The Survival of the Deep Sea: Starting Submarines
chapter 11's
Boundless darkness enveloped Meng Lei like ink.
In the empty and large underwater cave, Meng Lei held a knife in one hand and a spear in the other, slowly fumbling forward in the darkness.
The submarine floodlights behind him gradually dimmed as they went deeper in.
Everything around seemed to have turned into nothingness, blurred, and it was impossible to see the real and the real, which made people feel extremely disturbed.
In this deadly and dark environment, Meng Lei was extremely careful whenever she swam, and did not dare to be off guard.
And, in the process of gradual deepening.
Every now and then, Meng Lei would use the diving knife in her hand to carve a mark on the next stone wall.
In fact, the environment inside the cave was too complicated, with many branches and holes.
It's easy to get lost if you're not careful.
If you get lost in such a place, there is no doubt that there is no possibility of survival at all.
Once the oxygen runs out, there's only one dead end.
In addition, although the sonar detection system does not detect any danger in the hole.
But on the surrounding stone walls, in the hole that led nowhere, Meng Lei always felt something writhing in the darkness, as if it would attack him at any moment.
Even if it was just his imagination, it made him very uneasy.
That cold tense feeling was bothering his nerves the entire time.
Before he realized it, Meng Lei's breathing became fast, and he subconsciously held the spear in his hand even tighter.
Fortunately, along the way, there was no danger.
From time to time, some strange-looking deep-sea fish wandered past Meng Lei's eyes, looking at him curiously.
For this "dinner" within range, Meng Lei did not choose to do so.
As a result, he was not confident enough to successfully catch the opponent before he fled.
Second, he did not want to create any additional problems in this frightening environment.
If some wounds bleed during the fishing process, then the smell of blood can easily attract bad things.
At that time, do not let the dinner go unresolved, but distract yourself, it will not be worth the loss.
A few minutes later, according to the three-dimensional virtual topographic map in memory, Meng Lei turned a corner of the road.
The overhead lighting clearly reflected that in the cave passage in front of him, a large pile of red ore stood quietly in a corner.
"found it!"
Meng Lei was overjoyed, she hurriedly swung her legs, and swam towards the pile of ores at high speed.
The system prompt is correct.
The number of copper mines in this pile was indeed quite a lot, and it could be seen from its size alone.
An iron mine the size of a human head could mine three units of iron, and this copper mine, which was half human in height, was estimated to have at least ten units of output!
"This time, there is not only enough material for the freshwater extractor, but also repair material for the gravity ball. It was worth the underwater trip!"
Meng Lei was overjoyed, and immediately took out a handheld mining tool, approached the pile of copper mines, and became frenzied.
[System request: Get copper ore*1]
[System request: Get copper ore*1]
[System request: Get copper ore*1]
…
The sharp and melodious system prompt sound constantly reverberated in my mind.
The fist-sized piece of copper ore was separated from the pile of ore, and Meng Lei stuffed it into his diving suit backpack.
At this moment, Meng Lei, who was concentrating on ore mining, did not find it at all.
About seven or eight meters behind him, in an extremely dark underwater cave, a point of yellow light suddenly lit up dimly.
The light is very dim and fuzzy.
Like a firefly that suddenly appeared in the darkness of the night, graceful and agile.
It was like the eyes of an unknown, strange and imposing ferocious beast.
The small light flashed very suddenly, without warning, and the entire image of his body could not be clearly seen in the dark environment.
Like a deep sea ghost, he was silent.
Meng Lei, who was working hard in front of him, slowly left.
Meng Lei did not notice it at all.
At this time, the copper mine mining work will be over soon.
The pile of copper ore, which was half the height of a person, was emptied in a short period of time, leaving only twenty centimeters in size.
Up until now, this pile of ores had given Meng Lei 11 units of copper ore, occupying three spaces in the backpack.
When the remaining ores were mined, Meng Lei's harvest this time would probably have at least fifteen copper mine units.
"I made a lot of money this time!"
At this moment, Meng Lei was in a very happy mood.
Little did he know that in the darkness behind him, there was an inexplicable crisis slowly approaching him.
At a certain moment, when the last piece of copper ore the size of a fist was separated from the stone wall, Meng Lei carried it into her pocket.
The ore piles hidden in this deep sea cave had finally been mined.
Meng Lei let out a long sigh with a smile on her face.
He hung the mining tool in his hand back on his waist, and was about to turn around and leave.
From the corner of his eyes, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the darkness beside him, and there seemed to be something strange.
The feeling at that moment was extremely frightening, leaving Meng Lei's scalp numb.
He was surprised and suddenly looked.
As his body spun, the lights on the diving suit hood also splashed light into the darkness beside him.
I saw a strange-looking fish, just less than two meters away from Meng Lei, staring at him with large pale eyes.
The large mouth full of fangs opened and closed slightly, and under the reflection of the light, it gave off a dark light.
And on top of his head, long fleshy spines bent between his eyes, with an unknown round organ at the tip, exuding a hint of luster in dimness.
Overall, the shape is very scary.
"Fuck up!"
Meng Lei was shocked and could not help but shiver.
The next moment, boundless coldness surged into his heart, and this sudden and frightening sight frightened him again and again.
"What the hell is this, when did you come here ?!"
Cold sweat instantly soaked his back, Meng Lei's heart pounded, and his soul was almost terrified.
In fact, this strange fish appeared too suddenly, and he had no psychological preparation at all.
Moreover, its strange shape was like a monster coming out of a horror book, anyone who saw it first would feel a tingling sensation on the scalp!
At this moment, the strange fish that originally wanted to sneak attacked Meng Lei from behind, seeing that its prey had noticed it, and was no longer hiding.
In the darkness, a bloody mouth suddenly opened, and sharp fangs flickered, biting Meng Lei ferociously.
