Chapter 3: A Sperm Whale Nightmare
A thrilling sea basilisk attack has finally come to an end, and a comfortable night for all the staff of the Phoenix Ship ensued. Although the sea snake monster incident brought shocking frightens to the majority of tourists, after Yun Longfei and others turned the tide, in many cases it was only regarded as an instantaneous hallucination. No, on the morning of the 6th, most of the tourists started their leisure life again, and some even threw the thrilling scene that happened yesterday into the clouds. Time is time, the trend of removing the old and welcoming the new is deep-rooted, who still remembers the sad scene of the day? However, Yun Longfei and the others disagreed. They were very interested in the event. Why? That's their mission. Yun Longfei, Zhou Qiaoqiao, and Ouyang Lan were instructed by the Pacific Special Command Center to comprehensively investigate the truth of the mysterious shipwreck accident in the Northwest Pacific, discover and eliminate all kinds of hidden dangers that may exist, and form the Northwest Pacific Special Operations Team headed by Yun Longfei, or the Special Action Team for short. Taking into account various factors, the National Security Bureau selected Jin Kun, Ma Jue, and Xia Xingyu, who were superior in overall strength, from among the millions of secret recruits, to join the Einsatzgruppen and assist the three people. The entire plan was kept strictly secret, and even the specific weapons and equipment of the Einsatzgruppen were known only to the Einsatzgruppen. The State does this for the sake of the personal safety of the Einsatzgruppen and the smooth implementation of the operation.
Mornings are short and precious. The bright sun lazily scattered ten thousand golden rays of light, ravaging the rough sea. With a small amount of green algae floating, a rare green is brewed on the local sea surface, which is finally a little more pleasant.
Visitors flock to the deck to experience this delicate sunbathing.
The Einsatzgruppen quietly hid in a corner of Starbucks near a window, sipping lattes and tending to their belongings. Every time Yun Longfei took a sip of latte, he glanced at the sea in the distance and thought thoughtfully. Zhou Qiaoqiao analyzed the mystery of the sea snake monster attack on the smart computer, and compared it with previous rumors, and his passion for work was extremely high. Ouyang Lan compiled a large number of pictures of sea snake monsters attacking passenger ships and prepared to write a special report. The tuna pulled out a few darts and wiped them around, and couldn't put it down. Ma Yu racked his brains to create various ancient style poems, and used literary language to share extraordinary sea experiences with fans. Xia Xingyu is the most leisurely, only caring about designing the maximum catch skills of fishing nets.
"The results are analyzed. According to all the information available so far, these sea snakes are a new species that has never been seen before. From the only time we had a face-to-face encounter, it was known that they had no relationship with ordinary sea snakes. My main concern is where they come from, and why do they attack humans? Zhou Qiaoqiao kept flipping through all kinds of information, supporting her forehead with one hand, looking powerless.
"Obviously, they're coming at us. It is no exaggeration to say that the shipwreck in the Northwest Pacific Ocean is absolutely inseparable. With such a strong strength, it is easy to destroy a shipload of living beings. We escaped this time out of pure luck. But there are three things that I wonder: What can the skin of the sea snake withstand the fire of a bullet? What's the matter with the metal pieces in their brains? Also, what was the mysterious creature we encountered yesterday when we rescued Japanese tourists? Yun Longfei took over Zhou Qiaoqiao's smart computer and began to search for a series of causes and effects.
Ouyang Lan looked up at everyone, looked at the pictures she had taken again, and felt a little strange in her heart. "Where there is a cause, there must be an effect. Just like Brother Long said, we have found the clue of the matter, but we still need to figure out the root cause of the matter, so that we can give a clear explanation to the world realm. ”
"Good sister. The conclusion was made too soon! Look at my tattered fishing nets! Xia Xingyu couldn't bear the silence for a long time, and raised the broken fishing net casually, and an 8-meter-long titanium wire mesh was laid diagonally on the floor, which was already full of holes, and it was indeed tattered. This titanium wire mesh is made of a special hafnium alloy, and the mesh is coated with a special anti-corrosion titanium alloy material, which is comparable to diamond hardness. The performance is unique, and it is known as the world's first-class! Who would have thought that such a hard mesh would be bitten by some kind of creature, it is really amazing! "I would like to ask you, is there a creature in the world that has teeth as hard as diamond? Tyrannosaurus rex, dinosaur, megalodon, Melville whale? Or great white sharks, killer whales? Or those terrible sea serpents? ”
The tuna carefully examined the mysterious tooth marks left by the bite of the titanium wire mesh and shook his head. "Man, they only have 10 fangs, how can they leave ring-toothed marks? If your titanium mesh is really that hard, then you should completely rule out sea snakes. The hardness of our hulls is not much worse than your titanium wire mesh, they can't even bite the hull, how can they challenge the bottom line of diamond? It is clear that we are being attacked by another creature at the same time. ”
"It's far from being as simple as it seems. Perhaps, we have entered some kind of labyrinth of unknowns, all by luck and creation. This is where our marine biologists are the most visionary. Miss Qiaoqiao, isn't it? Yun Longfei threw a mysterious smile at Zhou Qiaoqiao. This sudden humor overwhelmed her.
"Okay, you little boy of Long Fei, make me happy......" Zhou Qiaoqiao was embarrassed and shook him angrily.
"Look at the sea scenery, the sea is a wet poem, with mystery, elegance and beauty, drawing out the charming waves of sperm whales, flying down from Mount Olympus, quietly intoxicating your long-sealed heart." Ma Yu shook his head and chanted poems, reminding everyone to pay attention to the "New World" on the sea outside the window.
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet a lovely sperm whale during the voyage! Why don't you hurry up and experience the beautiful scenery? A visitor at Starbucks screamed excitedly when he saw a sperm whale. Many people rushed to the deck to catch a glimpse of the sperm whales. The Einsatzgruppen is no exception!
Yun Longfei and Zhou Qiaoqiao walked out of Starbucks after the most reluctance, and Zhou Qiaoqiao stopped him from behind. "Long Fei, through your performance in the last two days, I admire your humanitarian spirit. I've known you for more than a year, and I haven't noticed this shining point! But with all due respect, I don't approve of your risky behavior, which would only cost you your life. The work of mastery is the most critical prerequisite for success. Do you understand? ”
Yun Longfei was silent for a few seconds, did not look back, just smiled faintly. "It's too early to tell, one day you'll understand the truth."
It may be that nature loves to dance with humans, and a rare deep blue emerges on the surface of the sea. This brilliant wonder has enchanted countless eyes and cameras. Cyanobacteria, brown algae and sargassum come out in a deep and fascinating way, and the hazy colors of the green kingdom are deeply fascinating. Despite the expanse of the ocean, a hint of an oasis always evokes the love of tourists. What's more, the rare appearance of sperm whales is the icing on the cake. When will you encounter these adorable sea monsters? Who doesn't want to feast on these fantastic spectacles? La Mer House is getting rarer, more refined, and more sacred! For those who pursue divine beauty, they are not afraid of not seeing enough, but they are afraid that their dreams will not be complete!
The left side of the Phoenix ship is already crowded with tourists, and curiosity touches everyone's nerves. Ouyang Lan was even more full of spring breeze, like a little white rabbit escaping from the basket, jumping towards the crowd, with that curling posture, quickly penetrated the crowd like a wooden chicken, ran to the side of the boat, and enjoyed the sperm whale in front of him. With the continuous dynamic ringtone of the camera shutter, it is extremely pleasant and sweet!
This time, visitors saw 5 sperm whales, 15-18 meters long, all of which were adults. Although there are not many of them, they are very close to the Phoenix Wheel, less than 400 meters. They flirk on the surface of the sea with their huge bodies, and the clear spray adds to the color. From time to time, a magnificent spring flower is sprayed from the nostrils, which decorates the sea plain with a touch of wonder. is so natural that people look at Zhu Chengbi, and it is beautiful. At present, the sperm whale is swimming to the front right side of the Phoenix Ship and is slowly swimming to the southeast. Of course, everyone was unwilling to give up the opportunity, and they stood in front of the sperm whale background to take pictures.
With the help of Ma Jue, Ouyang Lan took a large number of sperm whale pictures and beautiful photos of herself, and got her wish. The sweet rhyme in my heart, hearty! Sweet laughter flies out from time to time, and the sugar content of the voice reaches 100 pluses! The breeze blows, the hair is soft, and then a trace of eyelashes is bent, and it is a good pair of clear water hibiscus Douchanjuan!
Everyone scrambled to the right side of the boat, only Yun Longfei and Zhou Qiaoqiao were not surprised by this, and took a leisurely walk on the open-air deck. It's really boring, sitting on a casual bamboo chair and listening to the cheers of the crowd.
"Everyone is vying to enjoy the wonders, why are you indifferent?" Yun Longfei put one arm on the back of the chair and asked her casually.
"That's my specialty, and it's all too familiar. I once rode a sperm whale in an aquarium and had a feeling you can't imagine. Zhou Qiaoqiao held the back of her head with both hands, looked up at the blue sky, and her arrogant words revealed three points of casualness. Why don't you follow Ouyang Lan and them in the past? ”
"Removing distractions and taking a break is good for your body and mind. I can't see that you, a well-known expert in ingenuity, are quite wild. Yun Longfei looked at her proud expression and couldn't help laughing.
"That's it! What do you think! Zhou Qiaoqiao replied very conceitedly, and suddenly felt that Yun Longfei's words were a little wrong, and after thinking about it carefully, he was actually sarcastic about himself! Is this worth it?! Instantaneously, his mood changed dramatically, "What? Long Fei, did you dare to say that I was wild just now? Hum! No one in the world has ever dared to say that I am wild! Nasty little brat, look at how my sister fixes you! She couldn't stand Yun Longfei's joke about her "boldness", and she smiled and rewarded him with a burst of "pincer hand", pinching his shoulders to a complete soreness!
In the wheelhouse, Captain Lin seriously monitored the sea situation in front of him. He Jing came over and reported the relevant information of the sperm whale in detail. Captain Lin didn't care, and said lightly: "The sperm whale surfaced to breathe fresh air, that is a normal physiological activity, no fuss." However, there is a lot of luck on the sea, and we shouldn't waste time here and sail to Octopus Land as soon as possible. Even if there is an accident, the Einsatzgruppen and special forces will solve it. ”
When the tourists were resting and entertaining, the special forces team headed by Kuang Feiwu never forgot to be vigilant, loaded with guns and ammunition, and made every effort to protect the safety of the Phoenix Ship.
In the afternoon, the Einsatzgruppen still sat on lounge chairs and enjoyed the sunbathing. Ouyang Lan couldn't hide the excitement in her heart, and once again enjoyed the spectacular and charming picture of the sperm whale. At this time, the sperm whales were swimming 200 meters away from the Phoenix Wheel, and their posture of doing "floating dance" was very beautiful, and Ouyang Lan's curiosity exploded again. She walked straight up to Yun Longfei, grabbed his arm shyly, and asked with a smile: "Brother Long, such a beautiful sea view, why don't you know how to appreciate it!" Come on, take a few beautiful photos with me! As he spoke, he made a jumping posture of a young bird, and instantly thundered the person in front of him!
Looking at Ouyang Lanjiao's smiling face, Yun Longfei was flattered and at a loss for a while. "Me? …… I'm sorry, but I really don't understand art......"
"It's okay, Brother Long, you can learn now! You engage in art, I engage you, this is called in-depth art. Come, I'll teach you by hand! Ouyang Lan couldn't help but say, grabbed Yun Longfei and walked to the side of the ship. He followed her in such a daze. Before he walked 10 steps away, Yun Longfei accidentally stepped on a banana peel, and because he was defenseless, he turned out to be top-heavy, and he stumbled and dragged Ouyang Lan down. Ouyang Lan squatted on the ground in pain and stomped her feet, so she simply pretended not to cry. Yun Longfei, who was harmed, hurriedly smiled, and Fei Jiuniu and Hu barely persuaded her to help her, so she had to obey her. The result is self-evident, Brother Long, who has always been stupid in front of girls, can only cooperate with her!
Such a farce drew laughter from onlookers. Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled and pointed at Yun Longfei's back, almost unable to close his mouth. "Look at this stupid boy, stupid, only foreign! What girl would like a little kid like him! ”
Under the careful guidance of Ouyang Lan, Yun Longfei's photography skills have improved greatly, and he is worthy of being a famous teacher and a high apprentice! His unusually focused work passion made her look like a fairy, and she was even more youthful and moving! Ouyang Lan was full of interest, pointing to the sperm whale to explain the details of the shooting to him, so he was not intoxicated! Yun Longfei was of course very pleased, but a pair of particularly sharp eyes suddenly found that the sperm whale that was doing the "floating dance" was a little abnormal. It turned out that he observed that the sperm whale not only stood upright and immovable, but also floated up and down unnaturally. Sometimes, the sperm whale instinctively spins freely throughout the body without any bending and shaking movements, and this mechanical floating and spinning gives a feeling of retardation. The most evil thing is that the spring pillars that erupt from the nostrils of the sperm whale are all pale red! How can there be such a "pink spring" in the world?
Yun Longfei immediately called Zhou Qiaoqiao over to explain the situation. Zhou Qiaoqiao stared at the sperm whale for a moment, and his first reaction was: The sperm whale is all dead! As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, shocking Yun Longfei and Ouyang Lan dumbfounded! Jin Kun, Ma Yu and Xia Xingyu were resting, but they inadvertently noticed that the three of them looked abnormal, and they all surrounded them.
"It's obviously a group of lively and frolicking sperm whales, how can it ...... How did it suddenly turn into a horde of corpses? Ouyang Lan's eyes widened, puzzled. The spring breeze just now is gone.
"When have you ever heard of sperm whales spewing red spring pillars? These guys may have been poisoned by predators. Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at the sperm whales from afar, and subconsciously calculated all kinds of possibilities. With such a powerful predator as the sperm whale, there are no natural predators in the sea. Even if the great white shark, the weasel shark, the orca, the manta ray, the king squid, and the king squid bump into them, they will only have to flee. All I can say is that they're in special trouble. ”
"No matter what trouble you encounter, let's catch two and test them first! Brother has prepared a high-quality whaling net, and he is guaranteed to be caught. Xia Xingyu patted her chest, and she had the ambition to get everything done.
"Brother Yu, don't blow it. Yesterday's sea snake almost killed us all, and I'm still scared! Ouyang Lan shrugged her shoulders and reacted coldly to the whaling net.
"How is the performance of your whaling net? Is there anything unique about it? "Yun Longfei seems to be very interested in the whaling net.
"It is launched by a mechanical device, intelligently captures prey, and hits within 50 meters. The mesh alloy is exceptionally hard and on par with diamond. The net capacity is up to 20,000 square meters, and it is not a problem to catch 10 giant whales. I used it in the South China Sea in February last year, and I caught 6 fin whales at once, and the effect should be very good. ”
"Okay, do as you say for now. Let's prepare the tools and test the results. You two just stay on the boat, be vigilant, and be ready to answer us. Let's go our separate ways! ”
Yunlong flew at everyone and made a "V" gesture and turned to act. Zhou Qiaoqiao patted him on the shoulder from behind, grabbed his arm, and didn't let him move. It was a clear expression of dissatisfaction and protest. "Wait a minute! I ask you, why do you always carry out your tasks? As an expert in marine life, they have the closest relationship with me! Don't let me go, it's clear to ignore the presence of experts! Do you know what is wrong? ”
Yun Longfei didn't look back, just smiled faintly and continued to act. "My mistake was to protect your personal safety absolutely. There are many more opportunities for you to show off your talents, so be aware of your special identity. ”
Zhou Qiaoqiao looked at Yun Longfei's back and scolded angrily: "Okay, you Yun Longfei, you talk to my sister like this, you despise my personality too coldly!" This girl will never forgive you! ”
Ma Yu hurriedly persuaded him, gently held his glasses with his hand, was inspired, and said bluntly: "Sister, Brother Long treats you like this, which shows that he really likes you." There is a poem that says it well: the peerless youth is delicate step by step, and the city is full of smoke and rain singing coquettishly. Who gets drunk first? In my dream, I embroidered the magpie bridge. This is so suitable for you, don't be kind enough to treat it as a donkey's liver and lungs! ”
"You hate it too, shut me up! Cut, who would like that silly boy! For the sake of your hard work, forget it this time, and don't violate the rules! "A little scuffle has subsided for the time being.
The four men towed the whaling net to the hovercraft, prepared military supplies, and sailed towards the sperm whale. After yesterday's sea snake monster attack, Ouyang Lan had palpitations, and when she saw Yun Longfei's hurried back, her heart of concern was surging, and she instinctively took a few steps forward.
As Zhou Qiaoqiao expected, these 5 sperm whales have all died, and they died unexpectedly. What is inexplicable is that sperm whale carcasses can move freely, and they always maintain a distance of 300 meters from the Phoenix Wheel, running in sync! Yun Longfei had already noticed this, and although the hovercraft quietly sailed towards the sperm whale, he didn't dare to go wildly, so he had to sneak in vigilance. During the stealth journey, Yun Longfei fixed the boxed torpedo in the best position on the hull, held a sniper rifle with magic acid bullets in his hand, and watched any fluctuations in the sea with his eyes.
Some distinguished guests saw Yun Longfei and others trawling to the hovercraft and sailing towards the sperm whale, and they were very incomprehensible and discussed. Some tourists even think they went whaling and want to complain to the International Whaling Association. Seeing that everyone flocked to Zhou Qiaoqiao, they questioned in a voice. When the public was angry, Zhou Qiaoqiao stepped forward and explained the reason confidently. After some explanation, everyone's confusion and protest gradually subsided, and turned to envy and gratitude. Zhou Qiaoqiao leaned against the iron pillar on the open-air deck, and let out a long breath, finally relieved for the time being. I couldn't help but curse in my heart: These brainless chameleon tourists are really good! One word, serve!
Captain Lin was taken aback when he received a call from Yun Longfei. "How is this possible? The dead sperm whale is sailing in sync with our passenger ship? You're not mistaken, right? ”
"Captain, I don't have time to explain too much about the possibilities right now. Trust me, do what I say, and everything can be turned around. I'm thinking about the life of the whole ship. ”
"Good. I see what you mean. Captain Lin instructed the helmsman to change course and sail due south.
"That kid is not a navigator and has no sailing experience, so why should you trust him?" The helmsman looked confused.
"This young man is not an ordinary person. Judging from the scene of yesterday's destruction of the sea snake, his ability is super outstanding, even far surpassing the best golden special police officer in the world. I have great faith in his abilities, and with him, no difficulties or dangers can stop us from moving forward. Rest assured to execute! ”
The Phoenix quickly turned its rudder and sailed due south. At this point, something strange happened! In just half a minute, the sperm whale carcasses turned around one after another and sailed in the same direction! Seeing this, Jin Kun, Ma Yu and Xia Xingyu were surprised, and their hands and feet trembled a little. Although Yun Longfei was frightened, after all, he was well prepared and did not panic. He kept an eye on the sperm whale's carcass, saw it very clearly, and immediately informed Captain Lin to speed up the voyage. Captain Lin followed the plan and increased the speed to 60 knots. Unexpectedly, the sperm whale carcass also swam away at the same speed! Not only do you keep up at the same speed, but you are in hot pursuit!
Xia Xingyu became even more nervous, and her forehead was almost sweating. "Brother Long, what the hell are those guys? Look...... It's weird and scary! We can't play with our lives, what should we do? ”
As he was talking, a 2-meter-long black eel jumped out of the sea on the right side of the hovercraft and pounced on the hovercraft. Yun Long Fei was quick, pulled the trigger, and hit it in the head with a shot, and the guy fell to the sea, struggling for a few seconds, and turned into a ball of mud and glue! At the same time, a special smell of the sea rushed to the face. The 4 people looked at each other, and the strange fish was beaten into a pile of meat glue by the magic acid bomb! Not only that, but there are also anomalies in the sea. Due to the fine weather today, the sea visibility is deep, up to more than 50 meters. The four people clearly saw countless clownfish and sardines turning their backs from the sperm whale carcass like shuttles, crossing the bottom of the hovercraft and swimming into the distance. The speed of its swim was enough to shock her. Yunlongfei expected, the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings!
When the hovercraft ran 100 meters away from the sperm whale carcass, Jin Kun followed Yun Longfei's prompts to keep the hovercraft synchronized with the sperm whale carcass, and Xia Xingyu and Ma Yu threw the whaling net into the sea.
"The effective range of the whaling net is within 50 meters, and it is still 50 meters away!" Xia Xingyu reminded Yun Longfei.
"The mysterious object is close in front of you, so I'm worried that something will change in it, so try it out in advance." Yun Longfei made a gesture of action. The two nodded their heads, threw out the whaling net cleanly, pressed the firing device, and the whaling net head arrow instantly shot into the sea, and the net claws spread out, waiting for the prey to come to the door.
At this time, a large area of squandering between the sperm whale carcass and the hovercraft danced, growing larger and larger, and the scale went straight to the football field. In the waters controlled by the whaling nets, the waves are getting bigger and stronger. Looking closely at the sea ahead, there was no sign of any living creatures. Yun Longfei raised his gun and aimed at the fiercest part of the wave, firing three shots in succession, but the wave continued unabated.
"It looks like there's a lot of guys in the net, and it's time to close the net." Xia Xingyu pulled up the net cable and pulled out a delicate Rambo knife.
Yun Longfei nodded. Three men work together to tow the whaling net. At the moment when it was just dragged, the whaling net suddenly rose out of the sea and bounced straight to a low altitude of more than 20 meters, and the sea beads catapulted everywhere along the net line, like a downpour of rain falling wildly, almost hitting the hovercraft. At the same time as scattering the sea pearls, a group of large and small snake eel-like strange fish curled up into an oval shape in the whaling net, each opening a funnel-shaped mouth, and easily bit off the net and jumped out. Some of the strange fish opened their ring-toothed bloody mouths and glared at the surrounding sea. When he spotted a nearby figure, he immediately pounced on the hovercraft ferociously and frantically!
The tuna hurriedly turned the steering wheel and drove due north. The group of strange fish followed closely behind. Yun Longfei raised his gun to shoot, and the gun hit the strange fish, but they were unharmed and still chased after them! Seeing that the bullet was ineffective, Yun Longfei casually threw away the sniper rifle and turned on the torpedo firing system. Four torpedoes flew at the school of strange fish, and in the moment of explosion, the 20-meter-high waves fluttered and swept into the sky. Dozens of strange fish were scattered in the waves, and they were soon thrown into the sea. The explosion was successful!
4 people breathed a sigh of relief. While relaxing, Yun Longfei couldn't help but glance at the explosion point, and found that the sea surface had returned to its former tranquility, but he couldn't find even a piece of minced meat! The four people panicked and looked into the water in unison, but there was not a single fish shadow!
"Dude, it's really evil. Not to mention biting my whaling net, I was torpedoed and blown away! I'm afraid those guys aren't dead at all! What kind of monsters are they? Xia Xingyu stared at the bitten whaling net, terrified.
"Looks like these are the same guys who bit your titanium wire mesh yesterday! It's horrible! The tuna analyzed the similar tooth marks and was secretly surprised.
Yun Longfei was constantly suspicious, secretly thinking, these guys may not be dead, they actually have the superpower to bite and crack diamonds, unlike normal creatures can do it, it's too abnormal! At the same time, a trace of suspicion flashed, since they have such a terrifying bite force, why don't they take the initiative to attack the cushion boat that is easier to bite? Could it be that there is another reason? He swept his gaze to the sperm whale carcass, and was surprised to find that the carcass was speeding up in the direction of the Phoenix Wheel, almost swimming out of the sight of the 4 people! I couldn't help but suddenly realize and exclaimed: "We have been tricked!" Those guys aren't dead, they must be chasing the Phoenix! Hurry back! ”
The four of them were shocked, hurriedly turned the bow of the ship, and accelerated towards the direction of the Phoenix ship! When the crisis comes, every second counts!
A thrilling whaling operation ended in failure. In the course of the operation, Yun Longfei and others discovered new mysterious sea creatures. Although there are no clues about them, Yun Longfei vaguely found the mystery in them, and they are most likely the direct cause of the mysterious death of the sperm whale. What kind of creatures are those snake eel-like roundmouth monsters? Why do you want to attack humans? The Einsatzgruppen will not be far from solving the mystery of the sperm whale nightmare......
