Leveling Up With My Pet
Chapter 47 Deep Sea Salvage Robot

"Boss, I've heard that the police contacted Global Marine Services as well to recover that set of items."

Xu Shufei remarked,

"They are not capable of handling it. From what I understand, they have only been in business for under a month. How can they even compete with us?"

"Boss, do you want to intimidate them so they stay away from getting involved?"

After some consideration, Xu Shufei responded,

"Not at the moment. The water depth is around seven to eight hundred meters, which poses a significant challenge for us. They certainly wouldn't be able to handle it."

They are still on the way, and the Overlord is already there.

Although Bawang is not operating at full speed, it can still travel at 50 to 60 knots per hour so it will take a little time. Upon reaching the destination, Bawang reported promptly.

"Master, I have arrived."

The Overlord informed Liu Yong.

Liu Yong was ecstatic, impressed by Bawang's exceptional speed. As an overlord, Bawang's velocity surpassed any other ship's, reaching the rate of ninety-nine percent of fish.

"Overlord, those are a batch of guns, they should be packed in a big box, you can contact me at any time during the search."

"No problem, Master."

Bawang was brimming with confidence as it commenced its descent to the ocean floor. At a depth of 300 to 400 meters, the water became completely dark, and beyond 500 meters, visibility got significantly reduced to the point where one could hardly see their fingers.

Overlord has keen perception; no matter how dark the environment is, it will not be affected; at least the radius of 100 meters will not be affected by anything.

It didn't take long to reach the bottom of the sea. Immediately, it reported again:

"Master, the situation on the bottom of the sea is not ideal. It is not flat, but very complicated."

The ocean floor was littered with large rocks, potholes, and numerous small hills, indicating the presence of an underwater mountain range. Under such conditions, it would be particularly challenging to locate objects.

Liu Yong comforted: "There is no rush, let's look for it slowly, there are at least a few hours for us to look for."

Despite the complexity of the underwater terrain, it was still early evening and not even noon. Bawang had originally been nearly a hundred nautical miles away from this sea area, which equates to approximately a hundred and tens of kilometers. It managed to arrive in just about an hour.

With enough time, Bawang began to search carefully and earnestly at the bottom of the sea.

The salvage ship of Dianshi Company was still sailing at full speed on the land. Bawang searched here for nearly two hours before reaching this sea area.

The salvage ship came to a halt and commenced various operations. It first utilized special equipment to measure the depth of the sea, along with the temperature and speed of the ocean current.

Upon completing the necessary measurements, they deployed their deep-sea salvage robot. The imported salvage robot can operate at depths of up to one thousand meters, and the water depth at this location falls well within its operational range.

The robot commenced its descent, and within ten minutes, it reached the ocean floor. The salvage ship received an update on the situation, and one person exclaimed in surprise.

"Boss, come and take a look, the situation on the bottom of the sea is far more complicated than we expected."

Xu Shufei hurried over to inspect the situation on the screen, but his heart sank as he took it all in. He knew the chances of replaceing and salvaging the guns within a few hours were virtually nonexistent.

Given the complex conditions on the ocean floor, the difficulty of the search had significantly increased. It was doubtful they could locate the guns within a few hours, let alone within a few days.

Xu Shufei was keen on completing the salvage mission and viewed it as an opportunity to establish closer ties with the police. However, given the circumstances, it was simply impossible. He reluctantly took out his phone and made a call.

"Captain Pan, our deep-sea salvage robot has reached the ocean floor. However, the terrain is extremely complex down there. It is unlikely that we can complete the search within a few hours, let alone locate and salvage the guns in that time frame."

Upon hearing this news, Captain Pan of the Eastern District Bureau got taken aback. Fully aware of the significance of recovering the lost guns, he responded anxiously:

"Mr. Xu, we still have a few hours left. We must make every effort to locate them. Please continue with the search."

Xu Shufei said discouragedly:

There is no such possibility. I am engaged in salvage work, and I know that in such a complicated seabed situation, let alone a few hours, even a few days, may not be enough."

"Then what should we do?"

Captain Pan hesitated for a while and said,

"You guys should continue to salvage. Try your luck, and I will report to the leader."

The situation was soon reported to several high-ranking officials, including the head of the Eastern Bureau.

Suddenly, the leaders were under a lot of pressure.

Several leaders sat together, smoking while discussing countermeasures.

The director of the Eastern District Bureau said:

"Everyone, everyone is aware of the situation. When the time comes, we must be ready to release people."

A deputy director said unwillingly:

"We spent so much energy collecting intelligence for follow-up, and finally captured the scene of their transaction, and this is the result."

The bureau chief sighed,

"We don't have key evidence, and the suspects are tight-lipped and refused to recruit at all. We can only release them."

"Among these few suspects, two are from country M, and the leaders of the Municipal Bureau are also under great pressure. They have repeatedly urged that there must be solid evidence. If we don't have stolen goods, things will be difficult to handle."

One by one, they expressed their discouragement as their hearts filled with frustration and reluctance.

As the deputy director, Gao Dake remained silent until everyone had finished speaking. He revealed: "I took matters into my own hands and did not inform Global Ocean Services to withdraw from the salvage operation. Just a moment ago, I personally contacted Liu Yong, the company's leader, by phone."

"He informed me that they had already begun the search on the seabed. Based on his tone, replaceing and salvaging the guns shouldn't be a significant issue for them."

"What?"

"Not a big problem!"

"Is this real?"

Several deputy directors, including the director of the sub-bureau, looked at Gao Dake in surprise, seriously thinking that their ears had heard it wrong.

"Old Gao, you didn't lie to us, did you?"

Gao Dake said: "I didn't lie to everyone, what I said was true."

Suddenly it became lively, everyone was very discouraged at first, but now they seem to see hope.

One of the deputy directors said hopefully:

"It would be great if Universal could help me replace those guns."

The director of the East District Bureau also said:

"Yes, if they can replace these guns, then I have to apologize to the person in charge of this company. I underestimated them."

"In the current situation, we can only pin our hopes on Universal and hope that there will be good news."

Many people looked at the time and prayed in their hearts.

At this time, Overlord was still seriously searching the seabed.

The situation at the bottom of the sea is so complicated, affecting the search for the Overlord and increasing the entire search's difficulty.

More than two hours passed, yet nothing was found.

"Master, I have searched this place, but I didn't replace it. Maybe I made a mistake. Even if it was a needle, I found it."
