Chapter 472 - 472 Heart of the Ocean
472 Heart of the Ocean
This scene was undoubtedly extremely humiliating.
The old chief was burning with anger. He immediately gave the order to open fire and entered a combat-ready state. He treated the monsters as his enemies and launched a heavy assault on them!
At this moment, the aircraft carrier formation was charging forward at full force. Their attacks were like a tidal wave, and the monsters were forced to retreat.
“Chief, bad news! We have to retreat immediately. There’s an extremely dangerous anomaly ahead!”
Just then, the nuclear submarine discovered a major situation in the deep sea and quickly sent a message.
The old chief was caught in a dilemma after he received this crucial information.
Those watching the live stream could see everything. If the cruiser fell but failed to exterminate the monster, how would they face the people when they returned?
However, the nuclear submarine must have discovered a secret under the sea. What kind of accident had happened at the bottom of the sea to make them issue such an urgent warning?
At this moment, Wu Mo advised, “Chief, it’s better to listen to the suggestion from the nuclear submarine. If something happens, it’ll be even harder to explain to the people!”
Feeling helpless, he could only make a bold decision.
The old chief ordered the aircraft carrier formation and next-powered aircraft carriers to stop all operations.
Not long after, the top half of the nuclear submarine finally surfaced as it quickly approached the mothership.
Once they reached the mothership, they immediately retreated to the base.
“What happened?”
Seeing the commander of the nuclear submarine step onto the deck and enter the command center, the officers crowded around him with confusion on their faces.
The commander’s eyes were still filled with shock as he reported to the old chief, “Chief, the nuclear submarine’s detector shows that there’s a huge hole about seven thousand meters below the sea. The infrared fluctuations in the hole are intense, and it’s likely a monster’s nest!”
“So that’s what it is. Did the movement on the surface of the sea trigger them? Is that why these hundred-meter-long giant beasts have been emerging?”
The old chief suddenly realized that the nuclear submarine’s warning had not been a false alarm. They had done the right thing.
Who knew what kind of creatures were in the monster’s nest?
Even if there were no bigger monsters, how would they deal with the present sea monsters?
They had already sent an aircraft carrier formation to defend against them, so they could not send more forces.
Wu Mo provided suggestions, and although the old chief was not entirely on board, there was nothing else he could do.
“D*mn it, if we weren’t at sea, we would have killed these monsters long ago!” an officer said angrily.
However, what could he do?
The sea was deep and vast, while humans were extremely fragile before it.
Using the sea as a natural barrier, the monster horde and humans fought endlessly!
After he returned to the base, Wu Mo made plans to build a super deep-sea detector.
This detector would be named the Heart of the Ocean. This meant that it would be placed at the center of the sea and play a huge role like a heart!
As one of the most important organs in the human body, the heart was responsible for delivering blood to all parts of the body.
The Heart of the Ocean would also become the core of the ocean information network. It would automatically collect, match, and filter information before speedily sending it back to the command center.
Once the Heart of the Ocean was completed, their surveillance of the sea area would reach an unprecedented level of security.
At that time, no matter how many sea monsters appeared in the area and no matter whether their nests were hidden at the bottom, everything would be exposed.
“The Heart of the Ocean’s development must be completed within a week. Wu Mo, are you confident about this?”
When he learned of Wu Mo’s plan for the Heart of the Ocean, the old chief immediately agreed and set a seven-day deadline.
It was undoubtedly a challenge for Wu Mo to develop the Heart of the Ocean in seven days.
He needed to check the system’s progress before making a decision.
The Deep Sea Eye research project had come to a head, and his previous research had yielded little results.
A few of the Deep Sea Eyes had already been destroyed by the sea monsters, so the Heart of the Ocean’s development was especially crucial.
“Chief, seven days is definitely a tight timeframe, but I’ll try my best.”
Wu Mo nodded and did not make any promises.
Nevertheless, he devoted himself to the development of the Deep Sea Eyes and Heart of the Ocean. He worked hard to upgrade them to a higher level.
In his mind, the height of the Heart of the Ocean would be about seven stories.
Once he threw the Heart of the Ocean into the sea, it would become a core component in the sea around the southeastern coast. It would deal a fatal blow.
The key to fighting the sea monsters was information. They could only strike first and annihilate the sea monsters one by one after they obtained first-hand information.
“Have you heard? Chief Engineer Wu wants to develop the Heart of the Ocean. Once it’s completed, it’ll provide all weather and a 360-degree surveillance of the southeastern coast. No movement will escape it.”
“Heavens, it covers such a large area! What exactly is the Heart of the Ocean? It’s hard to imagine!”
“Haha, is Chief Engineer Wu the one keeping you guessing? His research always shocks the world. Let’s wait and see how magical the Heart of the Ocean is!”
The researchers on the base were all looking forward to it.
When they learned that the Heart of the Ocean was about to be released, they were all amazed.
A few days passed, and everyone wondered whether the Heart of the Ocean was ready.
Two days later, the Heart of the Ocean was successfully developed.
When they saw the Heart of the Ocean, everyone was shocked and tongue-tied.
Oh, my God, it’s so tall!”
Everyone stared at the huge object as if it was a majestic skyscraper standing in the middle of the square.
The scale of this device far exceeded that of the previous Deep Sea Eye and its upgraded versions. This made people sigh. How did Wu Mo develop such a magical device?
“Will burying such a huge piece of equipment deep under the sea really not attract the sea beasts?” an officer asked doubtfully.
However, data on the Heart of the Ocean soon appeared.
Its information accuracy was up to 99.5%, with only a 0.02-second delay, and its coverage was up to a thousand nautical miles!
All kinds of data showed that the super Heart of the Ocean was indeed as firm as a stabilizing needle. Once it was placed at the center of the shipwreck site, no creature would escape its surveillance.
“Wu Mo, you’ve succeeded again.
“This super Heart of the Ocean will be secretly transported to the area of the wreck and released,” the old chief said.
Wu Mo had never disappointed him.
After the Heart of the Ocean was successfully transported to the shipwreck area, Wu Mo received a message from the Institute of Special Biology.
Life First had spread to thousands of people. However, among the thousands of people, three people experienced abnormal symptoms.
Their lifespans were extended, but they did not look much younger.
Wu Mo personally visited the Institute of Special Biology and met the three people who experienced no change in appearance.
Life First did not seem to be effective enough in their bodies.
“Chief Engineer Wu, this is their physical data reports.”
“After some comparisons, we found that these three have the same blood type, but the blood types of all the other test subjects were different from theirs.”
“This means there’s a bug in the Life First medicine!”
“Oh? A bug? These three people have a different blood type from one thousand different people?”
Wu Mo looked at the report in surprise and shook his head.
Life First was supposed to be universal. If individuals with this blood type could not enjoy the benefits, it would go against his original intention.
“Don’t worry, I’ll modify Life First. You guys can continue promoting it,” Wu Mo said.
