Chapter 293: Undersea crisis

Arthur Stone did not seem to be in a hurry, and said: "Those things are formed under a special magnetic field, but there must be a real thing behind them. As long as we avoid that real thing, our submarine will not It will be physically damaged. However, it is hard to predict what impact the strong magnetic field will have on the safety of the equipment and personnel of the submarine."

"What is that thing you are talking about?" Ivan asked.

Arthur Stone said: "It's a pyramid."

"Pyramid?" Boris widened his eyes. "What are you kidding? We are now on the edge of the South Pacific basin. Are the Maori descendants of the ancient Egyptians?"

"Do you know where we are now?" Stone asked.

"Of course." Boris glanced at the chart and the positioning system. "Now it is about 150 degrees west longitude, 30 degrees south latitude, on the eastern edge of the South Pacific Basin, and a little further north to Tubuai. Islands."

Stone nodded and said, "You can imagine if there is a straight line from us to the center of the earth, where is the opposite end of the earth?"

A globe appeared in Boris' mind, imagining a straight line passing through the center of the earth from where they were, muttering: "The corresponding latitude and longitude is 30 degrees east longitude and 30 degrees north latitude, there should be..."

He searched his memory. For those who run at sea all year round, they can remember the location of each island, but they have very little knowledge of the mainland's geography.

"That's Egypt." Ivan said.

Boris seemed to think of something, and said, "Don't tell me that the pyramids of Egypt have fallen from the other side of the earth."

"It won't fall off, but they made an identical one on the other side of the earth," Stone said.

"Who did this?" Boris asked curiously. "I don't believe that the pharaohs will drive to Polynesia in warships."

"It's hard to say, maybe they made the stone people on Easter Island." Someone said.

"Come on, you said I still believe Stonehenge, just forget about Easter Island."

"But Easter Island is not far from here, isn't there a miracle in the South Pacific that was done by the same group?"

...

Everyone, you are talking every word, only Ivan has been silent. He looked at Stone and knew that he probably wouldn’t say any more news. Anyway, if something happens, there will be someone in this boat. Can't run away either.

"Ivan, the magnetic interference is getting stronger and stronger, they are getting closer and closer to us."

"Drive at full power, go as far as possible in the direction where the magnetic interference is weak, and rush at full speed." Ivan commanded.

"Do you want to float to the surface first?"

The speed of this old-fashioned submarine is much slower than that of modern submarines. If it can float to the surface and sprint, the speed will increase by at least three knots.

"It's too late," Ivan said.

"Okay, go ahead at full speed."

Everyone stopped joking at this time, and looked like they were waiting, even Boris put away his always joking expression and angry temper.

The submarine headed towards the place where the magnetic interference was the weakest at a speed of thirteen knots.

If someone can see the deep sea at this time, they will find that in the deep blue sea, there is a circle of transparent inverted pyramid-shaped objects shining with light blue light, suspended in the sea like icebergs.

An old black submarine, like a huge whale, silently slammed into those strange things.

Those suspended inverted pyramids are also moving at extremely fast speeds, merging, and they seem to be devouring the submarine.

"Ivan, the magnetic detection is completely disrupted, and we seem to be surrounded by a strong and disorderly magnetic field!"

"Fortunately, in such a magnetic field, our equipment did not fail!"

"Ivan, the sonar detection is responding, there is something ahead!"

"what?"

"It's an iceberg!...No!...It's not an iceberg, it's a pyramid, an upside-down pyramid! The same as those seen on the sea!"

"Turn the rudder! Avoid it!"

"Yes, twenty-five on the left rudder, three forward!"

...

"Ivan, we seem to be unable to avoid it, it is still right in front of us!"

"Could it be another one?"

"No, there is only one sonar display."

"..." Ivan looked at Stone, but Stone was lost in thought.

"I'm about to hit it, Ivan!"

"Turn the rudder again!"

"Zuo Ruo Twenty! ... Oh, my God, it's still there!"

"Back, emergency back three!" Ivan made a temporary decision.

"Yes, three emergency withdrawals."

...

"That guy seems to have followed us!"

"Don't worry about it, keep going back!"

"Yes, keep going back!"

"Ooo!" The person in charge of sonar detection cheered, "It seems to be thrown away."

The crew members were happy and were no longer as nervous as before. But Ivan did not relax at all. How could a behemoth suddenly disappear from the sonar detection?

Sure enough, the person in charge of sonar quickly yelled in panic: "It's behind us!"

Ivan immediately ordered: "Turn the rudder, enter the third in an emergency, and move forward at full speed."

The crew followed the order. Although they are all veterans, the submarine keeps changing speed and direction, making everyone in the boat feel that blood is surging. After all, this situation has not happened for many years. Ivan looked at Stone and saw that there was no change in the expression on his face, as if he was just having breakfast at the dinner table.

"Ivan, it's in front!"

"Use a torpedo and blow it up, Ivan!" Boris roared, "It's too late!"

Ivan had no choice but to ruthlessly commanded: "Launch a torpedo!"

"Yes, launch a torpedo!" Boris became excited, his face flushed.

The speed of the torpedo is much faster than that of the submarine, reaching a speed of 40 knots, which is about 20 meters per second. According to the sonar detection, the distance between the back and the thing just now was about two kilometers, and the target could be hit in less than two minutes.

But after only a minute or so, the sonar observer exclaimed: "It has avoided!"

"what?"

This thing will hide from torpedoes? That means it is manned or intelligently driven. Such a big thing, suspended on the bottom of the sea, can sail in the sea at a depth of 900 feet at a speed of about twelve knots. Which country is this wonderful submarine made?

The crew were puzzled.

Ivan didn't want that much, because if he got closer and passed a safe distance, firing a torpedo would be tantamount to suicide.

"Boris!" Ivan yelled, "Shoot all the torpedoes out of me, covering the front of the submarine at a sixty-degree angle of up, down, left, and right. See where he hides?"

"Good Ivan! You are so kind!" Boris exclaimed excitedly.

The submarine kept adjusting the torpedo launch angle, and all the remaining thirteen torpedoes were launched.

...

"Damn it!" the crew member in charge of the sonar called.

"What's wrong?"

"That guy is gone!"

"what?"

"Not only that guy is missing, our torpedo is also missing!"

"How can it be?"

"Is the sonar broken?"

"There is... it is possible~lightnovelpub.net~ but..."

"But what?"

"It seems, as if the torpedoes are back... thirteen...yes, they are our torpedoes...oh my goodness, our torpedoes are coming towards us! They are going to attack us!"

"What did you say?" Boris shouted.

"Quiet away!" Ivan also yelled. Being hit by a torpedo is not a joke. You must know that torpedoes exploded underwater are more powerful than missiles exploded on the ground. One torpedo can make a destroyer scrapped. .

"We can't avoid it, Ivan! Thirteen torpedoes came from thirteen directions, blocking all our routes."

There was deathly silence in the command cabin, only the sonar detector beeping alarms, and thirteen green dots were displayed on the instrument's screen, which was approaching the center.
