I (Professor Aronnax of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, France) believes that the monster is a "narwhal" with astonishing power. The U.S. Navy organized a ship named Abraham. The fast destroyer USS Lincoln is ready to clear out the "monster". I was invited to accompany him.

At dawn, the boat cover was opened, and eight strong men came out and dragged us into the boat.

Analysis of the Characters in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea

1. Captain Nemo

Is a romantic, mysterious and very attractive character. Like the sea, he is passionate, cold, kind, dangerous, gentle, irritable, easy-going, and willful... He built the "Nautilus" submarine according to his own design and submerged himself on the seabed to conduct large-scale scientific research, but this It seems that this is not the only purpose of his lonely life.

He escaped from his enemies and persecutors, searched for freedom on the bottom of the sea, and felt deeply sad about his lonely life. But his conscience has never been erased by the cruel life experience.

2. Pierre Aronnax (Aronnax)

A biologist with extensive knowledge of the past and present. He sailed underwater in a submarine, allowing him to fully appreciate the ocean. He and his servant Conseil, who was obsessed with taxonomy, gave us a detailed introduction to these marine creatures, including kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The story is told in an orderly manner, allowing readers to get to know many marine creatures; Aronas also recounts the various wonders seen in the ocean, which is an eye-opener for readers.

3. Conseil (Consell)

Professor Aronnax’s servant is calm and loyal by nature, and he never makes a fuss. He is always calm and easy-going, and he is never in a hurry to get angry - at least you can't see that he is in a hurry to get angry. He is proficient in classification theory. He always classifies things seriously or solemnly when he encounters them, but he knows nothing about the names of those things. It can be said that he is a classification maniac.

4. Ned Land (Ned Land)

He is a relatively primitive man, a wild whaler. He would also marvel at the beauty of the polar regions, but what was more important to him was steak, veal, wine in a tavern, and walking freely on land. He had a hot temper, could not stand being imprisoned, and always planned to escape. Without him, the professor and Conseil would not have been able to return to the land in the end.
