Chapter 420: Neglected Underwater Monitoring
Normally, people generally think that diving in the deep sea is a dangerous but romantic thing, whether in movies and television dramas, deep sea diving will always be accompanied by alien scenery, endless treasures, and incredibly large giant carnivorous sea creatures like dragons guarding treasures, coupled with the secret fight between humans in the submarine and the love of the heroes and heroines of the wonderful and fierce martial arts, if you say that the work is completely uninteresting, no one will believe it.
But that's just a work of art after all, and it's completely different from the reality of deep-sea diving. For example, Octavir would not be able to see the exterior of the ship now, and the imaginary blue waters would be densely packed with schools of colorful fish, and the curious dolphins would not even be able to see a shadow, because there were no windows or anything like that in this room.
"Why are there no windows?" the eldest princess finally burst out after playing poker with a cheap brother and sister for more than half an hour in the only room on the ship that provided oxygen, heating and lighting, "Do you know that such a design can make people feel very depressed?"
"What really makes you feel depressed should be the bad record of losing more than a dozen in a row, right?" Lin Weiyin said in a non-salty tone while squinting at Octavier, and almost wrote the words "Don't play if you can't afford to lose" on her face, "Close the window of the room or something, don't make any more excuses." Besides, even if there is a window, you can't see anything outside, because the sun can't reach this depth. β
"Tsk, what do you mean by losing more than a dozen in a row, you talk a lot. Octavir smacked his lips unhappily, "I also know that this ship is fully automatic, but this feeling of not being able to control the situation and entrusting all my net worth and life to others is really bad, and I can't accept it." β
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is good at and accustomed to controlling the situation, and only after controlling everything in her own hands can she have a little sense of security - this is a problem left by betrayal and assassination, and the empire does not have a psychiatrist to help guide her, and it has become a girl's habit over time.
However, Nangong Rong didn't have the slightest idea of pity for the jade, he put down the playing cards in his hand after the girl complained, and took over the conversation: "Husband, you should treat yourself as if you are taking the bus at the moment, you can't go out and take the car and master the steering wheel yourself, right?" β
"That's right, but after all, if you take a car, you can see the driver, and now this unmanned battleship feels more like a ghost ship, okay! No, it's indeed a ghost that controls the battleship, and this is indeed a ghost ship, how can it be repaired!"
"So which would you rather take out a vehicle driven by a driver with the title of a road killer or a ghost ship that sails as steadily as a poi?"
Mechanical vehicles in the Razfeld plane are not equipped with many novelties in the army, and the number of civilian vehicles can be owned even less, and the owners of these civilian vehicles have not received professional driving training, and the public is also not aware of the dangers of high-speed cars, and road killers are simply not enough to describe the drivers who cause serious traffic accidents......
So after a moment of careful consideration, Octavir gave his own decisive answer: "Well, either one is dangerous, so I decided that it would be better to drive the vehicle myself." β
Eldest sister, do you know what a female driver is!? Nangong Rong, who was shocked into a cold sweat on the spot, hurriedly raised his hand and swayed again and again to try to stop the girl: "Qiaodou sack! That kind of profession with low threshold and low requirements but great lethality, let's not try it, it's easy to get into trouble." Compared to this, Angellot's side has already fought with the enemy, and the foot strength of their ordinary infantry is indeed more exaggerated than the wheels. β
Everyone didn't feel much surprise at the speed of the march with those pointed ears, after all, they had mentioned that they were prepared in their hearts before, so Octavir's attention was all focused on other places: "What about the abyss, has the abyss appeared?"
If the abyss sends an army of monsters to deal with Angelot and his party, although I am very sorry for those elves, it is undeniable that Nangong Rong and their next actions will definitely be much smoother, and the eldest princess can't help but care.
"Please, this is just the beginning, if the abyss really wants to pull out the reinforcements immediately, it only means that the other party has set a trap in advance. The young man smiled and pressed his hands to signal the girl to be calm, "Wait a little longer, the base that Angellot and they are going to attack is just a place for the enemy to stock up on supplies, it is not very important, and the abyss may not send reinforcements." β
Lin Weiyin, who was also putting down the playing cards next to her and was holding a bag of snacks that God knows where to take them out of the country and tasting them with relish, couldn't help but answer: "That's why my dear Ernie sauce deliberately stuffed those infantry chariots into the elves' ranks, right? With your ridicule of the abyss, I believe that the enemy will definitely swarm like mad dogs that see meat and bones." β
"Thank you. β
"I'm not complimenting you, hey!"
Nangong Rong didn't care much about the crazy sister of the cheap sister, he spread his hands very casually and shrugged his shoulders and said: "It doesn't matter if I praise me or not, anyway, that's what I really planned, I don't know if Angelot and they see anything." It seems that there should be none, otherwise they would not have agreed to bring the infantry chariot with them. β
Hearing this, Octavir snorted lightly: "The elves don't know your strange abyss-attracting physique, no matter how you guess, you can't guess that you are cheating people like this." Anyway, they're already fighting, so should we speed things up a little bit as well?"
"Rest assured, the ship will make adjustments on its own. The young man waved his hand nonchalantly as he shook his hand, "Okay, my chariot has also joined the attack on the base, and the abyss will soon get a report of my puppet's presence there, as for whether it will pounce like a mad dog......"
The boy actually didn't say anything about this, after all, the abyss used to behave so crazy purely because he saw him, but now only the words of the puppet may not have the same effect.
Time passed minute by minute, and Octavier and Lin Weiyin didn't speak to disturb Nangong Rong, but just put out a lot of snacks and drinks to make the room into a scene for afternoon tea, and waited quietly while adding to the weight data of the scales at the end of the month.
Although the connection with the puppet directly acts on the soul, it is still very exhausting to get farther away, and when Nangong Rong recovers from the [meditation] state with his eyes closed, the surface of his forehead is already covered with fine sweat, and his face is full of exhaustion.
"Sure enough, it's still too mentally draining, and I can't appreciate the battle between the elves and the abyss from beginning to end. However, those monsters have already appeared on the battlefield, but there don't seem to be as many as expected. β
The small number of monsters is naturally not good news, Octavir also understood what the boy was worried about, so he took the initiative to be relieved: "Maybe they are just because the scale of the teleportation array is not large, and they can't come so much in a short period of time, even if the abyss leaves a part as a reserve, the other party's attention is also focused on Angelot and them at the moment, we just need to do our own thing." β
Nangong Rong, who couldn't be sure if the abyss had been deceived, originally planned to rest for a while and continue to confirm, but soon an unexpected event made the young man unable to take care of this.
According to the contact sent by the heroic spirit who controls the battleship, the group has encountered a patrol ship of a toad. Originally, Nangong Rong wondered why he had prepared a large-volume and high-power detector for the aircraft carrier, but he couldn't find the other party at the first time, but when he learned the location of the enemy ship, he was so embarrassed that he didn't even have lines.
What kind of thing is that, people's patrol boats fly in the sky! Detectors targeting the sea and underwater can detect each other's ghosts from a long distance.
Fortunately, the enemy did not seem to be probing underwater, and the patrol ship searched for surface targets, and flew away directly from the head of the submersible carrier at a very fast speed, not to mention staying here to carefully probe without even slowing down. It seems that the other party is more concerned about the movements of the elven fleets of wooden ships, but if you think about it, this is indeed the reason, when your enemy only has a fleet of wooden ships that can only float on the water, why spend precious resources on anti-submarine?
Nangong Rong couldn't help but feel that he had been a little too cautious before seeing the state of the enemy sentry with his own eyes, but even if he had the opportunity to do it all over again, the young man thought that he would still choose to do so. After all, this guy's profession before he was forced to join the army was a hunter, and if he wasn't careful, he wouldn't be able to shoot his prey, and sometimes his life would even be in danger.
"We're almost there. After the patrol ship was completely far away, Nangong Rong said to the two girls in front of him with a sigh of relief, "Be ready to attack, if the abyss is not fooled and leaves part of the troops as a reserve, we must seize the time to fight quickly, destroy the port facilities as quickly as possible, and then run away quickly, so as not to be entangled by the steady stream of enemy reinforcements." β
That's why the combat power of these two people is needed, Nangong Rong obviously doesn't think that his low-performance mass production unit can cause huge damage to the port in a short period of time, otherwise he definitely wouldn't want to let them take the risk.
"How long is there?" As soon as she heard that there was work to do, Lin Weiyin's whole person immediately became excited, if it weren't for the frighteningly low temperature in the corridor outside the room and the lack of light, I was afraid that she would have rushed out at the moment to release the power armor for preparation, "It's okay to give an approximate time." β
When Nangong Rong heard this, he immediately made a rough estimate: "It's about 15 minutes, but I've already decided to speed up the battleship, after all, the enemy doesn't seem to have carried out any underwater monitoring at all, and the time will only be shorter." I'll be back in 10 minutes, and I'll be ready to strike by then. β
"Where are you going?"
"Go and convert most of the planes in the hangar into amphibious tanks. β
In order to save energy, Nangong Rong allowed the three of them to be concentrated in one room, but in fact, as long as the boy wanted to, he could completely extend the life-sustaining function to the entire battleship, and now was the time to do so. Nangong Rong needed to transform the puppet, Lin Weiyin needed to prepare the power armor, and Octavir also needed a relatively quiet environment to replenish and restore the magic power, so under the instructions of the young man, the cold ghost ship quickly [lived] again.
Of course, this will also increase the possibility of being detected by the enemy, but with the current anti-submarine state of the enemy......
Anyway, when Nangong Rong returned to the room before departure after finishing his work in the hangar, the young man did not receive the slightest alarm from the heroic spirit that they had been discovered by the enemy.
Octavir held a spear-shaped staff in his hand, while Lin Weiyin put the spare power armor on his body and turned his head to look at him when Nangong Rong pushed the door in.
"It's time, girls, come with me. The boy greeted the two girls and exited the room directly, and after making sure they were following, he led the way in front and said, "The enemy's harbor is right in front of us, let's set it all on fire with fireworks!"
"Ernie sauce, hasn't the second disease been cured yet?"
"Don't make a fuss, it's the point. Nangong Rong didn't see the slightest embarrassment, and continued to walk forward and said unhurriedly, "It's certain that the abyss hasn't discovered us for the time being, but after it surfaces, it's another matter, I estimate that there won't even be enough time to convert the aircraft carrier into a battleship for shelling." β
Hearing the young man say this, the eldest princess felt a little uneasy: "If there is no naval gun-level attack, the destruction of the port may not achieve the expected effect." β
Although she overturned the coffee table in her heart, Nangong Rong tried to hold back and didn't say anything, because it would only make her be beaten into a pig's head by the girl's crackling, and it would be better to rot the spit in her stomach: "Well, don't worry about this, I have added some ingredients to a few specially made puppets to ensure that the port will completely burn." β
The corridor was not long, and the three of them soon came to the metal ladder under the hatch cover, and then Nangong Rong took the lead, and everyone held the railing on the wall with both hands.
The eldest princess didn't understand why she did this at first, but then the sudden tilt of the ship's hull made her know whyβthe battleship was rising rapidly, and the girl could even feel its vibrations in the process.
The sound of metal rattling was clear.
Then, as if riding a roller coaster, the whole person suddenly fell sharply after reaching the highest point, and the loud bang and the ensuing huge earthquake made Octavir realize that the battleship must have jumped out of the water and slammed into the sea, which is very powerful just to imagine.
Nangong Rong also didn't wait for the hull to recover from the shaking at this time, and climbed straight up the ladder.
"Let's go!"
