Chapter 69: Ninety-Five Pioneers Form 3
It's close at hand, far away from the world.
A few groups may not have heard this phrase, but they definitely understand what it means.
The farthest of them was the F2 team, which started from the back of the car, wading through the gradually deepening waters, passing six military trucks, crossing the triple trailer fence, and advancing 100 meters in extremely difficult conditions! What's more, along the way, you have to be frantically hunted by "mimic" aliens.
Along the way, he threw away his equipment, gave up counterattacking, and didn't even look back to save his comrades, and finally climbed over the last obstacle and came to a position only a few meters away from the target E2 truck-
But he was firmly stopped by the oncoming waves next to the E3 truck!
You know, the E3 truck is the truck full of individual missiles and explosives, it has been set to self-detonate, and it is entering the final countdown...... It's desperate!
The self-detonation process can't be lifted, and even the E3 team is lying here!
Of course, no one can surpass F2 when it comes to grief, they really gave up everything, and in the end they moved themselves from one Grim Reaper to another, what can they say except complain about the unfairness of fate?
At this time, let alone moving forward, holding on to the fence to avoid being swept away by the water is already doing its best.
The water wasn't that deep.
The culprit is indeed the wedge-shaped water pattern formed by the head of the speeding locomotive when it splits the water that floods the tracks—like the waves of water on the left and right sides of a speedboat speeding on the lake.
However, this is not a wide water, but an undersea tunnel!
The wedge-shaped water ripples spread out and hit the concave tunnels on both sides, and then turned back to form a higher wave of water that slapped the trailer behind...... When the train is at its highest speed, it is not known whether a shock wave effect is formed, and it needs to be calculated with a pen.
However, the reality is that the speed of the train has slowed down considerably as the sea floods the tracks and the driving resistance increases. But the train moved forward at full power to push a larger body of water, and the final position of the wave crashing was exactly E3 point...... This accident was probably not foreseen at the beginning of the plan.
(Wang Hu and Ren Su nodded in unison: That's right, it's really unexpected, fluid mechanics is very complicated.) There are several mathematical models that are needed here...... Hey? How did I untie it? Wait, I'll do it 100 more times. )
While they were struggling, the trailer locked the truck's locks were suddenly broken. The E3 military card took a thunderous posture, "Boom! Bang on the guardrail behind the trailer! The steel guardrail was directly knocked into a concave shape.
"Ahh~~" Thinking that the truck was about to explode, several groups of people screamed in unison.
The only good news is that they can't rush through, and neither can the "mimic" aliens. The waves stopped several squads and also blocked the aliens who were trying to rush up and hunt behind them - they were just swimming against the current, not flying against the current.
"15 seconds to go! This car is going to blow up! The engineer shouted bitterly.
"Steady, we still have a chance!" A squad leader shouted in the channel.
"Yes, we still have a chance, I'm calculating! This is a model of a tunnel where the speed of the vehicle decreases further as the depth of the sea increases......" a graduate of the University of Frankfurt.
"Speak human words!"
"The waves move! As long as we hold on, it won't keep pushing at us, it will leave! ”
"10 seconds left until the explosion!"
"It's moving, but it's moving forward!"
……
"Fake friend grandma!" A group of people are scolding, why don't you even count......
The remaining dozen or so people were huddled on the left and right, bitter in their hearts. They curled up against the wall-like waves as they waited for their lives to come to an end.
They knew that the commander who gave the order could not be blamed.
Not to mention that staying in place will be torn to pieces by "mimic" aliens.
Let's just say that there is a problem with ordering the E3 truck to blow itself up, even if they are not notified in advance of the retreat? Without notice, directly sacrifice them, there is not a single problem from the point of view of the commander!
Patton had also sent people on suicide missions.
"Hold on to the rope!"
Just as they were in despair, the commander's voice suddenly sounded again in the channels of several groups, like listening to the sounds of heaven!
What rope? We haven't been given up yet?!
When they looked up, they saw four military backpacks rushing down the waves in front of them. When he arrived at where he was, he was suddenly pulled by something from behind.
The backpack is implicated and floats up, revealing the taut rope behind the backpack!
That's great! At that moment, it was as if I had ascended from hell to heaven!
"Tie the ropes! Submit! ”
Hearing the order, some subconsciously buckled the belt hook to the rope, and some grabbed the strap of the water backpack tightly. Before they could understand the meaning of the words, the rope tightened violently, dragging them forward against the current.
At the same time, a bright tail flame flew over their heads, leaving a trail of light in the pitch-black tunnel.
The super-caliber 112mm rocket flew into the bottom of the upturned E3 truck, and with a "boom" explosion, the E3 truck flew into the sky!
Below is the impact of the explosion, followed by the drag of the rear of the car stuck on the guardrail, the huge waves on both sides crashing against the side thrust of the carriage, and the centrifugal force of the train moving forward - the sum of all forces, the heavy truck is like a toy grabbed by a giant and thrown out!
Volleyed out of the train and plunged headlong into the waves behind him.
"It's going to explode!"
Zero seconds later—
"Boom !!!!"
An earth-shattering bang!
That truck full of missiles and ammunition completely detonated in the surge!
The explosion shattered the waves and killed hundreds of "mimic" soldiers hiding in the waves in an instant!
The transparent air wave pushed the wall of water, caught up with the rushing train, and slapped the back of the dozen or so people! They flew...... Fortunately or unfortunately, it is left to fate. The vast majority of those who flew up successfully grabbed the guardrail or the edge of the truck under the pull of the tow rope.
But the one who had a bad life was unhooked in the air and crashed into the tunnel, and was shattered!
Or be swept into the crack under the trailer with a "swish", and in the blink of an eye, a stream of blood will appear from under the water, and there will be nothing left.
Eighteen or nineteen survivors, and in the blink of an eye, five or six people were reduced, but all this was not over......
The entire undersea tunnel twisted and shook in the explosion, and railroad tracks and concrete sleepers flew everywhere in the air. Everyone held their heads desperately and prayed to the god Muhammad, the Buddha of the Three Purifications...... At this moment, no amount of calculation is useless.
After the explosion, the waves, the tremors, there were beautiful but terrifying embers.
Orange flames flowed through the tunnel like liquid, burning all the air as it chased towards the train. The orange-red flames seemed to be slow and urgent, and they kept biting at the back of the train, almost burning to the tail of the military train! After a few seconds, it was slightly thrown away by the speeding military column, and finally turned into a crimson background.
At that moment, the water was pushed away, and together with the original passengers of the E2 car, thirty people huddled together, everyone held their breath.
The flames of hell almost licked their eyebrows, but they finally let go...... At this moment, everyone has faith.
Seeing that the explosion finally died down, and before they could breathe a sigh of relief from their happiness, there was a loud "boom" behind them again!
Still coming?
And this roar was noticeably different from the previous ones, this time it was dull and profound, as if it were a cry from the earth's crust.
The ground shook, and the cement cracked.
The reinforced concrete tunnel, in the eyes of everyone, is as soft as dough, pulled and squeezed, and then flattened.
The undersea tunnel, which had been drilled with holes everywhere, finally ...... Collapsed!
*****
Hundreds of millions of tons of seawater are on the head, and the structural damage caused by the explosion will cause a chain reaction once it collapses.
Instead of collapsing to both sides with the explosion point as the central point, it is a submarine crater-like whole that sinks downward!
Even the sea surface was pulled out of a large whirlpool, and the scene was really scary. Both the satellite and the president of the United States, who had just finished tweeting in the morning, were taken aback...... Hey? Britain is sinking? I've got to tweet it!
Wang Hu himself was also frightened by the huge scene.
What does the destructive effect of the explosion say about the fact that it is far more destructive than calculated? It shows that there are structural hidden dangers in the Anglo-French Submarine Tunnel itself, and it is likely that there is a huge "cavity" underneath, which is why it collapsed so badly...... I'm afraid that the "mimics" that will be crushed to death are not in the thousands.
Although "mimics" can survive underground and underwater, it does not mean that they can withstand the repeated ravages of gravity. In the sudden collapse, the stone is no more than powder.
And that's what Wang Hu is afraid of......
As we all know, "Edge of Tomorrow" is about Tom being thrown to the Normandy landing battlefield, and the rookie broke through and accidentally killed a blue alpha-class "mimicry".
Stained with Alpha's blood, he gains the ability to reset time.
Specifically, it's not that he has the ability to reset in time - it's that he becomes the "coordinates" of this ability to reset.
As long as he died, time was reset to a day ago by the higher-level "mimic" Omega Meow...... Remember, it's not the Alpha Dog that's really bullish, it's the Omega Meow.
And Omega Meow has a lot of dogs, it doesn't care if it's the one that dies, anyway, it feels like a dog is dead and resets.
It doesn't matter if it's just a human with dog blood...... Idle is also idle, who can guess Meow's thoughts?
Wang Hu was afraid that he was chasing the "mimic" alien, and accidentally hid an alpha dog!
If the dog dies and time resets, everyone will be busy in vain.
Especially people carry memories every time they reset, "Groundhog Day" Everyone knows that time resets cheating, and if you fail once, people won't play so much next time, and they will be stuck in traffic directly from the beginning.
Even if Wang Hu has the ability to turn the tide, he can't turn the tide.
Fortunately, after waiting for a few seconds, I didn't see any signs of time being reset, so I was relieved.
It seems that the dead are all ordinary "mimics", and there are no alpha dogs in them - it is okay for people to die, but not for dogs.
It's so true that people are not as good as dogs.
