Chapter 588: Class XXI U-Boat, Amber Palace (4k)



After dinner, Xia Yu went back to his room early to rest, and the maids who had finished their work for the day also had some free time.

Although located in the remote and desolate Arctic, being on the Polarstern is no different from being at home. Thanks to technological advancements, high-speed broadband has covered the Arctic for the first time, and there is a 100Mbps dedicated satellite line on board.

If it weren't for the polar regions, the Internet speed would be even faster, but the little maids are all internet addicts, and Xia Yu has no interest in it.

He only wants money (treasure) now!

"Catherine, why do you think Master is going to rest so early?"

Lina was lying on the head of the bed and talking to Catherine who was in the next bunk. One of them was the temporary head maid and the other was a kitchen maid, so they lived in the same double cabin.

"Maybe we're just too tired. We've been sailing day and night for almost a week, and this is the first time we've anchored."

Katherine said, putting down her phone.

In fact, she is also quite curious about her boss.

This mysterious tycoon from China not only has astonishing wealth, but also has a strong spirit of adventure. He drives an icebreaker alone to explore the Arctic.

At this time, the protagonist they were discussing had completed the preparations, and all the necessary equipment had been packed into or pinned on the bat belt by Xia Yu.

This is also an item won in a lottery. Although it does not have expansion functions such as space folding, it has both pretentious and practical performance, and is very suitable for use under the Aquaman buff.

It would be even better if there was a pair of big red shorts and the heroine's "whip". Xia Yu came out of the cabin in the snow and ice from the secret passage of the master bedroom.

The temperature of -37.6 degrees Celsius made him shiver a little, but before going into the sea, he took out his mobile phone from his belt, performed a few simple operations, and temporarily turned off the anti-frogman subsystem in the defense system.

This is because he was afraid that he would be caught as a frogman when trying to sneak on and off the boat, which would be extremely embarrassing.

"Plop~~"

Xia Yu jumped into the water and sank rapidly. The hypothermia and water pressure in the Buff state could not affect him. After a dozen breaths, he successfully touched the bottom.

The water depth was 73.9 meters. Looking at the professional diving watch on his wrist, he began to scan the surroundings, looking for the XXI-class U-boat code-named U-2526.

This type of U-boat was a first-class submarine used by the British Navy in the late World War II. A total of hundreds of them were built, but because they were developed and mass-produced too late, they failed to shine in battle like their predecessors.

It's a pity. You know, the XXI class is the prototype of modern submarines. It is a real "submarine" designed entirely for underwater combat. It is powered by diesel and electricity and does not need to surface frequently for charging.

With such powerful functions, the result was that they either sank themselves or were taken away by the Allies for research. The one we were looking for was sent to the polar regions right after it came off the production line and sank to the bottom of the sea as a treasure trove.

This sea area is close to the island and the water is shallow. Xia Yu soon found a rusty figure in the seabed ditch.

The huge hull looks like a coffin, and the raised hull reveals two twin 20mm anti-aircraft guns. However, after losing the waterproof tarpaulin, it is covered with seabed microorganisms and should be completely unable to catch fire.

If it's so bad outside, what about the situation inside the boat?

If it's sealed properly, there shouldn't be any leaks!

Xia Yu was not sure either. After all, this U-boat had been sleeping on the seabed for more than seventy years.

What he had to do now was to open it again and confirm the situation inside.

Pulling out the telescopic spear again, Xia Yu only opened one end. The alien alloy that could cut through iron like mud cut through the embroidered watertight hatch, directly making a hole.

He immediately felt the surge of water, and the sea water was rushing into the cabin through the hole.

Wow, it hasn’t leaked for half a century. If he pulls it back and repairs it, can’t he be able to re-enter the battle sequence?

This is really possible. The U-2540 in the U-boat Museum in Bremen Harbor is also a Class XXI U-boat. It sank before the defeat and was salvaged from the Firth of Flensburg in 1957. It joined the West German Navy in 1960 and was not retired until 1980 when it was turned into a museum.

The U-2526 in front of him had no water in its interior yet, and it was a new boat that had just come off the production line and was carrying out its final mission after sea trials. In theory, it could be revived.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu couldn't help but feel excited.

He has the guns and tanks from World War II, but he doesn’t have the U-boats from World War II!

Tow it back. It is not convenient to leave it at the port of Kana Island. There is also a berth at the underwater entrance of the Hive Base, which can easily accommodate this big ship with a length of 76.8 meters, a beam of 8 meters, and a full load displacement of up to 2,100 tons.

"Bo~~"

Looking at the hole that was still leaking, Xia Yu blew a bubble, which then expanded instantly, covering the entire hatch.

This water-repellent bead-like effect is a small application of Aquaman's buff. He doesn't want all the antiques inside to be ruined.

Although amber can come from the bottom of the sea, it is given a certain historical value after being carved by skilled craftsmen. The sea water with extremely high salt content will become extremely destructive.

He continued cutting into the hatch until he had made an opening large enough for him to enter and exit.

After passing through the bubble and entering the interior of the U-boat, the rotten air mixed with the smell of diesel hit him in the face. Xia Yu pulled out a can of oral compressed oxygen from his belt and held it in his mouth.

Outside of water, he is just a human with a stronger physical constitution, and he must have oxygen to stay alive.

After landing and standing firmly, he turned on the flashlight again, and the light instantly illuminated the situation inside the boat.

The entire submarine is like a maze. It is not easy to get lost if you wander around randomly, and it is also a waste of time, so Xia Yu came prepared.

He took out his usual pair of glasses from his belt and started scanning his retina. He called up a three-dimensional map of the XXI-class U-boat, and the micro-camera integrated into the frame began to collect information about the surrounding environment.
