MTL - Monster Factory-Chapter 1378 : Non-human enemies

The first place to witness the damage was the first duty officer sent to inspect the watertight compartment.

When he followed the winding metal stairs to the staggered maintenance passage at the bottom, he was about to enter the passage leading to the watertight compartment, and he smelled a burnt smell at the door first.

? ? ?

The duty officer opened a watertight door with a question mark on his face, and then the question mark became shocked.

In front of him was a narrow passage with a height of less than one meter full of various pipelines. Below this passage are watertight compartments one by one. Because no one cares about it, a lot of oil dripping from the pipe joints has accumulated on the ground.

But now the oil is smoking...

As soon as the watertight door was opened, the hot smoke couldn't stop escaping outward. After the smoke finally dissipated, the staff on duty found a black burnt trace running through the passage.

It is not accurate to say that it is scorched, because there is no open flame in it. Instead, the insulating material of those pipelines has been heated by a microwave oven, turning into liquid, and falling to the ground with smoke.

This also drills a hair into it, even if you wear a gas mask, it can't stop the hot rubber that keeps dripping.

The staff on duty picked up the interphone and prepared to report the situation. As a result, the intercom was just turned on, and there was a mess in the channel.

"I need support here. There are multiple pipeline pressure abnormalities."

"The pressure of the light water foam fire extinguishing pipeline is completely lost."

"There is also an abnormal data in the centralized control room."

"Report to the command center. The passage leading to the fire and damage pipe master pump room is full of foam. We can't get in at all."

"Pointing to... the command center... I seem to hear that there is something... hitting the compartment on the fire and damage pipe master pump room."

"The watertight door was cut open, and the cut was melted. It may be some high-temperature cutting equipment."

"God-something has stepped on this greasy dirt, this footprint can never be human."

"Enemy attack~"

"Hurry up and sound the intrusion alarm, and there is an enemy attack inside the cabin."

The series of conditions that appeared in the cabin ranged from the captain who had been fighting for twenty years to the sailors who had just served. They were all big girls who met on the head of the sedan chair. Heard it.

The cut marks of the watertight door that seemed to be grabbed by the hot claws, the non-human footprints left in the greasy maintenance tunnel.

In the passage filled with light water bubbles, there was a faint impact...

In less than three minutes, no less than twenty sailors gathered outside the passage leading to the fire and damage master pump room. But all of these people trembled their teeth one by one, where you stared at me and I stared at you, no one dared to step forward.

After another minute, Madix, who was in charge of this combat mission command, hurried over.

Behind him were dozens of heavily armed marines wearing breathing masks. They waded through the half-deep light water foam and moved to the crowd with one foot and one shallow.

These sailors lined up in two rows and blocked the otherwise narrow passage. When they saw the Marines coming with their weapons, they immediately swept back like a savior, exposing the watertight door full of terror risk. In front of Commander Madix.

Even on the way here, Madix has listened to enough reports, fully estimated the seriousness of the matter, and made sufficient preparations.

But when he saw the watertight door that fell on the ground, he still felt his calf trembling and the roots of his teeth trembling.

Here they are warships sailing at high speed and keeping radio silent.

This is a vast expanse of deep ocean, not the Middle East that is surrounded by enemies on all sides.

How did the enemy touch the ship?

How did the enemy quickly cut open the watertight door made of alloy?

The non-human footprints, and the faint crashing sound at the end of the passage...

Madix tightened his body armor tightly, and then slid sideways next to the passage to give an order, "Propelling towards the target area in a battle formation, no matter what you encounter, you must fire as soon as possible."

As the order was issued, dozens of Marines behind him immediately raised their weapons and lined up behind the first player holding a shield, hunched over. When the last Marine crossed the watertight door, Commander Maddix hurriedly notified all non-combat personnel to bring all fire fighting equipment to the ammunition depot and fuel depot for guard. All combat crew members were scattered to the handles of the entire ship’s passages, not letting go of any suspicious movements.

The enemy chose to destroy the fire and damage main pump room, which is absolutely planned and purposeful.

When the most important fire extinguishing system in a warship fails, the fuel depot and ammunition depot, which must never catch fire, will inevitably become the enemy's next target.

Reminiscent that for this combat mission, this guided missile cruiser not only filled the launch unit with ammunition, but also stored dozens of cruise missiles in the ammunition depot...

The power of those ammunition was enough to destroy this cruiser into scum.

Fortunately~

The ammunition in the missile launch unit can be fired out in an emergency within tens of seconds when encountering danger. There are no fuses installed in the ammunition depots, and they need at least two minutes of flame burning before fuel deflagration occurs.

Fortunately, although this is the most important fire extinguishing system in the ship, it is not the only one.

In the fuel storage and ammunition storage, there is also an independent emergency fire extinguishing system, which can provide a few minutes of emergency fire extinguishing before the main fire extinguishing system is fully involved in the early stage.

In addition, whether in the living area or the equipment area, there are always fire extinguishers and fire extinguishing sand at the corners of the passage.

No matter how bad these spare tires are, they are better than nothing.

As Maddix issued orders one by one, all the personnel inside the entire guided missile cruiser were mobilized. They either picked up fire-fighting equipment on standby or held weapons to garrison next to important facilities.

There are even decontamination personnel wearing fully-sealed chemical protective suits who have rushed into the ammunition depot and sprayed fire extinguishing agent on the ground and walls with hand-held water-based fire extinguishers.

However, just as Madix hesitated whether to violate the radio silence regulations and issued a warning to several other nearby warships, the marines who walked along, staring at the shield finally came to the door of the fire and damage main pump room.

Another watertight door was cut open, cut into a molten shape.

At this time, the fire extinguishing foam in the light water foam tank has flowed out, and the carbon dioxide storage tank has no longer neighed.

Each Marine’s helmet is equipped with a probe. Seeing that these players are afraid to enter at the door, Madix hiding behind yells GOGOGO eagerly.

No... I dare not enter!

Because just the second after the Marines arrived at the door, the clashing sound of the original Ding Ling Dang stopped in an instant, became silent, and seemed to lie dormant.

The strange atmosphere spread among the Marines.

Who knows what's dormant inside?

Being urged by the commander, there was no other way. One of the Marines simply proposed to throw a flash bomb into it before charging.

This proposal was implemented to the dual combination of flash bombs and shock bombs, and then the two Marines gently removed the latches and counted each other's fingers for three seconds.

Three, two, one.

At the end of the countdown, the two threw in the flash bomb and shock bomb at the same time.

The safety grip bounced off in mid-air, flash bombs and shock bombs smoked in mid-air.

However, just between the electric flints, these marines who were about to turn their heads to avoid the glare, clearly saw from the periphery, from the half-person-height fire-fighting foam, a white knife with a brightness comparable to a flash bomb suddenly appeared. Light.

The knife light draws a Z in the air. When the knife light disappears, the flash bomb and the shock bomb are all divided into two...

"Ghost...Ghost!"

"DaDaDa~DaDaDaDa~"

Amid the shouts and the sound of assault rifles firing, the white knife light flashed again.

The shouts of the Marines holding the shield at the forefront stopped abruptly. First he looked at the shield with his hands broken in half with a bewildered face, and then at the cut open on the chest, and the bulletproof plug with thick smoke. board. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word, because he felt that his body seemed to be lit by something.

The companion behind him yelled and dragged him to the bulkhead, pouring bullets into the disappearing foam like a knife.

The foam flew horizontally, and the sound of metal crashing was as dense as raindrops.

The magazine was quickly emptied, but before they could replace the magazine again, the foam that had been calm in front suddenly boiled.

A jet of water sprayed out from there.

The water jet pushed away the foam and hit the metal ceiling above, dumping everywhere.

A Marine was sprayed all over, and he subconsciously licked the drops of water on his lips.

Familiar saltiness.

It is sea water.
