Chapter 1761 Weddell Fish
Landao City, Su family.

Su Weiguo’s request.

It made everyone in this family feel relieved.

After all, the old man hasn't slept these days.

Even the meals were force-fed by Su Mei.

It is not an exaggeration to describe Su Weiguo as a walking corpse these days.

This scared several people in the family.

"Xiaoyuan, why are you here?"

Su Weiguo after seeing Ye Yuan.

Asked with some surprise.

"Dad, you don't remember anything that happened before?"

Su Mei asked speechlessly.

"what's up?"

Su Weiguo looked up at his daughter and asked with some confusion.

"Do you remember when you returned home?"

Ye Yuan already had some guesses in his mind.

So I asked directly.

"Didn't I come back from get off work?
Then I felt very tired and took a nap.

Get up and you are here.

What's the matter that brings you to see me so late at night?"

Su Weiguo didn’t know what was wrong with these people?
Do you really think you are getting old and confused?

"Dad, don't scare me.

You have been resting at home for three days."

Su Mei said a little scared.

Then he looked at Ye Yuan.

"Can I talk to Professor Su alone?"

Ye Yuan looked at Su Mei and said.

Su Mei hesitated for a moment, then nodded and left.

"You are so mysterious.

And what does the three days Xiaomei just mentioned mean?
I'm not that old and confused yet, am I?"

Ye Yuan just smiled and waited for Professor Su to finish asking all his questions.

Then he told him what happened to him in the past few days.

"You are not fooling me, are you?
Don’t you young people celebrate April Fool’s Day?
Isn't today that festival?"

Su Weiguo asked with a look of disbelief.

He thought that Ye Yuan and his daughter were colluding to deceive him.

After all, this sounds too unbelievable.

This was something that a professor who believed in science only could not accept.

"Professor Su, if it's convenient, could you tell me what topic you and your assistant are researching recently?
I suspect that the death of your assistant and your strange illness are related to this project."

Ye Yuan was not in a hurry to deny anything.

Instead, he said it with a serious face.

For Ye Yuan.

Su Weiguo still knows a lot about it.

I know this person won't joke with me casually.

The occasional show of funny things is also based on a certain degree.

So after seeing Ye Yuan's serious expression.

Su Weiguo also realized that this problem was not as simple as he had imagined.

“There’s nothing that can’t be said.

The subject of our recent research is a newly discovered fish.

It is a new type of fish that resembles a tropical fish and was discovered by a scientific research vessel in the Weddell Sea not long ago.

We have tentatively named him Weddell fish."

When Su Weiguo talked about work, I immediately became interested.

"Wait, if I remember correctly, the Weddell Sea is in Antarctica, right? How can there be tropical fish there?"

Ye Yuan quickly stopped Su Weiguo from speaking.

After all, he is not some ocean rookie.

He is very familiar with several dangerous sea areas.

Weddell Sea, the southernmost sea in the Atlantic Ocean.

It penetrates deep into the coast of the Antarctic continent, forming a large concave bay.

The geographical coordinates of the center point are roughly 73° south latitude and 45° west longitude.

It is bordered by the Antarctic Peninsula to the south, Coats Land to the east, and the vast ice barrier in front of the Filchner and Ronne ice shelves in the far south.

The sea is often covered with thick ice, and in early summer, the sea ice in the Midwest drifts northward to nearly 60° south latitude.

The Weddell Sea is a cold sea, a terrifying sea, and an unpredictable sea.

It is also called the Magic Sea by many explorers in the world.

The ice floes and strong winds in the Weddell Sea are extremely powerful and can determine the fate of an entire ship.

In the Weddell Sea.

There has always been a saying that "When the south wind blows, the ship sails leisurely, but when the north wind blows, it flees to the ocean."

Large groups of drifting ice on the sea surface collide and squeeze with icebergs.

The sea surface was divided into pieces.

If the wind blows from the south, the icebergs disperse to the north.

Gaps will appear in the middle, and ships can sail through the gaps.

But if the north wind blows, the icebergs will gather together and surround the ships.

Vessels sailing in this sea area.

You never know when you might be hit by drifting ice.

Either the ship breaks down or it runs into a dead end.

Frozen forever in the Antarctic ice sea.

In 1914, an expedition ship named "Indira Gandhi".

They were swallowed up by the ice floes of the Weddell Sea and all the crew members were killed.

In the Weddell Sea, not only drifting ice and strong winds are deadly to humans.

Whales also pose a major threat to explorers.

In the turquoise waters of the Weddell Sea in summer.

Whales gather in groups and often spray water and play in the cracks of the ice floes.

Don't be fooled by their leisurely appearance, they are actually extremely ferocious.

The orca, in particular, is a terrifying whale that can devour any animal on the ice.

He is known as the "butcher" of the sea.

When it finds people or animals such as seals on the ice.

It will suddenly break through the ice from the sea, stick its head out and swallow you in one gulp.

Its long, pointed beak greedily devours seals and penguins.

Its ferocity is horrifying.

It is the presence of killer whales that makes it difficult for people trapped in the Weddell Sea to survive.

But even in such a dangerous sea.

There will still be many explorers and scientific research vessels from all over the world who will go there without hesitation.

The reason for this is that there are unknown secrets there.

And the stunningly beautiful scenery.

The gorgeous aurora and the unpredictable mirage.

This is another magic of the Weddell Sea.

Ships sailing in the Weddell Sea.

It's like floating in a dream world.

Its ever-changing natural wonders.

It makes people feel mysterious and frightening.

Sometimes the ship is sailing through the cracks in the ice.

Suddenly, steep ice walls appeared around the iceberg, as if the ship was surrounded by ice walls.

It blocked the way and seemed to be in a desperate situation, making people panic.

In an instant, the ice wall disappeared without a trace, saving the ship from danger.

Sometimes, the boat is clearly sailing in the water.

Suddenly it seemed as if we had reached the top of an iceberg.

Suddenly, the crew members were scared out of their wits.

And when the sunset turns the sea red.

Golden icebergs appeared before my eyes, reflected on the sea.

It seemed like it was coming towards the ship, giving people a false alarm.

Sailing in the Weddell Sea.

Nature shows its magic to people from time to time and teases them.

It keeps people in a state of fear and anxiety all the time.

After investigation, we found out that it was just a farce performed by nature.

It is this farce that has led countless ships astray.

Some even collided with real icebergs in their attempt to avoid imaginary icebergs.

Some were misled by the illusion and fell into a desperate situation surrounded by flowing ice.

Ye Yuan never expected this.

This is the topic that Professor Su and his colleagues are currently researching.

It turns out to be related to this mysterious sea.

and many more!

Scientific research vessel.

A subtle clue suddenly flashed through Ye Yuan's mind.

But I don’t know how to grasp it.

"Professor Su, did you know that a research vessel from our Blue Island recently had an accident in the open sea?

No one on board survived!"

Ye Yuan asked very seriously.

"Ah? When did it happen? Why didn't I hear any news about it?"

Su Weiguo was not shocked by the news Ye Yuan brought.

It stands to reason that this is such a big thing.

There's no way their research institute doesn't know about this?
You can think about what your daughter and Ye Yuan just said.

Could it be that I really have forgotten what happened in the past few days?

Resulting in loss of message?

Ye Yuan couldn't be sure at the moment.

The "tropical fish" studied by Professor Su was discovered by Xu Kai and his team.

So in order to prove my guess.

Ye Yuan took out his cell phone in front of Professor Su.

Called out.

There is nothing wrong in asking Xu Hang about this kind of thing.

I believe that guy must have more information than Professor Su and I.

Yu Qi asked Professor Su to find out.

Might as well just ask this guy directly.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

After the call was connected, Xu Hang's tired voice came from the other end:
"Xiaoyuan, what's the matter?"

"I want to ask you if you know about the recent accident on a research vessel of our Blue Island."

Ye Yuan didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Are you talking about the Xunzhen? How did you know about it?!"

Xu Hang was a little surprised.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Ye Yuan be indifferent to such things?
When did he start caring about this?

“I have a classmate on this ship.

I just attended his funeral this morning."

"What's your classmate's name?"

Xu Hang asked curiously.

"Xu Kai."

"wait!"

On the other end of the phone, there was the sound of Xu Hang flipping through papers.

With Ye Yuan's hearing ability, he could hear it clearly.

"Um!

Xu Kai, male.

Born: 1994.

Man.

Han nationality.

Graduated from the University of Marine Science and Technology in 20XX, majoring in marine science. ”

Xu Hang easily told some information about Xu Kai.

This made Ye Yuan even more certain.

Xu Hang must know about this.

So he looked at Su Weiguo.

He asked in a questioning tone:

"Does your friend work on the Xunzhen?"

"Yes! That's right, his name is Liu Minghui!"

Professor Su has a very loud voice.

Even Xu Hang on the other end of the phone heard it.

“Liu Minghui, male, Han nationality.

Born in 1970.

Currently in charge of marine biological research and testing on the Xunzhen. "

Xu Hang quickly provided some information about Liu Minghui.

"Xiaoyuan, why are you asking these questions?"

If Ye Yuan asked Xu Hang about Xu Kai.

Xu Hang could still understand.

After all, I attended a classmate's funeral, so it's reasonable for me to want to know some things about him.

But Liu Minghui has nothing to do with him at all.

Why is this guy so enthusiastic today?

"Nothing, what happened to you? You sound tired?"

Ye Yuan asked curiously.

He was also somewhat curious about Xu Hang's tired voice.

Does this guy have a girlfriend again?
Overworked?

Ye Yuan couldn't help but think evilly.

"I'm in Ushuaia right now. Dealing with the remains of the True Seeker crew.

We are also seeking the truth about the deaths of these crew members.”

Xu Hang had nothing to hide from Ye Yuan.

After all, this guy is half one of us.

There are some things that don't need to be avoided by him.

Xu Hang's words finally cleared up the doubts that had surrounded Ye Yuan for a day.

He was always in doubt.

Why did I attend the funeral but not see Xu Kai's body?

It turned out that all the bodies were still in Ushuaia and had not been brought back to the country.

"I understand. If the body is returned to China, can you let me see it if it's convenient?"

Ye Yuan said after hesitating for a while.

Logically speaking, Professor Su's assistant is the best subject for observation.

But after these days, I believe that person should have been cremated.

That's why Ye Yuan made such a request to Xu Hang.

"Why are you so mysterious today?
Did you discover anything?"

Xu Hang keenly discovered some clues in Ye Yuan's words.

So I asked directly.

"Well, I did make some discoveries. I'll tell you when you come back. This seems to be quite interesting! But you must be careful if you go to the sea area where the accident happened.

I suspect there is a creature out there that can devour human spiritual power!"

Ye Yuan didn't want to say too much.

After all, many things have not been confirmed.

Think about the nature of Xu Hang’s job.

Maybe he went to the sea area where the accident happened.

Once it is really as you imagined.

He didn't want to lose such a good tool friend so early.

"Okay! I got it, I'll be back as soon as possible!"

Xu Hang said solemnly.

He is no ordinary person.

For some mutant creatures in this world.

He has dealt with many people.

Now hear about Ye Yuan's size.

Of course Xu Hang would take it seriously.

Especially regarding mental strength.

This is an area he cannot afford to mess with.

If we talk about organisms that mutate, which one would be the most resistant to heat?
Then Xu Hang would definitely choose the one that has mental attack capabilities.

After all, this kind of attack is invisible and colorless, and it is impossible to defend against it.

No matter how high your military strength is.

They can also kill you silently.

Ye Yuan after hanging up the phone.

The expression is a little strange.

This is really such a coincidence.

Originally three people who had nothing in common.

It was because of a bizarre incident.

They were actually connected in series.

And Ye Yuan can be sure of it at this moment.

The one in Professor Su’s laboratory.

'Tropical fish' caught from Antarctica.

He should be the culprit of this incident.

I just don't know if that kind of fish food has the innate property of devouring spiritual power.

Or is this ability something that only comes about after mutation?

Everything will have to wait until Xu Hang returns.

However, this did not prevent Ye Yuan from going to the laboratory to investigate the fish first.

Unfortunately, all the energy of his laboratory has been focused on the research of the black-capped giant insect.

Currently, there is simply no manpower available to carry out in-depth development of this Weddell fish.

The most important point is.

Weddell fish was not the first to discover it.

And because it has no idea how many people have died.

Believe that once your guess is confirmed.

That follow-up work on Weddell fish.

It will definitely be taken over by Professor Nie and others.

In this way, I will have nothing to do.

But Ye Yuan will not give up.

Since Xu Kai's research vessel was able to catch a Weddell fish.

As long as it is not unique, believe in your own perception in the sea.

It's just a matter of time to catch it.

More importantly.

Even if Professor Nie and others take over.

I should be inseparable from myself.

Ye Yuan's self-confidence comes from his strong mental strength.

I've heard Jonah say that before.

Currently in China, there are people who can use mental power.

She is already considered the strongest.
