The cold sea water pierced straight to the bone; Laura jumped in wearing only a vest and instantly regretted it.
She felt her arms stiffen as if bound by something, and her abdomen and thighs spasmed intermittently from the sudden drop in temperature.
Laura forced herself to dive deeper. She wasn't sure what the human record for the deepest no-equipment, shallow-water dive was, but it was clear that if Chen Ke had fallen into a 500-meter abyss, she was out of her league.
Her limit was at a depth of 110 meters, holding her breath for just over 2 minutes, which included the time it took to dive and resurface. But this time, she decided to dive deeper, hoping that Nathan would be able to pull her back up.
The sea was dark and cold as if it belonged to the Evil God. She dived right in the area where the blue column of light burst through the sea surface, hoping Chen Ke was down below.
