Late at night, on the upper reaches of the river, the tugboat Monyach was shaking in the storm.
The river surface was rough, and the water waves slammed against the hull of the ship under the illumination of the xenon lamp.
In the command room, Professor Mance shared his high-end cigars with Zhou An, the lights were flashing, and the two sat opposite each other, puffing away and talking.
Zhou Anshen muttered: "I hope God won't let me be so unlucky. In this place with no sky and no earth, and the weather is crazy, if I really meet the legendary Kui Dragon, I will really be in trouble!"
Mance spit out a wisp of white mist and chuckled: "It's just a second-generation species. I believe that with the firepower of 'Monyah', it can kill all carbon-based creatures. With Jiang's Shenwei, let alone the second-generation species Kuilong."
, even the Dragon King cannot afford to splash in the river!"
Zhou An was not so optimistic, but he shook his head and said nothing. Who told him that he was too lazy to walk because of the heavy rain at first. Now if he takes a lifeboat and reaches the shore, he may be overturned by a few waves, which is far less than Mani.
The Yach arrived safely.
"Captain, I have received a signal from the Maritime Safety Administration of the Dajiang Channel. The storm will continue in the second half of the night, the wind will increase to Level 10, and the rainfall will reach 200 mm. The rare heavy rain may be accompanied by thunderstorms. They are mobilizing helicopters to rescue us.
, suggest we abandon ship." The third officer on the side took off his earphones and said.
"They said in reply that our ship has a very deep draft and the hull is currently stable. It can survive the heavy rain. There are several patients on the ship and it is not appropriate to abandon the ship." Mance pushed up his glasses and raised an eyebrow and said, "You don't have to worry.
This is the Monyach, not a tugboat, it is a warship, and a Category 12 storm is not a problem for it."
Mance looked up at the dark sky outside, was silent for a while, and talked to himself.
"But this heavy rain reminds me of the feeling of impending disaster every time the Greenland ice sea approached these things ten years ago."
"Yes, I remembered an operation in the Qinling Mountains more than 20 years ago to cooperate with the orthodox Wang family." Zhou An smacked his lips and said: "I had just turned thirty at that time, and I was also a first-time substitute. The orthodox family died.
Many people, including three of the direct Wang family, died, and the mixed-blood species have become weak in front of pure-blood dragons."
There was a moment of silence after speaking, and the command room was completely silent, with only the occasional sound of typing on the keyboard. Everyone had undergone rigorous training at Kassel Academy, staring at their own screens and operating quickly.
Two intertwined heartbeats echoed in the earphones. In the heartbeat monitoring window on the screen, green light spots falling and falling together indicated that the two young and strong hearts were still beating normally.
Sixty meters below the water surface, the spotlight cannot penetrate much distance in the deep water. There is only a blue-gray light strip. The violent storm on the river is filtered by the sixty-meter-deep water layer and only gentle water waves are left here.
.
Shutoku Aki helped Ye Sheng step on a huge boulder between the sand and sand. The boulder was too slippery to stand on. Previously, this area was a mountainous area because the Three Gorges Reservoir was flooded.
Countless "snakes" emerged from Ye Sheng's limbs and bones, spread far away, and penetrated into every stone crevice underground. Ye Sheng's eyes were filled with golden light, which was very dazzling under the dark water. Countless pictures appeared from the eyes of the "snakes".
came.
Ye Sheng's heartbeat rate dropped to 30 beats per minute. Shutoku Aki hugged the extremely weak Ye Sheng hard to prevent him from being carried away by the current or in danger.
With Ye Sheng as the center, the "snake" swam within a radius of three kilometers. Ye Sheng searched very carefully. He had to be fully prepared for every underwater operation and could not waste every opportunity for underwater operations.
But after a while, Ye Sheng was disappointed. The golden light flowing in Ye Sheng's eyes slowly became dim, until each "snake" returned and inhabited the depths of Ye Sheng's thoughts again.
On the Monyach, Mance saw Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki slowly surfacing from the sonar chart. He turned around and ordered with disappointment: "Take up the line and pull them up. There is no need to work overtime tonight!"
"
Under the water, Ye Sheng and Shude Aki slowly floated up under the pull of the lifeline. They held hands to ensure that they would not get separated or the lifeline would become entangled and knotted.
"Tonight we returned without success again. The legendary Baidi City was flooded, the palace of Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire! When can I find you!"
The Word Spirit Snake is a high-consuming Word Spirit. Ye Sheng was still a little weak after using it, and his face looked a little pale.
Shutoku Aki held his hand tightly and said, "The river is so big, and dragons are smart creatures. It's not easy to find them."
Ye Sheng sighed and said: "That's it, the 'Kuimen Project' has been open for so long and there is no gain at all. I still remember how I felt when I was selected. I can participate in the plan to bury the Dragon King... If I can open the Norton with my own hands
Palace, I will definitely write it on my epitaph when I die!"
Jiudoku Aki smiled and rolled his eyes: "How come there is no harvest? Didn't the Jiang family salvage a sunken ship a few days ago? I heard that the value of light cultural relics exceeds tens of millions."
In the command room, suddenly the water glass in front of Zhou An's desk was knocked over. With quick eyesight and quick hands, he picked up the water glass that was about to fall to the ground, but the water immediately spilled all over the floor.
"No, there's going to be an earthquake, speed up the winding up!" Zhou An stood up with his hands on the table and shouted!
The anxiety in Zhou An's heart became more intense, and his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.
Murphy's Law says that if there is a possibility that things will go bad, no matter how small the possibility is, it will always happen.
Zhou An felt that things would turn bad tonight. What is the worst case scenario? Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire? The next generation Kuilong? Zhou An couldn't help but think about it.
Zhou An shouted on the communication channel: "Shenwei! Stop operations and move closer to Monyach!"
"Shenwei...呲呲...is heading towards Monyach..."
The sound returned was intermittent in the command room, as if some powerful force had affected the magnetic field, thereby interfering with wireless communications.
Zhou An put on his windbreaker and left the command room and walked straight out of the deck.
The turbine that retracted the survival rope on the side kept turning, making a clicking sound. Zhou An looked at the river in spite of the heavy rain. The waves were turbulent under the light, and the white light could not penetrate the water layer at all.
The waves became stronger, and the extremely deep-draft Monyach kept shaking. Even Ye Shengjiu and Deyaji in the deep water could feel the oscillations of the surrounding water.
"The underwater earthquake has started... Damn it! Their warning this time was too accurate!"
In the control room, Mance stared at the picture sent back by Ye Sheng underwater on the big screen, and couldn't help but press his palms tightly on the table.
Suddenly the screen went black, and Mance was shocked when he heard a loud sound of a steel cable snapping from outside.
Mance hurriedly ran out of the deck, only to see Zhou An hanging on the ship, one hand holding onto the deck and the other holding tightly on the lifeline connecting Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki.
At the critical moment, Zhou An, who was nervous, grabbed the broken iron cable from the turbine!
