In less than three seconds, five plans for capturing the submarine were presented to Ye Chen.
He carefully examined these plans and assessed their success rates. After careful evaluation, Ye Chen finally made a decision.
He chose the safest option and then ordered Zhizi: "Execute Plan One."
Zhizi quickly replied, "Yes, Master."
As Ye Chen gave the order, the engineering robots lying dormant in the trench were awakened.
Then, several crab-like multi-legged robots quickly emerged from their hiding place and swam toward the submarine.
This is the first wave of engineering robots. They were originally used to cut building materials, but now they are being sent out to prioritize cutting off the submarine's communication antennas and torpedo tubes, so that the submarine cannot contact the outside world or will desperately launch torpedoes.
These robots are controlled by Sophon and are equipped with various professional cutting tools, enabling them to perform challenging tasks in marine environments.
Soon, the robots approached the submarine, dispersed, and adhered tightly to the submarine's outer wall. Their two front claws began to work, quickly severing the submarine's antenna and sonar system and destroying the torpedo tubes.
After the first group of robots completed their tasks, the second engineering robot also set off.
This robot is much larger than the first batch of robots. It is shaped like a beetle with a huge drill on top. Its main purpose is to open up mountains and dig tunnels. It is very tough and powerful.
With a series of violent actions, the robot quickly drilled the propeller into several pieces.
When the second robot damaged the power system, one of the first robots swam straight to the submarine's vent valve, curled up, and crawled inside, blocking the vent valve with its body.
The submarine immediately lost power and was stuck in place, unable to move forward or backward, and unable to even surface.
Meanwhile, inside the submarine.
After the first wave destroyed the sonar and antennas, the people inside became blind and deaf, completely unable to know what was happening outside.
James, an experienced submarine commander, calmly ordered in the face of this emergency: "Reduce speed, halt, and wait in place."
Then, he picked up the internal walkie-talkie and instructed: "Each unit should check the operation of the module it is responsible for."
Soon, reports came from the communications officer and the torpedo launch room that all sonar, antennas, and torpedo tubes had been damaged.
James immediately realized something was wrong; this was definitely not damage from a collision, but rather something deliberately sabotaged.
There are special forces soldiers operating underwater outside!
"Chief mechanic, repair the damaged parts immediately." He instructed the chief mechanic while directing the submarine to move forward again and get out of its current predicament.
He had been to this trench many times, and the terrain was completely memorized. In front of the submarine's location, there was a straight section that was 1 kilometer long. According to the submarine's current position, as long as he was lucky, he could get rid of the enemy.
The submarine had just started and had been traveling for less than half a minute when suddenly there was a series of banging sounds, and the submarine's speed gradually decreased until it finally came to a stop.
Then, the crew member in charge of the propulsion system reported: "Commander, the propeller is damaged and the submarine has lost power."
Upon hearing this, James's heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed drastically. He knew he was in deep trouble.
At this point, he disregarded the risk of exposure and hurriedly shouted, "Quick, surface!"
We must get back to the surface immediately, otherwise, everyone will die in this iron coffin underwater.
Although James reacted quickly, his hopes were soon dashed.
The submarine stopped after rising less than three meters. The outlet was blocked by a foreign object, and the water in the sump could not be discharged.
"Commander, what should we do now?" Inside the submarine's command center, everyone was pale-faced as they looked at James.
"Can we send divers out of the capsule now?" James asked calmly.
After inspecting the damage, a crew member shook his head and said, "The trench where the submarine is located is too deep, and the torpedoes and the launch tubes of the submarine's firing ports are damaged, so we cannot send anyone out of the submarine!"
“Then we can only wait for rescue, or…” A hint of shame and indignation flashed across James’s face, and he reluctantly uttered two words—to be captured!
Then he instructed, "Deputy Commander, you are now in charge of shredding the classified documents."
After saying that, he turned and left the command cabin, heading to the captain's quarters.
As soon as he entered the room, James took off the key hanging around his neck, took out a pair of heavy pliers from the drawer, and without hesitation cut the key into several pieces. Only after confirming that it could not be put back together did he put down the pliers and plop down on the bed.
This key is the controller for the nuclear weapons on the submarine; if it falls into enemy hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, once he realized that things couldn't be resolved peacefully, he immediately returned and destroyed the key.
Now that the cleanup work has been completed, all we can do is wait quietly for the final result!
Thinking of this, James sighed, raised his right hand to make the sign of the cross on his chest, and prayed silently!
Inside the Dream Cloud Pavilion.
After seeing through the video carried by the robot that the US nuclear submarine was almost completely under control, Ye Chen finally relaxed.
To be honest, he took a huge risk in deciding to capture the nuclear submarine. Although he destroyed the launch port immediately, it would be a tragedy if the people inside the submarine went crazy and detonated the nuclear warheads on the spot!
The tsunami caused by the nuclear explosion could cause severe damage to coastal cities in China!
It seems the submarine commander is a rational guy, which makes dealing with the people inside the submarine a bit of a headache for him!
It's easy to kill them all. Just leave this submarine here for ten days or half a month, and everyone inside will starve to death.
However, this is not in line with Ye Chen's style. He is not a serial killer, so how could he do such a cruel thing!
We can't kill them, but we can't just let them go either.
Otherwise, if his capture of the US nuclear submarine were exposed, Earth might not tolerate him!
"Then this is the only way: hypnotize them."
A cold glint flashed in Ye Chen's eyes as he ordered, "Zhi Zi, manufacture two hundred sub-controllers. Also, give Sun Jia Hui an order to build a large-scale brain-computer interface device on Nanbo Island."
With the successful development of biochips, brain-computer interface devices are now more powerful and can be used to alter memories and control thoughts when used in a targeted manner.
This has been proven in Su Yingrong's case. In less than half a year, her mind has been completely controlled by Ye Chen, and she has become the most loyal maid!
