Chapter 1456: Chapter 474: We Must Believe in Science_2

Potato, in charge of connecting with Brother Ni, complained:

"Did you eat too much crab? If we’re discovered now, we’ll all die. If you want to kill us, just say it straight. And, are you sure that signal on the map isn’t fake?"

"Shut up, you damn chicken. I’ve been through battles, and with a radar sweep, I even know what kind of underwear that Hood chick is wearing."

"You have time to blabber, why not quickly check where the Black Ghost is."

"Heh."

Potato didn’t continue to speak, instead silently noting Brother Ni’s words, planning to report back and have the guy wash dishes comfortably for a month.

He asked in the channel:

[Potato: Arrived yet? I’ve been waiting so long the flowers are wilting.]

[Brother Ni: The saying is "Hope-Mountain kills the horse," soon, soon, soaking for almost two days. Even if it’s really the Black Ghost, he should be bleached by now.]

[Potato: Not necessarily. Didn’t you see the Little Mermaid soaked for years and still a Black Ghost? The Atlantic Triangle trade can’t wash off the Black Ghost’s color. What daydream are you having? How far exactly are you?]

[Brother Ni: Tens of kilometers, fastest should be an hour away.]

[Potato: So fast? I thought we had to wait till after midnight.]

[Brother Ni: You don’t know, along the way we changed so many water mine batteries, never stopped for a minute. When offline, we fixed ourselves to water mines and used bots for training.]

The water mine factory left by Frederick not only produces mines but also includes maintenance, charging, etc., a complete processing system worth billions.

[Potato: Thank you, alright, we’re already in position here, just waiting for you, will treat you to chicken stew later.]

After speaking in the channel, Potato intended to report but realized everyone was already tensely watching the big screen.

On the screen, the red dot belonging to Hood suddenly increased altitude, meaning Hood might be setting sail.

The Giant already contacted the command center:

"Hood moved, what now? Should we act now?"

Family Joy immediately responded:

"Act, don’t let it go regardless of whether it’s setting sail. Once it goes into stealth mode, catching such a good opportunity again will be difficult."

"If there’s a situation, let Brother Ni and the others surface ahead of time and speed up into the air. With modified propulsion fuel, tens of kilometers away should still hit."

Right now, no time to think about more issues, even if it means mutual destruction, Hood must stay here.

"Ship gun parameters calibrated, power device connected, ready to fire anytime!"

The Giant looked at Mongolian Toplaner on the second floor below the podium, they exchanged a glance and nodded.

"Permission to fire."

"Main Cannon One, fire!"

"Main Cannon Two, fire!"

Despite the electromagnetic cannon’s ugly appearance, automatic reloading and cooling systems were intact, just a bit rough-looking.

Ding—

The control system’s indicator light turned from red to green, while Polaris had its stealth mode lifted, revealing a hundred-meter warship brightly in the night sky.

Without the cover of stealth mode, Hood’s radar immediately detected Polaris.

When the foreign signal belonging to Polaris appeared on the radar interface, the technician froze, thinking the radar detected a friendly vessel, but after comparing other friendly signal positions, his face changed from white to red then quickly green, shouting:

"Detected Polaris signal, southwest direction, 240 kilometers from us!"

"Detected strong electromagnetic effect, opponent’s electromagnetic cannon is charging!"

Captain Charles was leisurely preparing to drink freshly brewed tea, but upon hearing the news, thought his ears were deceiving him:

"What? 240 kilometers! Isn’t that within friendly detection range? Why didn’t they alert earlier?"

The technician responded promptly:

"No idea, from the direction it’s Vasa, but they have no information at all."

Charles’ scalp tingled, he instantly guessed the opponent’s target was certainly himself.

But how could Horizon Corporation know he was there?

Even with Military Technology satellites, they should be interfered by European Space Agency’s anti-satellite weapons.

A series of questions almost stopped Charles’ heart, the tea in his hand spilled onto his luxurious Navy Admiral uniform, but he couldn’t be bothered:

"Fuck! Immediately activate force field shield, accelerate to prepare for impact!"

"Yes!"

Fortunately, maintenance was nearly complete, once the force field shield is activated, even if the opponent fires first, Hood’s armor and size should withstand several rounds of shots. That electromagnetic cannon looks cheap, the power definitely isn’t great!

Hood urgently maneuvered the ship, preparing to face Polaris frontally.

Boom!

Boom!

Two thunderous explosions sounded from Polaris’ deck, the blast wave from the cannon mouth even created a vacuum area, the immense recoil made Polaris’ hull tilt and tremble, and everyone in the control room felt the vibration.

Small boat pulling big cannon is right. I’m telling you, just like a small horse driving a big car—it’s a staple of the anime realm.

Cough...

Shells moved incredibly fast, with muzzle velocity reaching 32 times the speed of sound, even at over a thousand meters altitude, the airflow disturbance affected the lower sea waves, forming ripples.
