that the interior of this island might already be full of hot magma.

It's just because the internal pressure is shared by "Iceland", so until now there is not enough energy for an eruption.

"Hey, what's going on, tell me something!" Yuan Lie was dying of anxiety.

Yu Guiyang's expression was a little dignified: "Don't make noise, let me think about it."

There is a word called thick accumulation and thin hair.

This island has endured long enough, and once it erupts, it will be a huge catastrophe.

He had no way of knowing when the island would erupt, he thought, anyway, it was already mid-January, and if it didn't work, he would leave here with the group.

He couldn't take the risk, and he couldn't afford the risk.

"Yuan Lie, I want to take the group away today, let's go back and prepare." Yu Guiyang said.

Yuan Lie was a little surprised by the decision to go abroad, but he didn't object: "That's it, okay, I'll listen to you this time."

"You go back and inform everyone that you are planning to move. I still want to go to another place." Yu Guiyang said.

Yuan Lie asked, "Where are you going? I'll let the mermaid accompany you."

"The undersea hydrothermal area, you don't know even if you tell me. Just convey what I want you to convey." After Yu Guiyang finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

The reason why he wanted to take a look at the submarine hydrothermal area was that he thought that the approximate time of the volcanic eruption could be judged from the activity of the submarine hydrothermal fluid.

Similar to the principle of volcanic eruption, submarine hydrothermal fluid is also discharged by the underground magma after a series of reactions that infiltrate the material infiltrated from the seabed gap.

When Kos discovered the hydrothermal area of ​​Rocky Castle, he didn't pay much attention to it, and just regarded it as a normal phenomenon.

Now that I think about it, is the eruption of hydrothermal fluid on the seabed also heralding something?

He didn't dare to delay, so he asked Yuan Lie to go back to Hailing first, while he went directly to the hydrothermal area of ​​Rocky Castle.

This is faster. If he returns to the sea ridge first and then goes to the hydrothermal area on the seabed, it will take at least half a day longer.

More than two hours later, Yu Guiyang arrived at the hydrothermal area of ​​Rocky Castle.

There was thick smoke billowing here, and there was much more hydrothermal fluid gushing out than last time.If the former Rocky Castle was like a chimney, now it is like a hut on fire, which may spread to the surrounding area at any time.

Uneasy, he set out again for the nearby sea ridge.

The ridges of the Arctic Ocean are criss-crossed, and they inhabit only a part of them.Most of these ridges are located on the mid-ocean ridges of the Arctic Ocean. That is to say, many ridges seem to be independent, but in fact they are connected, and their roots are in the mid-ocean ridges.

After confirming the geographical location, Yu Guiyang is almost certain that this mid-ocean ridge is the Gaikel Ridge, also known as the Jake Ridge.

The Gaykel Ridge is a well-known mid-ocean ridge in the Arctic Ocean, because it once experienced a huge shock just over 20 years ago.

But because it is deep enough, humans know very little about it, and can only judge that it has had a submarine volcanic eruption through the unique debris of volcanic eruptions.

Yes, there are many volcanoes on the Gaykel Ridge. These volcanoes may be some unknown sea ridge, or it may be just a sea hill.

But if they erupted together, they would be as powerful as the eruption of Mount Vesuvius that engulfed Pompeii.

The so-called stability of the Arctic Ocean he had thought before was only superficially stable.

This gave him the illusion that the Arctic Ocean was less dangerous than other oceans.

But in fact, waves and storms only cause crises on the sea surface, but the most terrifying thing is the dark tide in the ocean.

What shocked him even more was that in the deep sea, at the bottom of this sea ridge, he saw a stream of magma slowly oozing out.

The magma cracks are getting bigger and bigger, expanding from the length of an arm to the length of a mermaid.And the sea ridges are interconnected, if this continues, all the sea ridges on the Gaikel Ridge will be attacked by magma within a day!

At this moment, Yu Guiyang seemed to understand why he transmigrated into a mermaid.

Perhaps, fate made him a mermaid just to let him stop this tragedy that would destroy thousands of mermaids!

The author has something to say: don’t take the descriptions about the volcano too seriously, I made them up based on Iceland.

Except for this, I only dare to write after consulting the information, and the Gaekle Ridge does exist.
