As a deep-sea creature, Nangong Wuyue's perception in the water was greatly enhanced. As the team approached the bottom of the lake, she sensed something strange in her surroundings. There was an unnatural magnetic field around her, and it made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
Hao Ren did not feel anything, but he noticed that Lil Pea, who was swimming beside him, was acting a little strange: the little one was swimming in a zigzag line, as if she was drunk. However, she was clearly sober. The little one was confused as she swam and kept adjusting her swimming posture. After a long while, she finally straightened her body and quickly stuck to Hao Ren's arm. She looked slightly scared: she felt that this place was weird and instinctively sought protection.
"She may have the geomagnetic navigation talent, the magnetic field here has a big impact on her," Nangong Wuyue explained as she saw Lil Pea's strange behavior and reassured Hao Ren. "It's okay, this level of magnetic field won't cause any physiological damage. At most, some deep-sea creatures will lose their sense of direction. Everyone be careful, there may be something up ahead. It doesn't look like a natural formation. "
Hao Ren nodded. After making sure that his Steel Membrane Shield was full, he took the lead and swam behind Nangong Wuyue. Y'zaks held two balls of demonic fire in his hands and followed. Vivian tried to summon her bats but found that bats could not swim, so she summoned a blood cloud for emergencies. Lily looked at Vivian as she swam, leaving a trail of blood behind her. Without thinking, she blurted out, "Your menstrual flow is really..."
Both of them almost got into a fight in the water.
The blurry shadow in front of them was getting clearer. Hao Ren estimated that he was close to the center of the lake. He widened his eyes and kept descending. Finally, he saw the black bottom of the lake at the end of his red vision.
There was nothing unusual in this area. The bottom of the Blood Lake was solid. At least this area was not mud, but black sand and some strange, rectangular stones that had been compressed by the water pressure. Y 'zaks created a few more Inextinguishable Flames around the team to expand their field of vision. Hao Ren saw the black bottom of the lake rising slightly to form a slope in front of him: further ahead should be the base of the island.
"There's a burnt smell in the water." Lily frowned. "There's also a strange sour smell."
Nangong Wuyue used her serpent tail to pick up a long piece of stone from the bottom of the lake. She looked at it curiously. "This thing looks man-made... Look, one side of it is very smooth, as if it has been polished with something."
These long stone shards of various sizes were scattered all over the bottom of the lake, and the further they went, the more shards there were. It was as if something had exploded in the middle of the lake, throwing these shards out. The first thing that came to Hao Ren's mind was the fire at the bottom of the lake on the night the Orb disappeared two months ago. But he quickly ruled out this possibility: the stone shards seemed to have been there for a long time. There were no signs of fresh impact around them, and some of the stone shards were covered with a thick layer of light-averse aquatic creatures. They must have been lying at the bottom of the lake for a long time.
Hao Ren took the stone shards from Nangong Wuyue and threw them into the Dimensional Pocket. He had collected a lot of things during his days of wandering in this world. Basically, he would throw a few samples of anything that might be valuable into the Dimensional Pocket. "Take it back. Study it when you have time."
The siren nodded. Her long serpent tail was as agile as her arms as she picked up some good looking stone shards. When she passed them to Hao Ren, she muttered, "So I think it's better to turn into a giant squid..."
Hao Ren glared at Nangong Wuyue with Lil Pea in his arms. "She's been dragging your tail for a long time even when you turned into a serpent. This little one is at the critical stage of establishing a normal worldview. Don't give her strange knowledge, okay?"
Nangong Wuyue's mouth twitched. She turned her head and continued to swim forward.
The team continued to search for a while and finally found something suspicious on the rocky beach at the bottom of the lake.
Large pieces of black gravel were rolled and thrown out, revealing the fresh deep water silt underneath. Layers of huge ravines stretched across his field of vision. These were the traces left by the shockwaves. It seemed that there really was a big explosion in front of him, and it happened not long ago.
This time, even without Lily's reminder, Hao Ren could smell a strange smell in the lake. Although Nangong Wuyue had used her talent to "avoid water", but for the convenience of exploration, they could still smell the smell in the lake. Lil Pea wrinkled her nose uncomfortably. She rubbed her little face on Hao Ren's sleeve and made a series of unhappy grunts. Seeing this, Nangong Wuyue could only create a pure water ball for the little one to swim in.
"There's some strange debris floating in the water." Vivian frowned uncomfortably. The strange smell made her very uncomfortable. She looked up and saw that the sloping bottom of the lake had formed a clear conical shape. This was a sign that they were about to reach the island in the middle of the lake. She looked around and suddenly saw an incongruous black shadow on the side of the conical island from the corner of her eye. "Over there! There's a big guy! "
The team quickly swam over. The moment they went around the conical island, they were all stunned.
Hao Ren subconsciously muttered to himself, "... This is f * cking interesting!"
At the bottom of the black lake that was sloping upwards, a gigantic object that was out of place in the surrounding environment was inserted into the mud. The exposed part of it was two to three hundred meters long, glowing with a greenish-gray cold metallic luster. Its shape was roughly in the shape of a long cylinder, and there were several intricate and complicated metal protrusions at its tail, as well as six pairs of strange structures that looked like engines. On the side facing them, they could see a horrifying crack. A large part of the armor belt seemed to have been directly erased by something, gouging out dozens of meters, leaving a long and narrow crack, revealing the broken metal structure inside. This should be a fatal wound.
Shockwave marks could be seen around the behemoth. There were also scattered metal fragments and balls of strange, insoluble gelatinous substances that glowed with a dirty green light. These things should have been ejected from the horrifying fissure.
The strange smell came from the dirty green jelly, and the surrounding strange magnetic field was no doubt from the wreckage that crashed here. There must be something operating in its body.
"Wow!" Lily was shocked by the scene in front of her. She quickly scurried to the side of the wreckage to take a look, then ran back in shock. "What is this?!"
"It should be a spaceship," Hao Ren said, nodding. "I have seen it in the study materials. Although it looks different from the textbooks, the general structure is the classic starship design."
Vivian slowly swam over. "In any case, it's definitely not from this world. Let's go and take a look. "
Everyone came to the wreckage. Everyone was careful, afraid that the thing would explode again or suddenly release some poisonous substances. Speaking of which, the green jelly looked like it was poisonous. The thing had been lying at the bottom of the lake for two months. Now that the heat had subsided, it was as cold as a corpse. Hao Ren looked inside the crack, which was tens of meters long, and found that the interior was spacious. It seemed to be a passage that was close to the outer shell.
However, there were many crisscrossing metal stubble and pipes in the crack. They were like a spider web, blocking everyone's way, and the spaceship's outer shell was in a state of disconnection. Vivian saw the situation and slapped Lily. "Doggie, clear the way."
"Why me?"
"Oh, because you are very powerful."
"Okay, okay." Lily immediately rushed to the crack excitedly. "Leave it to me!"
Hao Ren looked at Vivian with a strange expression. "You are getting to know her better."
Lily swam toward the crack while wielding her Frostfire Claws. The two magical claws could be used in the water as usual. On Lily's left was a stream of ice, and on her right was a stream of bubbles. She looked like she was dragging two ribbons. It was not convenient to swim with the claws. She quickly came up with an idea. Her tail moved like a propeller, and she swam faster than she dog-paddled!
Hao Ren watched for a long time, but he did not understand how she could make her tail move like that.
Vivian was speechless for a while. Finally, she sighed. "It seems that I have learned something from the submarine fight..."
