Chapter 484 Shadows Under the Sea
"How could there be such a large reef, not to mention that it is not the first time we have salvaged this sea area. If there is such a dangerous obstacle as a reef, the radar on the nautical chart should have already made a display to change the course. !"
Hearing the old sailor's speculation, other sailors first expressed different opinions.
In modern society, although hidden reefs still pose a certain degree of threat to ship navigation, they are far less deadly than in the Middle Ages.
Especially the waters of the North Atlantic Ocean, as one of the world's important fishing grounds, have been explored all over by major fishing boats, and even if there are dangers such as hidden reefs, they have already been marked clearly. It will automatically avoid this dangerous area.
Therefore, the old sailor's guess was obviously not accurate.
"If it's not the reef, what is it that stopped the fishing boats?"
Facing the rebuttal, the old sailor immediately asked back.
Although he is an old man on the Ocean Quebec, he still has too little knowledge compared to the vast sea.
"OMG, guys, come and see, the bottom of the sea, there seems to be something in the bottom of the sea!"
At this moment, a daring sailor approached the side of the ship and exclaimed when he saw the scene under the fishing boat.
Hearing the sailor's voice, for some reason, the old sailor's heart tightened unconsciously, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly emerged in his heart.
On the deck, the old sailor came to the side of the ship with three steps and two steps, and looked down in the direction the sailor pointed.
I saw the place where the Ocean Quebec was staying, under the blue sea, a huge and dark shadow was reflected in the old sailor's muddy and dark blue pupils.The shadow that appeared on the bottom of the sea was so huge that even the Ocean Quebec only occupied an extremely small part of the shadow, and more shadows were still hidden under the sea.
"This, what is this?!"
Not only the old sailors, but other sailors of the Ocean Quebec also saw the huge shadow under the sea.
They all exclaimed when they saw this bottomless shadow and the rock-like existences rising and falling like mountains and peaks presented through the blue sea water.
"What the hell is this!"
"Could it be a submarine volcano!"
"Impossible, how could there be a submarine volcano in this place."
"It's not a volcano, so what exactly is this shadow!"
Just as the sailors of the Ocean Quebec were arguing to relieve the uneasiness in their hearts, the pupils of the old sailor staring at the huge shadow suddenly shrank.
"Have you noticed that the shadow seems to be moving."
At this moment, a sharp-eyed sailor noticed that the huge shadow under the Ocean Quebec was not staying there motionless, on the contrary it was slowly moving at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Damn it, it's true, I saw it too."
As someone reminded, more sailors took notice.
Amidst the exclamation of everyone on the side of the ship, the old sailor unconsciously took a few steps back, concealing his inner uneasiness.
"Be careful, this shadow may..."
On the deck, the old sailor stepped back all the way to the side of the cabin, and when his footsteps touched the deck, he shouted to the sailors who were still standing on the side of the ship, arguing with each other as if awakened from a dream.
Bang!
boom--
However, it is obvious that the old sailor's reminder was a little late. Before he could finish his words, the originally calm sea under the Ocean Quebec suddenly stirred up waves. Under the huge waves, the Ocean Quebec seemed like a leaf Flat boats are generally defenseless.
On the ship, the sailors swayed and fell on the hard deck because of the huge waves.
Many sailors were knocked to the ground, but many sailors got up and crawled towards the cabin under the urging of their survival instincts.
As sailors who live at sea, they are well aware of how dangerous the violent sea is, although they don't know why the sea, which had been calm before, suddenly became so violent.However, the situation in front of them is no longer what they can think about. At this moment, what the sailors of the Ocean Quebec think about is how to survive in the rough sea in front of them.
"Damn it, this is my place!"
"Get out of the way, let me in..."
"Bastard, you group of disloyal guys actually left me alone."
"Son of a bitch, what kind of evil did I encounter when I went to sea this time, and I encountered everything."
"Perhaps, I should listen to my wife and find a job on land."
Scrambling to squeeze into the crowded cabin, the terrified noise of the sailors mixed with the strong fishy smell made the whole scene look like an alternative hell.
"..."
However, a few minutes passed, the expected big waves did not hit, and the Ocean Quebec fell into a strange calm.
"Do you find it strange?"
Squeezed into the innermost part of the cabin like sardine cans, the old sailor endured the strong smell of fish and sailor body odor around him, but the expression on his face was not at all relaxed.
The voice of the old sailor was not clear in the noisy cabin, but several sailors who were closer to him heard his voice, and among them was the sailor who was boldly approaching the side of the ship before.
"What's weird?"
"Ocean Quebec didn't shake at all."
In the cabin, the old sailor felt the situation of the Ocean Quebec under him, and the uneasiness in his heart continued to emerge.
When a fishing boat is sailing on the sea, even in the calmest sea, there will be shaking. However, at this moment, the old sailor did not feel the slightest shaking from the Ocean Quebec, as if the Ocean Quebec was not floating in the sea but landed on on hard land.
Hearing the reminder from the old sailor, the expressions of the sailors around him changed immediately.
They turned their heads and tried to look around, but the crowded environment of the cabin made it difficult for them to move and even drew curses from the people around them.
"Perhaps it was just a change in the walrus just now."
After hiding in the crowded cabin for more than ten minutes, noticing that the Quebec Ocean was still calm, some sailors crowded in the cabin began to change their minds.
After all, it's not a pleasure to have so many people crammed into a narrow cabin, especially because of the sailor's habits, many people don't have the habit of taking a bath at all. Many foul smells are mixed together, and soon some people I can't take it anymore. There are many sailors who were injured by the shaking on the deck before. They didn't care about their injuries because of the crisis. Now they find that the situation is different from what they thought before. Those wounds on their bodies that were originally ignored Immediately it started to hurt.
"I'm bleeding and I need a bandage."
"My legs, my legs."
Clutching their animals, some sailors huddled close to the entrance of the cabin were the first to get rid of this crowded environment. They came to the deck to take a deep breath of fresh air.
"OMG!"
However, soon, they saw a scene that they will never forget.
As the old sailor guessed, the Ocean Quebec didn't stay on the sea, and of course it didn't stop on land either.
On the vast sea before, a huge and ferocious tortoise-like head that could not reach the end was floating tens of meters away from the Ocean Quebec, and the location of the Ocean Quebec at this moment was impressively covered by this turtle. On the spiky carapace.
Previously, what the sailors saw on the surface of the water, the suspected mountain-like objects were just spikes on the turtle shell.
And the Quebec Oceangoing, an ocean-going fishing boat of tens of tons, is sandwiched between the peak-like spikes of the turtle shell, which actually gives people an extraordinarily small feeling.
……
"Hey Tony, did you hear that?"
Inside the Avengers Building, Banner scanned the latest reports scrolling on the virtual screen in front of him.
Turning his head to look at Tony, his eyes paused for a moment on the pile of coffee around him, and then he said, "The Kaitou Kidd has appeared again."
"..."
On the opposite side, hearing Banner's voice, Tony was silent for a few seconds before he came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, and he replied belatedly: "What, what are you talking about, Banner?"
"It's nothing."
Seeing Tony's dire situation in front of him, Banner immediately put away the topic about Kidd the Phantom Thief. He frowned and looked at the other party's tired appearance, and couldn't help saying: "How long have you not rested, Tony."
"Five days or a week, I don't remember."
Hearing Banner's question, Tony showed a thoughtful expression on his face, but soon changed back to his previous appearance and asked Banner, "Compared to these, what did you want to tell me just now, doctor?"
"You should rest, Tony."
Without answering Tony's question, Banner looked at Tony, who was in a very bad situation, with a slightly more worried expression on his face.
Because of Hulk's relationship, Banner's physical strength is far superior to ordinary people, and it is precisely because of this reason that he ignores that Tony without the steel suit is just an ordinary person. Such high-intensity research, obviously Consuming Tony's energy.
"I'm doing fine."
Facing Banner's persuasion, Tony showed his stubborn side.
"In fact, I have already perfected the plan. As long as I arrange the Ultron test again, I will be able to get accurate data results."
"Perhaps Dr. Banner is right, Mister Stark."
A blue light flashed in his eyes, Ultron scanned Tony's body, and at the same time he spoke with his gentle and rational voice to persuade him.
"Your body is on the verge of a critical point. What you need to do most at this time is to get a good night's sleep."
"We're running out of time."
Banner and Ultron's persuasion caused Tony's irritability accumulated due to long hours of work to explode, and he replied with a grumpy face: "If you can't complete all the preparations before [Holy Lord] , maybe we don't even have the chance to resist, we don't know anything about the power of the [Holy Lord], but I believe it will definitely be more terrifying than imagined."
"Even if [Holy Lord] attacks New York tomorrow, you need to rest now, Tony."
Banner is naturally aware of Tony's inner worries, but he is even more aware that if Tony doesn't take a good rest right now, he may fall before the [Holy Lord] strikes.
"I am aware of my situation, so I can hold on for a while longer."
Without thinking about it, he rejected Banner's proposal, and Tony turned his tired body and devoted himself to his research experiment again.
"I didn't want to do it, Tony, you made me do it."
Seeing Tony's stubborn appearance, Banner sighed helplessly, then raised his head and shouted to Jarvis in the laboratory.
"Jarvis, put me through to Pepper."
"Yes, Dr. Banner."
"Jarvis, stop..."
Hearing Banner's words, the expression on Tony's face changed suddenly. He turned his head to look at Banner behind him and opened his mouth to stop Jarvis.
However, Jarvis's excellent processing system allows it to respond as soon as it receives an order.
"Tony?"
"Hi, Pepper..."
For the first time ever, Tony regretted taking Jarvis so high.
……
"This is the Canadian Coast Guard, please report the sea area you are currently in and the situation you have encountered?"
Canada, Canadian Coast Guard Headquarters.
The telephone operator picked up the phone and made inquiries in a professional manner.
"Turtle, no, monster, we have encountered a huge sea monster, come and rescue us!"
After connecting the phone, a panicked and frightened voice came from the other side, asking for help incoherently.
"Kraken, I'm sorry, sir, please don't make such jokes about the Coast Guard. If you are doing this, we may pursue legal responsibility against you for disturbing the public order."
It is not an easy job to be an operator at the Canadian Coast Guard Headquarters, especially when all kinds of people are mixed at sea, and there are often sailors who have been drifting at sea for too long deliberately sending out pranks for help.
"I'm not lying, damn it, we really encountered a huge sea monster, and now our ocean-going fishing boat, the Quebec Ocean, is on the back of this sea monster!"
The operator's response obviously made the captain of the Ocean Quebec calling for help flustered again. He gritted his teeth and looked at the ocean-going fishing boat following the monster with fearful eyes, while calling for help in a trembling voice.
"Come and save us, we need help, please."
"Sir, please don't say any more, everything you said has been recorded, and the Canadian Coast Guard will retain legal proceedings against you."
"Damn it, you son of a bitch, everything I said was true!"
"The monster, it's really a huge turtle, we need to restore..."
Seeing that his pleading for help was taken as a prank by the operator at the Canadian Coast Guard Headquarters, the captain's pleading tone suddenly became a little exasperated.
