1月21日
黎明时分，詹姆森和特里弗被选中执行这个孤注一掷的任务，他们是经验丰富的人，他们的神经似乎最能抵挡那些潜伏在听不到和看不到的恐怖。在莫里斯操作着潜水服和绞车的情况下，大家都希望天堂的眷顾会引导他们，让他们找到怀特利和康斯托克只能看到毁灭的地方。顺利降落后，他们消失在了无光的水面之下，那水面如同永恒的一段时间般平静，没有任何迹象显示出那些黑暗的边界上潜伏着什么存在。几个小时过去了，大家都焦虑地守望着，为了使潜水员能够安全返回，大家纷纷祈祷，以免噩梦从虚无中变成现实。
最后，一声叫喊将所有人从沉思中惊醒——詹姆森的呼喊清晰地在阿瑟爵士号上回响。在灯光和放大镜的照射下，他们迷离的话语中透露出一种不可思议的发现，一个庞大而非欧几里得的结构，令人难以理解。从无光的深处拖上来的证据——一件太巨大、太精细的工艺品，任何自然海洋建筑都无法制造。
黎明时分，准备工作接近尾声，标本和文物被妥善保管，准备运回米斯卡托尼克大学的学院。尽管人们对从无光深渊中升起的构造物的性质心存疑虑，但所有人都认真地记录了保存下来的形态。整个过程中，似乎有一个未知的观察者潜伏在索具和帆布之间，用一种比自然更加恶劣的光芒观察着下方的活动。由于工作需要，没有人能够清楚地辨别出这个观察者的样貌，但一种即将降临的邪恶氛围似乎始终存在，因为任务临近结束。
黄昏降临时，安德鲁斯先生来到指挥舱，寻求答案，而黑暗也逐渐笼罩了一切。在那里，他只看到船长霍金斯独自一人指挥，对这种报道一无所知。从舵手的位置上看，没有陌生人可以悄无声息地渗透进来，然而，这个谜团却像从那个无名的金属遗物中渗透出来的一种瘴气一样加深了。尽管霍金斯的保证使人放心，但疑虑现在日益加剧，安德鲁斯先生决定整夜放哨，以查明这种不祥的好奇心的本质，并驱散或揭示现在困扰着船员的扰动。
