Chapter 248 - 192: The World is So Strange_2
In their mouths, Baling Pond Strait was an important shipping channel, and those possessing such underwater laser weapons wouldn’t always be causing trouble there.
They urged the Philippines not to be timid.
Thus, the Philippine officials had to take action.
On the side of Lighthouse Country, they simply sent a few survey ships and several experts, modestly modified from a nearby military base, to assist the Philippines in the recovery efforts within a few hours.
Because of the concern about the submarine being sunk by an unknown underwater laser as mentioned in the intelligence, Lighthouse Country did not send submarines over as an easy target.
Instead, they sent survey ships with a simple addition of a light thermal-resistant ceramic alloy.
A light thermal-resistant ceramic alloy can theoretically enhance the ability to resist high-energy lasers; these alloys usually have very high melting points and good thermal stability, capable of delaying or reducing the thermal melting and structural damage of materials under the irradiation of high-energy lasers, providing the system with valuable reaction time or reducing the degree of damage.
And so, a secret task force jointly formed by the Philippines and Lighthouse Country quietly set off, aiming straight for the area in Baling Pond Strait that had been marked as top secret.
Before noon.
A few inconspicuous survey ships slowly sailed on the surface, the eerily quiet atmosphere revealing a tension unlike normal exploration missions.
Although they appeared to be doing scientific research, they actually had other plans.
