148: Chapter 148: Counterattack (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (52nd Update) 148: Chapter 148: Counterattack (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (52nd Update) Torpedoes, one after another, poured out and rapidly attacked the fleet, with the three rescue ships bearing the brunt of the assault.
“They’re attacking!”
Zhang Wenjing imdiately issued the warning.
Zi Qing swiftly entered commands, rapidly analyzing the attack trajectory of the incoming torpedoes and imdiately locking onto seven torpedoes barraging the ships.
“Launch the acoustic decoys, noise interference bombs, and CG-07 depth charges!”
“Yes….”
Zhang Wenjing and the others promptly responded.
In an instant, two rows of special depth charges were launched from the launch ports on the bottom of The Crane Orchid.
At this mont, torpedoes closed in swiftly!
Underwater, Zhang Ru looked at each of his comrades being pulled up, his face a complex tapestry of emotions.
If possible, he truly wished he could drown himself.
Unfortunately, his luck was too good; he didn’t die in the blast, and his swimming skills were too proficient.
It seed he wouldn’t be belching his last breath underwater.
“Big brother, let’s get on board.
Soaking in the sea for too long will contaminate our bodies, and then we’ll have to request a healing potion,”
Zhang Wei pleaded, his face begging.
Zhang Ru sighed.
Well, it was better to live a shoddy life than to have a good death, especially since the revival spark was even more expensive.
“All right.”
“That’s great, let’s swim over.”
Zhang Wei responded with excitent.
Just at this mont, torpedoes ca speeding in, one passing right by the seabed next to Zhang Ru.
Zhang Ru sensed sothing odd and dumbfoundedly looked down.
He hadn’t even grasped what was happening when—
Boom boom boom~~
Series of violent explosions spread outward.
The bottoms of the three rescue ships being assisted were hit instantaneously, and the comrades who had been climbing upwards fell down like kites with severed strings.
“Enemy attack!!!”
The struck ships were suddenly thrown into chaos, holes blasted throughout their lower sections.
The personnel aboard the ships staggered about, but they were, after all, an elite crew.
Quickly, each ship’s captain gave orders, sending repair teams to seal off the bottom watertight compartnts and to stop the flooding areas.
At the sa ti, they began a full-force search for the enemy targets, ready to counterattack.
Close to The Crane Orchid on the sea surface, a series of violent explosions also sounded, with massive waves bursting forth one after another.
The approaching torpedoes were intercepted one by one.
Inside the Soaring’s control room, the main ship of the First Legion, Sikong asked with a grave voice.
“Did the sonar system capture them?”
“We’ve captured the enemy, it’s an entire submarine fleet, with as many as fifteen vessels.”
“Report!
Except for the Soaring, our other three ships have all been attacked to varying degrees.”
“Report!
The enemy has launched a second wave of attack!
It’s too late to evade.”
…
A crew mber urgently reported.
“If we can’t dodge, then don’t dodge, unleash a full torrent of torpedoes in retaliation.”
Sikong slamd his hand down on the control panel, angrily giving the order, perhaps he had been too careless.
He never expected that the enemy would have the audacity to attack the Blazing Fla Guild’s fleet, then not leave nor resupply, but instead wait nearby and strike them with a stealthy blow.
Moreover, the sheer number of adversaries was horrifying.
If it were a Monster horde, it would be one thing, but if it were a group of players, that would be terrifying.
On the other hand, the Ambition was not faring well either; the fleet took a direct hit from a torpedo to the power section, causing a chain of explosions in the lower engine room, leaving the entire ship paralyzed.
Ye Wei was green with rage.
This first wave of a stealth attack had directly crippled two of her three ships; the one that went to rescue was the most violently attacked and had already started sinking.
Inside the command center of the Octopus submarine.
One observer after another reported: “Sir, the first wave of our attack hit six of the enemy ships, severely damaging three, and lightly damaging three others.
The second wave of supplentary attack has been launched!
We’re preparing for the third wave.”
“Report!
The enemy flagship, The Crane Orchid, has intercepted all of our attacks.”
“Concentrate firepower and wipe out that ship.”
“Understood,”
The personnel present responded in unison.
However, in the next second, a team mber reported in shock.
“Report, scanning a large number of high-speed torpedoes incoming at us!”
“Dammit, how is that possible!”
“Commander, what should we do?”
“Evade imdiately!”
No sooner had he finished speaking than a massive explosion swept through, violently shaking the entire submarine.
Everyone in the control room was thrown out, and the large vessel was broken in half as seawater poured in.
…
In the deep sea, a series of Swordfish-08 Torpedoes approached at high speed—The Crane Orchid had launched a counterattack!
Instantly, a series of massive explosions spread through the depths.
One submarine after another was hit!
The advantage of a submarine lies in the surprise attack; they had been able to strike so smoothly before because they were in a silent state, which even the best radar systems struggled to detect.
But after the first round of battle, not having significantly damaged The Crane Orchid, it was The Crane Orchid’s turn to strike back.
Its powerful and advanced weaponry now bore its terrifying fangs.
Just one wave of attack, and out of fifteen regular submarines, six were sunk on the spot, including the command submarine.
Inside The Crane Orchid’s control room, Zi Qing looked at the disappearing red dots and was also a bit dazed, the attack was unexpectedly effective.
“So cool, we took out six of theirs!”
Zi Die and the others exclaid excitedly.
“Report, the surviving enemy submarines are focusing fire on us and launching a third round of attacks.”
Zhang Wenjing reported calmly.
Chen Xijie spoke to Zi Qing, “Divert the ship to evade and release another wave of depth charges.”
“Let’s do that, wait until we intercept their attack, then hit them with a wave!”
Zi Qing imdiately adopted Chen Xijie’s suggestion and issued the command.
“Alright, kill those bastards!”
Lin Zinuo shouted excitedly.
The Crane Orchid’s engines went full throttle as it began to divert the ship and release depth charges once again.
Without any surprise, the enemy’s round of attacks was intercepted.
The weapons onboard The Crane Orchid completely crushed the torpedoes they had, and now The Crane Orchid unleashed another torrent of torpedoes in retaliation!
One after another, submarines were buried at sea.
Half an hour later, the enemy flotilla that ca attacking was annihilated.
On the deck, Su Mo gazed at the ships as they sank little by little, and he sighed.
The ships that were previously so bold now almost got wiped out.
Not counting The Crane Orchid, our side had a total of nine ships.
Looking at the current situation, at least five will have sunk.
Of course, they haven’t sunk yet; they’re just half sunk, and the remaining four aren’t in much better shape, having sustained damage.
Two of the ships were still emitting black smoke.
But the formidable combat capability of The Crane Orchid was indeed breathtaking, its firepower was nothing short of ferocious.
The torpedoes it fired probably completely outclassed those older model submarines; it was like a father beating his son.
In such a short period, it wiped out a group of battle-hardened ships.
Of the fifteen submarines, thirteen perished at the hands of The Crane Orchid.
But the credit also goes to Ye Wei and the others, who advanced the fleet to rescue people and just happened to shield The Crane Orchid in the front, absorbing a great deal of the firepower.
Otherwise, the enemy’s first silent attack wave would have been suprely annoying.
Knowing that if the enemy had focused their fire on The Crane Orchid in the first wave, the depth charges might not have intercepted everything, and we would certainly have sustained so damage.
Inside the operations room, Zi Die was excitedly cheering for the victory!
“We won.”
ps: The owed updates have been paid off!
Hehe!
