The three H-18 anti-aircraft missiles of the "Nanchuan" have already taken off into the sky. The missiles dragged their long tail flames and illuminated the dark sea. The three silver-white missiles were like sharp blades piercing the night sky. They The targets were two incoming Tomahawk cruise missiles and an AGM-129 missile.
"Reporting to Captain, two Tomahawk cruise missiles are 70 nautical miles away from our ship, cruising speed is Mach 1.72, bearing is 239, H-18 air defense missiles have locked onto the incoming missiles! The target was shot down in 2 minutes and 50 seconds."
Captain Zhou Hengxiang stared closely at the six rapidly passing light spots on the screen: "It seems that Country M has determined that the M warships including the Lukes were sunk by us. They committed a crime. Blunder!"
"Captain, we have tried our best. The purpose of our cruise here is to warn ships approaching dangerous waters, but they insist on getting close to the object." Staff Officer Zhang Yuegang said.
"Yes, that alien object has cost them a heavy price!" Captain Zhou Hengxiang said with a helpless expression, "In the past three days, there have been 5 merchant ships and 16 fishing boats within a radius of 50 nautical miles from that object. Inside, suffered the same fate as the Lukes."
"It seems war is inevitable."
Captain Zhou Hengxiang glanced at the sinking "Lux" outside the porthole, his eyes full of regret and helplessness.
"Are you still going to rescue, Captain?"
"Save!" After Zhou Hengxiang finished speaking, his eyes returned to the radar screen, "Continue to remain on alert. This war does not belong to humans, but to the ultimate contest between the earth and that underwater monster."
"The anti-aircraft missile hit the target in 1 minute and 50 seconds!" the radar soldier reported.
Mbaton suddenly woke up and found that he was lying underwater. The intense hypoxia caused him to stand up as if he was electrocuted. He breathed in big gulps of air...
A moment later, wherever his eyes could see, he found that water had entered the island, and the water had already reached his knees. He quickly rushed to the encrypted communication device. Fortunately, the device was placed on the table and was not swallowed by the sea water.
When he was about to contact the "Booker" nuclear-powered aircraft carrier formation, he suddenly heard a strong wind with a unique steel sound behind his head. He instinctively turned his head and saw a sharp fire-fighting weapon. The ax struck at the top of his head. He quickly dodged and the ax head was deeply embedded in the iron table.
The man who slashed him was Lieutenant Jenkins.
Jenkins stared with blood-red eyes and roared: "The Z country formation has attacked all our ships, why do you want to terminate the attack!? Are you crazy?"
As he spoke, he pulled out the ax with all his strength and stood up high...
Before it was too late, Mbaton quickly picked up a steel pipe and stabbed it hard, hitting Jenkins in the abdomen, and gurgling blood quickly flowed out along the steel pipe...
"You are crazy, child!" Mbaton said coldly.
Jenkins fell limply like a puppet that had lost its support. The steel pipe was pulled by Mbaton from the body of the first mate, Major Frank Johnson.
"Soldiers during peacetime are happy, but you don't want peace." Mbaton looked at the blood spurting out of the steel pipe, regret and helplessness hanging on his face, "Go to sleep, kid!"
After he finished speaking, he grabbed the encrypted communication device: "Booker, this is Lieutenant Colonel George Mbaton, the captain of the Lukes. Please terminate the attack immediately. Please terminate the attack immediately!"
"Lieutenant Colonel Mbaton, I am Lieutenant General Justin Lance. There are only the last 50 seconds before the missile hits the formation of country Z. Please explain the reason for terminating the mission!"
"It's all a miscarriage of justice, a miscarriage of justice!"
10 seconds of silence.
"Everything is a misjudgment! It was the mysterious object under the sea that attacked us!"
5 seconds of silence.
Mbaton almost stared at the communication device with bloody eyes, but there was still silence on the other end.
"If you don't terminate the mission, you will be a war criminal! You will go to a military court!" Mbaton roared like a furious lion and pounded the table vigorously.
"Lieutenant Colonel Mbaton, the attack mission has been terminated. The missile will start the self-destruction program in 5 seconds!"
Mbaton was relieved. He stuck his head out and looked at the starry sky...
Suddenly, three fireballs exploded almost simultaneously in the night sky, lighting up the bright starry sky like blooming red flowers, and soon merged into the galaxy like stars.
Captain Zhou Hengxiang's sharp eyes on the "Nanchuan" were still fixed on the screen.
"Reporting to Captain, M Army has initiated the self-destruction procedure, and three H-18 anti-aircraft missiles have lost their targets." The radar soldier reported urgently.
The "Yonghai" nuclear-powered aircraft carrier formation also sent an urgent message at almost the same moment: Country M's missiles have self-destructed, and its two waves of attack formations have also returned. Our missiles have started the self-destruction process, and the counterattack formation will also Returning one after another.
In addition, the USS Booker nuclear-powered aircraft carrier formation of the country of M has sent us a request to rescue the officers and soldiers of the M army task force that fell into the water. According to the position of your ship, please help the survivors while maintaining a safe distance from the unknown alien body. The M-country tugboat "Melfin" made every effort to rescue the country's officers and soldiers.
"The Nanchuan will resolutely complete its mission!" Captain Zhou Hengxiang said firmly.
The "Nanchuan" began to throw life-saving devices into the sea on a large scale, and various searchlights danced back and forth on the sea. They were like lights of life, guiding the fallen officers and soldiers to the other shore of escape.
The "Nanchuan" even used all the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft. They hung inflatable boats and life jackets under the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and flew above the heads of the M country soldiers for fixed-point delivery. Soon, waves of M country soldiers Officers and soldiers were rescued one after another onto the ship.
At this moment, the "Lukes" has begun its final death sinking. The hull has been raised high, like a ruined giant standing upside down on the sea surface, and two-thirds of its hull has been swallowed by the sea water.
The gushing water column stirred up by the sinking formed a large bottomless terrifying whirlpool. The vortex stirred the deep and white seawater at high speed, making a low and dull roar...
This is the final prelude to the death of the "Lux".
The seawater began to devour the ship island for the final time, and Mbaton was completely submerged below his chest.
Lieutenant Colonel Mbaton, who witnessed this great rescue, finally showed a smile, and a sense of relief stretched between his brows.
"Well done kids, you'll be safe soon."
After he finished speaking, he straightened his military uniform, then faced straight in the direction of the "Nanchuan", slowly raised his right hand, and gave a standard military salute.
He didn't put his arms down until the "Lukes" sank into the sea 30 seconds later.
The moment the "Lukes" sank, the huge suction force in the cabin stirred up a water column of tens of meters high on the sea surface. As the water column disappeared, it was completely engulfed by the sea water.
Captain Zhou Hengxiang looked at the "Lukes" almost at the moment it sank. He looked at everything in front of him quietly, and then saluted with a military salute.
As the "Lukes" sank, the dark blue light layer surrounding and above it slowly disappeared. At this moment, all the M country soldiers stared at the swallowed ship, and they quietly looking at...
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and the sea seemed to have returned to silence.
Suddenly, the sea area where the unknown object was located began to stir again, and its surroundings slowly emitted fluorescent green light. This was an irregular green curtain 400 meters wide and 700 meters long.
The fluorescent green curtain began to slowly rise, and when it reached a height of about 50 meters above the sea, it quickly began to rotate. The huge rotation force stirred the air and sea water, forming a vortex composed of huge waves. The strong rotation force caused the instantaneous wind force around it to be as high as Level 10.
Everyone, including the officers and soldiers of Country M and the rescue workers, stared at what was happening in front of them with wide eyes. Everything happened so suddenly that they had no time to escape.
Before Captain Zhou Hengxiang could order an emergency escape, the giant wind suddenly shrank sharply towards the center of the fluorescent green curtain, as if being absorbed by a strong suction force. Soon, a huge singularity was formed at the center.
This singularity is a dazzling fluorescent green light spot. The brightness of the light spot illuminates an area of 50 kilometers in radius.
Just listen to three "swish, swish" sounds, and three long snake-like emerald green light pillars shot out from the singularity, with a diameter of 10 meters long. The three "long snakes" were flying rapidly against the sea at a height of about 15 meters. The ground flew towards the "Nanchuan", "Melfin" and the people struggling and rescuing on the sea...
In just the blink of an eye, the "Long Snake" hit three targets at the same time, and the targets that were hit were tightly wrapped in the emerald green light...
In less than 50 seconds, the three targets slowly transformed from a clear entity into a frame, then into an outline, until they completely disappeared.
The noisy sound on the sea suddenly stopped like a power-off speaker, and the sea returned to the background color that only waves should have.
The "Nanchuan" and "Melfin" also disappeared like lights out.
Also missing were the struggling people on the sea and rescue workers.
All this seemed to have never happened, disappearing without leaving a trace, not even a human hair.
Human beings began to be afraid of the super energy possessed by that alien body. This was a weapon that humans could not understand.
At this point, a 100 nautical mile radius centered on the mysterious irregular body has been classified as a no-navigation zone, and all military and civilian ships are prohibited from approaching this sea area.
