Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine Chapter 160

Regarding the maintenance of the E-class official transport boat, more than ten mechanical engineers and electrical engineers worked overtime for emergency repairs.

Finally, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, the dust settled.

During the period, Meng Lei had nothing to do, and ran to the boat to check the refining results of the Moluoke genetic material.

The genetic material that was originally **** and creeping, has now turned into a green pool of unknown liquid.

Through Goldfinger's hint, Meng Lei was able to understand that this mysterious liquid creation was the most crucial substance for genetic modification, the genetic stock solution.

And the genetic stock solution that has been specially refined by the genetic research station has subtle differences between its genetic integrity and the genetic material itself.

Originally, the genetic integrity of the Moluoke genetic material was 20% after being identified by Goldfinger.

And the refined genetic stock solution, the genetic integrity is only 18%!

Compared with the Moluoke gene contained in the genetic material itself, it has dropped by two percentage points.

From this data, it can be found that the genetic research station produced by the Alliance Biological Research Institute is indeed not stable enough during the refining process.

Don't underestimate the integrity gap of these two percentage points. After acting on the human body, there will be serious security risks.

Gene is the ultimate code related to the birth and evolution of life.

Any subtle changes at the genetic level will cause unknown mutations in life.

Therefore, in addition to the perfect gene with 100% integrity, it can be said that any defective gene solution is a time bomb with unknown effect!

Meng Lei also secretly decided that, before obtaining 100% perfection, even if this technology matures in the future, he will never easily carry out genetic modification on himself, so as to avoid some unknown changes in the future.

In addition, the current situation does not allow him to use this technology for himself.

Although there are already refining equipment and genetic stock solution, if you want to carry out genetic modification, you still need a key item.

According to Gina's description, this thing is called a gene editor, which is a miniature foreign body device embedded in the human body.

After the gene stock solution is injected into the human body through the gene editor, the human genes will be changed within a controllable range.

Meng Lei checked the tally list provided by the combat team and found no information on such equipment.

Therefore, the genetic modification technology chain he has now is still incomplete, and he is stuck on the last step of the injection project.

"Forget it, anyway, there is currently no suitable genetic material to refine. When you really meet the perfect gene, you can find a way to get the gene editor. The connector Roger introduced this time happened to be the senior executive of the alliance's scientific research outpost. , I think he should have a channel to get a gene editor."

Meng Lei's mentality is very good, and he does not worry about gains and losses.

He explained to Simon and other fighters that the two precious genetic research equipment were re-reinforced to avoid collision and damage during transportation. Meng Lei personally inspected the E-class transport boat that had been parasitized by the thalamus. .

Until it is confirmed that the thalamic fungus has been completely removed from the entire ship, and the spores in the air are all inactive and no longer threatening.

Meng Lei finally felt relieved and heaved a long sigh of relief.

An E-class official transport boat, plus 4,000 tons of food supplies, the total value is estimated to be tens of millions!

This windfall was more valuable than the batch of painted worm eggs.

It can also be seen why a large number of pirate groups exist in the depths of this dark and vast ocean.

Indeed, the temptation to get rich overnight is too great.

Working diligently in the alliance gathering place for a lifetime is not as much as a fraction of the money earned by robbing a submarine.

Such a lucrative business is indeed worth taking the risk.

If you win one vote, you will spend your whole life eating and drinking without worrying about it.

To be honest, if it is convenient to realize, Meng Lei would rather turn around and return directly now, instead of taking the risk to go to Barona Colony, first use this batch of goods to help the fleet get through the immediate urgency.

However, the ship, including the cargo on board, was not visible at all.

Once discovered by the alliance, it will inevitably be forcibly withdrawn at the first time, and eventually the cargo will be left empty.

Therefore, whether it is to digest it by itself or to realize the goods, this Barona colony has to go.

"Captain, everything is arranged!"

"As soon as the guards are ready, they can set sail at any time!"

"Second Guard is ready, stand by at any time!"

"The three guards are in place..."

At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Ming and several people reported the situation in the communication channel one after another, indicating that the voyage fleet was ready.

Before departure, Meng Lei called the accompanying captains to the Sea Locust, and made new planning adjustments according to the current number of members of the expedition fleet.

In addition to the Sea Locust, the personnel of the other four F-class exploration boats were appropriately weakened, and most of the main force was transferred to the E-class transport boat.

Although large submarines are large in size, they have plenty of firepower.

Correspondingly, more people are required to control it, otherwise it will not work at all.

Aside from other things, there are as many as ten weapons on this ship alone!

Among them, there are six double-linked electromagnetic guns and machine guns located on the top of the submarine, which are located at the bow, stern and center.

At the bottom of the submarine, there are also four double-linked laser turrets, two in two groups, as the fire support below.

Even if it is controlled in a linkage mode, these ten turrets require five experienced gunners to operate, otherwise it will not be able to play an effect at all.

In addition, larger ships also mean that the hull structure is more complex, and the probability of failure of the electrical equipment in the ship is higher, so the maintenance crew must also ensure that there are sufficient personnel.

Fortunately, there are many alternates on the voyage this time, and after strict planning and deployment, there are barely enough personnel needed to ensure the normal navigation of the fleet.

As a result, every crew member in the fleet was used to the best of his ability and was placed in the corresponding job position, and there were no redundant personnel available for replacement.

If there is any accident that leads to attrition, it means that the fleet will inevitably have loopholes in some aspects.

This is also impossible,

If you want to take this E-class transport boat on the road, you must bear the corresponding price.

But from another point of view, with this advanced cargo ship, the overall strength of the fleet has also been improved by leaps and bounds.

In terms of firepower, this E-class transport boat is equivalent to two F-class exploration boats, or even better, and the safety factor has been greatly guaranteed.

It can be regarded as a kind of compensation in disguise.

Seven o'clock in the evening.

After everything was arranged, everyone had a simple dinner.

The voyage fleet that stayed near the g43 beacon station for a day and a night finally set sail again.

Six submarines of different sizes lined up in a row, headed by the largest E-class transport boat. According to the guidance of the navigation, the mighty drifted away from the depths of darkness.

at the same time.

At the same time that the voyage fleet re-launched.

There is another sea area thousands of kilometers away from the g43 beacon station.

Here is a vast undersea plain, far from the safe waterway opened up by the alliance.

There is no sign of any biological activity on the white sandy seabed, only scattered reefs and dead corals, deliberately dotted with a desolate environment like the Gobi, everything seems extremely dead and lifeless.

Although it is nearly 100 kilometers away from the safe waterway, this place also belongs to the sea area under the jurisdiction of the 66671 waterway.

At this moment, somewhere in this desolate and desolate undersea plain, surrounded by reefs like a forest of steles.

A solitary black shadow with obvious artificial chisel marks hovered quietly on the seabed.

As you got closer, you could see that it was a submarine.

The shape is like an eagle's beak, with beautiful streamlines. Under the reflection of the top searchlight, the pitch-black shell exudes a dull metallic light, like a giant steel beast dormant in the dark, silently waiting for the prey to arrive.

In the command room of the submarine's bridge, at this moment, there is a valiant short-haired beauty sitting on the driver's seat.

She is looking at the central control display with a serious face, her eyes are constantly wandering between the coordinates on the screen and the notebook in her hand, as if comparing something.

"It's clearly nearby, why aren't there any abnormal points displayed? Could it be that the coordinates provided by the alliance are wrong? Or is it that the ship in distress that issued the signal for help returned to normal and left?"

The short-haired beauty picked up the teacup on the center console, her delicate red lips pressed against the edge of the cup, and the doubts between her brows grew thicker.

After a while, she got up from her seat slightly tired and walked to the edge of the porthole.

The slender figure twisted slightly and stretched in place.

His eyes fell on a fiery red potted plant below the porthole, and the bright pomegranate flowers and fruits were hanging on the branches, each of which was full and mouthwatering.

The doubts on the short-haired beauty's face eased slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

"The potted plants sent by the little guy are getting better and better. I don't know how he is doing now. He didn't reply to the message for a day. Could it be something wrong?"

Thinking of a certain possibility, the smile that just emerged then solidified.

The short-haired beauty turned back to the center console, picked up the handheld tablet on the table, and was about to edit a text message.

At this moment, the hatch of the bridge command room suddenly opened, and a long-haired woman in a tight blue uniform stepped in.

"Commander, dinner is ready, come and eat."

The long-haired woman issued the invitation with a smile on her face, and there was a hint of respect in her words.

The short-haired beauty nodded when she heard the words, paused for a while, deleted the edited text, and placed the tablet on the center console.

"Let's go."

The two walked out of the bridge command room one after the other, passed the shaft passage in the corridor, and came to the restaurant on the second floor of the submarine.

at this time,

The restaurant is already full of crew members, most of whom are women, with men accounting for less than a quarter.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, picking up the day's dinner from the food processor.

It was not until the short-haired beauty entered the door that the noisy restaurant was finally quiet for a second, and everyone cast their gazes over and greeted respectfully.

"Hello Commander!"

"Hello Captain An!"

The short-haired beauty smiled and waved in response:

"You don't have to be so polite, continue to eat yours."

Everyone sat down one after another without being cautious. They each found a place to sit down, but gave up the main seat.

The short-haired beauty walked over to the food processor, picked up a plate for a steaming dinner, and returned to her seat.

At this time, someone asked:

"Commander, still haven't found the location of the shipwreck?"

The short-haired beauty shook her head and said while eating:

"No, the nearby sea area is very calm, there is not even a sea monster, and the sonar monitor can't detect any abnormal point signal. It is very likely that we have found the wrong place."

"Ah?! Did you find the wrong place?"

Someone exclaimed, and immediately showed a puzzled look, wondering:

"It stands to reason that it shouldn't. We have always moved forward according to the coordinates provided by the bounty task. How could we find the wrong place?"

Another person next to him said:

"The coordinate points are fixed, there is no deviation in our route, and the lack of a target can only mean that the mission information is wrong, or the target has changed position. The problem is not on us."

The short-haired beauty nodded when she heard the words, but she didn't make any further comments, her bright eyes stared at the plate in her hand, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the restaurant fell silent again.

In the air, only the sound of the collision of knives and forks reverberated, and the atmosphere was a little subtle for a while.

After a while, another female crew member finally spoke up in the crowd and asked:

"Commander, if we can't find the mission target, what should we do next?"

The short-haired beauty came back to her senses, pondered a little, and responded:

"If you can't find it, forget it. We have strayed too far from the safe route. If we continue to go deeper, even the network signal will be lost, and we can't continue to move forward."

After a pause, the short-haired beauty took a deep breath and said:

"The time of this voyage has far exceeded the scheduled plan. Normally, we should have returned the day before yesterday. If it weren't for the high reward for this rescue mission, it just so happened that we were still nearby, and we wouldn't be there now. Stay in this desolate sea.

In addition, there have been frequent external events recently, and the fleet has a lot to deal with.

Let's take a rest here tonight, and we'll do a final search tomorrow morning. If we can't find the mission target, we'll go back to the city. "

"Yes!"

The voice fell, and there was a sound of approval from the restaurant.

But at this moment, a sharp exclamation suddenly sounded from the crowd.

The long-haired woman who entered the restaurant with the short-haired beauty just now stood up from her seat, and as if she had seen something extremely terrifying, she lifted the plate in her hand, her face full of horror. The color shouted:

"What, what is this?! There is something weird in the meal!"
