"Behind the Mariana Trench outpost, there are black waters that are completely untouchable by humans. It is difficult to even transmit signals from that place!!"

"Guys, tell him what we're going to find there?!"

The crew members were still talking a lot.

And he obviously wanted to bring up old things again, and it was about those legends that the professor didn't want to pay attention to at all.

"Anything we can think of that Ryan wants to prove."

"And the biggest result of this scientific examination, Professor, you should have been looking forward to it the most."

"Let's just talk about it. It's pointless to keep arguing like this. Professor... you show that you are not afraid of Neptune Namor at all. Don't you have any respect for the legend?!"

Emotions gradually became more intense, and it was inevitable to gather together while speaking, and even Professor Stein was now surrounded in the middle.

The "deep sea people" who have been living in the deep sea all year round, far away from human civilization and plunged into darkness, have a... barbarism that is different from other professions.

After all, in places beyond the reach of civilization, where big fish are hunted to fill our stomachs, some physical contact is inevitable.

Now.

The crew members, who had muscles, even scars, and tattoos with various meanings on their bodies, gradually surrounded Professor Stein.

When your emotions are out of control, what will happen if you continue to talk?!

"Hey!!"

"Guys, please spread out. Our professor is a civilized person and he doesn't want to smell the dirty smell on your body that hasn't been washed in a week!!"

At this moment, Nelson stepped in. He was a tall and muscular man. He hugged one of the crew members and stood in front of Professor Stein.

Because of his height and strength, he was like a strong wall, completely blocking the professor behind him.

"I don't believe in Namor's existence. This is the difference between us..."

The situation became urgent, and Professor Stein's brain seemed to become particularly calm at this moment.

He stood behind Nelson and said these lines in a very calm tone.

"If humans weren't afraid of Neptune Namor..."

"That's like not being in awe of the sea and already seeing the darkness. No matter what Ryan does..."

The crew seemed to want to talk, and even wanted to move something through Nelson, but Nelson's next words made everyone quiet down.

"Okay, Professor, didn't you tell these idiots that you have prepared a large bounty for us when we return?!"

"Well……"

The results of this sentence were really effective, and all the crew members who were still noisy were stunned.

Professor Stein was also stunned just now.

"Look, look, I told you that the professor is a gentle man, different from the rest of us."

"Isn't it embarrassing to say it so bluntly? Then let me help him."

"Because of the extreme circumstances of this voyage, after all... we all almost lost our Ryan brothers, didn't we?!"

"So the professor decided to pay for it out of his own pocket and subsidize us at least when we get back..."

Nelson raised two fingers and was about to say a number when Professor Stein took over. He nodded calmly and continued.

"At least two thousand US dollars per person. Didn't I say before that you spent a lot of money on this scientific examination?"

"Oh ho?!"

"2000?! That's great, it's extra income."

"I'm starting to look forward to it, Professor. I suddenly believe in you. This is great."

The style of painting changes.

Sometimes conflicts are actually quite easy to resolve. After all, why everyone came to participate in this voyage is not all because they dedicate themselves to the cause of science.

Whether on land or in the deep sea, everyone needs to eat.

"Look, Professor."

"I have said before that if you tell them the good news earlier, we will all be in harmony a long time ago."

Nelson let go of the crew's hand. Now he was not worried about a fight. The ship was now in a happy mood. This was really the best result.

…

"Thanks."

In the quiet equipment maintenance cabin, there were only Professor Stein and Nelson. The professor just said this.

"It's okay, after all I got a lot of money, didn't I?!"

"Hehe, just kidding, I must have a share of the promised bounty."

Nelson checked the equipment. When faced with these professional instruments, he was really professional.

"certainly."

"I will give you a big red envelope, after all, you really helped me."

Professor Stein was sitting on the pipe nearby. He didn't actually need to come in. After all, it wasn't his job to work here.

But his room...well, he didn't want to go back now. As for the outside...it was better to let the excited crew continue to enjoy themselves.

"It's nothing. In fact, if you said that the monster at that time is not here now, and that Neptune Namor has run away... maybe they can be more enthusiastic towards you."

Nelson did not look back. He was busy with the movements of his hands while talking to Professor Stein.

"..."

"You saw...I, I mean you lied to other people, you actually believed Ryan more?!"

Professor Stein raised his head and looked at Nelson in front of him. Except for Ryan, no one in the ship at that time... probably saw it.

"For a moment... I may have really seen something, but about the people under the sea, professor, do you really think it's a lie?!"

Nelson seemed to be thinking, he seemed a little hesitant.

"Absolutely."

This was an almost decisive voice, and Professor Stein said this without any hesitation.

"All right."

"Professor, you are a professional. You have solved countless mysteries about the truth and proven falsehoods of various legends."

"Actually, sometimes the scientific theories you mentioned sound stranger to us than the legends of the Undersea Kingdom."

"Maybe this is what we don't understand, so this time...for the sake of money, other things are not too important."

Nelson shrugged.

Professor Stein listened to him quietly, indeed... he had cracked various legends.

The mystery of the snowman in the Himalayas, the legendary devil’s priest, and so on!

For a while.

Professor Stein seemed to be a little blurry about the scene and the people in front of him.

It seemed to coincide with his last adventure in the snowy mountains.

Anna in the Himalayas, Nelson in the deep sea, no matter what the reason is, they always support themselves.

"You're right. I don't actually need to explain anything too much. Anyway...Nelson, I'm glad you can stand on my side."

"Today's friendship will be remembered by me forever."

at the same time.

Castro's voice rang out on the radio.

"Everyone, get ready!!!"

"Everyone should go to their respective positions. It is expected that we will enter the trench in half an hour."

Finally arrived.
Chapter completed!
