Chapter 2456 Never Give Up Hope

During the rapid descent, both the man and the boat were caught by the waves, as if they were swallowed by an ancient giant beast!

And in the huge waves, a sword flashed with a cold light, and with a puff, it pierced into the hard steel hull.

Chen Xinan grabbed the sword with both hands to stabilize his body, then jumped up, using his body to grab the railing of the ship.

The next second, he flipped over the railing and stood on the deck again!

Before he could catch his breath, the huge waves raised by the cargo ship after falling into the water hit him head on!

Chen Xinan grabbed the railing with both hands and let his body resist the impact of the waves!

The powerful force almost washed him up, and even the railing was bent by him!

But fortunately, he survived!

After the big wave, Chen Xinan rushed forward again, and before the next big wave was about to lift the cargo ship, he kicked open the door of the main control room in the bridge tower!

It was quiet inside, as if there was no one!

How is this possible?

In such an environment, there was no one in the main control room, just like a car running on the road, there was no driver at all!

Just when Chen Xinan wanted to leave, he heard a faint cry in the corner next to him. He turned his head and shouted: "Who is there?"

After a while, a dark shadow came out, turned on the flashlight to shine on Chen Xinan, and asked in the awkward Eagle Flag language: "Who are you?"

Chen Xinan was now soaked and looked different from usual, so this guy didn't recognize him.

But since he knew Eagle Flag language, it would be easy to communicate.

Chen Xinan asked him, "Why are you hiding here? Where did the captain and the others go?"

The man said in a trembling voice, "The main control room was destroyed by the storm, and now all the equipment has stopped working.

We are done! This storm is too big, and we can't survive it at all!

We will all die here soon!"

Chen Xinan stepped forward and slapped him in the face, scolding him, "Don't say these useless nonsense here! Tell me, where is the captain!"

The man seemed to be a little clearer after being slapped. He looked at Chen Xinan with some fear, pointed down and said, "In the manual control room!"

Chen Xinan grabbed his collar, lifted him up, and scolded him, "Go, take me there!"

The manual control room is just below the main control room, which is to change the automated driving of the cargo ship to the old-fashioned manual operation.

When Chen Xinan arrived here, he was also a little frightened by the tragic scene in the control room.

All the glass here was broken, and a lot of seawater poured down from above and around.

Fortunately, the drainage system was still functioning normally, and the water underfoot was not deep.

But everything around seemed to have been smashed, and it was a mess.

There were also several people lying on the ground, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.

A huge wheel in the middle was spinning rapidly like a windmill.

Sometimes clockwise, sometimes counterclockwise, without any regularity.

Hodgson sat on a chair, holding a bottle of wine in his hand, drinking from time to time, and then sitting still.

The remaining six or seven people all huddled together, crying and trembling.

Chen Xinan shouted to everyone: "What are you doing? Why don't you drive the boat?"

In the storm, it is difficult for human voices to fight against the roar of nature. Even if you talk face to face, you may not be able to hear clearly.

No one paid attention to Chen Xinan, and everyone's face was full of despair.

They have never encountered such a storm in their lives!

It was so destructive that it directly destroyed the main control system, which basically cut off everyone's way out.

Chen Xinan walked over and kicked Hodgson.

The drunk Hodgson raised his head and glanced at Chen Xinan.

Even though he recognized this man, his eyes no longer had the usual hatred.

Anyway, he was about to die, so he could let go of any hatred.

He picked up the bottle, gulped it down, and then handed it to Chen Xinan.

Chen Xinan didn't take it, but just pointed at the wheel and shouted: "Why don't you steer the ship and drive the boat?"

Hodgson took back the bottle and didn't say anything.

He didn't understand, couldn't speak, and was too lazy to speak.

A man next to him said to Chen Xinan: "It's useless! The ship has lost control and now we have lost contact. We can only wait for death!"

Chen Xinan frowned and shouted: "What do you mean? Who are you?"

The other person was a bearded man in his forties. He looked at Chen Xinan, leaned close to his ear, and said loudly:

"My name is Jonard, and I am the chief engineer of this ship.

The main control room has been destroyed and can only be controlled manually.

But with the existing manpower, it is impossible to operate all the equipment!

And the equipment here is seriously damaged, and some of them can no longer be used!"

Chen Xinan pointed to the direction of the cabin and asked him: "Aren't there still many people in the cabin?"

Jonard shook his head and said: "I can't contact you, there is no signal.

And even if they are contacted, do you think they can come to help? "

Chen Xinan stopped talking.

He had just come from the deck, so he was familiar with the situation there.

It can be said that in such an environment, the only outcome for the crew to cross the deck was to be wiped out!

Jonald pointed to the rudder that was spinning wildly, and said to Chen Xinan: "You have to hold the rudder to stabilize the ship.

But the storm is too big, and the twisting force is not something that people can control!

Did you see those people on the ground?

They were all thrown away by the rudder!

Even if all the people rushed up now, they couldn't control the rudder!

What's more, it was originally a two-person rudder, and at most only two people could stand.

Even if so many people wanted to go up, there was no place to stand!

If you can't even hold the rudder, everything you do is in vain!

It seems that this time, we will be buried in this storm! "

Joanard's face showed a look of despair.

A large amount of seawater poured down from above his head, and he did not dodge, letting the seawater pour down from his head, and then he cried out like crying and laughing.

Chen Xinan grabbed his shoulder and asked: "In other words, as long as we can stabilize the rudder, we can be saved, right?"

"Not sure!" Jonard shook his head and sighed: "There are too few people, the storm is too big, and our hope of survival is very slim!

And you can't stabilize the rudder, do you see those corpses?

Human power cannot defeat nature!

If you are brave, your end will be the same as theirs!"

Chen Xinan curled his lips and shouted at him: "No matter what the result is, you have to go up and try, it must be better than waiting to die here!"

Joanard sighed and said: "It's useless to struggle in vain.

Those of us who often go to the sea have long been prepared to die in the sea.

Now it's just the most comfortable posture to welcome death! "

Chen Xinan squinted at him, pointed outside, and said to him: "The most comfortable way is to walk out of here and then jump into the sea!

Anyone who stays here is someone who has not given up hope!

I will not sit and wait for death, so I will fight!

If you choose to lie down, then find a place to hide yourself!"

He turned around, slapped Hodgson on the shoulder, then pointed at the wheel, and then pointed at himself.

Then pointed at Hodgson's heart, and then pointed at the surroundings.

Hodgson looked at him as if he was looking at a fool.

A mocking smile also appeared on his face, pointing to the corpse on the ground, giving Chen Xinan a thumbs up, and then rotating his wrist so that the thumb was facing down!

Go to hell!

Chen Xinan ignored him, turned around and walked towards the wheel that was constantly turning because of the waves!
