We followed the instructions of the little prince, pinched our nose with our fingers, and then bulged our breath hard until we heard a "coaxing" sound in our ears, which seemed to be blown out. Even if we completed the "reverse pressure method". It is forbidden to wear earplugs when we dive in depth. If we do not perform backpressure on the body in advance, the pressure in the sea may make the eardrum tingling so hard that it is unbearable.

After we soaked in the water and stretched our hands and feet, the little prince finished talking about the precautions, the cave originally used as the storage base was completely submerged in blue light and could not see any gap.

At the same time, the surging of bubbles in the water also entered a more crazy state. Not only did the two small boats made of wooden boards disperse and sink at any time, but those of us who had just learned the theory of diving could not keep the water floating safely. During the violent shaking, I couldn't see the figures of several companions clearly, and everyone struggled not to be submerged.

Although I was wearing a full set of diving equipment, my situation was not good. My strength was limited. Thinking about the situation in the dragon cave, I simply stopped tossing. I turned on the oxygen valve and kept breathing normally in the mask. My whole body stumbled between the bubbles, and finally sank under the wooden board.

Bai Shuyang's diving equipment is of good quality. Once his body is completely immersed in the water, the heavy oxygen tank no longer looks so heavy with the buoyancy of the sea water and the two small airbags on the strap. The airtight design of the diving suit is to maintain the internal body temperature. A rope tied to a wooden board is still wrapped around my waist. As long as I occasionally tread the fins, I don't have to worry about sinking all the time. Through the diving lens, I saw Dr. Lin and the weirdo not far away still keeping half of the body on the water surface, while the little prince who also sinks down on the other wooden board was holding the oxygen tank in his arms. He didn't even have a respirator, and he bit his mouth with a hose, pinching his fingers on the valve to control his breathing. It was not convenient for him to swim. He just let Brother Mouse drag him from underneath and follow up a few steps from time to time.

The situation was still beyond our expectations. In just about ten minutes, I felt that the water rise suddenly slowed down. From the water, after the cave base was submerged, the water level remained almost half a meter above the black-black hole. It was not as we imagined, and would push us upwards according to the original momentum.

It’s like this dragon cave is a kid who loves to tease us and is happy to drive us out of the cave!

Mr. Dong's previous idea was: if the water level continues to rise, we can return from the side wall to the small cave that Su Liyao and the others used chainsaws to open, and then return to the same route and stay at a higher position to wait for the seawater to recede; if the seawater still rises endlessly by then, we don't even need the heavy oxygen tank, and float up bit by bit with the wooden boards. Wouldn't we be able to get closer and closer to the hole, and then wait for the almost time to grab the wrapped rope and climb out?

But this damn dragon cave is really disobedient. When it doesn't want to rise, it will rise and flood the base. Now that it wants it to continue, it stops again!

Suddenly, another huge bubble floated up next to me. I hurriedly stepped on the flippers on the fins to avoid it, but I staggered and bumped into Mr. Dong who had just sunk from above!

Master Dong's posture was even more distorted than mine. His elbow hit my head, almost knocking my mask off. Then he struggled a few times and sank below me. The rope around his waist was still entangled with me!

Master Dong was super heavy. Not only did he pull me, but he also fell down the wooden boat with them! I adjusted my mask and moved downstream to pull him, but I found that not only could I pull him, but I could feel a force coming from him that was about to rush into the bottom of the dragon cave. I was stunned for a moment, and when Master Dong was also struggling to float, I suddenly trembled all over my body-

There seems to be a water ghost below!

Didn’t the weird guy say that he obviously caught the crew member who fell but couldn’t pull it up? Something underwater also caught him and wanted to take him into the deeper sea. I feel like this is the case with Master Dong now!

The water surface was also very chaotic. I saw two simple wooden boats from below that rope that had already collided together, and even two oxygen tanks rolled down!

I had known that the water ghost was a very agile creature, but I didn't expect that their strength could be so great! Brother Mouse and the monster immediately dived down to approach us. I felt that fighting like tug of war would not be of any benefit to us. Thinking that the water ghost was afraid of light, he hurriedly let go of his hand and grabbed the flashlight hanging on his belt. But when he lowered his head, it was wrong! Mr. Dong's waist was hanging on, and the flashlight was also turned on. How dare the water ghost under him approach him?

“Hey—hey—”

I stopped the panic in my hand and kept my ears in the water without moving. What did I hear just now?

“Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

Damn, no...is this... the mermaid singing?!

Then, the creatures that hide under the water and will pull human ankles into the deep sea are not water ghosts, but mermaids!

Several people under the water stared at each other with wide eyes. Now all the rumors about this place were fulfilled. The three captains were not in the wrong place. There was indeed a mermaid living at the bottom of the dragon cave!

Seeing another bottle of oxygen tank falling down, and the two wooden boats were dragged down to a close, Master Dong stretched out his hand, groped for the bag tied to his thigh, and handed me the knife.

Master Dong means...will I cut the rope connecting him?

But in that case, he would be dragged away by a mermaid like the sinking crew!

The weird guy and the mouse tried hard to dive below Master Dong to confront the mermaid head-on, but the undersea bubble that had just stopped suddenly exploded and began to surging upwards, causing everyone except Master Dong to keep spinning. My diving glass was blurred, and I couldn't even see which direction my head was facing, let alone break through the bubbles to rescue Master Dong!

It seemed like the mouse grabbed my arm from behind, and the next second it was rushed away by the water. I realized that he actually wanted to take the knife in my hand. So what I should do now is to cut off his rope?

I don’t know if doing this is equivalent to killing Mr. Dong, but the knife is only in my hands, and that is his captain’s order.

I groped and put the blade on it, and started cutting hard, feeling the power that was falling down suddenly relaxed - Master Dong was taken away!

I couldn't help but open my mouth and wanted to call him, but with my mask, no one could hear it even if I shouted. I could only see a flash of overlapping light in front of me, and then quietly looked at the bottom of the dragon cave in the gradually calming sea water, trying to find a trace of Master Dong, but... but I saw a dark shadow gradually approaching us, growing bigger and bigger!

I was so scared that I started yelling in my mask again. Could it be that the mermaid felt that it was not enough to catch the crew member and Master Dong again?

I tried my best to step on the fins, holding the knife handed to me by Master Dong, and wanted to float to the water quickly. The little prince, who was very inconvenient to move there, was able to pedal more pieces with the help of Dr. Lin. At this time, the strange man swam over from above me. He was not wearing a diving suit. He held the strap of the oxygen tank with one hand, pulled out the dagger at his waist and rushed towards the very fast shadow-

It was indeed a personal figure. The outline he showed in the blue light was very clear. He was still wearing clothes, and he was...

Damn, why do he have legs?!

Suddenly, there was a slight ease on my head. I shook the water droplets on my head and floated to the surface. The two wooden boats were tightly close together, and the backpack and oxygen tank on it were piled up in large areas. The little prince and Dr. Lin also exposed their heads from the opposite side. Everything that happened in the water just now seemed to be unreal. What was the black shadow I saw?

"Brother Dao, grab the left side!"

The little prince spit out the hose that was biting in his mouth and shouted behind him.

Then the monster finally let us feel relieved and then another person appeared next to him.

I took off my breathing mask and blinked. Who is that? How could it float out of the bottom of the dragon cave without wearing diving equipment? That was... a dead person!

I was surprised to find that he not only "risked", but his chest, legs, and his entire body were floating on the water. This was a floating corpse from the deep sea!

Everyone was struggling. After confirming that there was no danger under the water, they took the oxygen tank and held the wooden boat for a good rest. Master Dong really disappeared without a trace with the mermaid who couldn't see clearly, but he still brought the oxygen tank. Brother Mouse also sank with him the moment I cut the rope. I comforted myself in my heart that things should have a turnaround, and mermaids should not eat people. Maybe Brother Mouse found the right opportunity to do it and brought Master Dong back?

I took the sea water that rarely bubbling and swam to my companions. After the strange man let go, the strange floating corpse moved around the water waves in the dragon cave, which looked very strange. I recalled the swollen Vietnamese devil I had seen near the fisheye pond in my mind, and found that the corpse was much more beautiful, at least he was not swollen!

But this is a difficult thing to believe: the bottom of the dragon cave leads to the deep sea, which is certain, so how could the floating corpse floating from the deep sea not be soaked in swelling?

Unless he just died not long ago!

The little prince loosened the rope, swam a few meters away, stopped the floating corpse and pulled it back to us. Before I could see my face, I glanced at his head and was startled-
Chapter completed!
