"I can sink you at any time!"
(Translation: I can sink you anytime!)
Emerson stared at the red lettering on the torpedo and muttered to himself.
By the end, he could no longer suppress his fear and anger, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
The striking red lettering and the flowing, flamboyant strokes of the English text somehow conveyed an overwhelming sense of domineering power...
The atmosphere inside the ship's command tower was unusually heavy.
"Can anyone tell me how this torpedo ended up here?"
After a moment of surprise, Emerson broke the silence first, saying coldly:
"Don't tell me it appeared out of thin air..."
"General, I'm certain... just half a minute ago, this place was completely empty."
The aircraft carrier observer who first spotted the torpedo timidly explained:
"Besides, who could possibly carry something this heavy?"
The crowd was filled with surprise and doubt, and countless images began to flood their minds.
It seems an unseen ghost has appeared on the aircraft carrier.
He swaggered around in front of everyone, casually hanging up a hand grenade and launching a torpedo.
None of the people on the ship noticed.
The ghost's purpose is now clear: he is issuing the sternest warning.
"Watch closely, I can make the island invisible, disable your missiles, and sink any of your ships at any time."
......
General Emerson was furious at this blatant threat, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
He, who was already considering giving up, finally abandoned his last shred of resistance:
"Connect me to the Department of Defense immediately... no, connect me directly to the President's hotline."
The communications officer hesitated for a moment, but quickly dialed the president's military intelligence hotline.
Important figures like General Emerson, who were given orders at the front, had the right to speak directly to the highest levels of government during wartime.
Therefore, in the event of war, the president of the United States is the supreme commander of the armed forces and wields immense power.
"Mr. President, this is Vice Admiral Emerson from the USS Nimitz."
"Oh! It's General Emerson. Is everything going well?"
"Mr. President, there is a very special situation I need to report to you."
"Please speak, General."
Emerson cleared his throat and quickly organized his thoughts:
"Yes, Mr. President, just now, something incredible happened on my submarine."
"All the planes on the deck were found to have grenades attached to them."
"An MK48 torpedo appeared out of thin air in my command tower..."
At this point, Emerson's words were abruptly interrupted by the president:
"Wait, you mean someone silently placed a torpedo weighing over a ton on the aircraft carrier's conning tower?"
"Yes, Mr. President, everyone here saw it!"
As Emerson spoke, he hissed and threw the cigar end that had burned his finger onto the ground.
"General Emerson...you...are you sure you didn't see wrong?" The president's voice grew lower and lower.
Emerson mustered his courage, walked up to the dark green torpedo, and reached out to touch it.
The cold, metallic touch traveled down my palm.
This huge thing is real!
“Mr. President, I swear in the name of God, this is a torpedo!” Emerson said.
"Such a strange thing really happens? That's unbelievable!"
Clington's voice trembled slightly on the microphone:
"General Emerson, I will arrange for the CIA to come over immediately."
"I will inform the Ministry of National Defense about this situation."
"Also, protect the scene and be careful not to detonate the torpedoes."
Emerson rolled his eyes:
"Don't worry, Mr. President, this guy is still lying right under my nose!"
......
Eight hours later, the CIA Special Operations Division dispatched two helicopters, which landed directly on the USS Nimitz.
The on-site investigation and evidence collection went very smoothly.
After all, these bizarre events happen in full view of everyone, so no one can fake it.
It's understandable to hang grenades on airplane wings.
What puzzled the CIA agents the most was a MK48 torpedo that was nearly 6 meters long and weighed 1.6 tons.
How did it manage to slip past everyone and suddenly appear on the 20-meter-high island superstructure?
There is no explanation other than the caster possessing superpowers.
Combined with the intelligence gathered during this period, these inexplicable supernatural phenomena all seem to point to one Chinese person:
Lin Dong!
......
July 13th.
The Nimitz carrier strike group, which had spent nine days in the South Pacific, finally received orders to cancel its mission.
Emerson immediately commanded the fleet to retreat 3,000 kilometers without stopping.
The Independence carrier strike group, which had traveled a long distance, also received orders to return to port...
Thus, the crisis on the hidden island was temporarily averted.
Over the South Pacific, three low-orbit military satellites continue their 24-hour monitoring mission silently.
Although they can't detect anything.
But the more this happens, the more interested the United States becomes.
During this period, the CIA's Special Operations Division collected a great deal of intelligence related to the matter.
There is sufficient evidence to suggest that:
