Chapter 217 Deep Sea Operation After the modification was completed, the deep-sea submarine was sent to the water world from the outpost. The lifting platform built by Yang Li and the Qinglong team worked at this time, and there was no scene where the submarine fell apart from a height of tens of meters.
Five or six people in the Qinglong Team can drive submarines, and the equipment sent was a simple version that only two people could control. Therefore, the Qinglong Team quickly mastered the operation method of this new scientific research submarine.
Yang Li had already figured out the depth of the nearby sea with his team members before, and knew which direction to go next.
"How many meters can the boat sent be dived to?"
Yang Li was sitting in the cabin. He inspected the 12 torpedoes carried by the submarine. The news he got from the outpost was that all the twelve torpedoes were the latest Torpedo 10, and their single shot power was sufficient. Destroy a [-]-ton aircraft carrier in an instant!
Such a powerful weapon was co-operated by the Weapons Research and Development Institute and the Submarine Research and Development Department to install it on this scientific research submarine. At least in terms of weapon power, they did not have to worry.
"This thing should be the youth version of the Jiaolong. It was previously used for scientific research. The ultimate depth is about 3000 meters. Normally, it can maintain a depth of 2000 meters for various tasks."
The pilot who was selected by lot seemed quite excited. This was the first time for him to drive such a high-tech scientific research submarine. He had heard before that the association's Jiaolong submarine could go deep into the sea to 8000 meters. It really shocked him. A wave.
The military submarines that were opened at the time were usually 200-300 meters. Even for nuclear submarines, their maximum diving depth was only about 800 meters. Some of them were around [-] meters, and those were very few.
Perhaps many people have learned more or less about what is in the deep sea through various science programs, but few people dare to dive to such depths to explore it themselves.
What's more, the place where the Qinglong Team, Yang Li and others are going now is the depths of the ocean on another planet!
Everyone did a simple mobilization before setting off, and Yang Li even directly asked all members to leave a suicide note again. This part made everyone present a little nervous.
"Comrades!"
Yang Li stood on the submarine and spoke to the members of the Qinglong Team who were selected by lot in front of him to enter the submarine to carry out this "deep sea operation", "The time has come for the association to test us!"
"Everyone must be very aware of the situation we are facing now."
"We are carrying out deep-sea operations this time not only for the exploration orders and tasks of the association and the base, but also for ourselves!"
Yang Li directly rolled down the sleeves on his arms, and bright green blisters appeared on them. However, this strange scene did not surprise the team members in front of him at all. They just looked at Yang Li in silence.
"We have no other choice. If we want to survive, we may have to choose the only hope."
It’s not that the two bases and associations didn’t take any action; on the contrary, they made a lot of efforts.
The association sent a large amount of medicines here, various types and even some experimental things for them to try. The outpost even sent medicines made of new materials here in batches. deliver.
But the green blisters on Yang Li and the Qinglong Team not only showed no sign of subside, but even started to get serious. Yang Li had frequent fevers in the past few days, was blind or had hallucinations from time to time, tinnitus and coughing...
Those in the Qinglong team with mild symptoms can still maintain normal work, while those with severe symptoms can barely survive by relying on antiviral drugs. The so-called drawing of lots, Yang Li actually performed some operations in it, and several infected people with severe symptoms were All have been selected.
In this extremely dangerous deep-sea operation, Yang Li was obviously prepared to sacrifice.
After giving another pre-departure report to the northern base, Yang Li directed the members of the Qinglong Team to enter the submarine with a wave of his hand.
"Operation Deep Sea, begin!"
There was a roar on the hatch cover of the deep-sea submarine, and it quickly disappeared from the sight of everyone on the temporary offshore platform.
There were still five people on the temporary offshore platform. They kept saluting in the direction of the submarine, and then slowly put it down after a while.
"Can it be successful?"
One of the soldiers of the Qinglong Squadron said worriedly: "Those monsters in the deep sea... we don't know what kind of existence they are at all. The previous detectors showed that they are extremely large. If they encounter our submarine, , I’m afraid there is no chance of winning at all.”
"How could Captain Yang not know this? It can even be said that everyone in the submarine knows it!"
The other soldier shook his head, "But if it were you and me, wouldn't we still carry out the task even if we knew it was an extremely dangerous task?"
"Haha, this is our final fate! Instead of staying here and waiting to die, we might as well fight! Maybe we can catch the virus and return in the hope that we can cure it!"
"I hope our equipment can last up to 1500 meters!"
"The equipment is fine, it just depends on their luck..."
"If something goes wrong with Captain Yang and the others, I will apply to the outpost for another submarine. The five of us will try again no matter what!"
"Hahaha, just what I want!"
In the base of the Northern Territory, Chen Lin was sitting in the back seat, listening to the words of the members of the Qinglong Team, but his eyes were always on the screen on the other side - that was Yang Li and others driving the Jiaolong. A shot of a submarine heading into the deep sea.
Everyone present was somewhat affected by the emotion. Several female researchers couldn't help but wipe the corners of their eyes. They all knew very well that the words they just said were parting words.
The dozen or so members of the Qinglong team in the water world have all been infected with an unknown virus at this time, and they have all suffered from various complications. If there are no specific drugs or vaccines, it is basically certain that they will all end up with nothing but Able to die miserably in another world.
Even in order to prevent these unknown viruses from spreading to other worlds and the earth, the association issued a death order prohibiting these people from returning to other worlds before they recovered.
Chen Lin was looking at the big screen, but Xiao Wu, a security guard not far away, quickly approached and said from close range to Chen Lin's ear: "Mr. Chen, there is a phone at the outpost."
Chen Lin glanced at the guard and nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
He had no intention of answering the phone and just stared at the picture on the big screen.
The Jiaolong submarine had dived to a depth of more than 200 meters within a few minutes. The warm and bright sea area that originally seemed to have disappeared early was replaced by light black sea water.
As the commander, Yang Li ordered the submarine's lighting system to be turned , a scene appeared on the big screen that shocked everyone present.
Countless huge clusters of mushrooms with structures like towering giant trees suddenly appeared on the screen. These mushrooms on the seabed were extremely huge. The largest ones even existed like submarines, emitting a strange purple light on the seabed.
"Look at the lower right corner."
An eagle-eyed researcher noticed the difference on the screen and pointed it out: "It looks like a building!"
Someone immediately passed the news to Yang Li and others, and the submarine immediately dived a few meters again, getting closer to the building.
At this time, everyone discovered that this place was already in ruins.
"The materials seem to be of the same type as the buildings previously found on the island."
Yang Li zoomed in on the screen, and after confirming, communicated directly with the northern base: "We are going to send out team members to explore inside... There seems to be no danger here at the moment."
The personnel at the northern base had a quick exchange, and then suggested that Yang Li not take risks. The area here was already on the edge of the deep sea, and no one of them could guarantee safety. It would be safer to stay in the submarine.
Yang Li also briefly confirmed the opinions of everyone in the submarine, and finally chose the minority to obey the majority and gave up this risky move.
The limit of the diving suits they carry is almost here. Unless there is something to drag them down, they alone will not be able to do it.
"Operation sonar radar at full power, drive carefully."
Yang Li was sitting in the submarine. He actually hoped that he could get telepathy again at this time. The mysterious monster shadow had affected him many times. Everyone in the Qinglong team had also encountered it more or less. Can be proven to be true.
Xuying told Yang Li and the others that if they go to the deep sea in this direction, it will ultimately save everyone...
Although I don’t know what kind of existence the phantom is, it seems that this is indeed the only hope at present.
"Captain, something is approaching us!"
Just a few seconds after Yang Li fell into thinking, the driver in front of him shouted loudly.
Everyone in the observation room at the northern base was immediately startled. Chen Lin straightened his body and looked at the actions of the Qinglong team on the screen.
Yang Li was also instantly startled. He moved directly to the sonar radar, stared at the extremely fast-moving target on the radar, and immediately said without hesitation: "Lock the target and launch the torpedo!"
The pilot immediately flipped the torpedo's control lever with a click, but the target in the radar moved extremely fast and could not be locked on, which resulted in the delay in launching the torpedo.
Everyone in the observation room stared at the screen with their eyes wide open. They were full of curiosity and surprise at this time. They had seen very few deep-sea creatures in the opposite world, and judging from the radar data, this fast-moving creature was a big guy! Yang Li didn't say any nonsense at all. He immediately stood up and called the two people, quickly put on the diving suit, took the weapon from the weapon storage slot on the side, and immediately stepped out of the submarine.
At this time, the depth of the submarine was 225 meters, which was within the maximum depth that the diving suit could withstand, so it was enough to support them in leaving the cabin.
The scientific research submarine Jiaolong allows underwater robots to exit the cabin. Yang Li and others directly borrowed this hatch to exit the submarine.
The northern base was unable to obtain the first-person perspective of Yang Li and others immediately, and could only rely on the camera of the Jiaolong submarine to take pictures.
When the camera turned to this side, they only saw a dazzling bright light flashing out instantly.
"Come on, bastard!!"
Yang Li was holding a huge electromagnetic weapon in his hands at this time, and the two members of the Qinglong Team beside him each held a special weapon, aiming vigilantly in one direction.
The first shot missed, Yang Li immediately adjusted the muzzle of the weapon in his hand, put it directly on his arm, aimed at the dark area in the distance, and then shouted: "Seeking death!"
A group of people at the northern base did not see the enemy and thought that Yang Li was hallucinating again. Just as they were about to connect to the communication, a rapid shout came from the loudspeaker.
"Captain Yang, it is only 200 meters away from us, on your right!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge sound like an ancient tyrannosaur came out instantly! Everyone present heard this voice very clearly, and their faces became extremely ugly.
There is indeed some kind of indescribable huge marine creature in this sea area. Judging from the sound alone, this thing is definitely not small!
Yang Li roared angrily, and immediately he and the two soldiers behind him fired suddenly in the direction to the right! The weapons in the hands of the three of them are not conventional rifles, but the latest model of firearms that have been produced from the weapons research and development institute in the past few days-electromagnetic rifles! This was the compensation Chen Lin received for being imprisoned in that ruins. After the design blueprint of the electromagnetic weapon was delivered to the Weapons Research Institute, it took only a week to completely copy it.
The first batch of people to get it were Yang Li and his members of the Blue Dragon Team who were unable to escape from the water world.
The Weapons Research Institute sent a total of three experimental weapons, the largest of which was actually a modified version of the electromagnetic weapon.
Lin Yun used the blueprints and electromagnetic coils to directly change the design, turning it into an unprecedented "plasma weapon."
The power of this firearm under water is almost undiminished, so it is regarded by Yang Li as a big killer weapon to deal with this monster in the ocean.
The roar came from far away, and along with the terrifying roar, a huge deep-sea Leviathan suddenly sprang out from the black water in the distance!
Running through the lens of the Jiaolong, they suddenly saw an extremely long deep-sea monster suddenly appear. This monster had pale skin, dark red body stripes, and a head with extremely long fangs and sharp points. He swung his horn and collided directly with the Jiaolong's hull at extremely fast speeds.
"Fuck, this thing's target is our ship!"
At this moment, Yang Li seemed to be waking up from a dream. He quickly called the two soldiers behind him to change direction. The weapons in their hands immediately fired at the huge sea beast that was about to attack without any intention of stopping! "Kill it!"
Along with Yang Li's roar, the plasma weapon in his hand exploded and shot out a ball of blue energy, which was completely unaffected by the resistance of the sea water and rushed towards the ocean giant in a daze. On the beast!
