The legend of Tiga

Chapter 247 The 3000-meter-deep monster
Dolphin 202 is the latest deep-sea universal submarine developed by TPC after incorporating a private enterprise mainly engaged in deep-sea exploration, taking the Dragon Palace deep-sea submarine manufactured by this enterprise as a prototype, and adding TPC's world-leading high-tech.

Dolphin 202 uses a superconductive engine that can move at high speeds on the surface and deep sea, far surpassing any ship in the world. Its weapons are Monroe underwater missiles and D machine guns that can also be used in deep seas.

However, Dolphin 202 is still using old-style engines and energy sources at present. The reason is that the latest engine is still being tested, so it is still a semi-finished product.

"What? A semi-finished product?" Holding the helmet and walking in the new city leading to the corridor where Dolphin 202 is located, after listening to Horii's introduction, he was immediately dumbfounded. He was going to the deep sea, or the deep sea full of dangers. The only reliance was the deep sea. The submersible is still a semi-finished product.

"Why are you so loud?" Horii continued with a look of 'rare and strange', "Although it is only a semi-finished product, it is also the best deep-sea submersible in the world. A smart person like me wants to ride it. What's wrong with you?" Dare to ride?"

"What do you mean?" Xincheng immediately felt offended.

"It's nothing." Horii shut up before he finished speaking, because he saw Mayumi standing in front, patted Xincheng on the shoulder, strode forward, and when he passed Mayumi, he said: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring Xincheng back safely."

When Horii was far away, Xincheng said with a smile on his face: "Obviously I want to bring him back safely."

"Yeah!" Mayumi, who was haggard a lot, nodded, forced a smile, and said, "My brother is the best, and he will never let me down. Whenever I need it, he will appear by my side. Your sister is my greatest luck."

"Why are you talking about this?" Xincheng scratched his head in embarrassment, took two steps forward, hugged Mayumi with one hand, and said, "It's just a normal mission, there's nothing to worry about."

"I'm not worried, I just miss you." Mayumi hugged Xincheng tightly with both hands, and buried her head in his arms, just like when the sky was full of dark clouds that day, and as before, she hugged her only relative tightly.

After just hugging for a while, Mayumi let go, with a bigger smile on her face, and said: "Okay, hurry up, don't make Horii team members wait too long, I'm going to work too, bye."

After finishing speaking, Mayumi turned around and ran away in a hurry. Xincheng stood at the same place, looking at Mayumi going away, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart. When he walked to Horii who was waiting for him, he said: "Mayumi has always been worried about me, especially last time"

Horii nodded with deep understanding, and said: "Our job is to deal with monsters and cosmic people. How can our family members not be worried? Many times, even if it is one tenth of a second slower, we will be hit by monsters, and then the plane will crash. , In the short few seconds of falling to the ground, it was as difficult as waiting for the trial of fate."

"What you said seems to be more experienced than me. Dagu and I have crashed more times than you."

Horii rarely turned back, but said very seriously: "Because every time I watch you crash but can't do anything, it feels worse than falling myself."

Xincheng looked at Horii with some emotion, and Horii also looked at him, the two looked at each other, and then said in unison: "It's time for us to go."

In the F1 hangar, the maintenance team in charge of the Dolphin 202 is checking the status of the Dolphin 202 quickly and in detail, making sure that the maiden voyage can depart and return smoothly.

Xincheng and Horii sat in the narrow cockpit, and carried out the pre-sail inspection according to the operation manual. After everything was completed, Xinchenghui reported: "Dolphin 202, the inspection is completed and it is ready to go."

An alarm sounded immediately inside the F1 hangar, and a pleasant female voice broadcasted throughout the hangar: "Dolphin 202, ready to go, the transmission is activated. Dolphin 202 has arrived at the position, and the airtight hatch is closed."

In the sound of the broadcast, Dolphin 202 was towed by the tractor to a position separated from the outer ocean by a wall, the hatch at the rear was closed, and water began to be filled. After the water was full and Dolphin 202 was floating in the water, the front led to the ocean. The cabin door just opened.

"Dolphin 202, let's go!" With Xincheng's shout, Horii slowly pushed the engine control lever, so that the power of the engine gradually increased, slowly left the base, and began to accelerate after entering the vast ocean. Heading towards the sea more than 1000 kilometers away.

Although the Dolphin 202 is currently the fastest ship in the world, its speed is not as fast as that of an ordinary sports car, so it takes several hours to arrive at a distance of more than 1000 kilometers. At 202 meters, Xincheng and Horii turned on the automatic driving, and took turns going to the temporary room behind to rest.

But they are not alone. In the sky above, there is always a Feiyan No. 202 circling back and forth, not only for escort, but also responsible for transmitting the data of Dolphin 202. After all, this is the first voyage of Dolphin [-].

Lina sat in front, looking at the unchanging ocean outside in boredom, muttering: "I really hope that the ship can be built as soon as possible, so that Dolphin 202 can be directly sent to its destination."

Da Gu behind was stunned when he heard the words, and asked, "What ship?"

"Didn't you receive the simulated driving notice?"

"Before I had time to read the information sent to me, I went to deal with the Toshima-cho incident until now." Dagu couldn't help but sighed as he spoke. There are also garbage-covered mutant fish and unknown energy sources on the bottom of the sea.

From the harmful gases emitted by humans to the garbage discarded by humans, there is a sense of fate that it is time to pay for the sins humans have committed in the past.

"It's a real spaceship, but I don't know when it will start sailing. I really hope to drive that ship to space. It must be very beautiful." Lina thought with great anticipation. Her only pleasure before was driving a spaceship. Flying planes is now an added joy, but flying planes is her next favorite hobby after new fun.

Knowing that she will be able to drive the first real spaceship in human history to space in the future, she was so happy that she didn't sleep well for two days, and her dream was to dance with the stars.

Dagu also smirked, and after Lina finished speaking, he said, "I will do a good job as an escort."

"Hey, escort?" Lina couldn't help being stunned when she heard the words, she didn't realize it for a while, and even started to think, is there any content about escort in the training content?

Dagu said very self-aware: "If I say so, don't drive that boat, or I won't be able to afford the wages for the rest of my life."

Lina was silent for two seconds, and said with a teasing tone: "Dagu team member, why do you think that your lifetime salary can pay for Feiyan No. [-]?"

"." Dagu felt deeply offended, and even had a piercing feeling.

The two of them were passing the boring escort time by 'flirting' when they heard Xincheng's voice from the communication channel: "We are going to dive."

Dagu and Lina immediately stopped talking and joking, and became serious in a second, saying: "Received by machine No. [-]."

At a depth of 800 meters under the sea, Dolphin 202 began to descend, the numbers on the depth gauge continued to increase, and Xincheng and Horii's expressions became more and more serious. Several beams of light were several times brighter and more penetrating than Ryugu, Constantly scanning the surroundings, at the same time, the special cameras all over Dolphin 202 displayed the pictures captured on the screens in front of Xincheng and Horii for them to know the situation outside.

However, at such a depth, the light of the sun has already disappeared, and only the area illuminated by the light of Dolphin 202 can be seen. sound waves to avoid being hit by fish, because at a speed of tens of knots, if it hits a large fish in the deep sea, something big will happen.

The depth is gradually increasing, and the atmosphere in Dolphin 202, Feiyan [-], and the command room is becoming more and more dignified. All team members are looking at the pictures on the screen, except for Horii and Xincheng's voices reporting the readings of the instruments from time to time, there are no other voices. Can't hear any sound.

Not long after, they arrived at the location where the Dragon Palace deep-sea submarine found the garbage patch. The more penetrating beam of light brought a wider field of vision, and also made people see more garbage, monsters with different degrees of mutation. Fish crawled around in the rubbish.

Some of them still had plastic bags and other garbage hanging on their bodies, as if they were hanging on a speed parachute, swimming with difficulty until the plastic bags were hung on large garbage, and they could no longer swim freely, and could only circle back and forth in a small area. I got rid of the plastic bag, unfortunately, I was entangled tightly and couldn't move.
There was no time for Horii and Xincheng to digest and express their emotions. They had to move forward to investigate the unknown energy source, so the streamlined Dolphin 202 continued to move forward, pushing away the dense garbage, alarming a large number of strange fish to come out of the garbage and interact with each other. collided, and even hit the shell of the Dolphin 202, with a 'boom!Boom! 'The sound made people jump with fear.

Soon, Dolphin 202 jumped over the coordinates of the last arrival of the Ryugu deep-sea submarine, and continued to move forward. The cry-like sound described by the TPC marine survey team also reached the ears of the two, and then transmitted it by radio. Going to Feiyan [-] and the command room, the Victory Team heard an unknown sound that was indeed similar to crying.

"What's that sound?" Xincheng listened to the sound and looked at the garbage that almost filled his vision outside. He felt a little irritable in his heart, but he was suppressed by him, trying to keep his brain thinking calmly.

Horii was also listening, but while listening, he was also judging the location, saying: "It's right in front of us, and it's coming from the location of an unknown energy source. It seems that two puzzles can be solved at once."

Xincheng casually said, "It can't be a monster, can it?"

Horii's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that the voice sounded more and more like a monster, but he still denied this terrible possibility, saying: "Where are there so many monsters?"

Xincheng was just talking casually, but now that he thinks about it, he thinks it is very possible. After all, who can make such a loud sound in such a deep seabed, his right hand can't help tapping a few times on the keyboard, calling out the weapon operating system, Checking the Monroe underwater missile and the D cannon, he said: "Since the appearance of Gorzan, nothing is impossible in this world."

"Too!"

The two continued to move forward, and the people in the command room also heard the conversation between Xincheng and Horii. Zongfang stood up straight, his brows were almost wrinkled, and he was thinking, if there were monsters in such a deep sea, what would happen? What should the winning team do?
The missiles and machine guns carried on the Dolphin 202 are used to clear rock formations and obstacles, not to deal with monsters, so if they do encounter monsters, I'm afraid.
Thinking of this, Zong Fang immediately said: "Captain, I think we should suspend this mission and wait for the deep-sea unmanned submarine from the TPC oceanographic survey team to carry out the survey."

Jujian Huiwen immediately understood that Zongfang was worried about the monster. If encountering a monster in such a deep seabed, Dolphin 202 would have no good way to deal with it.

Before she could think about it, she heard Horii's surprised voice from the loudspeaker: "What is this?"

Xincheng, who was checking the weapon system, hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"The energy source has started to move, and the direction is coming towards us."

"What did you say?" Xincheng was shocked, hurriedly put down the weapon system, and turned his eyes back to the screen, only to see that the red dot representing an unknown energy source left its original position and started to come towards them, and the speed faster and faster.

Horii came up with an incredible guess: "Is this thing alive?"

"A monster?" Xincheng wanted to slap himself very much. It was really a crow's mouth. It's nothing to say about a monster. He quickly grabbed the joystick and shouted: "Horii, let's back up quickly."

Regardless of whether the opponent is a monster or not, they cannot collide with it. Such strong radiation, once in close contact with Dolphin 202, is enough to cause huge damage to the exposed engine. If it loses power at the bottom of the sea at 3000 meters, then Dolphin 202 will become a monster. An iron coffin, unable to move at all, can only wait for rescue or death.

But in such a deep seabed, it is not a simple matter to change the direction of the deep-sea submarine. Compared with the faster and faster energy source, Dolphin 202 is simply moving at the speed of a turtle.

"Horii, hurry up."

"I think so too." Horii's brow was dripping with sweat, and he desperately pulled the joystick, changing the posture of Dolphin 202, trying to avoid the unknown energy source that was about to hit him.

Everyone in the command room listened to the sound from the loudspeaker, and their hearts suddenly became aroused. Even Ju Jianhui couldn't sit still, and stood up involuntarily. They could only watch helplessly as the red dot got closer and closer to Dolphin 202. approached, then collided and the picture on the big screen disappeared instantly.

Ye Rui said this sentence with difficulty: "Dolphin 202, lost contact."
