#664 - Chapter 35 Interception (IV)

At this moment, inside the Triumph nuclear submarine, everywhere was filled with tense and busy figures. Various instruments and equipment flashed with light, emitting noisy sounds.

A technical officer rushed towards the captain with a worried look and shouted, "Sir, something bad has happened! Our torpedoes didn't hit the target, and now the enemy is accelerating its descent!"

At the same time, another sergeant in charge of sonar monitoring also shouted loudly, "Sonar detects aliens approaching rapidly, bearing 150, distance 915 yards!"

After hearing this news, the captain of the Triumph reacted quickly, decisively issuing an order, "Immediately release decoy torpedoes, loading torpedoes into launch tubes one and two, prepare to attack!"

"Understood! Decoy torpedoes have been successfully released!" With a response, small decoy torpedoes emerged from the submarine one after another, speeding towards the distance.

Immediately afterwards, two more soldiers reported loudly, "Report, sir! Launch tube one is loaded!"

"Report! Launch tube two is also loaded!"

However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the soldier who had been staring at the sonar screen exclaimed again, "Sir, something is wrong! The aliens are still approaching, currently at bearing 66, and a distance of 340 yards!"

The captain frowned, but remained calm, calmly commanding, "I know, fire torpedo one first, and then fire torpedo two after a five-second interval."

"Yes! Torpedo one is launched!" Along with this loud shout, a huge torpedo roared out of the launch tube.

"5, 4, 3...1, fire! Torpedo two launched!"

In an instant, the entire submarine compartment could clearly feel a strong vibration of water flow, as if a violent underwater earthquake had suddenly erupted. At the same time, the explosion sound that came from the ears was somewhat muffled, but it was deafening, making people's hearts beat faster.

The captain gripped the intercom tightly, anxiously asking, "Report the specific situation of the enemy!"

"Report, sir! The enemy is still approaching, currently at a distance of 250 yards, but the torpedoes we fired did not hit the target! Sir! Wait... that's not right! It has moved to directly below us, oh my god!" The panicked sonar operator shouted, his voice cracking.

The captain frowned and sternly scolded, "Calm down! Explain the situation clearly!"

The sonar operator's voice became sharp and trembling due to extreme tension, "Sir, the target has circled back from the right flank, now it is floating vertically upwards, not good! Its target is us, it's ramming towards us!"

At this critical moment, the captain demonstrated extraordinary reaction speed and command ability, he ordered without hesitation, "All personnel, immediately grab onto anything that can secure your body, brace for impact, prepare! Hard to port, full speed evasive maneuvers!"

"Only thirty yards left, everyone be careful, impact is imminent!" As the sonar operator's almost desperate cry sounded, the atmosphere inside the entire submarine instantly solidified into a deathly silence.

However, only a short second later, a earth-shattering loud noise was heard, and a deep-sea creature, like a ferocious beast, slammed into the side of the Triumph nuclear submarine.

In an instant, the entire nuclear submarine was plunged into a dizzying, violent shaking, and various ear-piercing alarms resounded through the sky, as if to shatter people's eardrums. Fortunately, despite suffering such a violent impact, the captain's last order ultimately played a certain role.

Although the submarine inevitably suffered heavy damage under emergency evasion, it at least successfully slowed down part of the impact force, and caused the submarine to be forced out of the turbulent sea after rolling several times.

"Honey, are you alright?" Liu Yuan hugged Vivian tightly, asking with concern. Then, he stared intently at the image of the severely damaged enemy submarine displayed on the screen, and said with a serious expression, "Immediately send them a warning signal, if they dare to chase after us again, then don't blame us for being rude next time!"

In the midst of the raging waves, the emergency-surfaced nuclear submarine, like a wounded beast, finally slowly stopped its frantic rolling after a fierce struggle.

However, the more than one hundred people inside the submarine suffered, they were battered and disoriented by this sudden change. To make matters worse, many people were bleeding from their heads due to the violent impact, and the scene was a mess.

The captain clutched his head tightly, blood gurgling from between his fingers, but at this time he couldn't care about these injuries. He glared with bloodshot eyes and roared hoarsely, "Damage control! Quickly check the condition of the submarine, and quickly count the casualties! And the engine room, how is it? If there is a problem there, we are all finished!" Inside the nuclear submarine's engine room is the nuclear reactor, if a leak occurs, all 100+ people on board will not survive.

As the captain's order was issued, the originally chaotic scene instantly became busy. The soldiers acted one after another, performing their duties and conducting a comprehensive inspection of the submarine. After a while, a damage control sergeant hurriedly ran over to report to the captain: "Sir, the engine room is fine, but the central pipeline system is severely damaged, and the thrusters are completely unable to start."

The captain frowned upon hearing this, and anxiously asked, "How long will it take to repair?"

The damage control sergeant pondered slightly, and then replied, "According to the current situation, it will take at least about three hours of emergency repairs to get the submarine barely running."

At this moment, the communications sergeant suddenly interjected, "Sir, I think you need to listen to this." Saying that, he opened an audio file. Only a low and threatening voice was heard from it: "Navy boys, don't keep biting at me. Otherwise, next time, I won't show mercy and sink your broken submarine!"

After receiving the warning, the navy had to temporarily stop its actions. The Ministry of Defense urgently issued an order requiring those ships that had rushed to support to immediately turn around and return to base.

However, the Triumph, having suffered heavy damage, was unable to return to port like other ships. Having lost its ability to navigate independently, it could only float quietly on the sea, helplessly awaiting the arrival of a professional rescue team to tow it back to the shipyard for a full repair.
