Big Islander 2

Chapter 580 tit for tat
More and more salvage ships gathered in the Atlantic Ocean, as if they had emerged from the sea. In just a few days, salvage teams from more than ten countries and regions gathered here.Platforms have been set up on the entire sea surface, and small boats come and go between each other, as if forming a small settlement on the sea surface.

Various detection instruments also appeared one after another, underwater robots, submarine detection ships and the like also all went into the sea.But to our disappointment, this sea area is still too deep, and the huge water pressure blocks a huge part of the detectors, let alone divers.

After working for a while, they turned their attention to the transport ship of Peach Blossom Island. After all, Peach Blossom Island is the initiator of this incident, and the biological salvage team is well-known all over the world. Maybe they can get some benefits by following him. At least there is something Breaking news can be grasped at the first time.

Therefore, the transport ship on Peach Blossom Island has become a hospitality ship. Every day, journalists and salvage crews from all over the world use various excuses to mix in on the ship, drink two cups of coffee, and communicate with each other, which is quite leisurely.

"These guys have to pay for boarding the boat again. The boarding fee is 100, a cup of coffee is 100, and if you want to eat, add another 100!" Mr. Pheasant began to plan to make a fortune again. There was no more news, and the pheasant was anxiously waiting, so he had to find something to distract him.

Not only that, as time went by, Sanchez and Sophie gradually couldn't sit still.Although they know the skills of Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami, who knows what unknown dangers will exist in the seabed thousands of meters deep, not to mention, this is probably where the legendary continent of Atlantis is located, making this This expedition is filled with more unknowns.

"Hasn't Mr. Island Owner come back yet?" A colleague from Europe asked Mr. Captain.In the past two days, Mr. Captain heard such words at least a dozen times a day, so he didn't bother to answer. He just hummed twice in his nose, and then continued to stare at the sea. ,So what happened?
And another object of attention is the salvage team from the United States. After all, apart from Peach Blossom Island, the Odyssey salvage team in the United States has always been the most advanced in the world.Moreover, it is said that they have also developed a new type of detector this time.

In particular, there was no news from Peach Blossom Island for a long time, while there were transport planes coming and going every now and then, so the reporters' attention gradually shifted away.Unfortunately, they are not as easy to talk to as Peach Blossom Island, and outsiders are not allowed to board the boat at all. It is not so difficult to inquire about news.

But there are also hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the journalists. A reporter from France was very adventurous. He even sneaked onto the salvage ship Odyssey one night and photographed a scene that shocked the world: among a group of American salvage experts, the With two aliens!
After this news was published in the newspaper the next morning, it attracted the attention of countless people, and it also made this salvage activity more widely concerned: Even aliens have been mixed in, so it is strange that there is nothing under the sea!

After the sneak shot reporter got a huge reward, the reporters went crazy. It is said that the Odyssey caught more than 30 stowaways overnight, which was very troublesome.

Under the eyes of everyone, the new detection instrument of the Odyssey salvage team finally appeared in front of the world. It is actually a hemispherical silver detector with a diameter of more than 20 meters, which looks high-end and atmospheric.Immediately, some experts began to analyze, saying how advanced the design concept of this detector is, how well the hemisphere can resist water pressure, etc., it is simply miraculous.

What's more amazing is still to come. Under the strict monitoring of countless cameras, this detector named "Columbus 1" cannot be launched secretly. Therefore, the Odyssey salvage team can only be forced to open the entire launching process.

Under the watchful eyes of countless pairs of eyes, Columbus 1 was slowly placed on the sea surface by a crane. Through the transparent porthole, you can even see several explorers in the probe, including one with a big brain and a thin neck. aliens.

For a moment, the flashing lights blinded people's eyes: it was actually a manned probe, which penetrated 7000 meters underwater, which is a depth that humans have never reached, and it is an absolute forbidden zone.Today, humans can finally accomplish this feat.This is definitely a remarkable stroke in human history, even no less than the original Apollo landing on the moon!

As Columbus 1 slowly sank underwater, praises from all quarters also flooded in.As long as you turn on the TV, you can see various analyzes of Columbus 1, and experts from all walks of life have spoken clearly.It makes people really wonder: Since it is so clear, why didn't you research it earlier?

Of course, what attracted the most attention was the monitoring of Columbus 1. I don’t know how many people requested a live broadcast of this, wanting to witness this great journey of discovery together.However, they were politely rejected in the end.

In contrast, the transport ship on Peach Blossom Island is much cleaner, and Mr. Pheasant is a little bit aggrieved: "What's so great about making a broken shit pot, if you have the ability, you can go straight down like Big Head and Little Shrimp—what's the matter?" , Why didn’t you come out after going down?”

Of course, other people disagree with the pheasant comparing Columbus 1 to a shit pot. Through the numerous reports in the past two days, Mr. Captain also has a deeper understanding of this detector. It is said that the theoretical diving depth can reach nearly [-] meters. .Moreover, there are more than a dozen robotic arms installed, which can perform various complicated operations on the seabed, which is definitely an epoch-making product.Mr. Captain suspects that the two aliens must have made a lot of efforts to make this big guy that integrates detection and salvage.

"It's nothing special at all. Let's take out an octopus soldier, just like him." Mr. Pheasant never minds belittling his opponents and elevating himself.

It's just that talking too much like this is not nutritious. After all, the salvage team on Peach Blossom Island is gone now, so they are not qualified to criticize others.

The days passed day by day in this kind of torment, and every day passed, the mood of the people on the transport ship became heavier; on the contrary, exciting good news can be sent back from Columbus 1 every day, isn’t it right? The outside world reported the depth of the dive, just to get a few photos taken in the deep sea. Those strange deep-sea molluscs have indeed attracted the attention of many people.

However, in the eyes of an insider, these are just superficial and don't have much meaning. The most important thing is whether the remains of Atlantis civilization can be found.

Finally, in the midst of all the attention, the spokesperson of the Columbus 1 detection team released an important news to the media: they will announce the results of the first phase of the detection tomorrow. Find.As soon as this news came out, the whole world went crazy, and people were eagerly looking forward to the arrival of that moment.And the world's major media also sent elites to New York immediately to attend the press conference held there.

When the eyes of the whole world were focused on the Columbus 1 probe, an amazing news came from Taohua Island, which is thousands of miles away: the Taohua Island salvage team had made a major discovery, and they were going to Some early discoveries were made public, and the time was set exactly one day later.As for the location of the press conference, it was not on the salvage ship, but on Sting Island.

Is this the rhythm of fighting in the ring? The media staff organized another interview team and went to Peach Blossom Island as if they had been beaten to death.For them, of course, the more lively the better.

All of a sudden, everyone's attention was drawn back to the transport ship. Salvage teams and reporters from various countries flocked to the transport ship, trying to find out first-hand information.But they are destined to be disappointed, because even the captain is wondering: the salvage activities have been so exhausting, they are looking forward to the return of Big Brother and the others every day, but there is no progress at all. Such news is not spreading rumors, is it?
For this reason, Mr. Captain also specially made several phone calls back to seek confirmation from Zhu Guang, Hai Bobo, Lao Deng and others, and finally got confirmation: all this is true.

With doubts in his heart, the captain finally spent another night of tossing and turning, and watched the live broadcast through the satellite signal on the ship early the next day.

Although it was only one day, there were still a large number of reporters pouring into Peach Blossom Island.Over the past year, Taohua Island's aviation industry has developed rapidly, and more than 60 countries and regions in the world have realized navigation.

The location of the press conference is still the usual style of Peach Blossom Island, directly in the open air, officially starting at 8:[-] am.Basically in sync with the US side, many TV stations simply broadcast a two-way live broadcast, piecing together the two press conferences, anyway, they can do whatever they want to attract attention.

Because the United States was half an hour earlier, they were the first to receive attention. They showed a set of photos sent back by Columbus [-], showing in detail the topography and landforms of the seabed within a radius of several hundred nautical miles.All this is indeed rather novel, but unfortunately, there is no sign that this was once your sunken continent.

The conclusion given by the Odyssey salvage team is also very disappointing, and some people even suspect that the whole thing is simply a farce made out of nothing.

Afterwards, after Lao Deng briefly said a few words on Taohua Island, a man named Mr. Captain appeared on the screen, and Tang Jide walked into the rostrum of the press conference with a shirtless smile .

"Oh, my God, when did the big head return to Sting Island!" The captain couldn't help but exclaimed loudly, and the whole person jumped up from the chair, staring at the screen in disbelief.

And the pheasant quacked strangely: "I'm so mad, we're so worried here, the big head just gave up and went home to pick up the baby. Let's go back, let's go back to our hometown, let's go now!"

"Let's talk about it after reading it. Something must have happened that we don't know about." Sanchez was still relatively calm, still drinking coffee calmly.

In fact, the pheasant just wanted to express its mood, and it was too late to be happy, so everyone continued to watch.I saw Tang Datou waving to the reporters below, and then said: "I can tell you now that Daxizhou really existed, and it still lies quietly in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean!"

This conclusion was completely opposite to that of Columbus [-], so the enthusiasm that had been extinguished in people's hearts broke out again.However, some reporters immediately stood up and questioned Tang Datou: "Mr. Island Owner, what evidence do you have to prove all this?"
