summer market

Everyone on the deck panicked.

There have been slight changes in the surrounding waters before, and the sea water slowly flows in a direction, but only ships with relatively small tonnage can sense this change and be affected by the force of the water flow. For destroyers, this change But it is completely negligible.By the time someone on the deck discovered the large vortex, it was already close to the edge of the vortex.The people in the control room have also discovered this, and immediately turned the steering wheel, looking for a safe area to avoid this maelstrom.

"What a big vortex!" Nelson looked at the survey data reported on the screen, his face turned green.

The data shows that the sudden vortex has a radius of more than one kilometer, is bottomless, and has a tendency to continue to expand.

"Chen, are we looking for this vortex?" Nelson asked with a breath.He directly understood Guixu as a maelstrom.That's good too, so that Chen Si doesn't have to waste his time explaining some words to him that he doesn't understand at all.

"No." Chen Si looked solemn.Then he said, "I'll go out of the deck to have a look."

Nelson quickly grabbed him, and said anxiously: "Chen, are you crazy? There is a big whirlpool outside. The waves around here must be extremely high. The cabin must be locked tightly. The people outside have already withdrawn inside." , you will be swept away by a giant wolf anytime on the deck!"

Chen Si smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of my own safety. If there is any specific situation, I will contact you through the communicator." Chen Si wanted to judge the climate change outside, and the data in the monitor Although it is very accurate, Chen Si can't feel the reality. He has to see the changes in the surrounding sea and sky before he can make a final decision: "To avoid this vortex, we still have to move towards a fixed coordinate. Sailing." Chen Si turned around and threw a firm sentence.

The corner of Nelson's mouth twitched, but he held back his words.He glanced at the crew members who were operating the warship, and said angrily: "What are you looking at, you haven't done your duty well, aren't you afraid to drive the warship into the vortex?"

"Report, another vortex was found!" The voice of a technician in charge of monitoring the hydrological system trembled.

This vortex formed very abruptly.It suddenly appeared less than half a nautical mile from the warship. At such a distance, if the maneuverability of the warship is not strong enough, it is impossible to avoid it at such a high speed, and it directly drove into the vortex.

"Son of a son of a bitch!" Nelson stared at the virtual vortex position on the screen, and cursed fiercely in English. The technicians on the ship did their best to save themselves without waiting for him to speak.The warship changed its direction less than a minute ago, and now it has to change its direction urgently. For them, they are already familiar with the road and their reaction speed is extremely fast.

"Wow..." The warship moved abruptly to the left by about twenty degrees, setting off a huge wave and falling on the deck.Fortunately, the people on the deck had completely retreated into the warship, otherwise someone would have been washed into the water by the huge wave.

Before Chen Si opened the cabin door, he heard the dull sound of being hit by scorpions outside the cabin door. Hearing this sound, he didn't dare to be reckless, and retreated again.It is known from the communicator that the vortex in this sea area is increasing, and the increasing speed is getting faster and faster.

"What's going on! Chen, explain to me!" Seeing Chen Si step back to the command room, Nelson said to Chen Si angrily with a pale face.

Just after Chen Si left, no less than twenty vortexes of various sizes had appeared around the warship. But it is a foregone conclusion.Compared with other ships, this destroyer can be regarded as a giant ship, but in front of the whirlpool, it is no different from an ordinary small sampan. Once it is entangled by the whirlpool, then It will be attracted and torn to pieces.

Chen Si raised his head and looked at the virtual map drawn by the data on the display screen. Seeing so many vortices appearing here, he understood what was going on.

"Return to the Ruins is about to appear. These vortexes will eventually converge to form a giant vortex. The place where this giant vortex appears is the real Return to the Ruins! It is the place we are looking for!" Chen Si took a deep breath. in one breath.

"But we can't escape from these whirlpools now. What are we talking about about finding Guixu? Let's find a way to save our lives first, sir!" Nelson's neck turned red.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of with a small vortex!" Chen Si looked at Nelson contemptuously, and said to Nelson, "Only a very small amount of the vortex that appears here is harmful to the warship we are on. Small whirlpools, there is no need to dodge at all, it doesn’t matter if you drive directly over them, their pulling force is not a big problem for the powerful power of the destroyer! Even if something big happens, Mr. Nelson, I can guarantee that this ship will Even if it sinks, I can guarantee that you are still alive!" Chen Si patted his chest and said.This is not Chen Si's nonsense, this confidence is entirely based on Chen Si's understanding of the advanced equipment on this warship.

Both the diving bell and the Apache helicopter are the best means of escape. No matter how bad it is, there are also anti-pressure suits and small submarines developed by the Americans. It is naturally impossible to save the entire crew, but it is necessary to let everyone Ten people retreated safely, which was more than enough.

Nelson rolled his eyes at Chen Si and said, "It's better that what you said is true!"

Chen Si no longer paid attention to Nelson, but paid attention to the direction of water flow on the virtual map.After watching for a while, a smile appeared on his solemn face, and he said, "These vortexes have begun to gather. Pay attention, this is the last madness before the danger ends. We will be safe if we survive."

Many people have also discovered that the water flow around the warship is flowing in one direction, and the speed of the whirlpool around it is gradually accelerating, but the direction is the same as all water flows, approaching a fixed direction, different After the vortices approached, not only did they not cancel out, but they quickly gathered together to slowly form a larger vortex, moving at the same speed and direction.

Warships are interspersed between these vortexes, and the danger is self-evident.The warship was pulled in almost a few times, and all the backup power installed on the warship were temporarily activated, and they fled desperately to the outside, only to escape the catastrophe.However, the soldiers who drove the ship knew very well that after the ship returned to Hong Kong, at least a year and a half had not been overhauled, and it could not be restored to its best condition, and the service time was greatly reduced.
