Rebirth 09: Synthetic Male God

Chapter 996: The Wise Man Enjoys Water

The content of the second day was very gentle.

Except for the "Mercury Fleet" which was a heavy blow, the subsequent content was relatively routine.

The operations included "stealth cruise", "electronic jamming", and "formation change".

There are even some projects that are difficult for observers to detect and they can only hear a sound.

To put it bluntly, it is still costly to cause trouble at sea, and the budget for large-scale scenes is left for tomorrow's "sea-air coordination."

The only relatively special project is the "Project Six: Bionic Reconnaissance" in the second half.

In the "Mercury Fleet", on a frigate, two small holes opened at the stern of the ship, and dozens of "little things" were thrown down by mechanical equipment.

These objects sank quickly after entering the water and disappeared in the frigate's wake.

Just when the observers were puzzled, the broadcast prompted: "Please pay attention to the 2 o'clock direction."

Under the sea, several fish were seen swimming rapidly, and the observers were lying on the edge of the boat.

"Is that a shark? Or a dolphin?"

"No. Not that big, and it feels weird."

Zhou Tuo Rui came online, coughed lightly, and said, "This is our company's bionic reconnaissance equipment, also known as 'fish-like intelligent machinery'. It refers to the physiological structure of many kinds of fish and is used to detect the conditions on the sea surface."

Bionic fish intelligent machines are a very mature technology that has existed since the days of smart parks. They are used to clean water bodies and give tourists who litter a "water gun" shot.

What we have in front of us are military versions, whose main function is reconnaissance rather than attack. In fact, with a body length of about one meter, it is difficult for this little guy to cause any effective damage to modern warships.

But they have two wonderful functions. One is regional alert. They have a manta ray-like structure with slow speed and long endurance. They can use ocean currents and tides to generate electricity inefficiently and stay on standby in the sea for several months to detect intruding ships.

That was not shown this time because the pace was too slow. And there was no need to, it would be better to leave some surprises.

The other type is the "fast type" in front of us. Although they cannot attack, they have a more deadly function, which Zhou Rui calls "sticking".

For example, these in front of us have a maximum speed of 40 knots, which exceeds most large ships.

After discovering the target, it will dive directly into the waters under the ship and follow it, continuously sending feedback signals.

With the design and configuration of modern warships, there is no way to deal with a one-meter-sized tracking device under the ship, unless you stop and send divers to fight alone.
So even if they knew there was something under their feet, they could only act as if they were marked.

This mark not only marks the location, but can also assist in guidance and greatly increase the hit rate of other attacks.

The "shoal of intelligent fish" showed up on the side of the Lan City ship, then dived and disappeared into the ocean in groups.

Some observers imagined, if they were the captain of a battleship and saw these things lurking around, what would they do?
What to do? Run! The communication channel advised others not to be impulsive!

The drill on the second day ended quietly without any explosions, but it still brought a huge shock to the observers. It was probably another sleepless night.
The "Lanshi" turned around and headed back to Ryukyu, which was another two hours' journey.

All the observers were very tired as they had been on the deck exposed to the wind and sun all day. The key point was that they were not allowed to enter the cabin and were only allowed to move around on the deck.

On the way back, a few people sat directly on the deck.

It was a bit unorthodox, but no one said anything.

Bao Guilong walked over and found Zhou Rui playing with a lighter. He took out a pack of cigarettes and said, "Boss Zhou, would you like one?"

Zhou Rui shook his head: "I don't smoke much."

Bao Guilong didn't say much, he lit one himself and said with a smile: "Did you drink too much today? Mr. Zhou is very self-disciplined."

Zhou Rui: "No, I only smoke three cigarettes a year, and I've already smoked two this year."

Bao Guilong choked on his cigarette and said, "Ahem. This habit of yours is quite unique."

After a while, Bao Guilong said, "Mr. Zhou, how do you feel? This should be your first time on board a ship, right?"

Zhou Rui thought about it and it seemed like it was really his first time on a warship.

"Not bad, quite fresh and domineering."

After all, steel structures weighing thousands or tens of thousands of tons can still touch a man's heart.

Bao Guilong said: "Actually, I was a marine, although I changed to civilian work a long time ago. This time, all three families brought out some real stuff, but the navy stuff was the least."

Zhou Rui: "It doesn't matter whether there are more or less. What matters is whether it is effective. Stealth warships are already invincible." Among the three armed forces, only the navy equipment has been the only area in which Zhou Rui has not been involved. Although the "Grindstone Project" has covered ships, it is somewhat slower than the leapfrog progress of the Air Force and the Army.

However, Zhou Rui did not think the impact would be that great. In the process of "the new king ascending the throne", this was just a footnote.

The form of war changes with the technology. Naval warfare used to pursue "big ships and big guns", but now it pursues "D bullets and targeting". Traditional concepts such as tonnage and speed are no longer decisive factors on the battlefield.

Its radar is more advanced than yours, its D-bomb is more advanced than yours, and a 500-ton missile boat also has the opportunity to destroy a -ton aircraft carrier.

Even with the same functions, small size has more advantages, it is cheap and fast to produce.

Now, with the global strike capability of aerospace fighters like "Xingtian", even the tactical significance of aircraft carriers is weakened.

Our own navy is not stagnant. On the contrary, it is the fastest improving in the world, but it is slightly inferior to its fellow brothers.

Bao Guilong chuckled and said, "Maybe there can be more. If you have a chance, can you come to our Ship Equipment Research Institute? That is also the workplace of Academician Ma."

The word "workplace" is emphasized.

I mean, can the person be returned?
I am such a big electromagnetic master, am I going to become a permanent resident of Taicang, right?
Obviously, Bao Guilong was asked by some old leader to come and discuss something.

They can't come back even if they insist on sending people back. Regardless of whether Zhou Rui is tough or not, Academician Ma himself doesn't seem to have any intention of returning to preside over the work.
The joy here is not to think of the sea.
Zhou Rui thought to himself, "So he's waiting here." He didn't blush or feel nervous.

There are more than just Academician Ma Weiming detained in his Wanhu base, but this person really cannot be released, because according to the plan, he should start the "Moon Colonization Plan" when he returns, and the Electromagnetic Master is very important.

I could only evade the question by saying, "Academician Ma is a scientific researcher. Sometimes when inspiration strikes, it cannot be stopped! He is in a good mood and there is nothing we can do about it. But I will ask him about it later!"

Bao Guilong didn't know how much of it was true, and when he was about to continue talking, Zhou Rui suddenly whispered, "Pay attention to the person on your right, at the three o'clock position."

Bao Guilong remained calm, his eyes slightly glanced to the side. Not far to the right, an observer was sitting on the "ground", leaning against the side of the ship, seemingly exhausted.

Everyone was tired, except for him who was the most unruly. Bao Guilong had an impression of this man, the observer of the "barking" party.

Zhou Rui stared at the setting sun on the sea level and said, "His hands are tapping the floor."

Bao Guilong frowned, understood what Zhou Rui wanted to express, nodded secretly, and left from the other side without alerting the enemy.

Zhou Rui finally got rid of Bao Guilong and breathed a sigh of relief
Want to steal my electromagnetic master? Impossible!

It was dark when the Lanshi ship returned to Ryukyu.

When everyone got off the ship and were about to leave in their cars one by one, a member of the "barking" party was suddenly held by two marines, and he screamed in fear.

The two Marines were not polite either. In front of all the observers, they searched the other party's pockets and took out some unknown "residues".

This guy was really cruel. He actually used his fingernails to dig something out, although most of it might have been made of his own worn-out nails.

From a technical point of view, this doesn't make much sense, but it is very bad in nature.

The reason why he took action at the last moment was to allow all observers to bear witness.

The "barking" party member was taken away. What awaits him will probably not be "jail", but he will not be treated well either. It is also unclear whether the "barking" party can participate in tomorrow's content.

Zhou Rui and Bao Guilong looked at each other and got into their cars.

This whole day was quite tiring. My face was numb from the sea breeze on the deck.
In other words, he doesn't sweat much, while those observers' faces are almost wrinkled after being exposed to the sun and sea breeze all day.

I returned to the hotel, took the exclusive elevator and returned to my suite.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard the sound of a shower coming from the bathroom.

In any high-end hotel, the bathroom design has a bit of "visualization".

Behind the hazy frosted glass, two slender figures were playing around, and faint laughter could be heard.

Zhou Rui pondered for three seconds.
"Actually, I'm pretty sticky too. The most urgent thing is to take a shower first, despite all the difficulties."

Then seven seconds later, an uninvited guest broke in.

Soon, the "sweet laughter" turned into "sweet anger", and the "sweet anger" turned into "sweet cries".

It is said that the mountains are sharp and high, and the water is narrow and deep.

A wise man loves water, a benevolent man loves oil.
