Chapter 1 Prologue


January 8, Ross Sea, Antarctica.This is a large bay surrounded by a narrow coast of the South Pacific Ocean into the Antarctic continent, which is larger than the two provinces of Sichuan and Yunnan combined, and is covered by ice all year round.But at this moment, this quiet and distant sea of ice boiled, countless round penguins and seals staggered forward, jumping off the icy water, and the icebergs in the distance made a huge roar, that is, a patch of ice was melting and breaking."

It's strange" a whaling ship passing through the Ross Sea, and the crew on it looked sideways.Penguins leave some of their companions to look after their younger members, and it's weird to drag them in groups, regardless of whether the chicks have learned to swim or not."

Hurry away, it may be that the ice is broken, if you are trapped here, it will be trouble" The people on the boat all shouted, but somehow, the propeller turned slower and slower, and finally stopped at all, the motor made a screeching noise, and when the crew was scolding, suddenly the whole ship turned up and down strangely."

God, what's that" A long wrist and foot thicker than a bucket broke through the ice, and what made people shudder was that it was not a dense round suction cup, but an extremely sharp barb, and the water droplets rushed to fall from it, and the snow was so bright that it was reflected.Then a second one slammed into the hull with a crisp snap, and the steel creaked with a tooth-aching sound.The whaling ship lost its balance, its head was raised high, and the icy sea water poured in, and although the crew who fell off the deck grabbed something solid in time, the whole ship was already firmly entangled, and in less than fifteen seconds, it was already being dragged to the surface.Under the icy water, people will die in a minute, not drowning, but freezing to death.There are sturdy crews, who have stayed up a little longer, and at the last moment of their lives they desperately looked at the depths of the icy water, a pair of terrifyingly large black bright eyes stared at this side, and the huge body only stretched out three wrists and feet, and easily dragged a boat into the sea, two much longer tentacles floated in the sea, leisurely letting the seals and penguins trample on its body.Unbeknownst to the vain crew, the terrible changes were taking place above the Ross Sea.The ice melted at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the seals who didn't have time to escape let out a terrible wail.In the cold deep water, the sea monster's bulging brain door leaned back, stretched out its wrists and feet again, and the entire ice covering the sea water was vigorously beaten up by it, and immediately shattered into pieces, some penguins and seals fell into the sea smoothly, but it was still late, some were already convulsed in the water in pain, and immediately many seals and penguins swam over, and they did not hesitate to hit with their bodies, just to quickly carry these injured fellow citizens into the deep sea.At this time, the crew members who were frozen to death by the cold sea slowly sank, and the sea monster poked one by one with its barbed tentacles, probably wondering why these humans died faster when they reached a safe place.Sensing that all the breath of life on the ship was gone, the sea monster let go of the three wrists and feet that wrapped around the ship.The sturdy steel hull was visibly strangled and mottled with horrible patches of barbs from the sea monster's wrists and feet, the roughly triangular barbs with sharp tips that would rotate 360 degrees after being strangled and nothing could resist them.It was as if an invisible Grim Reaper was wreaking havoc, and in a matter of minutes, there was no more creature wailing above the Russ Sea.The sea has become the only barrier, and the boundary between life and death.In another fifteen minutes, the ice melted and the carcasses of the unfortunate creatures fell into the water, and the water temperature gradually increased, forcing the surviving penguins and seals to dive deeper than they could.They are not fish, and they have a limited amount of time they can spend underwater.And this squid-like shape, but more than forty meters long sea monster was swimming not far from the sea, and after a while, about sensing that the sea water had not been evaporated, it carefully poked out its tentacles to drill out of the sea, and the slender and long tip shook like tentacles and rubbed a long water mark from the sea surface, and then it immediately sank rapidly, echoing everywhere it reverberated a burst of infrasound waves that could not be identified by human ears.As if they had received the meaning of this message, the penguins and seals in the sea came to the surface.But some of them sank forever into the icy sea.Now there is only one whaling ship floating endlessly on the surface of the ice-free sea.This will probably be the legendary ghost ship, with the equipment on board intact but the crew all gone.Or the mottled marks on the hull of the ship can prove that it encountered a terrifying sea monster.The kind of terrifying creature that is said to attack ships and devour humans alive.At 15:51 on January 6, a certain country's satellite monitored a terrible change in the atmosphere of a magnetic field hole in the Ross Sea, resulting in the melting of 100,000 square kilometers of sea ice, and the direct irradiation killed many lives in ten minutes.The beginning of the apocalyptic movie or novel is like this: people are in a hurry to start the day's work, completely unaware that the shadow of death is gradually looming, the world is about to be destroyed, either the biochemical virus has spread, or the aliens have stopped outside the earth's orbit, in short, the tragic little people can only panic and struggle in despair in the face of sudden changes.But when the real end of the world comes, not only are there signs, but the scythe-wielding grim reaper is always moving slowly.But its movements were so slow that it was almost imperceptible.At most, people will say a few words about the increasingly weird climate, that there is no spring and autumn, that winter is right away from summer, that support environmental groups that promote the adverse effects of the ozone hole, that complain about growing global warming, and that's it.gd1806102:
