MTL - Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine (Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start)-Chapter 163 Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers
"Guard 1, target the top left at eleven o'clock, fire!"
"Second Guard, at two o'clock on the lower right, there are a large number of unknown targets approaching, take precautions in advance!"
"The transport boat is in the center, pay attention to the enemy coming straight ahead!"
"Kill brothers, don't be stingy with ammunition, hit me hard!"
…
Hysterical roars of filial piety sounded one after another in the command room of the bridge of the Sea Locust.
Meng Lei, who was wearing a neat captain's uniform, stood in front of the sonar display.
At this moment, his complexion was slightly grim, his eyes fixed on the three-dimensional projection in front of him, and then according to the constantly changing abnormal point information in his sight, he quickly and accurately issued one order after another.
And with the issuance of his combat order, in the boundless deep ocean, guns and guns rang out in unison.
The scarlet lasers flashed frequently, as if the deadly dawn was tearing apart the void.
One after another, the electromagnetic artillery shells wrapped in the supercavitation, with the volatilization of the tracer agent, dragged a line of dazzling tangible ballistics, like meteors that cut through the dark curtain of the universe, lasing vertically and horizontally in the dark.
Six submarines in the voyage fleet, a total of thirty main guns fired in salvo!
The dazzling ballistic tracer, and the dense bubbles that rose up, instantly filled the dark sea area like fireworks.
The firepower of nearly a hundred cannonballs poured out every second, combined with the scattering attack of the laser cannon, the crazy impact hit the alien sea monsters densely gathered around, and immediately set off a large swell of blood.
Within sight, in the dark sea water, a large number of sea monster corpses were suspended out of thin air.
The blood and flesh were mixed together and scattered freely under the agitation of the ocean currents, overwhelming the sky, and the scene was extremely tragic!
This cold and icy ocean, which has been silent for many years, finally ushered in a rare boiling on this day.
Now, it is the third day that the voyage fleet has left the waters near the g43 beacon station.
Such battle scenes have been seen frequently in the past two days.
As far as normal conditions are concerned, the voyage fleet is always traveling in a safe channel, and theoretically, it is almost impossible to encounter a large-scale sea monster attack.
The deep-sea fleet composed of five F-class exploration boats and an E-class transport boat, although not as good as the professional combat troops compiled by the alliance, is still a force that cannot be ignored.
Ordinary small sea monsters don't dare to provoke them easily. Whoever dares to come forward is simply idle.
Perhaps, however, as Roger judged.
The speed of this space tidal eruption far exceeded expectations, faster than ever before.
Just the day after Meng Lei and his party resolved the thalamic crisis and set sail again, the fleet encountered a large number of uninvited guests.
In the safe passage that was originally calm as usual, many sea monster groups emerged inexplicably.
These sea monsters include the more common grey algae creepers, as well as the Mire Swiftmensaurus.
There are also many crest thorns and deep-sea worms who are used to living alone, and they have also changed their previous habits, and they have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
No one knows the source of these sea monsters. In a smooth rock tunnel, there are no traces of cave structures around. They seem to appear out of thin air, entrenched in the center of the channel, blocking the road ahead.
Moreover, these sea monsters are also very aggressive.
Whenever the existence of the fleet is discovered, it will immediately launch an attack and gather in groups.
In the past two days, the voyage fleet has experienced dozens of battles, big and small.
On average every two or three hours, a group of sea monsters will be besieged and killed.
Even when sleeping at night, the sonar remains silent, and trouble may come to you at any time.
After careful calculation, up to now, the alien sea monsters that have been buried under the roar of the voyage fleet can basically be said to be thousands!
This shows how hard this voyage was.
You must know that the fleet has only sailed less than 1,000 kilometers from the city of Xier, and has not even reached the sea area where the hydrothermal waste is located, and is still in the cargo channel of the first half of the 66671 waterway.
In this relatively safe area, the team has already encountered such a large number of battles.
One can imagine how difficult the road ahead will be.
Fortunately, the golden finger, which has been rotten for a long time, has finally played a vital role recently.
When ordinary people encounter a large number of different types of sea monsters, they can be alerted by abnormal points on the sonar display, although they can distinguish the size and number of sea monsters.
However, it is impossible to judge the types of monsters attacking from each direction, so it is impossible to timely and effectively respond to the characteristics and attack methods of monsters.
For example, gray algae creepers are small in size, and usually like a dozen or twenty to get together and launch a swarm attack.
At this time, the rate of fire of the bullet and the spread of the ballistic trajectory have become the key factors for effective killing.
Using a burst-firing cannon, a scatter-type weapon with an extremely fast rate of fire, can cause greater casualties to the monster group at a long distance than the electromagnetic gun for the grey algae crawler.
In addition, due to the larger individual target, the stratum corneum on the body surface also has strong resistance to small-caliber bullets.
Therefore, the effect of using the electromagnetic gun is naturally better when facing the Swamp Xunmeng Dragon Group.
For each different sea monster, choose targeted weapons to fight, and the final effect is definitely different.
Ordinary people have no choice at all on this issue. When the sea monsters come, they can only stew in a pot, and all kinds of weapons shoot indiscriminately.
When the sea monster rushed into the range of the searchlight, and then adjusted again, it was already a lost opportunity.
But for Meng Lei, this problem did not exist at all.
He glanced at the central control display, and all the sea monsters within a two-kilometer radius were instantly exposed.
Which kind of monsters are the most numerous in one direction, he can see at a glance, the door is very clear.
Then, according to the types of sea monsters, a targeted attack command is issued to each submarine, so that each artillery can have the greatest effect.
To outsiders, his command may appear very mediocre and unremarkable.
But in fact, when the battle broke out, a careful person could find that Meng Lei's instructions were extremely accurate in terms of pertinence!
Thanks to Meng Lei's precise and efficient command, the voyage fleet has never encountered a crisis after dozens of battles during the two-day voyage.
Often those sea monsters are immediately met with headaches as soon as they enter the range of ship-borne weapons.
It was too late to launch the offensive, and the momentum of the offensive was disintegrated.
Even if there are sporadic fish that slip through the net and get close to the surface of the submarine, the electromagnetic coil, which has been built with nearly 100,000 refits, will become the last line of defense for every ship, and the crisis will be resolved invisible.
Along the way, despite the difficulties and obstacles, it can be regarded as a near miss.
The only downside is that the high volume of battles also means excessive ammunition consumption.
In just two or three days, the fleet's ammunition reserves dropped by a full quarter!
This is still counting the nearly 100,000 marks of ammunition that Lanney assisted without compensation. If the ammunition carried by Meng Lei is considered, maybe all the bullets will have been emptied.
Judging from the current momentum, the remaining three-quarters of the ammunition reserve may not be able to last until the team reaches the Barona Colony.
The hydrothermal wasteland is famous for its large number of sea monsters, and now it has caught up with the outbreak of space tides, and the frequency and ferocity of the following battles may be unprecedented!
Such a situation was something Meng Lei could not have expected before going to sea this time.
However, everything has two sides.
Although the consumption of ammunition has increased, after such a long battle, the proficiency of each serving security officer in artillery control has risen sharply geometrically.
As the saying goes, the so-called sharpshooters are fed slowly with one shot and one shot.
Although the Blue Star players accompanying the team are not yet at the level of sharpshooters.
But after a lot of battles, the hit rate of everyone in battle has been greatly improved.
From the side, it also means a reduction in ammunition loss in disguise.
In addition, Meng Lei is not particularly worried about ammunition consumption.
With the continuous deepening, perhaps because there are few ships passing by, there are gradually more exposed ores along the way.
Those metal ores rooted in the seabed and on the surface of rock formations can effectively provide raw materials for the manufacture of ammunition.
In order to avoid running out of ammunition, unable to respond in times of crisis.
These days, in the process of moving forward, whenever he finds the existence of minerals, Meng Lei will stop the fleet and send people out of the cabin to harvest it.
Over time, although the ammunition became less and less, the raw materials were more and more collected.
On the whole, if the raw materials collected so far are all made into ammunition, it is even more than the total amount of ammunition carried by the fleet when it sails!
Of course, this is only for ordinary standard ammunition.
Those rare ammunitions such as depletion bombs are indeed less than one round, and the production materials are difficult to collect.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Meng Lei should not use special ammunition as much as possible. Good steel must be used on the blade. He still understands this principle.
"Report! The first guard battle is over, and the monsters in the direction of eleven o'clock have been annihilated!"
"Report! The battle of Guard II is over, and the target at two o'clock has been annihilated!"
"Report! The battle of the three guards is over..."
…
Finally, the sound of gunfire in the darkness outside the cabin gradually ceased.
The dense abnormal points on the sonar display disappeared one after another with the reports of Lin Ming and others.
Instead, there are sea monster corpses floating all over the sky in the endless dark sea water outside the porthole.
Let's go and try it. 】
There are at least two or three hundred alien sea monsters who died in this battle.
The filthy blood wrapped a large number of corpses and severed limbs, as if clouds of blood were floating in the air, filling the entire sea area nearby.
Looking around, under the snow-white searchlight, there is a dazzling scarlet!
"The fighters get out of the cabin and clean the battlefield with the fastest speed!"
A low voice came from Meng Lei's mouth. As soon as the battle was over, he immediately ordered everyone to start cleaning.
The so-called cleaning the battlefield, to put it bluntly, is actually dragging the body of the sea monster back to the cabin, and then deconstructing it with the deconstructor in the engineering cabin.
These sea monsters themselves are actually not of much value. Under normal circumstances, the price of each corpse is about 100 marks.
Although it is said that all the sea monster corpses in the vicinity add up, it can be sold for twenty or thirty thousand at least.
But Meng Lei is now sitting on a fortune of tens of millions, how can he still see such a small amount of money?
The point is, the warehouses of the expedition fleet are now full of ammunition, minerals and groceries, and there are simply not so many places to pick up this garbage.
The reason why he asked everyone to clean the battlefield was actually what Meng Lei valued was the mysterious genetic material.
Through the decomposition of the material deconstructor in the engineering cabin, unknown genetic material can be decomposed from these sea monsters. This genetic material is currently not of great use to Meng Lei.
But for the alliance, there is still a lot of research value.
Going back to the Barona Colony and selling it to Roger's introduction to the connector is also a considerable amount of wealth, at least it is more valuable than the monster itself.
And Meng Lei also intends to start preparations from now on, intentionally collecting genetic material with perfect genes for future transformation.
This kind of thing does not happen overnight. Perfect genes are hard to come by, and they can only be piled up by probability.
In addition, the unknown genetic material itself is not so easy to obtain.
Only by decomposing the corpses of 100 monsters on average can you get a piece of genetic material. The probability is simply ridiculously low.
After so many battles in the past two days, the fleet killed thousands of monsters, and it was enough to decompose less than 30 unknown genetic materials.
And the one with the highest genetic integrity is only 30%!
It can be seen that if you want to obtain a genetic material with a genetic integrity of more than 90%, the probability is similar to winning the lottery.
Only after long-term accumulation can we see a little hope.
Following Meng Lei's order, the fleet members got busy and started to clear the battlefield.
Taking advantage of this brief break, Meng Lei had nothing to do, made a cup of coffee and sat in the command room, opened the tablet and started to read the news.
Browsing daily current affairs has now become his daily pastime.
With the outbreak of a large-scale smuggling incident, many Blue Star players poured into the depths of the waterway, and all kinds of messy news appeared endlessly.
Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, this sentence is indeed suitable for Blue Star players.
The inherent safety awareness of the waterway of the Tia people for a hundred years has been broken, and the so-called safe waterway has almost lost its meaning.
Blue Star players who are new to the deep, no matter where you are safe or dangerous, as long as you can walk through the road, regardless of whether you are in the unknown sea or not, you will dig in with your head sullen.
There are not a few people who are keen to explore. Losing the constraints of the alliance, those adventure lovers are completely unblocked, and it is out of control.
Even in the unknown area where the alliance's signal coverage is lost, Blue Star players can often be seen.
The various incidents and bizarre incidents caused by this have also become hot topics that major media have been covering in recent days.
