1The Canadian's last words produced a sudden revolution in my brain. I wriggled myself quickly to the top of the being,
2or object, half out of the water, which served us for a refuge. I kicked it. It was evidently a hard impenetrable body,
3and not the soft substance that forms the bodies of the great marine mammalia. But this hard body might be a bony
4carapace, like that of the antediluvian animals; and I should be free to class this monster among amphibious reptiles,
5such as tortoises or alligators. Well, no! the blackish back that supported me was smooth, polished, without scales. The
6blow produced a metallic sound; and incredible though it may be, it seemed, I might say, as if it was made of riveted
7plates. There was no doubt about it! This monster, this natural phenomenon that had puzzled the learned world, and
8overthrown and misled the imagination of seamen of both hemispheres, it must be owned, a still more astonishing
9phenomenon, inasmuch as it was a simply human construction. We had no time to lose, however. We were lying upon the back
10of a sort of submarine boat, which appeared (as far as I could judge) like a huge fish of steel. Ned Land's mind was
11made up on this point. Conseil and I could only agree with him. Just then a bubbling began at the back of this strange
12thing (which was evidently propelled by a screw), and it began to move. We had only just time to seize hold of the upper
13part, which rose about seven feet out of the water, and happily its speed was not great. "As long as it sails
14horizontally," muttered Ned Land, "I do not mind; but if it takes a fancy to dive, I would not give two straws for my
15life." The Canadian might have said still less. It became really necessary to communicate with the beings, whatever they
16were, shut up inside the machine. I searched all over the outside for an aperture, a panel, or a man-hole, to use a
17technical expression; but the lines of the iron rivets, solidly driven into the joints of the iron plates, were clear
18and uniform. Besides, the moon disappeared then, and left us in total darkness. At last this long night passed. My
19indistinct remembrance prevents my describing all the impressions it made. I can only recall one circumstance. During
20some lulls of the wind and sea, I fancied I heard several times vague sounds, a sort of fugitive harmony produced by
21words of command. What was then the mystery of this submarine craft, of which the whole world vainly sought an
22explanation? What kind of beings existed in this strange boat? What mechanical agent caused its prodigious speed?
23Daybreak appeared. The morning mists surrounded us, but they soon cleared off. I was about to examine the hull, which
24formed on deck a kind of horizontal platform, when I felt it gradually sinking. "Oh! confound it!" cried Ned Land,
25kicking the resounding plate. "Open, you inhospitable rascals!" Happily the sinking movement ceased. Suddenly a noise,
26like iron works violently pushed aside, came from the interior of the boat. One iron plate was moved, a man appeared,
27uttered an odd cry, and disappeared immediately. Some moments after, eight strong men, with masked faces, appeared
28noiselessly, and drew us down into their formidable machine.
