Pang Xiaonan looked at the black and quiet sea, and a hint of bad omen was born in his heart, "Professor, do you think there will be any monsters when the dark wind is high this night?"

Professor Li Sanming chewed licorice in his mouth and held a thermos cup in his hand, and said, "The more harsh the environment, the more dangerous it is. Li Sanming didn't say it casually, in his scientific research career, he encountered many harsh environments, the worst time, his companion was torn in half by wild beasts, and at that time, it was when the night was dark and the wind was high.

Pang Xiaonan also agreed with this point of view, he took a bite of licorice hard, and then spit out a mouthful of phlegm into the trash, "You're right, this night should be our real test." ”

The night was already completely dark, and on the black sea, a bright night light rose in the air, and the sea was only sparkling, but there was no sign of danger.

The sniper's deputy asked the sniper, "Brother, it seems a little weird that this night is calm." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, maybe this is the norm of the Bloss Disk, and the unknown creatures that attacked us before are just fish unknown to humans. "The sniper is hopeful about the future.

Combat Officer Wu Zhen looked at Oda Rima on his back, "Professor Oda Rima, do you think the unknown creature that attacked us could be a prehistoric creature?"

Oda Rima smiled: "Brother Wuzhen, don't think about it, at least until I see the specific biological specimens, I can't give you an accurate answer, at most, they are a little more powerful than the creatures known in the existing biological world." ”

Wu Zhen turned around and continued to stare at the uncertain sea, he was not a biologist, and he didn't know where the two groups of unknown creatures that attacked today came from, but he felt that they were quite powerful.

The sniper team did not dare to slack off for a moment, constantly scanning the sea through the scope, but unfortunately, they did not find anything abnormal since the sun went down.

Bucton Lin was staring ahead in the cockpit at the moment, and his heart still didn't relax for a moment, he looked at the first mate next to him, "Is the direction still steady?"

The first mate had a calm expression, "Captain, don't worry, our direction has not changed, heading towards the southeast of the Bloss Circle, which is guaranteed to be a straight line." ”

"According to what you said, there is no night at night, do you position according to the position of the stars?" Although Bucton Lin believed in his brothers, he would not fully believe it, especially Pang Xiaonan, who cooperated for the first time.

"Yes, the sun is just a star, but it is very bright during the day, and at night, it disappears, and I have to rely on other stars, are stars also stars?"

Pang Xiaonan pressed the switch of the Bluetooth headset, "Captain, I asked to go to the deck to assist the combat team, everything is fine in the cabin, and the scientific expedition team is in a stable mood......

Pang Xiaonan was really bored in the cabin, so he made up his mind to ask for this task to go to the deck to breathe.

"Pang Xiaonan, strictly guard your post, and you must not leave your post without permission!" Bucton Lin gave an order, he thought that Pang Xiaonan's arrival on the deck at this time would be of no avail.

"Yes, Captain. Pang Xiaonan helplessly pressed the switch of the Bluetooth headset.

"What, don't you want to accompany me, an old man?" Professor Li Sanming felt Pang Xiaonan's boredom, so he took the initiative to ask to go to the deck to breathe.

"Professor, what did you say!" Pang Xiaonan suddenly remembered an allusion and began to enlighten Professor Li Sanming.

"Do you know Bian Que?" Pang Xiaonan threw out a celebrity.

"The famous Chinese doctor, I know. As a famous scientist in China, Li Sanming is also familiar with his ancestors.

"Many years ago, King Wei Wen asked the famous doctor Bian Que, your three brothers are all good at medical skills, which one is the best? Bian Que replied: The eldest brother is the best, the middle brother is the second, and I am the worst. Bian Que replied that the eldest brother was good at curing diseases that had not yet fallen ill, and before the onset of the disease, ordinary people did not know that he could eradicate the cause of the disease in advance, so his fame could not be spread, that is, our family respected him; the middle brother was good at curing the disease of desire, and at the beginning of the illness, the general people thought that he could only cure minor diseases, so his fame was only in his own village; while I was only good at curing the diseases that had already been ill, and when the illness was serious, ordinary people saw me with needles and bloodletting. I used medicine to teach medicine, and I thought that I was skilled in medicine, so my reputation was resounding all over the country. ”

"Oh, you mean to say that you're on deck now to prepare for a rainy day. Professor Li Sanming looked at Pang Xiaonan ambiguously, and his fingers tapped on the dining table.

"That's the truth, you think, I'm going to the deck now, I saw the danger, maybe I can think of a solution for the first time, stay here, it's an afterthought." Pang Xiaonan has always felt that staying by the side of these scientific expedition members in the "Flower of Bulos" cannot really solve the problem, and only by rushing to the front line can he give full play to his talents.

"You're right, you're here, at best, to pass the time with me, I believe that you are on the front line of the battle to give full play to your talents. Li Sanming also has this concept of Pang Xiaonan, personal protection can only exert real power when danger comes, and these attacks have not really invaded the side of the scientific expedition team.

"It's a pity that the captain doesn't approve it. "Pang Xiaonan doesn't necessarily have to go on deck, but he just accompanies these members of the scientific expedition team, and he really doesn't have the place to give full play to his ability.

"I'll help you ask for approval. Professor Li Sanming reached out to Pang Xiaonan's ear, took off Pang Xiaonan's Bluetooth headset, pressed the switch of the Bluetooth headset, and said into the microphone, "Captain Bucton Lin, I am Li Sanming, I ask you to let Pang Xiaonan go to the deck to help protect our safety, I don't think he has much use here, and wasted his talent." ”

After speaking, Li Sanming and Pang Xiaonan squeezed his eyebrows, showing that he was acting.

Bucton Lin thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed, "Professor Li Sanming, Pang Xiaonan is a member of the team who will give you personal protection, if you insist on letting him come to the deck, then please don't blame us Black Mamba for all the accidents that happened in the cabin." ”

Li Sanming quickly responded: "Major Buctonlin, all the consequences will be borne by me alone, please agree to our request and let Pang Xiaonan assist in the battle against unknown creatures." ”

"Okay, Professor Li Sanming, please tell Pang Xiaonan, I approve him to go on deck to assist the combat team. Bucton Lin had no choice but to hang up the Bluetooth headset, his position was very embarrassing, and he could not offend the big boss Bridgemorgan, nor the captain of the scientific expedition, Professor Li Sanming, although he was the commander of the operation.

"Up!" Li Sanming took off his headphones and shouted at Pang Xiaonan, "Your captain approved you to go up." ”

"Thank you, Professor. Pang Xiaonan took the headphones and put them back on his ears.

"Thank you, you're all for our safety. Professor Li Sanming leaned back in his chair and exhaled slowly, "However, I hope you can do everything you can to keep us safe." ”

"Don't worry, Professor!" Pang Xiaonan walked towards the door of the cabin with great interest, passed by Lewis's side, and patted Leis on the shoulder, "The safety in the cabin is handed over to you, I have to go to the deck to see the situation." ”

Lewis nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll work hard." ”

Pang Xiaonan went to the deck and stood next to the combat officer Wu Zhen, "Brother Wu Zhen, is there anything abnormal on the sea?"

The night on the sea is particularly charming, with a silvery white glow that illuminates the calm sea, and except for the occasional calm wave, everything seems particularly quiet.

Wu Zhen turned around and said, "There is nothing abnormal, this situation makes me a little suspicious, whether we are here is the Bloss Disk, it is too calm." ”

Although the "Flower of Bloss" has experienced two blows, but those two attacks only seem to be in danger of the hull, so the Black Mamba Escort on the ship still feels a little incredible, everyone is determined to die before leaving, but now everyone is still alive, so unreal.

"Don't be in a hurry, the ultimate is always inadvertent. As Pang Xiaonan, who has experienced countless dangers, these short calms are not enough to explain the danger of the situation.

"Six o'clock direction, repeat, six o'clock direction, an unknown creature was found approaching, and the enemy spewed out a column of water more than ten meters!" Suddenly, the sniper's deputy reported a message.

"No, it's not more than ten meters, it could be more than twenty meters of water. The sniper deputy added repeatedly.

"Everyone, get ready for battle, sniper, give the scope to Professor Oda Rima and let Professor Oda Rima confirm what kind of creature it is!" Bucton Lin laid out the combat mission in the Bluetooth headset.

"Professor Rita Rita!" the sniper's deputy handed the scope to Oda Rima "There is an unknown creature ahead, please observe it immediately and tell us what type of creature it is." ”

Rita Lima immediately took the scope and looked at it carefully.

The night light sprinkled a little starlight on the sea, but it was impossible to see the sea surface accurately, and everything seemed faint.

"I can't see clearly what kind of creature is coming, it's too far away, judging from the water column that spews out, it should be a creature like a whale, and as for what kind of program it is, you can only judge it if you walk in. Professor Rita Rima carefully observed and eagerly reported his conclusions.

"Snipers, keep an eye on the direction of the unknown creature, and if you get closer to 100 meters or something, attack immediately. Bucton Lin made a combat deployment, he didn't want the unknown creature to get close to the "Flower of Buloss" and attack from a short distance.

"Yes, Captain!" the sniper team stood by as the unidentified whale-like species approached.

"Captain, the unknown species has been solved 100 meters!" The sniper's deputy issued a warning, although there was no specific instrument to measure the distance, but based on experience, the unknown creature had approached the warning value.

"Fire!" Bucton Lin could no longer afford the loss of the monster fish biting the hull, and he wanted to reduce the damage to the smallest possible extent.

"Bang!" the sniper rifle made a dull sound, and the bullet hit the body of the unknown creature like a meteor.

"Woohoo......" The unknown creature let out a terrible wail, and the moan resounded through the sky.

"Report to the captain, hit the target, but the target shows no signs of stopping!" the sniper's deputy reported in the Bluetooth headset, his voice full of anxiety.

"Keep attacking!" Without a moment's hesitation, Buckton Lin continued to give the order to attack.

"Bang...... Bang...... Bang......" The sniper fired several bullets in a row, all of which hit the target, but the enemy, after letting out a wail, continued to swim towards the "Flower of Bloth".

The sniper is equipped with an infrared sighting device, which is able to capture huge targets even in such a dark night when you can't reach your fingers.

"Captain, the enemy doesn't seem to be reacting to our attack!" The sniper also panicked, several bullets in a row, judging from the enemy's reaction, it should have hit, but the enemy did not flinch at all, and it seemed that the damage to it was not great.

"Combat officer, immediately prepare for a heavy machine gun attack on the ship!" After receiving the sniper's report, Buckton Lin quickly gave a combat instruction.

"Roger!" At the moment when Bucton Lin gave the order, Uzhen had already jumped onto the heavy machine gun console and held the handle of the heavy machine gun with both hands.

For military warships, missiles, naval guns, and torpedoes are their most important weapon systems, and the application of missiles makes naval warfare more inclined to ultra-long-distance combat, but it is worth noting that even if warships with very advanced equipment such as missiles and naval guns still install heavy machine guns on the deck, many people think that this is a complete waste, so what is the use of heavy machine guns on large warships? It is true that naval guns will solve long-range targets to a large extent, but it does not mean that warships will not be threatened by near-range enemies, so the role of heavy machine guns is to hit close-range targets.

In the face of enemy small surface boats, frogmen, floating torpedoes and other sea targets, heavy machine guns can easily be repelled by fire suppression, and the machine guns on patrol ships can attack enemy soldiers and light armored vehicles along the coast.

If the firepower of a large warship fails to completely destroy the enemy's air power, and one or two small fighters take advantage of the loophole and fly to their heads to bombard indiscriminately, then the heavy machine gun can be used as an anti-aircraft machine gun, and even if the enemy fighter plane cannot be shot down, at least it can be relieved for a while.

As unidentified creatures get closer and closer, and since radar has lost its effectiveness, heavy machine guns, which are heavy weapons that rely on human aim, become extremely important.

"Combat officer, aim at the direction of the unknown creature and suppress the fire!" Buckton Lin gave the attack command, and Wu Zhen locked the direction of the unknown creature through the sight, and began to spit out tongues of fire frantically.

The unknown creature let out a cry of pain, but the direction of travel did not change, and it still swam straight towards the "Flower of Bloss".

In addition to the Black Mamba Escort, there was also Professor Rita Rima on the deck, who was holding the scope of the sniper's deputy at the moment to observe the unidentified creature slowly approaching, "Oh my God, this is a prehistoric whale!"

Melville's whale is a prehistoric whale that dates back 15 million years. We have the impression that prehistoric creatures are generally large and fierce, and Melville whales are no exception, and have even been competing with prehistoric megalodons for the supremacy of the sea. The fossils that have been found so far can prove this. The Melville whale sample found so far has only one skull, and scientists estimate that the Melville whale is 17 meters long and weighs 65 tons. Fossils show that Melville whales are similar in size and appearance to modern sperm whales. But in contrast to modern sperm whales, which only had functional teeth in the lower jaws, Melville whales had teeth in both jaws, and were much larger than those of modern sperm whales: the largest whale teeth in existence, probably feeding on baleen whales.

Professor Rita sat on the ground, the most incredible thing she had discovered since she began her paleontological research.

Bucton Lin saw Oda Rima slumped to the ground in the cockpit, and immediately realized that something was unusual, "Sniper deputy, give the headset to Professor Oda Rima !"

The sniper's deputy immediately took off the Bluetooth headset from his ear, handed it to Oda Rima, and said, "Professor Oda Rima, the captain has something to tell you!"

"Professor Rita Rima Oda, what did you find?" Buctonlin's voice was anxious, and he was only a few dozen meters away from the unknown creature approaching the "Flower of Bloss".

"This is a prehistoric whale, we're finished!" Rita Rita's voice was full of tremors, she didn't expect that she would encounter such a ferocious prehistoric creature in her lifetime.

"Professor Oda Rima, don't panic yet, tell me the specific data of the prehistoric whale, length, weight, natural predators, ......" Buctonlin did not panic, as a commander, he had to figure out all the details.

"Melville's whale is 17 meters long and weighs 65 tons, almost the size of a small ship, our ship is definitely not its opponent......" Rita Rima's mouth was full of horror.

Bucton Lin smiled, he had already jumped from the cockpit to the deck, helped Oda Rima up, and said lightly: "Professor Oda Rima, it seems that you don't know our ship, our ship is converted from a torpedo boat, 30 meters long, with a tonnage of about 300 tons, a small whale can't help us." ”

Oda Rima looked at Bucton Lin suspiciously, and asked eagerly, "Really, our ship is so powerful?"

Bucton Lin helped Oda Rima to the back of the deck and asked, "Professor Oda Rima, are you sure it's a whale?"

"It's a whale, but it's a whale that has been gone for many years. Lima Oda was shocked and looked at the sea in front of her.

"Captain, there's more than one whale coming!" shouted both the sniper and the observer.

"That's not good!" Bucton Lin frowned and shouted at the combat officer Wu Zhen, "Wu Zhen, hold on to the machine gun!"

"Yes, Captain!" Wu Zhen immediately shook his spirits, holding the handle of the machine gun tightly, and the equipment on his body shook and made a clattering sound.

Buctonlin's concern is not unreasonable, if it is a whale, even if it is a prehistoric giant whale, it cannot pose a huge threat to the "Flower of Bloss", if the other party comes with a school of whales, then even if it passes through the "Flower of Bloss", it will cause waves to the ship, which may cause the result of capsizing.

"Listen to my instructions, the combat officer operates the heavy machine gun, the sniper snipes, and the demoman operates the bazooka, attacking the incoming whales separately, each responsible for one target, and the firing range enters 50 meters to fire!" After completing the combat deployment, Buctonlin jumped into the cockpit.

"First mate, try your best to avoid the whale collision. "Although the tonnage of the whale is much smaller than the "Flower of Bloss", it is still very dangerous to be hit by a whale, after all, this is at sea, and if you start the wind and waves again, it is likely to capsize.

"Yes, Captain!" the first mate was in full swing, his eyes fixed on the sea.

At this time, the sky is completely dark, only a little starlight is sprinkled on the dark sea, the waves set off by the moving whales are faintly visible, and occasionally, the whales will let out a terrible cry, which makes people feel creepy.

"Captain, three whales are in front of us, and they are immediately out of range!" the sniper calmly reported in the Bluetooth headset.

Bucton Lin walked out of the cockpit quickly, came to the deck, and instructed Pang Xiaonan, "You immediately escort Professor Oda Rima to the cockpit!" Pang Xiaonan then took Oda Rima's hand and dragged it to the cabin, "Professor Oda Lima enters the cabin immediately, there is danger on the deck." ”

Rita Rima obediently entered the cabin and sat down on the original seat, her heart pounding.

Pang Xiaonan winked at Professor Li Sanming and said, "Professor, we have friends here, and three whales are here. ”

"Really?" Professor Li Sanming kept looking at the scenery outside the window, he didn't see the whales cruising in this direction, he turned his head and asked Pang Xiaonan, "What are you going to do?"

Professor Li Sanming knew that Pang Xiaonan could hear the battle deployment on the deck, and he was curious to know what these bloodthirsty guys would do with the whales.

"Listen to the captain, get rid of them before they get close to our ship. Pang Xiaonan made a gesture of wiping his neck, but there was a smile in his eyes.

"Shouldn't we make a decision after confirming whether the other party is friend or foe?" Professor Li Sanming seemed to think that Bucton Lin was too reckless in making this decision, "Maybe they are just passing by." ”

"I think even if they're just passing by, it's dangerous for us to accidentally hit our boat. Pang Xiaonan shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Therefore, for the sake of our own safety, the captain is forced to make this decision." ”

If three whales hit the "Flower of Blous" at the same time, they would knock the boat over, even if they couldn't break the hull. The two small whales had embarrassed the Black Mamba Guardian before, but this time it was a prehistoric giant shark with much more destructive power.

Professor Li Sanming sighed, he knew that the actions of the Black Mamba Escort were all for everyone's safety, and there was really no better way.
