Chapter 468 - 468 A Monster with Intelligence
468 A Monster with Intelligence
When Wu Mo stepped into the emergency medical center, and his heart was filled with endless worry.
Phantom Wolf had lost an arm in the battle. He was tormented by blood loss and fainting spells, as though he was wandering between life and death.
Fortunately, Phantom Wolf had strengthened genes flowing through his body, which made him a tenacious fighter.
Otherwise, he would have died long ago in the polluted seawater.
“Chief Wu, Phantom Wolf’s condition has stabilized. Although he still needs twenty-four hours to wake up, he’s out of danger,” adoctor in a white coat reported to Wu Mo.
Wu Mo let out a long sigh of relief. The heavy burden in his heart was finally lifted.
However, Phantom Wolf seemed to be more tenacious than they had imagined. After a short five hours, he woke up.
At this moment, Wu Mo arrived at the ICU and looked at Phantom Wolf, who had just woken up.
Phantom Wolf was expressionless as if he did not notice Wu Mo’s arrival. He stared ahead blankly.
“I don’t know how to comfort you, but I believe in your strong will. Even if you lose an arm, it’s not enough to defeat you,” Wu Mo said emotionally.
This seemed to touch Phantom Wolf, and his eyes finally reignited with fighting spirit.
“Chief Engineer Wu!” Phantom Wolf smiled bitterly. “I was a warrior, but now that I’ve lost my sharp weapon, how can I win glory for my country?”
Wu Mo pondered for a moment and said, “You are still the alpha wolf, even if you’re a one-armed alpha wolf. Haven’t you heard of a phoenix rising from the ashes? Perhaps this is an opportunity for you to train your One-handed Spear Technique to perfection.”
One-handed Spear Technique?
Phantom Wolf’s eyes sparkled.
“I have to pull myself together. I’m the one-armed alpha wolf! How can we be dispirited?” he said.
However, Wu Mo was not in a relaxed mood.
Nowadays, there were new updates to weapons with each passing day, especially the blue light automatic aiming device.
The One-handed Spear Technique was just a gimmick to reignite Phantom Wolf’s desire for life.
After Wu Mo left, the old chief called for a small meeting at the last minute.
Only Wu Mo and a few other elite officers, as well as some key department heads, were present.
There were no more than twenty people there, and the chief personally hosted the meeting.
A cold gaze played repeatedly on the projector screen.
It was a pair of eyes from the depths of the sea, filled with indescribable hatred. They flickered with a terrifying light in the dark environment.
The owner of these eyes was extremely intelligent and skilled at spotting the cameras. It seemed to know that someone had been using high-tech means to track it.
Driven by a strong desire for revenge, it deliberately looked into the camera to convey a message: The hatred between its kin and the humans would not dissipate easily.
Wu Mo could not help but ask, “Sir, how did you get this?”
“Wu Mo, something unimaginable has already happened. There were originally eight Deep Sea Eyes, but now only one remains. Only this one found their tracks and captured this photo.”
“What?! The Deep Sea Eyes were actually destroyed?”
The Deep Sea Eye was located about eight thousand meters below the sea floor. Its defensive outer layer was extremely hard, and the double-layered tempered glass provided multiple layers of protection.
The golden-scaled monster could actually destroy such powerful defense?
Moreover, the remaining Deep Sea Eye was preserved. Did the golden-scaled monsters do this on purpose?
Otherwise, why would they mock the remaining Deep Sea Eye?
“This is too terrifying! These monsters have already begun to show human intelligence, and the number of our discoveries are increasing. They definitely have a nest, and there are even more of their kind buried there!” an officer said through gritted teeth.
At this moment, all the elite officers were filled with anger!
They yearned to use war weapons to completely eradicate these monsters.
However, in the face of the vast sea and the elusive monster, an irresistible sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.
No matter how advanced the weapons and equipment of mankind were, they could only show off their power on land, on the sea, and in the air.
In the face of the bottomless ocean, the power of human weapons seemed insignificant.
Everyone present understood this, and the old chief was naturally aware of it.
He looked at Wu Mo and habitually asked for his opinion.
Wu Mo thought for a moment and suggested, “I heard that this live stream has caused a strong reaction among the people. They’re all petitioning for us to use our war weapons to kill the golden-scaled monsters on a large scale and return a peaceful world to them.”
Everyone expressed their agreement. This incident had attracted widespread attention.
Due to the absurd incident of Phantom Wolf losing his arm and the cruiser almost being controlled, the pressure from all sides was getting heavier.
Wu Mo also suggested, “Send a conventional nuclear powered aircraft carrier to patrol the area of the accident and within a thousand nautical miles.”
He paused and continued, “At the same time, deploy nuclear submarines to monitor underwater. Once any abnormalities are detected, fire immediately without hesitation.”
The officers all agreed, and their eyes were full of approval for Wu Mo.
At this critical moment, if they did not send out the nuclear powered aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, the situation would worsen.
The old chief agreed to Wu Mo’s suggestion and instructed him to continue developing more Deep Sea Eyes because one was obviously not enough.
Wu Mo accepted this difficult task. Even though he knew that the Deep Sea Eyes might be damaged again, he still did not hesitate to invest in research and development.
This was a project that did not care about the cost, and the returns might be minimal, but Wu Mo had no choice.
The research and development of the Deep Sea Eye was a long-term investment. If he could not conquer the sea, he had to constantly improve the research and development of his equipment.
In the face of the difficulties before him, he had to upgrade his stronger equipment to break through them.
For example, the Deep Sea Eye’s only weakness was its defense.
‘We can’t do that. We have to make its outer shell stronger. Otherwise, if we put it into the sea again and let those monsters destroy it, wouldn’t it be in vain?’ Wu Mo decided in his heart.
Thus, he sped up the pace of his development and upgraded the Deep Sea Eye to the Super Deep Sea Eye.
Its outer shell was extremely hard, and it was equipped with three layers of tempered glass for external protection. The interior was made of highly complex synthetic metal, which could filter all foreign objects in the seawater. It could clearly observe the external environment and had the strongest protection.
Within these two layers of protection, there was also a huge transparent alloy shield that tightly protected the Deep Sea Eye’s probe.
There were only a few tiny holes with cameras made of composite resin inside. They could withstand the water pressure at the bottom of the sea, and they would not be easily broken.
Observing the upgraded version of the Deep Sea Eye, Wu Mo felt quite satisfied.
Furthermore, the research and development progress of this Super Deep Sea Eye had already reached more than 90%, and it would be released soon.
At this moment, the arrival of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the sea area shocked many people.
Those who knew about it were guessing what was going to happen.
Was there going to be a large-scale exercise?
After all, this was a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. How many times had there been such a thing in history?
