Chapter 414: Shipwrecked

Because of the warm Pacific Ocean Currents and the climate, ships traveling from San Francisco to major countries generally make a large circle and take the longer Atlantic route.

Ordinary freighters often have to stop at the port several times for a trip, and it takes a month and a half to go a little slower.

In order to be in a hurry, and also to avoid being noticed, Ma Tengfei specially asked James to prepare a cargo ship bound for Canada, and then changed the route halfway through, passing through the Pacific Ocean to Dalian Port.

Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Early this morning, Ma Tengfei and Le Yumo stood at the bow of the boat together, facing the blowing sea breeze and looking at the end of the sea.

The sea was sparkling, and the hull of the ship was slightly undulating.

Le Yumo has been in a better mood recently, squinting his eyes slightly lazily, enjoying the sea breeze, and asking Ma Tengfei, "We should be almost there, right?"

Ma Tengfei went to the captain's room every day these days.

Wen Yan smiled: "It's still early." ”

Le Yumo said unbelievably: "I checked on the Internet, if it is fast from Shanghai to San Francisco, it will take half a month, if it is direct, it will only be about eight to ten days, and today is already the seventh day, why is it still early?"

Ma Tengfei said: "I don't understand, it seems to be a headwind or something, anyway, if it weren't for us, people wouldn't take this line." I haven't entered the waters of the island country yet, and when I see the island country, I will almost get home. ”

Le Yumo sighed.

Although both of them are high-achieving students, few people can remember the geography knowledge of junior high school for a lifetime if they don't use it.

At this moment, Ma Tengfei suddenly found that the sea level seemed a little strange in the far ahead.

Almost at the same time, the wind around the two suddenly became much stronger.

"I'm X, it's not going to be a typhoon, is it?"

The climate at sea is changing rapidly, and it seems normal for the weather forecast to not even report rain, and occasionally to miss a typhoon.

In fact, many typhoons are detected after they have formed, and this is obviously the same this time.

Almost instantly, the wind strength had increased from about five levels just now to more than nine levels.

Le Yumo was blown backwards by the strong wind.

Ma Tengfei was quick-eyed, grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, picked her up and ran to the cabin.

At this time, the crew in the cabin also discovered the situation, although they have been walking on the sea for many years and have seen a lot of typhoons, but it is relatively rare to think that this time it is so ferocious.

Ma Tengfei ran into the cabin, put Le Yumo down, and looked at the hurried crew, knowing that this typhoon was very dangerous.

"Sister, you go back to the house and wait for a while, now the hull of the ship is shaking so badly, it is easy to bruise if you fall. ”

"What about you?"

"I'll go to the captain and see what the wind is like. ”

After Ma Tengfei finished speaking, he smiled again, and pretended to comfort easily: "Don't worry too much, it is said that when there is a typhoon, the aircraft carrier will drive to the depths of the ocean, because the wind and waves inside are light, and it is safer than the dock, maybe this wind is a normal phenomenon." ”

Le Yumo nodded.

Although the crew was nervous, they were not too flustered.

Maybe I've encountered too many typhoons, and it's no longer strange.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the waves on the sea are constantly creating new highs, and Le Yumo's room is not far from the side, holding on to the wall with both hands and slowly walking back.

Ma Tengfei ran quickly to the control room, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard the captain roaring inside.

"Quick, stevedores, get them all nervous, and throw all the cargo they can into the sea. ”

"Billups, you have to take control of the rudder for me, and now that the lives of the whole ship are in your hands, put all your attention where you ought to be. ”

A crew member next to him suddenly shouted: "Captain Kemp, we just received a typhoon warning, let us choose to dock at the nearest refuge port." ”

"Fuck it. ”

The captain scolded angrily: "The typhoon has already blown to Lao Tzu's crotch, and his mother only gave Lao Tzu an alarm at this time. ”

Ma Tengfei originally wanted to ask something, but after hearing these shouts, there was no need for it.

Even the old camp, who has been running a sea ship for half his life, is so nervous, it seems that this typhoon is really bad and auspicious.

The wind is getting stronger.

From level nine to level twelve.

The freighter was so undulating that when the ship descended rapidly from the crest of the waves, even people's feet were thrown off the ground.

A forklift was bumped into the sea when it was unloaded close to the edge of the ship, and the unloading speed on both sides of the hull was greatly affected by the lack of a forklift, and as time went on, most of the cargo on the left side of the ship had been unloaded, but less than a third had been unloaded on the right side.

In the midst of big ups and downs, the balance of the hull is particularly important.

The weight difference between the two sides of the hull is too large, which can easily lead to capsizing.

The experienced captain and first mate quickly noticed the problem from the unstable shaking of the hull, and they tried to make adjustments, but at this time the wind on the ship was too strong, and even with ropes attached, they could not guarantee that they would be able to get out safely.

In front of nature, Ma Tengfei felt so small for the first time.

He quietly returned to the room and prayed quietly with Le Yumo.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a dull 'click'.

Then the hull of the ship tilted violently, and in the blink of an eye, it tilted into a forty-degree angle.

"It's over. ”

Ma Tengfei's heart tightened.

The freighter did not capsize, it was directly turned in two by the waves.

In this case, the ship sank very quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, and most of the hull had already sunk to the bottom of the sea.

The hull of the ship tilted too fast, and Le Yumo and Ma Tengfei were pulled to the side by gravity at the same time.

During the gliding, Le Yumo let out an exclamation, Ma Tengfei hurriedly hugged her, protected her with his body in front of his chest, and slammed his back into the bulkhead, and then saw the sea water bubbling in through the crack in the door of the room, and soon flowed in front of Ma Tengfei and Le Yumo.

"Tengfei, what now?"

At this time, the shaking of the hull was already very small, and it should have begun to sink.

Le Yumo climbed out of Ma Tengfei's arms, looked at the crack in the door that seeped water, and then looked at the scattered sheets and towel quilts next to him, probably considering whether the crack in the door could be sealed, so that the air in the room could support at least a while, and maybe wait for rescue.

There was a Category 12 typhoon outside, and even if you could escape from the boat, you would still die when you reached the sea.

And when the ship sinks, it will bring up a huge whirlpool.

The reason why many wrecked ships can't find people is because the whirlpool sucks people into the bottom of the sea, and it is simply impossible to rush out with a full breath.

What to do?

Ma Tengfei's brows furrowed.

He also has a mage skill self-selection scroll in his hand, because he has been struggling with whether to choose teleportation or magic shield, Ma Tengfei has not chosen to extract it until now.

If nothing else, teleportation could easily take him out of the seabed.

You can wait until the typhoon passes, and after the wind and waves are calm, you can set up a lifebuoy and teleport to the sea, and then wait for rescue on the sea.

But.

I have a way to escape, what should I do with Le Yumo?

You can't bring anyone else with you in a flash.
