Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, Sir, please do as you wish

The main content of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea": In 1866, some ships discovered a shiny monster in different places on the sea. It was hundreds of meters long and occasionally surfaced. After many ships were attacked and sunk by this monster, the U.S. government sent the frigate "Lincoln" to track and pursue it. French biologist Aronas was invited to participate. This professor at the Paris Natural History Museum had written an article on this marine monster and believed it to be a huge narwhal. The "Lincoln" cruised in the sea for three weeks, but found nothing. One night, Aronas was admiring the night view on the deck, when he suddenly noticed a red light flashing in the dark water, and then a huge thing appeared. Aronas rushed back to the cabin to report to the captain, and the frigate immediately sailed towards the monster. As the Canadian harpooner Ned Land approached, he threw the sharp harpoon with all his strength. There was only a "ding" sound, as if it hit the steel plate and had no effect. The frigate opened fire, but the bombs were all ejected from the monster's tail, causing a splash. The monster seemed to be enraged. It sprayed two jets of water from its head and struck hard at the starboard side of the frigate. With a loud bang, Aronas, his servant Conseil and the whale harpooner were thrown into the water. , and finally came to the monster - the submarine, and was carried into the iron room by the sailors. When they woke up from a tired sleep, they saw two strangers coming in to greet them, but they tried several languages, but they couldn't understand them. When they were in trouble, their captain appeared. He was a tall man with bright eyes and introduced himself in French. His name was Nemo, and he claimed to have severed ties with all humankind. He said that although they were his prisoners, they were still free. Just to keep it secret, he would not release them and demanded that they obey his orders. Although the professor felt sad about losing his freedom, he was still attracted by the mysterious submarine and the mysteries of the seabed. At the invitation of Captain Nemo, the three of them visited the "Nautilus" which he personally designed and built. Although its parts are pieced together, the hull is strong, the structure is reasonable, and it can withstand the impact and high pressure of sea water. The boat has a beautiful living room, comfortable sleeping cabin, library and entertainment area. The submarine's power and oxygen are extracted from sea water and can stay on the seabed for a long time. Food is also taken from the ocean, and there are some delicious fish that the professor has never tasted. The cloth is woven from marine fibers and the tobacco leaves come from seaweed. The captain also showed them the guns used to hunt marine animals and the equipment used to facilitate walking on the seabed. The "Nautilus" stalks the Pacific Ocean. Through the glass window, Aaronnas watched the bizarre underwater scenes and colorful deep-sea creatures. When passing by Crispo Island, the captain sent a note inviting the three of them to hunt in the underwater forest. So they put on diving suits, carried oxygen bottles on their backs, held special shotguns, passed through the pressure changing chamber, and walked on the submarine plain. The captain shot a big sea otter with his gun, then killed two dolphin-like animals, and returned home with a full load. When the submarine arrived near Kalimantan, it ran out of food. Aronnax and the three of them decided to go ashore in search of vegetables and game. At first, they were lucky, killing a few wild boars and picking a lot of fruits. Just as they were setting up a bonfire on the beach to prepare a barbecue, they were suddenly attacked by the indigenous people. They hurriedly fled into the boat and headed towards the submarine anchored in the sea. But the natives boarded the raft and were reluctant to leave. Even though Aronas and the others climbed onto the submarine and got off the bottom, the indigenous people still surrounded the submarine and refused to disperse. In addition, Conseil angered them again. Early the next morning, when the submarine opened its cabin for ventilation, the indigenous people climbed on board to attack. But as soon as their hands touched the railing, they screamed and shrank back. It turned out that the metal railings were all electrified. The submarine sailed into the Indian Ocean. Near Sri Lanka, the captain invited Aronas and the others to visit the pearl quarry on the bottom of the sea. Pearls are abundant here, and the largest ones are worth up to two million US dollars. Aronnax watched with great interest the Indians fishing for pearls on the seabed. Suddenly, a giant shark opened its mouth and attacked the Indians. The captain immediately stepped forward to fight the shark with a short knife in his hand. Ned Land raised his fork to help, hitting the shark's heart. The captain immediately lifted the pearl diver out of the water and took out a few pearls from his pocket to give to him. Aronas admired Nemo's spirit of sacrificing himself to save others from the bottom of his heart, and from this he knew that the captain had actually not severed contact with human beings. It took the Nautilus less than 20 minutes to enter the Mediterranean from the Red Sea. It was sneaked through an undersea channel discovered by the captain. There was no Suez Canal at that time. Along the way, Aronas discovered many surprising things. When the ship arrived at Kandy Island, the captain took out a lot of gold from the cabinet and sent someone to send it out in a small boat.

Later, when the submarine sailed into the Atlantic and anchored at the bottom of Vidor Bay, the captain sent his crew to dive and bring up boxes filled with gold and silver treasures from the sunken ship. It turns out that the captain used the treasures salvaged from the sunken ship to relieve the poor and engage in scientific exploration. At the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, the captain accompanied Aronas to visit the long-sunken continent-Atlantis. They watched the spectacle of sulfurous slurry spitting out from the vents of underwater volcanoes, and also inspected the ruins of Pompeii. The submarine headed for the Antarctic again, passing through groups of whales. When the pointed whale attacks the fin whale, the captain, out of sympathy for the weak, directs the crew to attack the pointed whale. During the subsequent voyage, they experienced many hardships and dangers. Sometimes they were blocked by icebergs, sometimes they were besieged by octopuses, and sometimes they were attacked by enemy ships. With amazing perseverance and wisdom, the captain commanded the entire crew and overcame everything. But in the end, the captain commanded the submarine to sink an unknown ship, which made Aronas unbearable. After sailing around the world for 20,000 miles under the sea, the submarine encountered a terrifying whirlpool on the west coast of Norway. Aronnax and others finally escaped. Aronas had no way of knowing what happened to the submarine after it was involved in the maelstrom, because he and his companions narrowly escaped on a small island in Norway after being thrown into the water by the whirlpool, and the submarine was no longer traceable

< p>Chapter One: The Flying Reef

People must still remember a bizarre, mysterious, and unexplainable thing that happened at sea in 1866. Not to mention the various rumors that agitated coastal residents and world public opinion at that time, here I only talk about the special excitement of ordinary sailing personnel. Import and export merchants, captains and ship owners in Europe and the United States, naval officers of various countries, and governments on these two continents are all paying great attention to this matter.

This is roughly what happened: Not long ago, many large ships encountered a "monster" on the sea, a very long object, shaped like a spindle, sometimes emitting phosphorescence, and its volume was larger than a whale. Much faster than a whale.

Concerning the appearance of this thing, many facts are recorded in the logbook (such as the shape of this thing or this creature, the inestimable speed in its movement, the amazing power it transferred, its kind Such as innate special abilities, etc.), which are roughly the same. If this thing is a cetacean, then its size is significantly larger than that of whales that biologists have ever classified. Cuvier Laszebed, Dumery, Katfarge, these biologists--unless they have seen it, that is, unless they have seen it with their own eyes--do not admit that there is such a thing. Monsters exist.

Let’s look at the results of multiple observations in a balanced way - on the one hand, we should discard the low estimates, that is, this thing is only two hundred feet long, and at the same time, we should also not accept the overly exaggerated statements, that is, it is There's a mile. Three miles wide and long, - we can be sure he said ("Jin Shu·Ruan Ji Biography"). "Afterwards, the dimensions were not taken into account, and the theory of nihilism and absurdity abounded. If this strange creature really existed, its size would greatly exceed the size recognized by ichthyologists.

Since this thing exists, and the fact itself is undeniable, then, due to human curiosity, it is not difficult for us to understand what kind of commotion the appearance of this monster will cause in the world. As for saying that this is absurd nonsense, then. No one would agree.

Because on July 20, 1866, the Governor Higginson of the Calcutta and Burnach Steam Navigation Company encountered this swimmer five miles east of the Australian coast. Captain Buck initially thought it was a hidden reef that no one knew about. When he was about to determine its location, suddenly this unexplainable object spurted out two jets of water and shot into the air with a loud splash. feet high. So, unless there is a geyser on this reef, the thing in front of the Governor Higginson is a sea mammal that no one knows about, and it also sprays bubbles from its nostrils. What about the water column?

On July 23 of the same year, the West India-Pacific Steam Navigation Company's Christo Balgolan also encountered such a thing in the Pacific Ocean after seeing this monster. Three days later, the Cristobal Colo also saw it at a distance of 700 miles. From this, we can see that this strange cetacean can prey on people. The speed is transferred from one place to another.

Fifteen days later, two thousand miles away from the above-mentioned location, the Helvetia of the National Steam Navigation Company and the Shannon of the Royal Mail Line were on the road between the United States and Europe. When we met on the Atlantic Ocean, we saw this big monster at the same time at 42 degrees 15 minutes north latitude and 60 degrees 35 minutes west longitude. According to the results of simultaneous observations by the two ships, it is estimated that the length of this mammal is at least more than 350 feet (about 106 meters), because the two ships, the Shannon and the Helvetia, are still connected. Shorter than that, the two ships are only one hundred meters long from stem to stern. However, the longest whales, such as those often found in the waters near Jiulamak Island and Ongurik Island in the Aleutian Islands, are only fifty-six meters, and anything longer than this has never been Never.

News came one after another, various observations made by the Berrel crossing the Atlantic, a collision between the Inman Steamship Company's Vietina and this monster, the French second-class warship No. The records written by the officers of the Mundy, and the very precise calculations made by the senior naval staff officer Foz James on the Lord Creed, all of which indeed caused a stir at the time. In countries with a more impetuous nationality, everyone uses this matter as a source of laughter. But in serious and down-to-earth countries, such as the United Kingdom, the United States and Germany, it is different. They are very concerned about this matter.

The monster became a household story in major cities. It was sung in the cafés, ridiculed in the newspapers, played on the stages. Rumors just had the opportunity to fabricate all kinds of strange stories from this monster. In some newspapers with a small circulation, reports appeared about various bizarre and huge animals, from the beluga whale to the terrifying "Moby Dick" in the Arctic sea to the huge "Kraken" ——The tentacles of this strange fish can entangle a ship with a load of 500 tons and drag it to the bottom of the sea. Some people even hesitate to quote scriptures or quote ancient legends such as Aristotle and Aristotle. The opinion of Pliny (who admits the existence of such monsters): or the Norwegian fairy tale of Bishop Pontuppidan, the account of Paul Egede, and the report of Harrington; which report cannot be doubted, He said that in 1857, he saw a large snake on the Castilan, which could only be seen on the sea where the Constitution visited before.

So, in the academic community. There were believers and skeptics in the scientific press, and the "monster problem" excited people. Journalists who thought they knew science and literati who always thought they were talented started to argue. A lot of ink was spent on this memorable pen battle! A few people even shed a few drops of blood because someone turned the pen on the sea snake and turned it on some arrogant guy.

< p>For six months, the debate continued. The popular tabloids of the day published articles on the controversy with gusto, but they were not attacks on the Brazilian Institute of Geography, the Royal Academy of Sciences in Berlin, the British Academy, or Washington. The authoritative papers published by the Smithsonian Institute refuted the discussions in the Indies, Father Moyano's Cosmos, Piedman's Izvestia, and the scientific news in the major newspapers of France and other countries, which were deliberately misinterpreted by these talented writers. Linnaeus often quoted the saying: "Nature does not make stupid things"; I begged everyone not to believe in the giant fish in the North Sea, the sea snake, "Moby Dick" and other myths made up by crazy sailors. The existence of monsters, do not deny nature. Finally, one of the most popular editors of a well-known and acerbic satirical newspaper hastily published an article emphasizing some basic categories and basic principles of Marxism. Philosophy must deal with this monster; like Yibaoliti, he gave this good thing a final blow and brought it to fruition in the laughter of everyone.

During the first few months of 1867, it seemed that the problem was dead and would never be resolved again. But at this time, people heard that something new was happening and the problem was not one that needed to be solved. A scientific problem, but a danger that must be carefully avoided. The problem takes on a completely different aspect. The monster becomes an island, a rock, a reef, but it is a running, unpredictable and unpredictable reef.

On August 5, 1867, the Moravian of the Monterey Navigation Company sailed to 27 degrees 30 minutes north latitude and 72 degrees 15 minutes west longitude at night. The ship hit a rock on the starboard side. , however, there is no record of this rock on the sea in this area on any map. Thanks to the help of the wind and the propulsion of four hundred horses, the ship's speed reached thirteen knots per hour. There is no doubt that if the hull were not of excellent quality and extremely strong, the Moravian would have carried all the 236 passengers it carried from Canada to the bottom of the sea after it was hit.

The accident happened at about five o'clock in the morning when it was just dawn. The sailors on watch immediately ran to the rear of the ship; they were watching the sea very carefully. Except for a large whirlpool more than 600 meters wide - as if the water surface had been violently impacted - they saw nothing. They only recorded the exact location of the accident. The Moravian continued its voyage, seemingly unscathed. ·Did it hit a reef or a sunken ship? There was no way to know at the time. Later, I went to the dock to check the bottom of the boat, my friend? This question is the primary question of the revolution. "Using the Marxist perspective, it was discovered that part of the dragon's bones were broken.

This fact itself is very serious, but if it hadn't been for three weeks later, the same thing happened again under the same circumstances. The incident, which like so many others was likely to be quickly forgotten, was followed by a collision that, simply because of the nationality of the victim ship and the prestige of the company to which it belonged, was enough to cause widespread reaction. .

No one knows the name of the famous British ship owner Cunard. This shrewd entrepreneur founded a mail ship company as early as 1840 and opened up a line from Liverpool to Khalifa. At that time, there were only three paddle-wheel wooden ships with 400 horsepower and a load of 1,162 tons. Eight years later, the company expanded to include four 650-horsepower wooden ships. A ship with a carrying capacity of 1,820 tons. Two more ships with greater horsepower and carrying capacity were added in two years. In 1853, Cunard Company continued to obtain the privilege of carrying government mail and successively built the Arabian Ship. The Persia, the China, the Scythia, the Java, and the Russia, these are all first-class clippers, and the most spacious, and with the exception of the Great Eastern, there is no ship that sails the seas that can compare with them. By 1867, the company had twelve ships, eight paddle wheels and four hidden wheels.

So I will briefly introduce the above situation. It is to let everyone know the importance of this shipping company. It is famous all over the world for its good management. No shipping company has been more shrewd and more successful than this company for twenty-six years. They are all propagandists of vulgar evolution theory. The positivist Spencer once said that Cunard's ship sailed on the Atlantic two thousand times, and never failed to reach its destination, never was delayed, and was never lost. A letter, a person or a ship was lost, so "despite France's efforts to steal its business, passengers were unanimously willing to sail on the Cunard Company's ships, as shown by official statistics in recent years. It can be seen. After understanding this situation, no one is surprised that an accident involving one of this company's steamships would cause such a huge response.

On April 13, 1867, the sea was calm and the wind was favorable. The Shiptia was sailing on the sea at 15 degrees 12 minutes west longitude and 45 degrees 37 minutes north latitude. It was propelled by a thousand-horsepower engine and had a speed of thirteen and a half knots per hour. Its wheels turned in the sea, perfectly normal. Its draft at that time was 6 meters 70 centimeters, and its displacement was 6,685 square meters.

At 4:16 in the afternoon, when the passengers were eating snacks in the lobby, there seemed to be a slight impact at the stern of the Scotia, a little behind the port wheel.

The Scotia did not hit something, but was hit by something. It is not a hammering instrument but a drilling instrument that admires it. The collision was very slight. If the cabin crew hadn't run to the deck and shouted: "The ship is sinking: the ship is sinking!" perhaps no one on the ship would have cared.

The passengers were panicked at first, but Captain Anderson quickly calmed them down. Danger does not occur immediately. The Scotia was divided into seven rooms by waterproof panels, and it didn't care about a few holes.

Captain Anderson immediately ran down to the bilge.

He found that the fifth room was flooded by sea water. The sea water soaked in very quickly, which proved that the loophole was quite large. Fortunately, there is no steam stove in this room, otherwise, the fire will go out.

Captain Anderson ordered the ship to be stopped immediately and ordered a diver to go into the water to inspect the damage to the hull. After a while, he knew that there was a large hole two meters long in the bottom of the boat. Such a breach could not be plugged, and the Scotia had to continue sailing even though its wheels were half submerged in water. At that time, the ship was still three hundred nautical miles away from the Klea Gap. By the time the ship arrived at the company's dock, it had already been delayed for three days. During these three days, everyone in Liverpool was worried about it.

The Scotia was raised and engineers began inspections. Even they themselves could not believe what they saw with their eyes. Two and a half meters below the waterline of the hull, a very regular equilateral triangle gap is exposed. The scars on the iron sheet are very neat. Even a drill can't cut it so accurately. The sharp instrument that made this crack must not be made of ordinary steel, because this guy is slamming forward with amazing force, chiseling. After wearing the four-centimetre-thick iron sheet, he could still use a difficult retreating movement to escape.

This is roughly what happened in this recent incident. As a result, public opinion was once again stirred up. From this time on, all previously unexplained maritime disasters were now attributed to this monster. This bizarre animal then took responsibility for the sinking of all ships. Unfortunately, the number of shipwrecks is quite large. According to the statistical yearbook, about 3,000 ships are lost every year, including sailing ships and steamships. As for the ships that are declared missing due to unknown whereabouts, the number is no less than 200 every year. Ship!

Whether the monster is wronged or not, people blame it for the disappearance of the ship. Due to its existence, maritime traffic between the five continents has become more and more dangerous. Everyone is determined to remove this terrible whale monster from the sea at any cost.

Chapter 2 Pros and Cons

When these events happened, I was returning from a scientific expedition in the barren area of ??Nebraska, USA. Since I was an associate professor at the Museum of Natural Sciences in Paris, the French government sent me to participate in this expedition. After spending six months in Nebraska, at the end of March, I returned to New York laden with precious specimens, and I set out for my return home. The date in France is set for early May. Therefore, I used my stay to organize the mineral specimens, animal and plant specimens collected this time, and the accident of the Scotia happened at this time.

I am naturally familiar with this issue that was discussed a lot at that time, and how could I not know it? I read and read various newspapers and periodicals in the United States and Europe, but did not gain any further understanding. Because of this monster, I made all kinds of guesses. Because I couldn't make up my mind, I kept swinging between extremely different opinions. This is a true thing, there is no doubt about it; and those who doubt it, let them feel the cracks in the Scotia.

When I arrived in New York, the issue was in full swing. Some unlearned people once said that it was a floating island and an elusive reef. However, this assumption has now been completely overturned. The reason is: Unless the reef has a machine in its belly, how can it get here and there so quickly?

Similarly, the assumption that it is a floating hull or a huge broken ship cannot be established. The reason is still because it moves so fast.

In the final analysis, there are only two possible explanations for this problem, so people are divided into two groups with different opinions: one group says that this is a monster with infinite strength, and the other group says that it is a powered ship. A very powerful "submarine".

Although the latter hypothesis is very tenable, after investigation in Europe and the United States, it becomes untenable. It is really unlikely that a private person can have such a machine. Where and when. Did he build this thing? How could he keep the secret without leaking it?

Only one government can own such a destructive machine. In an unfortunate era when people are racking their brains to increase the power of weapons, it is possible for one country to create such weapons without telling other countries. After machine guns there are mines, after mines there are diving impact machines, and then there are various weapons that restrain each other, at least that's what I think in my mind.

However, this "submarine" hypothesis is untenable due to the statements of various European governments, because this is a matter of public interest. Since ocean traffic has been damaged, the governments of various countries have Sincerity, of course, cannot be doubted. Moreover, how can it be said that the construction of this "submarine" can escape the eyes and ears of the public? Under such circumstances, even for an individual, it is very difficult to keep secrets. For a government whose actions are often noticed by hostile countries, it is certainly impossible. , Therefore, according to investigations conducted in Britain, France, Russia, Prussia, Spain, Italy, the United States, and even Turkey, the "submarine" hypothesis finally had to be abandoned.

Although some newspapers and periodicals at the time continued to ridicule this monster, it appeared on the waves again, so people's imagination began to think about fish and created all kinds of the most absurd legends. Come.

When I arrived in New York, some people came to ask my opinion on this strange incident. I had previously published a book in France in two octavo volumes, entitled: "The Mystery of the Sea". This book was especially appreciated by the academic community and made me an expert in this rather arcane branch of natural science. That's why people ask me for my opinion. But as long as I can deny the truth of this matter, I will always answer in the negative. But soon I was forced to express my opinion clearly. Moreover, the "New York Herald Tribune" has made an appointment with "the venerable Mr. Pierre Aronnax, professor at the Museum of Natural Sciences in Paris" and asked him to express his opinions on this issue.

I expressed my opinion. Because I couldn't remain silent, I had to say a few words. I discuss various aspects of this issue, both politically and academically. I will now summarize the conclusion of a very informative article that I published in the Tribune on April 30, excerpted below:

“I examined various hypotheses one by one. And all conjectures that are impossible to establish, we have to admit that there is actually a marine animal with amazing power.

“We have no understanding of the unfathomable bottom of the ocean. The detector has not arrived either. What is the situation like in the lowest abyss? What kind of creatures are there and what kind of creatures may there be in the place 22,000 miles or 15,000 miles under the sea? What is the physical structure of these animals? It's really hard for us to speculate.

"However, the problem before me can be solved with the formula of 'two approaches'.

"All kinds of creatures living on the earth, or we We know each other, or we don’t know each other. ""

"If we do not know all living things, and nature continues to keep certain ichthyological secrets from us, then we will have to admit that in the water layers beyond the reach of detectors There are also new species of fish and whales. They have an "unbuoyant" organ. Because they have stayed under the sea for a long time, they will suddenly float to the surface of the sea due to happiness or willfulness. It’s quite convincing.

“On the other hand, if we really know all the creatures on the earth, then we must find the animal we are discussing among the marine creatures that have been classified; In this case, I have to admit the existence of a huge narwhal.

“The common narwhal, or sea unicorn, often reaches sixty feet in length. Now if this length is increased five times, or even ten times, and the whale and fish animals are Its size is proportional to its strength, and its attack weapons are strengthened, so it is the animal at sea now. In other words, it is as long as the officers of the Shannon measured it, and its horns can pierce Scotus. Asia, its power can break the hull of a steamboat

"True, this narwhal, as some biologists say, has a: bone sword or. A boney stem, then it must be a long tooth as hard as steel. Someone once found narwhal teeth in whales. Narwhals always succeed in attacking whales with their teeth. Someone had also pulled out from the bottom of the ship - and found it with great difficulty - the teeth of a narwhal, which penetrated the bottom of the ship like a sharp cone through a barrel.

"There is such a tooth in the exhibition hall of the Paris Medical School. It is two meters and twenty-five centimeters long and forty-eight centimeters wide at the base!

"Okay! Now suppose that the weapon is ten times more powerful, and that the animal is ten times more powerful. If its forward speed is twenty miles an hour, then multiply its weight by the square of its speed to find the damage The impact of the Scotia.

“Therefore, before I get more information, I think this is a sea unicorn. This sea unicorn has a very huge body. The weapons on its body are not swords and halberds, but real charging horns. , like those mounted on an armored ship or a battleship, it has the weight and power of a battleship at the same time.

"This explains this mysterious and inexplicable phenomenon. - Or on the contrary, whatever people see and feel is actually nothing; that is also possible. ”

The last few sentences can only show that I have no opinion and am wavering in my opinions; this is to preserve my status as a professor to a certain extent, and at the same time I don’t want to make Americans laugh, because Americans I laughed a lot. So I took this retreat. In fact, I admitted the existence of this "monster".

My article caused a lot of heated discussion. A lot of people support it, and the conclusions put forward by Zhang Zhong can be imagined without any restrictions. People are always interested in those magical and bizarre fantasies, and the ocean is the best for these fantasies. Source, because only the sea is the environment where huge animals can breed and grow. Compared with them, animals on land, such as elephants or rhinoceroses, are simply tiny. Huge mammals, maybe huge molluscs and scary-looking crustaceans, such as a hundred-meter-long prawn or a two-hundred-ton crab! "Why not?" The land animals of the same period as recorded in geology, the four-legged beasts, the four-handed beasts, reptiles, and birds, were all created according to huge models. The Creator threw out a tall model to create them. After a long time, the model gradually shrank. Under the unfathomable ocean (because the ocean never changes; and the earth's crust is almost constantly changing), why can't it be preserved? What about the species of giant creatures from another era? Why can't the interior of the ocean contain the last varieties of those giant creatures, those giant species whose century is a year and a thousand years is a century?

I have allowed myself to immerse myself in all kinds of fantasy again. Now I have to stop these fantasy, because, in my opinion, time has turned these fantasy into a terrible reality. I repeat, the prevailing opinion as to the nature of this strange occurrence was that everyone unanimously acknowledged the existence of a magical thing, which did not have the slightest resemblance to the grotesque sea serpent.

However, although some people regard this matter as a purely scientific problem to be solved, others who are more pragmatic, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom, and there are many such people, advocate Clear away this terrible monster from the ocean and ensure the safety of maritime traffic. In particular, newspapers and periodicals in the industrial and commercial circles have studied this issue from this point of view. "Sail Industry Business Journal",

As soon as public opinions were raised, the United States of North America first issued a statement that it would prepare in New York to organize an expedition to remove narwhals. The Lincoln, a high-speed second-class battleship equipped with an attack angle, is scheduled to sail out of the sea in the near future. All shipyards provided various conveniences to Commander Farragut to help him equip this second-level battleship one day earlier.

That's what happens when people decide to chase the monster. The monster never appears again. Within two months, no one had any news about the monster, and no ship encountered it. It seems that this sea unicorn has received information that people are preparing to attack it. Because everyone said it too much, even using the submarine wires in the Atlantic Ocean! Therefore, people who like to tell jokes say that this elf thing must have eavesdropped on the telegram on the way, and now it is on guard. No more casually coming out.
