Chapter 459 Falling into the Deep Sea (2)

"Some structures at the front end of the warship have experienced high temperatures."

"Warning, the shielding force field is running low on energy and will soon shut down."

"Warning, the shielding field has failed."

"Warning, the battleship's energy sequence is about to shut down, and we are trying to restart the energy core."

"Error, the energy core cannot be restarted, trying to start the backup energy core."

"Error, backup energy core cannot be activated."

"Warning, the battleship's shield sequence has been shut down."

"Measuring the battleship's speed."

"No available emergency landing site found. Current distance from the ocean surface is 3400 kilometers. Descent speed is normal."

"Warning, a large area of ​​thunderstorms has been detected, 14 kilometers away."

"Warning, policy to widespread extremely severe thunderstorm response."

"The battleship's energy system has shut down and is sending a distress signal."

"Error, signal transmission failed..."

As the stealth warship entered the atmosphere of this huge liquid planet, the friction caused by the warship entering the atmosphere caused the entire ship to shake violently. Anything that was not fixed, whether it was objects or bodies, was shaken off the ground by the violent shaking. As the violent shaking continued, the warship's system continuously issued alarms. As the shaking of the warship continued, the energy core of the entire warship finally stopped working. The warship lost all protection and power, and the ship began to fall from the heavier tail.

According to the information obtained by the battleship's scanning module before it shut down, the battleship was about to fall into the thunderstorm belt in the planet's atmosphere. Although the battleship itself had lost all energy and the observation panel had failed, coupled with the influence of the strong thunderstorm magnetic field in the nearby thunderstorm belt, Han Zu was unable to see the situation outside the battleship, but his perception ability wrapped in extremely strong energy was telling him that the battleship was about to enter the thunderstorm belt.

"Boom!!!"

With the faint sound and the ship's hull shaking violently again, Han Zu was able to judge that the battleship had entered the thunderstorm belt. The defenseless hull of the battleship was bathed in a deadly strong thunderstorm. Now Han Zu was caught in a very pessimistic situation.

His strong physique and abilities were enough for him to destroy the defenseless ship from the inside, and his flying ability allowed him to leave the falling warship, but the thunderstorm belt outside was huge, and his perception told him that the energy in the thunderstorm belt would also pose a threat to him. Since the range of the thunderstorm belt was too large, he could not use it. He had no way to connect to the offline equipment of the contractor's matrix to measure the exact size of the thunderstorm belt, so he didn't know whether he could fly out of the thunderstorm belt before being split into plasma ashes by the energy in the thunderstorm belt.

But if he chose to stay in the battleship, his strength was not enough to support the battleship, so he would be carried down by the weight of the battleship. If the battleship could not leave the thunderstorm before its structure was seriously damaged, the result would be the same as flying out by himself.

Even if the defense of the Tig's stealth warship is sufficient to pass through the thunderstorm belt, it will not end well if it falls from such a high altitude. Even though this is a liquid planet, falling into the sea at this altitude is actually no different from falling on concrete.

This is just a problem that Han Zu needs to face himself, not to mention that there is also Xin next to him who is suspected to have lost all his san value.

"Evaluating possible strategies... No usable results found."

The contractor's equipment was offline and could not perform extreme situation calculations, so of course there was no way to come up with any useful constructive countermeasures. Han Zu had an idea, which was to destroy the warship's hull and leave the interior of the warship before it fell into the sea and left the thunderstorm belt. However, the distance from the ocean below was too far, and Han Zu's contractor's equipment could not analyze what liquid the ocean was made of. If this liquid was extremely dangerous, then even if he escaped from the warship, he would eventually fall into the ocean due to energy exhaustion. At this distance, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the ocean below was definitely not made of water.

Han Zu wanted to open the protective plate on the porthole of the navigation room to observe the situation outside, but he could not leave the warship for the time being. So in order to avoid damage to the warship before it came into contact with the sea, he controlled his curiosity and did not do so.

The altitude was very high, so even if the warship was falling faster, it would take a long time to reach the surface. Although Han Zu had nothing to do except protect the unconscious Xin, he still thought that he couldn't really do nothing. So he began to use the contractor's equipment to check the structural integrity of the warship, trying to use this to calculate whether the warship would be directly smashed to pieces when it fell to the sea and collided with it, or whether it could survive such a horrible collision.

"Current battleship structural integrity: 93%."

"The energy interference is serious and it is impossible to calculate accurate impact data. We need to leave the thunderstorm belt and reduce the energy interference..."

"We have left the thunderstorm area and are recalculating the altitude."

"Scanning the ship's structure."

"The speed of the fall is being assessed."

"Calculating the angle of fall."

"We are measuring the location of the secondary damaged structure that may have occurred after the impact."

"Assessment completed. After the impact, the ship's estimated structural integrity: 74%, above the critical value."

"call..."

After calculations by the contractor's equipment, after the warship hit the sea, although the warship would be damaged to a certain extent, it would not disintegrate due to the violent impact. However, from the perspective of the warship's hull at this time, the position of the stern part of the ship was estimated to be smashed into pieces soon. But in general, the threat level was not too serious for Han Zu and was completely acceptable. This made him feel relieved.

"The stuff made by the Tigers is really strong. It won't be completely destroyed even if it is smashed from such a high distance."

According to the calculations of the contractor's equipment, after the fall, before the warship completely sank into the ocean, some parts of the tail would be broken down by the impact, and their fragments might penetrate other areas of the ship, causing secondary damage. The location of the navigation room was one of the places where secondary damage might occur. So for safety reasons, Han Zu grabbed Xin, who was in an abnormal state, put the helmet back on her head, and flew her out of the navigation room and began to head to the safe location on the ship after the impact calculated by the contractor's equipment. That was the vehicle garage located two floors below the navigation room.

Due to the previous shaking and the shutdown of the battleship's energy system, many hatches were locked and could not be opened. In order to be able to move smoothly to the safe area in this "iron coffin" full of corpses who died for inexplicable reasons before the collision occurred, Han Zu could only use the high-energy rays emitted by his eyes to quickly cut these locked hatches. However, because he needed to control the force to avoid destroying the structural stability of the battleship, Han Zu's speed of moving in the battleship was actually not very fast.

"We have reached the edge of the measurement area."

"Boom~~~"

Just before Han Zu was two hatches away from the target location, the space inside the battleship suddenly lost gravity for a short time, and a loud distorted noise appeared immediately, making him realize that the battleship should have collided with the sea below. Because the sound of the collision was too loud, it temporarily caused Han Zu's hearing to be affected. The abnormal humming inside his body made Han Zu realize that his body was being washed by the shock wave after the collision.

"Scanning target's vital signs..."

"Scan completed. The target's vital signs have decreased in activity and are now within normal levels."

Han Zu endured the uncomfortable buzzing feeling throughout his body and used the contractor's equipment to perform an emergency scan on Xin. Fortunately, she was not seriously injured, but perhaps because of the shock wave or the aggravation of her previous abnormal symptoms, Xin fainted.

“Hum! Hum!!”

"boom!!"

Not long after, several loud noises were heard again. Han Zu could see that the ship was slowly returning to horizontal from its vertical position. The gravity inside the ship also returned to normal. The shock wave and its negative effects were also disappearing. The ship had ended the collision and was sinking into the ocean.

"The current overall structural integrity of the warship is 63%, which is above the danger level."

"Liquid leaks are seen in multiple places at the rear of the battleship."

"Unable to close the hatch in the relevant position."

"It is expected to be completely..."

Although the warship "successfully" fell into the ocean, due to the huge damage during the collision, some parts of the warship's tail were leaking. Since the energy system on the warship was completely shut down, Han Zu could not use the contractor's equipment to remotely seal the hatches and prevent the warship from infiltrating. If this infiltration cannot be controlled, then in an hour, the space inside the warship will be completely filled with liquid from the ocean outside. So Han Zu now has to go to the hatches near the leak location that have not been closed and manually seal them to prevent the infiltration process.

"Locking available locations."

“The route has been planned.”

"The countdown for full penetration has been set. Time remaining: 54 minutes."

Fortunately, there are not many leaking locations, and the hatches at most locations are originally blocked. Han Zu only needs to take care of six leaking locations. He only needs to rush to the vicinity of the six locations and close the hatches at some locations. He also does not need to close the hatches at all six locations. Two leaking locations are in the same cabin, so in fact he only needs to close four of them to prevent the infiltration of liquid.

Time was running out, so Han Zu used the tentacles growing from both sides of his abdomen to fix Xin on his back, and then immediately began to fly at full speed to the four locations where the hatches needed to be manually closed. The process was relatively smooth, as three of the hatches were roughly in a horizontal line, and the leaks at those locations were not very serious, so Han Zu quickly sealed those three locations.

However, the last position is a bit tricky. It is the farthest away and the damage is the most serious. A large amount of liquid has poured into the nearby corridor, and the hatch that needs to be closed has been submerged in liquid.

After cutting off some tentacles, Xin was fixed to the ceiling of the corridor in a safe position. Han Zu began to use the contractor's equipment to scan the composition of the liquid. It seemed that he needed to enter the location flooded by the liquid. Before that, he had to confirm that his defense could support him until he closed the last hatch.

"Evaluation completed, liquid sample cannot cause damage to the host unit."

“Looking for available contrasts.”

"Process interrupted. Unrecorded liquid type."

Although the contractor's equipment could not distinguish the specific composition of the liquid, after comparing it with Han Zu's cell sample, this liquid was harmless to him, and Han Zu only needed to know this. So he dived directly into the area flooded by this liquid, swam to the target location, and closed the hatch. However, due to the previous secondary damage, a large crack appeared on the hatch. Han Zu needed to find some metal to weld the crack to completely stop the infiltration process.

This was a very simple task for Han Zu. He found some fallen metal plates from a place that was not flooded, cut them into the required size using high-energy rays, and then welded them to the crack of the closed hatch using high-energy rays.

"The infiltration process has been aborted."

"Huh! I can be a welder again, okay?"

The touch of this liquid is obviously completely different from water. It is thicker, heavier, and smoother than water. It is somewhat like some high-end lubricant. Although its color is also transparent, its flow state is somewhat like liquid metal, and its heat is similar to that of some higher-temperature hot springs.

After swimming back, or rather flying back to a position where he was not submerged, Han Zu lowered Xin, who was fixed to the ceiling of the corridor, and checked her condition with the equipment. She was fine, nothing was wrong.

After tying Xin to his back again, Han Zu prepared to find a position on the edge of the battleship to see what was going on outside. After all, Han Zu knew nothing about this liquid planet. If there was no solid seabed here, it would be a big problem if the battleship sank all the way to the core. Now that the battleship had fallen into the ocean and the infiltration position had been dealt with by himself, there was no need to be careful about the structural stability of the battleship, at least to a certain extent. So he decided to remove a protective plate from a porthole to see with his own eyes what the ocean environment outside was like.

"Boom~~~"

Halfway through the journey, Han Zu felt that the warship shook again, but this time the shaking was not violent, and after this shaking, the warship seemed to have completely stopped descending.

"Large-scale solid structure detected."

"It seems that this liquid planet still has a solid seabed, which makes things much easier."

After putting down the last huge stone in his heart, Han Zu completely relaxed and slowed down his flying speed. It didn't take long before Han Zu reached the edge of the warship. He removed a protective plate on the porthole and began to observe the ocean outside.
