Chapter Ninety-Eight: An Unexpected Discovery

The depths of the ocean,

In the cold and dark waters, a behemoth is silently approaching, and there is majestic and abundant power hidden under the smooth metal shell. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Due to its excellent noise reduction and silencing performance, this huge nuclear submarine has extremely low movement and is close to the background noise of the ocean, so the anti-submarine equipment of most countries is powerless against it. Of course, with the superpower of the United States, there are very few countries that are qualified to have the courage to fight its ideas.

The USS Wisconsin nuclear submarine is now being ordered to carry out an extremely secret mission.

“…… The approximate location of the target has been determined, the ASDA combat unit has been launched, and I hope we can have a good harvest this time!" Inside the submarine, the captain of the submarine, Lieutenant Commander Savison, said to a young man in front of him.

The young man with blond hair and blue eyes had handsome facial features, elegant bearing, and a calm demeanor, with an ancient aristocratic style. At this moment, he was holding a high-magnification glass with gems on the handle, carefully examining the stack of photos in front of him, his expression extremely focused.

Hearing the captain's words, the young man put down the photo and yawned lightly, before he said lazily: "The effect of this detector we have newly developed is quite good, as long as the straight-line distance is not more than five thousand meters, and the surface sediment is not particularly large, the probability of finding that thing will not be less than seventy percent! If its mass volume is large enough, then it will not be able to avoid the scanning of the detector at all!"

"According to the results of this investigation, maybe the target we just discovered is a rare big guy, and it shouldn't be less than 100 kilograms!"

"A hundred kilograms?"

Lieutenant Colonel Savison's face changed slightly, he had been wandering the depths of the ocean for years on the orders of the military top brass in search of this alien material, but he had rarely found anything.

This is not surprising, the marine environment is much more complex and dangerous than on land, especially the deep sea below a kilometer, which is basically unknown to humans!

Therefore, although there are many more meteorites in the theoretical shimmer ocean than on land, the difficulty of finding them is not at all on the same level.

The few harvests that Savison has had in the last decade have been essentially a tiny fraction. But even so, he received several medals and handsome bonuses, and was transferred from an old Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine to captain the latest Virginia-class nuclear submarine.

If he can really find such a large piece of Blue Tide Crystal Mother this time, then he can go further, and maybe he will have a chance to rise to the position of admiral in a few decades!

Of course, there is no way to know what this thing is for, with his authority, he just needs to understand that this thing means a lot to the military leadership!

"Dear Lord Best, maybe we should get ready to celebrate with champagne, they will bring back good news this time!" Captain Savison said with excitement in his tone.

Best, the blond young man, laughed, "I agree with your proposal in principle, but that will have to wait until they get back, won't it?"

At this moment, in the sea water thousands of meters away from the nuclear submarine, an ASDA pocket submarine is cautiously approaching the intended target.

On the nuclear submarine, synthetic aperture radar, infrared sensors, odor discrimination systems, laser detection, and other detection methods with different functions and principles were all turned on, and they were nervously watching every move of the action group in the distance.

It was a desk-sized stone, half-buried in the seabed, covered in thick seagrass silt, and surrounded by a large number of shells, fish, shrimps, crabs, and other aquatic creatures. It's hard to spot if you don't look closely.

The pocket submarine slowly swam to the front, and after a while, six "SEAL" special forces soldiers in thick anti-pressure diving suits came out one after another, holding various tools and began to clean up around the rock.

…………

“…… Do we have the technology to detect this meteorite?"

In the office, Zhao Xinglan continued to ask: "If you rely solely on manpower to find it, this efficiency is too low, right?"

Xie Xuan spread his hands and said: "Of course there is, there are several special detection instruments for this substance have been developed in the military's laboratory, but unfortunately the range of action is not too far, at best it is a few thousand meters, and there can not be too many obstacles in the middle, so ...... It still has to rely on a lot of manpower investment. ”

Zhao Xinglan muttered: "In other words, the current detection methods can basically only detect the situation on the surface, and we can't do anything about whether there is a blue tide crystal mother in the formation, right?"

"That's right, otherwise we'd never find more than that!" Xie Xuan said helplessly.

The earth has existed for billions of years, and a certain number of meteorites fall to the ground every day, not to mention the impact of giant meteorites and even asteroids many times.

The number of various meteorites accumulated over a long period of time has reached the point of shock, and although the probability of occurrence of rare and exotic meteorites is extremely low, the accumulation of billions of years is also considerable.

However, the earth is not a dead star, earthquakes, volcanoes, weathering of rock formations, natural subsidence, continental plate drift and other geological activities are going on all the time, and the vicissitudes of the sea have become commonplace!

To this day, the vast majority of meteorites have been buried deep in the stratum and have disappeared. Unless it's a coincidence, there's no chance of seeing the light of day again.

Xie Xuan took out two small instruments that looked like code scanners from the drawer, handed them to her, and said: "You know the appearance and characteristics of Lanxi Jingmu, you can also take this pocket detector and put it away, you can pay attention to it when you have the opportunity to travel, I hope you can bring surprises to my sister." ”

That being said, she didn't take it too seriously, and the odds of finding this thing were much lower than winning the lottery, so she could only say that there was a little more thought about it if multiple people helped.

Zhao Xinglan put the instrument into her handbag, a different color suddenly flashed in her eyes, and said calmly: "I'll go to the bathroom, okay?"

Xie Xuan nodded disapprerovingly: "Remember to move quickly, let's set off in ten minutes." ”

A minute later.

Zhao Xinglan carefully locked the door and saw that there was nothing unusual around her before she began to secretly communicate with the mother emperor.

“…… Master, I need your permission, and it's now!" it said with a bit of urgency.

"What the hell is going on?" she asked.

"My split has just discovered a special ore, and it's very helpful for my evolution, so I have to get it!" the mother emperor said: "But now that it is controlled by the Mi people, the only way to get it is to kill them!"

The picture was transmitted back, and Zhao Xinglan instantly saw the situation at the bottom of the sea, and six special forces soldiers in diving suits were tying ropes to the meteorite, intending to get it back into the pocket submarine.

A few kilometers away, a huge nuclear submarine is quietly waiting.

Zhao Xinglan was secretly shocked in his heart, this matter actually had something to do with the people of the United States? It seems that if you want to get this thing, you can only kill all six of these people. In order not to leak the news, even the nuclear submarine in the distance could not be spared.

However, the movement caused by this is too great, and the high-level of any major country attaches great importance to such an important national weapon as nuclear submarines. If a certain nuclear submarine sinks due to an accident, even the president will be alarmed. There is no shortage of precedents for this in previous history.

However, the growth of the mother emperor is closely related to her own vital interests, and since it needs it, there is no reason to stop it.

She took a look, the location of the meteorite was in the sea near New Zealand, the depth of the sea was less than three hundred meters, if this place chose to move, it should not attract the attention of outsiders for the time being, and the combat splits had enough time to evacuate.

"Can you deal with a nuclear submarine now?" Zhao Xinglan asked bluntly.
