Ten minutes later, the two underwater robots were at different water depths and no longer in their original positions.
The yellow underwater robot that was put into the sea from the bow of the ship has descended to a depth of forty-seven meters and is continuing to descend. It has advanced more than thirty meters and is located below the sea surface in front of the bow of the ship. !
The red underwater robot put into the sea from the stern of the ship is still at a depth of about forty meters, constantly testing above the turbulent undercurrents, trying to find gaps and nodes between the undercurrents.
The red underwater robot also advanced more than thirty meters, but to the rear of the ship, under the sea not far behind the rear of the ship.
In the living room on the main deck of the Brave, everyone was looking at the large-screen TV in front of them, watching the pictures fed back by the two underwater robots.
The National Geographic Channel's live broadcast has been temporarily suspended and has been replaced by other programs. Although this live broadcast is very eye-catching, it cannot be broadcast all day long!
The picture on the big screen changed again. The yellow underwater robot passed through a group of sea fish and swam two or three meters sideways and forward, like a yellow and glowing octopus.
Immediately afterwards, Kenny's excited voice came from the intercom.
"Steven, the current location where the yellow underwater robot is currently located is quite gentle, with no undercurrents or eddies, and the temperature and salinity are moderate. Perhaps it is the undercurrent gap we have been looking for!"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes in the living room lit up, and everyone's eyes flashed with excitement, almost cheering!
"Great! Emperor Tian has paid off his hard work! We finally found it. Kenny, you should immediately use the underwater robot to explore and see how big the gap is.
During the exploration process, record the coordinates of each point in detail, determine the range of the gap, and then control the robot to dive to see if the depth of the gap can reach the bottom of the sea! "
Ye Tian said excitedly and waved his fist slightly to celebrate.
"Copy that, Steven, leave it to us, the sunken treasure, here we come!"
Kenny's voice came again, and he was so excited that he almost flew into the air!
Before he finished speaking, the yellow underwater robot had already glided out and began to explore the scope of the gap in the ocean current.
It didn’t take long for the answer to come out.
"Steven, this gap is not small, about seven or eight meters wide. The specific length is unknown for now, but it must be more than ten meters, and it is distributed in an irregular strip.
During the detection process, we recorded the coordinates and corresponding water depth of each point. Once the detection is completed, we will soon be able to draw a 3D image of this undercurrent gap! "
Kenny's voice came again, reporting the preliminary survey results.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tian immediately continued:
"Great, you can check the depth of this gap again to see if it goes straight to the bottom of the sea. If it goes straight to the bottom of the sea, that would be great, and we can get a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of the bottom of the sea!"
At the same time as he said these words, the yellow underwater robot began to dive slowly, and the picture on the big screen TV also changed accordingly.
The school of fish that had previously surrounded the yellow robot had dispersed. Perhaps they had lost interest in the glowing monster and swam away.
In its place are two green sea turtles swimming leisurely and contentedly.
They swam next to the yellow underwater robot and looked at the glowing monster curiously. Obviously they didn't understand what this thing was. They had never seen it before!
Similar to the previous school of fish, while looking at the yellow underwater robot, two green sea turtles kept swimming around the yellow robot and dived deeper into the ocean.
Fortunately, these two guys were full and had no desire to eat, so they did not open their mouths to bite the detection equipment, underwater cameras, steel cables, etc. carried by the yellow underwater robot.
Of course, with the teeth of these two guys, it is difficult to bite those things covered with steel.
As the yellow underwater robot continues to dive, the visibility on the seabed becomes worse and worse, and the scenery continues to change.
The intercom has been quiet and there is no bad news coming. This is the best news.
When the yellow underwater robot dived to a depth of about eighty meters, and the two green turtles finally lost interest and turned away, Kenny's excited voice came again.
"Steven, let me tell you good news. So far, we have never found the existence of undercurrents and vortices in this gap, and the deeper you go, the wider the scope of this gap.
After the water depth exceeds 70 meters, the violence of the undercurrents and whirlpools at the edge of this gap begins to weaken rapidly. The deeper you go to the bottom of the sea, the gentler the current becomes.
Judging from the weakening speed of undercurrents and vortices, if we dive about ten meters further, the seawater around the robot will completely calm down. Apart from being deeper, there will be no other threats! "
"Very good, Kenny, this is the good news I want to hear most. You continue to detect, and you must thoroughly understand the situation of this ocean current gap to prepare for the next action.
This is the English Channel, and the deepest point is only 172 meters. As long as we avoid deadly undercurrents and whirlpools, this depth cannot stop us from exploring the sunken treasures.
If what is expected is correct, the yellow underwater robot is about to dive to the bottom of the sea. I don’t know what is on the bottom of the sea. I hope there will be surprising discoveries.”
Ye Tian picked up the walkie-talkie and said with a bright smile on his face.
A few minutes later, the yellow underwater robot dived another ten meters, reaching a depth of about ninety meters below the sea surface.
The visibility in the seawater no longer changes. Outside the light range of the underwater robot, there is only endless darkness!
However, through the high-definition images returned by the underwater robot, everyone can clearly see that compared to the water depth of 40 to 80 meters, the sea water here has become clearer!
In addition, the fish and other marine life that appear in front of the underwater camera lens also appear more leisurely and swim more calmly!
Seeing this, everyone immediately understood that the water flow here had become much gentler, and the undercurrents and whirlpools that stirred the seawater almost disappeared.
Sure enough, Kenny immediately confirmed everyone's suspicion.
"Steven, there are no undercurrents and whirlpools here. The water flow is quite gentle. It is a very quiet underwater world without any danger.
According to the analysis of the data fed back by the underwater robot, we can see the underwater scenery at most twenty meters away. Who knows what we will find! "
While he was talking, a seabed cliff suddenly appeared not far to the left of the yellow underwater robot. It was as sharp as a knife and an axe, very steep, straight into the seabed!
Seeing this scene, everyone in the living room immediately understood that they had reached the bottom of the sea.
The English Channel was originally the smallest continental shelf shallow sea in Europe. The European continent was originally connected to the island of Great Britain. The strait was formed when the Alpine orogeny broke off and sank and was submerged by sea water.
To this day, the English Channel area is still sinking slowly. Both sides of the strait are straight and steep, with many islands. The bottom of the sea is mostly made up of gravel sediments brought by rivers and debris from bank collapse.
Undersea cliffs that appear on the big screen can be found everywhere on both sides of the English Channel, so as soon as everyone sees this cliff, they immediately make an accurate judgment.
"Wow! That's great. I finally reached the bottom of the sea. I wonder what is hidden on the bottom of the sea. Are there any surprising discoveries?"
There was cheering in the main deck living room of the Brave and Dauntless, and everyone was excited.
Before the cheers ended, the picture on the big-screen TV had changed. A large ship capsized on the seabed suddenly appeared on the big screen.
“Guys, look at the bottom of the sea to the right of the underwater robot. There seems to be a big ship there. Isn’t it a cargo ship carrying gold, jewelry and diamonds?”
Chandler pointed at the picture on the big screen TV and exclaimed excitedly.
While he was exclaiming loudly, the yellow underwater robot continued to dive, and the underwater images captured by its high-definition underwater camera became clearer!
There is indeed a large ship on the bottom of the sea. It lies across the sand and is nearly half buried by the gravel on the bottom of the sea. The hull is covered with algae plants of different types and lengths, swaying gently in the seawater
In addition, there are many fish and other marine life swimming around the sunken ship, or swimming in and out of the sunken ship, all of them are content and very agile!
From a condescending perspective, the sunken ship is like a marine paradise and a refuge for many creatures on the seabed!
Ye Tian took a look at the appearance of the sunken ship, then said with a smile:
"That is not a cargo ship filled with Nacui gold and jewelry and diamonds, but a Galenic ship from the sailing era. Judging from its appearance, it should be a battleship!
I just don’t know which country that warship once belonged to and what era it came from. What are the things on the ship? I hope it can bring you a surprise! "
"The Galenic ship in the age of sailing may be another ocean-going treasure ship. If so, it would be perfect!"
Jason continued speaking with a beaming look, his eyes shining brightly.
While speaking, the yellow underwater robot had arrived above the ancient sunken ship, slowly stopped, and was suspended in the sea water.
