MTL - Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine (Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start)-Chapter 5 into the water

The sudden change in the communication channel made Meng Lei feel a strong crisis.

In just a few minutes, hundreds of people were already out in the channel area where he was.

It is hard to imagine how many people will be buried in the endless abyss under the entire alien ice layer today, buried in this dead and dark icy seabed.

Such a cruel game mechanism forced Meng Lei to drive a submarine and leave the sea near the birth point as soon as possible.

Although it is still unclear whether the law of this threat mechanism exists, it is only aimed at the vicinity of the birth point, or has spread to the entire sea area.

But Meng Lei didn't dare to gamble.

If you win the bet, there is no benefit, and if you lose the bet, maybe your life will have to be explained here.

"Go! Hurry up, at least start the submarine first!"

Meng Lei took a deep breath, no longer hesitating, no longer delaying.

Calling up the control interface of the submarine, after a simple exploration, I quickly became familiar with the control mode of the submarine.

Fortunately, perhaps for the convenience of players, the operation of the submarine adopts a fool-like control, which is very convenient and does not require too complicated operations.

Forward and backward, up and down, all can be achieved through the buttons on the center console.

Then, Meng Lei didn't choose the direction deliberately, and drove the submarine straight ahead.

A slight roar sounded.

The submarine started slowly.

The dim light emitted by the pale searchlight illuminated the scene about twenty or thirty meters ahead.

The white flocculent organic matter was expelled by the water flow, like cotton wool flying in the air, and quickly swept away from the porthole to both sides.

However, in this dark and dead deep sea, apart from those white floating objects, nothing could be seen.

Outside the range of the searchlights, there is an endless darkness in all directions, hazy.

The light shines through the water waves, and there is no reference at all, just like being in an infinite void.

Not to mention alien sea monsters, not even a single swimming fish could be seen.

Such a scene made Meng Lei feel very bad.

Because under normal circumstances, no matter what the light hits, it will always get feedback from the reference object, making people feel at least a sense of existence.

But now, the submarine's searchlights do not shine any reflectors.

There is nothing but darkness around.

There is no way to tell what is waiting for you in the deepest depths of the darkness.

Humanity's fear of the unknown is the deepest fear.

Meng Lei finally realized this deeply.

The scene in front of him made him almost have a rhythm of deep-sea phobia.

Moreover, the sea area where he is located seems to be very barren, with no swimming fish and no aquatic plants. Everything is empty and looks extremely desolate.

Fortunately, after about ten minutes, the submarine gradually approached the seabed.

The light reflected on the beach, the real sense of existence made Meng Lei feel a lot more at ease.

However, the flat seabed was as dead as ever, covered with yellow sand and black reefs.

Apart from that, there is no trace of any living beings, just like a dead zone.

The only thing that made Meng Lei feel at ease was that the sea monsters encountered by other players did not seem to exist here.

After driving for more than ten minutes, the surrounding scenery did not change.

During this period, Meng Lei took the time to take a look at the regional communication channels and found that most of the people had already reacted from the panic and gradually started to set sail.

And the sea monster attack, as the player keeps leaving the spawn point, the frequency of occurrence is also greatly reduced.

The significance of the appearance of those sea monsters before seems to be just as the Black Pearl judged, simply to force the players to leave, and not to chase the end.

It was only at this time that the survivors finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their dangling hearts were temporarily relieved.

However, there was still a commotion in the communication channel.

The rest of the life did not make people feel the slightest joy, but caused a lot of panic.

At this moment, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter.

The people who were at a loss were suddenly alerted, this was no longer the world they were familiar with.

Everything has changed, and there are deadly murders lurking around!

If you can't adapt as soon as possible and master the rules of survival, I am afraid that the people who can reach the first outpost gathering place alive will never exceed one-fifth of the total number of people!

While driving the submarine, Meng Lei silently peeked at the screen.

After watching for a while, I found that the first round of crisis seemed to have been completely resolved, and there was no more valuable information to spy on, so I closed the communication channel.

After checking the sonar detection system repeatedly to confirm that there were no sea monsters nearby, Meng Lei gradually slowed down his progress and began to conceive his own plan for land reclamation.

Now, the key issues before him are food and fresh water.

Only if the basic conditions for survival are guaranteed, can he confidently and boldly search for supplies in this sea area and upgrade other facilities.

For food sources, you can use edible fiber and fresh water to make energy bars through the crafting station to satisfy your hunger.

Or catch small fish and make grilled fish to fill your stomach.

However, Meng Lei has lived in inland cities since he was a child, let alone fishing in the deep sea, he has never even been to the seaside, and has absolutely no experience in this area.

Before making fishing nets, it is not easy to eat grilled fish.

Therefore, the only option left to him is to make energy bars for the time being.

However, there is a prerequisite for making energy bars, that is, 100ml of fresh water is required.

In other words, before that, he had to make a fresh water extractor, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to eat energy bars.

"It seems that the foundation of everything has to start with the fresh water extractor, so my first goal now is to find 5 parts iron and 5 parts copper first."

"Or, just follow the prompts given by the system, find the old nest similar to the deep-sea swimming crab, and grab a few crabs to fill the stomach."

Meng Leiluo pondered and focused his eyes on the sonar display beside him.

After the life-threatening run just now, he was far away from the sea area where he was born.

In more than ten minutes, he drove the submarine for a distance of about two or three kilometers, and the sonar detection system could not detect the abnormal points just now.

It is obviously impossible to go back to the old den of swimming crabs.

However, with the voyage during this period, new abnormal points were refreshed on the three-dimensional virtual map.

It's just that the number is a bit rare, only three.

Meng Lei looked intently.

(The distance is 320 meters. There is a pile of iron ore with poor resources. Hurry up and grab it. If you miss this resource point, you will not know when you will encounter it next time.)

(At a distance of 445 meters, you are fortunate to find a piece of seagrass rooted in a barren zone. It has no special value in itself, but it is a natural breeding ground for some crustaceans. Look carefully and you may find a good discovery! )

(A distance of 478 meters, a storage box that flutters with the ocean current at no fixed point, lying quietly on the bottom of the sea, no one knows what is stored in it before opening it, maybe it is a pile of rotten junk, maybe it is precious weapons and ammunition , or it may be a scarce survival material, everything is unknown...)

This time, Meng Lei was indeed lucky.

There are no alien sea monsters in the three outliers, and all of them have exploration value.

In addition to iron ore, although the resource display of the other two abnormal points is not clear enough, in the early stage of land reclamation, even a pile of junk can still exert its residual heat.

Iron ore is a key material for making fresh water extractors, and it cannot be ignored in any case.

At the moment, Meng Lei didn't think much, just drove the submarine and headed straight for the nearest pile of iron ore.

After about five minutes, the three-dimensional virtual map showed that the submarine was only 40 meters away from the iron ore.

The abnormal point is marked at the entrance of a seafloor fissure diagonally in front of the submarine.

That narrow seafloor fissure is impossible to pass through with the size of the submarine, and there is a protruding reef terrain nearby, which makes it difficult for the submarine to approach.

At this time, it can only rely on artificial infiltration.

Meng Lei slowly parked the submarine above the reef forest, and then got up from the driver's seat.

Now that it's over, he no longer hesitates.

Coming to the cabinet at the entrance of the airlock, it took a long time to put on the diving suit.

Then, take the hand-held mining tool.

Including the diving knife and spear gun, Meng Lei also hung on his body.

Even if the sonar detection system did not mark the existence of dangerous creatures nearby, Meng Lei had to take precautions. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

Be careful to sail the ten thousand year ship, in this completely unknown alien deep sea, nothing can be taken lightly.

everything's ready.

Meng Lei took a deep breath, opened the door of the airlock, and stepped inside.

Following that, the rear hatch leading to the living cabin was instantly closed.

Press the button on the door again, and the gate on the outer wall of the submarine slowly opens.

Immediately, the dark and icy sea water poured in from the outside, completely submerging Meng Lei in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the huge pressure and the ferocious impact instantly made him stand unsteadily, and his feet were soft and he lay directly in the airlock room.

"Fuck!"

Meng Lei, who had no experience at all, suffered a big downfall the first time he entered the water.

Unpredictable, he only had time to utter a curse.

In the next moment, with the continuous influx of seawater, the unparalleled pressure instantly enveloped the whole body.

Meng Lei only felt as if he had jumped into a pressure cooker, his whole body was filled with a huge sense of oppression, and even the alveoli were compressed and burst open!

Fortunately, this feeling was only experienced for such a short moment.

When the oxygen system inside the diving suit starts working, the metal frame begins to resist the pressure of the deep water.

The suffocating feeling of oppression finally eased, and the only thing left was coldness and tension.

Meng Lei gasped violently, and held his hands on the edge of the outer wall of the submarine for a long time before finally readjusting his state.

Feeling the biting cold that gradually spread throughout his body, he shivered involuntarily.

After looking around for a while, he couldn't help cursing and said:

"This is the deep sea of ​​alien stars under two thousand meters of ice?! It's so cold!"
