Chapter 850: Jellyfish Base
Southeast of the Chagos Archipelago, 3oo nautical miles. Ethereal.2.
The "Sea Giant" slowed down and lowered its voyage to a minimum. The Indian captain stared at the latest coordinates displayed on the GPS and reached for the phone receiver next to him.
"Mr. Singh?" He said in a cautious tone, "We have arrived at the designated area. ”
A few minutes later, Singh ran out of his bedroom onto the deck, where Long Yun and Fenrir were already on the ship.
By this time, it was night again, and the surrounding sky had completely darkened.
"Marta, the coordinates are correct, right?" Fan Jian put down the night vision device in his hand, he didn't have any trace on the sea, although of course he would not be wrong to know the coordinates, maybe the jellyfish base of Haines was somewhere under the sea at this time.
"Yes, this is it." Marta was sure.
Long Yun looked at the time, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and it was already the appointed time.
"Look!" Singh pointed to the sea in the distance and suddenly exclaimed, "There! Something seems to be there! ”
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and the dead sea level hidden in the black clouds suddenly boiled like boiling water, as if something was burning under the water, and the orange-red light made the sea water transparent, and became so conspicuous in the darkness.
"I'm afraid it's 'jellyfish'......" Zuo Chen stared at the spire that was exposed to the sea, it looked like the top of a conical barn, black and swarthy, and I don't know what material it was forged, but it was covered with strange patterns, and those lights shot out of the grooves of the picture.
Looking closely, Zuo Chen could see that those were some esoteric alchemy runes.
A minute later, the line at the junction of the sky and the sea began to brighten, almost like the sun shining on the sea, and the orange-red light became more and more intense. Then it floated like a palace in the sea, and a towering steel monster appeared in front of everyone, and it continued to rise!
It was like a pyramid of metal suddenly rising from the ground, but it was more brilliant than any mirage, and the sky and the sea were illuminated by the palace-like buildings in a dazzling orange-red.
Because the "monster" rose so fast, and its area was so large that all the sea water was squeezed into all directions, forming a large wave five or six meters high, and the giant oil tanker "Sea Giant" could also feel a shaking.
"This thing will be deformed!" Marta finally saw clearly.
"That's right, when it's in the ascending and descending phases, the shape of the entire base changes, which is conducive to speed." Fan Jian is no stranger to this thing, this is the "ark" recorded in the "Jade Record", the master Mailer once made this design, as his close disciples, Fan Jian and Zuo Chen both know the operating principle of the "jellyfish".
"It seems that this was the last secret base of Nazi Germany. Our master once told us about this monster, he designed it for refuge, similar to Noah's Ark recorded in the Bible, this thing is suitable for long-term underwater operation, like an unsinkable giant submarine, if the space compression technology in it at night can create a place comparable to the size of Germany, enough for hundreds of millions of people to live together. Zuo Chen said.
"Haynes seems to be a genius!" Marta said, "He could have perfected the jellyfish and set himself up as king in it, so why bother to restore the ancient kingdom of Atlantis?" ”
"Of course, the problem is not as simple as you think!" Zuo Chen said: "According to my master's statement, Hermes's idea of the ark construction in the "Jade Record" is not perfect, and the real construction technology is in the hands of Amon Ra, the supreme god of the Atlanteans, I estimate that Haines does not have the ability to build this base to the most perfect form, so he must find a breakthrough point, so where is the best breakthrough point?" ”
He looked at Marta with a blank face, "What do you say?" ”
Marta wrenched her hands in front of her chest, thinking for a moment, there was no answer, she was not an alchemist, and she couldn't explain such a complicated question at all.
"I'm not your colleague, it's useless to ask me."
"Actually, the ancient kingdom of Atlantis is an absolutely enlarged version of the ark, although Hermes does not know very much about how it was built, but he is very clear about the origin of the ancient kingdom of Atlantis." Fan Jian said: "The ancient country of Atlantis is actually built on the mothership of a starship, and it is itself a huge 'Noah's Ark', tens of thousands of years ago, the Atlanteans came here from their home planet, not because they emigrated or invaded, but because they themselves were interstellar refugees. Although the reasons for the departure of the Atlanteans from their homeland are not fully documented in the Jade Catalogue, information is revealed that they fled their homeland. So, if Haynes wants to perfect his own 'jellyfish' base, what's the best way to do it? ”
He paused for a moment, then slowed down: "That is, to find the ancient kingdom of Atlantis, find the ultimate ancient Atlantis rune technology on its body, use these to improve his base, and when it is perfected, maybe he will declare war on all countries in the world." The most suitable way to salvage the ancient country of Atlantis is to use the 'jellyfish' base, which can operate quietly like an oil exploration platform or a giant salvage ship hidden deep in the water. ”
"Look, that thing is starting to flatten!" Singh interrupted the conversation between Fan Jian and Marta, pointed to the 'jellyfish' base that had surfaced on the water, and shouted, "Now the area is getting bigger!" ”
Everyone quickly picked up the binoculars and looked into the distance.
The distance is very far, at least more than ten kilometers away, even if you use a large magnification telescope, there are still many things that you can't see clearly, but obviously the base has been floated, and from a distance, there is really a feeling of boundlessness, this thing is too big, like a small island. At this time, the spire was gradually falling, and the entire steel monster that had been in the shape of a mountain was becoming flattened.
As a result of the change from a conical shape to a flat shape, the area of the 'jellyfish' is constantly expanding, and the edge of the circle continues to extend, as if all the way towards the ship of the "Sea Giant".
"Be careful! Will this thing crash into our ship?! "Singh couldn't help but be a little worried, although the Sea Giant was large enough, it was nothing in front of the 'jellyfish', and mosquitoes were not comparable to cows.
"Reverse! Reversing! He turned his head and yelled at the captain who was driving upstairs.
Soon, it turned out that Singh's fears were unfounded, that the 'jellyfish' was a very sophisticated machine, and its thick edges extended to the bow of the "Sea Giant", no more, no less, just after it was touched, it stopped and did not change, as if it were a living creature equipped with sensors, and more like its name - "jellyfish".
The surface of the entire jellyfish base is dark metal, but it is uneven, and there are many shallow grooves on it, and the grooves are like flowing red molten iron, shining with orange-red light.
About a hundred meters away from the Caspian Giant, a hole was opened, like an exit from an tunnel.
Several dark shadows appear on the surface of the jellyfish.
