Chapter 194 The Prelude and Preparation for the Deep Sea Crisis



"Judging from the images transmitted back by the robot, the underwater situation is very complex, with some strange light and shadow and fluctuations, and the water pressure is much higher than in normal sea areas," Lin Yu said, looking at the screen.

"Everyone be careful, keep communication open. We'll descend gradually according to plan," Conan said.

One by one, the group entered the water through the boat's diving port and began their descent. As the depth increased, the water pressure gradually rose, and a buzzing sound filled their ears. The surroundings were completely dark, with only the lights on their diving helmets illuminating a small area ahead.

Suddenly, a huge deep-sea creature swam swiftly through the darkness. Its body shimmered with an eerie light, and it resembled a giant octopus, but with sharp fins and razor-sharp teeth.

"What kind of creature is that? It looks so fierce," Ran Mouri said through the communication device.

Conan carefully observed the creature and said, "I've never seen this kind of creature before. Everyone, stay alert and don't provoke it."

Just then, the creature seemed to sense their presence, turned its head, and swam quickly towards them… What kind of dangers will Conan and his friends encounter in this unknown deep sea? Will they be able to successfully unravel the mystery of the deep-sea crisis and prevent the possible disaster? Everything is full of suspense.

Conan quickly considered a strategy. He noticed that although the creature was enormous, its movements seemed to be somewhat restricted by water pressure and its own structure. "Everyone, don't panic. Spread out and take advantage of its relatively slow movement to avoid direct confrontation," Conan calmly directed through the communication device.

The group quickly dispersed, and the mysterious creature nimbly turned in the water, charging towards Nightshade, who was closest to it. Nightshade, with his agile movements, swam swiftly through the water, skillfully dodging the creature's attacks. At the same time, he carefully observed the creature's movement patterns, trying to find its weakness.

“The creature’s eyes seem to be a key part; attacking them might temporarily disorient it,” Nightshade said.

Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri took out a specially made underwater high-intensity flashlight from her waist and shone it into the creature's eyes. The intense light scattered in the water, stinging the creature's eyes. Stimulated by the bright light, the creature let out a low growl and began to writhe violently, creating a dark current in the water.

Conan and Lin Yu took the opportunity to approach the creature. Lin Yu used a special tool to fire a bolt of electricity, striking the creature's body. After being struck by the electricity, the creature convulsed and its movements became even more sluggish.

However, the creature did not give up its attack easily. It changed direction and pounced on Conan and the others again, opening its huge mouth to reveal sharp teeth.

"Watch out for its teeth, everyone! Getting bitten will be a real problem!" Conan shouted.

Ai Haibara quickly analyzed the creature's behavior pattern. She noticed that the creature paused briefly before attacking, seemingly adjusting its body angle and speed. "Conan, it pauses before attacking. We can use this gap to dodge and counterattack," Ai Haibara said.

Sure enough, the creature paused briefly as it prepared to attack again. Conan seized the opportunity, quickly swimming to the creature's side while simultaneously taking a small sonic jammer from his backpack and emitting a powerful sonic wave. The sound wave propagated through the water, severely disrupting the creature, which writhed in agony and thrashed wildly in the water.

Taking advantage of the creature's confusion, Conan and the others quickly moved away from it and continued their descent into the deep sea. After some twists and turns, they finally reached the area where the anomaly had been detected earlier.

The seawater here has an unusual deep blue color, with a faint light emanating from it, as if the entire space is shrouded in a mysterious force. The seabed topography is also very peculiar, with huge rocks standing tall in various shapes, some like spires, and others like twisted behemoths.

"The environment here is so strange, completely different from the deep-sea environment we knew before," Lin Yu said.

Conan carefully observed his surroundings and noticed strange patterns on the rocks, which seemed to form some kind of design. He also sensed a faint energy fluctuation, which appeared to be related to the previously detected magnetic field anomaly.

"Everyone, look carefully and see if there are any other clues. These patterns and energy fluctuations may be the key to solving the crisis," Conan said.

The group began searching the surrounding area, leaving no detail overlooked. Suddenly, Ai Haibara discovered a hidden cave beneath a massive rock. A faint light emanated from the cave entrance, seemingly beckoning them.

“Conan, there’s a cave here. I sense an unusual energy inside,” Ai Haibara said.

Conan quickly swam to Ai Haibara's side and entered the cave with her. The cave was very spacious, with glowing crystals embedded in the walls, illuminating the cave brightly. Deep inside the cave, there was a huge circular stone platform, on which sat a crystal ball emitting a strong light.

"This crystal ball doesn't look simple; it might be related to the anomalies in the deep sea," Conan said.

Just then, a loud noise came from outside the cave, as if something was hitting it. Conan and Ai Haibara quickly returned to the cave entrance to investigate, and saw a group of mysterious creatures similar to those they had encountered before rushing towards the cave. Their eyes were full of hostility, and they seemed to be guarding the crystal ball inside the cave.

"It seems we've triggered their alarm; these creatures are here to stop us from getting close to the crystal ball," Conan said.

Another fierce underwater battle erupts. Will Conan and Ai Haibara be able to withstand the attacks of these creatures, uncover the secrets of the crystal ball, and resolve the deep-sea crisis? Everything is still unknown... Conan quickly thinks of a solution. He knows that in this narrow cave entrance, he cannot fight these creatures head-on; he must find a way to outsmart them.
