The cold sea water appears a deep blue-black color through the observation window of the submarine, like the gaping mouth of a giant beast.
Mou Xuan's heart beat against his ribs again and again as the submarine shook slightly.
The failure of the navigation system was like an invisible noose, tightly strangling his breath.
He knew better than anyone what it meant to deviate from the course - lose direction, run out of fuel, and eventually be buried at the bottom of the sea.
What’s worse is that those guys from the Zhou Group are still roaming around like sharks that have smelled blood.
"Navigator Wu Shenhai, how long will it take to restore navigation?" Mou Xuan's voice was low, trying hard to restrain his inner anxiety.
"Report to the captain, the system lines are severely damaged and need emergency repair, otherwise..." Navigator Wu Shenhai's voice trembled slightly, and he did not say the rest of the words, but everyone understood that otherwise it would be a dead end.
"Liu Qian, the submarine engineer, check the lines immediately!" Mou Xuan made a prompt decision.
Liu Qian, the submarine engineer, checked the lines with a serious expression, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
A few minutes later, he raised his head and said in a heavy tone: "Captain, some lines have been damaged by humans and need to be repaired immediately, otherwise..." He also did not finish his words, but the unfinished meaning was even more shocking.
Man-made destruction!
Mou Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and a surge of anger burned in his chest.
It seems that the Zhou Group is determined to stop their deep-sea expedition.
But Mou Xuan is not someone you can easily mess with!
"Liu, submarine engineer, work with me to repair the navigation system. Chen, deep-sea explorer, Zhang, deep-sea biologist, and Li, deep-sea resource collector, be prepared for defense. Zhou's people may attack again at any time!" Mou Xuan's voice was as cold as ice, with an unquestionable majesty.
"Yes!" the three responded in unison and quickly entered combat status.
Inside the submarine, Mou Xuan and submarine engineer Liu were working intensely in the small space.
The flickering lights shone on their faces, reflecting their tense expressions.
Every line and every component is related to the life and death of everyone.
At this moment, the submarine shook violently and the alarm sounded shrilly.
"They are coming again!" The voice of Deep Sea Explorer Chen came from the communicator with a hint of nervousness.
"Hold on!" Mou Xuan growled, and his hands moved faster.
He knew that every second was extremely precious now.
Outside the diving boat, a fierce deep-sea fight is taking place.
Deep-sea explorer Chen is indeed an experienced explorer. He uses the weapons of the submarine and the complex terrain around him to skillfully deal with Zhou's divers.
Deep-sea biologist Zhang and deep-sea resource collector Li also showed amazing courage. They hid behind huge reefs and fought back against the enemy from time to time.
In the deep sea, the roar of weapons, the alarm of submarines, and the rolling sound of the sea water are intertwined to form a thrilling symphony of death.
Mou Xuan felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest. While nervously repairing the line, he listened to the sounds of fighting coming from the communicator, and his heart was extremely anxious.
He knew that if the navigation system could not be repaired as soon as possible, they would be trapped here and become trapped by the Zhou Group.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the diving boat became more and more tense.
Liu Qian, the submarine engineer, began to tremble slightly, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead.
"Captain, there is only one last step..." Liu Qian, the submarine engineer, had a hoarse voice.
Mou Xuan took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm.
He glanced at the flashing indicator light and his heart sank.
The indicator light was flashing faster and faster, which meant the navigation system was about to fail.
"Hurry!" Mou Xuan growled, and his hands moved so fast that only the afterimage could be seen.
At this critical moment...
Mou Xuan's heart was beating like a drum in his chest, and every beat seemed to be striking a tense note.
On the repaired navigation system screen, the green route clearly pointed to the target sea area, but this clarity could not dispel the dark cloud hanging over his heart.
He knew that this brief calm was just the calm before the storm.
"Wu Shenhai, has the route been confirmed?" Mou Xuan's voice was low and hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor.
"Confirmed! We can set off at any time!" Wu Shenhai's answer was concise and powerful, and he tried to infect his companions around him with his determination.
But even he couldn't completely hide the lingering worry in his eyes.
Although the previous battle successfully repelled the divers from other forces, the submarine was not unscathed.
The several hideous scratches on the hull, like the claw marks of wild beasts, silently tell of the cruelty of the battle.
What is even more disturbing is that the eyes of those divers as they retreated were full of resentment and resentment, like poisonous snakes lurking in the deep sea, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.
"Chen Shenhai, are the results of the hull damage assessment out?" Mou Xuan turned to look at Chen Shenhai with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"Not very optimistic," Chen Shenhai took off his diving mask and frowned. "The outer armor of the ship is damaged in several places. Although it does not affect navigation, the defense capability has been greatly reduced. In addition, our energy reserves have been consumed by nearly one-third."
Upon hearing the news, Mou Xuan's heart sank.
The reduction in energy reserves means that the duration of their available weapon systems and defense systems will be shortened, which is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger in the subsequent voyage.
