Chapter 338: Undercurrents under the Arctic Ocean
"The Arctic, an ocean that is mostly covered by thick ice, looks snowy here, but in fact the ice is moving slowly, and even if you plant a flag on it, maybe come back in a week and you won't find it again." Captain Rogers looked down from the window and couldn't help but sigh.
"Why, I remember what happened to you." A hand was pressed on Captain Rodgers' shoulder, and he looked back to see Kane standing behind him, "It's okay, you didn't float that far, and you finally got it back." ”
"Yes, but there are some things that will never be recovered." Rogers smiled bitterly, Peggy. Carter finally did not escape the power of the years, died a few days ago, most of the senior officials of S.H.I.E.L.D. attended her funeral, Rogers still served as her coffin bearer, Kane was supposed to give him a vacation, but he still took the initiative to come back to participate in the operation, it seems, is hoping to dilute the grief in his heart with the mission.
"Hey, Steve, you still have us, don't you?" Bucky, the captain's old friend, also walked over and punched Rogers in the chest in their way.
"And Hydra, the old rival you're familiar with." Kane laughed too.
"yes, thankfully they are there, and I can't wait to kick them in the ass." Captain Rogers finally smiled, and with this new group of companions, he wouldn't feel lonely, "By the way, Kane, how did the reverse trace turn out?" ”
Seeing Captain Rogers turn the subject back to business, Kane also put away his smile, "It's not good, Hydra has also learned to behave, the fishing boat docked through the satellite screen is still a fishing village, just closer to the Arctic Circle, and it has been abandoned, and I haven't found many useful clues." ”
"And why we're circling here?" Rogers frowned and asked, didn't he think Hydra would be stupid enough to set up a secret base in a place that could be seen by the naked eye.
"Wait." Kane also cast his eyes on the ice and snow below, "Now there are people searching below, but this time we have to face the enemy also has an ability, in order to prevent them from absconding again after they find out, we must give them a fatal blow at the first time, maybe today or for a longer time, but we also have to be ready at all times, how about it, captain, no problem, right?" ”
"Hehe, boy, when we were fighting, it was much more uncomfortable to lurk in the ice and snow than now." The captain was a rare old man, and Bucky also remembered what happened back then and smiled.
The seemingly calm Arctic Ocean has always been a busy scene, because if you go by water, in fact, the Arctic Ocean between Eurasia and the American continent is the shortest trip, of course, it is not ordinary ships that can take this waterway, and the most important is also a nuclear-powered submarine.
Originally, it was just the United States and the Soviet Union that were rampage in this ocean, but with the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a polar bear, another red dragon rose on the Eurasian continent and entered this ocean in their place.
However, unlike the pursuit of larger and faster Russian submarines, China's nuclear submarines are more focused on concealment, and at this moment, one of China's most advanced strategic nuclear submarines is passing through the bottom of the Arctic Ocean.
"Report to the captain, the American nuclear submarine has been discovered!" A loud voice sounded in the submarine.
A man in a white naval officer's uniform immediately came up behind him, "Confirm the model." ”
"Yes." After a few seconds, the soldier was overjoyed, "Captain, it's the Ohio class." ”
"Ohio-class, are you sure?" The captain was also overjoyed when he heard it, the Ohio-class is the best nuclear submarine in service in the United States, and it is also one of the imaginary enemies of the Chinese Navy.
"That's right, Captain, this is it."
"Okay, let's see if we can avoid its eyes, fully turn on the vibration isolation device, and move forward at a constant speed."
Under the captain's order, all the sailors cheered up and concentrated on the operation, and the entire submarine moved forward silently, while the Ohio-class did not react in the slightest.
One nautical mile, two nautical miles, China's submarine has entered the effective attack range of the US submarine, according to common sense, if it is discovered by the other side, it should have received active scanning by now, but the Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine is still moving forward unhurriedly, it seems, really nothing has been found.
"The ship... Captain, they really haven't noticed us, do you want to send them a signal to anger them? The sailor who was the first to discover the American submarine said in surprise that the submarine where his comrade-in-arms was located last time circled the Japanese Self-Defense Force naval base with the national flag, but he was envious.
"What nonsense, we're still testing the equipment, since the effect is very good, of course, the later they know, the better, this will have a surprising effect. Monitor it honestly, and report any abnormalities immediately. ”
"Yes, Captain." Although the sailors were a little disappointed, they didn't care, the captain was right, the good things should be hidden, and then they would be taken out to scare the opponent when it was critical.
"Hey, Captain, there's something strange about this Ohio-class, what do you think is behind it?" The water pointed to the screen and said, and the captain hurriedly looked over as well.
The screen shows the hologram of the Ohio-class ship, and it also covers a distance around it, just behind the hologram of the submarine, there is a much smaller image, which looks like a killer whale in size, but the most surprising thing is this, the killer whale is an intelligent mammal, rarely cruising around the submarine, and still stays in the tail with a propeller.
"Is this the new weapon of the Americans?" The young sailor guessed boldly.
"Not really, you see that thing is very similar in shape to killer whales, and the way it swims is also very similar to that of animals."
"Maybe it's a mechanical shark that the Americans studied?"
“... You kid usually watch less science fiction movies, what's the use of a mechanical shark, it's not as big as a missile. ”
At that moment, the strange thing turned its head to look this way as if it had spotted them, and then swam in a different direction with a flick of its tail, but the strange thing, which behaved exactly like the killer whale, had a metallic reflection on its skin.
The submarines of both countries did not see this, and the strange killer whale continued to swim in the direction of the Arctic Circle, and half an hour later, it suddenly spotted something strange in the sea.
It was a thick metal pipe that ran against the edge of a cliff on an island that led to the bottom of the sea, where a spherical metal structure lurked into the rock wall.
