Half Blood-Red, Half Deep Blue!
I saw this eerie laser beam piercing through the deep sea.
At that moment, even Arthur himself couldn't believe the sarcastic remark he had just made.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and he swallowed hard.
Beneath the cold, deep surface of the Antarctica sea, it seems there really are Dragon Country submarines!
Even if it's not a submarine, this laser targeting method is clearly a prelude to an underwater Military Ordnance attack.
"Damn it, could it be that Dragon Country's submarines can launch attacks directly from underwater?"
"Everyone... everyone, get into high alert mode! Disperse all fighter jets!"
Arthur didn't even need to give that hint; the Challengers were already in complete chaos when the red laser shot out from the seabed and locked onto the fighter jet.
The aerial formation had long since fallen apart and was in complete chaos.
Even now, Arthur remains completely unaware of the Dragon Country's military deployment.
If he had known a little more, he would have known that Antarctica was also a place where Dragon Country's military power could cover.
In addition to 1,000 Type 815A Electronic Reconnaissance Ships, Dragon Country also has 10,000 Type 097 and Type 098 nuclear submarines.
The Type 097 nuclear submarine mainly operates in the waters surrounding Dragon Country, carrying out anti-submarine and anti-ship operations. Its main task is to intercept warships that intrude into Dragon Country waters.
The Type 098 nuclear submarine is a long-range attack unit similar to the Borei the Bear Country, tasked with the mission of destroying a country.
They usually lurk beneath the deep sea, waiting for the attack orders from the Dragon Country's higher-ups.
These 10,000 Type 098 nuclear submarines, like Street Loafer at sea, are scattered across every corner of the Earth Online!
If the Type 815A frigate is the eyes of the Dragon Country spread across this planet, then the Type 098 nuclear submarine is the killer that the Dragon Country has planted in every corner of the world!
Always ready to carry out the most brutal destructive missions.
The Type 098 nuclear submarine has the deepest diving depth on Earth Online, with a maximum depth of 2,000 meters below sea level.
This depth is Level even the Eagle Sauce Country's Columbia-class nuclear submarines cannot reach.
With each additional minute of diving depth, the difficulty of detection increases. With Earth Online's current technology, detecting depths of 500 meters is basically the limit.
At a depth of 2000 meters, even the most advanced detection equipment from the Eagle Sauce Country and Bear Country cannot pinpoint its location.
In addition, the 098 submarine's power generation mode is also the most advanced on the entire planet, using magnetohydrodynamic mode, which provides long-lasting endurance and allows for almost completely silent underwater operation.
With all these factors combined, Arthur's aircraft carriers and aircraft fleet were naturally unable to detect the submarine fleet's movements!
Stealth and stealth are only one aspect of the Type 098 nuclear submarine's advantages; the most crucial selling point of this underwater unit lies in its unparalleled attack capabilities.
The Type 098 nuclear submarine possesses a sophisticated underwater torpedo and missile launch system.
It can launch an attack directly from 500 meters underwater!
It carries two types of top-tier weapons: the Yu-10 Heavy Torpedo and the Julang Missile.
The Yu-10 Heavy Torpedo, with its electromagnetic catapult technology, can easily strike surface targets 100 nautical miles away. Its destructive power is so great that it can even destroy a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier in one shot!
The Julang Missile is mainly used for air-to-air and air-to-ground strikes. Even if each Julang Missile carries six nuclear warheads, it can strike targets 16,000 kilometers away! Destroying a country is an easy task for them.
Because of their immense destructive power, the Dragon Country generally does not deploy this force casually.
But now Arthur's fleet intends to land in Antarctica, further damaging the entire Earth Online living environment.
In this situation, using any means to stop it is not excessive.
Arthur's thinking was not wrong. Once they landed in Antarctica, the Dragon Country would indeed have a hard time dealing with these Challengers.
In the Instance's setting, the Dragon Country will not bomb Antarctica.
However, within the Instance setting, the Dragon Country will prevent Challengers from landing in Antarctica no matter what!
Just as Arthur's fleet dispersed, the sea level seemed to be gently stirred by an invisible hand, and suddenly began to rise slowly.
In an instant, countless whirlpools appeared on the calm sea surface. Like eyes in the abyss, they devoured all the surrounding tranquility and stirred up the sea into chaos.
Countless missiles erupted from the whirlpools in the sea, like angry sea gods wielding their Tridents, twisting and tearing the seawater apart with deafening roars.
As giant waves surged up one after another, Arthur's aircraft began to explode in the sky!
Each Julang Missile seemed to possess the power to tear through the void, drawing silver trails against the azure Firmament before gracefully disintegrating in mid-air into countless tiny warheads.
Like countless stars scattered across the sky, or like a shower of petals falling, the sky was adorned with both magnificence and poignancy.
Flames, smoke, and falling.
The wreckage of the fighter jets fell like autumn leaves, tracing poignant arcs as they plunged into the still-unsettled whirlpools on the sea surface.
The whole process was completed in an instant!
Arthur didn't even see the attack maneuvers of the Dragon Country submarines clearly before his F-22 fighter disintegrated in mid-air.
He quickly opened his parachute.
Only after escaping the smoke and flames did he realize how horrific the scene had been.
As he fled, the surrounding scenery haunted him like a nightmare: the horizon and the sky, like two ends of fate, one side a raging fire god, devouring everything in blinding red; the other side a deep blue, dark and mysterious, as if another world was silently watching this catastrophe.
Just then, a red laser beam shooting out from the sea instantly pinpointed his location!
Whoosh!
A missile specifically designed for him struck him directly.
"Ahh!"
The instantaneous explosion instantly vaporized Arthur's body into dust.
The fact that Dragon Country was willing to spend a Julang Missile costing 100 million RMB to kill him is already the greatest respect they could show him.
