Hello, Mr. Major General Chapter 1098 - Mother Nature“s Uncanny Workmanship 10

Chapter 1098 Mother Nature“s Uncanny Workmanship 10

Gu Nianzhi was the last one to come out of the coral reef cave. She wanted to make sure that all personnel were safely evacuated, but there was also one last thing she wanted to do.
She didn’t discuss it with Song Jinning, because she didn’t know if Song Jinning would agree or disagree, but nevertheless, she had her mind set on doing it.
The Japanese had been so vicious during this attack that she couldn’t swallow it down that easily!
If she didn’t give those petty Japanese a little taste of their own medicine, they would continue thinking that the Huaxia Empire’s people were all submissive cowards who were afraid to fight back with their butcher knives.
Swimming out while holding the remote control in her hands, Gu Nianzhi lowered her head and checked the voltage data on the remote control’s LCD display. At that moment, a Japanese frogman quietly crept up from behind Gu Nianzhi. Gu Nianzhi’s position was out of Huo Shaoheng’s angle of view, so Huo Shaoheng didn’t catch sight of the enemy stealthily swimming up from behind and approaching Gu Nianzhi.
The Japanese frogman was holding an APS underwater assault rifle attached to an azure coral cluster, and he aimed it at Gu Nianzhi. From the corners of Gu Nianzhi’s eyes, she saw a cold light flashing, which was reflecting off of the black lance of the underwater sniper rifle’s scope!
A warning bell started ringing in her mind, and her legs pumped back and forth quickly, but she was not really a vigorously-trained military elite, after all. Although her movements were swift, she still wasn’t fast enough. A slender underwater bullet with a pointed cone swept past her, causing a ripple of white waves. It didn’t hurt her, but the insulating wetsuit was slashed open by that slender underwater bullet.
The cold seawater immediately poured in. At that point, their surroundings had already been transformed into a huge electric field. Although the energy had not yet completely erupted, the electric shocks were like woolen needles pricking at her skin. Gu Nianzhi was in so much pain that she felt like she was on the verge of blacking out, so she quickly hid behind the reefs and lay on her back while panting and gasping for breath.
Huo Shaoheng finally noticed that something seemed wrong with Gu Nianzhi. He quickly turned the muzzle and raised his gun to aim at the enemy! His rifle’s underwater bullets out-rivaled his opponent’s firepower. Huaxia’s latest QBS06 underwater sniper rifle was indeed a “frogman’s nemesis,” and it had the advantage. In the face of the APS underwater assault rifle used by the Japanese frogmen, it was much more potent and deadly.
Huo Shaoheng had been very careful about saving bullets before—one bullet per enemy, and no bullet shall be wasted. But when he saw the enemy fire a shot towards Gu Nianzhi and saw her swaying in the water, his eyes reddened. He tossed his bullet-saving principle out the window, and holding the trigger with both hands, he started using his sniper rifle as a semi-automatic sub-machine gun and started firing relentlessly!
Countless bullets were catapulted at the enemy, and the water was dyed red like a sea of blood. His QBS06 underwater sniper rifle instantly turned the enemy’s body into a sieve. The seawater poured into the holes in the Japanese frogman’s body and flowed out from behind him. The strong water pressure penetrated his body and instantly split it apart in a process similar to an explosion.
Before that man had finished blowing up, Huo Shaoheng had already swum to Gu Nianzhi, hugged her, and put her head in his arms, saying, “Don’t look.”
Gu Nianzhi struggled. “I’m fine! Don’t stop me from doing my job!” She was in a hurry and was itching to use the remote control. She hadn’t expected Huo Shaoheng to finish him off before she had the chance to.
Huo Shaoheng loosened his arms, and Gu Nianzhi turned around and discovered that more and more Japanese frogmen were rushing out of the buoy circle. It seemed like they had finally realized that something was wrong. The electric field in the buoy circle was getting stronger and stronger, and the electric shock underwater was getting more and more unbearable!
Gu Nianzhi gritted her teeth, and her fingers rubbed the remote control. Should she press it, or should she not?!! She had come up with this plan, but now the insulating diving suit she wore was scratched. If she pressed the “active” button on the remote control, she would risk experiencing the same electric shock as she had in the Blue Hole.
During that moment, a memory of the deep, excruciating pain down to her bones came to mind, and Gu Nianzhi’s whole body trembled in fear of the memory. Huo Shaoheng stood by her and was looking for a chance to pull her out, but as soon as he pulled her arm, Huo Shaoheng immediately noticed that Gu Nianzhi’s whole body was trembling nonstop in an irregular manner. He recognized that kind of trembling. It was not fear nor a panic response, but rather a natural bodily stress response.
What had happened?
Huo Shaoheng quickly pulled Gu Nianzhi’s arm and spun her around. He immediately looked sideways and then to the front, back, left, and right, and saw the tear in Gu Nianzhi’s insulating wetsuit. He then remembered that Gu Nianzhi had told him that the seawater was now electrically charged, and those without an insulating diving suit would suffer a high-voltage shock.
Huo Shaoheng’s heart sank, and he tensed up. He had received countless electric shocks during his vigorous special forces training. He knew how painful they were. He could bear it, but how could Gu Nianzhi bear such excruciating pain?
He couldn’t erase his memory of Gu Nianzhi’s appearance after she had been shocked by the electric fence in the Blue Hole’s waters in the Caribbean—the ghastly pale and bloodless countenance, the flaming red and swollen lower lip, and the sight of her limp body that had been paralyzed by the electric shock…
As all these thoughts flashed through his mind, Huo Shaoheng swiftly untied his insulating diving suit and took it off, revealing a normal diving suit underneath. Gu Nianzhi was aghast, and through the communicator in her mask, she kept repeating, “You must be crazy! Quickly, put it on this instant! This is an electric field! Do you know how much voltage there is?! Do you want to die?! Ms. Song and I are trying so hard to save you! We won’t let you die by your own hands!”
Huo Shaoheng felt a plethora of conflicting emotions inside but said nothing. He grabbed her hands firmly, took off her torn insulating diving suit, and put his insulating diving suit on her, then tightly zipped up all the openings, effectively blocking out the sensation of the icy seawater. The prickling and painful bodily sensation of being stuck by a thousand fine needles instantly disappeared. Huo Shaoheng put Gu Nianzhi’s ripped insulating diving suit on his own body, hugged her tightly in his arms, and shielded her with his entire body.
The voltage of the electric field in the seawater was still gradually increasing. The more powerful the previous magnetic field was, the more potent this transformation was going to be. As the seawater penetrated through the gap in the torn insulating diving suit, Huo Shaoheng felt the pain of being shocked, and his face started twitching uncontrollably. However, it was just the physical pain his body was experiencing. His heart was actually extremely joyful at the moment. Because of his sacrifice, his lover did not have to suffer such unbearable pain.
“Let’s go!” Huo Shaoheng roared, and kicking his feet against the reef, he held on to Gu Nianzhi as he swam towards the edge of the buoy circle and rushed forward like a speeding arrow!
As soon as the two rushed out of the buoy circle, Gu Nianzhi immediately pressed the “active” button on the remote control. The sea calmed down, the waves calmed down, and for a moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.
Gu Nianzhi leaned on Huo Shaoheng’s arms and looked over his shoulder, just like she did when she was 12 years old and had looked over Huo Shaoheng’s shoulder while in his arms to see that the car had exploded into a mushroom cloud.
For a moment, it seemed like the illusion of a halo appeared around the buoy circle. Then suddenly, those mosquito coil-like buoys started bouncing and popping like fried beans in a pan, and a thunderous roar could be heard!
In the meantime, the blue-violet electric light rose into the sky, and in an instant, it brightly illuminated the entire buoy! All the thin ferromagnetic tubes hanging below the buoy were also converted into electric field emission sources. The mosquito coil-like electromagnetic buoy ring quickly transformed into a huge electric field, becoming a veritable electric fence.
The blue-violet electric light twisted and danced around from the surface to beneath the sea and surrounded this 500-meter-diameter undersea area from up to down and left to right, forming an alternative “Blue Hole.”
At this time, if an airplane had flown by, the view below wouldn’t be that of a clear blue sea but rather an uncanny bluish-purplish body of water appearing almost exactly like the Blue Hole in the Caribbean. However, this was not actually a Blue Hole, but actually a three-dimensional electric fence that literally enclosed hundreds of Japanese frogmen within the vicinity of the buoy circle.
Several clueless Japanese frogmen still had no idea what was going on and recklessly tried to break out of the buoy ring, but they were instantly electrocuted the moment they touched the blue-violet electric arc. The corpses quickly turned into ashes that floated towards the water’s surface and out of the buoy circle.
The other Japanese frogmen who witnessed the ghastly scene dared not take any further action and could only retreat for the moment. The range of this blue-violet electric aperture was so expansive, and its electric light was so potent that it even blocked out the Japanese light destroyers not far away.
“Goddamn it! What is this?! Where’s the electric light coming from?!” This place should have been the emission source of the strong magnetic field they had arranged with the help of their chief scientist!
The Japanese Marines on the warships were furious and began recklessly issuing orders out of desperation. Even if their bombs hit the territorial waters of the Huaxia Empire, they no longer cared about the consequences as long as it meant that they killed those Huaxia Empire’s soldiers that fled!
They had contributed so much manpower, labor, material resources, and all the spy rings that had been in latency in the Huaxia Empire for so many years, yet all of that had practically been wiped out in one fell swoop. As a result, not only had they lost their valuable mole, Hong Kangquan, but their biggest goal, Huo Shaoheng, had also retreated into safety!
The Major General of the Japanese Marine Corps who commanded the battle had decided to kill himself to atone for his shameful failure, but before that, he would take as many of the Huaxia Empire’s soldiers as he could with him!
“Launch!”
Under his orders, warships fired torpedoes in the direction Gu Nianzhi and the others were traveling in, which was the Huaxia Empire’s maritime exclusive economic zone. However, the torpedo needed to pass through the front of the electric fence, which was shining with blue-violet light, before it could do any damage to Gu Nianzhi and the others. As a result, as soon as the torpedo broke through, due to the high voltage in the buoy circle, it suddenly detonated!
The loud, rumbling boom stirred up an enormous wave that was huge enough to trigger a second-level hurricane, and almost all the Japanese warships got wrapped up in the blue-violet electric light!
Meanwhile, on the scientific research boat, Song Jinning discovered something strange. She didn’t know what caused the emergence of the uncanny blue-violet electric light, but now that the Japanese had become desperate and hysterical enough to initiate a full-on war with them, how could she stand idly by?
Song Jinning immediately deployed strong electromagnetic interference toward the Japanese warships. Seeing that launching torpedoes didn’t work, the Japanese warships decided to start firing missiles into the air. However, the navigation systems of the cruise missiles had been thrown into chaos by the strong electromagnetic interference. They swiveled 180 degrees in the air and hit their own frigates.
In the case of complete malfunctioning of the radar and navigation systems, causing damage to the enemy aside, whether or not you could leave the vicinity of the flashing blue-violet electric light alive was a problem!
Postmodern warfare was no longer an era of sea-to-sea tactics. Song Jinning’s strong electromagnetic interference was the result of discoveries and data from the uncanny magnetic field in City C. No single individual on the Blue Planet was so powerful that he could single-handedly decimate a regiment, completely dismantle the Japanese radar system, and destroy its ability to track its targets. That was because previously, they were limited by the capabilities of their hardware.
Yet this time, with the energy from a distant, powerful magnetic field to remotely supplement the conversion process, the strong electromagnetic interference formed 360-degree complete coverage of the area without having any space unaccounted for. Although such intensity could not be replicated and might not appear again in the future, at this moment, it played an indispensable role in helping them paralyze all the Japanese warships and weapons that required laser guidance to function.
“Withdraw! Withdraw!” This time Japan’s supreme commander was a naval general. Seeing that his subordinates had committed suicide and all weapons failed, all he could do was issue orders for retreat.
…
Huo Shaoheng popped his head above the surface with Gu Nianzhi and looked back at the blue-violet electric light that seemed eerily similar to the Blue Hole’s waters they had seen in the Caribbean. The corners of his lips curled up in a smile. He lifted Gu Nianzhi’s mask, lowered his head, and gently planted a passionate kiss on her chapped lips.
Then he asked her softly, “What happened? Did you do this?”
Gu Nianzhi leaned into his arms and smiled coyly. “My dear Major General, that is obviously mother nature’s uncanny workmanship. How would I know anything about it?”
