Chapter 220: By the Sea (2)
According to calculations, the mysterious, radiation-contaminated sea area had a depth of roughly 600 meters.
At that depth, the water pressure was already extremely high. Ordinary divers could not possibly descend; they would need professional manned submersibles.
But that certainly couldn’t stop the Americans who loved courting death.
The strange infectious disease that had erupted in Gilosha City was simply too bizarre. Its popularity was unprecedented. Whether it was to ride the traffic wave or to satisfy excessive curiosity, exploring that mysterious sea area was the best option.
So, before the investigation team managed to contact an offshore oil company that owned deep-sea manned submersibles and borrow the necessary equipment, more than one group of civilians had already visited the mysterious waters under the banner of “exploration and truth-seeking.”
Of course, these people still valued their lives.
At most, they only had ordinary diving suits and oxygen tanks. No one possessed professional-grade submersibles with pressure-resistant cabins. As a result, their dives were limited to within 100 meters of the surface; most of them only went down to around 40 meters, circled briefly, filmed some underwater scenery, and then returned to shore.
Even so, any diving video tagged with #MysteriousSeaArea or #RadiationSea attracted a huge audience. A diving influencer named Herbert even once made it onto the weekly top-viewed videos list of the platform.
Out of curiosity, Everly opened his famous video.
