Abnormality in the Deep Sea Rift Valley

In the deep sea area of the eastern part of Huaxia.

Five hundred meters below the seabed, Lin Chen, who had transformed into Abyss Dragon No. 1, was currently fighting a huge mecha beast.

This mecha beast was a fish-shaped mecha.

Its body was about 30 meters long, and its entire body was covered in solid streamlined scales. It had an angry expression, and its mouth was full of sharp metal teeth.

Each tooth was as big as a car tire!

On its back stood a huge dorsal fin that was like a tower, and its razor-like tail was restless.

It was as if it was going to tear Abyss Dragon No. 1, which was before him, apart in the next second!

According to Star's analysis, this was A-grade-like shark cyber beast.

The so-called A-grade-like was above B-grade and below A-grade. It was infinitely close to A-grade, but had not reached A-grade.

However, this was a young tiger shark. It had probably just hatched from its eggshell, so it bit anyone it saw, even Abyss Dragon No. 1, which was several times larger than itself.

Wasn't this what "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers" mean?

However, although this thing was an A-grade-like, its attacks were really ferocious. It was targeting the fragile joints of the Abyss Dragon No. 1's mechanical arm.

However, he was the Abyss Dragon!

The Abyss Dragon No. 1 that had evolved from a strategic nuclear submarine!

To Abyss Dragon No. 1, which had extremely strong defense, this level of attack was like a crane lifting a feather. It was not worth mentioning!

After the tiger shark mecha tried to attack a few times, it realized that it was not the other party's match and immediately turned around to escape quickly!

But how could Lin Chen let it do as it wished?

He used the Abyss Dragon No. 1's rotary water turbine engine to rush in front of it at an extremely fast speed and flipped it over with Abyss Dragon No. 1's massive body.

Then, he grabbed its sturdy dorsal fin and ripped it off!

"Woo!!!"

For a moment, the tiger shark mecha shark let out a painful roar and instantly lost its balance.

However, its survival instincts made it slither its pair of tender shark fins to swim under such circumstances.

In this situation, Lin Chen did not feel any sympathy. Instead, he aimed his fist at its head and smashed down!

A moment later, its energy core was ripped out by Lin Chen.

"Woo——"

After letting out another roar, its body stopped swimming.

After dealing with it, he put the energy core into the energy store of the Abyss Dragon and handed the corpse to the crab mechas he brought with him.

The crab mechas had a special body structure. Their two nearly one-meter-long giant pincers could easily tear apart the mechanical tissues of an A-grade mecha beast.

Under them was a square storage space about 3 x 3, which was perfect for storing these mechanical parts.

Therefore, in a short while, they 'decomposed' the entire tiger shark mecha.

It could be said that this was the end of the line.

After dealing with it, Lin Chen continued to dive.

Because Abyss Dragon No. 1 was a submarine to begin with, it could dive to a depth of 1,000 meters before the cyber transformation.

Therefore, now after the enhancement, it was not a problem for him to dive to 2,000 meters.

The deep sea was dark. The deeper one went, the darker it became.

Fortunately, the Abyss Dragon had its own deep-sea night vision goggles, which allowed Lin Chen to see what the seabed looked like clearly.

In addition to the darkness at the bottom of the sea, there was also silence!

The depth of 2,000 meters was terrifyingly quiet!

Other than some strange-looking fish mechas, there was nothing else.

However, Lin Chen's intuition told him that the quieter a place was, the more good stuff there was!

As expected, just as he landed on the undersea continental shelf about two thousand meters deep, a bottomless huge undersea rift valley blocked his path!

The rift valley was about a thousand meters in diameter and unfathomably deep. Just by looking at it which was like a black hole made Lin Chen tremble all over.

Fortunately, he did not have deep-sea phobia. Otherwise, he would definitely faint on the spot.

"Star, scan the rift valley."

In this situation, Lin Chen did not dare to dive down rashly. He could only let Star use ultrasonic waves to explore the depth of the rift valley and scan for the congregation of creatures.

[Roger—]

Star responded. Then, a sound wave was emitted from the ultrasonic terminal at the top of Abyss Dragon No. 1.

With the collision of the various media, what was bounced off revealed the topographical structure of the rift valley.

About three minutes later, Star did not report the results. Instead, it issued a warning.

[Warning: The ultrasonic detection sound wave rebound has been stopped by some strange force. Unable to obtain sonic feedback, unable to analyze the results…]

"Unable to analyze?"

Lin Chen was suddenly stunned.

"Even you can't detect it?"

This was the first time he had seen an AI fail.

Seemingly unconvinced, Star gave a second solution.

[Master, most creatures can affect sound waves. In addition, there are many complicated media in the seawater. Ultrasonic detection won't be too accurate, so this is a normal phenomenon.]

[I've already analyzed the most effective exploration method through my intellectual library.]

"What method?"

[Answer: Implant a quantum control into the body of a crab mecha and then place it in the rift valley, at which time, you will be able to determine the situation in the rift valley through the images sent back by visual sharing.]

"Visual sharing? You can do that?"

[Answer: This function has long been mastered by the technology of humans, such as common equipment like mobile phones, drone photography, and so on.]

"It's really…"

This reply left Lin Chen with no way to refute it. Wasn't this equivalent to strapping a camera to a crab?

"Alright, go ahead."

Lin Chen did not say anything else and asked Star to start its performance.

[Received, the order has been conveyed—]

Upon receiving the order, one of the crab mechas stepped out from the crab army unit and leapt directly into the sea.

At the same time, a faintly glowing screen appeared in front of Lin Chen.

It was playing from the crab's field of view.

At the beginning of the dive, its surroundings were no different from above.

However, as it dived deeper, huge red algae and coral reefs gradually appeared.

However, there were still no other underwater creatures to be seen. This made Lin Chen wonder.

It was less than 3,000 meters under the sea. There should not be so many creatures extinct.

However, that was the truth. The crab was about to dive to a depth of 2,500, still no other creatures were seen. Other than the huge algae and corals, nothing was encountered.

About ten minutes later, the crab mecha easily arrived at the bottom of the rift valley. The depth it sent back stayed at 2,899 meters under the sea.

Initially, Lin Chen thought that he would be able to see different things at the bottom of the rift valley, but he had been overthinking. The bottom was still ordinary, no different from the top.

Therefore, he could only order the giant crab mecha to move forward along the bottom of the rift valley.

This really gave him a reward!

When the giant crab mecha passed by a large coral reef, it suddenly spotted a bright golden light in a place where green algae had gathered!

"This is!"

Lin Chen was a little excited. He had only seen this kind of light on the Lava Beast mecha!

But before the giant crab mecha could step forward, suddenly, there was a cry!

The view on the screen also shook violently. Immediately after, the screen went dark, losing connection with the giant crab mecha!
