Chapter 843 Undersea Pyramid

"If you lose control..." Layton just imagined it, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

"Let's not talk about it for now. We are about to reach the destination coordinates. I estimate that Yagunaktor will most likely plunge directly into the sea... Something with such a large volume and mass will definitely cause huge waves, Leiton informed

Get rid of the garrison troops on the offshore floating platform and prepare them to resist the waves."

Less than two seconds after Leighton finished sending the message to the garrison on the platform, the bow of Yagunaktor, which was originally flying horizontally, suddenly sank, and the entire battleship violently rotated ninety degrees in the air, heading straight towards

The sea below falls!

"I'm going!" The hound subconsciously grabbed the guardrail installed on the periphery of the console, but the ground of the core power room did not become tilted due to the falling posture of the battleship. It was obviously similar to the suspended cockpit of a mecha.

design.

"Damn, this is exciting..." Layton stared at the holographic image on the console and murmured.

They thought that even if Yagunaktor was about to enter the water, he would find an angle to cut into the water diagonally, and even if he wanted to land vertically, he would slow down. However, no one expected that Yagunaktor not only

No braking was taken, but instead it rushed towards the water like a direct cannonball - fortunately it was still far away from the coast, otherwise a large tsunami would have been inevitable.

"Quickly, let all the aircraft of the troops garrisoned on the floating platform on the sea take off, and keep at least an altitude of more than three thousand meters... The remaining people immediately dive into the water, the depth must be more than fifty meters! Also, Yaguna can

After Thor enters the water, a low-pressure area will inevitably be created at the stern of the ship, so those who dive to avoid the waves should be careful not to be sucked into the whirlpool!" the hound said quickly.

Being so close to Yagunaktor's water entry point, it is actually very dangerous to dive into the water, but there is nothing we can do about it - the survival rate of staying on the sea surface will only be lower than that of staying in the water.

Not long after the news was sent out, the planes parked on the floating platform on the sea took off one after another, and the remaining people took a few speedboats and quickly headed in the opposite direction.

"Damn it, I asked them to hide under the water, not run away in the boat!" The hound punched his thigh with some annoyance, "Are these guys crazy? No matter how fast the boat is, the waves can't be fast.

?”

"They replied that they did not have that much diving equipment and that they had sent a request for assistance to the nearest cruise fleet. If the message could be received..."

"Alas, it seems they can only ask for their own blessings..." Looking at the sea that was getting closer, the hound sighed.

The sea water in Zhonghai is highly toxic and contains high-intensity radiation. If you fall into the sea without wearing protective equipment, you will definitely die. If you escape by boat, you may still have a chance of survival.

But just when Yagunaktor was about to touch the sea, the battleship's energy shield suddenly opened to maximum power. A large amount of seawater boiled and then evaporated, and a large whirlpool suddenly appeared on the sea - those who escaped

The speedboat and offshore floating platform were directly involved in this vortex and were instantly crushed to pieces.

"Fuck!" The hound stomped on the floor hard, with a hint of unbearability in his eyes.

As the seawater evaporated, Yagunaktor's resistance suddenly became much smaller, and he slid into the seawater very smoothly, and then quickly dived towards the depth of the seabed.

"We are still 2,400 meters away from the seabed... According to this momentum, we will crash directly into the city, and it is very likely to trigger a violent underwater earthquake." Layton said.

"Earthquakes are earthquakes. Isn't this the earthquake in the molten mine area caused by this thing... Anyway, there are no longer any strongholds in this sea area. People in the transfer stations in the coastal areas should also have taken refuge. Let it go.

Hit it." The hound said with a look of disdain.

"That's not right." Zhuoligetu suddenly interrupted.

"What's wrong?" The hound turned his head, glanced at the sturdy Mongolian man, and asked.

"The undersea city that Ke Lan arrived at was not the one on the seabed." Zhuoligetu said solemnly, "He once mentioned that the city was built on a raised sea platform.

Not on a flat seabed. Moreover, if it were this undersea city, the deep-diving suit Ke Lan wore at that time could not withstand the huge water pressure at a depth of three thousand meters."

"Fuck!" The hound slapped his forehead and cursed in a low voice, "How could I forget such an important thing!"

"In other words, this is a...new ruins that we have never explored before." Zhuoligetu continued.



Although the energy shield had been closed, Yagunaktor's dive speed was still very fast. It only took less than thirty minutes to reach a depth of three hundred meters from the seabed.

Yagunaktor stopped at this depth, floating quietly in the deep sea, like a sleeping giant beast.

There is no lighting equipment on the outside of Yagunaktor, and nothing can be seen in the pitch black darkness on the surveillance screen, but the panoramic scanning equipment displays the shape of the seabed on another screen in the form of 3D modeling——

The entire seabed is very flat. The remains of an oval city with an area roughly equivalent to two East Ninth Districts are centered on a pyramid-shaped building in the center and spread out to all sides.

Several people in the core power room almost immediately focused their attention on the pyramid-shaped building.

"It is indeed not the 'Undersea City' that Ke Lan has visited." Hound murmured, "He never mentioned that there is a pyramid in the center of the Undersea City, and the stone pillars he described can be seen everywhere.

There are no statues here at all.”

The sonar accuracy of the "Pioneer" icebreaker is completely incomparable with that of Yaguna Kotor's scanning equipment. The former can only scan a "suspected ruin of a city" on the seabed, while Yaguna Kotor's scan can

The equipment can even accurately outline the outline of each building.

"What do you think this pyramid is used for?" Layton asked.

"The term pyramid comes from the tombs of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs and the temples used by the Mayans to worship in the old era. It also symbolizes some mysterious cosmic energy." Zofia Soma continued, "But before the Alpha civilization

There is currently no conclusion in the academic community about what the Chinese symbol means.”

"Are there any pyramid-shaped buildings in the ruins of Alpha Civilization?" Chi Hanfeng, who had been standing in the corner and said nothing the whole time, said, "I don't know much about the ruins. I think you should be considered experts in this area.

Bar."

"I don't dare to be an expert, but I have read general information about famous ruins, even if I have never been there." Hound's tone was very serious, as if he had changed. "There are pyramid-shaped buildings in the ruins,

But there aren’t many...and most of them don’t have any specific meaning or use.”

"Old dog, do you still remember the ruins we explored when we first 'teamed up'?" Layton's tone suddenly became a little weird.

"Of course I remember the A-087 ruins 'Glacier Fissure', but after its twin ruins 'Bottomless Sink' was exposed, the ruins completely collapsed and fell into the abyss, even if there was anything else in there

The things have not been excavated and are now buried deep underground.”

"Do you still remember the missing pilot's body? It turned into a monster in the end, and we spent a lot of effort to kill it." Layton continued to ask.

"Of course I remember, but compared to the enemies we encountered later, that monster can only be considered weak." Hound nodded.

"The key is not the monster, but the sarcophagus that the monster climbed out of was placed on a high platform shaped like a pyramid!" Leighton said.

"You want to say that this pyramid-shaped building is the tomb of the Alpha people? Just like those pharaohs in ancient Egypt?" The hound frowned, "Building the tomb in the center of the city... Although it always makes me feel uncomfortable

It’s an indescribable weird feeling, but when I think about it, this is the Alpha civilization, not the people on Earth, and all the unreasonable things seem to make sense.”

"No, that's not what I meant." Who knew that Layton shook his head, "I think this is a temple, or an altar."

"Why?" Hound asked confused, "Do you think that the resurrected pilot's body was actually a sacrifice placed on the altar?"

"At that time, we all regarded the stone cabinet as a coffin, and the pilot's body crawling out of it later reinforced our first impression... But thinking about it now, maybe we were a little preconceived... That stone cabinet was very

Maybe the original purpose was not to store corpses, but it was just too suitable for its size."

"I suddenly remembered something." Zhuoligetu also said, "According to the survey data on the living areas in the ruins of the Alpha civilization, the living space of the Alpha people is obviously larger than that of humans. Ke Lan also said that he

Saw it in the 'Mewtwo' video

The image of the Alpha Man has an upper body similar to that of a human, but the lower body has a large number of tentacles. The entire body is much larger than that of a human... For humans, the 'sarcophagus' that is just the right size is too big for the Alpha Man.

It’s too small.”

"So, that 'sarcophagus' is actually just a box used to store things." Zhuoligetu continued, "The broken stone tablet is stored there."

"According to Ke Lan's recollection, the stone tablet was engraved with prayers to that 'great god'... That's why I thought that the pyramid-shaped stone tablet might be used by the Alpha people to worship their god.

The altar." As soon as Layton finished speaking, his whole body suddenly froze, and he turned his head to look at the hound, "Old dog... Yagunaktor's locked state has been released."

"Relieved? So you can control it now?" The hound's expression suddenly perked up and he asked.

"No, my operating authority has been deleted. Unless I can contact Ke Lan and ask him to grant me the authority again, I won't be able to activate this big guy." Layton shook his head, "But now,

We can get out."

"Get out? How to get out? There is a three-thousand-meter-deep seabed outside. Once you get out, you will be pressed as thin as paper." The hound shrugged, "We are still locked up in this prison."

"If there are only a few people, it is not impossible to go out." Chi Hanfeng stood up, "In order to explore various areas inside Yagunakitor, we have prepared equipment corresponding to various environments.

It includes a small deep submersible that can accommodate four people. The ultimate depth of this deep submersible is about 11,000 meters. Even the "Eye of Hell" in the extreme sea can only go in to a depth of 3,000 meters.

No problem at all.”

"The deep submersible..." Hound and Layton looked at each other, and both of them saw a trace of worry and fear in the other's eyes. "I remember very clearly that the deep submersible that was put down by the icebreaker "Pioneer",

When it was pulled up, there was not a single living person inside...Rather than a deep submersible, I prefer to call it an iron coffin."

"But this is our only means of leaving at the moment." Chi Hanfeng, who has not experienced the Undersea City incident, will naturally not sympathize with this fear. The description in words alone is far from seeing the fished-out deep sea with his own eyes.

The wreckage of the submersible was shocking. "You can rest assured that this deep submersible was provided by the Ye Consortium. I and

The technician team has gone through a series of modifications and enhancements, and there is absolutely no problem with its safety. You have to know that when the scientific research team of the institute explored the "Eye of Hell" abyss in the extreme sea, they used a large number of deep-sea underwater vehicles of this model.

The prototype of the submersible has achieved zero accident rate after so many missions, let alone this enhanced model."

"No, it's not that we can't trust the performance of the deep submersible..." Hound waved his hand, "Oh, let's not talk about this anymore. No matter how high the risk is, we can only bite the bullet and go ahead."

He knew very well that if he continued to hesitate, it would be difficult for the situation to turn around - although the closed transmission channel was opened again, the situation they were trapped in remained unchanged. It was just that the four walls of the cage were made of Yagunaktor.

The hull of the ship turned into hundreds of millions of tons of sea water.

There are nearly 80,000 people inside Yagunaktor... and the remaining food cannot last long at all.

Hounds dare not think about what people can do when they are extremely hungry.

"Leiton, you and the eldest lady stay behind at Yagunakitor, in case you can get in touch with Ke Lan... Of the four quotas for the deep submersible, I, Zhuoligetu plus Lao Chi, there is only one quota left.

…”

"I'm willing to go!" A young man named Qi Xiao, a reserve hunter of the God Hunting Group, volunteered and raised his hand.

"Screw you. If something happens to your kid, your father will never let me go." The hound raised his hand and gave him a violent shudder.

"I just contacted Ghost Owl, and he said he is willing to participate." Zhuoligetu said, "In terms of experience, he is better than the rest of us."

"That's right, Ghost Owl is also a well-known character in the hunter rankings. It's better to take him with you than a young boy." Hound nodded, "I was worried at first that he wouldn't take risks.

"

"Now everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. Even if I try to protect myself wisely, I can't." A cargo air-cushion vehicle with the logo of the logistics department made a beautiful tail drift and stopped in front of everyone. The heavily armed ghost

The owl jumped out of the cab.

He happened to be assisting the logistics personnel of the God Hunting Group in moving and distributing supplies. He was only a few hundred meters away from the console. As soon as he received the news, he immediately drove over in his car.
