"The first pressure test of the DiTrieste! The pipeline pressure is 300 atmospheres and the valve is opened!"

"The first circuit test! All switches, full load, ready, turn on!"

"Propulsion system trial operation, 80% output!"

"The memory metal film is energized and ready!"

In the dock, the Rock Flow Research Institute was conducting final inspections on the Trieste. Technicians were shouting loudly. Thousands of cables were connected to the Trieste, and dozens of instruments were flashing around it.

Move. This shipyard is adjacent to the power room of Xumizuo. The concrete insulation walls cannot block the heat of the boilers in the power room. It is over 40 degrees in the shipyard and the air is completely blocked. However, during the pressure test, Diriyas

The special number will spew out airflow like a Category 12 hurricane, and the hot air in the entire dock will flow at high speed, and there will be terrible ultrasonic noise, but no one of the technicians at the Rock Flow Research Institute showed an expression of discomfort. They were fully focused on

The work in your hands completely excludes irrelevant things.

"The dive is about to begin in fifteen minutes, are you nervous?"

"Would you believe me when I say I'm not nervous? How about you come down instead of me and I'll wait for your triumphant return from above?"

"You're thinking of eating peaches!"

Lu Mingfei was sitting cross-legged in the corner of the dock, and next to him was Chu Zihang who was also sitting cross-legged. The light in the middle of the dock cast their long shadows on the concrete wall.

They have all put on waterproof combat uniforms. The surface of the combat uniforms is made of extremely thin and fine metal mesh. The electrostatic barrier formed by this thing can help them resist the mental impact of the embryo.

Although the possibility of him needing to go down was not high, in order to be able to take immediate countermeasures if something unexpected happened, Mo Qianye also put on a combat uniform on himself.

After finding a seat where the wind was not so strong and sitting down, Mo Qianye watched Lu Mingfei staring at the short contact list on the iPhone in his hand, and said casually: "Before I go, don't send Ling a text message asking for help."

Blessings?”

"Um."

Lu Mingfei held the mobile phone with one hand, and input information on the touch screen skillfully with his thumb. He also called out the "Life as a Summer Flower" photo taken last night from the photo album and sent it to it.

Not long after, the phone vibrated and it was a reply from Ling. There were only two words on it: "Come on."

But just these two words "come on" gave Lu Mingfei endless confidence, because Zero was cheering him on! Lu Mingfei felt full of confidence for a moment. Even if a dragon king appeared in front of him, he would dare to pick up the kitchen knife.

Have a fight with him.

Love is such a crazy power!

Fifteen minutes passed quickly. With Mo Qianye waving his hands and blessing, the three of them boarded the Diryste, which was about to dive, and prepared to go to the Eighth Route Army, which only ten people have been to in history.

Thousand meters of abyss.

"The time is 10:15 at night, and the coordinates are 122 degrees 56 minutes east longitude and 35 degrees 33 minutes north latitude. The Longyuan Project has been launched. I am the on-site commander Yuan Zhisheng. I ordered the release of the Dieste." Yuan Zhisheng.

The student said, "I wish you good luck."

The diving dock at the bottom of the Sumeru constellation was opened, and the Ditrieste, loaded with heavy objects, fell into the black sea. White bubbles could be seen pouring out from the bottom of the Sumeru constellation, which was the air released by the Ditryeste. The frogman group dived in

In the sea, hang the safety line on the safety hook on the top of the Trieste, and the other end of the safety line is connected to the wheel on the top of the Xumizuo. This huge wheel is wrapped with a twelve-kilometer-long safety line.

This kind of metal safety rope is resistant to wear and tear, and can lift five Dirieste. The equipment department's specially designed recovery system can recover the bathyscaphe from the bottom of the polar abyss to the surface of the sea within 20 minutes.

The frogmen came out of the water and gave a thumbs up to Yuan Zhisheng on the top of the Xumizuo, indicating that the work of attaching the safety rope was successfully completed. The wheel began to rotate, which showed that the Di Trieste was heading towards the bottom of the sea step by step.

Watching the shadow of the Dirieste gradually disappear under the water, Mo Qianye turned around and was about to go to the headquarters to make a cup of hot coffee when his cell phone hanging in the waterproof bag on his chest suddenly vibrated.

When the sender displayed a string of garbled characters, but the content was a coordinate, Mo Qianye looked around and saw that no one noticed anything strange about him, so he replied with the word "understood" and turned off his phone.

However, thirty seconds after he turned off the phone, the sender replied to him with this sentence. Unfortunately, the phone was turned off and could not be seen: "Come on, my little shepherd dog."

In a short time, Lu Mingfei and the others were at a depth of 300 meters. This was no longer a shallow water layer dense with organisms. At this moment, there was only darkness outside, as if the universe had just begun, and they were suspended in the middle of an empty world.

"You all say there is a lot of pressure outside, how big is the pressure?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"It is said that the pressure is about 30 atmospheres, which is equivalent to a girl weighing 200 kilograms standing on top of you." Caesar calculated in his mind.

"Is that a girl who weighs 200 kilograms? You might as well say that I am covered with pigs from a pig farm."

"When you reach the bottom of the abyss, there will be 20 pigs standing on you." Caesar laughed.

Yuan Zhisheng was listening to the chat of the dive team on the communication channel, imagining these 250 people singing and dancing in the small cockpit. It’s really strange. Originally, my heart was extremely loaded, but I could hear these crazy people not saying a word.

Nonsense, I actually relaxed slightly.

"What's wrong? Where are they now?" Mo Qianye walked in, glanced at Yuan Zhisheng who was listening to the nonsensical chat between Lu Mingfei and the others, walked behind him, picked up a kettle, and gave it to

I made myself a cup of instant coffee.

Holding the hot coffee cup in his hand, Mo Qianye felt that his body was beginning to warm up.

"They have now dived to a depth of 300 meters, and they are expected to arrive at Jiyuan in four hours." Yuan Zhisheng put down his headphones and said.

When the two of them were exchanging words, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded on the console, and Mo Qianye almost spilled the half-drunk coffee that was still steaming.

"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?"

"No, something happened to the Dieste!" Yuan Zhisheng said with a pale face.

The Trieste was shaking violently, and Caesar's face turned pale, "The bathyscaphe failed! The bathyscaper failed! Call Sumeru! Call Sumeru! The pressures of No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 watertight compartments dropped at the same time. We

Losing buoyancy! Repeat, we are losing buoyancy!"

There was no abnormality beforehand, but suddenly the submersible faltered, and the readings of all the instruments fluctuated violently. The Diriaste had four air chambers, three of which were leaking at the same time, and the compressed air was escaping crazily.

The feeling of weightlessness immediately hit them, the numbers on the depth gauge jumped, and they were falling into the deep sea at high speed.

"2400...2680...3260..." Chu Zihang quickly reported the number. In just one minute, they had sunk half a kilometer.

The Diriaste still uses an old-fashioned instrument panel. The depth gauge has four digital dials, tens, hundreds and thousand. The ones and tens digital dials are rotating rapidly. Chu Zihang can't even read the tens digits clearly.

plate.

"Slow down! Find a way to slow down! The sudden increase in water pressure will damage your shell!" Yuan Zhisheng yelled.

"There's no way to slow down! We're hitting the bottom of the sea like rocks!" Lu Mingfei's voice trembled, "How can rocks slow down themselves?"

Lu Mingfei felt that his soul was about to be thrown out of his body. The deep submersible was sinking and rolling at a high speed. To the people in the cockpit, it felt like riding a roller coaster, but roller coasters around the world only take three minutes to reach the station.

, they have been rolling for more than ten minutes. If they keep rolling like this, this roller coaster will only end up in hell.

"Try to cut off the air valve! Keep the air in the air chamber! You must find a way to increase buoyancy!" Yuan Zhisheng said.

"I've tried it. The problem is the air valve. I have lost control of that valve!" Caesar twisted the knob of the air valve in vain.

A huge amount of bubbles floated up around the deep submersible, making a sound like thunder. Lu Mingfei looked out from the observation port, and his field of vision was filled with the silver reflection of the bubbles. Chu Zihang quickly opened the blueprint of the Dilieste. Something went wrong.

It should be the air valve on the top of the submersible. It is the pressure relief valve of air cabins No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3. It is usually not opened. That valve is only used in extremely rare circumstances. It is hidden in

Under the thick pressure-resistant armor, it was very troublesome to detect. But it turned out that there was a problem with a small valve hidden so deep, not those common valves that had been opened and closed thousands of times.

"This is a design flaw. If the pressure relief valve leaks, all other valves will be closed and they will not be able to prevent air from escaping." Chu Zihang said, "We can only reduce the speed of air escape as much as possible."

"I can block the pipeline leading to the pressure relief valve by switching the three-way pipeline, but that operation takes time! Damn it! Didn't the guys in the equipment department say that this transformation is a masterpiece?" Caesar forehead

I was covered in cold sweat.

"I can try to turn on the balance rudder and stop the rolling first. We can't do anything while rolling like this," Chu Zihang said.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, nuclear power cabin! Use the nuclear power cabin!" Mo Qianye rummaged quickly on the console, trying to find a solution, when he turned to the power system page of the Ditryeste

, it was discovered that the Equipment Department had installed a small nuclear power cabin on the Dieste, but when he thought that this nuclear power cabin was provided by the Equipment Department, which was best at creating various explosions, Mo Qianye was very suspicious of this.

This thing is basically a nuclear bomb, a 10-million-ton bomb!

"Call the Diteste! Call the Diteste! The Rock Flow Research Institute has provided an emergency plan. If you can turn on the strong power source of the Diteste and cooperate with the stabilizer fins and balance rudder, you can

Enter the water gliding state! It can slow down the sinking speed. But be quick, in ten minutes you will fall into the trench and smash to pieces on the sea bed!" A childish voice came from the earphones.

"Is the powerful power source you're talking about the nuclear power cabin installed by the equipment department?" Caesar grabbed the belt on the bulkhead and stood up, smashing the glass cover on the console with his elbow, and tightly holding on to the

Yellow wrench.

Only then did Lu Mingfei notice the nuclear symbol on the wrench: "Holy shit, right? This thing is actually nuclear-powered?"

"The original version was powered by the most common hydrochloric acid battery, but the equipment department felt that the power was too small to complete a large-scale survey, so a nuclear power cabin was installed. Therefore, this deep submersible has two sets of power sources. The weak power source is lithium batteries.

Drive, the strong power source is the nuclear power cabin." Caesar said, "But can you trust the nuclear power cabin assembled by the Equipment Department?"

"Aren't they... not very good at nuclear technology?" Lu Mingfei stammered.

"There were a few experts from Oak Ridge who developed the world's first atomic bomb."

"This awesome team is still unreliable?"

"Their specialty is atomic bombs! If the nuclear power chamber explodes, it is equivalent to a 10-million-ton nuclear bomb, which may cause an undersea earthquake or tsunami. In the worst case, it can sink Japan."

"The depth is 6,400 meters. We still have two kilometers to hit the bottom of the polar abyss. The rolling has stopped and the deep dive has returned to the normal position!" Chu Zihang firmly grasped the operating levers of the rudder and stabilizer, "If there is power, we can proceed

Gliding underwater.”

"What is underwater gliding?" Lu Mingfei couldn't understand what these people were talking about. Every noun was enigmatic, but these enigmatic nouns were all related to his life.

"The equipment department has installed a stabilizer wing on this deep submersible, which is similar to the wing of an airplane. With the support of strong power, it can cruise underwater at a speed of 12 knots. The stabilizer wing provides lift. Simply put, it is like flying in the sea.

aircraft."

"Is it necessary to be so advanced? But it's okay if it can save lives! Falling into the trench is a dead end anyway, so why not just trust the equipment department and bet that the nuclear power module won't blow up!"
