The roaring sound of water came from the maintenance hatch passage. Tom walked over and saw only a cable that had collapsed tightly.
The passage for this maintenance hatch was originally nearly ten meters long, but after cutting out three sealed cabins, it is now only four or five meters long.
As water continues to enter the sealed compartment of the hull, the waterline will continue to drop. By then, let alone this sealed compartment, even the maintenance channel will sink below the waterline!
"Too cruel..."
Looking at the extremely turbulent sea water inside, he felt that the soles of his feet were weak even if he took a look at it, let alone jumping in to save people.
He raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist, staring at the second hand, fearing that he would miss the time.
"Time is up!"
As the second hand jumped, he quickly operated the winch and pulled up the cable.
Buzzing…
The windlass hummed and pulled the cable up.
The cable tied a person's feet, it was Wu Chao. His feet were exposed from the water first, then his body, and then his head.
Tom's heart tightened, but when he saw a smile on Wu Chao's face, his heart became happy for no reason.
Wu Chao's arm was still in the water, stretched tightly. Under the pull of the winch, he slowly pulled a person out of the water, it was Nie Cai!
Wu Chao grabbed Nie Cai's hand tightly, then used his waist to throw Nie Cai out of the maintenance hatch. Then he used his hands and feet to climb up from the maintenance tunnel with two or three jumps.
"Colonel Wu, can't you be gentle and throw me out?"
On the floor, Nie Cai was lying on the ground, all wet, his voice a little helpless.
Next to him was Tom, whose head was swollen. When Wu Chao threw Nie Cai out just now, it hit him.
"I'm sorry, Tom, I wanted to hide from you just now, but I didn't..."
Nie Cai was a little embarrassed, tilted his head and said to Tom on the ground.
With his usual skills, even if he was thrown out from below, such a thing would definitely not happen, but now his body was extremely weak and there was no way he could get out of the way of Tom.
Tom was knocked to the ground and his head was smashed, but there was an expression of excitement on his face.
"Is it Mr. Nie? Thank God, I thought you were dead just now!"
He quickly climbed up, helped Nie Cai up, and said excitedly.
Just now, the bulkhead was suddenly crushed by the water pressure, and the huge water flow rushed in crazily, causing the hull of the cruise ship to shake, which clearly shows the power of the water flow.
He thought that Nie Cai was swept down and would definitely die in this situation, but he didn't expect to see Nie Cai again!
"It would be nice to be able to rescue you. Don't dislike it so much."
Wu Chao jumped out of the maintenance hatch, wiped the seawater from his face, and hummed: "You think you are invincible, don't you? How dare you use explosives in this kind of space... Fortunately, you still know how to use a flying knife to fire explosives." Signal for help, otherwise you would have been drowned by now."
"Thank you."
Nie Cai said sincerely.
When he threw the flying knife just now, he actually didn't expect anyone to save him, but was planning to use the method of dimensional travel.
If the flying knife could be thrown, Nie Cai was going to throw his cell phone next as a coordinate point for dimensional travel.
However, after all, the dimensional shuttle channel cannot be used at close range. The error of the dimensional shuttle channel is really a bit large. Nie Cai is not sure that it can be accurately transmitted under this situation.
If the transmission is deflected by tens of meters and reaches the bottom of the ship or the sea next to the cruise ship, the consequences will probably not be much better. Therefore, Nie Cai will not use the dimensional shuttle channel component until the critical moment.
"Remember that I have repaid you with my life."
Wu Chao's expression softened slightly and he said.
"The hull seems to be less tilted?"
At this time, Nie Cai suddenly noticed a problem and said in surprise.
Yes, compared with just now, the hull of the ship seems to be straighter, and it is not as scary as it was upside down.
Although the crazy influx of seawater in the sealed cabin just now almost killed Nie Cai, from another aspect it was a good thing.
After filling three sealed compartments in a short time, the waterline of the ship finally began to balance. In addition, Robert had been using a high-power water pump to pump out the water in the sealed compartment of the forward cabin. At this time, the ship was about to sink. The cruise ship was saved.
"The military helicopter will arrive in three hours, and the nearest rescue ship will arrive in eight hours. Will you come with us?" Wu Chao asked.
Nie Cai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
"I'm a reporter, you know."
As the military helicopter left, although it was possible to quickly escape the danger, it was equivalent to giving up the subsequent news report.
While reporters from other media were not here, he was the only reporter on the entire ship reporting this major news.
After finally being able to "occupy" such a world-shaking news on his own, how could Nie Cai give up the next report because he was greedy for life and afraid of death
"Okay, I can guess your answer is this."
Wu Chao shook his head. He was in a good mood now and talked more. He looked at Nie Cai and said with a frown, "I really don't understand you. The last job you should have is to be an ordinary reporter."
With such top-notch skills, he actually still wants to be an ordinary journalist
What an overkill!
"Mr. Nie, you are actually a reporter? Like Superman Clark, you tear off your shirt whenever there is danger?"
Tom's expression changed and he exclaimed.
The Royal Neutron cruise ship visited China once, and he also learned some Chinese. Although he couldn't speak it, he could at least understand what it meant.
After seeing Nie Cai's skills, he originally thought that Nie Cai should be a member of some special forces, or at the worst, some kind of martial arts master.
But he never thought that Nie Cai was just a news reporter!
Superman Clark is usually a reporter. Only when he is in danger will he tear off his shirt and transform into Superman wearing underwear.
Isn't it? What Nie Cai did just now can only be done by a "superman". It would be impossible for anyone else to do it!
It seems that journalists are really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger...
"You have reminded me that my current skills are so good, I can develop in other places..."
Nie Cai pondered for a moment and said, "How about becoming a war correspondent? I think this is the profession that best utilizes my skills."
"Are you entertaining me? With Yang Zhirong's relationship and Kong Lao's support, where do you want to go?"
Wu Chao snorted and waved his hand.
After saying that, he took off his shirt, squeezed out a handful of water, put the shirt on his shoulders, and left without looking back.
Now that the cruise ship is temporarily safe, he has to do other things. The suite where the Red Skull is located must be searched. What if he can find any other clues
For him, there are still many things to be busy with, and he has no time to chat with Nie Cai here!
