Chapter 396: The Sinking of Tianlian 2



The mutated beauty anemone belongs to the sixth level.

Very strong.

But it is still difficult to overturn such a huge cargo ship in the sea.

But the five of them worked together, using a slow corrosion method.

This is different again.

The bottom of the boat is very thick.

But it couldn't withstand the constant corrosion of the five mutated beautiful anemones.

An hour passed.

This giant sea vessel didn't feel any difference at all.

In fact, with every passing hour, the crew on the ship became more excited.

For them, once they reach port, they are free.

The rest will be taken care of by others.

When the third hour came.

The first mutated beauty sea anemone in the bottom of the ship finally corroded through the thick bottom.

Not very big.

But the hole is widening.

Moreover, dozens of tentacles of the mutated beauty sea anemone corroded together.

In the blink of an eye, water leaks appeared in dozens of places.

Under tremendous pressure, sea water rushed in.

Then it spurted out.

"Ring~"

A shrill alarm sounded.

Inside the captain's cabin.

The indicator light above was flashing wildly, emitting a frightening red color.

The crew members who were preparing to enter the port were all stunned.

They looked at the flashing red lights in a daze.

This represented a major malfunction on the vessel.

"Quick, check!"

The captain reacted immediately and he let out a roar.

He realized at the first moment that things were not simple.

Because there are too many indicator lights on.

One by one, the crew members rushed out of the captain's room and rushed to various functional rooms.

The shouts continued in the dark night.

The lights on the boat were all on.

If you look from a distance, you can see that in the darkness, a giant ship is brightly lit with crew members running quickly on it.

In the dark night, on the sea, it is so dazzling.

"Captain, there's a leak in the bottom of the boat."

Soon, through monitoring the ship, a conclusion was reached.

The captain received the message.

It feels like a dog being scared.

Leaking boat bottom?

Are you kidding?

This is a new ship that was launched just last year.

The route along the way is strictly followed as set, and there is no possibility of running aground.

He has been engaged in sailing for decades and has never seen a new ship leaking within a few years.

Generally, only old ships will occasionally experience water seepage.

But can water seepage be compared with water leakage?

"Go check it out quickly."

Knowing there is a water leak, the next step is to investigate and then carry out rescue operations.

Following the captain's anxious shouting.

The crew took quick action again.

From the deck to the bottom of the ship, it is almost more than ten stories high. After they went down to check.

The captain organized people to prepare for rescue.

But just a few minutes later, a crew member's heart-wrenching roar rang out.

"It's over. It's all over."

"Captain, there are as many as one hundred and twenty-seven leaks."

"The sealed cabin must be closed!"

In fact, at this time, one could already feel that the speed of the freighter was getting slower and slower.

The large amount of water that entered caused the freighter to become increasingly heavier.

The captain was also dumbfounded when he heard this information.

At this time, the surveillance was finally turned on.

Through each camera, you can see the sea water gushing out from below, very fast and large.

In just a moment, the bottom of the boat was filled with sea water.

This situation cannot be prevented by closing the sealed cabin.

In particular, it is distributed throughout the bottom of the ship when water is coming in.

This is the most terrifying thing.

If there are only a few spots, they can be repaired.

But now it involves the entire ship, the entire bottom of the ship.

Just thinking about it makes me feel cold.

The surging sea water is still expanding, and it seems that the crack is getting bigger and bigger?

"Oh shit!"

The captain is going crazy.

He has never encountered such a situation before.

It was as if the entire ship had been stabbed from the bottom into a sieve.

Soon, another crew member reported.

The number of leaks has increased to more than 200, and the number and gaps are still increasing.

The captain's face turned dark and he almost fainted.

But he quickly took action.

The first is to report to the company.

The second is to begin mobilizing the crew to abandon ship and escape.

Judging from the current situation, there is a possibility that this freighter will sink.

Once they are late.

With the tonnage of this cargo ship, the whirlpool it creates is enough to suck everyone to the bottom of the sea, leaving no possibility of survival.

"Quick, abandon ship."

the captain roared.

My voice is hoarse.

He now only wants to be responsible for the dozens of people on board.

The crew members, with crazy looks on their faces, put on red survival jackets.

Then, according to the order of the drill, they rushed to the lifeboat.

Fortunately, there were only a few dozen of them.

In addition, it is impossible for such a large cargo ship to sink directly, it will take a process.

This gives them plenty of time.

So, they followed certain escape experience.

Bring some fresh water and food.

"Don't worry, the freighter will take at least an hour to sink."

“Plenty of time.”

“Don’t push.”

"Bring food and drink."

If there is no food or water, who knows how many days it will take to be rescued at sea?

The only good news is that it is less than four hours away from the coast.

Lifeboats were lowered one after another and crew members boarded them.

As the motor sounded.

They quickly fled the freighter.

Six lifeboats left one after another.

The crew members sat on the lifeboat, looking at the giant ship still on the sea with complicated expressions.

But the crew members who were familiar with this giant ship could already see that its waterline had long exceeded the warning line.

This means it is sinking.

Several crew members held up their cell phones and filmed it all.

Tianlian Shipping Group.

When receiving this information, the Ministry of Emergency Management responded immediately.

"How is that possible?"

The minister, who was somewhat overweight and had a half-bald head, looked at the information in front of him in disbelief.

Through the video, you can see seawater gushing out of the cargo ship.

In particular, the location of the leak involved the entire bottom of the ship.

It is holistic.

It was as if someone had frantically punched holes in the bottom of the boat.

He stared in amazement at a scene that was absolutely impossible to happen.

After checking the route of Tianlian 2, it can be confirmed that Tianlian 2 has not deviated at all.

The operation is close to perfection.

So the question is, why did this freighter encounter such devastating problems?

"Quick, contact the shipyard."

But it is obvious that distant water cannot put out a nearby fire.

It is not difficult to see from the data that with such amount of water inflow, the freighter will sink in two hours at most.

This is the "Tianlian-2" worth 1.5 billion.

And it is currently transporting $30 billion worth of goods.

This is a serious matter.

Obviously, this is not something he can be responsible for.

Reporting is required.

But at this point in time...

It was only about three in the morning.

This is also fatal.

The bottom of the giant ship "Tianlian 2".

The five mutated beauty sea anemones were still lying there, constantly corroding the boat, almost trapping it under the bottom of the boat.

They didn't just eat through the bottom of the boat.

After expanding enough for them to fit in, they went straight into the cabin.

Tentacles rolled out.

Their terrifying power allows them to easily tear apart the steel parts here.

After wreaking havoc, five mutated beautiful sea anemones left the freighter.

After leaving the freighter, they transformed into mermaids again.

Then dive down.

At a depth of two hundred meters under the sea, return to Haidong City.

Since they have human forms, Zhou Qiang's plan is to let them live in the beach villa.

Anyway, it is a seaside villa, only a long beach away from the sea.

When necessary, they can quickly enter the sea.

There is a huge swimming pool in the villa, so there is no need to worry about the negative effects of being away from the ocean for a long time.

Purchasing such a villa is no pressure for Zhou Qiang.

Of course, I can’t live with you.

Let’s not talk about what Zhou Qiang’s parents think, let’s just say that what if Zhou Qiang can’t resist the heavy taste.

How to deal with this matter?

…………

The matter of "Tianlian 2" cannot be concealed at all.

Not to mention the videos posted by the crew.

For example, Tianlian Shipping Group has a large number of employees, and it is impossible for everyone to keep this information.

After all, it involves hundreds of billions of dollars, various types of rescue operations, etc., and it cannot be concealed.

It's easy for the media to capture this news.

A lot of news about "Tianlian-2" has appeared on short videos.

"Fuck, this is a big deal."

"I just watched a video. How can a cargo ship take on water like this?"

“Another hot search event.”

"It looks like it's going to sink. These 24,000 containers are going to be ruined."

"I hope the crew is okay."

"Call the Maritime Administration."

"Tomorrow Tianlian Shipping's stock will plummet again."

"Barbie Q is here, I have a full position in Tianlian Shipping."

Compared to the Internet.

Relevant units in Haidong City mobilized at the first opportunity.

The first thing to do was to send a helicopter to the scene of the accident.

The second is the rescue ship.

Send out an operation ship to see if Tianlian 2 can be saved.

Although everyone saw the amount of water taking in, they knew that Tianlian 2 was in danger.

But the work that should be done still needs to be done.

By the time all units were mobilized, an hour had passed.

The dock became bustling.

Rescue crews left the port one after another.

Both the city and higher authorities are paying close attention to this matter.

The entire Tianlian Shipping Group also held a rescue meeting as soon as possible.

The rescue helicopter that went ahead was rapidly approaching the location of "Tianlian 2".

About half an hour later, the rescue helicopter finally arrived at the accident site.

But what they saw was only a small half of "Tianlian 2" left.

Only a small part of the huge ship was exposed above the sea.

The sinking continues.

When you see this, you know that this ship is finished.

Through filming, this picture was also transmitted back to the meeting room of Tianlian Shipping Group.

A group of senior executives were all staring in amazement at the "Tianlian 2", which was only slightly exposed. Even if they were laymen, they knew that its sinking was a foregone conclusion.

"Find me the reason."

A vice president of Tianlian Shipping Group was in charge of the meeting. He slammed the table and stared at the sinking scene.

Everyone in the conference room was silent.

His face looked serious.

This matter is not so easy to handle.

Should sunken ships be salvaged? What should be done with them after salvaging?

Then there is the trouble of cargo.

Thinking of all these things made their scalps tingle.

In fact, they have dealt with such things more than once together.

But what happened this time to a cargo ship as large as the Tianlian 2 has never happened before.

The sea area where the accident occurred.

The helicopter began searching for the lifeboat, they needed to confirm the safety of the people.

After counting, all crew members were present.

The personnel were merely frightened, but no one died.

This can only be said to be a blessing in disguise.

The rescued crew members watched the final sinking of "Tianlian 2" with complicated eyes on the helicopter, and then a huge whirlpool formed and disappeared on the sea.

The containers were fixed very firmly, so no containers came apart.

All were taken into the icy sea by the cargo ship.

It was not until dawn that the rescue ship arrived.

But there was nothing else except the sea full of daily necessities for the crew.

The water here is more than three thousand meters deep, which brings a lot of trouble to salvage.

The rescue ship simply turned around a few times and then returned.

Because this giant ship has sunk to the bottom of the sea and is lying quietly on the sand.

Of course, the story doesn't end here.

On that day, Tianlian Shipping's stock price was hit the limit down. Although the order was not closed, for Tianlian Shipping, which has a market value of 300 billion yuan, the market value evaporated by one tenth, more than 30 billion yuan.

There was a lot of cursing in the stock bar.

All short video platforms are really going crazy now.

Continuous recommendations have made this matter known to everyone.

One video, one shot.

Everyone can see how this sinking behemoth went from normal to sinking.

"Based on my many years of sailing experience, there must be a serious problem with the bottom of the ship. For example, the splicing and welding joints were torn, which caused problems with the keel of the entire ship and caused the entire ship to take on water."

"That makes sense, but I've never heard of this phenomenon on a ship of this type."

"Do you think there might be some monster on the seafloor that tore the bottom of the ship apart?"

"The above person has a good idea, but it's all bullshit. I'm afraid you don't know how thick the bottom of the ship is. It's impossible for a creature to tear the bottom of the ship apart."

"Wait for the announcement."

"Wait for an announcement? Impossible. A certain plane crashed, and there was no announcement for several months. Do you think this case involves more problems and there will be an announcement?"

"Fuck, I bought Tianlian Shipping and lost a lot of money."

Through the images taken by the crew members sitting on the lifeboat, we can see the final sinking scene of this huge ship.

A huge vortex.

Swallowed up all the scattered items on the ship.

The five mutated beautiful sea anemones, the culprits, had already transformed into human form, left the sea and walked onto the beach.

Nalan Ning was already waiting on the beach.

When they transformed, the bras Zhou Qiang had prepared for them had already been torn to pieces.

Now they are naked.

He dressed them and took them back to the villa.

As for the outside world, Nalan Ning didn't care at all.
