The Mysterious Ancient Kingdom Underwater in Fuxian Lake (Part 1)
After Lin Yu, Ye Li, and Zhao Yang successfully sealed the evil force at the bottom of Fuxian Lake, the lake seemingly returned to peace. However, the mysteries hidden beneath the lake lingered like a lingering fog, lingering in their minds. The rumor of a mysterious ancient kingdom beneath the lake, in particular, piqued their curiosity like an invisible hook, driving them to venture once again into these mysterious waters to explore the unknown truth.
Before setting off, the three of them nervously prepared in the equipment room. Lin Yu's expression was solemn as he repeatedly checked his diving equipment in his hands, his mind constantly flashing back to the thrilling scenes of his last trip to the bottom of the lake. "My last experience at the bottom of the lake made me realize that the dangers underwater in Fuxian Lake are beyond imagination. But the secrets of this mysterious ancient country are like a very tempting puzzle, waiting for us to solve. I always have a strong premonition that this ancient country must be inextricably linked to the previous underwater corpse storage and those strange events." Lin Yu said to Ye Li and Zhao Yang while checking his equipment, his eyes revealing a complex expression of determination and worry. He knew in his heart that every time he went deep into the unknown, it was like walking on a knife's edge, full of dangers, but his persistent pursuit of the truth made him choose to embark on the journey again without hesitation.
Ye Li nodded slightly, holding the newly collected historical data about Fuxian Lake in her hands, her expression focused. "Based on existing ancient documents and local legends, it's highly likely that a highly developed ancient kingdom existed in the Fuxian Lake area in ancient times. Legends claim this ancient kingdom possessed a unique and mysterious culture, its advanced technology so legendary that it was said to be able to communicate with the gods. However, puzzlingly, this ancient kingdom suddenly vanished without warning, as if it had sunk to the bottom of the lake overnight. If we can find this ancient kingdom, it would undoubtedly be a major breakthrough in archaeology and history. However, we must be aware that this also means facing more unknown dangers. After all, this ancient kingdom has been hidden at the bottom of the lake for so long, and it is likely surrounded by all kinds of unpredictable mechanisms and mysterious forces." Ye Li's voice was steady and calm, but a hint of worry slipped into her eyes. As an expert in the occult, she had a deep understanding of these unknown forces and knew that this journey of exploration would be full of difficulties and dangers.
Zhao Yang gripped his modified weapon tightly, his eyes firm and resolute. "No matter the danger, we've come this far. We can't give up halfway. We successfully sealed the evil last time, and this time we'll definitely uncover the secrets of the mysterious ancient kingdom. Besides, I'm here to protect you all from danger." Although Zhao Yang spoke with a heroic tone, he knew in his heart that the dangers of this mission might be far greater than before. The evil they faced last time had already put them through a life-or-death test. This time, no one knew what terrifying existence the ancient kingdom lurked in.
After the three of them had prepared, they boarded the familiar research vessel again and slowly sailed toward the center of Fuxian Lake. The lake was calm, and the sunlight shimmered on the surface, making it shimmer like a vast golden mirror. However, beneath this seemingly peaceful and tranquil surface, a myriad of secrets and dangers seemed to hide, leaving one shuddering. As the ship approached the area where the underwater morgue had been discovered, a few dark clouds suddenly drifted from the previously clear sky, like black ghosts, slowly obscuring the sunlight. In an instant, the lake grew dark, as if shrouded in a heavy haze.
"The weather's getting really weird. It feels exactly like last time. Something's about to happen again." Zhao Yang stared at the sky, his brow furrowed, a strong sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. The last time he explored, the weather had also changed without warning, and he had subsequently encountered a series of strange events, which made him particularly wary of such weather changes.
Lin Yu nodded slightly, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. "Everyone, please be vigilant. Our last experience has served as a warning. Nothing under Fuxian Lake can be taken lightly. Perhaps this weather change is a sign of impending new challenges." Lin Yu's heart was equally filled with vigilance. He knew that in this mysterious lake, every subtle change could signal impending danger.
When the boat arrived at the designated location, Lin Yu took a deep breath, put on his diving gear first, and jumped into the water again without hesitation. The lake water was still icy cold, as if countless tiny ice needles instantly penetrated his diving suit and pierced his skin. He turned on his headlamp, and the familiar dim light scattered in the water, but it could only illuminate a small area around him, while the rest of the place was still swallowed by darkness. As he continued to dive, the surrounding environment gradually became familiar and unfamiliar. What was familiar was the terrain and water flow here, as if the memory of the last adventure still lingered; what was unfamiliar was the mysterious atmosphere that always followed him, becoming more and more intense, as if countless pairs of eyes were peeping at him in the depths of the darkness, making every nerve of his tense.
"I've descended to a depth of 10 meters. My surroundings appear normal, but the feeling of being watched is growing stronger. It's as if countless pairs of eyes are staring at me in the darkness," Lin Yu reported to the ship via the communication device. His voice echoed through the water, carrying a hint of undisguised nervousness. His heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. Despite having experienced underwater adventures before, facing the unknown and mysterious ancient country, he felt a surge of unease, as if he were about to step into a dark maze filled with traps.
On the boat, Ye Li stared intently at the monitoring equipment. The data on it flickered like a chaotic code, constantly jumping and flashing. "Lin Yu, the equipment indicates an abnormal energy fluctuation below you. Although it's not strong yet, you must pay close attention and report any changes. Also, there's a slight change in the water flow, which may affect your dive. You must proceed with caution." Ye Li's eyes revealed concern, her fingers moving quickly on the equipment, trying to decipher more information about the underwater situation from the complex data. She knew that at this critical moment, any subtle piece of information could affect Lin Yu's safety.
