System: Master Your Life-Chapter 728 - 184: The Top-Tier Amazon Conquered by Xu Lin (Part 4)
Tilin followed and swam down as well.
Underneath the ocean, the deeper you go, the dimmer the light becomes, and the greater the pressure increases.
For instance, at a depth of two hundred meters, each square meter has to withstand 210 tons of weight.
The highest record of depth reached by a human without protection was set by the foreign adventurer Gion Neri, who dived to 113 meters.
However, that was the result of professional and long-term training, and a normal person can only dive up to about ten meters; even professional divers find it difficult to reach twenty meters.
Tilin is considered quite professional; she can dive over twenty meters.
But how deep is twenty meters?
In the country, twenty meters is already the height of a six-story building, so just think about how deep that is!
Beyond the twenty-meter ocean zone.
The atmosphere is terrifying.
A normal person would feel fear.
Even Tilin, no matter how brave she was, felt a sense of fear at this moment.
This is what is known as deep-sea phobia.
But Tilin found that Xu Lin seemed fearless.
How could he be so brave?
No!
This isn’t just bravery.
This young man, you can’t say he’s a normal person—it’s as if he doesn’t know fear.
But by this time, Tilin had been swimming for quite a while; in dynamic water, she couldn’t hold her breath too long, and the deeper you go, the greater the pressure, requiring more effort, leading to fatigue easily.
Tilin reached out and patted Xu Lin on the back.
Xu Lin turned around, only to see Tilin pointing upwards.
Her meaning was that she needed to go up for air.
And they were already at a depth of thirty meters.
Xu Lin nodded, and then surfaced together with Tilin.
Whoosh...
The moment they broke the surface, Tilin couldn’t help but gasp for air.
"How was it?"
Xu Lin asked her with a smile.
"You’re not a normal person at all!"
Tilin couldn’t help but say.
Xu Lin laughed, "Let’s rest for a bit and go back in."
"Okay."
After more than five minutes.
As Xu Lin dived down, Tilin followed him at once.
This time, the two of them dove into deeper waters.
Forty meters below.
It’s even darker here, intensifying the fear of the deep sea.
Then, they emerged again.
"The dark waters just now made me feel fear; I was afraid of being swallowed by the ocean!"
Tilin admitted, still shaken.
"You’re the only one who’s not afraid at all!"
Tilin looked at Xu Lin as if he were a monster.
Xu Lin laughed, "Because I know I won’t die, so I have no fear of death, and naturally, the ocean doesn’t scare me."
"You’re one brave scientist!"
Tilin marveled.
Can you imagine that there exists someone seemingly without fear at all?
In truth, Xu Lin isn’t entirely without fear.
His brain has been enhanced to calculate the risk factors, and he knows that at a certain depth in the ocean, with his physical fitness, swimming skills, and breath-holding capacity, he won’t be in trouble.
Moreover, there are no sharks here.
So, to him, the ocean at a certain depth is without danger.
If not for Tilin being unable to dive deeper, Xu Lin would have gone in further long ago.
He truly wants to challenge the ocean and test the limits.
"Do you want to try going even deeper?"
Xu Lin asked.
Tilin nodded. She is also someone who challenges herself, but there are limits to her ability.
Without a word, Xu Lin dived right in and began descending.
Tilin followed him down.
Soon, they reached the twilight zone of the ocean.
A surge of fear overwhelmed Tilin’s heart again. She told herself internally not to be afraid—if she challenges nature, she cannot fear.
She followed Xu Lin.
Time passed again.
This time, the two of them reached fifty meters below.
There’s still some light here, but it’s very dim.
It’s dark, like night, visibility already very low, requiring a light source.
Where’s Xu Lin?
Tilin couldn’t see Xu Lin anymore.
She instinctively felt more afraid.
She wanted to call him, but how could she shout under the sea?
Moreover, she seemed to be disoriented.
Where is Xu Lin?
Especially as Tilin’s breath-holding limit approached, she couldn’t breathe.
Tilin felt suffocated, unable to help but struggled a few times.
Her fear reached its pinnacle.
However, at this moment, a strong hand grabbed her.
It was Xu Lin.
That fearless scientist!
At this moment, Tilin realized he had embraced her.
He wrapped one arm around her waist and placed the other under her hips.
They were face-to-face, pressed against one another.
Instinctively, under her fear, Tilin held him tighter.
He leaned in and sealed her mouth with his.
Mmm!
Soon, Tilin realized he was giving her oxygen.
Additionally, he was kicking with his legs to swim.
Tilin knew her legs were in his way, so she hooked her legs around his waist, enabling him to move his legs freely.
Xu Lin, holding onto her, continued diving.
He hadn’t reached his limit yet.
He wanted to go deeper.
Tilin felt it too.
This man is unbelievably brave!
How can he be so daring?
Is he a superhero from the movies?
Tilin was terrified yet couldn’t help but feel a ripple inside.
Xu Lin’s actions stirred within her the most primitive of emotions.
That feeling existed long before humans even emerged.
Admiration for strength!
In the ancient times when only the strong could become leaders and dominators.
Even into the primitive society and civilized society.
The admiration for strength remains integral in shaping human society.
