The capture of the sea dragon did not make a lot of noise, and according to the report, the large ship with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons gradually approached the sea area where the flood was active. The sea dragon is a dangerous prey, but the people on board are not very nervous. What weapons does a sea dragon have? The minions of wild animals, even if they are very strong due to their size, and they can discharge, but how can the flesh of carbon-based creatures compete with steel machines?

It is indeed the case, although the appearance of sea monsters such as sea dragons is already very unscientific, but the flesh really can't defeat steel. Don't look at the fact that the sea dragon is now equipped with tungsten carbide minions and silicon carbide armor, but the strength of this body is far from the output of one of the engines of this ship.......

At the same time that this modified scientific research ship, known as the "Star of Hope", set off to capture the sea dragon, the military operation against the sea demon chapter in the South China Sea also began. Now the study of the Sea Demon Chapter has a considerable depth, and I understand the characteristics of this sea monster. Despite its ability to secrete corrosive liquids, it can easily be discarded by developing some anti-corrosion paint - not the aliens in the movies. And the power of this Sea Demon Chapter is also limited, although it is really large. And it's not bulletproof, and despite its tough muscles, bullets can still penetrate and cause damage - especially with a large-caliber machine gun, which should be able to easily tear off its body tissue.

But the most annoying thing is the diving depth of this sea monster, if it is less than a thousand meters, there are not many underwater radars or sonars that can detect this sea monster, so it is the most difficult to capture the whereabouts of the sea monster.

Fortunately, the monster's range has been roughly delineated, and the previous attacks on fishing boats have further narrowed it down - this monster does not have the ability to move at supersonic speeds. Several long-endurance water patrol planes have already hung up depth charges and are ready, and several warships with new paint have also entered the Sea Demon Chapter's activity area, just waiting for the sea monster to appear.

Hong Long continued to head north, his path sure to hit the southbound Star of Hope in a few days, and the small surveillance planes on top of the sea dragon's head did not stop, and the hired pilots did everything they could to keep an eye on the sea monster. Not only the pilots, but also the sea dragon were tracked on land, and since Hong Long spent a third of his day on land, it was not too difficult to find his tracks on land. But attempts to capture the creature on land have so far failed.

People have tried to use tranquilizer guns, but the range is limited and the penetration of the warhead is not enough, so it is very dangerous to get close to the sea dragon to a certain distance. There is no record of success in traps, and this sea dragon is quite cunning, and its intelligence is probably close to that of killer whales. Hong Long will now pay attention to the approaching helicopter overhead, and when these things get close, he will enter the sea, so he will not go deep inland.

Soon, the Star of Hope was already approaching the area where the sea dragon was currently active, and the monitoring aircraft had connected the signal to the Star of Hope's system. "I think we'll be able to catch it soon!" said the senior executive of the pharmaceutical company in charge of the operation. With sophisticated fishing sonar and underwater radar, it is not difficult to catch the whereabouts of the sea dragon - after all, Hong Long is different from the Sea Demon Zhang, he does not like to be active in the deep sea, at least he will not take the initiative to go to the deep sea of more than a thousand meters.

The sea dragon was large enough to be tracked, and he wasn't a creature with gills, even though his mouth, throat, and neck were able to absorb oxygen from the water, but not enough for him to move freely in the water for long periods of time, and Hong Long still had to breathe on the surface of the water after a long interval.

After the modification of the more than 10,000-ton Hope Star, it can sail at sea at a speed of twenty-six knots, which is already much faster than the sea dragon. As a result, the ship could easily follow the sea dragon, and the modified whaling cannon in the bow was fully loaded, and the whaling cannon with an automatic balancing system could shoot the whaling fork very accurately to hit the target, even in rough seas.

The hollow whaling fork is filled with anesthetic, which will be completely injected into the target under air pressure after hitting the target, and then the target will be immobilized, waiting for the speedboat on the Hope Star to approach the target to install an airbag and drag the anesthetized sea dragon into the cabin.

There are quite a few research facilities on the Star of Hope that could be used to conduct some research on the voyage before placing the sea dragon in a new cage, and so far pharmaceutical companies have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the ship in the hope that it will perform its design function perfectly.

The boat, as designed, kept up with Honglong. "What a hassle! The thought echoed in the sea dragon's head, and to be honest, he was entirely to blame for his own death. And after all these years, it is obvious that Hailong is completely different in intelligence and mind from Hong Long when he was a human - that is to say, he is more stupid than when he was a human being.

Just as the sea dragon was once again floating for air during the high-speed swim for an hour, the whaling cannon that had been prepared before opened fire. The whaling fork, pushed out by the gunpowder, accurately hit the sea dragon in the back under everyone's eyes - and then bounced off......

"What?!The steel spear head can't penetrate the carapace of a carbon-based creature?Am I watching a B-movie?" the captain in charge of this matter has already started grabbing his hair, "Hurry! Hurry up and get another one! Find out if our spare whaling fork is forged from carbide or high-carbon steel or whatever knife steel! Get moving!" he shouted.

In the warehouse located below the gun emplacement, the warehouse keeper quickly moved the whaling forks inside—although there were spare ones, and there were quite a few, it was difficult to meet the captain's requirements. It's just a living thing, who would use an armor-piercing warhead? And the muzzle velocity of the whaling gun is not very high, so it's useless to have an armor-piercing warhead - otherwise do you want to use a tandem explosive warhead? What nonsense.

However, it is now possible that a tandem warhead or a hollow-charge warhead is really needed, because the whaling fork made of high-carbon steel fails again in the second shot. The carapace of the sea dragon was harder than they had ever imagined, "Has this thing become a machine, or has it evolved an armored shell?"

"In the current situation, I'm afraid I have to use option B. The person in charge finally said.
