Chapter 253 Danger Eruption
Silence lingered for a long time in the tilting flagship until the underwater probe of Submarine No. 1 discovered a vast space deep within the cave before the fiber optic cables ran out.
"Starting to rise."
Using the sensor array onboard the underwater probe, Lorraine saw the entire space—a pointed mushroom cap.
Seeing that the hole did not look like it had been formed naturally, Lorraine decisively gave the order to surface.
Propelled by the propeller, the underwater probe slowly rose to the surface until it emerged from the water.
"Cavity?"
But the moment the camera was turned on, Lorraine saw that the cave walls were covered with white, egg-shaped objects of similar size.
As the camera moved, the entire underwater space came into view before Lorraine's eyes.
The underwater space is about 80 meters in diameter and about 40 meters in height. The bottom of the cave below the inlet is covered with a thick layer of moss, which is suspected to be food for these creatures.
After providing Cleveland with the limited information, Cleveland did not find a matching organism or larva in its database.
"Tsk."
After confirming that these were not native species of Earth, Lorraine ordered the small submarine into the cave and used high-energy explosives and a nuclear fusion warhead to destroy the entire space.
Then, the screen on Lorraine's left changed, with the footage transmitted from Submarine No. 2 taking up the entire screen.
In front of it was a flat cave with a huge cross-sectional area.
The sensor array switched to cluster mode and began directional scanning of the cave's orientation.
However, before the sensor array could obtain the corresponding information, the optical probe detected that the "white sand" on the surrounding ground began to jump up and down, and then the surrounding pistol shrimp population also gathered over.
"Platinum, prepare."
Platinum parted the transparent protective cover on the control panel that illuminated the red button, and gently placed his left index finger on the red button.
"The safety mechanism has been unlocked; we are ready to launch at any time."
"Xu Ling, determine the best time to evacuate yourself."
"receive."
Xu Ling gripped the throttle with his left hand, pressed the button, and retracted the cockpit to the lower space. Then he closed his eyes, immersing his consciousness in the ship itself, constantly monitoring the surrounding situation.
As the "white sand" throbbed more and more violently, a pale yellow figure emerged from the depths of the cave.
Then, the submarine's propeller reversed, dragging the small unmanned submarine rapidly backward.
Immediately afterwards, the pale yellow figure paused briefly, then left a trail of afterimages in the sea before rushing out of the cave.
"put!"
As Lorraine roared, Platinum pressed the button heavily with his index finger.
"laugh--"
The launch unit hatch opens, the rocket engine starts, and a large amount of high-pressure water vapor is generated by the reaction of metal and water. The water vapor is then ejected from the tail of the torpedo, providing the torpedo with tremendous thrust.
A portion of the high-pressure steam is transported to the torpedo's head through internal pipes and enters the cavitation generator, causing it to generate supercavitation sufficient to envelop the entire hypersonic torpedo.
Within seconds, the torpedo reached a speed of over 200 knots and hurtled toward the trench where the No. 2 submarine was located.
At the same time, the power armor's anti-load function is activated, and a large amount of air enters the built-in airbags, compressing the body and preventing blood from rushing into the brain at high speed.
"boom--"
Xu Ling opened his eyes, slammed his left hand on the accelerator and locked it in the power shift position, then gripped the trembling control lever tightly with both hands.
The scorching plasma gas burned the seawater, producing a large amount of high-temperature, high-pressure steam, leaving a series of bubbles in the water.
The magnetohydrodynamic thrusters entered an overload state, frantically spewing water towards the rear of the flagship, propelling it toward the sea.
Immediately afterwards, the driver's cab was bathed in red light, and a frantic and urgent alarm sounded.
[Warning! Warning! The stern of the ship is being burned.]
[Warning! Warning! Too much resistance! Too much resistance!]
[WARNING! WARNING! 8G overload!]
[WARNING! WARNING! 9.2G overload!]
[WARNING! WARNING! 11.1G overload!]
[WARNING! WARNING! 13.2G overload!]
"Smack."
Lorraine swung his hand with difficulty, hitting the overload alarm, but the piercing alarm only paused for half a second before sounding even more urgently.
[WARNING! WARNING! Large volume of high-speed, high-temperature water flow detected, quantity: 235]
[WARNING! Large volume of high-speed, high-temperature water flow detected, quantity: 489]
[Update, quantity: 941... Update, quantity: 1680... Update, quantity: 4223... Update, quantity: 9673... Update, quantity: 23426...]
[WARNING! Mirror armor units 0038 and 0024 in Zone B are experiencing localized overheating, with an overheating rate of 17.2%]
[WARNING! Mirror armor pieces No. 0078, 0234, and 1134 in Zone C are partially overheated, with an overheating rate of 23.2%]
[WARNING! Multiple areas of mirrored armor in Zone D are overheating, with an overheating rate of 47.2%]
[WARNING! 135 mirror armor pieces in Sector B are overheating and about to be damaged!]
[WARNING! 359 mirror armor pieces in Sector C are overheating and about to be damaged!]
[WARNING! 742 mirror armor pieces in Sector D have overheated and been damaged!]
[Warning! The damage rate of the ship's mirror armor has reached 26.2%, and the electromagnetic armor has begun to heat up.]
"boom!"
Before the damage rate of the front ship's mirror armor reached 40%, the flagship, having completed its acceleration, finally broke through the sea surface and soared into the sky with a huge splash of water.
[WARNING! Large number of life signals detected, quantity: 12513; Update: 28970...]
[WARNING! Large number of life signals detected, quantity: 12513; Update: 28970...]
After the resistance disappeared, the flagship's acceleration increased rapidly, and the overload experienced by Lorraine and others became increasingly greater.
Faced with a high-speed, high-temperature, and high-pressure water jet reaching an altitude of over 2000 meters, Platinum and Lorraine simultaneously activated the brainwave control system, using their thoughts to control the flagship's weapons to retaliate against the attack below.
The ammunition type has been changed to intelligent programmable explosives, with an explosion altitude of -0.1 meters to -0.5 meters.
Seeing the red dot on the sea, Lorraine and Platinum controlled the 380mm naval gun and the 130mm rapid-fire naval gun and began to attack the sea with madness.
Faced with such a dense and ever-increasing number of enemy units, Lorraine and Platinum decisively increased their weapon's rate of fire to the maximum and turned off the overload warning.
At its highest rate of fire, these shells falling from the sky plunged into the sea at a speed of 1500 meters per second, followed by bursts of water of different sizes exploding on the surface of the sea.
As Lorraine and Platinum controlled their weapons to strike the sea, a blinding red warning appeared before the three of them.
[WARNING! A nuclear fusion explosion has been detected on the seabed. The temperature is higher than expected, and a large amount of hot steam is gushing out!]
[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! Large-scale high temperatures have been detected in the trench! Large amounts of hot steam are rapidly escaping, and water churning has been detected!]
The warning was followed by a few seconds of silence, but the cooling system at the core of the ship began to operate at full power.
[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! This water surge has covered an area of 5.074 square kilometers and is expected to disrupt the climate of the surrounding region!]
[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! A tsunami wave up to 1.2 meters high is expected in deep waters!]
The warning then fell silent again, but this time for a longer period, and the cooling system at the core of the ship was also overloaded.
This time, Lorraine sent evacuation notices to all friendly units in the surrounding area before the alarms even sounded.
