Chapter 184 Su Ze, when will you come back?
……
On the vast blue sea of Blue Star, an oil extraction platform like a steel behemoth stands proudly.
It is like an isolated island in the ocean, roaring day and night, extracting the blood of human civilization - oil - from the deep seabed.
This is not only a source of energy, but also a symbol of human exploration and conquest of natural power.
Around the platform, hundreds of fish-chasing ships act like loyal guards, weaving a dense safety net.
They use improved sonar technology to gently but firmly drive away curious or accidentally approaching marine life, protecting the safety and order of the operating area.
Among these many warships, a particularly eye-catching ship was sailing slowly. It was flying a bright red flag and the emblem of the shelter, symbolizing the dual mission of human unity and protecting nature.
On the side of the ship, two old friends, Zhang Beihai and Wu Yue, stood side by side.
Their shadows were stretched out in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if also stretching out their memories of the past and their longing for the future.
"Looking at the killer whales, they are getting bigger and their numbers seem to be higher than they were 10 years ago."
There was a hint of emotion in Wu Yue's voice. His eyes followed the sea monsters that were temporarily dispersed by the sonar beam, and ripples appeared in his heart.
He is aware that behind this is not only the indirect impact of the reduction of human activities on the marine ecology, but also the subtle changes in the balance of nature after losing humans as "regulators".
Upon hearing this, Zhang Beihai sighed softly and looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if he could see through the layers of waves and see to the end of the ocean.
“Humans are indeed part of nature. Our existence, whether it is construction or destruction, is invisibly shaping the face of this planet.”
There was a hint of philosophy in his words.
“But as you said, the ecological changes in the ocean also remind us that every life has its meaning and value, including those seemingly insignificant fish and shrimp.
Without them, the ocean ecosystem will be unsustainable, and we humans will not be immune to it either.”
Wu Yue turned to look at Zhang Beihai, his eyes flashing with complicated emotions.
He knew that although this "old colleague" always appeared calm and rational, he had a burning heart deep down inside and had immense faith and expectations in human civilization.
What he believes in is not only humanity as a whole, but also the possibility that humans can transcend themselves and coexist harmoniously with nature.
"Speaking of him..."
Wu Yue suddenly changed the subject and looked up at the equally boundless blue sky. There, a few white clouds were floating leisurely, as if carrying endless thoughts and hopes.
"Su Ze, the guy who always brings miracles at critical moments, when do you think he will come back?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Beihai curled up the corner of his mouth into a faint smile, which contained both expectation and determination.
"I don't know, I really don't know." He shook his head gently.
“But like I said, no matter how time passes, no matter where we are, he will always come back.
Because he is one of us, a symbol of the spirit of never giving up and always moving forward."
At this point, a hint of barely perceptible confusion flashed across Zhang Beihai's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.
He believes that no matter what difficulties and challenges we face, as long as there is light and hope in human hearts, nothing is impossible.
And Su Ze is the one who can ignite the fire of hope and lead them forward.
The sea breeze blows gently, carrying the salty smell of the sea and the call from afar.
Zhang Beihai and Wu Yue stood quietly, letting time freeze at this moment. Their hearts were filled with infinite longing for the future and deep nostalgia for the past.
Su Ze, when will you come back?
……
Blue Star.
Deep in the abandoned manor forgotten by time, Luo Ji, a once elegant scholar, now appears in a completely different look.
His beard was untrimmed, hanging casually on his chest, as if each strand carried the weight of past stories and thoughts.
Clenched tightly in his hand was another cup of wheat wine that he had brewed himself. The golden liquid glowed softly under the dim light, reflecting the subtle sadness in his eyes.
Empty wine bottles are scattered all around, standing or falling, like fragments of time, recording countless nights of loneliness and self-exile.
Luo Ji burped slightly, but that was not real drunkenness, but a kind of release and escape from the depths of his soul.
His gaze penetrated the dilapidated window frame and turned to the vibrant fields in the distance.
There was the farm he had built with his own hands, vast and boundless, with emerald green wheat everywhere.
They thrive under the sunshine, not only providing food for the residents of the area, but also representing Luo Ji's endless longing and sustenance for his past friends.
Whenever he saw the wheat waves swaying in the wind, he would feel an inexplicable comfort in his heart, as if Su Ze had never left and was still by his side.
Brewing wine became one of Luo Ji's ways to relieve his loneliness.
He carefully selects each grain of wheat and blends it meticulously to brew the purest and most mellow wine.
Whenever the aroma of wine filled the air, he would always think of the time he drank with Su Ze, the laughter, the discussions about dreams and the future, which have now turned into the aftertaste of the wine, leaving people with endless aftertaste.
However, behind this achievement and satisfaction lies a deep longing and expectation for old friends.
"My friend, when will you come back?"
Luo Ji murmured softly, raised his glass, and saluted towards the vast sky.
At that moment, his eyes were filled with complex emotions, including nostalgia for the past, longing for the future, and even more desire for reunion.
At this moment, a rapid and firm knock on the door broke the tranquility of the abandoned manor, as if injecting a touch of vitality into this sleepy corner.
There was a sudden knock on Luo Ji's door.
Then, a farmer with dark skin and traces of time on his face hurried in.
His eyes were filled with anxiety, and his voice trembled slightly due to nervousness: "Master Luo, something bad has happened. That key machine has stopped working again!"
When Luo Ji heard this, the wine glass in his hand trembled slightly, and then he placed it steadily on the ground. The decadence and loneliness on his face seemed to be blown away in an instant by a breeze.
He stood up, his eyes flashing with unprecedented determination and concentration, and the rigor and enthusiasm of a scientist shone again.
"Don't worry, we'll take care of it right away." His words were brief and powerful, revealing his unquestionable determination.
Then he grabbed the toolbox beside him and strode towards the door, urging the dark-skinned farmer to lead the way while secretly thinking about the possible causes of the failure.
With the departure of the two, the house returned to silence, with only the sunlight pouring in from the window, becoming a witness to this moment of tranquility.
It was gently sprinkled on the forgotten cup of wheat wine, the golden light and the wine complementing each other, as if even the sunlight was silently evaporating the aroma of the wine, adding a touch of warmth and expectation to those who had not yet tasted it.
……
Deep in the vast ocean, an unknown and mysterious world slowly unfolds its magnificent picture.
The sunlight can only penetrate a thin layer of water on the surface, leaving behind mottled light and shadows, but beneath the dark and deep blue curtain, there are countless secrets and miracles that have never been touched by humans.
Cheng Xin is wearing a high-tech diving suit, like a bright spot in the deep sea, and is carrying out today's underwater exploration mission.
On her shoulders, two brightly colored eye pods - one orange and one yellow, flashing a faint but firm light.
They are not only her loyal partners, but also her great helpers in the exploration process.
Their main function is to persuade the beasts that want to attack them, or in other words, to protect those beasts.
After all, at this moment her other arm was tightly embracing a strange creature named "173 Peanut", which was a containment object from another universe. With its amazing teleportation ability, it became the key to exploring the treasures on the seabed.
173 Peanut, although the name sounds a bit playful, its essence is made of solid concrete. Although it is small in size, it contains incredible power.
It had just "squeezed" out of a narrow gap with difficulty, and a few light blue jellyfish tentacles that were accidentally touched were still hanging on its back. Those jellyfish swam away in fear, as if they were full of fear of this uninvited guest.
"I've already told you that he has no eyes and no neck, why are you running over there?"
There was a hint of blame in Cheng Xin's words, but she couldn't hide her love and helplessness for 173 Xiaohuasheng.
She gently tapped its "head", which looked hard but was actually sensitive, her eyes filled with a complex emotion of pampering and blame.
Since Su Ze's departure, human beings' desire for marine resources has become stronger, and the 343 organization has set its sights on this tempting seabed.
The bottleneck of technology once restricted their progress, but with the continuous deepening of the research on the contained objects, Peanut's teleportation ability was cleverly applied to seabed exploration, opening a new era of human exploration of the ocean.
Because of her gentle yet resolute character, Cheng Xin is hailed as a "Virgin Mary" and is given the important task of "Underwater Pioneer".
Not only does she possess outstanding leadership and decision-making abilities, she is also full of curiosity and awe of the unknown world.
Under her leadership, Eye Bean and 173 Peanuts formed a rare expedition team, traveling through the deep seabed in search of treasures and secrets that had been dormant for billions of years.
Their efforts were not in vain, and a series of major discoveries followed.
The oil fields hidden under the sea are being revealed one by one. These precious resources will provide strong support for the future of mankind.
"Okay, stop wasting time. We haven't completed our mission today. Let's go!"
Cheng Xin patted Peanut's head and leapt towards the distant ocean.
As they continued to swim to the other side of the ocean, Cheng Xin did not notice that in the gap that Peanut 173 had just rushed into, there lay a grayish-white fragment of the Irrational Root.
This fragment was a relic left over from the earth-shaking battle between Suze and Crimson Wade. It lay there quietly.
For 173 Peanut, this piece of debris is not only ownerless, but also the only trace left by its owner.
Although it has no words and no expressions, its loyalty and longing for its master are silently witnessed by the ocean through its every desperate exploration and pursuit.
