Chapter 459 Deep Sea Construction
( ) Because of the shape of the water droplet, there is almost no resistance when it shuttles through the water. In the blink of an eye, he can drive tens of meters away. Jiang Chen looked at the speed on the speedometer: 75 knots
"Good guy, just judging from the speed, this damn can already blow up the world's fastest submarine." Jiang Chen couldn't help sighing as he looked at the galloping bottom of the sea.
He remembered that the fastest submarine in the world is the Russian P-class cruise missile nuclear submarine, with a maximum speed of 44.7 knots. And the speed of this water drop 1 has reached a terrifying 75 knots.
I just don't know how the legendary superconducting ferrofluid submarine that is still under development compares with the "mount" under his crotch.
The seabed is rocky, and the dark green seaweed is whirling like a forest. Schools of colorful fish shuttled freely in the sea, jellyfish and squid danced to the accompaniment of air bubbles, all of which turned into glimpses on the wall of water droplets.
In addition, Jiang Chen also saw the legendary shark.
When "Water Droplet" passed by it, the big guy ignored "Water Droplet" as if he hadn't seen it, and disappeared from Jiang Chen's sight when he turned around.
As the depth gradually increases, the light from the sea surface becomes darker and darker, and the claustrophobic feeling of the dark blue becomes more and more obvious. Jiang Chen wasn't sure if he had deep-sea phobia, but he still turned off the wide-angle camera, and only kept the front, left, right, and rear windows on the screen directly in front of him.
"Waterdrop One, where have we been?"
"There are still 100 nautical miles to the target location."
100 nautical miles, that is to say, there is still about an hour?
Seeing that there was still a little time left, Jiang Chen got up and walked into the living cabin.
The layout of the living cabin is very compact. There are two beds with nylon buttons on the left and right sides, if the bed is lifted up. The table and wardrobe under the bed can be pulled out. After looking at the internal structure of the submersible with great interest, Jiang Chen told him to wake him up after the submersible reached its position. Then he got into the sleeping bag-like bed and took a nap for a while.
An hour later, under the soft ringtone, Jiang Chen opened his eyes.
After getting out of bed and returning to the cockpit, he turned his gaze to the control panel, and his eyes widened in surprise.
Is this the 7,500-meter seabed?
This bottomless darkness, this legendary forbidden zone of life.
throughout the area,
All that can be seen is the beam of light that shoots from the front of the water droplet into the bottom of the sea. The black shiny rocks shimmered in the light of the searchlights. The disturbed benthic creatures moved their cilia, and slowly fled towards the surrounding darkness.
In addition to those strangely shaped underwater creatures, the cracks in the seabed rock shell spew out hot air bubbles from time to time. The dark red fire, like a volcano, brewed with terrifying energy.
At this time, a ten-meter-long, flat sea fish slowly approached the water drop. No eyes could be found on the saucer-shaped head, and the spike-shaped teeth looked terrifying. It looked at the water drop curiously, and touched it with its mouth. But soon it was electrocuted and swam two meters away. He ran away without looking back.
The electrostatic repelling device on the surface of water droplets can make most deep-sea creatures lose interest in it. On the one hand, this is to protect the safety of the submersible, and on the other hand, it is also to protect the safety of these underwater creatures.
Not continuing to play, Jiang Chen quickly followed the distribution of mineral resources marked on the map. Manually controlled Water Drop One and moved to the top of the molybdenum-rich manganese nodules.
"Throw the mining module." After confirming the target location, Jiang Chen ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes. Mr. Captain." The artificial intelligence replied politely.
Soon, the cylinder suspended at the bottom of the drop is separated from the drop. A long, narrow string of air bubbles exits the rear of the cylinder. Push the fish-like cylinder to slowly float towards the target rock.
100 metres.
50 meters.
10 m.
The searchlight locked the cylinder tightly, and Jiang Chen stared at this scene intently.
The dark black rock blocks are inlaid in the gray-black argillaceous rock. Scattered like a cobblestone road landscape. The cylinder slowly stopped above the black rock formation, and the engine behind it slowly turned off.
Jiang Chen glanced at the map on the screen, and saw that the green dot marking the location of the submersible had coincided with the red dot in the center of the mine.
After a pause, Jiang Chen ordered in a deep voice: "Mining module, unfold!"
"As ordered."
A series of air bubbles sprang out from the bottom of the cylinder, and suddenly dragged the graphene cable nails and chiseled towards the bottom of the sea. The cable stretched straight, slowly pulling the cylinder to the ground, and stopped at a position about 3 meters close to the bottom of the sea.
The cylinder unfolded slowly, and the hatches on both sides slowly expanded outwards, releasing two missile-like objects. The missile is about 5 meters long and 1 meter in diameter, and the tail is connected to the inner cabin of the cylinder by a graphene pipe.
I saw that after the two missiles were separated from the cylinder, the warheads sank immediately, and a stream of water mist was sprayed out from the tail, pushing the missiles to hit the seabed.
The warhead dived deep into the rock mass.
Then a miraculous scene happened!
The tail of the warhead exploded suddenly, and at the same time as a string of bubbles exploded, it opened an arc-shaped top cover with a radius of about ten meters like an umbrella. The top cover slowly descended and buckled onto the flat seabed rock mass.
From a distance, it looks like a large cylinder connected with two upside-down bowls on the seabed with graphene tubes.
"The mining module has been deployed, please deploy the transportation module."
The polite electronic voice sounded again, pulling Jiang Chen back from the shock of technology.
The so-called transportation module is actually four graphene guide rails and an ellipsoid lifter. Due to the large size of these things, Jiang Chen did not carry them in the submersible. After all, there is such a thing as storage space, and it is really easy to bring objects to the bottom of the sea.
After anchoring Shuidi No. 1, Jiang Chen immediately returned to Doomsday, and came to the backyard of the villa. Right now it's storing his Dolphin-10 and a bunch of graphene rails from the Sixth Street factory.
In the deep sea environment of more than 7,000 meters, it is difficult for ordinary materials to withstand this kind of water pressure, so high-strength graphene materials come in handy.
After throwing these materials into the storage space, Jiang Chen returned to Waterdrop 1 again.
Putting his hand on the hatch, his consciousness sank into the storage space, and soon, the dozens of bundled graphene rails were thrown out of the cabin.
Then Jiang Chen went back and forth between the present world and the end of the world several times in the same way, throwing all the building materials out of the water droplets.
After ordering Shuidi No. 1 to lift the anchor, Jiang Chen ordered the intelligent system to start construction, splicing the graphene guide rails and fixed buoys on top of the mining module according to the drawings in the memory.
He didn't need to do the rest of the work himself. Looking at the 5 hours of construction time, Jiang Chen yawned and returned to the living cabin.
All operations can be handed over to artificial intelligence.
As the captain, he only needs to go back to the living cabin to sleep and wait for the construction to be completed before returning to the voyage. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit m.
