Chapter 231: Storm Fury (02)
The drilling platform that has been seriously tilted shook violently in the turbulent waves, the overall structure has been deformed, and it did not take long for it to begin to crumble and collapse, and it may fall apart and sink to the bottom of the sea at any time, and the three of them rushed to the edge desperately, Matthew had already driven the boat over, but because the surge was too big, he didn't dare to get too close, once he was lifted by the waves and hit the drilling platform, the ship would be shattered instantly, so when they rushed to the edge of the platform, they were actually nearly 20 meters away from the fishing boat.
"I can't get any closer, it's too big......" HK stood on the boat and watched them punch them on the edge of the platform.
"Damn, you're letting us jump into the sea!" The ghost knew at a glance that at this distance, they could only jump into the sea and swim on the boat, but under such a big wind and waves, they were looking for death.
Suddenly, there was a sound of steel breaking overhead, because the seriously deformed and twisted platform had begun to collapse, a large number of steel beams fell off and fell, falling nearby like rain and smashing with a loud noise, and the whole platform trembled even more violently.
"It's too late, let's go fast." The heavy punch didn't have time to think about it at all, and he plunged down from the platform, falling directly into the huge waves, because the distance was too high, the impact of entering the water made him all kinds of meat, and he struggled for a long time before he poked his head out of the water, and was thrown into the air by the huge waves first, at that moment, he saw ghosts and insects entering the water one after another, and disappeared in an instant.
HK immediately ordered someone to throw the rope, and soon, seven or eight long ropes were thrown into the sea, but under such a huge surge, whether these ropes could be caught by them, but it was still unknown, the rope was not controlled at all, and the role was very limited, at this moment, with a loud sound of metal breaking, the platform began to collapse and shatter rapidly, and countless messy things fell one after another, although the fishing boat was still more than 20 meters away from the platform, the things that fell on it threatened them all the time.
"We've got to go." Matthew wanted to run away as soon as he saw that the situation was not good, but HK insisted on waiting a little longer, and then lay on the side of the bed staring at the turbulent sea with his eyes unblinking, but he couldn't see anything but the waves, and they disappeared as if they were swept into the bottom of the sea by a huge wave.
"Drive over and go around in circles." HK yelled at Matthew without giving up.
"Are you crazy?" Matthew didn't dare to lean in, even if he didn't worry about the waves lifting them onto the collapsing platform, he didn't want to be hit by the things that fell from above, as long as a steel beam could directly penetrate their broken ship, it would really be ruined.
"We can't just leave it alone, leaving now is equivalent to us killing them." HK yelled.
"They definitely won't be able to come up, the waves are too big, you can't put all of our lives on the line for a few people who are already finished, not to mention that they are not our people." Matthew clearly didn't look like he was following his orders.
"But they're here with us." HK yelled, "We can't ignore things, and we can't die without help." ”
Although Matthew was unwilling, he still gritted his teeth, and leaned up on the rudder, but his eyes kept staring at the things that fell above, and kept changing the direction of the boat, but it was difficult for the fishing boat to control under such a big wave, and he took a huge risk to lean forward for more than ten meters and did not dare to go further, but turned the rudder, made a bend and rushed out, the whole process HK always stared at the sea, and what disappointed him was that he didn't see the shadow of any of them at all, The occasional flash of lightning illuminates the sea, and nothing can be seen except for the waves and walls of water.
"This can't stay any longer, there will be a big whirlpool when the platform sinks, and if you suck it in, it's all over." Matthew finally couldn't hold his breath, he didn't want to take any more risks.
"Let's go!" HK closed his eyes, he knew that the heavy punch was over for them, and it was estimated that the three of them had been thrown into the sea by the huge waves, and in this case, it was impossible for anyone to survive.
The fishing boat rushed in the opposite direction of the drilling platform against the wind and waves, and the huge swell rose high to form an endless wall of water in front of them, and the fishing boat rushed forward at full speed like a mad ant, but it looked as if it was standing still under the huge waves, and the power of the fishing boat was simply weak in front of nature.
"It's over......" Matthew started the spare motor, although the fishing boat looks tattered on the surface, but in fact the interior has been reinforced and modified, and there is no difference in the usual use of traditional power, and when the two spare motor systems are started at the same time, the power of the boat can be increased by as much as three times.
The fishing boat struggled to win the wall of water and rushed up, but the huge wall of water was getting higher and higher, and the whole boat was completely erected, as if a small ant had climbed the wall, but the difference was that the wall of water was moving, and it had the tendency to gather bigger and bigger, and finally, it was like a huge mountain peak toppling over.
Matthew roared and stared at the wall of water with his eyes wide open, controlling the fishing boat to rush upwards, and HK and his men had fixed themselves in the cabin, grabbing the things around them and letting the waves jolt, waiting for Ben to be smashed to pieces by the huge wall of water......
When the water wall was about to fall, the fishing boat finally rushed to the top, followed by the whole water wall like a mountain and a sea of thunder, the drilling platform that had been seriously damaged was shattered by the moment of the overbearing huge force, the completely inclined base was smashed to pieces, this drilling platform designed to withstand ten wind and waves was turned into a pile of scrap iron sinking to the bottom of the sea under the impact of man-made destruction and nature, only a few load-bearing piles and half of the base were left in the turbulent waves, ups and downs......
Almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the fishing boat crashed against the water wall, but they also knew that in this storm, this was just a small episode, and a more dangerous situation could arise at any time.
"Someone in the back ......" suddenly shouted the person in the aft compartment in the headset.
HK was startled, immediately unfastened the fixed lock and rushed back, only to be overturned on the warehouse by the bumpy waves, he rushed to the tail cabin with a roll, and sure enough, he saw a figure floating in the water on the turbulent sea, and he immediately reacted to what was going on: "Rope, someone grabbed the rope, pull him up quickly." ”
They had thrown out a dozen ropes before, but they withdrew after thinking that there was no hope, and they didn't have time to retract the ropes under such a big wave, so they let the ropes float in the sea, but they didn't expect someone to catch the ropes......
Everyone immediately began to recycle the ropes, but it took a long time to find that the ropes were empty, and it was not until they received the seventh rope that they felt the weight, and several people took the rope back together, only to see heavy punches, insects and ghosts, like a string of grasshoppers hanging behind the rope, and had fallen into a semi-coma under the raging waves, I really don't know how these three people tied themselves to the rope, otherwise it would be impossible to rely on the strength of both hands to persist until now, and have long been swept away by the waves.
After the three people were pulled up, they began to lie on the deck and spit water, in this case, there was no way to rescue them, HK could only fix them in the cabin, the three of them spit out a lot of seawater, under such a big wind and waves, even if the water is good, it is useless, from the state of the three of them, it can be seen that although they touched the rope to fix themselves, but they could not turn out of the sea in time to ventilate, there must be a long time, a period of time was dragged underwater, so it was so embarrassed, It is estimated that they were under the water during the time the fishing boat climbed the water wall, but fortunately, the rope they grabbed was not twisted by the propeller of the fishing boat, otherwise they would have really died at the bottom of the sea.
After spitting up water for a long time, the three of them were all languishing and motionless, and they didn't know if they were alive or dead, under the violent bumps, it took a long time for the heavy punch to wake up, but it was just a look up and fainted again, which made HK breathe a sigh of relief, this little life of the heavy punch was saved, and the other two people should not have much of a problem.
When he woke up, the storm had not ended, the fishing boat was still fighting with the wind and waves, the turbulence was terrible, everyone in the dim cabin was shaking with the violent turbulence of the waves, no one spoke, no one moved, he only felt that his brain was blank, as if his thoughts had been withdrawn, only a shell remained, he couldn't even think, he didn't know where he was, he didn't know what was going on, his body was sore, his headache was terrible, and he didn't know how long it took to fall asleep again.
When he woke up again, the storm had subsided, and Punch thought about it carefully, but still didn't understand how he got back to the ship.
"Wake up, how do you feel?" HK asked on the side.
"Hmm......" The heavy punch didn't want to say a word, his head still hurt, and his whole body was weak and weak.
"We've got through this." HK said.
"Finally got a life back." Worm said in the dark, it turned out that she had woken up a long time ago and had not spoken.
"Grandma's, I was almost killed by you." The ghost shadow also said weakly on the side, he had also been awake for a while.
Listening to the two of them after saying a sentence to the heavy punch probably understood what was going on, it turned out that he fell into the water and was knocked out by the waves, it was the worm that caught him in time to not sink, the worm's luck is really good, he caught a rope not long after he fell into the water, it was by this rope that he found the heavy punch and ghost shadow one after another, but they have been pressed under the water and can't raise their heads, so they drink a lot of water, if someone doesn't find it in time, they estimate that even if the rope continues, they may not last long.
"I owe you my life." Heavy punch said to the worm that if it weren't for the worm and catch him, he wouldn't be alive now.
"Actually, we were lucky, I was also hit and dizzy after I jumped, and I grabbed the rope when I swam to the surface in a panic." I still have lingering palpitations about all the insects that happened before, and it can really be regarded as a life of nine deaths.
"It seems that our rope throwing method still works." HK was also relieved after hearing this.
"Were you hesitant to leave us alone?" Heavy Punch asked suddenly.
"Of course not." HK said, however, he did think so in his heart, but his conscience still made him make some efforts for it, and it was precisely his efforts that saved the lives of the three people, if he hadn't insisted on telling Matthew to drive the fishing boat around, the worm would not have had a chance to catch the rope, all of which can be said to be the result of a mistake.
"We're going to have to say thank you anyway." Heavy Punch didn't want to dwell on this issue any longer, and he knew that it wasn't a bad choice to abandon them in that situation to protect himself, but HK's actions did save them, and there was no need to pursue it any further.
"Your investigation work is really not thorough, this storm is more than twice as big as you expected!" The ghost said.
"It's normal for weather forecasts to be incorrect, and I can't help it." HK said helplessly.
"One of you can't help it, and it almost turned us into fish droppings." The ghost rubbed his smashed shoulder, which was now red and swollen, numb and stiff, though it was fine.
"Anyway, it's all gone." The heavy fist untied the rope that fixed the body and lay directly on the deck, and his whole body was still limp and still unable to exert his strength.
"Where are we?" The ghost figure looked out, the light outside was extremely chaotic, and the occasional lightning river shone on the surface of the sea, and the dark clouds in the sky almost pressed on his head.
"It's already on the high seas, not far from another drilling platform." HK said.
"We're not in great shape right now, how long will it take?" The ghost asked again.
"If the wind and waves are not strengthening, it is expected to arrive in two hours." HK said.
"It's damn weather, I don't see the slightest sunny meaning." The ghost scolded.
"This turmoil will continue for at least a day, and it is likely to become stronger again." HK took a piece of chocolate from his equipment and took a bite, "However, this storm did help us destroy the previous drilling platform, and it would have taken a long time to achieve that effect if we had just relied on blasting, and the surging waves accelerated the destruction of the entire platform." ”
"It almost killed us, too." When the ghost saw him eating, he immediately felt that his stomach was growling, so he also turned out his things and began to replenish his strength.
"In short, everything that happened there was much faster than we expected, and if it weren't for the fact that one of the load-bearing piles was hit by a rocket and then smashed by a collapsed borehole, the whole platform would not have lost its balance so quickly, tilted, twisted and deformed under the action of the waves, and finally sank." "And those enemies fought quite tenaciously and reacted much faster, and if it weren't for such a big storm, I believe it would have been very difficult for us to get out." ”
In fact, there is another point he didn't say, that is, their previous blasting had caused some damage to the load-bearing column.
The ghost had a very different opinion from him: "That's different, if it weren't for the rapid collapse of the platform, we probably wouldn't have almost died." ”
"Judging from the situation of this encounter, the combat effectiveness of these people under the 'Clock Tower' is indeed okay, and we have been forced to have no way out several times, although we escaped, but if it is a head-on conflict, even if we can win, it will be very difficult." Heavy punch said.
"There are more of them on the next platform than before, but don't worry, it shouldn't be a problem for us to continue to sneak attack." HK finished the chocolate in his hand.
"Why don't you just summon a cruise missile." The ghost said in a shadowy voice.
"The political risks are too great, and no one can afford to take this responsibility, and would rather let us die than do that." HK smiled wryly, "Human life is worthless in the face of political risks." ”
"If you encounter a storm like the one before, it's still unknown how it will end, and besides, it's likely that the news has been received here, and maybe it's ready to meet the enemy." Worm said.
"Not necessarily! In that kind of storm conditions, communications would be severely disrupted, we would move so fast that they would most likely not have time to send any messages at all. "Chung is not too worried about that.
"If you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of what happened, who can be sure what the enemy did at that time?" The worm is still a little worried.
"The communication situation has not improved, and it is only now that it has been restored, and the situation at that time was more complicated, and it was unlikely that the information would be sent." "But we do have to prepare accordingly, and we can't be too careless." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and replenish your strength, take a rest, the situation is unpredictable, let's make all emergency preparations!" The ghost felt that there was no real point in speculating here.
"Well, that's right." Heavy Punch nodded.
"The 'Clock Tower' may not be able to figure out for a while whether the destruction of the platform is the cause of the storm, although the design of the drilling platform can be lower than the impact of such a large-scale storm, but to really find out what happened, I am afraid you have to look at the situation to know, if those few fixed piles did not sink to the bottom of the sea, the insider will know what happened at a glance." "Whatever the outcome, we're halfway there, and I'd like the Clock Tower to find out the cause of the accident as soon as possible, and we're here to let them know we're destroying their industry, aren't we?" ”
"Don't think about this problem for now, let's get the next drilling rig!" I didn't plan to think so far ahead, the problem in front of me has not been solved, what's the use of thinking so far?
"As long as you want, you can directly issue a statement like a terrorist and say that you are responsible for this incident." The ghost came to say this.
"I'm not that bored yet." HK is starting to bother to talk to the ghost.
"Actually, what we're doing now is similar to terrorists to some extent, except that we're more targeted, grandma's, it's not a fucking human job at all." The ghost scolded.
"Maybe we're just going to make the 'Clock Tower' lose some money, at most to stimulate their nerves and make them angry, can we really achieve what we want? I'm afraid this is still unknown. "The worm doesn't seem to have much hope for that...... Read the latest chapter of "God of War: Reborn Soldier of the Bloodless Blade Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
