Chapter 497 Movable Iceberg



It would be a lie to say they didn't see it. Not only did Wang Chengye see it, but even Li Zong, who has poor dynamic vision, saw it. The speed was indeed very fast, but it wasn't to the point that they couldn't see it at all.

Li Zong trembled as he said, "What is that? What the hell is that thing?! It's terrifying..."

Bai Tiantian said in a low voice, "Don't be too nervous. It should be a fish or shrimp from the sea, but it has mutated, so it is a little larger than usual."

Li Zong fell silent. Was it a little big, or much bigger...? He suddenly realized that Bai Tiantian was quite good at comforting people sometimes. The dark figure really looked like a human being more than two meters tall.

Calling them fish and shrimp is a bit too scary.

Bai Tiantian continued, "You probably haven't been in the water much. When I transformed into a falcon, my eyesight was excellent. I observed aquatic creatures for a while, and most of them showed signs of growing larger to varying degrees, especially in the deep water. The deeper you go, the more enormous marine creatures you encounter."

Wang Chengye said softly, "That makes sense. Even before the apocalypse, there were fish in the sea that were extremely large."

Qiao He said to Bai Tiantian, "You can sense whether those creatures have any ill intentions towards us, right, Tiantian?"

Bai Tian nodded and said, "Yes, most of them are fine. Don't worry, let's continue looking for the entrance."

Qiao He nodded slightly, "Okay, but... if we really can't find it, then we'll have to resort to force to get in."

No one said much; it seemed that this was the only path they could take now.

After searching for about ten minutes, we were still completely baffled. There was nothing in the sea, not even an iceberg, let alone any caves.

Shen Huai frowned and said, "Li Zong, you can't be mistaken, can you? Is this really the place?"

Li Zong's eyes widened, and he said with a slightly excited tone, "It's true! I've looked several times, it's really here, but I don't know why... I can't find the entrance. It's strange, I'm also very frustrated."

"I'll continue probing to see what's going on; maybe I can find the entrance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zong once again used his supernatural ability on Ye Hong. His eyes seemed to follow Ye Hong, and the closer they got, the more accurately he could pinpoint Ye Hong's location.

Finally, Li Zong "saw" Ye Hong!

He opened his eyes, slightly out of breath, and said, "I see it, it's right here, not far, maybe a kilometer or two, but... it seems to be a kilometer or two deep?"

Li Zong scratched the back of his head. It seemed that Ye Hong was heading downwards, not further away.

Qiao He frowned slightly: "Strange, are they going to keep searching for something down there?"

For some reason, the image of the Orchid Substance popped into Qiao He's mind. Could it be that they also knew about the peculiarity of this substance, and given that Ye Hong's ability was to devour and fuse, they wanted to find more Orchid Substance to integrate into their own bodies?

It's not impossible!

Qiao He gritted her teeth. She had to find Ye Hong and Qiao Yuan as soon as possible. If they got their hands on more of the Orchid Substance, who knew what might happen?

Just then, Bai Tiantian's pupils suddenly contracted slightly, "There's an iceberg ahead!"

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed in unison. There were icebergs in the sea.

Qiao He immediately took control of the submarine to prevent them from crashing into it.

Bai Tiantian's forehead was covered in cold sweat. She said in a low voice, "That iceberg seemed to appear suddenly. If I hadn't reacted quickly, we would have all crashed into it by now."

Qiao He was slightly startled. She hadn't expected the sea to be so dangerous. Why would something like an iceberg suddenly appear? It was really strange.

At that moment, something even stranger happened.

The iceberg moved slowly, like a snail, gradually heading towards other places.

Something flashed through Qiao He's mind, and she immediately said to Li Zong, "Now monitor Ye Hong and Qiao Yuan's movements!"

Li Zong immediately replied, "Okay, I'll look at it now."

Perhaps a minute had passed, and they could see that the iceberg was getting further and further away from them. Moreover, under the night vision goggles, Qiao He could see that the iceberg seemed to be appearing and disappearing, like a projection about to vanish into thin air, giving it a sense of illusion and mystery.

Qiao He shouted, "Follow them!"

She kept the submarine in close pursuit of the iceberg, keeping a distance of only a few hundred meters—neither too close nor too far.

Finally, Li Zong opened his eyes and said, "It's moving that way! It seems to follow the same trajectory as the iceberg..."

Qiao He: "Okay, everyone hold on tight, we're going up into the iceberg."

This means exactly what it says: since Ye Hong and Qiao Yuan are both inside, it means that it is possible to enter the iceberg. No wonder they couldn't find the entrance to the cave before, because they weren't going to a cave at all, but rather the interior of the iceberg.

This iceberg is really strange, though; it's unclear what will happen once we go inside.

Qiao He slowly approached the iceberg in the submarine. The night vision goggles couldn't make out the iceberg's color clearly. If they could see colors and lights clearly in the deep sea, they would see that the iceberg was emitting a faint dark blue luster, somewhat like a giant blue diamond.

But it's not as pure as a diamond.

The group quickly changed into their diving suits. They weren't diving very deep yet, so the pressure was manageable. They wouldn't be unable to breathe due to the pressure once they entered the ocean.

The kittens transformed into human form, also wearing diving suits and carrying oxygen tanks.

To prevent them from getting separated, Qiao He tied ropes around everyone's wrists, which would make them safer after they got off the submarine.

During the day, Tiantian remained vigilant about the surrounding aquatic life, and would immediately notify everyone via mental voice if any danger arose.

The iceberg is moving faster, from a snail's pace to the speed of a tortoise crawling.

In her anxiety, Qiao He led everyone up the iceberg quickly.

However, the moment Qiao He touched the iceberg, everything around her began to move rapidly, as if being sucked in by something. When Qiao He came to her senses again, she was already inside the iceberg.

here……

It's like a naturally formed cave; apart from the dark entrance and the strange luster emanating from the ice and snow, there seems to be nothing else.

There are neither plants nor animals.

The group looked at each other, standing still, unsure of where to go.

At this moment, Qiao He said in a low voice, "Li Zong, how are you feeling? Are you still able to continue monitoring Ye Hong's location?"

Li Zong patted his chest: "Of course, no problem! Leave it to me."
