YM778.TV Chapter 365 What! An Alien Weapons?
Liu Yong graciously accepted the coffee, giving a reassuring smile. "I\'m fine. Take a break for an hour or two, and then I\'ll head down."
Relieved by his boss\'s response, Chen Hu set his mind at ease and began preparing dinner. The yacht\'s lights flickered to life as the evening approached. In the cozy kitchen, Chen Hu efficiently worked on the meal. Most of the ingredients were already prepared, requiring only a quick heating before serving.
During their time on the yacht, Chen Hu had not wasted any time. He had successfully caught a few large fish, ensuring a delightful seafood dinner for the night.
Meanwhile, while sipping his coffee, Liu Yong focused on the pet panel, where he monitored the attributes of his faithful companion, the mutant snapping turtle named Bawang.
Pet name: Bawang (mutant snapping turtle)
Weight: 972 tons
Power: 59325 Physique: 59012
Agility: 58665
Swimming speed: 345 nautical miles

Pondering Bawang\'s incredible growth, Liu Yong wondered if the snapping turtle could soon break through the 1,000-ton mark.
Liu Yong held high hopes for Bawang, wishing it would surpass the 1,000-ton milestone in the future. Such an achievement would enable Bawang to delve even deeper into the mysterious seabed, allowing Liu Yong to extend his stay at the astonishing depth of 3,300 meters.
However, time was their most pressing challenge. The limited duration Liu Yong could spend at the bottom of the sea restricted the scope of his exploration. Even during the initial dive into the spaceship wreckage, he had barely scratched the surface, merely familiarizing himself with the environment inside.
The second dive yielded better results, taking him further down, where he discovered the body of an alien.
Contemplating the significance of this extraterrestrial corpse, Liu Yong activated his third-party vision. In the holographic display, he saw Bawang stationed near the entrance to the spaceship\'s wreckage, and right beside it lay the alien remains.
Liu Yong marvelled at the sight, not only impressed by the immense presence of Bawang but also intrigued by the mysterious nature of the alien corpse.
The sight before Liu Yong was both awe-inspiring and mysterious. Standing over five meters tall, the colossal alien corpse bore little resemblance to any human form. Its peculiar armour shrouded its entire body with a transparent mask resembling glass, though he couldn\'t be sure. Gazing through the show, he observed the alien\'s remains had decomposed, leaving nothing but bones.
"Wow!" Liu Yong exclaimed, taken aback by the startling transformation. Just moments ago, when he had pulled the corpse from the ocean depths, it still retained its skeletal structure. But now, the bones had vanished, replaced by darkened mud.
Swiftly calculating in his mind, Liu Yong surmised that this otherworldly corpse had been submerged in the sea for an incredible 50,000 years. Its preservation was relatively stable until his intervention disrupted the delicate balance, causing the remaining bones to degrade rapidly into a muddy mess.
While the alien\'s corpse itself appeared to be of little value, Liu Yong couldn\'t help but be intrigued by the extraordinary suit of armour adorning it. He scrutinized it closely, considering the possibility of salvaging and returning it for further examination.
Yet, his aspirations were dashed, for he knew that with the current level of technology and limited resources at his disposal, attempting any meaningful scientific research on the armour would be futile. Even the thought of donating it to his country crossed his mind momentarily, but he quickly dismissed the idea, realizing the unexplainable nature of his discovery.
How could he possibly tell his government that the ocean\'s depths concealed the remains of an alien spacecraft lying more than 3,000 meters below the surface?
As Liu Yong ruled out various options, his attention shifted to an alien weapon on the armour—an intriguing device reminiscent of the assault rifles used by their own military but bulkier in design. Captivated by its enigmatic technology, he resolved to retrieve it and study it thoroughly. If the weapon were still functional, the potential implications and rewards would make his numerous dives into the ocean\'s depths entirely worthwhile.
Beyond the weapon, Liu Yong nurtured the hope of uncovering more valuable artifacts amidst the wreckage of the alien spacecraft. His thoughts wandered to the intelligent computer systems the aliens might have employed, harbouring advanced technologies that could revolutionize the entire human race.
Following a brief rest after dinner, Liu Yong was reinvigorated and prepared to venture back into the ocean\'s depths. With a reliable light source, he descended from the yacht\'s aft deck again.
Nighttime submerged the seawater in darkness, necessitating the use of Liu Yong\'s underwater light source when he reached a depth of tens of meters. From the yacht\'s deck, Chen Hu watched the bright light source recede deeper into the abyss.
Liu Yong pressed onward, accompanied by the Overlord, swimming towards the massively damaged cavity in the alien spacecraft. He had become familiar with the route, having ventured into the vessel twice before.
Finally, he arrived at the spot where the alien corpse had previously been found, half-hoping to stumble upon another one. However, his search yielded nothing, leaving him with only the continued exploration of the seemingly boundless space.
The scale of the spaceship was overwhelming, making Liu Yong feel insignificant in comparison. He pushed forward for several minutes, arriving at a colossal metallic gateway standing over 20 meters tall and over 10 meters wide.
Determined to access the other side, Liu Yong attempted to open the door, but it remained stubbornly shut. His eyes scanned for a control switch or mechanism that might grant him entry, but his search proved fruitless. The imposing door seemed impenetrable, defying all his attempts to move it even slightly.
Liu Yong found himself with no other option but to abandon the search and reluctantly began his ascent, ascending from the ocean floor depths, where he had ventured to a staggering 3,300 meters below the surface. The pressurized environment allowed him only a mere ten minutes to explore this alien realm before the limitations of his equipment forced him to resurface.
During his return, Liu Yong carried a reliable light source to sweep his surroundings, hoping to catch a glimpse of the elusive second alien, but to no avail. The creature seemed to have vanished without a trace.
Emerging from the compromised hole in the ship\'s hull, Liu Yong carefully retrieved the peculiar weapon left behind by the extraterrestrial visitor. Its design and technology were beyond anything he had ever encountered, making him wonder about its origins and capabilities.
Gazing at the alien armour that adorned the lifeless body, Liu Yong signalled his trusty companion, Bawang, to dispose of it by tossing it into the spaceship. The decision was made out of precaution, to ensure no potential danger lingered aboard the yacht.
Clutching the extraordinary weapon in one hand and the trusty light source in the other, Liu Yong propelled himself through the crystalline waters, heading back towards the surface with a mix of excitement and trepidation in his heart.
Twenty minutes later, Liu Yong reached the familiar surface and returned to the sturdy yacht. He wasted no time in shedding his rubber diving suit, eagerly welcoming the comfort of a warm shower before slipping into clean and comfortable clothes. The mysteries of the deep would have to wait as it was time to set course for their return journey.
Liu Yong issued a command to Chen Hu, the yacht\'s skilled captain, instructing him to initiate their voyage back home. Reflecting on his three consecutive dives, Liu Yong recognized his limitations and knew he had to grow stronger before further exploring. The ocean held wonders and secrets beyond comprehension, and he aimed to uncover them, but only when he could endure longer stays at its unfathomable depths.
With a firm resolve to return someday with more outstanding prowess, Liu Yong found himself in the ship\'s restroom, attentively studying the alien weapon. It\'s intricate craftsmanship and alien technology fascinated him, setting his mind ablaze with questions and possibilities. This extraordinary artifact could hold the key to humanity\'s understanding of a larger universe that lay beyond its reach.
