MTL - Monster Factory-Chapter 1376 : First contact with the ship
When Dianjing chose yes, the saber-toothed tiger that originally looked like a sculpture suddenly came back to life.
Its silver-white metallic appearance, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, fluctuates unimaginably.
There is no mechanical noise, and no abnormalities will be heard even in the silent night.
When the fluctuations ended, the surface of the saber-toothed tiger's original smooth body became "scene".
The previously closed eyes were replaced by a pair of insightful eyes filled with all kinds of optical sensing and detection equipment in pitch black.
There is an extra layer of fin-like fins between its toes, and the tail becomes a mechanical tail with serrated sharp edges, full of destruction.
The surviving saber-toothed tiger shook its mechanical tail.
Accompanied by the sound of several sharp blades cutting through the air, the two saber-toothed tigers lightly walked to the lead alloy sealed container containing the fission knife.
The sealed container opened, and only two unsharp blades were placed in the container with a thickness of nearly half a meter.
Its appearance is somewhat like a crescent, and its appearance is as smooth as a mirror.
At this time, Dianjing tapped twice on the screen to unlock the last insurance of the fission knife.
The mechanical tails of the two saber-toothed tigers were wrapped around the fission knife, and then the fission knife was locked at the end of the tail.
Dianjing and Yena immediately stepped back subconsciously.
Even if they are not afraid of the sky, they must remain in awe of the fission knife, let alone be rubbed by this thing.
Even if they were close, Dianjing and Ye Na both had a kind of fear of touching "death".
"Hurry up, hurry up and throw these two guys out." Ye Na stepped on her combat boots and jumped behind Dian Jing, her previous arrogance disappeared.
Dianjing is half a head shorter than Yena, and it wants to hide behind Lao Tzu, because Lao Tzu's body is much weaker than you.
Dianjing thought so and did the same. But when it turned around, an irresistible resistance suddenly spread from its fragile shoulders, and it was held in place by Ye Na.
? ? ?
"Yena NMM..."
When the two saber-toothed tigers were thrown into the sea, only small waves splashed like dolphins.
"The Fission Knife is on fire..."
Note: After ignition, the fission knife cannot be extinguished.
8%……19%……35%……79%……
One hundred and sixty high-purity fuel rods are encapsulated inside the half-meter-long fission knife.
In addition, one of the fuel rods at the bottom of it is the "igniter", and there is a metal "isolation door" between the fuel rods and the rest.
This "metal isolation door" is smaller than a coin. When the ignition process is started, a probe will be pierced into the tail locked by the saber-toothed tiger and the fission knife.
The probe directly pierces the ignition rod and opens the "isolation door" to allow the ignition rod to contact the fuel rod at zero distance.
The fuel rod is quickly activated by the thermal neutron source released by the ignition rod and enters a self-sustained chain fission reaction.
The fission knife is made of amorphous metal, and it can remain intact even at a high temperature of 4000 degrees.
As the fuel rods are activated, the surface of the fission knife gradually becomes hot.
First, a layer of fine air bubbles quickly emerged on the surface of the fission knife in contact with seawater. The bubbles continued to regenerate as they burst, and then the silver surface of the fission knife slowly turned into a hot red.
The bubbles are also rapidly growing, so that they become boiling. A huge Spanish mackerel noticed an abnormal change. It was attracted by the bursting sound of bubbles like boiling water and swam over curiously.
Many fish are easily attracted by shiny objects, and this Spanish mackerel is no exception. It's just that it didn't swim within two meters of the fission knife before it quickly fled in panic.
Because going further, it will be scalded to death by the abnormally changing water temperature.
When the fission knife was completely activated, the two saber-toothed tigers quickly swung their bodies and swam toward the position of the guided missile cruiser ten nautical miles away.
The fission knife, which was as hot as a fire, dragged two continuously bursting bubbles in the water, just like the trail of bubbles left by the rapid advance of a torpedo.
It is a pity that the saber-toothed tiger and the fission knife are not torpedoes. The bursting sound of these bubbles is less than 70 decibels, and the sound wave frequency is only 200 Hz, which is far lower than the noise of the ocean itself.
...
When the two saber-toothed tigers were thousands of meters away from the guided missile cruiser, the noise of the fission knife and the heating of the seawater was finally caught by the equipment on the cruiser.
When warships perform combat missions, they will turn on the passive sonar detection system located at the bottom of the bow.
Passive sonar only captures and analyzes the noise in the ocean, and does not send out sonar detection sound waves. Therefore, the passive sonar will not be detected by other warships or submarines.
The passive sonar system of this cruiser is undoubtedly one of the most advanced systems in the world.
Although the sound of bubbles attached to the fission knife is small, it maintains the same decibel and frequency for a long time. The closer it is to the cruiser, the easier it is to distinguish it from the messy ocean noise.
Especially when the distance between the two is only a few kilometers.
The sonar system automatically marked this voiceprint. When the sonarman was wondering why this strange sound source track appeared on the screen, the sonar system couldn't wait to start marking this sound source red, saying "Suspected threat" "signal.
Because it is too fast and swimming in the direction of the cruiser, the sonar system without emotion will of course make a prompt.
The sonarman who was startled by the red circle quickly checked the characteristics of the sound source signal on the screen. When he stared at the data, his expression gradually relaxed, and he patted his chest with lingering fear.
Common sense also told sonarists that ninety-nine percent were false positives.
Because the volume of the sound source displayed on the sonar screen is very small, it is unusually abrupt, which does not fit the trajectory of man-made equipment.
Passive sonar alarms for no reason are not uncommon.
There are several species of fish that are known for their speed, and when they chase their prey around a ship with all their strength, they all produce similar sustained sound sources.
Some fierce fishes are also attracted by the sound of surface ships and blindly chase surface ships along the sound source.
Of course, there are also some smart creatures, such as dolphins, which regard fast-moving ships on the water as "hit winds" and cruise in groups in front of the bulbous bow of the ship.
Under normal circumstances, warships will never react to these marine creatures.
Only when performing combat missions when passive sonar monitoring needs to be turned on can there be such a tense atmosphere.
The sonar has just sat in this position for a few years, and he modestly believes that he does not know enough about the species in the ocean.
He decided to observe for a few more seconds.
It was just a few seconds of sonar hesitation whether to report, and that strange "threat" signal disappeared like foam in the ocean waves.
The sonar was completely relaxed and raised the 99% of false alarms to 100.
Of course, the reason for the disappearance of the sound source signal was not that the two saber teeth slipped away.
When the fission knife heats the sea water, there will be bubbles, but when the steel is heated, there are not so many bubbles.
Especially the special high-strength steel for warships.
At this time, one of the saber-toothed tigers was attached to the bow position, and the other, using fin-shaped fins, was firmly attached to the bottom of the hull near the propeller like a sucker.
