Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

This is a kind of biological instinct engraved in genes, which can give creatures a natural ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and also includes sensitive suspicions that are close to predicting.

"A rapid heart rate has been detected, do you need help?"

Luo Qi's breathing gradually became steady, but the sound of heartbeat became more obvious after the sound of breathing quieted down.

He tried to take a deep breath, then braced himself.

But soon, this vast and boundless darkness once again swallowed his passion.

Luo Qi really wanted to pat his face to wake up, but he was not allowed to do so because he was wearing a heavy mech.

The speed of propulsion is not fast, because battery life has to be considered.

The terrain scanners didn't pick up anything, and the occasional strange blip that would appear on the radar and then disappear without a trace made him a little nervous.

Maybe it's just a passing fish, at worst, it's just some strange and unknown creatures.

It can't be the sea monster Leviathan or the giant Neptune, right?

With such a mood in mind, Luo Qi continued to move towards the goal in a complicated manner.

"No, I'm fine."

After Luo Qi was questioned again, he opened his mouth to answer.

"But...maybe you could play... some music that puts me in the mood? Like... Bo Bo Chicken?"

"Retrieving..."

The system started to circle in circles with dignity.

Then it declared failure because there was no network.

"Fuck, I knew it."

Luo Qi let out a breath and sighed.

"Playing another soothing song for you..."

However, the clever system assistant quickly started to play the files it has saved locally on its own initiative.

"Dengdeng, Dengdengdengdengdengdeng..."

A burst of familiar synth drum beats.

Luo Qi suddenly felt bad.

Then, listening to the familiar string prelude, he closed his eyes.

cheated again.

Old Rick's voice rang in his ears, and the lively and sunny arrangement and singing came into Luo Qi's ears and echoed throughout the entire mech.

Suddenly, Luo Qi felt like, isn't it so scary?

And this song seems to be quite touching.

With such a mood, Luo Qi's breathing became much smoother.

The surrounding darkness seemed no longer so scary, and a feeling of peace of mind involuntarily spread from the bottom of his heart, as if infected by sea water.

“Never gonna give you up↗, never gonna let you down~~~”

Bad news: you've been scammed

Good news: it sounds good

After Luo Qi cycled several times in a row, he couldn't stop at all.

Even at the back, they all began to hum along softly.

In the depths of the ocean 1000 meters below the sea surface, the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.

So just like that, a guy with the aura of "Deep Sea Liar" slowly approached the place where the signal was.

I don't know how long it took, and after Luo Qi even lost the concept of time, some large-scale things finally appeared in the range of the terrain scanner.

A... huge ramp?

Rocky didn't quite know what that was.

Because it just appeared on the fringe, just an outline.

As the distance progressed, the feedback points received by the scanner again and again were generated into a complete topographic map in the computer, and only then did he know what it was——

The edge of the cliff.

At the edge, there is a steep slope up to 200 meters wide.

Ahead is the flatter continental shelf, which is very shallow. Luo Qi has been floating several hundred meters before he can clearly see the trend of the terrain.

And going down is a steep slope that doesn't make sense.

First, there is a large inclination angle of more than 45°, and then there is a cliff that is almost vertical.

In just a few hundred meters, the height of the lowest point quickly changed from a few hundred to a few thousand, an absolute super cliff.

What makes Luo Qi feel a little nervous is that these salt layers are far from the imagined seabed.

It's not like solid ground, but soft and distorted, with a whitish-looking dark gray color, like a creep that hatches something weird and indescribable.

At this time, Luo Qi was already more than 20 kilometers away from the freighter in an absolute horizontal position.

Here, no one can help him, only himself.

Although a little disgusted by these salt layers mixed with unknown substances, Luo Qi still resisted and retreated, maintaining a distance of hundreds of meters from which he could observe the situation of the cliff, allowing the system to take over the power and maintain a smooth descent.

"Where is the deepest I can go?"

Luo Qi looked at the depths of the ocean that was so dark that even the terrain scanner couldn't see the bottom, trying to capture some information with his eyes, but unfortunately it just failed.

So he asked his assistant.

"The maximum dive depth is 2500 meters, and the short-term limit load depth is 3000 meters."

The assistant still had the same tone.

"Can you go down to 3000 meters in a short time?"

Rocky guessed.

The lowest depth in this area is about 3700 meters, which means that 3000 meters is enough to get a glimpse of the bottom of the sea.

But the problem is that this is not absolutely safe.

Once there is a problem with the power armor on the seabed of 3000 meters, it is really not working every day, and the ground is not working.

Luo Qi didn't want to be "a wise man", and then drowned here, that would be too useless.

"Go down first, go to 2000 meters to have a look."

After thinking about it, Luo Qi chose a more conservative number.

If this is not enough, then after he goes there, he may consider customizing a more pressure-resistant diving armor. If it is not possible, it is not impossible to drive a scientific research submarine that can go down to 8000-[-] meters.

Of course, that is another price.

But one thing is very strange, Luo Qi did not see any military technology mining facilities nearby.

Logically speaking, they should have a base, otherwise there is no way to rely on submarines to transport them one by one.

That is simply a barbaric and primitive method of picking.

Look at the oil and gas drilling platforms they have inserted all over the Gulf of Mexico, and you will know that they are definitely not the ones who are stingy with investment.

Altitude continued to drop.

The deeper he went into the sea, the colder Luo Qi felt.

On the sea surface, there is direct sunlight, and the temperature of the sea water is actually not bad.

The lower you go, the lower the temperature of the seawater is compared with the temperature of normal human life.

But this low is not unlimited.

Otherwise, the bottom of the sea should be all ice.

So what is the limit value?

4 ° C.

Because at this temperature, seawater has the greatest density.

On the seabed of several kilometers, the pressure on the seawater is also extremely huge, so they will be compressed to the limit, that is, the state of density as high as possible.

That is the temperature.

This is a happy temperature for scientific expedition personnel in the North and South Poles, much warmer than the environment of tens of degrees below zero.

But for Luo Qi, he was like a frozen living person.

"Damn it, it's like turning on the air conditioner."

Luo Qi felt more and more that the metal part of the mech became cold, like a freezer that was releasing cold all the time.

But still within the tolerable range.

This kind of coldness allowed him to experience the characteristics of the deep sea from the perspective of temperature.

But he didn't have much fear.

Instead, he was breathing evenly, with a calm mood, and even some joy.

But soon, he stopped laughing.

At a depth of 2000 meters, the terrain scanners began to detect some spikes emerging from the seafloor.

That's a mountain on the ocean floor that could have formed for any number of reasons.

Some undersea highlands also appeared in the scanning range.

For the most part, however, there was still absolute silence.

The bottom of the Gulf of Mexico is flat.

He had to descend at least a few hundred meters to get an overview of the seabed at about 3700 meters.

But in that case, it will be infinitely close to the limit depth of stable work, or even slightly exceeded.

However, in the design of industrial products, some margins are often reserved.

For example, for an elevator with a load of one ton, it is not a problem if it is of good quality to carry one and a half tons, but if it is used for a long time, there will definitely be hidden dangers.

The same goes for diving armor.

Therefore, the assistant does not recommend that Luo Qi take the risk of staying at a depth of more than 2500 meters for a long time.

"No matter what, let's go down first."

Luo Qi took a deep breath, and continued to feel the steady thrust of the propelling backpack on his back to ensure an even descent speed, rather than accelerating the sinking to the bottom.

The terrain scanner peered over and over, slowly revealing part of the ocean floor to Rocky's heads-up display.

This is not someone's backyard tub.

Luo Qi couldn't see the whole picture of the Gulf of Mexico, and it was difficult to even glimpse a corner.

But he was close enough to the cliff to confirm his position.

Beneath the cliff is a huge undersea basin, which is far larger than the territory of many countries.

At this moment, a discordant thing suddenly appeared in his topographical map.

It appeared to be a gigantic man-made object with angular and spherical outlines.

Undersea base! ?

Chapter 550: The Wall of Sighs Cracked!

That is definitely a human creation.

Natural things may be generated very regularly, but it is extremely difficult to have such a complex combination, let alone have so-called functionality.

Seeing the vault skeleton that was clearly written to enhance the structural strength, Luo Qi confirmed his thoughts even more.

The uncanny workmanship of nature can create the continental slope of the salt layer accumulated over tens of millions of years, and it can also create towering peaks on the seabed, but it will definitely not create an underwater base on the seabed.
