Chapter 138: Passing Through

Submarine bases.

"It seems that it is time to implement that plan!" Nie Yun touched his chin, and didn't seem to be worried about the exposure of the base.

At this time, the three people under Nie Yun had all arrived under his summons.

"Boss, do you have some mission to summon us?" The Boss asked.

"Hmmm! Our base has been discovered! Nie Yun nodded.

The three of them were stunned after hearing this, but although they were surprised, they didn't have any panicked looks, with the strength of their own boss, they were afraid that the guy who came to the door would be unlucky!

"So, there's a fight?" The third child had an eager expression.

"Fighting? Well, it won't be long before you get you on a good getle! But first, let's take a look at our new partners! ”

Nie Yun snapped his fingers as he spoke, and several floor-to-ceiling curtains on the side of everyone slowly rose.

The three of them looked along the open field of vision, and then gradually, everyone's eyes widened and widened......

There, in a huge undersea dock, a huge silver battleship was quietly moored......

……

"Lieutenant Colonel, in three minutes we will be in the area of the noise source, and no suspicious targets have been detected at the moment!"

Smith frowned, what's going on? It's been so long, and the other party hasn't done anything to deal with it, could it be that he made a mistake?

"Keep on your guard! Turn off the active sonar, dive 30 meters, and deflect 30 degrees to the left! Approached from the side! Silent subnorkel mode! Smith ordered.

He felt the smell of danger!

Because of the detour, it took a full 5 minutes for the Florida to finally come to the suspicious area, and the searchlight on the bow of the ship turned on, slowly sweeping around.

"It's ......," Smith's eyes widened as he watched the image coming from the monitor.

Numerous potholes, several mountains of ore, and mining equipment scattered all over the place show that this is a resource mining base!

Everyone looked in disbelief at the seabed mining area that stretched for kilometers and had no end in sight!

"Could this be Captain Ghost's resource gathering place?! How can the other side carry out such large-scale mining on the seabed? "Smith was completely stunned!

Originally, I thought that Captain Ghost was an organization hidden in the shadows, but since it was hidden, the scale would definitely be limited, otherwise there would be no strict secrecy at all!

However, now this scene clearly shows that the scale of this organization is far beyond ordinary people's imagination!

Moreover, the strategic significance of seabed mining is unknown.

It not only has advanced black technology, but also has such a huge organizational scale! Then the threat of Captain Ghost will skyrocket! It even threatens the global hegemony of the United States!

This news must be sent back!

Wait a minute! Why are there no miners here? All retreated so quickly?

What he didn't know was that in the hidden places around the Florida, countless pairs of eyes were staring at the slowly advancing submarine......

"Something is wrong! Stop moving forward! Smith seemed to sense the malice coming from all around him, and immediately ordered to stop going deeper!

However, it was already a little too late, and I saw that on the surveillance footage of the outside world, countless small dots suddenly poured out from the reefs and corals around the Florida, and even from the dark mines!

That kind of picture instantly reminded Smith of the scene of stabbing a hornet's nest when he was a child, and his scalp suddenly tingled!

"Unknown objects approaching, the number ...... The number is too many to count! At least 30,000 or more! "Someone exclaimed!

In fact, there was no need for him to report, everyone stared at the overwhelming little black dots on the screen in a daze, completely frightened!

The video screen was quickly zoomed into, and then everyone saw that it was a pocket-sized point-eared robot with hands and feet, and a small propeller behind it.

"It's ...... What is it!? ”

Smith didn't have time to think about other problems, and quickly analyzed the countermeasures in his mind, at this moment, there were all such weird robot villains in the front, back, right, and below, so he had no choice at all!

"Immediately go up at a high speed!" He immediately commanded.

Whatever these things are, they must never be allowed to come close!

He also did not order an attack, in the face of such an almost inexplicable scale and number, all means of attack were basically useless, and he could only flee!

As the high-pressure gas expells the water from the large number of fill tanks, the hull of the Florida bubbles up quickly!

After all, these mining wolves are not used for fighting, they are not fast, and they are not equipped with any weapons, they just rely on their numbers to bluff people.

The distance between the two gradually widened.

Smith had just breathed a sigh of relief when an exclamation suddenly came from the observer!

"Lieutenant Colonel! Radar has detected a large target on the surface of the sea! Azimuth 320! It's close to us right above! ”

"What!?" Smith was shocked, this was waiting for him!

But the weird robots below are still catching up, and just looking at the number that makes people's scalps tingle, he would rather choose the opponent above!

"The other party's model?"

"There is no match in the database, and it is not possible to determine the target model at this time, but ...... But it's huge! A conservative estimate is more than 2 times that of this ship! ”

"2 times!?" Smith exclaimed in disbelief.

The Florida's water displacement is about 12,000 tons, doesn't it mean that the other side has to go up to 24,000 tons?

A cold sweat appeared in Smithton's head, this is the strength of Captain Ghost?

"Slow down the ascent! No. 1 No. 2 heavy torpedo ready! Smith commanded decisively!

If you don't attack first at this time, it will only be worse when you come to the surface!

"Torpedo No. 1 No. 2! You're ready! ”

"Launch!"

"Knock knock!" Two supercavitating torpedoes were shot out and fired at a target on the sea at high speed!

But after waiting for a long time, I didn't see an explosion.

"What's going on!?" Smith was stunned.

"Fish...... The torpedo has clearly passed through the other side! Can...... But it didn't detonate! It's as if they don't exist! ”

"What?!" Smith was completely bewildered by the strange situation.

Passed through each other without detonating? Could it be that the other party is really a ghost ship? No entity?

"Torpedo turn attack again! Oh, my God! Again...... Passed through again! ”

What the hell is going on!?

"Nope! Wrong! It's not that the other side doesn't exist, it's the underwater detonation mechanism of the torpedo! Smith reacted incredulously.

The reason why the torpedo became famous in World War II, even among modern warships ruled by missiles, still occupies a place, is precisely its underwater detonation characteristic!

Because water is much less compressible than air, underwater detonation creates a cavity effect, and the explosion is several times stronger than in air! Almost a single torpedo can inflict heavy damage on a heavy ship!

It is precisely for this reason that the depth of attack is generally set in the torpedo, specifically to attack the underwater part of the ship on the surface of the sea!

Then the torpedo passing through the target can also be explained! The only possibility is that the other party's draft is extremely shallow!

But how could it be! Smith, who is familiar with his own torpedoes, naturally knows that they can attack surface ships at a set depth of 3 meters!

Could it be that there are also heavy battleships with a draft of less than 3 meters!? Even if it is a light destroyer, the draft is close to 5 meters, hey!

Could it be that the other party is an inflatable boat? Just kidding!
