The icy sea water ripples.

The lights of the five submarines were wide open and surrounded in a semicircle, forming a beautiful arc.

While dispelling the darkness, it also brought an inexplicable warmth to this lifeless dark void.

And under the dim light, at the end of the line of sight,

You can vaguely see an illusory behemoth, quietly traversing the deepest edge of the dark edge in the refraction of water waves distorted by the light.

And at a distance of more than 100 meters directly below it, it is probably close to the seabed.

There was another hazy shadow of a building, angular and angular in the darkness.

If you look closely, you can vaguely find a slender, creeping shadow that binds the two firmly together.

Somewhere, there seems to be a mysterious force pulling the distance between the two.

The process is slow, but real and solid.

By comparing the horizontal position of the submarine and the behemoth, it can be clearly seen that the latter is gradually sinking.

Without external intervention, I'm afraid it won't take another half an hour,

The huge cigar-shaped shadow will completely sink to the bottom of the sea, collide with the hazy building intimately, and merge into one in the darkness.

"Captain, you have about half an hour left. After clearing the thalamic parasites in the ghost ship, cut off the connection of the gun of flesh and blood as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once hit, the shell structure of the beacon station is likely to be directly damaged!

At that time, it will be troublesome to try to repair it! "

In the earphones, Hans's reminder sound kept echoing, intertwined in the hearts of every fighter in the communication channel.

"receive!

We'll speed things up and have it all in half an hour! "

Meng Lei's steady voice sounded immediately.

Wrapped in the icy sea water, he held the underwater propeller and quickly approached the shadow of the huge submarine in the distance, while not forgetting to command the overall situation.

"Simon, you also speed up your side, and under the premise of ensuring your own safety, try to use the shortest time to destroy the core organ of the thalamus!"

"Yes!"

Simon's voice was full of energy, and his tone was firm.

"In addition, others are also ready for battle, killing the cell bodies in the beacon station in time to cover Simon's actions!"

"receive!"

Lin Ming and Zhang Chao also complied with their promises, and the voices of orders continued to come from the earphones.

Although everyone acted separately, they did not gather together.

However, at this distance, the signal of the short-distance communication headset is still within the effective range and will not be affected in any way, which facilitates communication and exchanges between people.

With the issuance of the order and the start of Meng Lei and others' actions, the various ministries began to operate nervously, and all were ready for battle.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The combat team led by Meng Lei gradually approached the huge ghost ship under everyone's attention.

It has to be said that the overall scale of E-class submarines is indeed more visually impactful than F-class submarines.

The 100-meter-long metal hull is not so shocking from a distance.

But as it got closer, a huge sense of oppression came upon him.

Even people who don't have a phobia of giants will instantly feel their own insignificance and be shocked by this huge metal creation under human technology!

However, Meng Lei and his party were not in the mood to express shock and sigh at this moment.

Faced with the intense tension and anxiety brought about by the dark surroundings, after approaching the ghost ship, everyone immediately dispersed and began to look for the ship's airlock entrance.

In fact, if it wasn't for worrying about the thalamic cells in the beacon station, they would divert the attack after spotting the combat team, causing Simon's fishing plan to fail.

In fact, they could cut the gun of flesh and blood that penetrated the bottom of the submarine directly from the outside, and use a plasma cutter to melt the tendon structure of the thalamic hyphae.

However, the reality is unlikely to be smooth sailing.

In order to ensure the full implementation of the combat plan, they can only enter the interior of the submarine, on the one hand, destroy the lymphatic system that may have completed evolution.

On the other hand, cut the connection of the Flesh Gun from the root of the end.

Soon, under the command of Meng Lei, the entrance to the upper airlock on the top of the submarine was easily found by everyone.

With the experience of the last underwater approach to combat, this kind of thing is not difficult for Meng Lei.

"Everyone's attention, do not open the diving suit mask after boarding the ship, so as not to be infected by the fungal spores in the ship! Heard no!"

Outside the airlock door,

Meng Lei pressed the open button of the hatch with one hand, and cautiously gave a final warning to the entourage.

Amidst the neat response, he took a deep breath and exerted his palm slightly.

The red fluorescent cabin door button sank immediately, a deep green light flashed, and the cabin door opened instantly.

Meng Lei took the lead and got into it, followed by five other fighters.

Due to the limited volume of the airlock, it is already the limit for six people to enter at the same time, and all the participating personnel can only enter in batches.

When the constant pressure water level in the airlock room has completely receded, the internal hatch is opened.

A flickering light illuminated the road ahead, and at the same time, it also illuminated the surrounding environment.

For a moment, including Meng Lei, all the first batch of fighters who boarded the ship couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"God, what is this? It's so beautiful!"

"Like gold dust, how they float in the air is amazing!"

…

I saw the lights flickering on and off.

In the air in the cabin, a large number of unknown substances that flow slowly like dust and sand are quietly floating, as if a galaxy is scattered, with a faint light.

These unknown substances are ubiquitous in every corner of the cabin, flickering on and off as the lights flicker.

At first glance, it is hazy and dreamy.

Everyone was amazed, as if one step from reality into the fairy tale world.

Meng Lei also held his breath involuntarily. While he was amazed, he was not confused by this splendid performance.

He knows very well,

Eight of these strange substances in the air are the culprits that caused this E-class submarine to turn into a ghost ship!

Under this dreamy appearance, there is definitely a deadly murderous intention hidden!

If nothing else, these things should be fungal spores released into the air by the thalamus.

Although it is different from Meng Lei's previous cognition, the spores that exist like fog are more mysterious and dreamy.

But often the more beautiful and tempting things are, the more deadly they are!

It seems to be to confirm his conjecture, when his eyes are focused on a certain sparkling spot in the air.

The powerful golden finger really showed a large number of dark golden text prompts.

(Thalamus spore: A fungal spore that can survive in the air for a long time. Once parasitized in the organism, it will use the host's body as nourishment to complete proliferation and evolution in a short time, thereby changing the host's gene structure. It assimilates as part of the ontology.

In addition, the assimilated targets will become extremely aggressive, and they will use all means to prey on all creatures within their perception range to maintain their reproduction and development.

By normal means, it is difficult to completely remove the thalamic spores.

The only way is to disinfect with high temperature. In a high temperature environment above 60 degrees, the thalamic spores will immediately lose their activity and die completely!

If you are accidentally parasitized, try raising your body temperature to over 60 degrees for a period of time.

Maybe there is still a chance.

Even if the temperature does not reach 60 degrees, the high temperature environment can reduce the activity of thalamic spores, allowing you to live longer.

But the premise is that your body organs are strong enough...)

Meng Lei was a little stunned when he saw the large-scale introduction.

Meng Lei knew that the various thalamic organs parasitized on submarines needed to be destroyed with an open flame or high temperature.

Before he set off, Hansted gave him an explanation.

As a result, the combat team carried a large number of plasma cutting tools, as well as phlogiston grenades that produced continuous fire damage.

However, what he never expected was that the objects that had been parasitized could also use this method to continue their lives?

It can be said that it is a life extension, what is the difference between this method and seeking death?

Not to mention 60 degrees, under normal circumstances, once the human body temperature exceeds 42 degrees, the protein in the body will undergo corresponding denaturation, which can easily lead to death.

Maintain it at 60 degrees for a period of time, before the thalamic spores in the body are boiled to death, the person will be cold first.

"This golden finger is getting more and more humorous..."

Meng Lei complained silently, his eyes moved, and he ignored the black humor of Goldfinger for the time being.

His main goal at the moment is to explore this ghost ship as soon as possible and remove all hidden dangers on board.

And, everything had to be done within half an hour.

It's time crunch.

"Everyone spreads out and acts in groups in twos and twos, and conducts a blanket search of the entire ship, and immediately destroys any suspicious targets found!"

"Yes!"

The voice of the crowd came from the earphones.

At the same time, the crowd behind Meng Lei suddenly dispersed, and they no longer paid attention to the thalamic spores scattered in the sky, and hurried away in an orderly manner along the passage.

With the surging flow of people, the surrounding air is also driven.

Against the backdrop of the thalamic spores, the invisible air stirred up waves of ripples, turning into indescribable shapes, and wafting recklessly in the darkness.

Carrying a shotgun in his hand, Meng Lei walked under the boundless fungi wrapping around him, and proceeded cautiously to the depths of the first deck.

His steps were steady, and he did not rush ahead because of the rush of time.

Even every time you pass a corner of a passage, you will first check the situation with a vigilant probe, and then continue to move forward until it is safe to do so.

This E-class transport ship has a large area, and the length of the hull has exceeded 100 meters.

From the airlock room to the bridge command room at the other end, Meng Lei walked for two minutes before reaching the end.

During the whole process, the lighting system in the corridor was always in an extremely unstable state, flickering on and off.

Obviously, the circuit system of this submarine has been damaged by the thalamic hyphae and is gradually developing towards complete paralysis.

However, it may be that the time to be parasitized is still short.

Except for a large number of fungal spores in the air, there is no other abnormal phenomenon on the first floor of the submarine, and everything is very normal.

It was not until Meng Lei opened the hatch of the bridge command room that he finally found an unusual trace.

The all-metal console console was densely covered with a large number of dark brown strange lines.

Like the rhizomes of vines, rooted in the gaps of the deck, growing on the surface of the console.

Meng Lei stepped forward cautiously and looked cautiously.

I saw that those strange lines were like tentacles, twisting and wriggling on the surface of the center console.

And it grows rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, infiltrating and spreading into the interior of the device.

These tentacles are entirely composed of countless fine hyphae, and the wriggling posture is not like a plant at all, but more like a strange and terrifying creature.

After sensing Meng Lei's approach, he followed the guidance of the pheromones in the air.

The mycelium structure that was originally attached to the surface of the center console to draw electricity, like a shark smelling blood, immediately turned its target and began to spread to Meng Lei's location.

However, these hyphae have not evolved an attack system.

They just followed the guidance of instinct, regarded Meng Lei as a new prey, and tried to capture it with the most basic means.

Meng Lei frowned slightly, feeling the strong predatory instinct of the thalamus.

Fortunately, the mycelium spreads very slowly and does not pose any threat at all.

He slowly stepped back, without immediately removing the mycelium, he turned around and closed the hatch.

These ordinary hyphae will collapse and paralyze immediately after the core organ is destroyed, and there is no need to put too much energy on this little minion.

The vegetated crew, and the lymphatic system capable of multiplying cell armies, are the main targets of their combat squad.

During the alternation of light and shadow, Meng Lei left the bridge command room and continued to explore the first floor area.

One cabin door after another was opened, and one cabin after another was explored by everyone.

However, except for a few places, occupied by the mycelium growing in the gaps of the deck, the entire first floor area was clean.

Not to mention the evolved thalamic organ, even the crew of this ship did not find any trace.

It can only be seen from the scattered oxygen masks on the deck ~lightnovelpub.net~ and various repair tools.

At some point in the past, there must have been a serious chaos here.

"Commander, the exploration of the artillery control room has been completed, and no abnormalities were found!"

"Report to the commander, the exploration of the electrical room is completed, and there is no abnormality!"

…

At this time, the reports of other members of the combat team came from the headset.

Meng Lei stepped out of an independent cabin similar to a confinement room, nodded slightly, and ordered in a deep voice:

"Everyone gathers and prepares to go down to the second floor!"

However, just as he finished speaking.

Somewhere on the first deck, there was a sudden crashing sound, which immediately startled everyone!
