Chapter 172: Theresa (4000 words)
“It looks like they’ve done a good job.”
In another world, Chara floated in the air and looked into the distance, saying with interest.
Then he looked down at the glimmer of light in his eyes, and under the night sky, an endless undercurrent surged.
However, what Xia Ya was watching was not this sea, but a giant steel whale moving rapidly under the sea...
Three hundred meters below the sea, because it was night, the sea was silent and silent under the sunlight, dark and deep, as if there was some terrifying human-eating beast hidden in it, arousing the deepest fear in people's hearts...
Oops, a ray of light appeared in the dark deep sea, and a streamlined steel giant ship was galloping in the sea, as flexible and fast as a fish in water. There were two pairs of whale fins in front and behind the hull, like a giant whale in the sea.
This is a strong attack submarine ship, which does not belong to any country, but belongs to the international organization Miltino. It is this submarine ship that makes the Western Pacific Team the strongest combat power of Miltino.
The prototype is the Big Brother (overhead) "985 Project" large AS (mecha) transport submarine, which is fully loaded with an underwater displacement of more than 30,000 tons. In the end, it was abandoned by the North Devinsco Shipyard due to funding and technology issues. After approval by the state, it was dragged to the Arctic Ocean and sunk and scrapped. Later, it was "requisitioned" by Mithril Bank using political intelligence.
And after six years of modification under the design of "Whisperer" Theresa Testarosa and Banimolata, the ship became the most powerful ship in human history that can carry AS, VTOL fighter jets and helicopters, launch SLBM and AShM, dominate the seven oceans, and is the most powerful ship in human history: "Son of Dano".
The reason for the failure of the "985 Plan" is very simple. As a submarine, the "985" has no static density, is huge in size, slow in speed and amazing noise. It is simply impossible for such a submarine to secretly sneak into the rear of the enemy's defense line, so the plan was abandoned after completing the skeleton and pressure-resistant shell.
However, after being recycled and transformed by Mithril Bank, the "985" was given a large number of difficult-to-realize high-tech, costing more than US$2 billion. You should know that a 100,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier cost only about US$3.5 billion.
The heart of "Son of Dannu" is FMP, the leader of the "controllable nuclear fusion reactor" in the world's core technology of the energy revolution, "palladium reactor" (rare metal reactor).
This reactor has a larger output power while reducing its volume. Of course, it does not have the annoying noise of traditional pressurized water reactors.
However, due to the consumption of "palladium" as a reactor material, this reactor is only enough for "Son of Dannu" to run under the water for about six months (not considering the food supply of members).
In addition, the "Son of Dannu" was given the technology to surpass other submarines to become the queen of the sea, and it was the "Smart Skin" (SMARTSKIN) covering the surface of the hull, that is, the supermagnetic fluid propeller (EMFC).
It can arbitrarily change the flow direction of seawater on the periphery of the hull according to the left-hand theorem, and can be used to eliminate the turbulence caused by high-speed navigation, and can also be used to assist in maneuvering.
Of course, if you use EMFC alone, it will only have a speed of about 5 knots, but if you cooperate with traditional propulsion, you can reach an extremely high speed of more than 65 knots, and you can even run over ordinary torpedoes!
EMFC is the most important technology to change the "985 Plan". It allows the "Son of Dannu" to cross the seven oceans with its terrifying speed without anyone noticing to carry out scalpel-like precise strikes, and can also use maneuvers that catch the enemy off guard in close range.
This makes the ship have super combat power and performance that "as long as it has this meaning, it will be no problem to destroy the world."
However, because of this high performance, even the Western Pacific team's combat power cannot serve as an opponent for its military exercises, so they had to use the attack nuclear submarine of the beautiful national navy as a training (play with) target.
Speaking of Mithril, we have to mention its predecessor, "amalgam". In the summer of 1948, the grandfather of Old Mallory, a beautiful country's oil king, a big brother's scientist, a former SS officer, and a Japanese trader established amalgam in order to prevent war.
Five geniuses, five people with different ideologies, who only hope for the future of mankind and gather together.
People who should have been incompatible use one idea as a catalyst to combine with each other and guide the world in secret.
It is precisely because of this wonderful empire was named "Amalgam". For a long time afterwards, "Amalgam" opened a wide network and secretly added members.
The five founders also retired one after another, and repeated many changes. After 20 years of establishment and by the end of the 1960s, it had become a huge organization that had completely no grasp of the member entities.
With the continuous change of members, the original concept of the organization was not inherited. Organizations with lofty ideals as the starting point have deteriorated over time and eventually became ugly and bloated, becoming organizations that only aim for self-protection.
And old Mallory is the highest leader of amalgam
As the manager of this generation, Old Mallory has no actual control over amalgam. It is a completely titular title.
Seeing that the efforts of his father continued to fall, the grief and angry old Mallory established Mithril and used force to restrict the action of amalgam.
But unfortunately, even with the son of Danou, Mirsin's overall combat effectiveness is still much worse than that of Amalgam. Not long ago, Amalgam announced that it had officially started a war with Mirsin.
They took advantage of the renovation of Dano's sons attacking Merida Island, the headquarters of the Western Pacific Force. The Western Pacific Force suffered heavy losses and some of the remnants fled in Dano's sons.
The Western Pacific Fleet was isolated and completely blocked by amalgam, losing its base, so they could only stay in the ships and wander in the vast sea.
There was no startup capital, no place to supply supplies, but even this almost desperate scene, under the leadership of Theresa, the battle in the Western Pacific miraculously survived the most difficult period, and even made a counterattack on the amalgam...
And the current timeline is just after this counterattack...
"What a beautiful submarine ship..."
Xia Ya sighed, her eyes shining through the sea water of more than 300 meters, through the hull of the submarine, staring at a silver-haired girl in the tactical conference room of Dano's son.
"Sadly, we failed to catch the amalgam cadre Lee Fowler in this operation." Captain Teresa stood in front of a blackboard with her hands in her arms, and in front of a group of fleet members in green uniforms sat.
Richard Maducas, the deputy captain of the fleet, stood beside her in a military posture, with a burly and tall body looking very oppressive.
"It's obvious that I've played that..." Sergeant Cruz Weiba said helplessly with his hands on the back of his head, "It's true, why is it so hard work? Don't worry~"
Melissa Mao, who was beside him, punched him directly in the stomach, looked at Cruz who was covering his stomach and said unhappily, "The real hard work is Teresa, right?"
"But, we are not unsuccessful." Captain Belfgang Cluzzo, beside Melissa, spoke, "at least it proves that we are still capable of tying the enemy's army now."
"That's right." Theresa's voice was tender and firm, "and the Mirsilian companions lurking everywhere would be encouraged."
"Under normal circumstances, we have disbanded long ago, and everyone has worked hard to persevere." Teresa said, looking at everyone.
"Dissolve..." Cruz murmured in disbelief, "At that time... he was really desperate."
"After that, I informed everyone." Theresa said: "From now on, I will not pay you anymore, and it doesn't matter if I want to get off the boat. Did anyone respond at that time?"
"No one left." Melissa replied with emotion.
Speaking of which, Theresa Testarosa, who has not been introduced as a whisperer, is said before, all teenage girls were born on the same day, with the largest number of girls.
So for granted, Theresa is now in the age group with the strongest combat effectiveness in Japan, sixteen years old. Although she is young, she is a very high IQ as a whisperer. It is also because the designer of the TDD-1 is the person who knows the performance of the ship best.
Therefore, without actual combat achievements, he made an exception and was promoted to colonel as captain. He was questioned at the beginning, but after several actual combat, he won the trust of his subordinates with his strength. He was quite calm and mature when commanding the battle, and his clean silver hair and delicate face were known as a princess or a goddess of secret silver.
Since it is an international organization, many members of the Mitsubank are mercenaries who work for money. Everyone should be very clear about what it means to not pay a salary.
But Theresa is deeply loved by some "domains" in the Mithril. Basically, ninety-ninety percent of this ship is controlled by Tessa, and it has actually staged a story about what it means to use love to generate electricity (doge).
"It is precisely because of this that we can get to where we are today." Theresa said seriously. "Although it is a pity that this time the difference is a little bit different, we have a chance of winning. From Fowler's escape route, we should be able to calculate the whereabouts of Renard Testarosa, but it will take some time to analyze."
"About this," Cruz interrupted, "Why does that Renard...Treesa's brother think that important?"
"Because he is the key to our defeat of amalgam." Theresa said seriously.
"key?"
"Yes, amalgam is an extremely difficult organization. It is not an ordinary pyramid structure like the rest of the organizations. Instead, it does not have a top-shaped mesh command system like a spider web nest. Perhaps even they themselves don't know the whole picture of the organization. Even if they defeat their cadres, there will be others to replace them soon."
In fact, Mithril is actually part of this mesh system.
"In a sense, it is also a kind of democracy." Deputy Captain Richard sighed.
"Uh, so?" Cruz didn't understand.
"So this organization has no top leader, just like playing a game of endless moles," Belfgang explained.
"Then how can we fight against such an organization?" Cruise said with his hands spread out.
"There is no way." Theresa said, "If you regard the enemy as a whole, you will have weaknesses."
"Bio? That's a bit abstract." Cruz touched his head.
"So that's it." Melissa suddenly realized, "It's a virus!"
"That's right." Teresa nodded, then her eyes darkened, "If there is someone who can make this virus attack..."
Cruz seemed to realize something, stretched his neck and said, "Is it Tessa's brother?"
"It's obvious," said Theresa.
"Do you want to catch him and let him confess everything?"
Theresa closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then nodded solemnly at Melissa, "That's right."
"Even if you want to torture him?"
Theresa smiled unsurely, and then she said seriously to everyone.
"Of course, you can use any means!"
...
Da da ~
Theresa walked out of the conference room, and the low heel stepped on the steel corridor of the submarine ship.
"Teresa!" Richard followed from behind and was parallel to Theresa.
"Lt. Col. Marcadushi, what's wrong?"
"No, Colonel, I'm just worried about whether you're overworking."
Theresa closed her eyes tiredly, then opened them again, "It's okay, I'll go and rest immediately."
Richard's glasses reflect the reflection, making it difficult to see what he is thinking under the glasses. "That's good."
These days, the nerves on and off the ship were in a tense state, and as the captain, Theresa was at the center of pressure. She almost solved the problem of strategies and tactics and the supply of materials for the entire fleet. Richard knew that Theresa would never sleep more than three hours a day, not even three hours.
He also knew where the source of this pressure was, but he was powerless...
"Please wake me up in six hours." Theresa turned her head and said to Richard behind her, "I will leave the command of the fleet to you during this period."
"Yes!" Richard nodded and responded.
Theresa looked at Richard with concern, then walked into her room.
Richard closed his eyes and sighed softly...
...
The room was pitch black, and two sandwiches and two cucumbers were placed in the glass cover on the table.
There was no one around, and Teresa finally didn't have to force herself to support herself. She walked to the table tiredly, took off the glass cover and took out a sandwich and took a bite.
A strong sense of nausea surged up from the stomach.
"vomit!"
Theresa quickly ran to the bathroom and vomited out all the things she had just eaten. Her stomach is an emotional organ. When you are too stressed or unhappy, you will lose your appetite or even feel nauseous.
Looking at the water flushed down by the toilet, an unprecedented sense of fatigue eroded her heart. At this moment, she was on the verge of collapse...
She took off all her coat and lay on the bed. But as soon as she closed her eyes, the voice, appearance and smile of the mitral members who died in order to protect the retreat of Dano's son flashed in the girl's mind, making her turn around and unable to fall asleep at all. Time passed by minute by minute...
"If you can't sleep, why not go out with me to relax?"
The sudden sound was shocked, and Teresa suddenly shuddered. Almost instinctively, Teresa sat up suddenly, picked up the pistol at the head of the bed and quickly loaded it at Nadao's figure sitting in the corner.
