MTL - Monster Factory-Chapter 1379 : Retreat steadily

The water column is like a huge fountain.

The water column, which is thicker than a human, rushes directly into a straight line. If it is not a metal ceiling above, one will wonder whether it can be sprayed to the highest point of the warship.

The Marines fled back, some of them subconsciously wanted to close the watertight door to stop the seawater, but for a long time they only touched the stubble left after the watertight door was cut.

In the event of a water flooding accident on a warship, there are a series of corresponding damage management operations. These operations will also practice drills from time to time on weekdays, so the Marines will subconsciously close the watertight door and want to open the drainage system.

The watertight door was cut off, which is not unacceptable.

But why is there such a serious leakage in the fire and damage master pump room?

The fire-fighting and damage pipe master pump room is located in the middle and lower levels of the cabin, away from the bottom of the ship, and separated by a maintenance channel and watertight compartment.

Not to mention how many enclosed compartments there are, but with a height difference of close to five meters, how did the seawater get here from the bottom?

Sea water appears here, can it prove that the area below has been completely filled?

The Marines retreated while reporting what had happened to them. At the same time, they tried to find watertight doors to prevent the intrusion of sea water.

After passing two damaged watertight doors in a row, the Marines finally encountered an intact watertight door when they met Commander Maddix at the other end of the main maintenance corridor.

In addition to Madix, behind the door there was a row of sailors who were going to go in to repair the fire extinguishing system. It's just that now they can't have the chance to repair them anymore. While waiting for the Marines to rush through the watertight door, the two of them work together, closing the watertight door with a bang, and turning the valve crazy.

The sea chased them under their feet, and was finally blocked mercilessly in front of the watertight door.

Seeing this group of lost courage and panic on the special forces, Commander Madix's originally tense poker face became slightly ashamed.

He has just received a report from the sailor guarding the passage at the lower level; with the number 063 watertight compartment as the center, the nearby compartments 065, 066, and 067 have all seen large-scale infiltration.

In less than two minutes, seawater filled these compartments and poured into the same road.

The watertight doors of the lower compartment are usually closed, and this action also prevents the seawater from rushing into the entire lower compartment.

But as long as you think of the watertight doors that have been cut off, no one can guarantee that the water-incoming compartment will continue to expand.

Inside the entire warship, orange-yellow alarms flashed everywhere.

The warship that had been advancing at full speed was also forced to slow down because of water in the lower cabin.

...

What are you afraid of?

Closing the watertight door is not the only way to damage the pipe.

After the watertight door was closed, the crew immediately started draining the leaky compartment.

But the drainage system hadn't started yet, and after a while the pointer jumped around completely.

then……

Behind the watertight door in front of Madix and the Marines, there was a trembling noise at this time.

Less than a second after the abnormal noise, a small orange dot suddenly lit up on the watertight door. Just when people thought it was someone's flashlight hitting it, the orange-red dots immediately began to expand and melt, and then a crescent-shaped white cutting knife emerged.

The blazing white light bloomed in front of everyone, and with the metal distortion, they subconsciously covered their eyes.

"Run~"

"The monster is catching up."

"Just...it was it, it slashed our flash bombs and cut Lance's shield and body armor in half.

Thinking of the assault rifle that emptied the magazine, thinking of the flash and shock bullets that were cut apart, and the terrifying power of a knife that broke the armor, these marines started to retreat one by one.

They feel that it is not that they are not brave enough, but that the enemy is too unknown and powerful to harm it at all.

No one could have imagined that the Marines would be deserters. Madix wanted to stop them, but couldn't stop them.

The only armed force became a deserter. Looking at the watertight door that had been cut open for the most part and began to seep water, Madix could only order the retreat with trepidation.

The crowd ran away in a swarm. They ran to the next watertight door and closed the watertight door again. Then, without stopping, continue to repeat the actions of retreating and closing the watertight door.

Officer Madix retreated all the way to the combat command room located below the tower.

The atmosphere in the command room was uglier than Maddix's face.

Seeing that the commander of this joint fleet operation, Madix, came, the captain and heads of several departments all gathered around.

"Your Excellency, there is an unpredictable danger inside the cabin. I think we must abandon this combat mission." Captain Carroll saluted him with a serious face, and said hardly: "This is us. With the unanimous decision of several departments on the ship, I feel that our ship simply can't support the mission start time."

The ship is the life of the captain, as well as the home and companion of the nearly four hundred crew members on it.

Except for those missions that involve victory or defeat at the strategic level, no mission can be premised on sacrificing this glorious history ship.

If it weren't for the order, Captain Carol and his subordinates would have nothing to do with Maddix.

"Can't give up." Maddix was equally tough. "I don't want to repeat the meaning of this combat mission. Could it be that because an unknown enemy came on board, he gave up on revenge for his companion and destroyed the enemy's overseas base opportunity?"

"Then tell me what to do?"

"If you don't retreat, let the monster cut open all our watertight doors little by little?"

"We can only use firearms in the cabin, but firearms can't hurt it at all."

"Now that five watertight doors have been destroyed, we have no choice but to retreat and retreat to the sea, so that we don't have to worry about the risk of sinking the ship."

Captain Carroll kept asking, not only Madix saw the scenes of the Marines encountering in the lower compartment, but also in the combat command room.

The blazing white knife light that seemed to be able to cut everything, the unknown figure lurking in the liquid and unaffected by bullets, made them wonder if the monsters in the science fiction movies had crossed here.

That unknown enemy probably came from the giant beast industry.

Anyway, the overseas factory of Behemoth Industry was built there, so I'm not afraid to find the culprit to settle the accounts.

"Even if it sinks, you must launch all the missiles before sinking." Madix has only the mission in his eyes. As long as the missile is launched, the mission is not a failure.

In other words, after several ships were assembled and successfully destroyed the overseas branch of Behemoth Industry, they paid the price of sinking a guided missile cruiser.

It is far less powerful than being beaten by the enemy now, and it has caused the mission to fail, and the responsibility is much smaller.

He is the commander of this operation, and he will bear the greatest responsibility if he fails.

"If you insist on performing the mission, then I request to lift the radio silence and report our situation to the superior." In the hearts of Captain Carol and the crew, the ship is the first.

"No." Madix vetoed again.
