People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

This was obviously not possible with the tools available on board.

It is possible to simply apply the Parasite on the surface of the diving bell, but that is just a superficial effort. It will be quickly washed away once it enters the water. Even if some of it remains at the end, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Don't waste precious materials and not have them have any effect.

"We have to think of a way, otherwise if we go down further we will probably attract things from the seabed." Chen Ziyan said with a frown.

He knew what Shirley Yang meant, but if this problem was not solved, it would be difficult for them to continue the exploration.

This time only one strange fish appeared, which was considered lucky, but we may not be so lucky next time.

If a monster like a giant octopus appears, it will be difficult to escape.

"Master Chen, didn't that thing attack you just now?"

Just then, Hu Bayi suddenly asked.

He accidentally discovered that there were no signs of attack on the surface of the diving bell that Chen Ziyan was riding in, which surprised him a little.

Logically speaking, they were both riding in the same vehicle, so it didn't make sense for the strange fish to just stop after he escaped?
After returning to the boat and calming down, Hu Bayi probably figured out that it was the searchlight that caused it, so he was very confused as to why Chen Ziyan was not attacked.

It’s not because I have any qualms about being treated differently, but I feel this could be a breakthrough point.

"No, after seeing you come up, the fish swam back to the trench." Chen Ziyan shook his head slightly.

After saying this, he also began to think.

He had thought about this question when he was underwater just now, but the situation at the time did not allow for distraction, so he did not explore it in depth.

Now hearing Hu Bayi mention it again, Chen Ziyan also remembered his previous doubts. He silently recalled the experience just now, trying to find out what was special.

If we can make some discoveries, maybe we can use them to solve the problem and avoid being harassed by giant sea creatures next time we go into the water.

"The problem should not be with the diving bell." After Shirley Yang understood the meaning of Hu Bayi's words, she was the first to set the tone.

She was there when the diving bell was inspected, and she might even have been the one in charge of this matter, so she was certain that the problem was not with the vehicle.

Hearing this, the eyes of the people around began to wander around Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi.

Since there is no problem with the diving bell as a vehicle, the problem can only be with the people.

Finally, everyone, including Hu Bayi, slowly fixed their eyes on Chen Ziyan.

Compared to Hu Bayi who was attacked, Chen Ziyan, who was unharmed in every way, was more suspicious.

Chen Ziyan: “…”

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he was a little unsure whether the problem was really with him.

The reason for this suspicion is that such passive capabilities are difficult to detect actively and often require field verification.

As for Chen Ziyan, he had no doubt about his own bloodline and directly locked the suspicion on the Xianbao spirit fish.

This was because the recent trip to the underwater tomb had proved that his bloodline could not intimidate sea creatures, otherwise the sea monkeys and the forbidden women would not have attacked him.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan felt more and more that it was because of the Xianbao spirit fish.

"How about I go down and try again?" he said after thinking for a while.

If it is really because of the Xianbao Lingyu, then it cannot be confirmed by analysis here. It is better to go down again and let the facts speak for themselves.

There is no need for a third attempt. This time, Chen Ziyan plans to go deeper and enter the trench to take a look. If he is not attacked here, he can basically confirm his guess.

It just so happened that he suspected that the Mary Sena was sinking in it, so he confirmed it as well.

After hearing Chen Ziyan's proposal, everyone fell into deep thought.

They also know that this may be the most direct way, but the problem is that doing so carries considerable risks.

It would be fine if the problem really lies with Chen Ziyan, but if not, then what is the difference between doing this and sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

After a while, seeing that no one said anything, Chen Ziyan made a decision directly: "That's it, I'll go down again."

He knew what the others were worried about, so he directly used his authority as team leader.

"Then try again. Master Chen, please be careful. Speak immediately if anything happens." Hu Bayi did not remain silent any longer.

This seems to be the best approach at the moment.

Then Chen Ziyan entered the diving bell again, and when everything was ready, he entered the sea again.

Because he had had this experience before, he quickly returned to his previous position this time.

After observing the surrounding situation and seeing that everything was calm, Chen Ziyan did not stay here. He remotely commanded the other people on the ship through the walkie-talkie and began to use the crane to move towards the direction of the trench.

Fortunately, the crane model they installed was very new and could be extended to a sufficient length, otherwise they would have to move the ship in order to successfully reach the top of the trench.

But to Chen Ziyan's disappointment, after he actually sank into the trench, he discovered that this was not as deep as he had expected.

It seemed bottomless before, but that was only because of the angle. Plus, it was difficult to see on the seabed and he could only see with the help of a searchlight, so he had the illusion that this was a trench.

In fact, this is just a trough. Although it is more than ten meters deep, it is obviously not as deep as a ravine.

Just as Chen Ziyan was looking around the trough, trying to make his trip worthwhile, Hu Bayi's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"Mr. Chen, how is it over there?" "It's very safe, but I didn't gain anything." Chen Ziyan answered truthfully.

The trough was not empty, but there were only some seabed animals and plants, and nothing they were looking for.

As for the Mary Sena shipwreck, there was not even a trace of it.

In fact, Chen Ziyan had guessed this after discovering the depth of the trough.

After all, the depth of this trough is not enough to accommodate an ocean-going shipwreck.

"There are new discoveries up there. Chen Ziyan, why don't you come back first?"

"what happened?"

Hearing this, Chen Ziyan frowned instantly.

He knew that if it was just a small matter, Hu Bayi would not let him go back.

"A strange island appeared in the distance." Hu Bayi said, "This island appeared very abruptly. We are a little unsure what to do."

"Strange island? Don't act rashly. Wait until I go up." Upon hearing this, Chen Ziyan said immediately.

In such a deep sea, he would not underestimate any abnormality, let alone an island that suddenly appeared.

Didn’t you hear Hu Bayi just say that the strange island appeared suddenly?

"Okay." Hu Bayi was waiting for him to say this and agreed immediately.

A moment later, Chen Ziyan returned to the boat and looked into the distance through a telescope. He saw a dark island at the point where the searchlight landed.

This is an island shaped like a large reef. It is completely black, giving it a very strange look.

But this is not the strangest thing. What is really puzzling is that the island actually appeared at the stern of the ship.

You have to know that when Chen Ziyan and his team were on the route, they were always paying attention to the surrounding situation. If this island existed before, it would be impossible for them not to have discovered it.

But knowing this, Chen Ziyan also understood why Hu Bayi said that this island appeared suddenly.

It appeared out of nowhere on the road and was completely worthy of the word "abrupt".

After observing for a while, Chen Ziyan asked, "What do you think?"

All need to be verified. The way this island appears alone is enough to prove that there is something wrong.

What he was asking was how to deal with it, whether to find a way to explore it or just leave it alone.

"I've heard before that an island that suddenly appears in the sea could be the back of a big fish or the shell of a giant turtle. How about we use the sea-shaking cannon to test it first?" Hu Bayi said after thinking for a while.

If the black island behind is really a sea monster, it is better not to approach it easily.

"Okay, let's try it first." Chen Ziyan naturally had no objection to this.

Although the Trident is a ghost ship, in its physical form it is difficult to contend with a sea beast of this size.

Seeing that Chen Ziyan agreed, Hu Bayi immediately walked towards the sea-shaking cannon. Not long after, with a cannon shot, a cannonball fell on the black island in the distance.

boom--

As a cloud of dust rose, Chen Ziyan instantly had the answer in his mind.

This black island is definitely not a sea monster.

Because he clearly saw through the telescope that when the shells fell, not only did the island not move at all, but there was also rubble falling off it.

“Could it be a ghost island?”

At this moment, Duo Ling, who had been silent, spoke weakly.

"Black whale?" Chen Ziyan looked at her and asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

"An old man who came here before said that there is a strange phenomenon in the coral spiral. Reefs will suddenly float out of the sea. This situation is generally called 'black whale'." Duoling explained in a low voice.

"Isn't this the Ghost Island?" Wang Kaixuan said suddenly.

This is not just a rumor about Coral Temple Island. In fact, there are similar rumors in many places, but the names are different.

After listening to Duoling's explanation, Chen Ziyan understood what she wanted to express.

After thinking about it carefully, I found that this is indeed possible. Although there is no obvious sign of low tide, the Coral Spiral is a place with strange things everywhere, so it is not too difficult to accept that reefs suddenly emerge from the sea.

"Master Chen, it looks like that is a rocky island. Do you want to send a small boat over there to take a look?" Hu Bayi said as he walked back.

The small boat he was talking about was the ship's lifeboat. This rubber kayak is heavy enough that it is not afraid of underwater reefs, so it can be used to reach rocky islands.

"Let's just forget it." Chen Ziyan was somewhat tempted.

Although this reef island looks obvious at a glance, there may be some secrets hidden on it. But after thinking about it, I gave up this idea.

They are now very close to the destination of this trip, so there is no need to create unnecessary trouble. Who knows if there is any danger on this reef island.

Although Hu Bayi felt it was a pity, he did not insist. He just put forward his own suggestions.

Whether it will be adopted or not depends on the team leader Chen Ziyan. (End of this chapter)
