"Reporting, general … this is …"
This was the deep sea. While the pope was doing all sorts of things, the submarines that were chasing after the deep sea behemoth also discovered some strange … situation.
Now, there were five submarines that had dived to the deepest part of the trench. They did not see the behemoth but they saw the strange scenery on the seabed at the bottom of the trench.
The seabed had burst open here.
A large amount of glowing material, like lava gushing out from the mouth of a volcano, slowly spread around the traces of the explosion …
An underwater volcano eruption was a phenomenon that most of the Void people knew about, but this was not a volcano, what erupted was not lava but a kind of colorful, sticky liquid that looked like paste.
This was what the Void people saw in the submarines. They did not know what it was but no one tried to go out to collect some 'samples'.
Even if they could use remote control to make the collection process safe, no one knew what would happen after they collected it.
Even though they did not know what this material was, the captain of the submarines knew where this place was. Therefore, in his report to the general, he said, "This is a deep sea abandoned site, general."
"Abandoned site … is the place where the reactor waste is placed?" The general's voice was filled with confusion, "Why is it here? And I don't know about it? "
"Because this place has not been made public, I just happened to know about it …" The captain said, "A lot of waste has been placed here …"
Reactor waste, after the Void people researched the related technology, they had a lot of this kind of thing, these things were a huge threat to all the Void people.
The Voidfolk had recently started using technology that did not produce waste. However, there was too much waste left behind in the past, so they needed to bury things here and there. They were usually buried very deep underground, or sealed in special jars and thrown into the deep sea.
Later, the Void people dug up most of the waste and launched it into the void but there was still a considerable amount of waste left at the place where it was originally placed and had not been dealt with.
There was a place where the waste was placed that had not been dealt with. It was this place.
"This trench has always been thought to be a place that has not been explored but in reality, that is not the case …" The captain said to the general, "In the past, there was a company that specialized in dealing with waste, they threw their waste at this place … and very few people know about this …"
"Then why is it in such a strange situation now?" The general could see what the submarines saw from afar, "Why is there a lot of glowing … liquid there?"
"I don't know either, General. Although the company's approach was not very good, their safety was also very guaranteed at the beginning. Logically speaking, there should not be any problems even if these jars were left there for thousands of years … Let alone such an abnormal thing. "The captain said," Do you want to test it? "
"Don't worry about these things for now." The general didn't ask about the relationship between the captain and the company. Instead, he said directly, "The mission now is to hunt down the giant beast. You guys stay there. The other troops should explore other areas. The Giant Beasts may appear at any time. Raise your guard! "
"Yes!"
Under the general's orders, the five submarines stopped here and guarded this position.
However, as time passed, they discovered a new anomaly — the glowing 'liquid' gushing out of the cracks on the seabed.
It was like a carpet that could spread on its own, growing bigger and bigger on the seabed. The captain had no choice but to contact the general again.
Seeing such an anomaly, the general also felt that he could not ignore it. Therefore, he asked these submarines to take some samples for testing.
Then, the captain mobilized a remote-controlled small machine for collection and testing.
This machine was like a cube. It had two mechanical arms. With the propelling force of the engine behind it, it quickly swam to the glowing object spreading on the seabed.
Contact, collection, return, the machine's movements were very fast … At the same time, it proved that this substance was not lava, but … What was it?
The collected material was stored in a sealed container. When the machine returned to the ship, it began to collect the material. The captain immediately ordered to move it to the laboratory to start testing.
There were some small laboratories inside these submarines. Some of the more 'knowledgeable' people were in charge of them.
Now, this group of people had gathered in the laboratory. One of them was holding a small sealed bottle in his hand. He looked at the thing in the bottle with a strange emotion.
When he turned the bottle, the glowing substance inside would slowly slide to the other side like oil. This could prove that it was a liquid.
But when this bottle was tested by the Voidman with microscopic detection tools, it was found that this was not a simple liquid. It was mixed with a large number of … microorganisms.
And these microorganisms … were very similar to plague fungi.
They secreted a layer of grease-like substance to wrap themselves inside, so it looked like an oily liquid from the outside. At the same time, they were glowing inside.
But why would the fungi that were most afraid of seawater appear in the depths of the ocean?
It was not strange that the giant beast's skin was resistant to seawater, but these fungi … They seemed to be using oil to protect themselves.
However, when the captain tried to soak these fungi in seawater, he discovered a shocking fact …
These fungi would not die in seawater … They did not rely on oil to protect themselves.
This was a type of fungus that could resist seawater!
After discovering this information, the captain immediately reported it to the general.
The general was extremely surprised by this situation, but he quickly issued an order … This place must be completely destroyed.
This new fungus could not be allowed to spread.
However, the captain thought that there was no need to rush. They could conduct more tests before making a decision …
After conducting other tests, the general was relieved to hear the new information. It seemed that this type of fungus lived in the sea. They did not have the extremely strong infectivity of other species, and at the same time, their growth rate was not fast. It was just that they did not know how the fungi that spread on the seabed obtained food.
However, their oil could provide shelter for other fungi that were afraid of seawater. This might be their main purpose.
And as long as they understood, it was very easy to solve them.
