479 The Great War of the Sea Begins

The submarine’s commander quickly gave the order to pursue. He knew that this sea monster was the source of the disaster. If he allowed it to escape, he would not be able to explain himself.

Today, he had to keep this demon here no matter the cost.

The nuclear submarine pursued it at full speed. But the sea monster that was on the verge of death was still fleeing to the depths in a strange rhythm.

The submarine gradually lost track of the monster at the bottom of the sea.

The commander punched the instrument panel in anger. His face was filled with reluctance and defeat.

Just a little more, and he would have killed this demon.

When the soldiers returned to the base, their footsteps were heavy, and their expressions were gloomy.

Their fingers were trembling by the time they arrived at the conference room.

The confrontation with the terrifying sea monster had already left everyone with lingering fear.

The sea monster seemed like something in a science fiction movie, and it had terrifying abilities. Its huge wings were like steel blades, which it had pointed straight at the human armed forces.

All of this was an absurd nightmare.

At this moment, Wu Mo was surprised to find that apart from the Chinese military’s representatives, there were a few unfamiliar faces in the small conference room. They were obviously representatives from foreign countries.

“Everyone, this matter is no longer just a local emergency. These sea monsters have even swam to distant seas. Everyone has probably seen their destructive power, right?” the old chief said solemnly.

His voice was low and suppressed.

The representatives of the other countries nodded silently as they were at a loss for words.

Now, the sea monsters had become enemies with the world. All countries realized that China was not the only victim.

This was now mankind’s common responsibility. No one could predict what kind of threat these sea monsters would present.

They had already given the world a great shock.

“Chief Wu, can you design an undersea corridor where we can transport advanced weapons and attack these sea monsters from a close range?” a representative from abroad suggested. Wu Mo shook his head and turned down the suggestion. “It’s too difficult to build an undersea corridor. We’re not talking about a simple invention but an extremely complex large-scale engineering facility. It’s almost impossible with our current level of technology.”

Everyone sighed helplessly, as they knew that this suggestion was wishful thinking.

However, they would not give up if there was a small glimmer of hope. They wanted to try their best in dealing with this crisis.

“In this battle that concerns the fate of mankind, all representatives understand that no one can predict whether there will be similar monsters appearing in the future.

“We’ve noticed that the sea monsters have gradually changed from moving in groups to moving alone. This isn’t a coincidence.”

Another officer stood up and added, “Now that this six-winged mantis sea monster has successfully escaped our capture, we should mark it. Once this monster codenamed ‘Steel Six-winged Mantis’ appears again, we will gather all our forces to kill it!”

All of them accepted the officer’s suggestion. The terrifying sea monster was named the Steel Six-winged Mantis so that they could mark it.

“Although the number of Steel Six-winged Mantises is still unknown, I believe that there are definitely not many sea monsters as terrifying as them,” an officer said confidently. “We’ve already destroyed the sea monsters’ nest. It’s likely that there are only a few survivors left!”

However, Wu Mo had a different opinion.

He said, “It’s hard to say if the appearance of the Steel Six-winged Mantis is a coincidence. The nuclear bomb destroyed the Heart of the Ocean, and that’s our biggest problem now. It’s a great issue because our data on the seabed is now back to zero!”

For a moment, the meeting room fell silent.

Their hearts were heavy as they thought of a way to gather all their forces in the vast sea. They wanted to find monsters that were similar to the Six-winged Steel Mantis in advance.

In the end, Wu Mo gave a thought-provoking point of view. “Everyone, right now, our biggest problem isn’t how to find these monsters.”

They all perked up their ears as they listened to Wu Mo’s words. They were trying to understand what he meant.

Wu Mo continued, “Instead of searching for these monsters, we should concentrate all of our forces in one place. When the monsters appear, we need to take care of them as quickly as possible!”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wu Mo had undoubtedly pointed out the most critical problem.

Once the sea monsters appeared in the coastal cities, it would take a certain amount of time to defeat them no matter how quickly the armed forces gathered.

In the meantime, the damage they caused would be enough to overwhelm human cities.

Facing this huge challenge, everyone fell into deep thought.

Currently, the biggest technical problem was figuring out how to kill the sea monsters the moment they appeared.

There seemed to be only one way to solve this: Use nuclear bombs.

However, the nuclear bomb was both a sharp weapon that hurt the enemy and a tumor that hurt oneself.

They realized that the only way out was to invent a new type of weapon that could replace nuclear bombs and reduce the damage to human cities.

When Wu Mo proposed this idea, he received the support of all who were present.

After all, the power of such a weapon had to far exceed that of ordinary compound weapons.

This weapon would not completely replace nuclear bombs, and it did not necessarily have to be as destructive as a nuclear bomb in the process of defeating the terrifying monsters.

Basically, this weapon should not create complex pollution like a nuclear bomb. It should not make a city barren and endanger it for decades.

However, its research and development would undoubtedly be a huge burden for Wu Mo.

He had already invested a lot of energy into the research of Life First, the upcoming Life Second, and the Heart of the Ocean. Even if he used the system’s power, he could not create such a terrifying new weapon.

He knew that once this weapon was released, it would completely change the world.

In the past, people generally believed that only nuclear bombs could cause a destructive blow to a monster.

Now, if Wu Mo could successfully develop such a weapon, it would subvert this old notion.

Wu Mo had already included this mission in his schedule because he understood that it might be the turning point in destroying the threat of sea monsters.

“Bad news! Chief, there’s an urgent report from the front!”

All of a sudden, an intelligence officer rushed into the conference room in a panic.

He appeared flustered, and everyone present felt a sense of urgency.

The old chief quickly grabbed the document in his hand. He only took a short glance before his expression changed drastically.

“We’re living in troubled times! The time for humans to fight against the sea monsters has come!”

The old chief’s voice was otherworldly and filled with vicissitudes of life. Those who heard him were greatly concerned.
