Chapter 1916 Mythical creatures walked out of the Mariana Trench

"Mariana Trench?"

I was stunned when I heard Zheng Cheng's words, because this place should be familiar to everyone who often surfs the Internet.

The Mariana Trench is a mysterious and terrifying place. It is the deepest place in the world. Its terrain is V-shaped. The deepest point is called Challenger Deep, with a depth of more than 10,000 meters. Even the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, can be easily placed in this seemingly bottomless abyss. In

such a deep place, people naturally think that there must be nothingness there, and it is impossible for life to exist.

However, after exploration, it was found that at a depth of more than 7,000 meters, there are actually a large number of lives living there, including many new species and strange creatures that people have never seen before.

The most bizarre thing is that there is a funnel-shaped hole deep in the Mariana Trench, and the seawater keeps pouring back into the depths of the earth through that hole.

"Could it be that the pouring seawater eventually enters that mysterious island?" I frowned, thinking that if the legendary island is really in the depths of the Mariana Trench, then it can explain why so few people have found the island after tens of thousands of years.

Because under more than 10,000 meters of water, any life on the ground can hardly resist the huge pressure, even some creatures living in the water can hardly resist the huge water pressure, even steel can be squeezed and deformed in an instant.

In such a terrifying and dangerous place, if it weren't for chance, who could have discovered the mysterious island?

And who could have imagined that the legendary Penglai Fairy Island actually existed at the deepest point of the terrifying Mariana Trench?

I took a deep breath, then looked at Zheng Cheng and asked, "Are you sure?"

Zheng Cheng nodded and said, "We compared the route map you drew with ours and found that everything is exactly the same. The place we are going to is the Mariana Trench!"

Zheng Cheng looked solemn when he said this. Seeing this, I asked, "Is the waters there dangerous?"

I have read a lot of popular science about the Mariana Trench on the Internet, and I know how dangerous it is, but the so-called danger only exists under the deep sea, and the sea surface is still relatively calm.

And our ship has a large tonnage, even if we encounter strong winds and waves, as long as the weather is not particularly extreme, it should not be a big problem.

At this time, Zheng Cheng shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about this problem, but... the waters where the Mariana Trench is located are very close to the territory of the island country, and the island country often patrols that waters. We didn't inform the island country when we went there. I'm worried... there may be misunderstandings, leading to some unnecessary friction!"

I frowned when I heard this. I hadn't considered this problem.

However, now that the human race is united, all countries have united to resist the invasion of the demon race. Even if our ships enter the waters of the island country, there should be no friction, right?

Zheng Cheng seemed to see through what I was thinking, and said solemnly: "That area of ​​water is very important to the island country. There have been many legends about the Mariana Trench in the island country. In the legend, many mythical figures in the island country came from the Mariana Trench. It can be said that it is a forbidden area for the island country. Moreover, research shows that it only takes one major earthquake to make the island country very likely to be completely drawn into the Mariana Trench, and the experts from the island country basically stay there for research all year round. If we go there rashly, it is very likely that we will not even have a chance to explain, and we will be targeted by the island country..."

"Is that so?" I pondered for a moment, then said, "I'll let Secretary Huang figure out a way then, so you don't have to worry about these things."

Hearing this, Zheng Cheng smiled, clinked his beer bottle with mine, and said, "Damn it, our ship is not a pushover. Qian Yu, let me tell you, our ship is equipped with nuclear weapons. If those bastards dare to make a move, I can just launch nuclear weapons and flatten the island country." Anyway, I will die by then, so let me talk back. When I get down there and see those martyrs, I can brag about them. And the island country is gone, who will speak for an extinct nation? "

I patted Zheng Cheng on the shoulder and said, "You have backbone, but peace is the most valuable thing in the current situation!"

Although I said so, if the island country really dares to take action, I don't mind making a big fuss in the island country.

At least, we have to settle the old accounts.

However, Zheng Cheng's words made my heart waver.

That is, many mythical creatures in the island country came out of the Mariana Trench.

"Could it be that...the creatures in the myths and legends of the island nation are all...the descendants of the Upper Three Families? Or, are the creatures in the deep sea, by chance, blessed by the Upper Three Families and thus became so powerful?"

Xu Fu went out to sea and established some kind of contract with the Upper Three Families. This kind of contract could not have been established by only Xu Fu and the Upper Three Families.

Since the Upper Three Families want to return to the human world, they must have made a lot of preparations.

Since they can't get out, they can create powerful creatures to walk in the human world on their behalf.

And I suspect that the gods worshipped by the island nation are actually...the spokespersons of the Upper Three Families in the human world.

"I hope my guess is wrong. If it is right, then the island nation...isn't it possible that it will suddenly turn against the war between humans and demons under the oracle?"

I took out the satellite phone and hesitated for a while, but finally suppressed the idea of ​​reporting it.

This is just my guess, there is no substantial evidence, and currently all countries are united to fight against the demons. If I send this inaccurate news back and cause the countries to split, and then it is confirmed that my news is false, then I will be a sinner of the human race.

"How long will it take us to sail to the destination?" I suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Zheng Cheng thought for a while and said, "If it is a straight distance, we only need half a month to arrive, but our ship has been modified and carries nuclear warheads and some heavy weapons, resulting in a slow sailing speed. It is estimated that... at least 20 days will be needed, and this is still sailing directly to the destination. If the route is changed halfway, it may be slower."

I nodded when I heard it. Now, a week has passed. During this time, we have already left the near sea and started sailing in the real deep sea.

Calculating the time, I estimated that it would arrive in half a month.

"It's still a little slow!" I murmured in my heart.
