The boundless sea, even before doomsday, was a territory that was difficult for people to conquer. There were too many kinds of creatures in the deep sea, which were a mystery to humans.
After doomsday, the sea had become more violent, and conquering the sea was even more impractical because the mutant beasts in the sea were more powerful than those on land. If Jiang Liushi did not have an indestructible MCV, he would not dare to go deep into the sea.
On the way to the relic, Jiang Liushi also encountered many sea beasts. Among them was a large group of mutant sharks, each of which was more than ten meters long, comparable to the megalodon of the dinosaur era. Their steel teeth and biting force were even more powerful than the megalodon. Even the hard reef could be bitten to pieces.
When Jiang Liushi saw the group of sharks, they were following the missile boat. The sharks' dorsal fins were like black blades cutting the surface of the water. The dorsal fins represented the Death of the Sea. In the deep sea, even warships could be besieged by mutant sharks and sink.
Jiang Liushi hesitated for a while, but he gave up the idea of competing with them. Although the mutant nuclei were very attractive, the sea was not his home field. In case of an accident, he would have nowhere to run.
The missile boat reached a speed of 80 knots before it could get rid of the sharks. That was already the speed of a sports car on the highway.
Although it was not difficult to get rid of the sharks, Jiang Liushi was still shocked by their terrible speed and endurance. After all, they were behemoths weighing at least 20 tons!
"Ying, where are we?"
Jiang Liushi asked. After doomsday, GPS navigation had naturally become ineffective, and sailing in the ocean had become extremely dangerous. It was a matter of course to rely on a compass and compass to navigate the ocean. In ancient times, Zheng He could only sail slowly along the coastline. In the real era of great navigation, people relied on Star Traction, sextant, special nautical clocks and other means to determine latitude and longitude.
As for the sextant, Jiang Liushi did not have it. Even if he had it, he would not know how to use it. It required a series of star maps, formulas, and charts to compare.
Fortunately, Starseed's analysis ability was strong enough to enable the geomagnetic positioning system to determine the general direction by using the changes in the geomagnetic field.
Although it was not as accurate as GPS, it was enough to find an island.
"We are 100 nautical miles away," Ying said.
Obscurus said while looking at the sea map.
Jiang Liushi nodded. He was now deep in the Pacific Ocean. In the vast Pacific Ocean, there were countless islands, among which there were many uninhabited islands. Not to mention the ocean area, even near the most prosperous area of China, there were dozens of uninhabited islands.
There were even some islands that no one had ever set foot on in the long river of history.
Jiang Liushi's target island was originally located in a remote location, but because of the reefs, it avoided all routes. It was a barren land that human civilization could not reach.
"The reef area is just ahead. The radar has already detected it." In the form of the MCV, Ying was the driver, but in the form of the missile boat, she was the helmsman.
"Yes, try your best to avoid them."
Jiang Liushi had already seen the outline of the island, which seemed to be a few square kilometers. There was a hill on the island, which was covered with green vegetation.
Jiang Liushi had learned from Shen Kui that half a century ago, the expedition team had discovered the ruins on this nameless hill.
The hill's body had been reinforced, and its belly had been completely hollowed out. Even the ground had been dug out about a kilometer deep.
If the expedition team's discovery was announced, it would definitely be shocking news.
However, because the Cold War had not yet ended, the existence of the ruins was strictly kept secret. Later, with the progress of the research, more and more information was discovered. Because it was too shocking, the news of the ruins' existence was finally completely blocked.
At that time, the world's most powerful people shared the secrets of the ruins. They established an organization to study the ruins, which was the predecessor of Genesis.
Later, the outbreak of doomsday was also related to the ruins. However, Genesis had used various channels to disclose the news only half a month before the outbreak. Unfortunately, half a month was too short, and it was too late to take any action. At that time, some powerful people had urgently requisitioned a large number of new buildings and urgently built a safety zone.
That was how the earliest Shen Hai Safety Zone was built.
"Let's go ashore." Ying controlled the missile boat and carefully docked next to an island reef.
Ran Xiyu had already activated her spiritual field to explore everything on the island. The island was only a few square kilometers in size, so Ran Xiyu's spiritual field could cover more than half of it.
"It seems that … there are no powerful mutant beasts. It should be said that there are no mutant beasts at all," Ran Xiyu said doubtfully.
Ran Xiyu was puzzled. In her spiritual field, she could see birds, crabs, and frogs with colorful feathers on the island. Because the island was too small, there were no beasts. The largest animal was just a few miniature wild boars. It looked very peaceful.
"This island can be said to be the source of doomsday. Now, all the people and animals in the world are involved in this catastrophe, but this island is quiet and has avoided the outbreak of the catastrophe. It's really ironic," Jiang Liushi said while shaking his head.
At that moment, the missile boat had transformed into his MCV and drove all the way to the island.
There were no roads on the island, so the MCV relied on its powerful performance to drive all the way to the foot of the mountain.
"Xiyu, is there anyone on the island?" asked Jiang Liushi.
Although this was the site of the ruins, it was unlikely that there would be people here. According to Shen Kui, after the ruins were discovered, all the valuable items were taken away, and the place was sealed. The headquarters of Genesis couldn't be located in such a desolate place.
After doomsday, due to the lack of GPS positioning systems, it was almost impossible for ships and helicopters to come here.
"I can't detect anyone, but Brother Jiang, don't take it lightly. If someone's mental power is stronger than mine, they can easily avoid my detection," said Ran Xiyu.
"I know." Jiang Liushi nodded. "Found it! It's here! It's the entrance of the ruins that Shen Kui mentioned!"
Jiang Liushi pointed at a boulder covered with moss.
