Port of Pierce is the only industrial port in the country of Rigavia.

Strictly speaking, a country with a population of two million can have a modern port.

Pierce Harbour is built on the Baltic Sea and has two berths for giant ships and four harbor cranes on the shore. Although the port is small, it can afford the import and export trade of two million people in Rigavia, which is far more than enough.

In fact, the port is mainly responsible for the shipment of barley, the main crop of Rigavia.

Their barley is very famous, and many breweries in Europe like to use it to brew beer. The weather in Rigavia is cold, and the barley ripens for up to 300 days. It is sown from July to November and matures from April to June of the following year.

It is now the end of March and the barley harvest in the country of Rigavia is about to begin.

Following.

The bulk ship, renamed the Immovable Mountain, sailed into the Baltic Sea.

Port Pierce isn't busy these days, and large freighters don't stop here. They are just a few small cargo ships of several thousand tons that travel to and from the Baltic Sea, carrying some import and export materials for the country.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the immovable as a mountain arrived at the center of the Baltic Sea.

At this time, the delicate master who served as the temporary captain of the ship began to contact the port by radio.

The handset of the master is a satellite phone in his left hand, and the pager in his right hand keeps pressing the transmitter. The phone rested on the pager, and he didn't even have to speak, and the English-speaking staff of Behemoth Industries did it for him.

"Here the Szeki, call Pierce Harbour. ”

After a burst of electromagnetic noise, a distorted voice came from the pager, "Pierce port received, Shikee, have you arrived in the Baltic Sea?"

"Haha~ man, we're already in the middle of the Baltic Sea. ”

"The weather at sea was good today, so we picked up the speed. We have been adrift at sea for almost a month, and we have almost forgotten the taste of vegetables and can only eat meat every day. ”

"Man, our Port Pierce is small, but we don't lack anything. Not only fresh vegetables, but also the most delicious beer in all of Europe. The port watchman deliberately chirped, he already smelled money.

The other side said impatiently: "If nothing happens, we will be able to dock at ten o'clock in the evening." ”

"We want vegetables and beer. In addition, you should prepare sufficient fuel and lubricating oil. ”

"By the way, you talk to the port bar and tell him not to close too early. ”

"No problem, man. The watchman at Port Pierce laughed, "When you get close to Port Pierce, I'll arrange for a tugboat to pick you up." ”

"Have a nice trip. ”

……

At half past nine o'clock in the evening, in the slightly deserted port of Pierce, the dull sound of diesel engines sounded one after another.

All six tugboats in Pierce Harbour were activated and headed in the direction of what they thought was the "Shikee".

Bunkering ships are also in place at the port, and supply points for vegetables, grain, and seafood are also ready to be moved. Just wait for the first mate of the Shiji to jump ashore, waving US dollars, and purchasing a large amount of supplies from them.

The owner of the bar was kind enough to bring in a few part-time escort girls, rum, whiskey, beer, and prepared dozens of cases. He waited for the sailors to get drunk, and then he was fooled by the escort girl to carry the rest of the wine to the ship.

"Shiji, Shiji, the lookout has not seen your position yet, please light it on the shore. The liaison officer was anxious and radioed the Shiki.

"Shiji received. ”

More than ten seconds later, the liaison officer observed a bright light coming from the sea in the distance through the lookout, and the bright light flashed rapidly. The liaison officer also confirmed the location on the GPS, which was accurate.

"Shiji, please slow down the ship to zero knots. Our tugboat has departed, and it will tow you into port. ”

"The Shiji received it, and it is expected that in fifteen minutes, our ship's speed will be reduced to zero. ”

The liaison was informing the tugboat to move forward, and as soon as he sent the location of the Shiji, the crew of the Shiji was heard on the radio.

"Oh my God~"

"Call Port Pierce, our ship is out of order. ”

The liaison officer didn't panic much, and it was normal for the ship to break down, and only novices would shout.

"What malfunction?"

"I just pulled the clock forward four, gear by gear to the stop, but there was no response from the wheel room. ”

"Then you can notify the wheel room and manually stop the diesel engine. The liaison replied slowly, "Don't panic buddy, we in Port Pierce not only have adequate supplies, but also first-class ship repairmen. ”

"I'll call the repairman, and when your ship docks, I'll make sure that the repairman will be the first to board the ship. ”

"Stop...... Can't stop!"

“hat？”

"There was a call in the wheel room, and the diesel engine couldn't stop. The crew on the other side of the Shiji was even more anxious.

"No, it won't. The liaison quickly stood up and looked at the pillar of light that represented the ship in the distance, "Don't panic, it's impossible for the diesel engine to stop." Just cut off the power supply of the diesel engine urgently, although it will damage the crankcase, but it is better than if you can't stop the boat. ”

In the liaison's opinion, a giant ship has too many ways to stop the diesel engine.

It's just that many methods will cause harm to the equipment in the wheel room, and these crew members dare not deal with it well, for fear of being held accountable by the angry boss.

In these days, which boss is not a lover of money, and until the last resort, ensuring the ship's property is their first consideration. The liaison was trying to persuade him a few more words so that the Szeji would not delay the best time to dispose of it.

As a result, the Shiji kept shouting on the radio, "We've cut off the power to the diesel engine." ”

"But!

It's evil, and the diesel engine is still working.

It's spinning faster. ”

"It can't be. While informing the port's emergency response office, the liaison officer shouted into the intercom, "What type of diesel engine are you, and how can it still work if the power is off?"

"I don't know!" said the Shiki's voice, innocent.

"Cut off the oil, cut off the valve of the oil pipeline. "There are already beads of sweat on the liaison's head.

Through the glass of the lookout, he could already see the Shiki, getting closer and closer to the harbor. Although in a short time, the Shiji has not been able to reach the port. However, it is important to know that the larger the ship, the higher the delay after the operation order is issued.

"Doot~Doot~"

By this time, the Shiji had begun to whistle continuously and played two red lights representing an emergency malfunction, prompting nearby ships to evade.

"The oil can't be cut off, and now the equipment in the entire wheel room is out of order. Oh my God, we've never had that before. ”

"Damn, then you turn around. The liaison roared, "If you don't turn, you'll crash into the harbor." ”

"Oh my God~ our steering rudder is also broken. ”

The liaison officer was red-eyed, "Anchor, forcibly anchor." ”

"The windlass is also broken......"

"It's over, we're completely out of control of the ship. Damn, we're going to abandon ship, God bless you. The crew of the Shiji was so bachelorish that they dropped the intercom as soon as they finished speaking.

"Hey~"

"Hey~"

The liaison continued to shout, he was going crazy. These crew members are all grouper heads, and there are stones in them.

He has a hundred ways to stop the ship, and he hasn't said yet!

"Toot ~"

A low whistle echoed over the empty sky of Port Pierce.

The originally cheerful atmosphere in the harbor became tense because of the approaching Shike.

Closer, they could already see the building-like body of the Shiki. But this steel behemoth has no intention of slowing down.

Even, it's getting faster a little bit.

The black smoke from the diesel engine continued to emerge from the rear of the cockpit along the flue, and the black smoke became thicker and thicker.

The people in the harbor were all stunned, until someone shouted, "Run!" and those who were close to the harbor woke up like a dream and ran away into the distance.

Several tugboats were chasing the Shikee, trying to get close to the Shike and push it away.

Their efforts were useless, and the tugboat's small size made it impossible for Ben to get close to the Shiki.

It was also at this time that the personnel on the tugboat discovered the huge ship Shiji, and the name of the ship painted on the side of the ship was very strange.

It's a kanji they don't recognize!

In an atmosphere of despair, the Shiji appeared in front of the harbor of Port Pierce with an inertia of terror unparalleled. It was like a monster, baring its huge fangs towards Port Pierce.

The tugboat fled in a panic.

Huge waves crashed on the shore, setting off dozens of meters of waves.

The next second.

The sky and the earth trembled violently.

Even citizens who lived more than ten miles away heard this loud sound in the night, making them unforgettable for the rest of their lives.

At this moment, the concrete-poured port side became fragile.

The harbor crane shook violently in the unimaginable force of impact.

When the loud noise finally stopped, the entire harbor was in ruins, and the Shiji that caused the accident also ushered in the sinking end.

However, the sinking was only the beginning.
