High-tech invasion, I can see the future

Chapter 64 Giant Catfish, Dragon Ball Descends!

Bai Yu was startled by the sudden appearance of the dark figure: "A monster!"

Upon hearing the news, the crew on the surface immediately activated underwater detection equipment and turned on searchlights. Meanwhile, a deep-sea submersible armed with explosives rapidly approached the location.

Under the light, they discovered that it was a giant catfish, a full seven meters long! Its peaceful and wise eyes and slow swimming posture indicated that it was not hostile.

Because of the revival of spiritual energy, the biological forms have indeed changed, but as long as they have not developed intelligence, they are considered normal creatures.

The scene became somewhat awkward for a moment.

Liu Feifei's laughter rang out: "Hahaha~ It's just a big catfish, you're such a coward!"

Bai Yu was also somewhat embarrassed, his face turning bright red. He genuinely had thalassophobia; did you think this was a joke?

His high level of stress accelerates oxygen consumption, a common problem in deep-sea diving.

In addition, excessive water pressure can lead to nitrogen narcotics, causing people to feel excited or disoriented, both of which are extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, the group eventually reached a depth of 75 meters and reached the lakebed, where they began their search.

They searched for about twenty minutes.

Zhao Bin reported to his superior: "Depth 80 meters. I have 63% oxygen left, which should last about 58 minutes."

The oxygen level is lowest for white feathers, and they can only survive for 49 minutes. To be on the safe side, they should definitely float to the surface before the oxygen level reaches 25%.

And so, the group continued their search.

About ten minutes later, Liu Feifei, who had been searching separately, excitedly exclaimed in the channel, "I think I found it!"

Upon receiving the message, the personnel above immediately activated the underwater navigation equipment and headed to Liu Feifei's location.

Bai Yu also rushed over and saw the scene in the intelligence image.

The water flowed swiftly, forming a small whirlpool. The sound of the water was loud and deep, and there were also raised gullies, all of which matched the description.

"This is it!"

Just as everyone was getting excited, Liu Feifei suddenly screamed, "Ah~!"

Bai Yu and the other two were startled. Liu Feifei did not have thalassophobia. Could there be a monster?

They immediately looked towards where Liu Feifei was, but found nothing unusual.

Bai Yu asked, "What's wrong?"

"A ghost! A white shadow! I just saw a drifting, humanoid white shadow!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu frowned, glanced around, but found nothing unusual.

"Are you sure? Don't scare me!"

"Really! I really saw it! I'm not kidding!"

Since neither the instruments nor the personnel on the water could see any footage, Bai Yu could only explain, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the soul of that thing?"

Liu Feifei, who was initially a little scared, thought about Bai Jiao after hearing this and felt that it made a lot of sense.

"Phew~"

He couldn't help but breathe a huge sigh of relief.

But he really felt that the figure was very eerie, like a ghost.

After observing for a moment and seeing that nothing had happened, Zhao Bin asked, "Shall we go back?"

"Yeah! The oxygen alone isn't enough to last us until midnight. Now that we've found a spot, we just need to wait for the captain to arrive."

After the group had been swimming for a while, Bai Yu looked back and saw a white shadow flash by.

With a slight frown, he said over the communication channel, "Deep-sea submersible explores our surrounding area and escorts us back to shore."

"clear!"

"What's wrong?"

"I just saw a white shadow too. I had a feeling it had an eerie aura about it. Whether it was that spirit or not is still hard to say."

Be careful!

"Um."

In the end, everyone returned safely to the south bank of Yunhu Lake and unloaded the equipment.

Han Qing, who seemed rather aloof, walked over and asked directly, "Are you going to retrieve something from the lake?"

"Hmm, a bead that's somewhat useful."

"Is it related to the suicide case?"

Han Qing's emotions were clearly fluctuating when he said this.

Seeing this scene, even though Bai Yu suspected that the drowning incident might be related to the white dragon offering, and that he had just encountered something resembling a ghost, and that the offering might be the cause, he couldn't say it.

He then said, "It shouldn't matter. This bead is considered an auspicious object."

Hearing this, Han Qing's expression didn't change, but she could sense that her emotions had calmed down considerably: "Alright."

After saying that, she walked to the riverbank, sat quietly, and waited for further arrangements.

Half past ten.

A black car pulled up on the side of the road, and Li Yunbin and Qin Wanqing got out.

Upon the arrival of the team leader, the surrounding investigators became more animated.

"Hello, team leader!"

Good morning, team leader!

It's clear that Li Yunbin is the backbone of Group Seven; whenever he appears, everyone's morale soars.

Bai Yu: Meow meow meow~ When will I be able to become the group leader?

He had only thought halfway through his thought when Li Yunbin's gaze met his. Li Yunbin walked over, patted his head, and said, "You little rascal, you really are a handful."

It has a feeling of an elder educating a younger person.

Bai Yu blinked his big, innocent eyes and said, "If I don't take care of this, won't the fishmen get their hands on it? Then, it will be involved in all sorts of floods."

"Okay. Have you found the location yet?"

"Yes, using the thrusters, we can get there in about ten minutes. And the oxygen tanks can last for about an hour and a half."

At this point, Bai Yu paused for a moment, then expressed his concern: "However, it is still unknown whether there will be any major disturbances in that area when it takes shape."

"Okay, I understand."

After saying that, Li Yunbin took out four jade pendants.

Bai Yu recognizes this thing!

Purple Jade Pendant.

When he went to Thunder Lab, Sister Wanqing took out this thing to save his life, but he didn't need to use it, so Bai Yu naturally returned it.

This thing can actually be mass-produced?

But it's probably quite valuable. It was used to protect Qin Wanqing's life.

"One for each of you, take it. In addition, I have also prepared some talismans for you to use underwater, some for attack, some for defense, and some that can increase your movement speed by using water currents."

"Before we begin, I need to make one thing clear to you: underwater, in the event of a crisis, you absolutely must not scatter!"

"Do you understand?"

"clear!"

The things Li Yunbin possessed were naturally obtained from his family. To be honest, he wasn't the only heir in the Li family.

In fact, this generation of the Li family has dozens of grandchildren!

Resources are also finite and cannot be supplied indefinitely.

Having acquired so many resources, Li Yunbin naturally needs to perform even better to live up to the family's expectations.

Of course, with Bai Yu as a teammate, Li Yunbin felt that he could be a bit more aggressive!

With the revival of spiritual energy, only the strong can control their destiny! This principle remains unchanged throughout history.

Li Yunbin chose to shoulder the heavy responsibility and fight against the vampire baron! He will face even stronger enemies in the future, which will hone his strength.

After communicating with Bai Yu and the others, Li Yunbin began to make arrangements with the other investigators.

To be honest, the seven members who came here didn't know it was the Flood Dragon Pearl; they only knew it was a treasure.

With such a commotion, anyone could see that the treasure was very important.

But it's hard to believe that it's equivalent to a level seven treasure!

They probably thought it was a treasure from a level four or five treasure vault.

Around 11:40.

The sky above Yunhu was covered with dark clouds, obscuring the sun.

As if propelled by some unseen force, the clouds subtly formed a huge vortex.

At the center of the vortex, a long, narrow object can be vaguely seen, but it is not very clear.

"Boom!"

A muffled clap of thunder boomed, and a torrential downpour began.

Large water droplets slapped against the surface of the lake.

Everyone donned their equipment, and Li Yunbin said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

"Gurgle~ gurgle~"

Bai Yu and the others immediately activated their thrusters and quickly submerged into the deep waters of Cloud Lake.

The roar of the thrusters echoed in the water as they sped through the whirlpool, finally coming to a steady stop fifty meters from its center.

This body of water has now formed a larger whirlpool, as if echoing the strange phenomenon in the sky.

I glanced at the time - 11:48.

The suction force at this moment is not very strong.

Everyone tried to maintain a safe distance.

Time passed second by second, the vortex spun faster and faster, and the suction became stronger. Everyone quickly retreated, about fifty meters away, and it was already difficult to see the situation inside the vortex.

At that moment, the monitoring team on the communicator reported: "Reporting, Captain! The psionic index has increased at least twenty times compared to before!!!"

The person giving the report was clearly unusually agitated, and this was data from the very edge of the vortex.

What could be lurking at the center of the vortex?

Subsequent data became even more outrageous.

Furthermore, the people could even see with their naked eyes that a light blue energy and a white energy were constantly stirring in the water.

Bai Yu's heart was also in his throat; he didn't know if there would be any bigger developments.

The sound of rushing water grew louder, and at the center of the whirlpool, a faint white beam of light seemed to be about to shoot into the sky.

About twenty minutes later, the commotion gradually subsided!

There were some unusual phenomena during this period, but no accidents occurred.

Li Yunbin: "Go ahead."

He said this to convey as much as possible that he wouldn't compete for it.

Bai Yu was extremely excited at this moment: "Alright!"

He used the propulsion device to quickly move to the pool and swam down.

Despite his fear of the deep sea, he was incredibly excited at that moment! His fear was completely overshadowed.

In just twenty meters, Bai Yu arrived in front of the Flood Dragon Pearl.

Looking at the dragon pearl on the stone disc, surrounded by swirling energy, Bai Yu took a deep breath and reached out to touch it.

The moment the finger gently touched the dragon pearl, the water flow in the entire cave seemed to pause.

The bead emitted a faint light, like a bright moon underwater, illuminating the surrounding dark waters.

And there's a warm feeling! This warmth comes directly from the wetsuit.

"Captain! We got it!"

Li Yunbin and the others outside the cave also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, a voice immediately came through the communicator: "Report, Captain! Three merfolk are rapidly approaching from the west!"

"There are five murlocs to the north! Including a high-ranking murloc with green scales!"
