Chapter 172 Wreck
As it goes deeper and deeper, the entire dome is filled with more and more light, and various glowing birds are hovering above the ship. These birds are not big, but they are in groups, like a large group of moving, glowing birds.
of clouds.
As the ship continued to advance, the entire cave became wider and wider, and there were many more banks in the surrounding underground rivers. Some luminous plants were growing on the banks, spreading up like water plants and leaving the river bottom.
Some bushes are also growing in these places. The bushes several meters high are also shining brightly, but they are only leaf veins or less, and they look like only tiny lines.
There are still some small animals moving on the river bank, but there are no larger animals. Preliminary estimation is that the river bank will not increase as you go inside, but will only get smaller and smaller.
Sure enough, the winding river bank suddenly disappeared after a bend, and was replaced by an underground cave with steep walls, or an underground dark lake.
"No way?"
"Of course!"
Mo Sheng smiled and pointed at the ship's exploration system. Under the underground lake, a cave with no end was revealed.
"Attention, we will start diving immediately!"
As he spoke, the wooden planks that had been raised around the entire ship changed again, a thin film appeared on it, and the wooden planks on both sides once again extended toward the middle until they were twisted together.
As for the entire ship, except for a huge crystal window directly in front, there are only a few small portholes on the sides.
"Start diving!"
The entire hull shook slightly, and the scenery in front began to rise. A layer of water curtain slowly submerged the ship from below, and the entire ship began to be underwater.
The ability to submerge for a short time under thirty meters, in fact, the actual depth of the entire underground cave has exceeded this level. Mo Sheng had to activate the defensive formation to temporarily act as a pressure-resistant barrier for the hull. The entire hull withstood the high-speed consumption of spiritual stones.
go ahead.
Countless bubbles rolled up behind the ship, surrounded by countless underwater luminous plants, and more and more schools of fish appeared in front of them. Instead of getting narrower and narrower as Mo Sheng and the others moved forward, the entire underground river became increasingly narrower.
It is wide, and the whole thing is like a layer of water that separates the upper and lower parts of the ground.
Unfortunately, this situation did not last long. Huge crystal pillars appeared, supporting up and down diagonally. At first, they were only a few meters in diameter. They looked like lines connecting up and down, and most of them did not even go up and down.
But these crystals are becoming more and more numerous and thicker, just like the marrow material in bones, compressing the ship's channel more and more.
Fortunately, the gaps between these crystals are still large enough, and the underground river is still hundreds of meters apart, and you can't see how far away the two sides are.
The crystals are intertwined and occupy a lot of space, but there are still holes of ten or twenty meters in diameter that are enough for ships to pass through.
Soon, the luminous flora in the underground disappeared, and the surrounding fish gradually disappeared. The only thing left was the reflective crystal pillars that were not pure and basically worthless.
The ship was now completely in a dark, deep and sealed seabed. This ship was not a submarine after all. If he couldn't find a way to surface in another half hour, Mo Sheng would have to use cheating methods.
Fortunately, ten minutes later, in addition to the light on Mo Sheng's ship, a trace of light appeared in the distance through the crystal.
"there!"
Xu Zhiqing tugged at the corner of Mo Sheng's clothes, pointed in the distance and shouted.
"Saw it!"
Turning the rudder, accelerating, a long underwater vortex was pulled out behind him, and the ship began to move forward at great speed.
Among the layers of crystals intertwined, a bright light in front of the ship became more and more obvious, and soon, a hole hundreds of meters in size appeared in front of the ship.
Surfaced, dispersed the formation, and the overburdened diving device was able to rest.
The light above became brighter and brighter, and finally, with a burst of sound rushing out of the water, the entire ship surfaced, and this place was no longer on the coast.
The voyage took nearly half an hour. Although it was not moving at full speed, with the speed of the Dream Chaser and the depth of the river at the beginning, it had entered at least a distance of more than 300 kilometers from the coast.
At this time, the place where the Dream Chaser is located is a large lake in a dense forest!
The ship gradually approached the shore, and from a distance, some huge crystal pillars could be seen standing intertwined among the mountains and forests, intersecting with the hills, reflecting the almost dusk sunlight.
On the shore, the ship slowly came to a stop. Below it was the lake shore less than a hundred meters away from the entrance of the underground lake. It was completely composed of rocks and it was almost impossible to anchor. Mo Sheng had to manually carry the anchor and prepare to disembark.
"Let's go, everyone! The treasure is ahead!"
"Mo Sheng, the treasure seems to be over there!"
Mo Sheng was stunned for a moment, then looked where Bai Sha was pointing, and saw a broken mast appearing in the dense forest in the distance.
He frowned, someone had been here before, and it seemed that they came by ship, but it looked like the ship was not very good, it was damaged when it passed through the underground, and it ran aground here.
"Then come and have a look!"
After jumping off the ship, Mo Sheng tied the anchor chain to a boulder, then pierced the anchor into the ground, clapped his hands, and turned off the ship's startup system. High-level ships naturally have keys.
.
Everyone also left the ship, and the seven of them walked along the river bank towards the wreckage they had seen before.
The sky gradually became dim, and the setting sun shone through the gaps in the leaves in spots.
A moment later, the three of them arrived at the location of the wreckage, and pulled out a huge ravine several meters deep and nearly ten meters wide from the lake. Only stones remained in the depths. Although it had been covered with grass and vegetation again over time, there was no
Trees take root.
On top of the wreckage, green vines climbed up and covered most of the entire wreckage of the ship. This was the reason why Mo Sheng didn't notice it at the first time. It was because Bai Sha maintained the excellent habit of observing the surrounding environment first when arriving at a new place.
, the ship was discovered.
The entire ship looks to be over forty meters tall, a little smaller than Mo Sheng's ship. It looks like it is worth about four to five thousand spirit stones. Of course, if it were hundreds of years apart, the value would not necessarily be that much.
point.
"Lu Keyue, look, is this driven by your ancestor?"
Mo Sheng turned around and asked Lu Keyue. He slowly opened the vines with a thin sword and cut off the entangled branches, revealing some of the iconic features of the ship, such as the collision angle of the bow and some patterns on the side.
Of course, these were all severely damaged, and this ship didn't look like an adventurer's ship. It looked a bit like a warship, but it wasn't as standard as today's warships.
This is also understandable. At that time, maritime exploration was just beginning, and not many people were dedicated to this aspect. It would be good to have the energy to explore the sea, and the warships that were built were naturally not standardized.
"... Mr. Mo, this is indeed the warship of our royal family. This symbol is the unique symbol of a maritime fleet of our ancestors. This is the place indicated by the treasure map!"
Lu Keyue said excitedly, touching the dilapidated sign on the ship.
"Want to explore now?"
Lu Keyue turned to Mo Sheng and asked, after all, Mo Sheng has the final say now.
"...It's best not to. It's getting dark. Since we've found our destination, it's okay to wait. I don't know if there are any dangers here. It's best to continue exploring tomorrow!"
Mo Sheng shook his head, and everyone took advantage of the last light of the setting sun to return to the ship.
