From seeing it

Not only has the number of elite teams protecting their scientific expedition team increased, but their equipment has also become better.

Xiao Ling saw some heavy weapons, including the powerful Barrett sniper rifle, and even the M72E series 84mm rocket launcher, even if the blue whale, the largest creature in the ocean, came, he could hunt it down.

After Xiao Ling understood it, he finally understood why Zhou Kesheng was full of confidence before he set off, thinking that the journey to Guixu would not be too dangerous.

Because they made complete preparations in advance this time, Sun Tao is confident that he can deal with any danger.

Although the "Explorer" sailed into an unknown sea, fortunately, Captain Cao Zhiren didn't find out what he was worried about. The rest of the journey was safe, and only encountered a relatively brief rainstorm, which was not a dangerous tsunami. At night, the distant sea suddenly became foggy.

Xiao Ling was chatting with Zhou Kesheng in his room. Zhou Kesheng was making coffee when Captain Cao Zhiren knocked on the door suddenly, saying that he had something to report.

After Zhou Kesheng let him in, Cao Zhiren reported with an excited expression on his face. According to the somewhat worn-out hand-painted nautical chart Zhou Kesheng gave him, they will soon approach the ruins marked on the map.

"Oh?" Zhou Kesheng's expression moved slightly, he put down the coffee cup in his hand, and said, "Come on, let's go out and have a look."

Xiao Ling walked out together with him and Captain Cao Zhiren.

"It's foggy, and the fog is very thick." Jiang Hongtao, the first officer of the "Explorer", was also on the side, and hurriedly walked over to report.

In just a short time, fog rose from the sea ahead, completely covering the distant sea area. The searchlights fired by the "Explorer" shot into the sea fog, and the light was blocked. From a distance, it was foggy and the visibility was very low. This is very dangerous for ships sailing at sea.

"Are you sure the front is Guixu?" Zhou Kesheng looked at Captain Cao Zhiren.

Cao Zhiren nodded and said, "Old Zhou, we won't make mistakes."

Zhou Kesheng nodded. Cao Zhiren is an old captain with rich experience. I believe he will not admit his mistake. He turned his head to look at the first officer Jiang Hongtao who was standing aside and said, "Go and inform Professor Li Zhibao and them."

"Yes." The first officer turned and entered the cabin.

Zhou Kesheng picked up the binoculars and looked into the thick fog facing him from a distance.

Standing beside him, Xiao Ling felt that the mist was very thick and spread extremely fast, and soon there was water mist floating on the deck. In the night, this kind of situation was not only rare, but also had a hint of danger.

Xiao Ling had developed an instinctive vigilance against danger, and he felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't see the big pale hand, so he didn't know if there would be danger.

"There's something wrong with this situation, Captain Cao, have you encountered such sea fog before?" Xiao Ling felt ominous in his heart, and hurriedly asked Cao Zhiren, if this kind of sea fog is common, then it should be nothing unusual.

"Mr. Xiao, sea fog is not uncommon, but something like tonight's is very rare, at least I haven't encountered it..."

Cao Zhiren replied very politely. Although Xiao Ling was young, he saw that Xiao Ling had been with Zhou Kesheng these days, and Zhou Kesheng was also very polite to Xiao Ling. Cao Zhiren saw it and guessed that Xiao Ling should be a big shot, and he did not treat Xiao Ling's inquiry well. Dare to neglect.

In the cabin, Professor Li Zhibao, Hu Shengzhe, Wang Lei, Yu Tingting, Pang Yan, Wang Haiyang, Guo Zhenwei and Sun Tao came out one after another.

After them, Qin Yang came out with a few team members and guarded the surrounding area.

On the deck, there was fog. After a while, everyone's vision was severely blocked, and they could only see the faces of people three or four meters away. If they were farther away, it would become foggy.

"Mr. Zhou, do you want to stop the boat first?" Cao Zhiren saw that the fog was getting bigger and bigger, and his face was very disturbed.

Zhou Kesheng frowned and asked Cao Zhiren. After confirming again that the road ahead was Guixu marked on the map, he shook his head and said, "You don't need to stop completely, slow down, just move forward slowly."

Cao Zhiren could only obey his orders.

"Mr. Li, Guixu is ahead." Zhou Kesheng handed the telescope in his hand to Professor Li Zhibao.

Hearing that the front is the legendary Guixu, everyone showed serious expressions on their faces.

Sun Tao summoned all the team members, everyone was fully armed, loaded with live ammunition, and set up defenses around them.

The surrounding fog was thick, and all the headlights on the bow of the "Explorer" were turned on, shining far into the oncoming thick fog. Everyone boarded the bow, looking far away, hoping to find something.

While looking around, Xiao Ling looked up at the sky from time to time, in case there would be a big pale hand appearing.

As the "Explorer" slowly moved in, the fog became thicker and thicker. Under the shroud of fog, the surroundings were surrounded by darkness, and it seemed very silent. There was no sound of wind, nor the sound of waves beating the hull.

"Look, what is that?" Suddenly, Xiao Ling stretched out his hand and pointed towards the thick fog in the distance.

Xiao Ling's current physical strength is several times that of ordinary people, and his eyesight has also been strengthened. He can see farther and more clearly than ordinary people. He was the first to notice the bright light appearing in the dense fog.

After hearing Xiao Ling's words, the others all looked in the direction he pointed, but they couldn't see anything. Zhou Kesheng hurriedly picked up the binoculars.

"Huh? A lot of luminous bodies? What are those?" Zhou Kesheng frowned.

The "Explorer" did not stop, and was still slowly driving into the dense fog, entering the area marked on the hand-painted nautical map that belonged to the Guixu.

Soon, other people also discovered that in the thick fog in the distance, luminous bodies appeared one by one. These luminous bodies, flickering in and out of the dense fog, are very magical, gathered together, appearing shimmering Scales, it is a spectacle.

"What are those luminous objects?" Pang Yan was curious and hurriedly picked up the camera, trying to capture this scene.

Guo Zhenwei, a marine biologist among the crowd, said, "If my guess is correct, groups of lampeye fish should gather there."

"Light Eye Fish?" Pang Yan looked at Guo Zhenwei, and it was the first time Xiao Ling heard this name.

"Yes." Guo Zhenwei nodded and said, "This lampeye fish is also called flash fish. There are two lamps under the eyelids, which can emit bright light. Speaking of which, this is a very rare fish species."

Pang Yan asked curiously, "Why does this lampeye fish glow?"

Guo Zhenwei smiled slightly and said: "The light source of this lampeye fish is actually hundreds of millions of bacteria that grow on its head. These bacteria rely on the nutrients and oxygen in the fish blood to survive. can continue to shine.”

"It was regarded as a kind of god fish a long time ago, and it is still a relatively rare fish even now. I am a little surprised that there are so many lampeye fish gathered here."
