Chapter 344: Return to the boat
Qin Feng was indeed right, it really became very cold after a while.
The Marines pulled several solo diver thrusters out of the withered reeds, and Natasha could see what looked like a torpedo and why the submarine hadn't shown up.
"I don't have a wetsuit, but it's not far, so I'll just take a moment." Qin Feng pointed to the thrusters that the soldiers were activating and motioned for Natasha to put the non-waterproof items on her body into the waterproof bag.
Wouldn't he have asked me if I could swim first? Natasha rolled her eyes silently, everything on her body was not waterproof, but no one seemed to care about it.
"Is there one missing?" Natasha asked suddenly, and he noticed that only one soldier was operating two thrusters, while there were two people idle.
Qin Feng knocked on his armor, "Do you think I need it?" ”
Natasha was given only a clear breathing mask and a palm-sized oxygen tank hanging from the side of the mask. She has seen similar underwater propulsion on the tubing, and the special forces of many countries will purchase this device to assist soldiers to infiltrate behind enemy lines from underwater, of course, she has only seen it, and the marines inevitably teach her a set of procedures.
The moment she entered the water, Natasha only felt that the skin on her body suddenly tightened, and the biting cold made her fingers stiff for a while, but fortunately, the thruster had an unmanned mode, and a novice like her only needed to hold the handle.
The water of the Lotus River has become clearer and clearer after a long time without any human activity, but after all, the river is wide, and the bottom of the river is still slightly turbid from a human perspective. Natasha felt something in the water seep into her skin with her soaked clothes, tickling and making it uncomfortable.
And when she tried her best to look around in the water with poor vision, she saw that the guy in armor was dragging a string of small bubbles and "flying" quickly into the distance.
The word "flying" could not describe Qin Feng's speed at the moment, and when everyone only vaguely saw the lights of the submarine, Qin Feng was already boarding the boat.
Every move in the water is jerky and difficult, and when she sees the lights, Natasha is shocked that there are submarine headlights installed on the compression-resistant shell, but there are even more fantastical things that make her follow the movements of others, and the reality and the experience on the Internet are useless here.
When approaching the behemoth in the water, they did not lower their altitude and entered through the torpedo pipe, but the thrusters in their hands raised themselves until they were level with the bridge of the submarine.
That's when Natasha realized what she should have been most shocked about, a wide platform like a helipad at the tail of a destroyer.
The thrusters began to slowly land on the platform in a swooping attitude, and with a slight bump, the thrusters seemed to be attached to the platform by a magnetic force.
Standing on the rectangular grid-like deck, she even had the illusion of staying on the water.
The underwater environment made it difficult for Natasha to tell the size of the platform, but she could vaguely see two five-lobed submarine propellers slowly rotating not far away, just like a horizontally axis wind turbine on the ground, this was the first time she had seen a submarine operating underwater from this perspective, which was a rare opportunity that many people would not have.
On the side of the platform near itself, a stout parapet stands at the edge of the platform. There must be some unknown special role, Natasha thought silently.
A Marine cautiously swam up to her to receive the thruster and pointed her in the right direction.
The bridge faces the rear side of the platform, and a door that looks heavy at first glance is slowly opening, and the soldiers are pushing the thrusters inside.
Natasha numbly followed the team towards the inside of the door, feeling that she was not a qualified soldier, because she could not find a single submarine or ship in active service in her brain that could be compared to it.
It was a small cabin, with a ceiling almost level above a person's head, and the Marine motioned for her to hold the handrails on the wall with both hands behind her back and her back to the wall.
As the door closed silently, white lights came out, and the river was rapidly lowering its level, and Natasha could finally see the environment.
Unfortunately, because of the small space, the Marines had already packed the walls, and she couldn't see what was behind the people with her eyes wide open, but there were some signs on the ceiling indicating weapons, probably emergency weapons stockpiles.
Who would hide a weapon inside the ceiling instead of the wall? With this question in mind, Natasha is ushered into another cabin by the team, and none of the others enter.
Looking at the row of showers in front of her, Natasha was stunned for a long time, and couldn't help but curse in her heart, "It's shameful to waste!" ”
Then he happily rushed to the nearest shower head.
In the command cabin, Qin Feng, who was concentrating on checking the situation of the Russian army's migration team, suddenly became strange, and he asked Captain Alek in a daze: "There is a bathroom on this boat?" ”
"Yes, Akula is an oversized ocean-going submarine, and the shower room is the standard configuration of ocean-going submarines, and we have additionally renovated a sauna and swimming pool, although the space is limited, but everyone is already very satisfied on the submarine."
Alec did not understand the meaning of the Supreme Commander's sudden question, but he still gave a sincere explanation from the perspective of a subordinate to dispel the commander's possible doubts, so as to prevent these things that would ensure a little more fun in the boring life of the submariners from being curtailed.
"Stop." Qin Feng raised his hand to stop Alec's gushing explanation of which engine was the source of the heat in the sauna, only to see him look around a little sneakily, and then found a chair to sit on,
"I'll take a nap and don't speak."
Immediately, Qin Feng closed his eyes.
Natasha, who seized the opportunity to enjoy the luxury of bathing, almost combed every pore carefully, and the alluring aroma of the unfamiliar brand of bath on the shelf made her frequently marvel at the cost of the submarine and the corruption and degeneration of the personnel on it, and the steaming heat made people completely lose the sense of oppression on the earth that did not know when life and death.
Qin Feng, who was taking a nap, suddenly beckoned a communicator and whispered in the other party's ear: "Go to the cabin next to me to get a set of clothes and send it to the shower room at the back of the bridge." ”
"Understood." The correspondent nodded, and trotted towards the passage with a serious face.
Qin Feng temporarily lived in the captain's cabin, and the small room next door was originally planned to be lived by intelligence officer Darsha Fedoroviczi, but due to the dispute with Toyama Shan, neither of them could keep up with this journey, but some personal clothes were ready.
"The figure should be about the same......" Qin Feng held his chin and thought for a moment, and then leaned back again.
