North America.

The East Coast of America.

Jacksonville City on the Florida-Georgia border.

In summer, the warm sea breeze blows through this coastal city, bringing warm North Atlantic water vapor to the area.

Nearby Kings Bay is the famous U.S. military's domestic submarine base, which is also known as the Navy's most leisurely recuperation harbor.

At this time, in the harbor dedicated to submarines in the bay, four nuclear submarines, the USS Florida, the USS Alaska, the USS Maryland, and the USS Wyoming, were moored.

A large number of sailors used it as a vacation place.

The maintenance crews who were sent to maintain the submarine were overhauling the Florida at this time.

Engineer, Mark, who was inspecting the silocating tiles on the surface of the submarine, was checking it a little perfunctorily, when suddenly he was tapped on the shoulder, and Mark, who was startled, looked behind him angrily.

The tall boss was looking at him with an unhappy face, and then threatened: "Mark, don't you want to do it anymore?" If something goes wrong with the silencing tile, you're going to court martial. ”

"Got it......," Mark replied very perfunctorily.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

What is it?

Torpedo?

"Mark! Are you listening? The boss was even angrier.

But Mark trembled his hands and pointed to the sea behind his boss: "Torpedo!" There are torpedoes! ”

"What? It's not funny at all...... "The boss was confused.

But Mark, who had a frightened expression, instantly pulled his boss to lie on the deck.

Rumble! Not far away, near the waterline on the side of the Alaska, a big hole was blown out in an instant, and the fierce explosion made the water column rise into the sky.

More than 200 meters away, Mark and his boss were suddenly drenched in seawater.

"What's going on? Enemy attack? The boss got up and looked in horror at the Alaska, which had already tilted a little.

Right now.

The sirens of the base hissed violently.

The sailors in the harbor were like headless flies, confused by the sudden explosions and sirens.

In fact, it is not surprising that the sailors at the Kings Bay base are so lax and helpless, mainly because this is the mainland of America, and this base has not been attacked since its inception.

In addition, in the past thirty years, America has become accustomed to being domineering all over the world, and I didn't expect anyone to dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head.

Mark hurried off the deck of the submarine.

And other colleagues also ran out of the submarine one after another.

At this moment, several engineers in charge of overhauling the nuclear reactor, carrying radiation detectors, emitted a dense buzzer.

"Oh buy karma!"

"What's going on?"

"Could it be that the reactor of the USS Alaska was hit!"

Mark shook his head: "No way, I saw that the torpedo did not hit the position of the reactor." ”

"Don't say it, get out of here!"

The group of maintenance engineers who reacted didn't care about anything else, and ran wildly towards the underground bunkers inside the base.

Fortunately, several engineers were more conscientious, and before escaping, they reported to the officer in charge of maintenance work that the radiation at the explosion site was seriously exceeded, and asked the other party to quickly prepare radiation prevention measures.

After more than half an hour of chaos, the base finally gradually returned to normal order.

But at this time, Major General Carnegie, who was in charge of the base, had an expression on his face as if he had eaten a few kilograms of flies.

"Serious excesses of nuclear radiation? Dozens of sailors showed signs of radiation sickness? Bastard! Could it be that the reactor was destroyed? ”

However, Lieutenant Colonel Kevin, the head of the maintenance work, and Lieutenant Colonel Austin, the head of the base security work, shook their heads in unison.

"The reactor was not destroyed? So where does the radiation come from? Do you want to tell me that the USS Alaska was hit by a nuclear bomb? Major General Carnegie asked angrily.

Lieutenant Colonel Kevin replied with a solemn face: "Yes, Your Excellency Major General, we have been attacked by a nuclear bomb!" It was a dirty bomb, to be exact, and the explosion did not produce a large number of fission reactions, but instead contaminated the submarines and harbors of the base with radioactive dust. ”

"......" Major General Carnegie was not good, and after relieving for a while, he scolded directly: "Fake! Who did this to you? ”

However, it is useless for them to scold.

……

The U.S. military, and even the Council of the Hilltop City behind it, all received this urgent briefing at the same time.

In the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia.

Tucked away in the interior of a large, low-key estate is one of the four rotating points of the Council of the City on the Hill.

This quarter has just been the turn of this point as a temporary office for the Board.

The formation of the four-city rotation system is mainly due to the fact that the core members of the Council of the City on the Hill belong to each consortium family, and if it is fixed in one place, the families and consortiums in other regions will have opinions.

Therefore, a small remote city was selected for each quarter of the south, east and west.

At the same time, it also represents each quarter, and the families and consortia in the region will become the rotating directors of the quarter.

The Alabachia Mountains are in the eastern part of North America, and the directors who represent the rotating position at this time are the people on the side of the Wall Street financial consortium.

For example, Thomas Morgan, the "old friend" that Li Qingye misses, is here at this time.

"Kings Bay base raided by a dirty bomb?" Thomas's expression was very calm, but there was a lot of anger in his eyes: "This is the safety you keep saying?" ”

Whether it was the Black Ship (CIA), the FBI, or the U.S. generals, they all lowered their heads at this time, not daring to look directly at the sharp gaze of Thomas and others.

Another chubby old man from the Mediterranean put down the cigar in his hand: "Whew...... Have you found out who it is? ”

"Yes...... It's a clover oak! Jack replied with some nervousness.

"Clover oak? Is that the organization that has been making a lot of trouble in Latin America lately? There was a hint of cruelty and suspicion in Thomas's eyes.

A fine layer of sweat broke out on Jack's forehead: "Yes, they marked the three-leaf oak pattern on the torpedo shell, but it is also possible that other forces deliberately disguised it." ”

Thomas then gave the order: "Keep investigating!" I don't care if it's made of clover oak or not, but the source of the raw materials for the dirty bomb must be found out. ”

The other rotating directors also nodded.

In their opinion, the clover oak in Latin America does not have the strength to refine uranium-235, even if it is uranium-235 with a concentration of only 0.5, it is not something that this kind of underground rat can make.

And this kind of thing, there is a high probability that other powers, or regional tyrants, are doing things behind their backs.

The location also takes place in the North Atlantic, and it is likely to be the forces around the North Atlantic.

In this way, the scope of those behind the scenes is further narrowed.

Even an old agent like Jack, who has been engaged in intelligence all his life, did not suspect going to East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia at this time.

After all, the distance between the two places is tens of thousands of kilometers, and there is no way for conventional submarines to dive for so long, and only a few forces have nuclear submarines.

According to their intelligence, the nuclear submarines of those forces in the southeast of Asia have alibi.

As for other options, such as civilian shipping and then secretly dropping them off near Kings Bay, that's also possible.

But in this way, as long as you investigate the ship records in recent days, you can basically determine which ships have only passed in the surrounding waters.

Apparently they didn't realize that the torpedo had been submerged by themselves, which involved the current technical blind spots.

As a result, the black ship from the very beginning, investigated in the wrong direction.

Such a serious incident happened on the mainland, and the black ship devoted almost most of its energy to the investigation of this matter.

On the Southeast Asian side, Joshua is disguised as a business inspector for a multinational trading company and travels to the Borneo region of Malaysia.
