Vol 2 Chapter 452: "Exile"

"Hey, it's me, Leo."
The sound of page turning sounded, and the screen gradually changed color. At dusk, the phone placed on the entrance shoe cabinet was answered. One hand picked up the microphone. The golden sunlight left a faint spot on the magazine. Outside the door, the children were Running wild in the yard, even though the laughter was cut by the closed doors and windows, Leo could still hear the lively laughter of the children.
"Leo, I want to talk to you carefully, a new job."
Leo’s face didn’t come into the mirror directly, but gave Tina, who had just come out of the kitchen with a turkey in her hand, a close-up of her face. The smile on her face gradually disappeared, her emotions were mixed, and the camera began to move. From the perspective, he looked at Leo who was standing at the door calling.
He seemed to notice someone behind him, turned his head, half of his face hiding from the sun, in the shadow, seeing her holding the baking tray in both hands, so he walked two steps forward and opened the door.
In an instant, children’s laughter, adults’ small talk, comfortable country music, accompanied by a breeze, blew into the room, the books on the shoe cabinet were blown, the pages turned quickly, clashed, clashed, until they were covered Ao held it down again, and pressed a bunch of keys on the book.
The fiancee was looking at him. This was causing Leo a headache. Her index and middle fingers rubbed her forehead. Seeing Tina still hadn't walked out the door, her voice weakened a bit from the voice on the phone.
"Please Paul, I've just become a father, and the 14th of next month will be my daughter's first birthday, and I will be planning a wedding with Tina. Sorry, I really don't have time."
"I know, I'm sorry too, but we do need your help. I assure you that we will return to the voyage regardless of whether the task is completed or not. We will return to the voyage on the 14th of next month. Then I will I will also attend Kara’s birthday party, OK?"
"You are embarrassing me, my family needs me now."
"Yes, I'm sorry, but the other party is National Geographic and is willing to pay us a weekly salary of 20,000 yuan. Think about you coming back next month with 80,000 yuan and giving Tina a big diamond ring, how about it?"
Diamond ring...
Removed the key from the magazine and opened it gently. A pair of brown-pupil eyes were staring at the magazine page in a trance, and her head moved over again. Tina was still standing there. After staring at each other, Leo diverted her gaze again.
"What are you looking for?"
"That northern blue whale."
"You are joking?"
Just last week, a fishing boat spotted a huge northern blue whale near the Gulf of Mexico in the North Atlantic Ocean. According to video conditions, it was speculated that the northern blue whale was over 32 meters in size.
As one of the blue whale subspecies, the northern blue whale is slightly smaller than other subspecies. The body of an adult male blue whale is about 25 meters, and the body of an adult female blue whale is about 23 meters. Around, of course, with age, the body shape will continue to grow, and the length of 27 meters to 30 meters is considered a reasonable range.
The monster in the video is conservatively estimated to be more than 32 meters. God knows how old it lived and how much it ate. If you find it and measure it to confirm its length, then this northern blue whale will be so far. So far, the largest North Atlantic blue whale subspecies discovered by humans.
As soon as the video was released, it caused a sensation in the industry. At first, some people questioned the authenticity of the video, but after testing, the video did not falsify. As a less well-known oceanographer, he naturally heard about it.
Moreover, if its size exceeds 33 meters, it will break the maximum growth limit of the blue whale known to mankind. For such a valuable creature, scholars will naturally organize a team to search for it.
This is not surprising. What he puzzled was that National Geographic wanted to take the guy out of the Atlantic Ocean in a month, but it didn't seem to be realistic.
"It's not that we want to find it in a month, but it only gives us nearly a month to discover it. At present, it is following a group of people with a relatively fixed range of activities, and it does not drift out of our observation range. But the bad news is that the weather station predicts that a cold air current will reach the North Atlantic next month, and the temperature may be as low as ten degrees or less. You know they don’t like cold. If they really get out of the circle, we will think again. It’s even harder to find it."
"But it's still difficult."
"That's what they should think about. They found it. They have to pay us bonuses. If they can't find it, he has to give me my salary. One month, just one month, at least 80,000 yuan."
As a father and a man who is about to marry his fiancée, his financial ability is indeed a bit embarrassing now, so he was moved by this generous remuneration, and gradually had an idea in his heart, even if he was very reluctant to work with the professional team of National Geographic. Contacts.
Those people have rich funds, professional teams, and a lot of big cows. These are all advantages, but their attitude towards temporary workers like Rio is not friendly, and they have a sense of superiority.
They hired scholars like Leo, just to beat those big bulls, diverge their thinking, and act as a clown with a professional foundation when recording a documentary on the big bulls, and throw out all kinds of remarks against the big bulls’ predictions. , And then wait for the face to be beaten, to improve entertainment, can be sold to the TV station for a good price.
Of course, the premise is that your negative remarks must be reasonable and professional. This is not just an ordinary act of slaps on the face, but a very intense discussion from the outside.
Leo doesn't want to be a clown, but for ordinary scholars like him who only work in school and have no professional team to appreciate and absorb, this is their way of survival.
Behind the scenes, Tina is still watching him, which makes it difficult for him to agree to Paul directly without making this decision after consulting with his fiancee.
"I will think about it and I will give you an answer tomorrow at the latest."
"Well, you have to hurry up, and we will leave in four days."
"can."
This is a very hasty time. Of course, this is for Leo alone, and the team must have been fully prepared, leaving him alone to passively accept this stipulation.
After hanging up the phone, the room quieted down. He looked at Tina with some anxiety, rubbing his fingers together, looking at her calm eyes, and pointing out the window again.
"They can't wait, let's go out."
"Leo."
"Ok?"
She looked very plain, no irritation or sadness in her eyes, just looking at him quietly, still holding the plate of turkey that was roasted to reddening and appetizing.
"Can you not go this time? Lucy will be one year old soon, and she will be able to call your father soon. I don't want you to leave at this time. I don't think you want that."
"I know, but you also have to believe in my baby. It's only a month, and I won't stay more than a day."
"Are you moved by their salary?"
"I don't deny it. After all, the family really needs money now, and I think this wedding dress is really suitable for you."
He picked up the magazine, and on the page he turned over, there was a wedding dress that looked very expensive. The price below confirmed Tina's guess, yes, it was really expensive.
"If it's because of the wedding dress, I think you should stay. I don't need such flamboyant decorations. What I need is Lucy's father to be with me and my children."
The two did not quarrel, and analyzed very calmly what the job could bring. She was moved and it was true, but at this point in time, she desperately needed a sense of security, and it was true.
Her words made Leo hesitate for a long time. He leaned on the shoe cabinet and rolled the magazine into a cylindrical shape and held it in his hand. He was in a daze, brainstorming in his mind, weighing the pros and cons of this job, and finally, he was stretched out of savings. Can't resist the temptation of high salary, 80,000 a month, he wants to try.
Finally, he spoke, and Tina also got a disappointing result for her, although she would not be angry with Leo because he set out before the child's birthday and wedding, and it was precisely for the family.
"I'll be back on time in a month with that wedding dress. If you can, Lucy must call me when she can talk."
...
With fast montage editing, organizing tools, packing books, loading a change of clothes, putting on a military green backpack, a strong lineup of folioists, a series of actions make sounds very clean and neat, without affecting the audience’s perception , To achieve the most comfortable effect of all sounds.
In the end, under the gaze of his family, he wore a green fisherman hat, a multi-pocket angler vest outside the vest, and the configuration of fitted overalls and Martin boots looked very well-proportioned.
He took off his sunglasses and hugged and parted with his family. Tina did not show any extreme emotions, because for so many years in love with Leo, the two have been in a situation where the two have been together and separated. Now he is leaving again. Naturally, all she can do is to take care of the children while Leo is at work and don't worry him.
Looking at the child in Tina’s arms, he stretched out his index finger and was held by the baby’s little hand, feeling the temperature of his child. The corner of his mouth was grinning slightly. It was obvious that he was also reluctant to give up and kissed gently Tina.
"wait me back."
"be careful."
Very little exchanges, but enough, the two sides don't want to make a short parting so sad, after all, they can meet again after a month.
After being sent off by his family, after he placed his backpack in the car, Paul was sitting in the main driver chewing gum, and did not dare to get out of the car to see the child. After all, he was not sure whether Tina would blame him.
Finally waved, everyone bid farewell, the Wrangler slowly started, the wheel began to spin, and soon disappeared from the sight of Leo's family.
...
"Gentlemen, the voyage is about to reach the end. I'm going down. Good luck!"
The roar of the helicopter concealed the roar of the pilot. Under downdrafts, even with a hat string on the chin, the hat could easily be blown off by the wind, but according to Paul's embarrassment, his image is always good, at least he With a hat, the hair does not stand up.
Due to time constraints, the National Geographic research ship had sailed out of the port yesterday, starting to search for the target at a speed of ten knots per hour, so that Leo and the others had to rely on a helicopter to board the ship, pack their bags, and press their hat with their right hand. Following Paul, the two men hunched down the plane and gave the pilot a thumbs up. When they were completely out of the propeller range, the wind rose again and the helicopter was ready to return.
"Field" has a total tonnage of about 3,000 tons, a displacement of 3,500 tons, a length of about 90 meters, a width of 16 meters, a draft of 5 meters, and a large number of sophisticated equipment, such as scientific research fishing probes, and multi-beam detection. The system, the shallow formation profiler, the CTD thermo-salt profiler, etc., the endurance can reach 15,000 nautical miles, what a great guy."
Leo looked at the hull, and Paul was on the side to explain it. It can be seen that Paul is very satisfied with the ship. It has a beautiful appearance, high-end equipment, new and clean rooms. It is undoubtedly the most comfortable to work on this ship.
The two were chatting. A man dressed a bit similar to Leo came out. Paul saw it and hurried to greet him. After the two shook hands, they also introduced Leo to the man. He was the scientific research project. The team leader Evans, he did not show the arrogance of the National Geographic employees, his attitude was not bad, he invited the two into the cabin, and signed the contract with them. From this moment on, both parties have already A contract for cooperation was reached.
This is not something that Leo is very familiar with, because although he has taken a lot of scientific examinations, most of them take students between the bay and the islands, such as following large professional newspapers such as National Geographic to the deep sea, and even He may sail out of the route and enter unmanned waters. In the nearly two decades since he has been engaged in oceanography, he has only a few times and does not have much experience.
Of course, this is why National Geographic is willing to hire Rio.
Afterwards, Leo left the room and took the initiative to get acquainted with the ship’s controllers such as the captain and chief mate, but did not see other members of the scientific expedition team until a sailor was preparing to take them to their bedroom, just as they were passing the deck Suddenly they heard the shout of one person, and the two of them stopped immediately.
"It's a whale!"
The photographer ran wild with the machine on his shoulders, went to the fence and pointed at the huge figure that was about to emerge from the water. Then a group of members of the scientific expedition team didn’t know where it came from, and it didn’t take long before they were all on the deck. Gather together.
Whales will float on the surface every ten minutes or so to breathe. Of course, because of the different species of whales, the duration of the breath will be slightly different, but they are roughly the same, so it is not a rare scene to see whales breathe after going out to sea. Everyone is a practitioner of oceanography. It is not uncommon to see this kind of scene, but this time the target is a whale, which is exciting.
But when this whale had just revealed a small part, it already disappointed everyone. This was not the blue whale, not even the blue whale, but the natural enemy of the blue whale, the killer whale.
It emerged from the deep blue sea bottom, spouting a stream of several meters high, and the water droplets even sprayed on Leo's body, forming a perfect rainbow in the sunlight.
With a long, slightly lonely cry, it jumped out of the sea, revealing its white belly, hitting a wave, and even the ship swayed slightly. At this time, no one regrets that it is not the target that everyone is looking for, because Every time I see a whale jumping in the water, it is a beautiful sight worth keeping in memory. It is a treasure of nature. If you can see it, you are already extremely lucky. What more can they ask for?
Perhaps it is because at a certain point in time, they witnessed this beautiful scenery, felt shocked in their hearts, moved their hearts, and changed their dreams, that is why some people are willing to endure loneliness, dare to die, and go to these oceans. The slightly mysterious animals come into close contact and dedicate their lives to the ocean.
"I have seen whales take breath many times, but every time I am shocked."
"Who said no?"
Paul handed over the chewing gum, only half a piece, Leo didn't dislike it, and put it directly into his mouth to chew. The two of them leaned on the fence and watched the calming sea gradually recovering.
Only the captain and the crew continue to work. Compared with the scientific expedition team, they seem to lack a pair of eyes to appreciate beauty. Perhaps because they have seen too many such scenery, it is no longer unusual at this moment, or they may be drifting at sea all year round. , It has polished away their appreciation and love for fish.
Not far away, the camera photographed a white man who was about fifty years old. He had long blond hair and was draped over his shoulders. He was very sturdy, but he was not bloated and tanned like a blessing. Some redness, holding the water glass with his back to the sea, looking at the camera and talking.
"Is it Professor Rons?"
The two quickly recognized the person, Giles Rons, a marine science professor at Oxford University and a big man in the industry. He has been engaged in marine work for more than 30 years and has published many papers that have caused a sensation in the industry. Leo, also took a course taught by Rons in school.
The two did not rush forward to say hello. They stood there and did not move. They quietly listened to Professor Rons' evaluation of the killer whale who had just ventilated. His voice was very clear and was not disturbed by the sound of the ship breaking the waves.
"Whale, what is it? I'm sorry I can't explain it, even if I can use English, Spanish, Latin, or even Chinese to name it, but if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you really can't Really know what kind of creature it is."
"As you have just seen, they are the treasures in the deep sea, the wonders of nature, with the largest body in the world, and a long enough life span. This is all I can explain to you. If you really feel like whales Curious, then you might as well come and see it with your own eyes."
After a few simple words were recorded, the camera stopped shooting. Professor Rons took a sip. The middle-aged man who appeared to be a member of the scientific expedition was accompanied by him, and the two walked in the direction of Leo.
Suddenly, Rons saw the two people standing by the fence, raised his left eyebrow, whispered to the ears of the scientific expedition team members, and whispered to whom they were. After getting the answer, he just walked to Leo. .
"Zhang, and Griffin, right? Welcome."
Rons first stretched out his hand. The palm was big and thick, and the palm was red, like a layer of paprika. When Leo held it, it felt like a hot iron was attached to it, and the heat was amazing.
"Hello Professor Rons, I have listened to your public class in Oxford. The knowledge you taught has had a profound impact on my career."
Not only the compliment he worked hard to make for the sake of eating, it also came from Leo’s admiration for Rons. As he said, Rons’s public class a dozen years ago really gave Leo was a great inspiration and gave Leo the courage to fight the ocean.
"Really? Then we are really fate."
He smiled heartily. The man who was nearly sixty years old but looked less than fifty, smiled and patted Palio on the shoulder, but his smile soon disappeared, his face became serious again, and he looked directly inside. Ao's eyes whispered in Leo's ear in a very small voice.
"Then I hope you can surprise me. During this time, I will bring up more professional things. I am looking forward to you arguing with me. That's it. Good luck, Zhang, and Griffin."
"I wish you a happy life, sir."
He left, no longer holding the water glass, half a glass of water was poured directly into the sea, and he did not forget to shake the water droplets still in the glass, nodded slightly to the two, and left with the subordinates of the scientific research team.
"He is giving us a chance."
"I know, but I think we'd better not show this face, let's go and see our room."
Being able to analyze the situation together with Professor Rons in the documentary is undoubtedly a matter of showing his face to a lesser-known scholar, but it is a double-edged sword. Once his own analysis fails, professionally If it is difficult to support, it will arouse criticism from countless colleagues. Such things are not uncommon. If you analyze and debate together, you must also see if you are qualified.
He put his arm around Paul's shoulder, picked up the backpack on the deck again, nodded to the sailor, followed behind the sailor, and walked into the rest area.
...
In the following ten days, they encountered many whale groups, including whales of various species, and even photographed a very rare humpback whale, but the huge blue whale never showed up.
A week later, the Field began to search the observation circle in a wide range at a speed of 15 knots per hour. On the tenth day, the observation circle was all searched, and the fish finder failed to catch a trace of the blue whale.
Thirteen days later, the scientific expedition team began to be anxious, because the Meteorological Observatory informed that at the beginning of the next month, cold air currents will enter the North Atlantic, which will cause strong thunderstorms and hurricanes of at least Category 10.
For the sake of safety, they must return at that time, otherwise hurricanes over ten degrees at sea are not a joke, and the risk factor is quite large.
What is certain at present is that the whale must have ran out of the observation circle. If you are optimistic about guessing, it may not have ran out of the course. The passing ships may still be able to find its figure. It is a bit unfortunate and ran into uninhabited seas. , Is the most terrible.
Everyone can only pray that it is a good boy and is still playing in the route. Otherwise, this expedition that cost a lot of money will basically end in failure.
Seventeen days later, the scientific expedition team was in a meeting. The photographer looked at the nautical chart and yawned boredly. Suddenly the door was knocked open. A sailor was full of ecstasy with one foot. Standing at the door, shouting at everyone present.
"Just now I received a radio from a container freighter. It was more than 670 nautical miles from our place in the southeast direction. I found it! The video was also received, with the scars on the forehead from the bite of the killer whale. !"
"Nice! Evans, look at the route!"
"The outermost route!"
"Mr. Sailor, how long will we get to the spot if we go at full speed?"
"Full speed can be increased to 37 knots per hour, which is about sixty-six nautical miles per hour. It is estimated that the target location can be reached in ten hours."
"Very good! Then act quickly!"
Ten minutes later, the Field began to advance at full speed, and the scientific expedition team also began to make a plan, based on the average speed of the blue whale and the direction of the swim, and calculated what the whale might swim to when they reached the destination. Where to go.
At the same time, Leo and the others also saw the video taken by the crew on the freighter. This video is more intuitive than the previous video, because this time it was only more than ten meters away from the ship during the air change, which is huge. His body emerged from the water, almost one-third the length of a freighter, equivalent to ten stories high. Such a shocking body shape made Leo swallow secretly.
When the ship arrived at the target place, it was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, which was nearly an hour later than the expected time. The fish finder was turned on and the sonar started high-intensity detection, but within the limit distance, it was still silent.
This is not unexpected, because this sea area has not detected a large number of krill and fish for whales, in order to fill the stomach, it will never stay here.
Then, according to the speculation of the experts of the scientific expedition team, everyone turned their eyes to the southeast. In the distance, the sky was full of stars, and the sea level in the line of sight was still dark with no light.
The sea water slapped the ship's hull, making a loud noise, and constantly irritating all the nerves on the Field, evoking the deepest fear of mankind. The deep sea ahead is an uninhabited sea.
The unknown is the source of human fear. There is no man’s sea. There will be no ships passing by, no supplies, no rescue, and walking here is equivalent to leaving the human society. Only these people on the ship can form a small society and become this sea area. In, the proof of human wisdom, and what they have to face are all kinds of unknown creatures, all kinds of inexplicable phenomena, all of which began to make Leo feel uneasy instinctively.
"Captain Glenn! Are there enough fuel and supplies?"
"The supply was completed the day before yesterday, did you forget? It is enough for us to drive to the mainland in one breath!"
"If you go forward at full speed, how long will it take to get back to land?"
"Nine days! Not even nine days!"
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go! While the storm and hurricane are still in the South Atlantic, let's get the monster back!"
This was Rons and Glenn's dialogue. The ship moved and rushed towards the darkness. No, it should be said that at this moment, they have melted into the darkness.
It's just a pity that after three days, they still didn't catch the whale. Rons started to go crazy. He regarded the blue whale as obsession, but reason was telling him, go! It's too late if you don't leave!
"Let's go home."
Rons gave the order. Although he was unwilling, this was the right choice. Everyone was relieved when he said this. They were very afraid that Rons was a lunatic. At this moment, time is not equal to money. , Which is equal to human life, and one second cannot be wasted.
But when he was driving at full speed for just two hours, Leo returned to his bedroom to rest but heard a loud bang from the bottom of the boat, followed by a violent shaking.
He was awakened, came out of the bedroom, and even forgot to put on his shoes. The same was true for Paul. In the cabin, everyone was rushing towards the cockpit. They needed to understand the situation because it was so scary.
"What happened to Captain Glenn!"
"Wait! The mechanic is investigating the situation, Smith! Smith? Please answer if you hear? Damn! Allen! Check the radio! I can't hear anything!"
"Captain! The radio has lost its signal! It is temporarily unable to contact the outside world!"
The radio operator yelled and answered, constantly adjusting the frequency of the radio, the sweat from his forehead gushing out little by little, falling on the keys, and he rubbed water marks with his trembling fingers.
"Captain, checked, the engine... has burst six cylinders."
Mechanic ran up, panting violently, his chest was constantly rising and falling, and a sentence was divided into several paragraphs to express it completely, but this news made everyone feel dim and timid. Now he is sitting directly. On the ground, some collapsed.
"Damn, didn't it mean that this generation of engines is very powerful? Why can anything horrible fall on me? Allen! What's the situation on your side?"
"I don't know, I can't even make satellite calls."
The captain was complaining and constantly swearing. He hadn't had a few engine failures in his life. As a result, six cylinders exploded directly on this bone. Such a big problem was fatal, but he soon calmed down. After coming down, he gave instructions to other people and appeased the expedition team members.
"Close those six cylinders, try to continue running the other cylinders, reduce the power a little, and adjust to a speed of five knots. Allen continues to debug the radio. We may be in a metal vein and the signal is completely obscured and burst. The tank may also be the reason. Just wait for this vein, first mate! Calculate how far we are from the route, it doesn’t matter, as long as we can get rescue within nine days, this rainstorm can only chase our Behind, watch us go ashore! We will do nothing. Don’t worry, I will send you back to your wife intact. Now you can go back to rest, the rest! Crazy boys! Looking forward to it! The long battle is here!"
Captain Glenn was roaring and soothing people's hearts. The crew's faces flushed with this roar. They got up and challenged the coming storm. At this moment, no sailor had succumbed. However, the members of the scientific expedition were not very helpful, so they could only go back to the lounge and pray that they could return home safely.
Five minutes later, the Field started again, and drove slowly towards the way home. Everyone began to cheer, even if it was less than half the speed at full speed, perhaps the unmanned sea that had traveled three days ago now needs It takes seven or eight days to return, but the speed is not important anymore. As long as the boat can still sail, everyone will have hope in their hearts.
...
Seven days later...
Leo could already see the dark cloud in the distance. In fact, it has appeared in everyone's sight since yesterday evening, and getting closer and closer, it gradually caught up to the goal.
The radio is still malfunctioning, and the tank is still stable. They are still escaping the chase of the rainstorm at an unhurried speed. At this moment, the wind and waves have become bigger, and the waves are too low, but they can occasionally slap above the red line of the hull. The parts, on the deck, always carry water stains.
A large number of seagulls flew at low altitudes on the water, occasionally staying on the fence, leaving the scattered limbs of the dead fish that had not been swallowed completely on the deck. Then, in the enviable eyes of everyone, they spread their wings and flew quickly away from the danger.
"6454-1321-54216"
He dialed the phone, even though there was no signal on the phone at all, the result was that he couldn't make the call every time. From the few days after the tank burst, he would often think of Tina's retention. He regretted it, but many Saying that he had no intention, he could only try to make a call over and over again, wondering whether his daughter would already call his father.
"Leo..."
"Ok?"
Paul walked into his bedroom and sat on the sofa opposite him with a gloomy expression. He took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it tremblingly.
"Dead."
"Who?"
"Martin, from the diving team."
"How did you die?"
"Suicide."
"how come……"
"The ghost knows that the courage to play diving is not as bold as those of us who are not in the water, come one?"
Since Tina became pregnant, he has quit smoking, but now it is fake that he is not nervous, picking up a stick in his mouth, before lighting, the ceiling lamp began to flash rapidly, changing light and dark. , Like the voltage is unstable, even like haunted.
"What's wrong, this is!"
The shaking of the ship's hull began to be violent, and it can be predicted how big the wind and waves outside are. Maybe... the waves have hit the deck. Paul scolded, but he still sat on the stool and passed the lighter to him. Oh.
The light was completely dark, the room was no longer bright, and it became pitch black. Leo lit the lighter, and the little light showed the two uneasy faces.
There was a cry of crying outside the door, maybe everyone felt that they were going to die. Although a hurricane would not necessarily sink the ship, after all, it was a small probability thing, but all the troubles of going out to sea this time were all on the chest. As a result, no one will doubt that they are about to face the sinking ship and the tragic experience of being buried in the ocean.
But then, the lights suddenly brightened, followed by cheers, and the sailors ran in the corridor, shouting: "The radio is available! We received rescue! Four hours later! There will be a ship coming! Pick us up!"
This is definitely the most exciting news in Leo's life. He got up at the same time as Paul, opened the door, looked at the sailor who was about to run towards him, and shouted excitedly.
"really!"
"Really! A freighter is coming towards us! They are coming to pick me up..."
"Boom!"
There was another loud noise. The familiar could no longer be familiar, but it was louder than the same loud noise last time. In an instant, Leo realized something terrible.
This time... the engine should have exploded.
The violent vibration directly slammed Leo to the ground. For a moment, Leo felt his eyes were a little dark and his vision began to become blurred. Paul was pressing on him, which made it hard for Leo to breathe. Small problem, but the sailor was not so lucky. The huge vibration and the beating of the huge wave made him fly up and smashed his head on the iron pipe beside Leo.
The blood burst into the faces of Leo and Paul. In the corridor, the red warning lights flashed into one piece, and the cabin was filled with heavy smoke, with the unpleasant smell of burnt tires, which was disgusting. The two of them crawled around. And screamed loudly, even the soul was scared away.
"Stop screaming! Run! It's going to catch fire!"
Someone took Leo and Paul by their collars, pulled them up, and ran toward the deck desperately, listening to the voice, like Professor Rons, but at this moment Leo and Paul had no time to confirm.
It was not until he ran to the deck that Leo was sure that it was indeed Professor Rons, but the faces of the three of them were pitch-black. If you didn't look closely, you really couldn't tell.
The waves swelled, and the hull began to shake violently. Everyone could only lie on the deck and try to find a balance so as not to be thrown into the sea.
At the same time, people kept running out of the cabin. After coughing violently, they imitated the three of Leo, lying on the deck without daring to move.
"Don't pretend to be dead on your stomach! Get the lifeboat and go to sea!"
"The next fart sea! The wave is so big! It's gone when you go down!"
"That's better than waiting on the deck to be burnt to death, or to be drowned in water! The ship leaked! Twelve tanks left! All the blown up! A big hole in the bottom of the ship was blown up! It doesn't take ten minutes The ship just sank!"
"I can't stand still! How to put it!"
"Allen! Get the fire hose! Tie it to your waist! The lifeboat is enough! Don't worry! You can run! Hurry up! Otherwise the air valve will explode in a while! Let's see together!"
Before long, the fire hose and the rope on the mast were removed. The strong diving team stepped forward to set the lifeboat, and when they sat down, they threw the rope back to the second person.
Soon, the rope was thrown in front of Leo, he picked it up, tied it around his waist, and was about to rush towards the lifeboat, but on the way, what greeted him was the biggest wave so far.
"Leo!"
He was directly hit and flew up and hit the fence. There was a sharp pain, but he could only get up with pain. Before the wave came, he successfully got into the kayak and put on his life jacket.
"You scared me to death! If something happens to you, how would you tell me to explain to Tina!"
"Don't be the thing, there are ten thousand, and still wondering how to explain it? Maybe both of us explain here this time!"
"Say something nice!"
"My wish you a happy birthday!"
A boat with six people, a total of sixteen lifeboats, was dropped on the water. As the waves gradually moved away from the Field, a drop of rain fell on his head. Leo raised his head and glanced up. At this moment, dark clouds had fallen on their heads.
Flames began to burn on board, and the raging fire exploded piece after piece of glass. The tongue of fire stuck out its head from the window and grinned at the people drifting in the wind and rain. Then, there was a violent explosion. As everyone guessed, the pressure valve It exploded, and for a moment, only buzzing remained in everyone's ears.
Tightly pulling on the handrails, and constantly taking advantage of the gaps in the waves, to splash the sea water out of the kayak, waves after waves not only make it difficult to breathe, but even get stunned.
"Be careful!"
On Leo’s kayak, one person was stunned. The kayak followed the huge waves to the sky, and then fell back to the sea. The man was flung out, Leo watched him personally. He fell into the water and was nowhere to be seen.
One person after another was buried in the sea like this, which was a great fear for all the living people. They didn't dare to look, so they could only close their eyes tightly and pretended to be deaf and dumb under the thunder and lightning.
Soon after, there were fewer than three kayaks left, but the storm was far from stopping.
"Woo..."
"what sound?"
He began to wonder, the sound was too familiar, it was like... the sound of some kind of animal, and the brain started to move quickly, and then he suddenly thought of something.
"whale!!!!"
His heart-piercing cry was covered by this crazy ocean~EbookFREE.me~ He opened his eyes and looked down at the bottom of the sea. A huge figure floated from the bottom of the sea, with a lonely scream. A wave of several meters high came out, and on his forehead, was a scar left after being bitten by other animals.
This guy is definitely more than thirty-two meters...
All the sounds disappeared...Leo's last memory was only when it jumped from the sea and blocked the moon. He was in the shadow, looking at its white belly, and then...Three kayaks were crushed by it. Under me.
