Chapter 49: The Great Robbery at Sea 3

There were 400 sailors on board the Carlisle, most of whom had come to the upper deck to help carry the gold, and there were only a dozen sailors on duty in the passage to the forward magazine, and there was no one standing guard near the ammunition depot. Lin Han easily sneaked into the gate of the bomb magazine.

The door of the ammunition depot was locked, and Lin Han took out the tools he was carrying and began to pick the lock. For this operation, Lin Han found several locksmiths when he was in Germany and learned the skills of picking locks. His perception was simply prepared for picking locks, and the combination of the two, Lin Han only studied for a week before becoming a teacher. The Carlisle was built in 1917, and the door lock was a very ordinary old style of slotted lock, and it took Lin Han only a minute to successfully pick the door lock and enter the ammunition depot.

After setting up the explosive device, he sat in the ammunition depot with a large pile of 152-mm shells and projectile packs, waiting for the Carlisle to set sail.

At four o'clock in the morning, after the last gold had been loaded into the hold, the Carlisle blew its horn three times and set sail. In addition to the necessary personnel on duty, the sailors on the ship, who had been busy for most of the night, returned to the cabin to sleep. In peacetime, the naval officers of the British Empire were lax in discipline, and although today's warships are loaded with sensitive supplies, this is a 5,000-ton cruiser after all, and no one believes that anyone will dare to attack his idea.

Shortly after the Carlyle departed, the Sephiroth also "hoisted" him from a distance. In the darkness of the night, the Sephiroth was ten nautical miles behind him, at eighteen knots in sync with him. The sea conditions in the East China Sea in March are not very good, and the visibility at night is even worse, so in the era when there is no radar navigation, it is not easy for ordinary people to hang a boat in the dark and not lose it. But for the trailing Sephiroth, this was not a problem.

In the cockpit of the Sephiroth, a statue of Lin Han was placed in and fixed to the floor of the cockpit. The statue of a man and a woman standing back to back, representing the side of Lin Han, was now facing the bow of the boat. At this time, the right hand of the statue of Lin Han is raised straight, pointing forward, and occasionally the direction of the arm will be changed. The captain adjusted the course according to the direction of the statue's arm. When the statue's thumb is up, the captain will add to the Sephiroth and decrease it when the thumb is down.

After trial and error, Lin Han realized that as long as he was not more than twenty nautical miles away from the core of his spirit, he could remotely control the posture of the core statue of the spirit at a slight distance by losing a certain amount of faith power, and this was now fully used in this operation.

As the sun rose over the sea in the east, the sailors on the Carlyle's mast lookout appeared on the Sephiroth trailing behind, and the sailors reported to the captain, but the captain did not pay much attention to the "sesame bean" yacht.

At eight o'clock in the morning, when the sailors got up and started to eat breakfast, Lin Han, who had been sitting in the ammunition depot all night, activated the timed detonation device and rushed out of the ammunition depot.

When leaving the ammunition depot, Lin Han did not walk through the passage inside the ship, but along the passage of the bomb shaft connected to the main gun. After activating the timed detonation device, he climbed all the way from the ammunition depot along the ammunition channel into the 152 mm turret, at that time there was only one sailor on duty in the turret, and when he saw someone crawling out, he thought it was a comrade on the ship, and when he saw that the person who climbed out was a yellow man with black eyes and black head, he was surprised and inexplicable, Lin Han had already slashed his throat with a knife and killed him directly.

Out of the turret, Lin Hai came to the side of the ship, jumped into the sea, and jumped into the sea. Half an hour later, in the wheelhouse of the Sephiroth, a humanoid Heroic Soul Body was condensing and forming.

Glancing at the wall clock in the wheelhouse, Lin Han said to the pious captain: "There are still five minutes, tell everyone to get ready." ”

Time passed little by little, and the corpses of the slain sailors in the main turret had been found on board the Carlisle, and there was a little confusion on board. When the captain received this news and was about to give the order to deal with it, the deck under his feet suddenly shook violently.

Twelve nautical miles away, all the crew members of the Sephiroth saw a huge fireball and black plume of smoke rising in the distance. The Carlisle, whose ammunition depot was detonated, was instantly blown in two, and before most of the crew had time to turn around, it sinked to the bottom of the East China Sea more than 100 meters deep.

There was a cheer of excitement from the Sephiroth, and the veterans of the First World War had no pity for the sinking of the British warship except excitement.

"It's time to get to work!"

The Sephiroth was ordered by Lyhan to sail quickly to the site where the Carlisle had sunk. The surface of the sea was littered with debris of the Carlisle, mostly lifebuoys and fragments of lifeboats, as well as two sailors who were lucky enough not to be sucked to the bottom by the whirlpool of the sunken ship, each holding a lifebuoy floating at sea.

Without any mercy, when the Sephiroth passed by the two sailors, Lin Han directly used his ability to drag the two sailors underwater, and when the two of them surfaced again two minutes later, they were no longer breathing.

There will be no survivors on the sunken Carlisle.

At the location of the wreck, the Sephiroth lowered its anchor and stopped, and then Lin Han, dressed in a diving suit and breathing apparatus, stood on a crane-operated lifting platform and slowly sank into the water.

Salvaging dozens of tons of gold from a 100-meter-deep wreck, if it is a "human body" to carry out this task, it will last a few days at the earliest, but Lin Han, a non-human and unscientific deposit, is not a problem, and he is confident that the gold will be picked up and transported away in a very short time.

Ordinary humans, diving to a depth of more than 100 meters, is already quite a dangerous adventure. Later generations of human beings have tried the ultimate depth of 3oo meters or even more than 500 meters with advanced diving equipment, but it is purely experimental in nature. (Note: In Japan, the direct diving depth record is 31o meters set by the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force's diving medicine room, and the French marine development company has also set a record of 531 meters in deep diving.) The decompression time of these real divers after the fact will also be as long as 1~2 months).

The biggest advantage of Lin Han's heroic body over humans is that although his heroic body is forced to adapt to the laws of this world, it is not the fragile body of human beings after all, and many taboos when diving in depth have little impact on him: first he will not get decompression sickness, so he does not need to enter the decompression chamber to decompress after diving like ordinary humans.

(Note: Decompression sickness is a systemic disease caused by improper decompression after operation in a high-pressure environment, and the dissolved gases in the body exceed the supersaturation limit, forming bubbles inside and outside the blood vessels and in the tissues.) Divers who do not enter the decompression chamber after deep diving will suffer from decompression sickness, which is extremely life-threatening. )

With his perception, Lin Han easily found the gold storage compartment on the underwater wreck, and then quickly began the salvage operation.

This is just the beginning, not only the gold from the wreck of the Carlisle, but also the long "operation" that will be carried out underwater for years to come. From the Age of Discovery to the present, there are countless treasures that have sunk in the sea due to shipwrecks. Relying on his perception and deep-sea diving ability, Lin Han will salvage these treasures one by one and auction them off as funds for his future plans.
