One nautical mile west of Yangshan Harbor, the Expedition is rising and falling with the waves, and it has been floating in this position for more than three hours.
The prototype of the Expedition was a large ocean-going whaling ship with a displacement of more than 700 tons, a maximum speed of 20 knots, and good maneuverability and maneuverability. Although it has been modified, it still retains a huge whaling cannon in the bow, and as a secret piece of equipment for the Yog Academy, it is equipped with a concealed cannon, as well as a torpedo launcher that can even fire missiles if needed.
According to the original plan, the explorers were supposed to be an important base for this operation, docking on the west bank of Yangshan Port and allowing the operatives to land from there. But last night, when driving about 500 meters from Yangshan Port, the crew suddenly exclaimed that the ship's instruments had failed. The incident happened suddenly, and the captain was worried that something might happen if he continued to move forward, so he decided to turn around and sail until all the equipment on the ship was restored to normal, and then gave the order to drop anchor.
It was 5 o'clock in the morning, the sky was just white, although it was a sunny day, but the wind on the sea was not small, the blue water kept rolling under the blowing of the morning wind, but such waves were far from threatening the Explorer, it was firmly entrenched on the crest of the waves, like a quiet killer. And on the spacious deck of the Explorer, there were 3 people standing.
"Miracle, miracle! See, this is the power of God!" spoke a thin old man, who was clutching the railing of the bow of the boat, his body trembling with excitement. Professor Kerry, the head of Operation Yangshan, was also the captain of the Expedition.
There's a reason for Kerry's shock. Although it was just past 5 o'clock, the sky had already lit up, and from where they were, it was a very shocking sight. The endless sea water was separated, a huge hollow, and there was a large pit with a radius of several kilometers on the sea surface, and the bottom of the pit was nearly dozens of meters lower than the sea level, and Yangshan Port was actually in this pit. Is Yangshan Port sinking, or is the sea level rising? In any case, the raging sea water should immediately fill this pit and engulf Yangshan Port. But this is not the case, the turbulent sea water is rejected, as if there is a huge glass cover blocking the entry of the sea water, so that Yangshan Port lies quietly below sea level.
"It's a miracle indeed, and it looks like what we're looking for is likely to be right here. He was answered by a handsome young man, standing straight to the right of Kerry, his black trench coat rattling in the sea breeze. Unlike Kerry's hysteria, his tone was light, but he clenched his fists. Liu Tianyi, the leader of the first team, was the foreign aid of this operation.
"I can't see the second group of people. "A lighter voice, a beautiful female voice. Facing the shocking scene in front of him, there was no trace of turbulence in his tone. Liu Qian, a member of the third group, wears a light gray tracksuit from head to toe and also wears a hood on her head.
"They're supposed to have landed on the island, right?" said Kerry, looking back, a little puzzled.
"Probably, then they really have a hand" An intriguing smile appeared on Liu Tianyi's face.
Up to 10 seconds of silence. Suddenly, Kerry cried out, "Oh my God, such a high drop, did they fly down?"
"I think it's planted. Liu Tianyi almost laughed, "Professor, haven't you woken up yet?"
"Oh my God, oh my God! Are they on the island? No, should they say they're still alive? Are these guys crazy? Rushing down such a deep pit without looking? How am I going to report to headquarters?" Kerry almost went crazy, pulling at what little hair he had left.
"Professor, did you know? The second group is crazy, so it's very in line with their style, isn't it?" Liu Tianyi spread his hands, looking disapplied.
"But, but......" Kerry was already a little out of breath. He paused, closed his eyes and took a long, deep breath, "Alright, guys, we need a rescue plan. He finally calmed down and said solemnly.
There was silence in the captain's command room, and everyone was waiting for the captain's instructions.
Kerry strode up to the projector, pointed to the map on the screen, and said slowly, "Yangshan Port was built in 2005 and officially completed in 2017, and it is the world's largest container port from completion until today, carrying one-tenth of the world's container throughput. Previously, Yangshan Port was connected to Pudong by the Donghai Bridge, but the accident two years ago caused the collapse of the Donghai Bridge, and the steamship basically became the only way to transport goods from Yangshan Port, but this did not shake the important position of Yangshan Port. But this time, Yangshan Port has been paralyzed for nearly a week, and the relevant departments have tried to prevent the situation from expanding for a week, and many mitigation methods have been taken, but many freight companies have not wanted to wait any longer and have switched to other ports. We received a commission three days ago to look for a solution, but probably for confidentiality reasons, we did not know the exact course of the incident and the specific state of affairs, only that there was something unknown that interfered with the normal operation of the port. ”
Kerry paused: "Judging from what we have learned so far, the seriousness of the matter has far exceeded our prediction, it is obvious that such a shocking scene cannot be explained by normal views, I think we have encountered God!"
There was a whisper all around. Kerry motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then continued, "As a member of the Juggar Academy, I believe you all know more or less about the God I am talking about. Yes, I mean, what we've been looking for is probably on this island. We may have the opportunity to see their power up close. ”
"But before that, we already had a group that had fallen into God's territory without knowing it, and was in extreme danger. So, we have to find a way to save them first. ”
"First mate, will our dive pod still work?" Kerry shouted.
"Yes, anytime. ”
"Very well, since we can't walk from the water, let's go underwater. As long as you dive to the same level as Yangshan Port, it is as easy as walking to Yangshan Port. The second mate said happily.
"I'm afraid it's not that easy. If there were no obstacles underwater, Yangshan Port would have been flooded by the influx of seawater. He Qian reminded.
"That's right, even if there is a possibility of breaking through underwater, it is definitely not something that our diving chamber can do, its power is too weak. Liu Tianyi stood up and said with a beaming look, "So the only way now is from the air." ”
"You mean fly over? No, no, no, as far as we know, there have been a lot of planes trying to fly to Yangshan Harbor that have crashed into this area, and there is an unexplained magnetic field here, which is why our instruments suddenly failed last night. What's more, we are not equipped with planes at all. The second mate explained.
"Well, it's tricky, if the Tokai Bridge hadn't been destroyed by the accident two years ago, we could have driven over it and had a good time. Kerry chuckled wryly, "What other good ideas." ”
"I think I have an idea. Liu Tian paused, "However, it may only be a one-way trip." There was a slight commotion in the crowd, but Liu Tianyi didn't even look at them, he walked straight to He Qian, smiled and said, "Miss He, there are only me and you left among the deep divers here, in other words, only the two of us are qualified to enter the territory of the gods." ”
He said it unabashedly, but no one stood up to contradict him, because he was telling the truth. God is not something that everyone can touch, and it is understood that a look or a word from God may make ordinary people's spirits collapse. The so-called deep divers refer to people who have been in contact with, and even comprehended part of the power of the gods, this operation, including the 4 people of the second group, sent a total of 5 deep divers, Liu Tianyi is one of them, and He Qian is also.
"I know you must be very worried about Song Xiaoxue's safety now, so I don't know if you are interested in walking with me?" Liu Tianyi finished speaking, looking at He Qian with interest.
"Tell me about it. He Qian looked directly into Liu Tianyi's eyes and said lightly.
"It's too easy!" Liu Tian strode to the glass window in front of the command room, "Look, everyone is familiar with the big guy at the bow of the ship, right?"
"You mean the whaling cannon?" Kerry was a little puzzled.
"That's right, it's it! What is its effective range?"
"50 meters!" Although it is no longer a whaling ship, the Expedition is still equipped with the best whaling guns, and it is ......," the second mate replied preemptively.
"Enough. Liu Tianyi interrupted him, "Then what is the closest distance between the place where the sea water fell and the port?"
"No more than 20 meters. ”
"Very well, so will our boat be able to get 20 meters away from where the water falls and stop there?"
"In fact, if it was just a failure, I could go up to 10 meters and break down. The second mate replied.
"Wait, wait, what do you mean?" Kerry interrupted their conversation.
"I mean, let the Expedition venture 10 to 20 meters away from where the water falls, shoot the container in the harbor with the whaling cannon, and finally, I can slide down the rope fired by the whaling cannon to Yangshan Harbor. Liu Tianyi stroked his hair, "Falling from the sky." ”
"Well, that sounds like a good idea. Kerry paced for a moment, "And how are you going to get back?"
"As I said, it's a one-way trip. ”
"No! Kerry said categorically.
"I'll go with you. He Qian said calmly.
"Pretty, I knew you would say that. Liu Tianyi snapped his fingers happily, then turned to the captain, "Don't worry, I'm kidding, I don't plan to run back, because I believe I can definitely find the truth behind the matter." I'll clear the guys in Yangshan Harbor and wait for you to pick me up, so can you accept it?"
"No, no, even if you eliminate this strange field, things won't settle down. The second officer jumped out, "You see, the sea water gathered by this field has caused the sea level around Yangshan Port to rise by nearly 30 meters for more than ten nautical miles, if this field suddenly disappears, such a huge amount of sea water may instantly engulf Yangshan Port, and it will be a huge tsunami for you! At that time, if we are still on the sea dozens of meters outside Yangshan Port, our ship will be thrown directly onto the island, and it will be difficult to protect itself, let alone rescue you." The second officer was so excited that his face was flushed.
It was only then that everyone noticed that they were ignoring such an important issue. The command room fell silent again, and Liu Tianyi also realized that he couldn't find a perfect reason to refute the second mate, so he also sat down again. Everyone frowned, and Kerry walked anxiously around the command room.
"Do what Liu Tianyi said. Suddenly, an old voice came from the loudspeaker. The dean's voice, everyone remembered that the dean's call had been answered at the beginning of the meeting, and the dean had been silently listening from the beginning to the present. Now that the dean had spoken, he coughed a few times and continued: "The expedition will first use Liu Tianyi's method to send them to the island, and then immediately sail back, 10 nautical miles away, and I will send another helicopter to the ship to stand by together." Liu Tianyi remembered to bring a signal flare, once the scene was lifted, immediately send a signal, the helicopter will come to meet you in the fastest time, before the helicopter arrives, try to find reliable shelter, over. ”
The call was cut off, and there was a brief silence in the command room, before Kerry turned to the second officer, "Anchor!" he said.
