the lord of all monsters

Chapter 163 Has God Abandoned the World?

The dark cloud that was cut in half by Tang Jiu gradually dispersed, and the bright moonlight fell on the ground, clearly illuminating the half-eaten tray.

"Where's my cake?"

There was a bit of sadness in Zhang Yu's wailing voice:

"That's the giant fruit mousse cake that took me a month to master!"

In the twilight of the two people's scrutiny, Zhang Yu opened Gensokyo and went in to find the thief who stole the cake, and he already had a goal in mind.

There are only a few people who can do this kind of thing...

After a while, Zhang Yu came out of Fantasy Township, holding a white hair dumpling in his hand.

"woooo~"

"Kangna fell asleep, and then, Kangna was hungry..."

Kang Na was put on the chair by Zhang Yu. Knowing that she had caused trouble, she didn't hide it. She just lowered her head, put her hands on her chest, and admitted her mistake in a low voice. When she spoke, there was still cake cream on the corner of her mouth.

"It's ok."

Tang Jiu lifted Kang Na with both hands, kissed the cream on the corner of her mouth, made a gesture of tasting, and said happily:

"I've already eaten the cake, it's very sweet!"

……

When everyone was celebrating Tang Jiu's birthday happily, three people were diving nervously in the Mariana Trench far southeast of Huaxia...

They are divers from the United States, and today they are going to challenge a world record.

"Live dive into the deepest trench on Earth."

It has been more than a year since the invasion of hell, and the United States has also recovered a lot of vitality.

Looking at the country on the other side of the ocean getting stronger every day, this is the former world hegemon, so naturally he is not reconciled to watching like this.

Now, starting a war is naturally impossible.

Not to mention the nuclear deterrence between the two countries, Zhang Yu alone has made them afraid to act rashly.

But being unable to use force does not mean that they are completely helpless.

To show the strength of one's own great power, to publicize how advanced one's technology is and how prosperous one's people are.

Then, just wait.

When the time comes, the people will naturally make a choice.

This set of methods, which they used on the huge red empire, worked very well, so they wanted to reproduce this tactic.

Curiosity is a human instinct.

Exploring the unknown is always an effective means of publicity.

The seabed, like deep space, is a place that is difficult for human footprints to set foot on.

Humans know very little about everything there, and this unknown is the most attractive.

Of course, the detection of the bottom of the Mariana Trench is not unknown before, and some image data have also been released.

But video data, how can it be more eye-catching than an immersive live broadcast?

This time, the U.S. government and the explorers who have explored the Mariana Trench three times cooperated to use the latest technology to build a world-class submarine equipped with underwater neutrino communication technology to complete this time. Task.

"Hold your breath."

Captain York, who has experienced three Mariana Trench expeditions, comforted the other two crew members and said in a deep voice.

He knows very well that what is truly terrifying in the 8000-meter-deep seabed is the fragile heart of human beings.

Under the water at a depth of 80 meters, it is difficult for sunlight to penetrate, and it is difficult for human vision to catch those faint rays of light.

At a depth of 200 meters, it will be plunged into complete darkness.

And they are first in a place below 8000 meters deep, where the sun will never be seen. The water pressure here is enough to press steel into a thin sheet.

It can be said that as long as there is a crack the size of a hair in the boat, the entire submarine will explode instantly under this strong water pressure.

This kind of dark environment, and the psychological pressure all the time, can drive a brave person completely crazy.

And if there is an operation error due to a mental disorder, what awaits the three of them will be inevitable death.

As for the big monsters in myths and legends, the huge deep sea monsters and so on.

Those were things that frightened children, and York would never believe them.

Science is everything.

Under such a large water pressure, how could any creature be able to maintain such a huge size.

Even if there is, in this [-]-meter-level deep sea, such a barren place, there is simply not enough food to maintain the consumption of such a huge body.

"Current depth: 9000 meters."

"Go on, dive slowly."

The assistant on York's left calmly reported the current depth figure. Compared with York, a guy who can personally challenge the world's deepest trench by himself, they are not idle people, but the most elite soldiers of the US submarine force.

It's just that the purpose is different, but these submarine forces have never dived to such a deep seabed.

In order to avoid making unnecessary noise, making the hull vibrate unexpectedly.

Only cameras are installed in the submarine, and the signal will be directly transmitted to the surface troops on the sea surface for a global live broadcast from time to time.

That's right, it is a global live broadcast from time to time.

In order to demonstrate its own scientific and technological strength, and to be absolutely sure, this time the United States deliberately did not use the usual practice of delaying the live broadcast for three to five minutes.

Looking at the barrage in the live broadcast room, the rear admiral in charge of the operation showed a satisfied smile.

"Is it already 9000 meters? Still nothing!"

"It's completely empty and dark. Is this what the deep sea looks like?"

"In the whole world, only the United States has the strength to dive so deep."

"..."

sensible!

Every time he sees the barrage that praises the United States, the rear admiral will feel a burst of joy. It seems that making America great again is just around the corner.

"???"

"Eh? What's going on here? Is it all over?"

"It hasn't arrived yet. The latest report says it's only 10000 meters deep. Isn't the deepest part of the Mariana Trench 11 meters?"

"Then what is this?"

Seeing a large number of question marks floating across the barrage, the Rear Admiral quickly turned his attention away from the barrage and looked at the screen.

Sure enough, a piece of blue-black land appeared in front of and below the submarine, and it seemed that it had indeed come to an end.

Take another look at the depth at this time, 10057 meters, there should be some distance from the real seabed.

How is this going?

Are they off course?

The Rear Admiral frowned thoughtfully.

In the deep sea where there is no reference, even with the assistance of various advanced instruments, it is easy to deviate from the course, which is normal.

But if it is impossible to reach the deepest seabed, the significance of this live broadcast will be greatly reduced.

It's just that now it seems that they don't know how much they have deviated, maybe they can only continue to make mistakes like this.

Just when the major general was thinking, he suddenly saw a violent shaking of the screen, and the transmitted screen was completely unclear.

Undercurrent?

How can there be such a strong undercurrent in such a deep seabed?
Undersea volcano eruption?

No, it has been explored beforehand, and there should be no active submarine fires in this area.

When the screen finally stabilized, the scene in front of him made the major general exclaim:

"God, have you given up on the world?"
