Chapter 315: Uncharted Sea (01)
The outcome of the matter was similar to what they expected, after the completion of the cargo dumping, the submarine and the cargo ship were given different orders, Christie and the others were ordered to go to a certain dock in Panama, the submarine 876 chose to go to a country in northern Brazil called Wangdomiga, as for the other 8079, which did not communicate with them at all, and left directly, heading for the American continent.
"Our order is, Tony Hill, in the north of Iceland, almost to the extreme." The cuttlefish looked at the nautical chart and said, "This place is not close, do you have any new orders from above?" He didn't plan to ask where Chong Fist was going anymore, now he just wanted to listen to the decision from above, and he didn't care what these people thought, even the crab claws.
"We'll have to wait." Heavy punch said.
"We have been led by the nose at sea for the past few days, inexplicably, hope is shattered again and again, I look the same everywhere, it is impossible for them to take us to a more valuable place, these little people know too little things, they are just acting according to the orders of the 'clock tower', and it is unlikely that they can get more information by tracking them." The ghost has been utterly disappointed.
"I just want to go ashore now." The crab claws were also completely out of shape, and it was clear that he had spent enough time on this submarine.
"Wait for the order!" The heavy punch is also completely directionless.
At this time, the same Christie who had been reported came to say goodbye to them, saying that there was something to give them.
The ghost took his pistol and checked it, inserted it in the back and went to socialize, but soon returned, bringing a few crates of beer and some food, and this Christie was also a spectacle person, and after a polite greeting, he sent something and left.
"This guy is good." The ghost pulls out a bottle of beer from it, picks the lid open and drinks it.
"The other two submarines have already departed, when are we going to wait?" It's too boring to wait.
"It depends on how long it takes to make a decision." Heavy punch, you said helplessly.
Unexpectedly, the above decision was much faster than they expected, and in just a few minutes, they received a message from Junyi, the content was very simple, tracking 8079.
"Sure enough, we don't have a goal, but it's sent to us when I don't know where to go." The ghost drank a beer with the look I already knew.
In fact, they also understand the above meaning, whether it is another submarine or a cargo ship has their whereabouts, those two locations can send land personnel to investigate, and the whereabouts of this 8079 boat is the most interesting above, the other three locations can send people to investigate, where this submarine is going is indeed a mystery, if they give up 8079, then they may lose a new target, so before there is no clear direction of action, tracking the whereabouts of this submarine is a task and handed over to them.
"Boring life, boring tasks have to go on!" The ghost went back to sleep with the wine bottle, he had completely lost interest in the follow-up, his curiosity had been exhausted after so many days, they were very excited when they went to the Bering Sea, full of confidence, although they did not achieve their goal there, they also tracked it all the way, but now they found that this road is basically equivalent to a toss in vain, the harvest is too little, it is simply negligible, but this kind of day seems to continue, which really makes him not excited at all.
"Or else? What else can we do now? Now in addition to tracking the whereabouts of this submarine, it basically can't play any other role, even if there is a mission given to us, we can't rush over in a short time, but fortunately, at least we can confirm a few new locations related to the 'clock tower' on this mission, as for the size of the value, the people above have to send someone to see, and the rest of this one has to rely on us to track down and see where they go, I don't believe that none of these four locations are valuable. Heavy punch said.
"It's come to this point, there's nothing more to say, go ahead!" In fact, the cuttlefish also wanted to end this mission as soon as possible and go back, but the above did not give him this opportunity.
The feeling of ocean tracking is actually not good, they almost never have a chance to surface to see the situation outside, the next few days, they almost spent in this dark situation, when the tracking will end is still unknown, the submarine has always maintained a depth of nearly 200 meters, the speed is not fast, in the deep dark water, like a wandering monster.
"What are they going to do?" The ghost was a little restless, after all, the feeling of not seeing the sun for a few days was indeed quite bad.
"Economic speed, they're moving at the lowest consumption, and in terms of time, they should be about to surface for a breath." Cuttlefish said.
"Minimum consumption? Are they saving fuel? Heavy Punch asked.
The cuttlefish nodded, "So to speak, so it is inferred that they will most likely have to travel a long way, and there are no supplies in between, so it is necessary to reduce the consumption and extend the voyage." ”
"Extended range? Damn, won't that be a long time? As soon as the ghost heard the news, his head grew.
"It's almost time for us to go up and get some air." The cuttlefish sighed, "But the weather outside is not good." ”
"It's raining?" The ghost asked absentmindedly.
"It seems that there is going to be a storm, we have done everything that should be done before this, otherwise it is not certain when this storm will end, this submarine is too old, and the endurance time under water is short, and it is easy to breathe when it goes up, otherwise it is easy to suffocate." Cuttlefish said.
Soon the submarine was on the tutorial, the periscope was deep, the ghost was lying in front of the quiet, looking at the situation outside, and sure enough, the sky was overcast, as if a storm could come at any time.
"It's as dark as at night, and I can't see anything except the feathers of the waterfowl, and it's a terrible feeling to not see land for too long." The ghost was disappointed and said that although he knew that it was not sunny outside, he realized that the weather was much worse than expected.
"Let's get away with it as soon as possible." Heavy punch said.
Floating ventilation is one of the routine operations of ordinary submarines, generally more advanced submarines can continue to sail for at least 7 days, and in the past, conventional submarines could stay underwater for at least three or four days.
The endurance of the submarine with the "Stirling" anaerobic closed-cycle engine can reach thousands of nautical miles, and it can sail underwater continuously for 2-3 weeks without floating, thus greatly improving the underwater maneuverability of the submarine, but it is obvious that their two submarines are not so advanced, and they are using a old-fashioned and outdated equipment, so they will insist on three or five days at most in the water, and go up to the top for air circulation, although they are saying that the submarine has carried out a series of upgrades, but in essence there is still a big gap with the modern submarine.
"Actually, there are benefits on submarines, no matter how big the sea is still stormy, there is no feeling below." Worm said.
"It's like falling into a bottomless pit in the sea at a depth of a few hundred meters, in all directions, without boundaries, and it doesn't feel good." "Actually, I hate deep-sea diving. ”
"I heard that you are very famous in the industry, although you don't like this job?" The bug thought it was strange.
"I do a good job because I work hard, and it has nothing to do with whether I like it or not, a person is good at doing something, not necessarily because he likes it, at most it can only be regarded as suitable." Cuttlefish said.
"That's right, liking and fitting are two different things, this liking is not that piece of material is also in vain, but whether it is suitable or not, it may not produce results, unless you can hold on, this is similar to finding a partner." Worm agrees with this view.
"Obviously, I persevered, but I don't like this industry, after so many years, I can finally survive until I leave the submarine and go back to teach, but I didn't expect to have to come to accompany you to toss around, I thought it would be a three-to-five day mission, but now it seems that it will take a long time to end this mission, and it can indeed be described as far away." The cuttlefish looked helpless, and it could be seen that he was quite bored with his current situation.
"Is this for us, or is it just a whining?" Crab Claw said later, "Pay attention to your work attitude, although your rank is higher, I am also obliged to remind you." ”
"You bastard, don't stand and talk without backache, we're just a few people, we don't even have a chance to change shifts, it's not easy to persist until now, if I continue like this, I can't guarantee that nothing will go wrong, it's not a trivial matter to have problems underwater, so you'd better get to know each other and don't mess with us." The cuttlefish said with a cold face.
"Well, you're the boss, I'm just reminding you to get your mind right." The crab claw shook his head.
"What do you mean by shaking your head? Think I'm not right? Or do you think I'm threatening you? "The cuttlefish actually began to press closer.
"Alas...... Let's go. Heavy punch whispered to the insects and ghosts, he was not in the mood to watch the two of them arguing here.
"That's ......" The ghost shook his head and stepped back with a punch.
The three of them went back to rest, only to find that the griffon was warming up with his men in the small space, and it seemed that they were also quite bored, so they looked for something to do.
"Prisoner's fitness method?" The ghost looked at them and said.
"It's just a reasonable use of this place, it's too boring, you have to find something to do, otherwise your brain is prone to problems." The griffon said, wiping her sweat.
"Someone has already had a problem." Sitting on the bed on the side, "I finally understand why this cuttlefish is going back to teaching, his state is completely unsuitable for long-term sailing in the sea." ”
"It shouldn't be too serious, otherwise he wouldn't have been sent." The griffon said.
"Don't forget, when they were sent, they didn't know that there would be such a troublesome thing in the future." The ghost made a lot of drifting bottles out of wine bottles when he had nothing to do, basically making one after drinking one, and throwing him out when he was ready, but he found that this thing was getting more and more, but he didn't catch the opportunity once, and these days they are now in the periscope, and the depth has no chance to surface at all.
"You put that thing in place, don't break it, it'll get the glass ballast everywhere." Heavy punch reminded him.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid, I know what to do." The ghost said.
"You're not stupid in the first place, at most sometimes you're a little lacking." Worm said.
"Hey......" The ghost sat angrily for a long time, not knowing what to say, he knew that he was definitely not the opponent of the insects, whether he was fighting or moving.
"This time, we will retreat, this place is really not able to stay, besides, it's been too long to come out, I have to go back and see, the ghost is likely to need help, although she doesn't say it, but I know that he has been in trouble." The griffon said.
Heavy Punch nodded and said, "It's okay, you're basically wasting time here, we can hold on, don't worry." ”
"It seems that the 'clock tower' is much more difficult to deal with than we expected, and your retirement plan can only be extended, but now that it has been decided, don't change it again, and hopefully after this is done, you can leave and start a new life." The griffon said.
"I will." Heavy Punch nodded.
"Your wife and children will probably come to Tokyo next month, so if you have time, let's get together!" The griffon said.
"She always runs over there, but I haven't encountered it once, I can't help myself now, it's still unknown whether I can catch up, I'll find a way, if I can try to rush over, if I really can't, I can only forget it." Heavy punch said.
"Alright! Not reluctantly. The griffon sat on the side and didn't speak!
No one knows what the result of the quarrel between the cuttlefish and the crab claws was, but the expression of the crab claws was ugly when he came back, and he didn't know if he made concessions in order to take care of the overall situation, or if he was scolded for his blood, in short, he seemed to be quite unhappy.
In the process of tracking down 8079, they have received news from 03 one after another, and through the investigation of the other three locations, they have discovered more hidden industries of the 'clock tower', which can be said to be very rewarding, and they are preparing to take further actions to see if they can obtain greater gains through these hidden industries.
This made them feel a little more balanced, at least their tracking investigation played a certain role, and it was not a waste of time, maybe through this operation, they would have greater gains, not necessarily.
"From this point of view, in fact, this time we are not a toss in vain, at least a few targets have been determined, and now the outer tentacles of the 'Clock Tower' have basically been cut off, and the destruction of these hidden underground industries can have a real impact on them." When the ghost heard the news, he was quite relieved.
"That's not our business, no matter how big the harvest is, at least we haven't touched the heart of the 'Clock Tower', which can only be regarded as a consolation prize for us, much worse than we expected." In fact, he has always felt that it is a pity that the Bering Sea base is not the headquarters of the 'Clock Tower'.
"That's right, to find out where this submarine is going? We can sort of make a deal, and then hurry ashore and find a place to rest, I have enough in this tin can, and I want to take a vacation. The ghost said.
