“This is…” Nanase Rena couldn’t help but step forward and stare at the screen, muttering to herself.

"According to the experts' analysis, they are trapped at the bottom of the sea and are looking for a way out, which is why they are showing this strange route map," Ye Rui explained.

…………

seabed.

Director Ji Gang looked at Feng Du with a distressed expression, his lips twitching slightly before he asked again.

Are you sure this is really the way out?

They had been wandering around the seabed since dawn, and every time they changed routes, Fengdu would say that it was a way out.

But the result was either a dead end or a return to square one.

Now, he doesn't even know how many roads he's traveled.

Nanase Fudo secretly glanced at Director Yoshitsugu out of the corner of his eye and noticed that he looked exhausted, with his eyes closed and his fingers pressed against his brow, giving off a 'I have a headache' expression.

'Well, although I might want to go the wrong way a few more times, there's a saying that too much of a good thing can be bad, so I'd better get out now!'

After thinking it over, he steered Dolphin 202 toward the only way out.

With a confident look on his face, he said to Director Ji Gang, "Don't worry, Director, this time we'll definitely get out!"

Upon hearing this, Yoshitsuji waved his hand weakly and remained silent, clearly indicating that he had given up on trusting Fuuto.

I'm too lazy to look at the data. Anyway, right now, only the power system and lighting system on Dolphin 202 can barely work. The other systems are basically paralyzed.

The positioning system does not emit electronic signals at all, but rather diffuses them through special elemental particles.

Thus, it can be detected by advanced instruments.

These particles are very difficult to interfere with, but correspondingly, they are also very expensive to produce.

Above the seabed, in the control room of three rescue boats, an operator looked at the dots on the screen and said with a frustrated expression, "Dolphin 202 has moved again... What do we do?"

The person in the passenger seat next to him sighed.

"What can we do but follow them!"

As a rescue boat, their primary task was to rendezvous with Dolphin 202. So, after monitoring the location of Dolphin 202, they operated the rescue boat and followed it.

result……

You know what I mean...

They followed Nanase Fudo, swimming back and forth on the seabed.

Like a frightened little fish trapped in a glass tank, it can only swim around in the confined space.

Soon, the rescue boat followed the dot on the monitor and sailed away.

The remaining two rescue boats took turns drilling into the seabed.

Because they were unsure whether there was an exit beneath the seabed, their work could not stop.

If there is no exit, then the hole they drilled will be Dolphin 202's only way to survive.

Half an hour later, Yoshitsuji looked at the light in front of him with excitement.

"Light?!"

The presence of light proves that we can go outside.

He exclaimed excitedly, "Have we found a way out?"

"Hmph!" Feng Du grunted twice, then muttered, "I knew we could get out this time!"

Yoshitsuji glanced at him, wanting to repeat what he had said at every intersection.

But at this moment, he really didn't have the energy to dwell on these things.

Keep in mind, he's a man in his fifties now, and he'd just been hit hard in the waist by Zoga.

It still hurts.

"They're out..."

"We're out..."

Inside the rescue boat above, everyone thought they would have to turn back again, but unexpectedly, they saw a beam of light on the monitor.

The person in the driver's seat muttered, "Light?"

"Could it be the light emitted by a bioluminescent fish like an lanternfish?" The co-pilot craned his neck to get closer and observe.

The person in the driver's seat didn't speak, but waited silently while pressing the communication switch.

Before long, a dolphin-shaped machine, clearly man-made, emerged from the seabed coral and appeared before them.

He immediately pressed the communication switch and said excitedly, "I saw Dolphin 202! They've already sailed out of the sea and are coming over to start the rescue..."

Everyone in the command room heard those words.

A smile appeared on Megumi's face, and she said, "Then I'll leave the scene to you!"

Rescue boat: "Understood!"

Munakata: "Understood!"

Deputy Captain Zongfang had been standing above the site of the Dolphin 202 crash. After speaking, he let out a heavy sigh.

Thankfully, it was a close call...

Chapter 13 Time Machine

Chapter XIII

Inside the command center, Yoshitsuji Yoshitsugu and Nanase Fudo lay in the TPC medical room, where medical staff meticulously disinfected them from the outside in.

Afterwards, Yoshitsuji Yoshitsuji was taken to a special medical care room by medical staff to begin treatment for his injuries.

As for Fengdu, he was asked a few simple questions and then let go.

The question was about that Zoga.

Of course, Feng Du had tampered with both of their helmets to ensure that they could see only Zoga, the beast, and nothing else.

Just as he was passing the corner and about to go down to floor B87, he suddenly saw a group of people also walking quickly toward the elevator.

He was slightly taken aback when he saw the woman leading the group, who was wearing a white uniform and had her hair in a bun.

'What are they doing here?'

Then he saw two people behind him, pushing a workbench at the same time.

Judging from the expressions of the two accompanying personnel, the workbench was very heavy.

Seeing that the elevator doors were about to close, he reached out and pressed the open button, keeping the elevator doors open until they were all inside, before releasing the button.

When Reiko Kenmura saw that it was Nanase Kazetari, a look of joy appeared on her face, and she greeted him, "It's good to see you back, Dr. Nanase!"

As research PhDs at TPC, the two inevitably have some overlap in their work. Moreover, since they are close in age, they often meet up for tea and discuss research.

"Well, thankfully it was a close call this time!" Nanase Fudo replied with a smile, nodding to the two people accompanying her behind her.

Seeing Feng Du's polite manner, the latter quickly bowed and showed the expression of seeing an idol on his face.

However, they consciously kept quiet, and one of them took the initiative to step forward and press the button for the floor they wanted to go to.

Reiko Kenmura said, "I heard last night that you were alright, so why did it take you so long to return to headquarters?"

She was very anxious after learning that Dolphin 202 was trapped at the bottom of the sea, but rescue was not her area of ​​expertise, so she could only wait anxiously at the base.

I was terrified that my peers, with whom I could discuss scientific research and have a good chat, would pass away. Fortunately, after learning last night that they were alright, I was finally able to put my mind at ease.

I wanted to go and offer my condolences, but no one returned all night.

"After all, we're trapped at the bottom of the sea, and we've wasted so much time trying to find a way out!" As he spoke, Nanase Kaede looked at the workbench and asked, "What's going on here?"

Dr. Kenmura seemed to realize something, and when asked about him, he explained, "The GUTS team brought back a meteorite, and Captain Megumi wants me to take a look at it!"

Nanase Fudo looked at the control panel.

After thinking for a moment, he realized he had nothing else to do, and his sister should be in the command room, so he said, "Hmm, is that so? Then I'll go with you!"

As they were talking, the elevator had already reached floor A20.

At the TPC headquarters, 'b' represents the underwater floor, while 'a' represents the sea floor.

The Victory Team is a special operations group with many missions, so their command center is located on a higher floor.

After all, most of the time, we need to use Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 and No. 2.

Being closer allows for faster deployment.

As the electric gate opened, everything inside the command room came into Nanase Fuwatari's view.

At this moment, there are many people sitting or standing in the command room.

Because his sister was the ace pilot of the Victory Team, he often came over to visit, and he knew all these people.

Megumi Kijima, Munakata, Daigo, Rena, Horii, Shinjo, and Nozue are all there.

His sister, Nanase Rena, was instantly overwhelmed with excitement the moment she saw him.

He ran forward in a few steps and hugged Nanase Kaede tightly.

She cried out, "Do you know how scared you were to my mom and me!"

She cried, tightening her grip on her arm even more, as if afraid that Nanase Kaede would disappear in the next second.

Nanase Kaede looked apologetically at her older sister, who was a head shorter than her, and said softly, "I'm sorry, sister, I made you and Mom worry!"

"I promise, it will never happen again!"

"Mmm!" Upon hearing Fengdu's words, Nanase Rena gave a heavy "Mmm," then let go of his hand, stood aside, and turned her back to wipe the tears from her face.

Nanase Kazetsu had a good relationship with the GUTS team, and everyone stepped forward after Rena let go.

Xincheng punched him lightly and said irritably, "You really worried us to death!"

"Yeah, thankfully nothing went wrong this time!" As a close friend, Juejin chimed in.
