American Celestial Master

Chapter 103, Detectors
After a few words between the two, someone from the U.S. Navy came over and told Annie that the commander wanted to see her and Victor.Anne said goodbye to Andres, and agreed that we would meet again in the bar of the Boxer later.Then he followed a soldier to the ship island.

As for Andres, he boarded a Seahawk anti-submarine helicopter to perform daily tasks.

In order to ensure the safety of the escort formation, the Boxer will continuously release anti-submarine helicopters.These anti-submarine helicopters will put down the sonar in a hovering attitude every once in a while to monitor the movement under the sea.Andres is not the first time to follow the helicopter on such a mission.

A few days ago, during an anti-unknown underwater creature drill, a Seahawk helicopter was lowering its altitude and preparing to release its sonar when it was suddenly attacked by a sea monster, which shot out like an archerfish. The jet of water hit the operator sitting by the side hatch.The operator was seriously injured, and even the helicopter almost crashed.

So the Navy began to equip helicopters with escorts.For example, Andres, on the bright side, his task is to protect other crew members as much as possible once the helicopter is attacked and crashed.

Of course, this is only a mission on the surface. Their actual mission is to obtain tissue samples of sea monsters as much as possible.

Sitting by the side door of the Seahawk, Andres looked out, the sea was sparkling, and a gray Burke-class destroyer was slowing down far ahead.The main task of the Burke-class destroyers in the escort formation is to use towed sonar to monitor the movement under the sea.When using a towed sonar, the ship needs to slow down, otherwise the noise caused by the high-speed movement of the sonar itself is enough to make it hard to hear anything.

Therefore, escort ships generally adopt the relay method.A warship puts up its towed sonar, speeds up to overtake other ships, then slows down in front of the fleet, and then puts down its sonar for monitoring. After the ship puts up its sonar, the other warship can put up its sonar and speed up.There are only three destroyers, and the number is still a bit small. In addition to such alternate operations, it is easy to have dead spots in monitoring in certain directions, so the sonar of the Seahawk anti-submarine helicopter is needed to supplement it.

The helicopter quickly arrived at the corresponding position, began to slow down and lower the altitude.Andres put on his backpack, grabbed a special harpoon beside him, and stared nervously at the sea.After the harpoon stabs the target, it will automatically suck its tissue fluid and blood.As long as the gadget with these things on the back of the harpoon is brought back, Andres' mission is completed.

But in Andres's pocket, there is still a spare container. If there is a chance, Andres will stab the sea monster twice, so that when they go to Fidel, they will take it with them. It's a meet and greet.

The height of the helicopter continued to drop until it reached a height of about [-] meters above the sea surface, and the wind brought by the rotors blew out a small dish in that piece of sea water...

In the officers' club on the Boxer, Anne and Victor met Rear Admiral Thompson, who was directly in charge of the operation.

Thompson was a normal officer, at least he wasn't wearing a skirt.He welcomed the two superheroes who had a certain influence throughout the United States, and then told Anne and them about some rules on the warship.

Although General Thompson has always been very polite, Annie could see that General Thompson actually didn't agree with the fact that a bunch of superheroes were stuffed in.At the same time, he didn't really trust those "pagan technologies".Annie thinks he probably thinks the government's stuffing superhero stuff in there is just for publicity.

Coming out of General Thompson, a major officer took them to the bridge to see the equipment provided to them by HX.Lin Qiusheng initially estimated that the magic circle that HX gave was probably a magic circle with the function of blinding eyes, but it is not easy for such a magic circle to cover a wide range of sea areas. Array is still very curious.

But when Annie went over to take a look, what she saw was not a magic circle, but a large disc with a button in the middle and scale marks all around it.In the outermost part of the circle, there is a circle of lights, two yellow lights in the direction of Anne and Victor are on, and several green lights are blinking quickly or slowly.

Annie looked at it, and asked the major next to her, "Can I take a photo?"

"Yes," said the major.

Annie took out her mobile phone to take a picture, and then said to the major: "I need to see its manual. Is there a manual?"

The major then took out a manual and asked, "This is the original manual, written in Chinese, do you need an English translation?"

Annie smiled at him and said, "No need, I can understand."

She reached for the instruction manual and read it.This manual is extremely concise, the basic content is as follows:

When the instrument is used, it will be connected to the HX satellite network. Please place the instrument in a non-electromagnetic shielding constant temperature environment. The temperature should be within the range of 233K-328K... Press the ON button on the panel to start the instrument.If there are extraordinary creatures approaching, the lights in the corresponding direction will start to flash.The flashing frequency represents the distance, and (see the appendix of the manual for details) the color of the light represents the energy level of the approaching extraordinary creature.

"Victor and I are considered yellow? The two lights facing us are not flashing because we are too close. Those green lights may represent Andres and the others. Let me check the flashing frequency. Well, they are far away from us now."

Annie thought about it while reading the manual.After thinking this way, Annie began to think about the principle of this thing again.

"According to the speculation of the HX Holy Order, the extraordinary creatures themselves are the product of changes in the rules of the world, and the changes in the world rules will largely reflect the changes in Planck's constant. According to Lin's deduction, some powerful extraordinary creatures, their Existence itself distorts the world, changing the Planck constant around it, just like a massive object distorts space.

In fact, in theory, anything with mass will have an effect on the smoothness of space, and all extraordinary creatures may have such an effect. This may be a detection device based on this principle.It's a pity that this thing is welded to death. If you force it open, there may be a self-destruct device inside, and they will definitely use this as an excuse to stop providing after-sales service. "

Annie thought about it, and said to the major again: "Can I take a picture of the instruction manual?"

"Okay, apart from disassembling this device, there are no other problems." The major replied.

Annie took another photo of the manual, and said, "I'm going to upload these things to our research institute. I remember that I have this authorization."

"Yes. You can use Starlink to contact your research institute," the major said.Annie sent these things, together with her guess about them, to Lin Qiusheng.

And Lin Qiusheng also quickly sent her a message back: "Your guess is completely reasonable. This is probably a supernatural power detection device based on this principle. It must be used in a non-electromagnetic shielding environment and connected to the HX satellite network. That's probably because it also needs real-time data on local Planck constant distortions from the HX satellite network.

In the end, HX came up with such a thing. For them, it is really more suitable for them than the cover-up method we researched-after all, if the cover-up method works, who else would buy a high-speed merchant ship? "
