Office of the head of the special shipping business division.
“General Manager. How did this happen?”
Colonel Lim, who sat down, opened his mouth.
However, his voice at the outset wasn’t so harsh.
I have something to say out loud, but I am in a position where I can push myself as hard as I want, but because it is someone I need to build a good relationship with.
Where is the skill alone to attach a star?
‘If promotion is missed… .’
You must prepare in advance for your life after being discharged from the military.
Therefore, it is true that there are many people who are willing to work for Daehan Heavy Industries in the near future.
For that reason, the submarine evaluation procedure is also expedited, providing maximum convenience to them.
Colonel Lim took a sip of the tea that the general manager silently recommended.
He simply looked at the opponent’s face without further urging.
Then the mouth opens soon.
“Colonel Lim. As a manager, it can be bad, but I’m grateful that you didn’t make a noise.”
You seem to know that I have been particularly considerate of you.
A lot of the complaints that had been building up inside were allayed.
“No words… But how did this happen…?”
Colonel Lim tries his luck in a gentle way, but the general manager continues to remain silent.
Colonel Lim is forced to lose his luck again.
“Chief, at least I need to know English, right?”
This means you can’t just skip it.
Only after that prompting came the general manager’s voice again.
“I don’t know the English either.”
“yes?”
The words that came out were quite unexpected.
How many people taller than that at Daehan Heavy Industries?
Looking at his face like that, the general manager said.
“Come with me for a while.”
* * *
At the general manager’s gaze telling him to go in, Colonel Lim entered the building.
It wasn’t just that the place I was going into was the inaccessible place.
A situation where you are alone.
The general manager who came up to this point is still outside.
‘What the hell… .’
As I walk up the stairs, I hear the sound of a machine running vigorously.
gulp
saliva is swallowed
As soon as he got up on the top, Colonel Lim caught the back of a man looking down at the production process.
‘no way… ?’
He didn’t seem to react at all as he didn’t feel the presence behind him.
‘Should I talk… ?’
The moment he is about to speak
“A lot of work. Colonel Lim.”
Colonel Lim hurriedly bowed his back at the opponent’s face.
“Boss! It seems that I unintentionally bothered you.”
“No. They’re all working hard, so I’m well aware that Colonel Lim is taking care of us a lot. I’ve already seen and received it.”
The boss said to him who shook his head again.
“Come on, don’t be like that and come this way.”
Colonel Lim followed his hand and approached the boss.
Then it caught my eye,
‘This is… !?’
The president responded to Colonel Lim’s face as he looked back without realizing it.
“National dynasty. Top secret among top secrets. In the distant future, Colonel Lim will remember this day like this. That I was in that historic place.”

After the second base has been attacked, it is a way to travel on a WIG ship.
“It’s nice to have something prepared in advance.”
A reference to the third point.
Yuhan Wol asked at Yang Kwang’s bright voice.
“Where?”
Both the first and second bases were of considerable size.
It was hard to even imagine how much money or effort would have gone into him.
So, it would be a lie if there was no expectation for the next base that had been prepared for quite some time.
“Yes. Very cool.”
Yang Yang-gwang smiled meaningfully and looked away.
Yu Ja-gun and Cain are where his gaze is directed.
Yu Ja-geon opened his mouth to his son’s gaze.
“There’s something Cain and Do-kwang have been preparing for a long time. It’s a submarine.”
“submarine?”
At those words, the operation team’s eyes widened.
Because I never thought that the third base would be a submarine.
When I saw the WIG ship, I was amazed at how different the scale was, but now it’s a submarine.
The base personnel smiled happily at the reaction.
The personnel of the operation team, who confirmed their reaction, stood out.
Now that I see, it seems that the base personnel were aware of this fact.
Yuhan Wol turned his head again.
“Then what did your father say?”
Yu Ja-geon just sits calmly in the eyes of his son.
Yang Yang-gwang giggled and opened his mouth as if he was excited.
“Keuk. You deceived the president and executives of Daehan Heavy Industries so well. My father’s weight… Uh, he wasn’t kidding.
Next to Yang Yang-gwang, who raised his thumb, Yu Ja-geon opened his mouth.
“It’s me, I’ve only been here for a while. Do Kwang-yi has been through a lot of trouble. To make a decent high-tech submarine, you have to hack submarine makers in the United States and other developed countries. Besides, if you’re going to work to entrust the shipyard with top-secret production, trust them. I had to make it, so the NIS also hacked it. The DAPA also worked on it.”
Following Yu Ja-geon’s words, the eyes that had been focused on Yang Yang-gwang were moved to Cain.
“Cain did all of the design of the finished submarine. In fact, that’s an incredible ability.”
Operations team members nodded their heads.
Even though you already know Cain’s great weapon-making ability, it’s a story that will leave your mouth open.
Yang Kwang also added, as if Cain was really great.
“That’s right. It’s not that it’s not, it’s because we applied all the cutting-edge technologies to the submarine. As it was for a purpose. So it must have been really difficult to integrate all the extracted technologies and design it.”
From what I hear, it sounds like you made a great guy.
“Then nuclear sleep?”
Yang-gwang Yang answers Yuhan-wol’s question with a smile.
“Keukkeuk. At first, I thought Cain was going to make a nuclear sleeper when he was talking about a submarine.”
When I started this project, the conversation I had with Cain came to mind.
[This is very important. Perhaps, our fate is at stake.]
I thought it was no joke and of course we were considering a nuclear submarine.
Among submarines, nuclear submarines are, of course, the most high-performance and high-quality cutting-edge weapons.
But Cain’s answer was unexpected.
[no. We will make a diesel submarine.]
As if Yang Gwang-gwang felt at that time, the operation team members looked at Cain.
“Aren’t diesel-engine submarines obsolete now? It seems that all major powers that operate nuclear submarines are on the verge of dismantling?”
Cain opened his mouth to Yuhanwol’s question.
“There are only six countries that properly possess and operate nuclear-powered submarines. The United States, United Kingdom, France, Russia, and China. An official nuclear weapons state under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and a permanent member of the Security Council. Those five countries and India, plus Australia. Of course, if we make a nuclear-powered submarine, we can make it. Korea already has that level of technology. But then what?
“What do you mean?”
“Even if you make a submarine with a nuclear reactor, there is no fuel. That’s the problem. Obtaining nuclear fuel is more difficult than making a nuclear submarine. Uranium for submarines is tightly controlled. Turning on and monitoring, there is a high chance of getting caught by accident. And if caught, you will be subject to terrible tracking. Because powerful countries are extremely sensitive to it.”
The people on the left nod their heads as if they understood.
“Then it would be better not to touch nuclear-powered submarines at all.”
“Yeah. And not as much as nuclear-powered, but with the latest technology, diesel-powered submarines can stay submerged for months without floating on the surface. That’s enough to get them out of enemy surveillance.”
Aiden, who was listening, opened his mouth.
“As Cain said, we don’t really need a nuclear-powered submarine. So there’s no reason to spend a lot of time and effort on a big risk. And even if nuclear fuel is available, nuclear-powered submarines take too long to build. . We weren’t in a position to wait that long. It was more important to get a submarine as soon as possible.”
“Then what did you make?”
“What we should have is not a nuclear submarine, but a ‘submarine that never gets noticed by the enemy’. A stealth submarine.”
Cain added an explanation to Aiden’s words.
“Originally, diesel submarines are smaller and quieter than nuclear-powered submarines, so they are more stealthy. They have all the latest Ghost technologies. There are no torpedo tubes, vertical launch tubes, or missile storage space. Because it’s not for use. So, we made those spaces to be comfortable for living. And we also loaded unmanned and unmanned submersibles, and we had a pod space.”
“Ford?”
“Yeah. A room with access from the sea floor.”
From what I heard, it seems that the submarine was custom-made for the base.
“Then where’s the submarine?”
“It’s at the shipyard. Construction has already been completed and tests have been completed. It’s ready for delivery. Now it’s good to lessen the fear that the base will be attacked.”
Cain looked back at the operation team members and continued.
“If only we can safely take over the submarine.”
There is no such base.
Considering the safety of the party, it must be obtained unconditionally.
“After taking over… How do you drive?”
“It’s not a big deal. There is an autonomous driving system, so it can be operated almost automatically. And the base personnel are already familiar with the submarine operation manuals.”
Yuhanwol nodded at Aiden’s words.
It seems I wasn’t the only one who worked so hard.
Everyone at the base has been preparing fiercely.
“First of all, we should take over without being suspicious. If we make a mistake, we could be pursued by the military before submerging. So, the problem is how to get it…”
Everyone’s eyes turned to one side at Cain’s words.
Someone who can solve such difficult tasks at once.
In those eyes… .
Yujagun nodded his head.

[Colonel Lim. All this is for the sake of the country only.]
Then I heard it and knew it.
that something great is happening.
Because that’s what the president of Daehan Heavy Industries said with a lot of weight.
In front of Colonel Lim’s eyes, that submarine came to mind.
Larger than any other submarine operated in Korea.
The boss who stood by and looked at the same thing.
The proud voice he vomited is still vivid in his ears.
[This is a project that determines the future of the country.]
I nodded my head in agreement.
[Absolutely nothing but top secret. The moment you leave here, Colonel Lim will have to forget everything.]
The new boss of the boss.
I thought that was normal.
Ha suspicious times.
The confrontation between the great powers is in the form of a flashback.
If you don’t want to get caught in the middle of the whales, you have to be careful and be careful.
You have to prepare and prepare again.
However, this had already been prepared in top secret.
So, even if the boss didn’t pay that much attention, he would have done it on his own.
What is being made is the protagonist who will become the core of the Republic of Korea Navy’s national defense if we wait a little bit.
Because I can’t wait for that moment.
They will happily wait for years to come.
I thought so.
