Chapter 217 Deep Sea Operation
After the modification was completed, the deep sea submarine was sent to the water world from the outpost. The lifting platform built by Yang Li and the Qinglong team worked at this time and did not fall from a height of tens of meters. The scene that resulted in the submarine falling apart.
Five or six people in the Qinglong Team can drive submarines, and the equipment sent is a simple version that only two people can control, so the Qinglong Team quickly mastered this new model Research into how submarines are controlled.
Yang Li and his team members had already figured out the depth of the nearby sea area before and knew which direction to go next.
“How many meters can the boat sent be dived to at most?”
Yang Li was sitting in the cabin. He inspected the 12 torpedoes carried by the submarine. The news he received from the outpost was that all the twelve torpedoes were the latest Torpedo 10, and their single shot power was sufficient. Destroy a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier in an instant!
Such a powerful weapon was jointly installed by the Weapons Research and Development Institute and the Submarine Research and Development Department to install it on this scientific research submarine. At least in terms of weapon power, they did not have to worry.
“This thing should be the youth version of Jiaolong. It was previously used for scientific research. The ultimate depth is about 3,000 meters. Normally, it can maintain a depth of 2,000 meters to carry out various tasks.”
The pilot who was selected by lot seemed quite excited. This was the first time for him to drive such a high-tech scientific research submarine. He had heard before that the association’s Jiaolong submarine could penetrate 8,000 meters under the sea. It was true. was shocked.
The military submarines that were opened at the time were usually 200-300 meters deep. Even nuclear submarines had a maximum diving depth of only about 800 meters. Some of them were around 1,000 meters deep, which was also a very small number. .
Perhaps many people have learned more or less about what is in the deep sea through various science programs, but few people dare to dive to such depths to explore it themselves.
What's more, the place where the Qinglong Team, Yang Li and others are going now is the depths of the ocean on another planet!
Everyone did a simple mobilization before setting off, and Yang Li even directly asked all members to leave a suicide note again. This part made everyone present a little nervous.
"Comrades!"
Yang Li stood on the submarine and spoke out to the members of the Qinglong Team who were selected by lot in front of him to enter the submarine to carry out this "deep sea operation", "The association tests our The time has come!”
"Everyone must be very clear about the situation we are facing now."
"We are carrying out deep-sea operations this time not only for the exploration orders and tasks of the association and the base, but also for ourselves!"< br>
Yang Li directly rolled down the sleeves on his arms, and bright green blisters appeared on them. However, this strange scene did not surprise the team members in front of him at all. They just looked at Yang Li in silence. .
"We have no other choice. If we want to survive, we may have to choose the only hope."
It is not that the two bases and associations have not taken any action, on the contrary. , they have made great efforts.
The association sent a large amount of medicines here, various types and even some experimental things for them to try. The outpost even sent medicines made of new materials here in batches. deliver.
But not only did the green blisters on Yang Li and Team Qinglong show no signs of subside, they even started to get serious. Yang Li had frequent fevers in the past few days, and was blind or hallucinating from time to time, with tinnitus and coughing...
Those in the Qinglong team with mild symptoms can still maintain normal work, while those with severe symptoms can barely survive by relying on antiviral drugs. The so-called drawing of lots, Yang Li actually did a lot of manipulation in it, and several All infected people with severe symptoms were selected.
In this extremely dangerous deep-sea operation, Yang Li was obviously prepared to sacrifice.
Once again making a pre-departure report to the northern base, Yang Li directed the members of the Qinglong Team to enter the submarine with a wave of his hand.
"Operation Deep Sea, begin!"
There was a roar on the hatch cover of the deep-sea submarine, and it soon disappeared from the sight of everyone on the temporary offshore platform.
There were still five people on the temporary offshore platform. They kept saluting in the direction of the submarine, and then slowly put it down after a while.
"Can it be successful?"
One of the soldiers of the Qinglong team said worriedly: "Those monsters in the deep sea... we don't know what kind of existence they are at all. Before The detectors show that they are extremely large. If they encounter our submarine, they have no chance of winning.”
"How could Captain Yang not know this? It can even be said that everyone in the submarine knows it!"
The other soldier shook his head, "But if it were you and me, even if we knew that the situation in front of us was extremely dangerous, Shouldn’t we also carry out high-level tasks?”
“Haha, this is our ultimate fate! Instead of waiting here to die, we might as well try our best to seize that hope! I can cure the virus on my body and return!”
“I hope our equipment can last to 1500 meters!”
“The equipment is fine, it depends on their luck...”
"If there is a problem with Captain Yang and the others, I will apply to the outpost for another submarine. The five of us will try again no matter what!"
"Hahaha, just what I want! ”
In the base of the Northern Territory, Chen Lin was sitting in the back seat, listening to the words of the members of the Qinglong Team, but his eyes always fell on the screen on the other side - that was Yang Li and others drove the Jiaolong submarine into the deep sea.
Everyone present was somewhat affected by the emotion. Several female researchers couldn't help but wipe the corners of their eyes. They all knew very well that the words they just said were parting words.
In the water world, more than a dozen members of the Qinglong team were all infected with an unknown virus. At present, they have all suffered from various complications. If there is no special medicine or vaccine, basically It is certain that they will all die tragically in another world in the end.
Even in order to prevent these unknown viruses from spreading to other worlds and the earth, the association issued a death order prohibiting these people from returning to other worlds before they recovered.
Chen Lin was looking at the big screen, but Xiao Wu, a security guard not far away, quickly approached and said at a close distance into Chen Lin's ear: "Mr. Chen, there is a phone over there at the outpost. . "
Chen Lin glanced at the guard and nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.
He had no intention of answering the phone, he just stared at the picture on the big screen.
The Jiaolong submarine dived to a depth of more than 200 meters within a few minutes. The warm and bright sea area that originally seemed to have disappeared early, was replaced by light black sea water.
As the commander, Yang Li ordered the submarine's lighting system to be turned on. Soon, a scene appeared on the big screen that shocked everyone present.
Countless huge clusters of mushrooms with structures like towering giant trees suddenly appeared in the picture. These mushrooms on the seabed are extremely huge, and the largest ones are even as big as submarines. Existence, faintly exuding a strange purple light on the bottom of the sea.
“Look at the lower right corner.”
A sharp-eyed researcher noticed the difference on the screen and pointed out keenly: “It looks like a building!”
Someone immediately passed the news to Yang Li and others, and the submarine immediately dived a few meters again, getting closer to the building.
At this time, everyone discovered that this place was already in ruins.
"The material seems to be of the same type as the buildings previously discovered on the island."
Yang Li zoomed in on the screen, and after confirmation, he communicated directly with the northern base: "We are ready to send out The team members went inside to explore... There seems to be no danger here at the moment."
The staff at the northern base quickly communicated and suggested that Yang Li not take risks. The area here already belongs to the area. At the edge of the deep sea, no one of them could guarantee safety, so it would be safer to stay in the submarine.
Yang Li also briefly confirmed the opinions of everyone in the submarine, and finally chose the minority to obey the majority and gave up this risky move.
The limit of the diving suits they carry is almost here. Unless there is something to drag them down, they alone cannot do it.
“Run the sonar radar at full power and drive carefully.”
Sitting in the submarine, Yang Li actually hoped to gain telepathy again at this time. The mysterious monster shadow had already affected I have met him many times, and everyone in the Qinglong Team has also encountered him more or less, and it can be proven to be true.
The shadow told Yang Li and the others that if they go to the deep sea in this direction, it will ultimately save everyone...
Although I don’t know what kind of existence the phantom is, it seems that this is indeed the only hope at present.
"Captain, something is approaching us!"
Just a few seconds after Yang Li fell into thinking, the driver in front of him shouted loudly.
Everyone in the observation room at the northern base was immediately startled. Chen Lin straightened his body and looked at the actions of the Qinglong team on the screen.
Yang Li was also instantly startled. He moved directly to the sonar radar, stared at the extremely fast-moving target on the radar, and immediately said without hesitation: "Lock the target and launch the torpedo! ”
The pilot immediately flipped open the torpedo's control lever with a click. However, the target in the radar moved extremely fast and could not be locked at all. This resulted in the delay in launching the torpedo.
Everyone in the observation room stared at the screen with their eyes wide open. They were full of curiosity and surprise at this time. They had seen very few deep-sea creatures in the opposite world, and judging from the radar data, this one was moving quickly. The creature is a big guy!
Yang Li didn't say any nonsense at all. He immediately stood up and called the two people, quickly put on the diving suit, took the weapon from the weapon storage slot on the side, and immediately stepped out of the submarine.
At this time, the depth of the submarine was 225 meters, which was within the limit depth that the diving suit could withstand, so it was enough to support them in leaving the cabin.
The scientific research submarine Jiaolong allows underwater robots to leave the cabin. Yang Li and others directly borrowed this hatch to get out of the submarine.
The northern base was unable to obtain the first-person perspective of Yang Li and others immediately, and could only rely on the camera of the Jiaolong submarine to take pictures.
When the camera turned to this side, they only saw a dazzling bright light flashing out instantly.
"Come on, Zizhong!!"
Yang Li was holding a huge electromagnetic weapon in both hands, and the two members of the Qinglong Team next to him were also holding one each. The special weapon was pointed vigilantly in one direction.
The first shot missed, Yang Li immediately adjusted the muzzle of the weapon in his hand. He directly put it on his arm, aimed at the dark area in the distance, and then shouted: "Seeking death!"
A group of people at the northern base did not see the enemy and thought that Yang Li was hallucinating again. Just as they were about to connect to the communication, a rapid shout came from the loudspeaker.
"Captain Yang, it is only 200 meters away from us, on your right!"
As soon as the words fell, a huge sound like an ancient tyrannosaurus came out instantly!
Everyone present heard this voice very clearly, and their faces became extremely ugly.
There is indeed some kind of indescribable huge marine creature in this sea area. Judging from the sound alone, this thing is definitely not small!
Yang Li roared angrily, and immediately he and the two soldiers behind him fired suddenly in the direction to the right!
The weapons in the hands of the three of them are not conventional rifles, but the latest model of firearms that have been produced from the weapons research and development institute in the past few days-electromagnetic rifles!
This was the compensation Chen Lin received for being imprisoned in that ruins. After the design blueprint of the electromagnetic weapon was delivered to the Weapons Research Institute, it only took a week to completely copy it. out.
The first batch of people to get it were Yang Li and his members of the Blue Dragon Team who were unable to escape from the water world.
The Weapons Research Institute sent a total of three experimental weapons, the largest of which was actually a modified version of the electromagnetic weapon.
Lin Yun used the blueprints and electromagnetic coils to directly change the design, turning it into an unprecedented "plasma weapon."
The power of this firearm underwater is almost undiminished, so it is regarded by Yang Li as a powerful weapon to deal with this monster in the ocean.
The roar came from far away, and along with the terrifying roar, a huge deep-sea Leviathan suddenly sprang out from the black water in the distance!
While running through the footage of the Jiaolong, they suddenly saw an extremely long deep-sea monster suddenly appear. This monster had pale skin, dark red body stripes, and a huge head. The incomparable fangs and sharp horns collided directly with the Jiaolong's hull at extremely fast speeds.
“Hey, the target of this thing is our ship!”
At this moment, Yang Li seemed to be waking up from a dream. He quickly called to the two soldiers behind him to change direction. The weapons in their hands immediately fired at the huge sea beast that was about to attack without any intention of stopping!
“Kill it!”
With Yang Li’s roar, the plasma weapon in his hand exploded and shot out a ball of blue energy, which was even completely Unaffected by the resistance of the sea water, he rushed straight to the giant ocean beast!
