How to Feed an Abyss! - Chapter 120

The aircraft slowly landed next to the No. 1 abyss.

Along with them, there is also a huge transport ship. As soon as Shi Yuan came down, he saw soldiers manipulating the transport robot, carefully transporting the “Seeker One” down.

It was already a year or two ago when Shi Yuan saw “Seeker 1” last time. At that time, it was quietly parked underground in the main city, people gave up on it, and it was impossible for it to go to space again.

After confirming the implementation of the “deep dive”, the alliance convened the practitioners of the former aerospace center, and after tedious verification, debugging and maintenance, it came to the center of the stage after years of snow.

I haven’t seen it for a long time, but this space frigate is still so beautiful, its silvery white glistens under the light. What awaits it is no longer the sea of ​​stars, but the deep abyss.

A team of doctors is waiting for the crowd.

Lu Tinghan and others have undergone many health checks, and yesterday and this morning, they also confirmed that they are in good health.

Before leaving, there is a final simple inspection to ensure nothing goes wrong.

The soldiers and engineers were busy adjusting the frigate, Shi Yuan drew blood, someone took his blood pressure, checked his facial features, body and limbs.

After 20 minutes, Shi Yuan got the inspection report and handed it to Lu Tinghan wagging his tail: “Look!”

Lu Tinghan took it over and glanced at him, then patted his head: “Well, it’s very healthy.”

Shi Yuan: “Wow!”

He is very happy. He wasn’t very strong, but he was always a soft and healthy little monster.

Except for Shi Yuan, everyone else needs to take inhibitors.

Shi Yuan watched the transparent liquid injected into the blood vessels, and several people put on special combat uniforms—a combination of military uniforms and space suits. The gray-white shape can adapt to low temperature and high heat, different pressures, and can resist some pollution.

Shi Yuan also got a set. His suit doesn’t need anti-infection, and it’s much lighter. The suit has been specially customized so that his tail can fit in it, and it can be swung around.

He began to study curiously, walked up and down, jumped up and down, got used to it, and then returned to Lu Tinghan’s side.

At the same time, the frigate is parked 2 kilometers away from the No. 1 abyss and is ready.

The door of the ship opened, and everyone boarded the ship one by one. The soldiers and doctors saluted and said goodbye to them. There is not much space in the cabin, Qi Hong sat in the front driver’s seat, and the other four sat behind him, fastening their full-body seat belts.

Subsequently, “Seeker One” slowly took off.

It’s a different feeling than flying a plane.

Shi Yuan didn’t know how to describe it, he just felt that the frigate was extremely light, and he regarded gravity as nothing, and floated into the air lightly. Flying through the atmosphere with its engines, it seemed that in the blink of an eye they had crossed the land and seen the abyss.

Abyss No. 1 is extremely dark, black mist is surging, the former abyss watcher is no longer there, and the gray-black watch tower is isolated in the distance.

Qi Hong stared straight ahead.

The alliance trained him and several others as pilots for the “Overview” project.

He is the most talented among them, and now his colleagues don’t know where they are, or they are sleeping in the cold ground, or they have given up the dream of starlight, but he finally sits on the frigate and starts a journey.

Abyss No. 1 is right in front of you.

There is no limit to the darkness.

Qi Hong took a deep breath and said, “Seeker 1, at 11 o’clock on October 27, 245, requested to implement the ‘Deep Dive’ plan!”

The command center replied: “I agree to execute. I wish you a safe journey.”

The frigate is hovering in the middle of the abyss, a round of scorching sun is in the sky, the wilderness is endless, the beautiful curved structure of the ship is shining in the sun, and the world below is a world that no one has ever set foot on.

Then, it slowly descends.

Black mist swamped its perfect streamlines, its thrusters and sensors, its gunboats and sentry sterns.

It is hidden in the abyss.

…

“Drip-drip-drip-“

“Drip-drip-drip-“

“Drip-drip-drip-“

There was a rhythmic sound coming from the sensor, and the signal fluctuated round and round, but nothing was detected. Altitude points to “-150

0m”.

There was no sound in the cabin.

The frigate is fully enclosed and has no portholes. The holographic projection reflects the outside scene on the wall, as if being there, allowing the driver to easily and intuitively see the outside, and also makes the darkness even more terrifying, ready to swallow everyone at any time.

No one knows what is in the abyss. The speed of the “Seeker 1” deep dive is very slow. It took more than an hour to walk the 15 kilometers. Fortunately, they did not encounter turbulent currents.

The only source of light comes from searchlights.

If this special searchlight is on the ground, it can easily penetrate tens or even hundreds of kilometers. Right now, more than a dozen searchlights are working together, and the light just flew a few meters before being wiped out by the rolling black mist.

“Drip-drip-drip-“

“Drip-drip-drip-“

The sound seems to be endless, and it is easy to make people sleepy.

While the others were engrossed, Shi Yuan turned his head to look outside the ship, shook the tip of his tail, and began to travel far and wide.

It was his first contact with other abysses like this, and he didn’t know if they could be called the same race.

After all, they couldn’t communicate, and they weren’t so sad that they deformed.

But just as he has a bond with the monster, every restless night, the soul and the blood gather and dance together. Shi Yuan guessed that he and these abysses should be like this too.

They all come from the same source, from a lonely distance.

“Drip-drip-drip-“

“Drip-drip-drip-“

Shi Yuan thought of the movie he and Lu Tinghan had watched.

There’s a movie about a submarine that’s submerged in the polar regions and headed for a certain trench. The bottom of the sea is so dark, the submarine proceeded cautiously with searchlights and radar, went to the bottom of the trench, and found a sunken city.

The city has been destroyed, and its magnificence can be seen vaguely. Fascinated, the divers wandered around the city, not noticing the approach of the monster in the trench.

In the end, the only survivor returned to the surface to tell the story to posterity. It’s a pity that no one can find the sunken city again.

From this point of view, the abyss is quite similar to the bottom of the sea, no wonder the project is named “Deep Dive”.

— there are even monsters.

I don’t know what lies under the No. 1 abyss, and whether there will be a mysterious kingdom.

Shi Yuan propped his head, thinking about it.

He was so fascinated, Lu Tinghan reached out and squeezed his palm, and asked in a low voice, “What are you thinking about?”

“It’s nothing.” Shi Yuan replied, “I’m either nervous, or just in a daze, just in a daze.”

Lu Tinghan smiled.

“Seeker 1” continued to descend, and after more than half an hour, they reached a negative altitude of 25 kilometers.

This is a very special node, almost a milestone.

This is the place where the alliance’s detectors and flying objects reach the deepest. After that, they all lost their communication signals and were torn apart by turbulent currents.

In other words, from here down, it is really a forbidden area that humans have never set foot in. They will completely lose contact with the command center and the ground, and they will be alone for the rest of the journey.

“…” Qi Hong took a deep breath, “Are you ready?”

Everyone answered. He slowly pushed down on the lever—

deep dive.

The pollution value on the screen climbed. And the notification light representing the communication channel changed from green to flashing yellow and then to red.

The voice of the dispatcher on the channel became smaller and smaller, as if swallowed by a cloud of shadows, it was dim and silent, only to hear them say: “Call Seeker No. 1, please answer if you receive it.”

“Call Seeker No. 1, please answer if you receive it.”

Academician Zhou Qian kept answering, the signal was interfered, and the command center couldn’t hear it anyway.

They still said: “Call Seeker No. 1, please answer if you receive it.”

“Call Seeker No. 1, please answer if you receive it.”

“Call Seeker No. 1, please answer if you receive it.”

“…Seeker One, can you… hear it?”

The indicator light goes off completely.

At the last moment, there seemed to be a sound in the channel: “…We are with you.”

The world is dead and silent.

Only the beeping sound of the detector is accompanied by left and right.

Negative altitude of 25 kilometers.

Negative altitude of 3 km.

Negative altitude 4 km.

deep dive.

To the bottom of the abyss, to the beginning of everything, to the depths of the nightmare, to the end of this century-long end.

deep dive.

Academician Ke Zhengrong felt unwell when he reached a negative altitude of 55 kilometers.

The instrument monitors everyone’s vital signs and sends out an alarm: Ke Zhengrong’s infection rate is rapidly increasing.

Both the frigate and the combat uniform have greatly reduced the infection value of the abyss. However, at this moment, the infection value outside the cabin exploded, reaching an astronomical figure. No matter how powerful the protection is, it can’t completely block it, and there is also a pollution index in the cabin.

Those who participated in the plan are all outstanding, and their resistance to pollution is far better than ordinary people.

The two academicians are not young anymore. It is really rare to have both knowledge and physique. However, adverse reactions still occurred.

Ke Zhengrong injected an inhibitor to suppress the infection rate.

This is a stopgap policy.

Assuming that the alliance’s speculation is correct, at the bottom of the abyss, the concentration of black mist and the infection value will decrease, enough for them to survive for several years.

The question is, I don’t know how far away from the bottom of the abyss, whether Ke Zhengrong can persist there.

At a negative altitude of 62 kilometers, Ke Zhengrong injected the inhibitor again.

The high doses of inhibitors had side effects, and he had a racing heart and shortness of breath.

“Take it easy.” Lu Tinghan told him, “Don’t inject any more unless it is absolutely necessary.”

Ke Zhengrong responded in a low voice.

Lu Tinghan stretched out his hand to check Ke Zhengrong’s body temperature, he felt hot and cold for a while, his condition was not very good, and his vital signs were fluctuating.

At this time, he could only resist, trusting the adaptability of the human body and Ke Zhengrong’s willpower.

Fortunately, at a negative altitude of 67 kilometers, Ke Zhengrong recovered a little bit, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

“Drip-drip-drip-“

“Drip-drip-drip-“

Negative altitude of 7 km.

Negative altitude of 75 kilometers.

Negative altitude of 8 km.

At a negative altitude of 81 kilometers, the sensor made a rapid “didi” sound.

A group of shadows flitted in the direction of 4 o’clock, which was unbelievably huge, like a mountain. And it has an astonishing speed, leaving the detection range of the sensor in 13 seconds.

Everyone held their breath.

They had known that there were monsters in the black mist, and they finally met them.

Lu Tinghan commanded the ship, turned its position, and continued to dive in another direction.

Then, different monsters passed by them again.

I don’t know if it was the frigate’s camouflage that played a role, or the monsters had no desire to attack, or Shi Yuan frightened them, so they were not attacked for the time being.

Shi Yuan looked around hard, but couldn’t see what the monster looked like. They pass by like ghosts, and occasionally under the searchlight, you can see dark green fish scales, long tentacles and a few distorted faces, and then disappear without a trace.

At a negative altitude of 11 kilometers, it exceeds the deepest trench on the planet.

Ke Zhengrong injected the inhibitor again to suppress the infection value.

Zhou Qian also began to feel slightly uncomfortable.

There are medical kits under the seats, but more medicine is stored in a later storage compartment. Lu Tinghan was in charge of directing and couldn’t walk away, so Zhou Qian wanted to get up by herself.

Shi Yuan said to her, “Let me go.”

He glanced at Lu Tinghan, who nodded at him. So he unbuckled his seat belt and tried his best to bring the big medicine box over. Zhou Qian picked out several medicines and shared them with Ke Zhengrong.

Shi Yuan put the medicine box back again.

The storage compartment was only three or four steps away from his seat, but the further he walked, the lighter his steps became.

Shi Yuan:?

He took another half step, and the whole person flew into the air.

Shi Yuan:? ? !

Not only him.

All objects fly upward, they are fixed,

Some remained motionless, while others floated several centimeters upwards.

Gravity seemed to disappear.

Holographic projections reveal the scenery outside. The light clusters of different shapes that looked like planets were dimly lit, floating around, slowly rotating and shining brightly, with little stars.

“What happened…” Qi Hong murmured, “What is going on…”

The surroundings are brightened, and the monster can see clearly. Schools of fish swim and giant beasts linger, and birds spread their beautiful wings. They stretch their bodies in the black mist of the abyss, each one is indescribable, but it seems to be walking through the starlight.

——In this way, it seems that this frigate has finally reached the universe.

A lively universe filled with strange creatures.

Shi Yuan floated lightly in mid-air.

It was the first time he had such a novel experience, he opened his hands and stretched his tail. There is no up, down, left, or right in the world anymore. He is next to the stars and walking in the Milky Way.

He said, “Wow!”
