Chapter 465: Sea water, fishy smell, complete madness in the outpost!(1/3)
In the deep sea, everything is prosperous and everything is prosperous.
In this closed space that does not belong to humans, all bad things will be magnified.
If these problems cannot be effectively solved, the consequences will be difficult to bear.
Plato, in the infirmary.
"You are a veteran of the deep sea. You should understand these principles. Just like what the legend says...this is how shipwrecks often happen."
Dr. Singer packed up the medical examination equipment and took off some of the connecting wires originally attached to Ryan's body.
Ryan's condition has improved, or in other words, apart from the mental pressure, the deep diving accident did not affect his health too much.
Some simple bandages helped his body improve, but... the anger in his heart was not so easy to eliminate.
"I don't mean to provoke doctor, but...do I look like I'm really crazy?!"
"Obviously Stein is crazy!!"
Ryan covered his head, which was wrapped in gauze, but the pain came from the depths of his mind. He was convinced that he saw an extremely real monster.
And he was almost killed, or rather... devoured, which was simply terrifying.
"Did you just have a vivid dream, or... environment?!"
"After all, this is a pressurized and oxygenated environment."
"It's easy for people to have dreams that they have never had before. Your mental pressure is too great."
Dr. Singer is equally professional, and he also has a scientific explanation plan for Ryan's situation.
"..."
Ryan was silent.
He is a sailor, a "deep-sea man" who deals with seawater all year round. Neither Professor Stein nor Dr. Singer can speak to him.
He even didn't even know the legend about the people under the sea very clearly, but...if the horned undersea monster was really the pet of Neptune Namor, then...
Ryan seemed to calm down, but the uneasiness in his heart spread, and he felt that everything on the submarine was going bad.
Dr. Singer just shook his head.
"You heard the broadcast just now. We are about to enter the outpost. It's over anyway."
"Well... don't think about those bad things, think about something good, even if it's just for the two thousand subsidy."
At this point, even Dr. Singer laughed. The professor's subsidy was not a small amount of money, and such additional gains would make everyone happy.
"All right."
"If this bad thing can end here, then...I won't say anything more."
Still the same sentence.
Even Ryan has to live. After all, he is a human being living on land, but his profession requires him to be a "deep-sea man" and not a true undersea man.
No matter what the legend of Neptune Namor was like... at least at this moment, Ryan was still moved in his heart.
This is the charm of money!
"As long as that bastard gives you money, I'll accept it!!"
…
The Mariana Trench outpost, as the last stop of human exploration, is even lower than the abyssal plain.
At this moment.
What lies before you is an awe-inspiring 36,000 feet below sea level.
This is the last line of warning to enter deeper and unknown "dark waters".
It can be said that once we cross this place and the final supply is achieved, we will be completely far away from human civilization.
"It's finally here."
"This may be the last diary I write. I hope the guys on the ship can stay calm, or...let me calm down."
Professor Stein is making final preparations for landing. The news just came from Castro that they still have half an hour to prepare.
30 minutes flows very quickly. It usually seems too long in the deep sea environment, but now it becomes a race against time again.
Snap!!
After confirming that the girl named Nagato Yuki was still reading quietly in the room, she seemed not to be disturbed by the broadcast on the ship.
Professor Stein ran to the assembly room, and Nelson was waiting for him at the door. It could be seen that the professor was the last one to fall.
"Too slow, Professor, I thought you would be the most anxious one."
Nelson said, looking behind Stein, and then continued with a strange expression.
"Huh?!"
"Just lock that girl in the room?!"
"This is a rare deep sea experience, why don't we let her see our outpost?!"
Nelson thought that the professor had made a trip and would bring the girl with him, but now only Stein came.
This made the black guy scratch his head and really didn't know what to say.
"Hey!"
"We are not a tourist group. After a little supply, we should go back."
"The communication on land has not been returned at all. Who knows what happened to New York Harbor? Those big guys are always like this... Her family must be very anxious."
What to visit?!
This was completely unnecessary. Professor Stein, who fully understood what was going on, avoided Nelson as he spoke.
In order to prevent other accidents, after returning from the previous adventurous deep dive, everyone at that time had their eyes on Ryan.
Professor Stein allowed Nagato Yuki to read in his room on the grounds of protection.
He himself did not approach this magical girl, and he did not even tell the other crew members, including Nelson, who had been with him, even Nagato Yuki's name.
Nothing much to say.
Nagato Yuki and them are not from the same world at all. They are extraordinary beings under the sea. All these "lies" will end after returning home.
So be it.
There was no need to take the girl to see anything, she didn't mention it, and Professor Stein couldn't take the initiative to say it.
"Hurry up."
"I've been suffocating in this small room for so long. I need to move to a larger place to get some fresh air."
…
"Everyone is ready."
"Check our respective locations again, we are about to reach the connection point..."
Castro's professional command, as a real "captain", his voice continued to be heard from the radio.
"Hey Ryan, glad you're awake."
"Shut up... I don't want to see you now. Don't talk to me again before I can't bear it anymore."
Professor Stein spoke to the bandaged Lane as if nothing was wrong, and Lane responded to him in a "good mood."
Everything seemed to be back to before. Although the overall atmosphere was a little troublesome, it seemed that all the bad things were gone.
very good.
The Trench Outpost is in sight, so far so good.
"Click!!"
"Click!!"
The retracting lever is right next to it, the observation mirror shrinks up and down, and the sound of the machine turning is clear and general in this lesson.
And at the same time.
Castro's dull voice sounded again.
"Everyone, something seems to be wrong."
This sentence was the last thing Professor Stein wanted to hear now, and his brows frowned subconsciously.
"Stop joking?!"
"Mr. Captain, we're already here, aren't we?!"
The professor said to Castro on the phone channel.
"That's right, but I can't get a radio response from the outpost for half an hour. Maybe it's a technical failure."
Ever since Castro issued the landing reminder before, he had already called for communication in the captain's cabin as usual.
To be continued...
