Chapter 567: The Loser and the Beast (4)——Fingal
Chapter 567: The Loser and the Beast (4)——Fingal
Professor Schneider stared at the screen, not daring to be negligent again.
"Professor, request to leave the cabin. We have seen the door that Finkel mentioned. It really looks like a door." The team member said anxiously in the communication channel: "We have not seen Finkel's submersible yet."
"Don't leave the cabin yet." Professor Schneider instructed: "Approach the door slowly. Remember, don't go through it."
"Got it." The teammates slowly approached the bronze pillar according to Professor Schneider's instructions.
Professor Schneider thought that this was safe, but then he saw the rope begin to be rapidly retracted.
This is a sign of a broken rope, and the tightening force instantly loses its target, just like one party letting go in a tug-of-war.
"What's going on? How are you?" Professor Schneider asked immediately.
"We're fine." The team members were still approaching the bronze pillar. "What's wrong? Professor?"
"The rope connecting the submersible is broken, surface quickly!" Professor Schneider ordered.
"Broken? Okay, we'll surface now." The team members have not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
But Professor Schneider had already seen the creature, its long, spiky tail sweeping in front of the camera.
"It's targeting you! Get into combat mode immediately!" Professor Schneider roared.
The extent of the gap between hybrids and dragons has always been something the academy has been unable to accurately measure.
Sometimes it is said that the S-class can rival the second-generation species, and sometimes it is said that the first-generation species can be destroyed if they carry heavy firepower.
It could be that the dragon's state is erratic, or it could be that the academy has never seen the truly terrifying side of dragons.
The screen went black and all images disappeared.
Explosions from deep beneath the sea stirred up columns of water, and Professor Schneider shouted frantically.
The communication channel was silent.

"What should we do now? We don't have enough weapons to kill the dragon." EVA's breathing became rapid.
Finkel couldn't lie any more, EVA knew what was happening.
The white lie has been shattered and now is the time to accept reality.
"The water temperature in the sea area is dropping." Finkel looked at the thermometer. "Damn it, we haven't moved far, but now I can't see the door."
The bronze pillar disappeared, and they seemed to have entered another sea.
"EVA, you take over." Finkel picked up his knife and gun, "Go up, you must go up."
"What are you going to do?" EVA stopped Finkel.
"When you get out of the cabin, someone has to hold that guy back. Don't worry, I have faced more than one dragon, and this is just a little guy." Finkel comforted.
He hit his head hard. It really hurt. He really shouldn't have drunk alcohol.
But this is not about drinking, what happened today would have happened regardless of drinking or not.
Finkel just hopes that he can be in a good condition to face these things, but obviously his current condition is not that good.
"We can't stay in this little box forever and be kicked around like a ball by that dragon. It's okay, EVA. When I come back, we'll dance again," said Finkel.
There is not much oxygen left in the submersible. Just now, the dragon destroyed the submersible's oxygen device.
Fortunately, they brought diving equipment with them for this dive. Even if the submersible ran out of oxygen, the oxygen tanks would still be able to hold out for a while.
There is no problem in floating to the surface, but if you continue to waste time, it will be a big problem.
"According to the action plan, if we encounter an emergency, we should leave the cabin together," said EVA.
"You? Forget it, EVA, I'm afraid you'll hold me back." Finkel began to open the hatch of the inner cabin.
"What if you can't come back?" EVA asked.
Finkel was startled, but still pretended to be calm: "Impossible, that thing is at most a second-generation species. What are you afraid of? You said that I am a beast, and dragons have to retreat when they see me. Even if it is a first-generation species, I am still not afraid of anything. Don't worry, go up, even if I can't kill it, I will help you hold it back."
"Be careful. Using that word will put a strain on your body." EVA knew that she couldn't persuade this proud guy, so she could only give him a proper reminder.
"Don't worry, that guy won't make me use my full strength." Finkel waved at EVA and closed the door of the inner cabin.
The biting and cold sea water calmed Finkel down. He looked around and tried to use weapons for this unarmed submersible.
The submersible continued to move upwards, and to ensure safety, Finkel swam to the top of the submersible and stood there.
Like a knight on a white horse, facing off against a dragon.
But the evil dragon did not appear. Finkel did not dare to slack off. He held his gun and remained vigilant at all times.
He didn't know why the dragon disappeared, nor could he hear the wailing and cries for help from his team members.
On both sides of the mirror, if one side is peaceful, the other side is full of crises.
If this continues, we will be back on the surface of the sea in two hours.
It is a despicable thing that only dares to hide in the dark, which is a disgrace to the identity of a dragon.
----
"Did we just hit our target?"
"Maybe not."
"What the hell is that?"
"Like a dragon, but with some fish characteristics."
The team members talked to each other, trying to calm the panic with words.
The surrounding sea water began to solidify into ice. In this deep sea, with invisible undercurrents, it was almost impossible to freeze the sea water.
But this possibility is happening and we can only watch it.
The firepower carried by the submersible eased the process. They were racing against time to return to the surface as quickly as possible.
"I can't contact the professor."
"That thing appears again, open fire!"
"It's not an egg at all. It's a living dragon. The information is wrong!"
The torpedo was launched, but was swallowed by the giant creature.
The mocking laughter penetrated the metal layer of the submersible and reached everyone's ears.
The supreme majesty could not be blocked by the metal layer. The team members began to feel dazed and gradually lost their basic judgment ability.
They were laughing, singing, and dancing.
Life is passing by at a terrible speed, and they are gradually aging and their faces are covered with wrinkles.
The waters also began to freeze, and all life was completely locked in the huge ice.
There are still weapons on the submersible that have not been used. Their bloodline is so pathetic in front of this dragon, like a bunch of poor creatures.
In the dark seabed, they seemed to see light, the academy bell rang, and Valhalla was right before their eyes.
Wedding, this is the wedding scene.
They waved to the groom, Finkel danced with the bride on the stage in a well-fitting suit, and EVA was so beautiful.
"I'm so jealous...this guy..." Someone said this.
Then the light in everyone's eyes completely faded, and the ice stopped floating up and fell instead.
