The cold sea water enveloped the diving boat, and Mou Xuan's heart beat with the slight vibration of the boat.
The entrance to the deep-sea channel is like the throat of a giant beast, deep and mysterious, flashing a strange blue-green light.
He took a deep breath and looked ahead with a determined gaze.
Energy is their only goal on this trip and their only hope for survival.
"Wu, pay attention to navigation. The passage is narrow, be careful not to get scratched." Mou Xuan's voice was steady and powerful, echoing in the narrow cabin.
"Understood, Captain." Navigator Wu Shenhai stared at the navigation screen, controlling the rudder steadily with both hands.
On the rock walls on both sides of the passage, there grow strange luminous plants, like ghosts on the seabed, emitting disturbing light.
These lights interweave in the water, forming unpredictable light and shadows, making people feel as if they are in a strange dream.
The submarine slowly went deeper, the light in the passage became brighter and brighter, and the pressure around it became greater and greater.
Mou Xuan could feel the hull trembling slightly, as if it would be crushed by the tremendous pressure at any time.
But this did not shake his determination
"Report to the captain, a large cave has been found ahead, and strong energy fluctuations have been detected!" Li Shenhai resource collector's voice was filled with a hint of excitement.
Mou Xuan perked up and immediately walked to the screen.
A huge cave appeared on the screen. The entrance of the cave was covered by a thin layer of light curtain. There was a dazzling light flashing inside the light curtain, as if it contained huge energy.
"Li, what is the preliminary judgment of the type of energy?" Mou Xuan asked anxiously.
"According to the analysis of energy fluctuations, it is very likely a high-concentration crystal energy with huge reserves!" Li's voice was filled with excitement.
High concentration crystal energy!
This is exactly what they dreamed of!
If they can obtain these energy sources, their exploration plan can continue and even achieve greater breakthroughs.
"Get closer to the cave!" Mou Xuan gave the order decisively.
The diving boat slowly approached the cave, and the moment the hull touched the light curtain, the alarm suddenly sounded!
"Alert! Alert! Unknown creatures detected approaching!"
"What's going on?" Mou Xuan's heart sank suddenly.
Before he could react, a group of huge deep-sea mechanical creatures suddenly emerged from the cave!
These mechanical creatures have various shapes, gleam with metallic luster, and are equipped with various weapons. They look like they are not easy to mess with.
"Damn! It's the Guardian!" Deep Sea Explorer Chen exclaimed.
"Liu, activate the weapon system!" Mou Xuan made a prompt decision.
"Weapon system activated!" The voice of Liu Qian, the submarine engineer, followed closely.
The weapon system on the submarine was activated instantly. Laser cannons, electromagnetic cannons, torpedoes...all kinds of weapons fired at the same time, attacking the deep-sea mechanical creatures fiercely.
The deep-sea mechanical creatures were not to be outdone. They nimbly dodged the attacks while firing various energy beams towards the submersible.
Inside the cabin, the sounds of alarms, weapons, and metal collisions intertwined to form a tense and exciting battle march.
"Zhang, analyze their weaknesses!" Mou Xuan shouted.
"Analyzing..." Biologist Zhang Shenhai stared at the screen, his fingers typing quickly on the keyboard, analyzing the structure and weaknesses of the mechanical organism.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the battle became extremely fierce.
The energy of the submersible is being consumed rapidly, but the number of deep-sea mechanical creatures has not decreased at all.
"Found it! Their joints are their weak points!" Deep-sea biologist Zhang finally found a breakthrough.
"Everyone, concentrate your firepower on attacking their joints!" Mou Xuan immediately issued new orders.
After receiving the order, all weapons concentrated their firepower on attacking the joints of the deep-sea mechanical creatures.
As expected, the joints of these mechanical creatures had weak defenses and were destroyed one after another under the concentrated attack.
One after another, the deep-sea mechanical creatures were shot down and sank to the bottom of the sea.
The balance of the battle gradually tilted towards Mou Xuan and his team...
After a fierce battle, they successfully defeated the deep-sea mechanical creatures.
After entering the cave...
The cold sea water enveloped the diving boat, and the hull trembled slightly, echoing the aftermath of the battle just now.
The wreckage of deep-sea mechanical creatures was scattered around, like withered steel flowers, silently telling of the brutality of the battle.
Mou Xuan held onto the operating table, his chest still heaving violently. The battle just now had almost exhausted his strength.
But he had no time to rest, his eyes were fixed on the detection system of the submarine, which displayed their spoils of this trip - a cave full of energy crystals.
The walls of the cave are inlaid with crystals that sparkle with a faint blue light, like bright stars in the night sky.
Deep-sea resource collector Li was operating a robotic arm, expertly cutting pieces of energy crystals and loading them into the storage compartment of the submersible.
These energy crystals contain huge amounts of energy, enough to replenish the consumption of the submarine and bring back precious resources for the alliance.
"This time the harvest is really not small," Li, the deep-sea resource collector, said excitedly, "These energy crystals are enough for us to conduct several deep-sea explorations!"
Mou Xuan nodded, but there was not much joy on his face.
He always felt that something was wrong, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness enveloped him.
This sea area is too calm, so calm that it is scary.
Although the deep-sea mechanical creature just now was powerful, the timing and location of its appearance were too coincidental, as if it was specially arranged to guard this cave.
"Speed up," Mou Xuan said in a deep voice, "Let's collect the resources and leave here as soon as possible."
