Chapter 292

Arthur stone didn't look worried and said, "those things are formed under a special magnetic field, but there must be a real thing behind them. As long as we avoid the real thing, our submarine will not be physically damaged. However, it's hard to predict the impact on the safety of submarine equipment and personnel under the interference of strong magnetic field."

"What's that thing you're talking about?" Ivan asked.

Arthur Stone said, "it's a pyramid."

"Pyramid?" Boris widened his eyes. "Are you kidding? We are now on the edge of the South Pacific Basin. Are the Maori descendants of the ancient Egyptians?"

"Do you know where we are now?" stone asked.

"Of course." Boris glanced at the chart and positioning system. "Now it's about 150 degrees west longitude and 30 degrees south latitude, the eastern edge of the South Pacific Basin, and a little further north to tubuai island."

Stone nodded and said, "you can imagine, if there is a straight line from us to the center of the earth, where is the other end of the earth?"

Boris had a globe in his mind. He imagined a straight line passing through the center of the earth from their position and muttered, "the corresponding longitude and latitude is 30 degrees east longitude and 30 degrees north latitude. It should be..."

He searched his memory. For those who run on the sea all year round, they can remember the location of each island, but they have little geographical knowledge of the mainland.

"That's Egypt," Ivan said.

Boris seemed to think of something and said, "don't tell me that the pyramids in Egypt fell from the other side of the earth."

"It's not as like as two peas, but they made the same thing on the other side of the globe," Stone said.

"Who did this?" Boris said curiously. "I don't believe the Pharaohs would come to Polynesia in warships."

"It's hard to say. Maybe they made those stone people on Easter Island," someone said.

"Come on, you said Stonehenge. I still believe that Easter Island is OK."

"But Easter Island is not far from here. What miracles are there in the South Pacific? Didn't the same group do it?"

……

Everyone said a word. Only Ivan didn't speak. He looked at stone and knew that he probably wouldn't say more news. Anyway, if something happened, none of the people in the boat could run away.

"Ivan, the magnetic interference is getting stronger and stronger. They are getting closer and closer to us."

"Drive at full power, go in the direction of weak magnetic interference as far as possible, and rush at full speed," Ivan ordered.

"Do you want to float to the surface first?"

The speed of this old submarine is much slower than that of modern submarine. If it can float to the surface and sprint again, the speed will be increased by at least three knots.

"It's too late," Ivan said.

"OK, full speed."

At this time, everyone stopped joking and looked ready. Even Boris put away his joking expression and angry temper.

The submarine headed for the place with the weakest magnetic interference at the speed of 13 knots.

If someone can see the deep sea at this time, they will find that in the deep blue sea, a circle of transparent inverted pyramid objects with light blue light are suspended in the sea like icebergs.

A dark old submarine, like a huge whale, silently hit those strange things.

Those floating inverted pyramids are also moving and merging at a very fast speed, which seems to devour the submarine.

"Ivan, the magnetic detection is completely disordered. We seem to be surrounded by a strong and disordered magnetic field!"

"Fortunately, in such a magnetic field, our instruments and equipment did not fail!"

"Ivan, sonar detection is responding. There's something ahead!"

"What?"

"It's an iceberg!... no!... it's not an iceberg, it's a pyramid, an inverted pyramid! It's the same as those seen on the sea!"

"Turn the rudder! Avoid it!"

"Yes, left rudder 25, forward three!"

……

"Ivan, we can't seem to avoid it. It's still right in front of us!"

"Could it be another one?"

"No, the sonar shows only one."

"..." Ivan looked at stone, but stone was lost in thought.

"Almost, Ivan!"

"Turn the rudder again!"

"Twenty left rudder!... Oh, my God, it's still there!"

"Back, emergency back three!" Ivan made a temporary decision.

"Yes, emergency retreat three."

……

"That guy seems to be following us!"

"Leave it alone and keep going back!"

"Yes, keep going!"

"Yo ho!" the person in charge of sonar detection cheered, "it seems to get rid of it."

The crew were happy and no longer as nervous as they were just now. But Ivan did not relax at all. How could a giant suddenly disappear from the sonar detection?

Sure enough, the person in charge of sonar soon shouted in panic: "it's behind us!"

Ivan immediately ordered, "turn the rudder, enter three urgently, and move forward at full speed."

The crew followed the orders. Although they are all veterans, the submarine keeps changing speed and direction, which makes the people in the boat feel the surge of Qi and blood. After all, this has not happened for many years. Ivan looked at stone and found that there was no change in his face, as if he had just had breakfast at the table.

"Ivan, it's ahead!"

"Torpedo it, Ivan!" Boris roared. "It's too late to get any closer!"

Ivan also had no way, ruthlessly ordered: "launch torpedo!"

"Yes, launch the torpedo!" Boris became excited and his face turned red.

The speed of torpedo is much faster than that of submarine. The speed reaches 40 knots, that is, the speed per second is about 20 meters. According to the sonar detection, the distance from the thing just changed back is about two kilometers. You can hit the target in less than two minutes.

But after only a minute or so, the sonar observer exclaimed, "it's dodging!"

"What?"

Can this thing hide from torpedoes? That means it's manned or intelligent. Such a big thing, suspended on the seabed, can sail in 900 feet of sea water at a speed of about 12 knots. Which country made this wonderful submarine?

The crew were puzzled.

Ivan doesn't want to do so much, because if he gets closer and passes a safe distance, launching a torpedo again is tantamount to suicide.

"Boris!" Ivan roared, "launch all the torpedoes for me, covering the 60 degree angle up and down in front of the submarine. See where he's hiding?"

"All right, Ivan! You're so kind!" Boris shouted excitedly.

The submarine kept adjusting the torpedo firing angle, and all the remaining 13 torpedoes were launched.

……

"Damn it!" cried the sailor in charge of sonar.

"What's the matter?"

"That guy is gone!"

"What?"

"Not only is that guy gone, but our torpedo is also gone!"

"How is that possible?"

"Is the sonar broken?"

"Yes... Possible. But..."

"But what?"

"It's like, it's like torpedoes are back... Thirteen... Yes, it's our torpedoes... Oh, my God, our torpedoes are coming towards us! They're going to attack us!"

"What are you talking about?" Boris yelled.

"Get away!" Ivan also yelled. It's not fun to be hit by a torpedo. You know, the torpedo exploding underwater is much more powerful than the missile exploding on the ground. A torpedo can scrap a destroyer.

"We can't avoid it, Ivan! Thirteen torpedoes come from thirteen directions and block all our routes."

There was a dead silence in the command cabin. Only the sonar detector gave a beep alarm. Thirteen green points were displayed on the instrument screen, approaching the center.
