Unlike traditional submarines, the Abyss Dragon could lift or sail underwater with the help of four propulsion shafts.
It produced very little noise underwater, which could basically be covered by the background noise of the ocean. Therefore, it would not cause damage to the marine environment, nor would it drive away marine life. It allowed the people inside the boat to have closer contact with the marine life outside the boat.
This helped them. Although the yacht hit the blue whale, the blue whale's body was full of fat and thick skin. In addition, it was preparing to surface, and its body hit the water, creating a current.
There was no sound, and it did not feel much pain. In this case, it did not notice that there was something unusual around it, and it was still slowly floating up.
The Abyss Dragon had an automatic balance design, and the yacht quickly regained its balance after a shake in the water. The pilot steered the boat away from the blue whale and sailed away.
At this time, Li Du looked back. He could see the blue whale in its entirety from a distance, which shocked him even more!
As the yacht swam in the water, Li Du and the others found another blue whale.
Compared to the two giants in front and behind, this blue whale was much smaller, about the same length as the Abyss Dragon.
It swam between the two big blue whales, wagging its tail easily and floating up and down in the sea, looking very energetic.
Li Du understood that they had encountered a family of whales. There should be a female whale in front, a male whale in the back, and a young whale in the middle being protected.
The yacht chased the family of whales in the sea, and Li Du and Sophie were able to get close to the blue whale to observe it.
In addition to the blue whale, they also encountered a southern right whale.
Compared to the huge blue whale, the southern right whale was smaller, but it was still an astonishing 15 or 16 meters long, and looked much larger than the Abyss Dragon.
This whale was a baleen whale with a highly curved bow and black baleen on the side of its mouth. As it swam in the water, the baleen was more than two meters long.
The blue whale was large and calm, and the southern right whale was much more active. The whale that Li Du and the others encountered would surface from time to time.
The water it spewed was not straight up and down, but in a strange V-shape. If one did not see it from the front, it would be easy to mistake that there were two water columns spewing out of the water.
When the blue whale discovered the Abyssal Dragon, it only glanced at it before continuing to swim on its own.
The Southern Right Whale wrapped itself around the Abyss Dragon, scaring the pilot into speeding up to get rid of it. He was afraid that the whale would hit the yacht. With the strength of the Southern Right Whale, the yacht could be disintegrated in just a few hits.
During this time, the pilot also comforted Li Du and Sophie through the intercom. "Don't worry, the ship is equipped with a rapid floating device. If it is attacked or its power fails, it will automatically float to the surface."
Li Du's response was, "Bro, let's run faster."
In order to avoid the Southern Right Whale's entanglement, the Abyss Dragon floated to the surface of the sea.
As a result, the whale also floated to the surface of the water. Then, it raised its head, and its huge tail fin, which was like the wings of an airplane, beat the water, and almost jumped out of the water!
The Southern Right Whale jumped out of the water and fell back down with a muffled thud.
Li Du was stunned. Whales were indeed the largest animals in nature today. Their every move was amazing. The way they jumped out of the water was majestic, graceful, and full of power!
After swimming in the sea for nearly a day, they had lunch at the pier restaurant at noon. After refueling, they returned to the sea in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, they did not go whale watching again, but began a deep dive for ocean exploration.
At first, Li Du was worried that there was a problem with the yacht and did not dare to dive too deep. After a morning of contact, he found that the yacht was very reliable. Even if it collided with whales many times, there was no problem.
With this, he was confident. In the afternoon, he discussed with the pilot and began to dive.
At the deepest point, they dived more than 100 meters underwater. At this depth, the ocean was as dark as ink. The yacht turned on the front and rear lights to illuminate the bottom of the sea.
Some fish and shrimp were attracted to light. When they saw the light of the yacht, they swam over and appeared in the beam of light. Li Du and Sophie were amazed.
The sea outside Sydney was the South Pacific Ocean. Because of the harsh natural environment, there had been many shipwrecks in history, and many ships had sunk in this area.
The pilot knew the coordinates of a shipwreck. He used the navigator to locate the shipwreck and let Li Du and Sophie take a tour around the shipwreck.
When they finally returned to the hotel, it was already seven o'clock.
Li Du was about to ask Cole if he had any plans for the evening, but Steve came again and invited him to have dinner and then swim.
Li Du readily agreed. He took Sophie, the four little ones, Steve and Elson together, and the four little ones went to the hotel restaurant.
Pets were not allowed in the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel. Li Du and Sophie had never taken Ah Meow and the others to eat here, but Steve could.
Elson negotiated with the lobby manager in a low voice, and then the lobby manager smiled and agreed to let Ah Meow and the others into the restaurant and opened a private room for them.
When they walked to the private room, they bumped into Bradley. Seeing the four of them talking and laughing together, Bradley came over to say hello and recommend a few dishes to them.
Li Du knew that he wanted to please Steve, so he did not say anything. Bradley said to him, "Li, I wanted to know more about Lightning Ridge. Is it convenient for you to have dinner together? My treat. "
Although he said that, Li Du knew that he wanted to invite Steve and wanted to take the opportunity to have dinner with Steve.
He also knew that Steve was certainly not interested in him, so he shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it later. I'm sorry, but we have something to talk about tonight."
Bradley did not give up and said, "Why don't you talk about it first, and I'll come over when the time is right?"
Li Du said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Bolton. Why don't we have dinner together tomorrow?"
Li Du said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Bolton. Why don't we have dinner together tomorrow?"
Li Du entered the private room and ordered, and then Steve asked them about their schedule for the day.
It was a very ordinary opening remark. After the conversation started, Steve asked, "Li, I heard that you are collecting black opal in Australia?"
Li Du nodded and said, "Yes, I have a mine in Lightning Ridge. I will stay there and look for it."
Steve pondered for a moment and asked, "Can you take me with you? I also want to dig for gems."
