Chapter 782 Lightning Skull
As the world's leading super cargo ship, Kunpeng has the most complete watertight cabin and automatic repair system.
However, when there is a monster under the sea that attacks the hull frantically, no matter how tight the defense is, it cannot prevent the hull from being torn apart like a matchbox.
"The automatic repair system has failed!"
"There is a problem with the power system and the whole ship is being powered off!"
"Engine 2 is overloaded, and the engine 4 is exploded, and we lost half of our power!"
"We are sinking... no... we are being pulled into the deep sea by it!"
The panic screams plunged the bridge into the abyss of despair.
The captain, who has experienced many battles and is as nerve-wrought as copper and iron, never moved in the stormy waves, is still unwilling to give up the opportunity to struggle dyingly.
He ordered the first mate to lead the team himself, lead an elite force to go deep into the bottom of the cabin, and manually turn on the repair system.
However, when the first mate rushed into the waist-deep seawater with a team of terrifying sailors, what awaited them was not only the fiercely poured sea water, but also...
The first mate hasn't come back for a long time.
A scream came from the communicator.
The screams were quickly covered by the noise, followed by "gurgling, gurgling", like the sound of bubbles in the swamp.
When the second team of mentors and rescuers arrived at the bottom of the cabin, they did not find the first mate and the first sailors, only seeing a thick layer of plasma floating on the sea water.
You can still see bright red handprints on the bulkhead that has not been completely submerged.
That was when the humans were torn to pieces, slapped the bulkhead hard, leaving the last trace.
Kunpeng continues to sink.
Being hit by the waves or something, the metal fatigue sounds coming from the hull are getting more and more harsh and louder.
The "squeak" sound was like the whistle of the god of death.
"Boom! Click!"
Even the weather is causing trouble.
It seemed that the appearance of a monster disrupted the dynamic balance of the magnetic field of the heaven and earth. The storm that had gradually subsided became violent and evil in an instant.
Lightning and thunder followed one after another, and lightning struck the crew's faces, almost tearing their hearts apart.
"Look, look!"
At this time, a crew member covered his heart and pointed at the porthole next to the bridge in panic.
His voice was more distorted than that of the woman who was giving birth.
Everyone looked along his trembling fingertips and saw tentacles ten times thicker than pythons, spreading up against the porthole.
These tentacles are grotesquely dark purple, covered with suction cups and bone blades, and are also filled with extremely corrosive mucus.
Although all the portholes of the Kunpeng are equipped with reinforced glass, which can withstand the strongest storm waves. They are winding by these tentacles, and are still corroded and smoke is still emitted, "crackling", and large spider-web-like cracks burst out.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Outside the porthole, there was a dull sound of impact behind the bulkhead that everyone could not see through.
The sound was like the drumstick of the Demon King of Hell, hitting everyone's hearts heavily.
With each impact, the metal bulkhead on the bridge protrudes inward.
At a moment, dense bulges appeared on the surrounding bulkheads, like the fangs of an invisible demon.
The monster's tentacles completely wrapped around the bridge.
It seemed that it was not in a hurry to drag the Kunpeng into the deep sea, but to hold the cat and tease the mouse mentality, or a person who was not too hungry, slowly opening the can, pursuing a certain sense of evil ritual.
"ah!"
Finally someone couldn't stand it, so he picked up his weapons, rushed out of the bridge, and came to the deck.
—— Rather than saying that they are desperate and willing to die, they are better to say that they cannot bear such cruel mental torture before they die, and decide to end the fate of this horror movie in advance.
These days, seas are unsafe. Super cargo ships such as the Kunpeng are all affiliated with shipping companies with deep background and strong influence. They can use the military's resources to militarize the freighter and carry a large number of individual heavy firepower equipment.
The deck of Kunpeng has reduced the space of about a thousand containers and eight rapid-fire cannons have been installed.
Set in the arsenal next to the bridge, there are also enough heavy machine guns, grenades and bazooka.
Most of the crew members have received militarized training, and many sailors were originally veterans of the Navy and armed themselves to their teeth as soon as possible.
However, when they held heavy machine guns, carried rocket launchers, or climbed up the turret from the passage under the deck, and saw the true face of the monster, they all experienced a few seconds of heart paralysis.
Then he was sadly aware that the "heavy firepower" in his hand might be no different from the toy that fired toothpicks.
This is a round monster with a diameter of more than thirty meters.
The length of the sixteen tentacles with fangs and claws is ten times more.
It looks like a mutant of some kind of giant octopus or king squid, but it looks even more ugly and hideous.
On the dark purple torso, there are pools of continuous flowing light spots, like human facial features, which can form a rich expression.
But most of the "expressions" are like a grinning skull.
"Boom! Click!"
One lightning after another fell from the sky.
It was as if it was attracted by this monster, and it all fell on its torso.
However, not only did the monster not be bombarded into black charcoal by lightning, but could absorb the power of lightning and "recharge" itself.
Its tentacles dance more intensely, and the skull that covered the entire torso also looked more and more mysterious.
“Yes, it’s it!”
All sailors who saw the true face of the monster couldn't help but shrink into a ball.
"It's the 'Lightning Skeleton'!"
They moaned in pain and exhaled their last trace of strength.
Not all monsters have names, many monsters only have one number.
The monster has a name, which means that it has frequent contact with humans and has left an extremely deep impression on humans.
Generally speaking, it will never be a good impression.
"Lightning Skeleton", a soft-body tentacle monster, with a body length of about 30 meters (not counting tentacles) to 300 meters (calculating tentacles), and its weight is unknown.
It has extremely fast submarine speed, and its waving tentacles can cut off fishing wheels with displacement of thousands of tons in the middle. It has extremely strong cell repair and rebirth ability. Even if the tentacles are cut at the same root, it can recover as before in less than a month or two.
In addition, it has at least a superpower to manipulate current, which can release high-voltage arcs with attack distances of hundreds of meters. Combined with its tentacles that are already 300 meters long, the attack range is extremely terrifying.
In the indigenous languages of the South Pacific, it also has a name called "Qichilis", which means "the demon who descends with lightning."
Over the past year, Lightning Skeletons have been operating in the waters south of the equator, having contacted the human fleet at least seven times, destroying twelve human merchant ships, a destroyer, a frigate, two rescue helicopters and an armed helicopter.
According to marine biologists' speculation, the lightning skeleton is very sensitive to the sound of propellers in human ships. The ripples caused by the propeller stirring the sea water may be like a sharp noise like metal scratching glass, which is absolutely unbearable.
Therefore, it is extremely dangerous and only has a ferocious beast with strong desire to attack the human ship.
Especially three months ago, it hit a human naval escort fleet, and two tentacles were broken by a deep water bomb. It suffered a great loss and became extremely cruel and bloodthirsty.
Before the tentacles could grow again, it retaliated and attacked repeatedly, and further damaged many human merchant ships.
In response to this threat, the Navy also sent additional escort fleets to launch a hunting and anti-hunting pursuit battle with Lightning Skeletons in the South Pacific.
Unexpectedly, this crazy and cunning demon fled to the "Eastern Bermuda" north of the equator without a sound, and jumped out of the encirclement of the human navy!
"Boom! Boom boom boom boom boom!"
The sailors were completely desperate when they discovered that the other party was a lightning skeleton.
However, human beings, even in the most desperate abyss, will not give up on their pursuit of hope.
Even if you have no hope, you must bring hope to more people and more compatriots connected by blood.
"Brothers, come on, even if you die, you will still blow up a few tentacles of this beast!"
"The Navy is encircling this beast. As long as we can delay it for a long enough time and cause heavy damage to the beast, it will not be able to escape!"
"The Navy Brotherhood avenges us!"
With the mentality of burning all the jades, the sailors fired fiercely.
All the eight rapid-fire cannons turned to the Lightning Skeleton, and they were not willing to fire at the tentacles that were ravaging it and destroying the hull. They aimed at its torso and shot angry and hot shells.
