Chapter 463: Into the water

"Prepare to let the Infinite into the water!"

At this moment, all the members of the Infinite stood on the material platform of the submarine base, looking at this armed train that had undergone full modification, their expressions varied. This train was now covered with a layer of high-energy structural metal, forged together as a whole, like a slender, segmented submarine. The sides of the carriage windows were even specially designed with multi-layered composite pressure-resistant portholes—Stardust Crystal glass, which could withstand the extreme environment of 300 atmospheres.

The purpose behind Lin Lin Xian and Lu Lu Xingchen designing these portholes was not out of some morbid curiosity for sightseeing, but rather to facilitate the use of their abilities in response to deep-sea conditions.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The members of the Falcon Sea Group, who were moving supplies to the submarine on the deep-water port platform, suddenly all stopped their movements, turned around, and looked up at a surprising scene. They saw a very special giant train floating in the air, slowly arriving above the deep-water port.

The next moment, with the cooperation of Kiki and Long Long Zhijie, the searchlights of the Infinite's train head split the turbid black seawater, plunging into the boiling black abyss like a steel behemoth.

"Alright."

"Lin Lin Xian." Chen Chen Sixuan stood by the port, preparing to board the train. At this time, she looked at Lin Lin Xian and said: "Once that geothermal well is detonated, this island might sink. We must leave a certain range."

"I know." Lin Lin Xian checked the time and swept his gaze over everyone: "Everyone board the train first. I'll take Viola to set things up. It should be less than an hour before dark. We only have one chance."

"I'll go with you!" Hearing Lin Lin Xian's words, Kiki immediately flew over: "I can save you a lot of time by helping you."

"Good."

"Lin." At this time, Ryan stood at the cabin entrance of the Deep-Abyss-class nuclear submarine and shouted to Lin Lin Xian: "I think the pre-set bait torpedoes are unnecessary. My idea is to cancel the path launch and act according to circumstances. What do you think?"

"Can do." Lin Lin Xian nodded, his eyes flickering: "If these things can still work."

Garan Volcano eruption, sea monsters gathering—under such circumstances, the sporadic fire of bait torpedoes might not be able to play the role of luring the enemy at all. This was also why Lin Lin Xian wanted to take a gamble with the geothermal well of the submarine base. However, Ryan's suggestion was also possible. At least keep it in hand. If they successfully escaped this sea area, it might be useful in the darkness.

Subsequently, everyone from the Infinite boarded the Infinite in deep-submergence mode. Each carriage had turned into a deep-water cabin at this time. There were no major changes inside, mainly the special pressure-resistant shell on the outside, as well as the deep-submergence propulsion device, and the co-pressure and life-support modules in the inner cabin.

As for Lin Lin Xian, he took Viola and Kiki and hurried toward the geothermal well on the upper level.

Splash~

Mo Xiaotian stood by the porthole of Carriage 5, looking at the outside through the double portholes of the train and the pressure-resistant shell. At this time, half of the carriage was already immersed in seawater, and the surging water waves kept hitting the carriage windows. Looking at the outside of the window, which was half water surface and half deep water, Mo Xiaotian's face turned pale, and he turned his head to Lu Lu Xingchen:

"Master, are we... really going to dive?"

"Are you afraid?" Lu Lu Xingchen sat cross-legged before the tea table, brewing a pot of tea for himself. With his eyes slightly narrowed, he lectured Mo Xiaotian in a leisurely, expectant manner: "Do not panic. Whether we are descending into a boiling abyss or entering a furnace of heaven and earth, we are here to temper our minds in the fires of tribulation."

A ball of flowing fire jumped at his fingertips: "Xiaotian, listen carefully. Only mortals fear drowning! What you hold in your palm is the thunder that tears the eternal night!"

Mo Xiaotian watched Fire Brother trembling with one hand to send the teacup to his mouth, with an indifferent expression taking a sip, and then trembling to put the teacup down, his face full of astonishment.

"Did you understand?!"

"Understood, understood."

Not far away, Daluo was curiously checking the changes in the deep-submergence module device in the car. At this time, hearing Fire Brother's words, he couldn't help but point to the porthole and say to him: "Fire Brother, look at this seawater. It's as pitch-black as ink. There must be quite a few anomalous entities underwater."

Lu Lu Xingchen didn't even turn his head and waved his hand: "No matter. The anomalous entities underwater will be dealt with by this deity. What water? There's nothing good to see. Not looking."

Seeing Lu Lu Xingchen not even daring to look at the window, Daluo chuckled at Mo Xiaotian, and the tense atmosphere was eased a lot. Long Long Zhijie in the corner crossed his arms and remained silent, looking more like he didn't care.

Everyone knew that Lu Lu Xingchen was most afraid of the closed abyss environment. At this time, his calm appearance probably meant his back was already soaked.

Carriage 3. At this time, Chen Chen Sixuan, Shu Qin, Lv Chang, Luo Yang, Xiao Yuan, Brother Qian Qian Dele, Xiang Xiang Ningjing, and others were all gathered here. The blood crystals taken from Ryan's team were all concentrated in a container at this time. Ding Ding Junyi stood in front of the experimental table. At this time, the small flower on her head was in full bloom, and her whole body was shining with a surging green light.

She stretched out one hand forward, and countless dark green vines radiated out, climbing onto the blood crystals in the container like living things. Whether it was Level 1 blood crystals, Level 2 blood crystals, or Level 3 or 4 blood crystals, they were all entangled one by one. Subsequently, the concentrated dark energy in those blood crystals seemed to be drawn away like energy, actually quickly gathering toward the center along the vines!

And at the center at this time, a special disaster plant was placed.

Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Wrongs!

"It's the first time seeing our scientist activate her ability. This ability looks really powerful." Brother Qian Qian Dele's eyes shone brightly.

Xiang Xiang Ningjing stared at that Silver Dragon Ten Thousand Wrongs, her expression solemn. She knew that it was this disaster plant that allowed them to successfully escape from the No. 5 Abyss. A plant that could produce dimensional bubbles was definitely miraculous.

Shu Qin looked at Chen Chen Sixuan at this time and whispered: "Can we do anything now?"

Chen Chen Sixuan frowned and shook her head: "I don't know. Regarding deep-submergence... I have no experience."

"None of us have experience." Brother Qian Qian Dele pointed to the various operation and maintenance robots in the air and said helplessly: "It all depends on these robots and Viola. Entering the sea, we can't run or fly. Exceeding 3000 meters, our power armor won't be able to withstand it either."

"I think we also need a contingency plan," Xiang Xiang Ningjing said at this time: "Our train is fine on land, but it's too long underwater, and each carriage is scattered." She looked at Chen Chen Sixuan: "Now there are people from the Falcon Sea Group. Just in case, it's best for us to prepare in teams how to escape underwater, or say, have people who can look after each other."

"Good," Chen Chen Sixuan said.

Rear carriage. Lou Shasha confirmed that the "Flying Peach" was firmly locked on the bracket, and the hydraulic lock issued a dull "click" sound.

"Alright, I can't use you underwater, but sooner or later I will transform you into an interstellar craft, or combine you with Lin Ge's big mecha. By then, it will be much cooler~"

Lou Shasha looked at her partner with satisfaction, then prepared to return to the front carriage. As soon as her fingertips left the cold metal bracket and she just turned around, a faint, unsettling sound penetrated the heavy carriage body and the Stardust Crystal glass of the porthole, seeping in from the unfathomable darkness below.

"Coo~ coo..."

It was not the sound of seawater hitting the carriage body, nor the hum of the thruster operation. It was a... rustling scratching sensation, as if countless small, hard things were moving against the indestructible high-energy structural metal pressure-resistant shell at the bottom of the train.

The sound was very light, mixed in with the mechanical noise of the deep-submergence mode and the surging sound of seawater, almost difficult to distinguish. But Lou Shasha's nerves tightened instantly, and a chill ran up her spine. She instinctively bent down, her ears almost pressed against the cold alloy floor. Now they were in the water, and everyone knew that the water was unpredictable. Hearing such a sound at this time made her instinctively alert.

"You heard it too?" ===== CHAPTER 464 =====

The sound was very faint, mixed into the mechanical noise of the deep-dive mode and the surging of the seawater, making it almost impossible to distinguish. But Lou Shasha's nerves tightened instantly, and a chill crept up her spine. She instinctively bent down, her ear pressed almost against the cold alloy floor. Now that they were underwater, everyone knew the depths were treacherous and unpredictable. Hearing such a sound at this moment made her instinctively alert.

"You heard it too?"
