Chapter 247: A Monster Three Thousand Meters Deep in the Sea
Dolphin 202 is the latest deep-sea universal submarine developed by TPC after incorporating a private company focusing on deep-sea exploration, taking the Longgong deep-sea submarine manufactured by this company as the prototype and adding TPC's world-leading high-tech technology.
The Dolphin 202 uses a superconductive engine that can move at high speeds on the surface and in the deep sea, far surpassing any other ship in the world, and is armed with Monroe underwater missiles and D cannons that can also be used in the deep sea.
However, at present, the Dolphin 202 still uses the old engine and energy source, because the latest engine is still being tested, so it is still a semi-finished product.
"What? Semi-finished products? Holding his helmet and walking in the new town leading to the corridor where Dolphin 202 is located, after listening to Horii's introduction, he was immediately dumbfounded, he was going to the deep sea, or the dangerous deep sea, and the only thing he relied on was the deep-sea submersible, which was still a half-finished product.
"Why are you so loud?" Horii looked like 'rare and strange', and continued: "Although it is only a half-finished product, it is also the best deep-sea submersible in the world, and people as smart as me have to take it, so why don't you dare to take it?" β
"What do you mean by that?" Xincheng immediately felt offended.
"I don't mean anything..."Horii shut up before he finished speaking, because he saw Mayumi standing in front of him, patted Shinjo on the shoulder, strode forward, and when he crossed Mayumi, he said, "Don't worry, I'll bring Shinjo back safely." β
When Horii walked away, Xinjo said with a smile on his face, "Obviously, I want to bring him back safely." β
"Hmm!" Mayumi, who was a lot haggard, nodded, forced a smile, and said, "My brother is the best, he will never let me down, no matter when, as long as I need it, he will appear by my side, and it is my greatest luck to be your sister." β
"Why are you talking about this?" Xincheng scratched his head a little embarrassed, took two steps forward, hugged Mayumi with one hand, and said, "It's just a normal mission, there's nothing to worry about." β
"I'm not worried, I just miss you." Mayumi hugged Shinjo with both hands and buried her head in his arms, hugging her only loved one tightly as she did that day when the sky was full of dark clouds, and as before.
After just hugging for a while, Mayumi let go, the smile on her face was even bigger, and said, "Okay, hurry up, don't let the Horii team wait for a long time, I'm going to work too, bye." β
After saying that, Mayumi turned around and hurriedly ran away, Xincheng stood in place, looking at Mayumi in the distance, and felt very uncomfortable, and when he walked to Horii, who was waiting for him, he said: "Mayumi has always been worried about me, especially last time..."
Horii nodded with deep understanding, and said: "Our job is to deal with monsters and cosmic people, how can the family not worry, many times, even if it is 0.01 second slower, it will be hit by monsters, and then the plane crashes, and in a short period of a few seconds, it is as difficult as waiting for the judgment of fate." β
"What do you say, it seems that I have more experience than me, and I have crashed with Dagu a lot more times than you."
Horii rarely didn't go back, but said very seriously: "Because every time I watch you crash and you can't do anything, it feels worse than falling yourself." β
Shinjo looked at Horii with some emotion, and Horii looked at him too, and the two looked at each other, and... In unison, they said, "It's time for us to go." β
The F1 hangar, which is responsible for the maintenance of the Dolphin 202, is quickly and carefully checking the condition of the Dolphin 202 to ensure that the maiden voyage can start and return smoothly.
Shinjo and Horii sat in the cramped cockpit, conducting the pre-voyage inspection according to the operation manual, and when everything was done, Shinjo reported, "Dolphin 202, the inspection is complete, ready to go." β
An alarm sounded inside the F1 hangar, and a pleasant female voice broadcast resounded throughout the hangar: "Dolphin 202, ready to go, the transmission is activated... Dolphin 202 has reached its position, and the sealed hatch is closed. β
In the sound of the broadcast, the Dolphin 202 was dragged by the tractor to a position only a wall away from the ocean outside, the rear hatch closed, began to fill with water, and only after the water was full and the Dolphin 202 was floating in the water, the front hatch to the ocean was opened.
"Dolphin 202, let's go!" With a shout from Shinjo, Horii slowly pushed the engine control lever, allowing the power of the engine to gradually increase, slowly leaving the base, and entering the vast ocean before he began to accelerate, heading towards the sea more than a thousand kilometers away.
Although the Dolphin 202 is already the fastest ship in the world at present, the speed is not as fast as the average sports car, so the distance of more than 1,000 kilometers takes several hours to arrive, so after diving the Dolphin 202 to a depth of 500 meters, Shinjo and Horii turned on autopilot, and took turns to go to the temporary room in the back to rest.
However, they are not alone, there is a Feiyan-1 hovering back and forth in the sky above, not only to escort it, but also to transmit the data of the Dolphin 202, after all, this is the first voyage of the Dolphin 202.
Lina sat in front, bored looking at the unchanged ocean outside, muttering, "I really hope that ship can be built as soon as possible, so that we can send Dolphin 202 directly to its destination." β
The big Gu behind couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What ship?" β
"Didn't you get a driving simulator?"
"I didn't have time to read the information sent to me, so I went to deal with the Totomachi incident, and I have been working on it until now." Da Gu couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, first the sleeping monsters in the mountains that induced acid mist, and now the mutated monsters on the bottom of the sea and unknown energy sources covered with garbage.
From the harmful gases emitted by human beings to the garbage discarded by human beings, there is a sense of fatalism that the sins created by human beings in the past are now repaid.
"It's a real spaceship, I just don't know when it will set sail, I really wish I could sail that ship into space, it must be beautiful." Lina thought wistfully, her only pleasure in the past was flying in the airplane, and now she had more fun, but flying airplanes was still her second only hobby after the new pleasure.
Knowing that she would be able to drive the first real spaceship in human history to space in the future, she was so happy that she didn't sleep well for two days, and she dreamed of dancing with the stars.
Dagu also smirked, and only after Lina finished speaking, did he say, "I will do a good job of escorting." β
"Alas, escort?" Lina couldn't help but be stunned when she heard the words, she didn't react for a while, and even began to think, in the training content, is there anything about escort?
Da Gu said very self-awarely: "If I say it's better not to drive that ship, otherwise I won't be able to afford to pay for my life." β
Lina was silent for two seconds, and said with a joke in her tone: "Dagu team member, why do you think that you can pay for the salary of your life and take off the Yan No. 1?" β
"......" Dagu felt deeply offended, and even had a feeling of piercing his heart.
The two of them were passing the boring escort time in the way of 'flirting', when they heard the voice of Xincheng coming from the communication channel: "We are going to dive." β
Dagu and Lina immediately stopped laughing, became serious in a second, and said, "Machine No. 1 received." β
At a depth of 800 meters under the sea, Dolphin 202 began to go down, the number on the depth gauge continued to increase, and the expressions of Shinjo and Horii became more and more serious, several pillars of light that were several times brighter and more penetrating than Ryugu, constantly sweeping around, and at the same time, special cameras all over Dolphin 202's body showed the captured pictures on the display screen in front of Shinjo and Horii for them to know the situation outside.
It's just that, at such a depth, the sun's rays have long disappeared, and you can only see the area illuminated by the light that comes with Dolphin 202, which is empty and terrible, and even fish are rarely seen, because Dolphin 202 constantly releases sound waves to disperse fish, so as not to encounter fish impacts, because of the speed of dozens of knots, if you hit a large fish in the deep sea, something will happen.
The depth is gradually increasing, and the atmosphere in the Dolphin 202, Feiyan 1 and the command room is becoming more and more solemn, and all the team members are looking at the screen screen, except for the sound of Horii and Shinjo reporting meter readings from time to time, no sound can be heard.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the location where the Ryugu deep-sea submarine found the garbage patch, and the more penetrating pillars of light brought a wider field of vision, and also allowed people to see more garbage, and strange fish with different degrees of mutation were drilling around in the garbage.
Some of them still have plastic bags and other garbage hanging on their bodies, as if they have hung up a deceleration umbrella, swimming with difficulty, until the plastic bags are hung on large garbage, and they can no longer swim freely, they can only go back and forth in a small area, and they are lucky to get rid of the plastic bags, and the unfortunate ones are directly entangled and dead, and they can't move...
There was no time for Horii and Shinjo to digest and sigh, they had to move forward and investigate the unknown energy source, so the streamlined Dolphin 202 continued to move forward, pushing away the dense garbage, alarming a large number of strange fish to come out of the garbage, colliding with each other, and even hitting the shell of Dolphin 202, making a 'Bang! Boom! The sound is terrifying.
Soon, the Dolphin 202 jumped over the coordinates where the Ryugu deep-sea submarine had finally arrived, and continued to move forward, and the crying sound described by the TPC oceanographic survey team also reached the ears of the two of them, and then transmitted to the Feiyan 1 and the command room through the radio, so that the victory team heard an unknown sound that was indeed similar to the cry.
"What's that sound?" Xincheng listened to this voice, looking at the garbage that almost filled his field of vision outside, and his heart was inexplicably a little irritable, but he was pressed down, trying to keep his brain calm and thinking.
Horii was also listening, but as he listened, he was also judging the location, and said, "Right in front of us, it's coming from the location of an unknown energy source, and it seems that we can solve two puzzles at once." β
Xincheng said casually: "It can't be a monster, right?" β
Horii's heart suddenly burst, and he suddenly felt that this voice was more and more like a monster, but he was still denying this terrible possibility, and said, "Where did so many monsters come from?" β
Xincheng was originally just talking casually, but now that he thinks about it, he thinks it is very possible, after all, at such a deep seabed, who can make such a loud sound, his right hand couldn't help but tap a few times on the keyboard, called up the weapon operating system, checked the Monroe underwater missile and the D machine gun, and said in his mouth: "Since Gorzan appeared, there is nothing impossible in this world." β
"Yes!"
The two of them continued to move forward, and everyone in the command room also heard the conversation between Shinjo and Horii, Munakata stood up straight, his brows were about to wrinkle, he was thinking, if there were monsters in such a deep sea, what would the victory team do?
The missiles and cannons carried on the Dolphin 202 are used to clear rock formations and obstacles, not to deal with monsters, so if they do encounter monsters, I'm afraid...
Thinking of this, Zong Fang immediately said: "Captain, I think it is better to suspend this mission and wait for the deep-sea unmanned submarine of the TPC oceanographic survey team to conduct reconnaissance." β
When Megumi heard this, he immediately understood that Zongfang was worried about the problem of monsters, if he encountered a monster at such a deep seabed, Dolphin 202 would not have a good way to deal with it, once there was a problem, it would be almost a certain death, and there was no possibility of survival.
Before she could think about it, Horii's surprised voice came from the channel speaker: "What is this?" β
Xincheng, who was inspecting the weapon system, hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" β
"The energy source is starting to move, and the direction is... Coming towards us. β
"What did you say?" Xincheng was shocked, hurriedly put down the weapon system, and put his eyes back on the screen, only to see that the red dot representing the unknown energy source had left its original position and began to come towards them, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
Horii came up with an incredible guess: "Is this thing alive?" β
"Monsters?" Xincheng wanted to slap himself, but it was really a crow's mouth, and he had nothing to say about a monster, so he hurriedly grabbed the joystick and shouted, "Horii, let's hurry back." β
