However, just as they were about to rush out of the underground river, a huge curtain of water suddenly appeared in front of them.
That is the boundary between the underground river and the outside sea. The water pours down from a high place, forming an underwater waterfall.
Below the waterfall is a huge bottomless trench.
"If we fall, we'll be finished!" Mu Mu shouted in horror.
Qi Mingyu's brain was working rapidly.
He knew that the submarine's power was not enough to go upstream, and the only way out was to find a slow-flowing area at the edge of the waterfall and force his way out.
"Turn right! Find a slow-flowing area!" he ordered decisively.
The submarine struggled to find a way to survive on the edge of the waterfall, but every time it got close, it was pushed into the abyss by the strong current.
Just when everyone thought they were doomed, Zhou Shuwan suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the right.
"That...there..." Her voice was intermittent.
Qi Mingyu turned around immediately and found a narrow crevice on the right side where the water flow was relatively slow.
Without hesitation, he drove the submarine into the crevice, and the hull rubbed against the rock wall, making a harsh friction sound.
A few seconds later, the submarine rushed out of the dark river and entered a relatively open sea area.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves finally relaxed for a moment.
However, the crisis has not been completely resolved.
The submarine's starboard side was still leaking water, and the water level in the cabin had risen to ankle level.
To make matters worse, their location was completely unknown. They were surrounded by the pitch-black deep sea and had no visible reference points.
"We have to find a place to dock and repair the submarine." Qi Mingyu said in a deep voice.
Even if it cannot be repaired, they must move to the submarine in Zhou Shuwan's space.
This ship definitely can't hold on any longer.
Zhou Shuwan sat up straight with difficulty, closed his eyes, and tried to perceive the surrounding environment.
A few minutes later, she opened her eyes and pointed to the northeast: "Ten...ten kilometers away...there is a...seabed plain..."
Qi Mingyu immediately adjusted the course and the submarine slowly headed northeast.
The submarine slowly moved northeastward.
The atmosphere in the cabin was still solemn.
But there is also good news.
"The rate of water seepage on the starboard side is slowing down." Mu Mu's voice was filled with relief: "The sealant is finally starting to work."
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun slumped on the ground, their hands already numb and unable to feel.
The cold sea water condensed into a thin layer of white frost on their cuffs, which was shocking to the eye.
The submarine moves slowly in the deep sea, and the tiny vibrations of the propellers seem to challenge the limits of the hull.
The air in the cabin was still heavy, with a damp, salty smell mixed with a metallic odor, making it difficult to breathe.
Zhou Shuwan leaned back in his chair, his face still pale, but his breathing was steadier than before.
She closed her eyes, the stinging sensation of forcibly taking the rock wall still lingering in her mind. The feeling of being torn apart by a thousand knives still made her feel scared.
"Wanwan, can you hold on?" Qi Mingyu asked in a low voice while controlling the submarine.
His voice was thick with worry, yet he remained calm so as not to make the others more nervous.
"I'm fine..." Zhou Shuwan squeezed out two words with difficulty: "Please pay attention to your surroundings..."
The submarine continued to move through the dark waters.
The silence of the deep sea was in stark contrast to the previous chaos, and one could almost hear the sound of one's own heartbeat.
The searchlight beam swept across the front, illuminating only endless darkness and the occasional flash of floating rock fragments.
"Seven more kilometers." Mu Mu reported the distance, his eyes always fixed on the radar screen.
Although only a few blurry spots of light were displayed, this was their only basis for navigation at the moment.
At this moment, the submarine suddenly shook slightly.
"What's going on?" Zhou Jianghai immediately became alert.
"We may have entered an undercurrent area." Mu Mu analyzed: "The direction of the water flow is constantly changing."
