Chapter 741
Someone came over and asked them to disembark, handing them a bottle of pressure medication as a kind gesture.
Tang Zhou held the pressure medication. “What’s this?”
The tall and imposing Wolfman warrior sneered at him and sarcastically laughed, “Take it or leave it.”
Then, he turned to Ye Xingguang and respectfully gestured for her to precede him, “Your Majesty, please.”noveldrama
Ye Xingguang took the pressure pills from Tang Zhou’s hand, glanced at them, then threw them back, “Take two each. Otherwise, you won’t be able to withstand the pressure outside. We’re two thousand meters under the sea here. The enormous pressure can crush you. You don’t feel it inside this submarine because of the pressure adjustment system. But once you leave the submarine, you’re as good as dead.”
Holy crap, isn’t that a bit too scary?
Han Chengbei snatched the pressure medicine from Tang Zhou, swallowed two and asked without forgetting, “My Lord, are you sure two is enough? Should I just stay on board and not go out? The Han family can’t afford to lose me, especially when I don’t even have a diving suit.”
Tang Zhou took two as well. “Little Xingguang, I don’t have a diving suit either. How about we stay onboard until Qiangge finds us? Maybe he’ll be able to locate us.”
“Twenty thousand meters under the sea!” Han Chengbei stressed.
“So what? Is that a big deal?” It was indeed quite impressive, but Tang Zhou didn’t want to admit it.
Han Chengbei whistled, “Don’t forget we’re now pseudo teammates against a common enemy.”
“Come along. Just think of it as a deep-sea tour. If I leave you two alone on this submarine, you’ll become bargaining chips for Geshu Tang. I’d rather have you with me where I can keep an eye on you. Trust me, I won’t let your journey be boring.”
As she walked, Ye Xingguang said to the wolfman warrior leading the way, “I want a private ride.”
The wolfman warrior nodded, “Very well, Your Majesty.”
All of Tang Zhou’s curiosity was aroused. “A private ride? Don’t tell me this underwater civilization invented car-like things that drive underwater? Aw man, I have got to try this!”
The wolfman warrior leading the way looked back at Tang Zhou’s naive excitement, his contempt for him growing.
Following the wolfman warrior, the group quickly rode an elevator all the way to the bottom, then passed through several corridors to reach the lowest level carpark.
“Wow, what’s this?”
Tang Zhou saw the small, shark-shaped submarines lined up in front of him—twenty in total. They were simply cool and badass!
The wolfman warrior, still with that disdainful look in his eyes, introduced to Tang Zhou, “These are shark-shaped submarines. They can reach a top speed of 200 kilometers per hour underwater and have the advanced pressure regulation systems to ensure that the pressure you’ll feel in these submarines is the same as you’d feel on dry land, preventing you from getting crushed by the undersea pressure.”
The length of the shark-shaped submarines roughly equaled that of a stretched Rolls-Royce. Twenty of them lined up in a row but it still didn’t seem crowded. Han Chengbei glanced at it and was secretly astonished by the size of the submarine.
Tang Zhou was itching to get inside one of the shark-shaped submarines but he couldn’t find the entrance.
He circled around it, touching it excitedly. Suddenly he thought, “This hostage situation isn’t so bad. I wouldn’t mind doing it again, in fact! It’s so cool! Where’s my phone? Damn, I wish I could take loads of photos like influencers do with luxury cars!”
