Chapter 84 The Monster Attacks

 "Woo~"

At around 23:00 in the night, the Yuanlang suddenly sounded a rapid siren. All officers and soldiers on the ship immediately got into position. Yan Andong came to the command room with a serious expression.

"What's going on?"

"Report Captain, the radar has detected a large unknown object approaching, 15 kilometers away from us!" An officer and soldier immediately answered.

"What is it specifically? Can you tell?" Yan Andong remained calm and unmoved.

Another officer and soldier stood up with some embarrassment and replied: "...According to the images, the shape of the object is constantly changing and its movement is very flexible. It is most likely...a living thing!"
p>

Creature? Yan Andong was startled. What creature is big enough to trigger the Yuanlang's alarm?

"Have you sent the message and called?" Yan Andong looked serious.

"I called, but the other party didn't answer!" the officer and soldier replied.

Yan Andong nodded and directly ordered: "Launch the anti-submarine torpedo and destroy it!"

The officers and soldiers present were stunned and started fighting immediately?

Although they felt it was inappropriate, the officers and soldiers immediately carried out Yan Andong's order.

"Whoops!"

An anti-submarine torpedo rushed into the water and headed towards the unknown object at twice the speed of sound.

"Boom!"

A huge spherical water splash rose from the sea, and the roar resounded through the sky. The Yuanlang, which was more than ten kilometers away, could clearly hear the explosion.

"Check the target situation!" Yan Andong ordered again.

After some operations, an officer and soldier replied loudly: "The anti-submarine torpedo is ineffective, the target is accelerating and approaching us!"

"Why is it invalid? It didn't hit or cause no damage!"

"Yes...no harm caused!"

Yan Andong's face turned completely serious, "Launch the remaining 11 anti-submarine torpedoes at the same time!"

"Got it!" the officers and soldiers replied immediately.

Boom boom boom!

After eleven consecutive explosions, the officers and soldiers started detection again.

"Yeah...it still doesn't work!" The officers and soldiers were slightly panicked, unable to believe that something could carry 12 anti-submarine torpedoes without being hurt.

The officers and soldiers responsible for monitoring the target shouted at this time: "The target speed has increased significantly, now reaching 800 kilometers per hour! It is still rising, 900, 1000, 1200... the speed of sound! The target exceeds the speed of sound!"

Yan Andong stepped in front of the screen in two steps, looking at the red 1300km/h, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Breaking the speed of sound in the water? How is it possible? You must know that the speed of their latest anti-submarine torpedo is only 200 kilometers per hour, and that is achieved with a streamlined shape and small size.

According to the radar, the target size is more than 80 meters long and its shape is similar to a lobster. How can something of this size and shape break the speed of sound underwater?

No matter how unbelievable it is, the situation is like this. At the speed of the target, it will hit the Yuanlang in less than 40 seconds. Judging from the fact that 12 torpedoes cannot cause damage to it, as long as it collides, it must be the Yuanlang.

Was torn in two instantly!

Bang!

With a fist on the console, Yan Andong gritted his teeth and asked: "Do we have any weapons that can carry out underwater attacks? Or it may not be a weapon, at least we must slow down the target's speed!"

"Report to the captain, we no longer have weapons that can carry out underwater attacks, but the target is constantly rising. When it floats to a depth of about 30 meters underwater, we can launch anti-ship missiles at it and use the shock wave generated by the explosion to reduce it.

Speed!" In less than two seconds, the technicians gave the plan.

Their anti-ship missiles are weapons used to attack surface ships. After being launched, they usually fly at subsonic speeds. After approaching the target, they can break through the target's protective net at 4 times the speed of sound and attack.

This weapon is incredibly powerful, but it cannot attack underwater targets because it is too fast and will explode once it touches the water.

But these are all controllable. In the control room, automatic detonation can be completely canceled and manual detonation can be performed. The speed limit can also be lifted.

The only thing that needs attention is that if the missile enters the water too deep at four times the speed of sound, the missile body will be unable to withstand the huge impact and be damaged, and then it will not be able to detonate.

However, detonating on the water surface cannot generate a strong enough shock wave underwater. Therefore, everything depends on the skill of the operator. The missile must be detonated before it is destroyed after entering the water.

The target speed is one times the speed of sound, and the missile speed is four times the speed of sound. A slight difference will render it completely ineffective, leaving only a few tenths of a second for the operator to react.

Yan Andong also knew the risks involved, but he believed in his comrades and the skills they had honed over the past ten years!

The plan was quickly approved, the anti-ship missile launch unit began to warm up, and the missile could be fired at any time.

Yuanlang is a modified destroyer. Compared with a normal destroyer, the vertical launch unit is more than half less. There are only 2 groups of 16 anti-ship missiles, and the rest are anti-aircraft missiles.

It is estimated that it will take 20 seconds for the target to rise to the designated depth. In order not to give the target time to accelerate again, Yan Andong decided to launch a missile 8 seconds before contact to block it.

The missile reaches the designated position in two seconds and is released at close range to the target that just arrived, and then detonates immediately. Even if it cannot damage the target, it can use the shock wave to disrupt the water flow and reduce the target's speed.

In this way, missiles are fired from far to near, four missiles each time, four times in total, blocking the target at a distance of 500-1000 meters from the Yuanlang!

The plan that came out in a few seconds is so sophisticated, which shows how elite the Hanxia Navy is. However, it is so difficult to just stop the target in the first round of offensive. How to fight next?

In the silence, an observer began to count: "The target has risen to the designated depth, and the missile launch countdown has begun: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! Launch!"

Hoo ho ho ho!

Four consecutive missiles took off and headed towards the target location. Two seconds later, the missile plunged into the water and landed just in front of the target. It was a fish-like monster.

Huh? The monster's eyes rolled, as if he was confused about what suddenly appeared in front of him.

Bang——!

There was an almost unanimous explosion, four missiles exploded at the same time, and the violent fire instantly illuminated the monster's entire body.

The body is like a shark, with dozens of slender legs growing on the abdomen, and an obvious exoskeleton on the body. The head and tail are like lobsters, and the two large turtles are ferocious and terrifying, almost the size of a house.

With a body of more than 80 meters long, pincers of more than 30 meters long, and tentacles on the top of its head that are hundreds of meters long, it is a huge monster that could fill an episode of Ultraman!

The explosion itself did not harm the monster, but the fire frightened it. The violent water fluctuations caused by the explosion greatly affected its acceleration with the help of water, and its speed was suddenly reduced by more than half.

Its body still moved forward nearly a kilometer under the influence of inertia. When he reacted and continued to accelerate, four more missiles detonated in front of it.

After repeating it four times, the monster finally stopped 700 meters away from the Yuanlang. Compared with the 211-meter-long Yuanlang, this distance is already very close.

Perhaps it was the missile interference that annoyed mortals. The monster popped out of the water, exposed most of its body in the air, and let out a shocking roar: "Ah——————!"

The sharp sound made Yan Andong and the officers and soldiers dizzy, and the porthole glass suddenly exploded with fine cracks and then shattered.

Yan Andong and others forcibly stabilized their bodies and looked to the side of the sea, taking in a panoramic view of the monster.

Weird, monster?!

Although they had long known through radar that it might be a biological creature, the inability of torpedoes to break through the defense later overturned their previous guesses. This kind of defense was definitely not something biological creatures could achieve, and it must be a new type of submarine from a certain country.

The subsequent underwater supersonic movement made them overturn their speculation again. Human technology has not yet reached this level. Perhaps it is the relics of an unknown ancient civilization?

But now that they actually saw the target and heard the target's roar, they finally confirmed the target's identity.

It’s a monster!

Yan Andong was the first to come to his senses and roared an order: "Fire all bombs!"

The officers and soldiers also came to their senses, suppressed the fear in their hearts, entered the command without saying a word, all vertical launch units were activated, and hundreds of anti-aircraft missiles roared towards the same target!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of missiles streaking through the air continued to sound, violent flames continued to appear on the monster's body, and the deafening roar was endless. It took half a minute for the roar to stop.

Was it successful?

There was silence in the control room, and no one dared to breathe for fear of affecting the final result.

However, after the clouds cleared and the rain cleared, the scene exposed on the sea made everyone feel chilly.

Unscathed!

Alas, I didn’t expect that the things that were originally going to be used in the ruins would be used here... Yan Andong sighed, with determination on his face.

"Yuanlang listens to the order, unlocks the highest authority, password YSOKJH02185, activates the vibrating warhead, execute immediately!"

The firm voice woke up the stunned officers and soldiers, but made them stunned again.

Are you talking to them? I haven’t rehearsed this order. How should I execute it?

Just when the officers and soldiers were at a loss, a cold electronic female voice sounded: "The highest authority has been unlocked, the order has been executed, and the vibrating warhead has been activated and can be launched at any time."

In an instant, all the screens in the control room were controlled, and the deck suddenly cracked open to reveal the inside of the ship. The vertical generating units were all moved away, revealing a special black ship body hidden deeper.

This, what is going on! The officers and soldiers were shocked and looked at Yan Andong who gave the order, hoping to get a reasonable explanation.

Looking at his subordinates who were hesitant to speak, Yan Andong ignored them and ordered in a deep voice: "Lock the monster on the right and fire the vibrating bomb!"

Not only did the officers and soldiers of the Yuanlang take control, but the engine roared suddenly. The bow of the ship turned around and aimed at the monster within 3 seconds. The black missile soared into the sky at ten times the speed of sound, and then fell towards the monster at the same speed.

Monster.

Only then did Yan Andong begin to explain: "The Yuanlang is essentially an intelligent warship. It is the latest type of warship that Han Xia reproduced based on the intelligent system unearthed from ancient civilization relics. The armed cargo ship on the surface is just a cover-up for convenience.

It is to hide the real Yuanlang inside. This is a special battleship dedicated to performing secret missions. I am the only one who knows about it and can only activate and control it by myself. If it had not been for this critical moment, I would not have activated this ship.

Battleship. But after returning this time, all of us may not be able to go on missions again."

Everyone was silent. This latest strategic equipment was seen by them and should be controlled.

"Captain, it doesn't matter whether we go on a mission or not, but can the vibration missile really kill that monster?" A technician asked worriedly.

"Haha!" Yan Andong chuckled softly, "The vibrating warhead is a special warhead that forcibly triggers target destruction through resonance. In the experiment, such a warhead can completely destroy a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier and break it into pieces. It is a mere monster.

So what if it resists anti-ship missiles, it’s dead!”
