Chapter 79: Talking about money hurts feelings
Even if Rex and the others plan to turn around and launch a counterattack, it is impossible to completely annihilate the abyss behind them, and at most they will fight with the other party and lose both. If there is a real defeat for both sides, the battle will be a defeat for humanity from a strategic point of view, because they will not be able to effectively replenish the lost combat power. To sum up, Nangong Rong didn't believe that the waiting fleet would launch a counterattack with all its might, and it was estimated that it was just a show.
The purpose is to cover Lin Weiyin's actions, so that she can have the opportunity to go around the back of the abyss to attack those mechanical ships, since the enemy is so precious to them, then after they are attacked, they will naturally rush back to protect, and then the main fleet of the human race will have a chance to use the chaos of the other party to defeat the enemy in front of them and escape.
Of course, all of this is premised on things going very well, and if the Abyss hadn't chosen to turn back to the rescue in a panic, or if it had pounced in anger after the sinking of the mechanical ship, it would have been a different story. But it's worth taking the risk of reasoning, anyway, there won't be any good results after being caught up by the abyss, so it's better to take advantage of it now.
And in addition to having no other candidate for Lin Weiyin to perform this task, she is the only one who is the most suitable, after all, the human submarine force has long been reimbursed, and the abyss of long-term combat with human surface ships must be all focused on the sea surface, and there is basically little vigilance underwater.
Even if the girl is finally discovered by the enemy, she can easily get rid of the opponent with her out-of-specification speed. Besides, the flying units of the Abyss don't seem to have strong anti-submarine capabilities, even if they are followed by a group of clownfish.
After careful consideration, Nangong Rong gave up the innate skill of using ferocity against Lin Weiyin, this is not a boss who is rough and chewy, the high-powered torpedo carried by the girl is definitely enough to deal with ships;
Just when the boy made up his mind to use the skill on the girl, a certain golden straight loli suddenly interrupted him with a sweet voice: "Wait, Sao Nian, before you do it, this system has a proposal that I hope you can listen to." β
"It's as if I'm about to do something strange to you, and you're reminding me of the three-year start before I make a move, and if you want to find fault, you can say it. β
Ignoring Nangong Rong, whose face was dark and gritting his teeth, the system continued to put on a [I am serious] appearance with both hands in his arms and said: "I didn't want to find fault, this is a very serious topic. Sao Nian, the mission I released this time is to help the fleet get rid of the pursuit of the abyss, and the reward is still 500 experience points, but do you think you can complete this mission?"
Nangong Rong raised his watch and glanced at the time, deciding not to toss any daily life of wasting brain cells with the belly black loli in front of him, and planned to get straight to the point: "Don't talk nonsense, what do you propose?"
"Tsk, if the boy is too anxious, will it reduce the heroine's favorability?" Although the system said so, it quickly retracted the funny expression after all, and said, "You can't help with the fleet battle, so you can only focus on this girl." However, all buffs and debuff abilities have a duration of five minutes, which is sure to be enough if you're on the front line, but staying in the back is a bit short - so, how about the duration of the increased ability?"
Sure enough, it was a rather serious topic, the young man nodded and approved the system's proposal, and then asked with concern: "You're right, what about the specific price?"
"It hurts to talk about money, you can pay with experience points. The first exchange is 5 minutes for 100 XP, 5 minutes for the second 200 XP, and so on. β
Jin Changzhi Lori didn't lower her voice when she said this, but not only Nangong Rong, but even Lin Weiyin next to her and the logistics technicians who played soy sauce couldn't help but have black lines on their heads, and they all looked very speechless.
As the user of the device, Nangong Rong has gradually adapted to the daily life of the system when it is fine, and with the unscrupulous intensification of Jin Changzhi Lori's unscrupulous intensification, his level of complaining has also risen, and the system here has just finished speaking, and the young man over there can't wait to go crazy: "Well, it hurts to settle with the imperial gold dollar, let's settle it with the common currency issued by the alliance - your emotional card is really tearful, hey!"
It's a pity that no matter how much the boy's level of complaining increases, he is only forced to exercise, and when the system offers a higher level of daily throwing exercises, he is helpless, as it is now.
"Tears are nothing, you should be more grateful. You must know that this system not only does not let you pay with cash and chooses to collect experience points with kindness, but also abandons the rule that you can only exchange it with a fat girl, otherwise you will have to be a gentleman if you want to increase the duration of your skills!"
What else can Nangong Rong say about this? decisively snapped and turned off the watch screen to shut up Jin Changzhi Lori for a while, and then put on a serious face, squinted his eyes, and seriously considered the matter of using the experience points in his early sixties correctly.
At least it seems, whether he's seriously considering it or whether he's trying to fool the people around him to hide his embarrassment is only for God to know.
Lin Weiyin originally wanted to laugh, but in the end, she tried to hold back, raised her hand and patted Nangong Rong's shoulder and reminded: "There is only one minute left, if you want to do something, hurry up." β
Time was short, and the boy didn't have much choice, so he added ten minutes of effect duration to Swiftness and Level 2 Blessing Techniques, and the six hundred experience points in his hand immediately turned into floating clouds in the sky. Originally, Nangong Rong was ready to consider the so-called all-powerful guardian shield, but this skill would isolate the sea water from the outside of the shield, causing Lin Weiyin's underwater propulsion component to not work, and in the end he had to give up.
"A quarter of an hour is enough time for you to complete the task, be careful. Nangong Rong said to the girl seriously after using the skill on Lin Weiyin, "Also, don't come up and sink all those mechanical ships in one go, it is estimated that the effect of sinking one and injuring a few will be better?"
A big question mark suddenly appeared on the girl's head.
"Well, just do what you do, and it's not too late to sink the remaining enemy ships when the fleet starts to retreat or the abyss rushes towards you. I'm sure Rex or Disya will send you similar instructions soon after you attack, so keep that in mind for now. β
So, with a head full of questions and puzzles, Lin Weiyin, who was neatly equipped, crossed the side of the ship and burrowed into the dark seawater.
ββββββββββββββββββI'm a dividing lineββββββββββββββββββ
The sea water at night was as black as ink, and Lin Weiyin dived to a depth where even the sound of shelling and explosions on the water surface turned into a dull sound like knocking bricks on a partition wall, and she naturally couldn't see anything with her eyes alone. Under normal circumstances, the girl should have activated the active sonar to avoid becoming blind in the depths of the sea, but she did not do so.
Although those monsters in the abyss were attracted by the main human fleet, they belonged to creatures after all, and they had a decent sense of hearing, so there was a lot of risk in activating active sonar.
In this kind of ghost place, it is really impossible to distinguish between southeast and northwest, but fortunately, the movement on the water is also not small, and Lin Weiyin can determine her position through these battle sounds. Thanks to the fact that there are no islands, no reefs, and no underwater peaks in this area, it is so spacious that Godzilla will not bump into anything if he rolls here, so the girl can just keep in the direction and not worry about what she will encounter.
A few minutes ago, Uncle Rex really sent a contact to Lin Weiyin as Nangong Rong said, explaining to the girl the goal of this battle. The boy guessed correctly, and the uncle also asked the girl not to quickly sink the mechanical ships in the abyss, creating the appearance that those ships were being attacked underwater to induce the large forces of the abyss to turn back and rescue, so that the human fleet could get a chance to escape.
If it's all sunk at the beginning, then it's still tempting a fart, and it's strange that people don't rush over in anger. Of course, if the fleet really can't leave, the uncle also allows the girl to let go of her hand and attack with all her might, after all, the abyss is very precious These mechanical ships, if you are desperate with the enemy, it will naturally be the other party where it hurts.
As for Lin Weiyin, who was surrounded by her, if she really wanted to escape, the abyss would not be able to stop her, after all, these strange monsters had given up the sport of underwater swimming for a long time......
In addition, not being able to stop does not mean that the girl will be able to retreat with her whole body, the other party still has some means to attack underwater targets, and if you are too careless, it is likely that the boat will capsize in the gutter - etc., it seems a little wrong to say this in the sea?
The wreckage of a severely deformed broken fighter plane slowly passed by, which startled Lin Weiyin and quickly came back to her senses, she had not even had time to see if there was anyone in the cockpit before it had sunk into the depths of the dark sea and quickly disappeared.
The lights around them were not as good as the fireflies in the fields on a summer night, but the girl knew very well that if they rose to the surface of the sea, she would find that they were produced by a raging fire that lit up almost half of the night sky and set half of the sea on fire, and the battle on the sea was so fierce.
We have to hurry. The girl gathered her mind and sped up a little, and after advancing some distance, she suddenly heard the sound of some kind of creature swimming in the water, not too far from her.
Lin Weiyin hurriedly turned off the propulsion component, and not long after she stopped, a team of small underwater monsters called M-type by humans quickly swam over the girl. These creatures are one of the Abyss's methods of attacking underwater targets, and they serve the same role as torpedoes in the water, but they are rarely found at such depths these days.
It's likely that some monster noticed an anomaly underwater, but wasn't sure why they let these little guys out to find out. Unfortunately, they don't have much of a catch-up ability, and their only advantage is that they are fast and can briefly jump out of the sea to fly a temporary cameo cruise missile.
It's still a little worse to search.
Lin Weiyin, who had successfully evaded the enemy's search, waited until the M-type monster was far away before moving again, and this time she was much more cautious, diving down for a distance until she couldn't see anything around her in the real sense. Now the girl couldn't even perceive the light on the water, a signal that could barely guide her, and she could only tell the direction a little by sound.
But it didn't matter, she was so close to her goal that it didn't matter if she was a little off the beaten track.
The sound of the battle gradually became smaller, replaced by the sound of some kind of mechanical roar began to slowly become louder, of course, it was not clear to the ears alone, Lin Weiyin knew the location of the enemy fleet through passive sonar.
The girl did not rush to the surface, but listened carefully to the movement on the water, and made sure that there was no escort near the enemy fleet before making a move.
Uncle Rex asked Lin Weiyin to make as much fanfare as possible in the contact, and it was best to hear and even see the abyss monsters in the fierce battle on the front line, so that the other party could hurriedly turn around and return to help. So after the girl started to act, she no longer consciously hid herself, and at the same time rushed towards the sea at full speed, she also fired several torpedoes.
The other party obviously had no defense against the underwater attack, and did not react at all after Lin Weiyin sprinted and even fired a torpedo. The abyss should think that it has driven humanity to the point of desperation, and now the only thing to do is to collect the head and win, but he never expected that someone would sneak into his rear.
Well, this is also related to the fact that the previous researchers have never figured out the components of underwater warfare, so that the power armor team has been fighting in the air and on the sea, and the abyss must have thought that power armor can only do this, ignoring the possibility of it entering the underwater.
Now it's time for those monsters to pay for their contempt.
All six torpedoes hit, three of which were hit by Lin Weiyin on the same target, and the other were one shot from a boat. The girl did a good job of following Uncle Rex's instructions, but the results were somewhat unexpected.
The ship that had been hit by three torpedoes did not sink on the spot, despite a large hole in the bottom and continuous flooding, and the other three ships that were attacked did not even have scratches, and the torpedo fired by the girl was blocked by an unknown shield.
"Ah, I see, no wonder I was so arrogant that I didn't arrange guards around. Seeing this, Lin Weiyin couldn't help but snort coldly, and then the whole person burned again, "But it's not over yet, my torpedo can be fired in bursts." β
