Menatobe is a temporary existence of the Abyss for this battle.,Unlike other monsters, it's more suitable for action in the deep sea.,It has a strong attack power but its own defense is not very good.,Its prototype is undoubtedly a human submarine.。 Of course, the abyss has considered creating a boss with rough skin and thick flesh and high attack, but the time is tight and the resources are not sufficient, so he can only give up in the end.

Although it was to give up on strengthening the defenses, the abyss did not intend to let this thing attack only once before it was discovered and destroyed. Its back is covered with tiny tentacles, and at the top of it is a small ball of flesh that emits sound waves to confuse enemies by mimicking the movements of schools of fish or something else, thus hiding its true whereabouts.

The whale-like monster was carrying only one weapon, not a weapon to be exact, but a parasite with a severe tendency to self-destruct. They live quietly inside Menatobe's body, but once activated, they will use the energy nutrients they provide to grow rapidly, and even after being sent out of the body by Menatobe's specialized launch organs, this growth will continue, eventually reaching a terrifying size.

The parasite is a creature whose IQ is no match for a fairy who likes frozen frogs, and it does not possess the ability to see, and if it fails to find any targets nearby when it reaches the surface of the sea, it will spin around like a headless fly and set off fireworks for free for everyone. So while Menatobe doesn't need to rise to a depth where humans can detect it, hiding in the dark depths of the ocean to attack surface ships, it needs to locate ships by sound, otherwise it won't hit anything.

The defect in this aspect of the parasite is also the result of the abyss's rush and laziness, which was originally planned to allow the bugs to actively find their targets, but in the end, it didn't matter what happened. Parasites are sensitive to sound anyway, and the engines of human ships roar all the time, so it's not hard to find them.

There was nothing wrong with using sound in the water to determine the position of the opponent, and humans did the same when fighting, so Abyss was generally satisfied with Menatobe, who had been working in a hurry, and decisively threw him into battle. It's just that they never envisioned a situation in which Menatobe would find out if the surface ships were to turn off their engines and remain silent.

At least, Nangong Rong, who was carefully holding his breath on the last destroyer named Liqiu in this sea area, felt that the other party should have no choice, unless it took the initiative to float to a depth where the sun could shine and search with its eyes - the battleship naturally could not be invisible, but it was the same for monsters.

"It's been five minutes, and the monster still hasn't appeared?" Desya, who was sitting upright in her chair, was sweating profusely from her forehead, and the pressure she was under as the commander responsible for the lives of all the ship's people was significantly greater than the others, "Or is it gone?"

Even if the voice was very low, it still sounded like thunder in this room where the needle could be heard, and everyone couldn't help but be startled, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone's nerves are too tense, and it's no surprise that this happens. Fortunately, the soldiers who worked on the bridge were all formally trained, and everyone quickly sorted out their feelings, and the sonar officer who was questioned quickly shook his head and replied: "The other party has not appeared, and the passive sonar has always been quiet." In addition, the guy obviously had no intention of going up to the surface to watch his results, and was still lurking in the deep sea area where the sun did not shine, and the underwater camera could not find it. ”

Nangong Rong, who put forward the proposal to stop the ship, also relaxed at this time, and denied the assumption of the eldest sister's head and said: "The other party should not leave, when we sailed in formation before, we drove over it from the top of its head, and it knew very well how many boats there were." Besides, even if the main fleet knew that the monsters were in these waters, what could they do, and they could not risk being caught up by the abyssal forces to make a detour, and entering the other party's hunting grounds was the only option. So it doesn't have to move at all, it just waits here like a spider. ”

Hearing this, Disya couldn't help frowning, and turned her head to look at the communication soldier next to her with a worried expression on her face: "Has Rex received the contact from us?"

"Yes, they already know what's going on here, but Lord Rex hasn't given any instructions. ”

If Xiaoyin could still let her change into diving equipment and go to the monster alone, she might be able to open up the situation, but now there is no other way than to stay silent and wait for the arrival of the main fleet. Disya raised her hand and bit the nail of her thumb fiercely, feeling a deep unwillingness, but reason told her that she could only survive in the end by waiting for the main fleet to come over and join him in the big fleet, and the only way to act alone was to receive a bento.

In the face of predators, it is a reason that fish have a chance of surviving only if they join a large school of fish.

However, some guys are not willing to simply be a prey that runs away with their tails between them, even if they are in a similar situation to their prey at the moment, they can't change their determination to bite each other fiercely.

"Sister Disya, we can't wait like this forever. Nangong Rong looked at the sea outside the window and said in a firm tone, "Waiting for the main fleet to arrive to join them is only temporary safety, don't forget that the abyss is chasing after you, and being attacked by that guy here can easily cause catastrophic consequences." Although it is unlikely that the monster will try to block the fleet, it should not be difficult to slow down the fleet by entanglement, and when we are caught up by the abyss, what safety is there left?"

The adjutant standing near the captain immediately retorted: "The frequency of that monster's attack is not very fast, and the fleet can rush directly through this sea area. ”

"Yes, the frequency of attack is not very fast, but that's because it is extremely fast, agile, lightweight, and very small destroyers, who knows how fast the opponent will reach when it targets such heavy and huge ships as aircraft carrier battleships? Well, even if that is already the monster's ultimate rate of fire, which is only enough for it to fire a few rounds before the fleet leaves this water, do you think the other side will waste the opportunity on the frigates on the periphery? Or are you already rich enough to lose aircraft carriers and battleships at will without feeling distressed?"

The boy's rhetorical question made everyone in the bridge shut their mouths, and the expressions on their faces became ugly. Obviously, the situation that Nangong Rong said is indeed very likely to occur, and even if he and the others finally succeed in escaping, they will only continue to wait for death after they go back.

Di Siya scratched her scalp hard, and after weighing it repeatedly, she also tended to take the initiative to do something, but before that, the eldest sister needed to ask Nangong Rong's plan before making a decision: "So, what are you going to do?"

"First of all, I need two lifeboats. ”

——————————————————I'm a dividing line——————————————————

The lifeboats and transport boats, which can be smoothly lowered to the surface by slings on battleships, are somewhat similar but fundamentally different, the former is not equipped with any power system, and if you want to move on the sea, you have to rely on oars to row. Therefore, as long as the force is properly controlled, the oars can make a small sound, and it is not noticeable at all in the sea, where the ocean currents are surging and making many noises.

Nangong Rong's biggest worry is that the monsters in the deep sea can even hear and distinguish the sound of paddles and then attack, but that kind of thing never happened, the abyss is designed and built to target the stealth hunters of the warship, and these small boats will not appear in its search target at all.

After rowing the dinghy to a distance of 100 meters from the destroyer by using the ocean current, Nangong Rong and the two soldiers who volunteered to assist him untied the rope and released the other dinghy that was tied to the stern of the dinghy and pulled forward together. The lifeboat, which was planned to be used as bait, was naturally unoccupied, but it carried a high-powered tape recorder.

Well, it was forcibly requisitioned from a certain reluctant sailor, who would take out the tape recorder and play all kinds of hi while playing songs on the deck when he was free on weekdays, and then ...... The tape recorder came to the unmanned lifeboat.

"Are you sure that thing will work?"

Regarding the inquiries of the soldiers around him, Nangong Rong just calmly spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "Do you have a better idea?"

"Well, anyway, if you try it and don't lose money, maybe you can really lure that monster out. Another soldier turned sideways and looked down at the sea and sighed, "But there is only one boat, and less than forty percent of the ammunition (referring to anti-submarine weapons) remains, and as long as the engine is started, the other side will immediately find out, can we really settle the other side?"

Nangong Rong was silent for a long time before giving an answer: "Seriously, I don't know, but we can't just turn around and run away just because the other party treats us as prey, right? ”

After finishing speaking, there was no more conversation between the three of them, and they watched the unmanned lifeboat drift farther and farther away on the sea, until a relatively safe distance, Nangong Rong raised the remote control in his hand: "So, let's start." ”

No matter how far away the signal from the remote control is, it can't be transmitted.

Earth-shattering rock music suddenly sounded on the silent sea, and the volume was so loud that even Nangong Rong, who was far away, felt pain in his eardrums. Of course, this is a pre-adjusted volume, and the effect is as big as possible, otherwise play a lullaby with the sound of mosquitoes humming, are you sure that the monsters in the deep sea can hear it?

As long as the monster hears and reacts to the human's sounds, it will most likely reveal its location again, giving Disya the opportunity to attack itself. And Nangong Rong's dinghy also carried a torpedo firing component on power armor, which was the only counterattack weapon for the teenagers.

Of course, Nangong Rong thinks that he probably doesn't need this thing, because he only has a launch component, but he has no detection ability, so how can he fight if he can't locate the enemy?

The only one who can really rely on is the Liqiu commanded by Disya, and there is no turning back from the bow, once the destroyer moves again, there is no possibility of stopping and being silent, either the ship sinks or the monster is killed, there is no third result.

In the distance, a column of white water suddenly rose from the sea, and small lifeboats rolled in the air like leaves. The water fell again, revealing a lilac object inside, and the thing exploded on the spot, stopping the loud music abruptly. The damp waves swept towards the sea with the scorching waves, causing Nangong Rong's boat to jolt violently, and it was almost overturned.

At the same time, there was also movement on the destroyer's side, the engine was quickly started, and all kinds of anti-submarine weapons were thrown out like dumplings, and the target was Gong Rong and others.

"Damn, why are you coming at us!?"

Nangong Rong, who was holding on to the side of the ship and lowering his body to maintain his balance, was in the same mood as the soldier who asked the question at the moment, and he could only cry and laugh: "There is no reason, because that monster is just below us!"

Fortunately, Di Siya did not sacrifice the thoughts of Nangong Rong and the others, and these dangerous things flying out of the destroyer did not directly hit the young man's head, but got into the water on the sea near them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three of them hurriedly rowed the oars to let the dinghy leave the combat area, although they only left less than ten meters away in a short time, but at least they didn't have to worry about being killed by their own people.

The speed of the Liqiu did not slow down, but became faster and faster, and all kinds of anti-submarine weapons never stopped firing, and after seeing this situation, Nangong Rong's heart couldn't help but chuckle. Obviously, as before, the destroyer's attack did not really hit the target, otherwise if the other party had been killed, Disya would have ordered the ship to stop a long time ago, and then stood on the bow of the ship with her hands crossed and let out a smug queen-style laugh, using this strange way to welcome the return of Nangong Rong and the others, and would you run around like now?

How much time did it take for that monster to sink a destroyer before? Nangong Rong's face suddenly turned ugly after roughly estimating in his heart, if this situation continues now, it is estimated that in more than ten seconds, the Liqiu will become a large burning garbage on the sea. As for the monster that misses one shot and doesn't hit another shot or something, there may be such a plot in movies and TV series, but in reality it is not so simple.

And now, they don't even know where the enemy is.
