Monica’s eyes flickered as she slowly spoke, "The geothermal microorganisms have decreased, indicating that we have already moved away from the underwater volcanic cluster."

Several compartments of the Infinity have already shown visible deformation and are twisted like a pretzel when viewed from the inside, but the outside pressure hull has not shown any tearing. This situation is entirely due to Lin Xian’s continuous repairs while lacking the ability to reset, which caused the vehicle body to twist.

However, these are of no concern to Lin Xian; as long as the compartments do not crack open, they can be slowly repaired later.

Inside the compartments, numerous pipelines have burst as a result, and the science research cabins inside compartments 4 and 3 are in complete disarray and severely damaged, with many scientific instruments and lab benches being destroyed.

Here in the medical cabin, Chen Sixuan, Ding Junyi, Xiao Yuan, and Miao Lu are gathered around. Currently lying inside is KIKI, with the full-effect medical cabin scanning her.

"Just like Ryuji, there’s no major issue, all caused by psychic overload, although there will be some physical damage."

Ding Junyi then took out two vials of cold dark reagent from a box and handed them to Xiao Yuan: "Give one to Ryuji and inject the other one into KIKI, it will relieve a lot of it."

"Also," she spoke to Miao Lu, "take the Hell Black Chrysanthemum to compartment 6. The energy radiating from the Black Chrysanthemum is significant now, probably absorbed and transformed from the explosion on the Island and the appearance of the Giant Ocean God. Placing it there can help everyone recover more quickly."

"Alright," Xiao Yuan and Miao Lu both responded.

Chen Sixuan, seeing KIKI’s condition stabilize, immediately turned to the cockpit. Lin Xian was sitting at the driver’s seat drinking water, looking at the dark ocean currents ahead, with the spotlight piercing the abyss but showing no end, only endless seawater.

Shi Zhi sat in another seat, raising her hand and seriously casting the superpower of spirit purification towards Lin Xian, with an eerie green light flickering incessantly in the space.

"We’ve escaped from that sea area, at least a hundred nautical miles away."

Seeing Chen Sixuan enter, Lin Xian spoke without turning his head.

Chen Sixuan walked up beside Lin Xian, glanced at Shi Zhi, and then looked ahead with a complex expression, "Where does this ocean current lead to? It’s already night now, it’d be troublesome if we encounter other monsters."

"Not for now." Lin Xian slightly closed his eyes, with his expression easing: "So many large monsters are gathered on Sea Rock Island, even more bustling than Dawn City. I fear that monsters within hundreds of nautical miles have been attracted there; the ones left are either Little Kalami or S-Class ones. We’ve already been unlucky enough, shouldn’t encounter them."

Chen Sixuan couldn’t help but smile a little, speaking to Lin Xian with some inexplicable emotion: "First time seeing you so optimistic."

Lin Xian sighed, with a look of hopelessness.

"It’s irrelevant now, I really don’t have much energy left, this ocean current direction is somewhat east-west, although deviating from the oceanic route, it probably won’t directly confront any monsters, where it leads is where we go, right." He looked towards Viola.

Viola, hands behind her back, acts like the brain and helmsman of the Infinity, with all the internal controls and sensors under her calculation.

[According to data, this Jingyuan Vortex Channel primarily flows along the East Sea Shelf towards the northeast, expanding eastwards after passing the southern sea area of Queensland Island, meaning if we follow this stable current, we may reach the Queensland Island sea area in about 3 hours, which is 1100 nautical miles straight-line distance from the Republican Islands.]

[Additionally, my analysis is that unlike other ocean currents or warm currents, due to its special formation reason, this vortex channel has fast flow speed, narrow flow width, and lesser vertical thickness, and abnormal bodies won’t appear in such currents. Plus, with our high-speed movement, except for structural issues, it’s relatively much safer. However, upon entering the East Sea Shelf, this vortex will expand greatly, and the flow speed will slow down.]

"By then we should either leave the current and surface or... stay at the seabed until daylight." Lin Xian stated his plan.

Chen Sixuan nodded, looking at the dark abyss outside with a solemn expression, "Didn’t think we survived such a terrifying vortex."

"Thanks to KIKI and Ryuji."

Lin Xian exhaled deeply, "Without two telekinesis people, really wouldn’t know what to do, would probably be certain death."

After speaking, Lin Xian suddenly got up and unexpectedly said

"Alright, sleep."

"Sleep?" Chen Sixuan looked towards Lin Xian, despite feeling a lot of heartache for Lin Xian’s exhaustion, the Infinity is currently in turmoil, not to mention being thousands of meters deep in a seabed current, with abyssal turbulence outside, by Lin Xian’s original character, this situation would be highly vigilant, why suddenly sleep now.

"Viola, it’s up to you."

Lin Xian got up and walked towards the bedroom in compartment 1, saying to Chen Sixuan: "Behind us is volcanic eruption, Giant Ocean God hunting, outside is the 8th Star Abyss tide, eerie spreading above and below the sea, ahead is uncertainty, since it’s like this, might as well take this chance... sleep well."

Lin Xian hadn’t closed his eyes for days, even suffering psychic exhaustion just now, as he watched the countdown in his eyes

14:19:11

feeling a mix of emotions, this countdown seemed to never stop, no matter the situation, as if some kind of ominous sign hanging overhead. Lin Xian even once pondered, if he died, would this countdown still exist, or perhaps there’s a possibility, that before this countdown ends, he cannot die.
