450. Chapter 450 Mercenary Corps?



Jiang Yan turned her head and glanced at the direction of the ship's conference room. Many people were already walking towards it in a hurry.

"Jiang Yan." Ye Qing, with some sweat on his forehead, came out from the corner and just saw her. "Let's go together."

Jiang Yan nodded, "Yes."

When the two arrived at the conference room, it was already full of people.

Sun Jingtao, Kong Wu, Zhao Yougong and others also rushed over from other ships.

Mo Jingsheng glanced around with cold eyes, and after confirming that the core personnel were all there, he said, "Let's get started."

"Okay." Song Haitao stood up, and at the same time, a drawing appeared on the projection screen.

It was a cross-section of a warehouse.

The cross-section was surrounded by blue, and data such as depth and pressure were marked.

Jiang Yan knew that it was the underground warehouse where Rongcheng stored aircraft carriers and other materials.

The blue represented the seawater covering it at the moment.

Everyone was confused and concentrated their attention and waited for Song Haitao to speak.

"According to the current speed, we expect to arrive at Rongcheng No. 1 Warehouse in an hour. But now, we have encountered several problems. I will make it short.

I will finish speaking first. If you have any questions, please don't interrupt me. After I finish speaking, everyone can ask questions together." Song Haitao coughed lightly and spoke.

"1. The water quality monitoring results of this area are out. The degree of nuclear pollution is several times more serious than the areas we passed before; the degree of acidification is also more serious than other areas;

2. Because Rongcheng is close to the sea, there are a large number of mutant marine fish, including aggressive fish such as sharks;

3. The traces of eight-legged flying insects have been monitored nearby."

Song Haitao paused, and everyone took a breath of cold air.

The eight-legged flying insect was temporarily named by the scientific research team. It was the kind of flying and aggressive insect that made a "chi chi chi" sound.

"We can now preliminarily infer that the reason why ultraviolet rays have been increasing is related to the reduction of the ozone layer and the thinning of the atmosphere."

"So, it is very likely that the degree of nuclear pollution and acidification will become more serious with every day of time."

Everyone was stunned again.

"In addition to the above three problems, we are facing several new problems." Song Haitao took a sip of water and continued,

"1. The current sea level is higher than we previously speculated, which means that we will face higher water pressure when we reach the warehouse buried under the water.

The time the pumping chamber can hold out will be reduced, so please ask the construction team to speed up the progress during construction."

The warehouse in Rongcheng is underwater. If everyone enters and opens the warehouse, then a huge water flow will rush directly into the warehouse.

Therefore, there will be a special team to buckle a special cover, that is, the pumping chamber, at the door of the warehouse through the submarine construction process.

After Jiang Yan and others arrive at the pumping chamber by submarine, the construction team will use a water pump to pump out the water in the cover.

Jiang Yan and others enter the warehouse, return, enter the submarine, and then put the water into the cover.

Now, the water depth is far beyond the calculated range, so it is unknown how long this pumping chamber can withstand the water pressure.

In addition, since the eight-legged flying insects have been discovered, the danger level of construction at night is obviously higher than that during the day.

According to the plan, it was impossible for everyone to stay here for a night and wait until the next day to start construction.

"2. This area had many anchor buoys before the end of the world. But now, the number of anchor buoys that can be seen is extremely small. We have also arranged personnel to dive and check. They were recently destroyed." As soon as Song Haitao finished speaking, the originally quiet conference room was suddenly broken by whispers.

Jiang Yan's eyebrows sank, and Ye Qing beside her whispered, "Someone got there before us."

Mo Jingsheng glanced at everyone, and everything he saw was like a sharp blade with a cold light.

Everyone's pupils shrank and they closed their mouths instantly.

"This means that in addition to facing an increasingly harsh environment, we may also face enemies from the dark.

The enemy may be somewhere on the sea, or may have lurked in the underwater warehouse in advance, so--" Song Haitao paused and looked at Mo Jingsheng.

Seeing Mo Jingsheng nodded, he continued,

"In order to avoid artificial lights attracting unnecessary enemies and mutant creatures, we decided to arrange water operations immediately after arriving at the destination. The personnel participating in the operation in the warehouse will increase the escort team by ten people."

"The diving suits you wear are all specially made, with certain insulation, acid resistance and protection functions, but you must also avoid the situation where clothes and equipment are damaged and penetrated by water during construction and operations." "

In addition, the pressure on the seabed increases. According to our reverse calculation, it is expected that the pumping chamber can last no more than 1 hour. So-" Song Haitao looked at Jiang Yan, "The time to enter the warehouse and dock needs to be controlled within 50 minutes."

Jiang Yan: "No problem for me."

She actually packed things very quickly, just a matter of seconds.

However, what she couldn't be sure of was what the layout of this underground warehouse was like.

And whether it was smooth to enter the core area.

Unexpectedly, this national-level zero-yuan purchase was much more difficult than the zero-yuan purchases she had gone to before.

This is just the first stop.

After Song Haitao finished speaking, everyone started discussing.

Many of them were professional terms, and Jiang Yan only understood half of them.

Mo Jingsheng stood up and glanced at Jiang Yan, "Let's go, let's check the rest."

Jiang Yan nodded, "Okay."

Li Haoyang and Ye Qing also followed.

After entering the small conference room next door and closing the door, Mo Jingsheng said:

"In addition to our own soldiers, the higher-ups will also send several teams to several destinations independently to help us clear obstacles in advance."

Jiang Yan was stunned, thinking that all the things were done by the Yaoben base alone. "Do they know our treasure hunting route?"

"Yes." Mo Jingsheng said, his expression became a little solemn, "But according to the original plan, after the other party cleared the enemy, they would wait for us at the original place, or set up conspicuous buoys or something like that."

Sun Jingtao frowned, "So, Captain, you suspect that they have a problem."

Mo Jingsheng: "Yes."

Mo Jingsheng: "So, after entering the seabed, everyone must be extremely careful. They can't transport these heavy equipment such as aircraft carriers out now, so it is not impossible to stay here and wait for the opportunity."

Jiang Yan and everyone nodded.

Kong Wu stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "I wonder if other people have that storage artifact like Sister Yan?"

"No." Mo Jingsheng said firmly.

Logistics sent some hot chocolate.

Several people drank it.

They would have to go into the sea for work soon, so they couldn't eat too much. However, they couldn't be hungry because the situation was unknown.

Hot chocolate has high energy, which is much better than a meal.

Jiang Yan felt dizzy after drinking it.

Half an hour had passed, and several ships were close to the destination. They had all entered emergency alert.

The intercom suddenly rang, "Report, report, ordinary human and mutant human corpses were found! The time of death was about three days!"

Mo Jingsheng stood up suddenly, "Let's go and have a look."

Everyone was going to go to the deck to prepare for "going into the sea".

When they arrived at the deck, some professional teams responsible for hoisting and installing the pumping tanks were already busy on the deck in advance.

The temperature is still not high today.

But because they were wearing heavy protective clothing, there were beads of sweat on their foreheads.

Away from the operation area, several newly salvaged bodies were laid out one by one.

They were called bodies, but they were actually a pile of bones wrapped in debris.

The clothes and rotten meat on their bodies had been eaten clean by plankton in the water.

In addition, the corpse was exposed to ultraviolet light for several days, and the upper side seemed to be covered with a layer of coal dust.

Not only was it pitch black, but there were also some densely packed honeycomb-like holes.

When the few people walked over, Zhang Yongliang and several old professors were already there.

"These are mutants, and these are ordinary people."

There was no time to take samples and send them to professional instruments for testing. The current distinction was just based on the size of the body and limbs.

However, Jiang Yan noticed that the height of the ordinary person was at least about 1.9 meters.

Judging from the body shape from the bones, it looks a bit like a foreigner.

Mo Jingsheng squatted down and observed silently for a few seconds, then stood up and took a thin stick from Zhang Yongliang and pulled open the corpse of an ordinary person.

A black metal plate was exposed on the other person's neck.

Li Haoyang was stunned and said in astonishment, "Captain, is this someone from the mercenary corps?"

Mo Jingsheng pursed his thin lips tightly, and his face was more solemn than ever.

After a while, he said,

"The Rongcheng underwater treasure hunt plan is suspended. Jiang Yan and Dr. Song will stay on the ship for the time being. Ye Qing, Song Qian, you are responsible for protection."

Jiang Yan was stunned, "Then Captain, you--"

Mo Jingsheng did not answer, but ordered Li Haoyang in a cold voice,

"Organize the commando team to change into diving suits, and follow me into the sea in three minutes for exploration and secondary cleanup!" (End of this chapter)
