Daimon's order for the fleet to advance was risky, but he wasn't going in completely unprepared. He roared an order:
"Detonate the depth charge ambush perimeter!"
A thousand meters below the surface, in the deep sea surrounding the massive tentacle, a ring of pre-planted, new-model depth charges detonated simultaneously!
Massive shockwaves erupted on the seabed. Propelled by the immense water pressure at a depth of a thousand meters, they blasted outward in all directions, their primary force directed at the gargantuan, fifty-meter-thick tentacle.
The converging shockwaves created a powerful shear force, like a circular guillotine contracting inward. It immediately trapped the giant tentacle and squeezed it viciously.
The giant tentacle, originally fifty meters in diameter, was compressed to a width of about twenty meters as numerous lacerations tore across its surface.
