With a seemingly regretful mutter, Weizard returned his attention to the crisis he was facing.

At this time, there were too many passengers who came to the deck and gathered around the life raft. The scene was also extremely chaotic, and the little order that had been maintained has disappeared.

"The angle of the hull is getting bigger and bigger!"

Weizard thought quickly in his mind: "The life raft on the left side of the passenger ship can't be put down at all... From the current situation, even if you barely board the life raft, you may not be able to go safely!"

"What's more, the purpose of Nightmare Paradise's trial missions is not for us participants to enjoy the excitement of the'game'!"

"It looks like we have to prepare for diving and escape..."

At this moment, the retired military doctor Thor and Father Joan, who had already put on their life jackets, also squeezed to the side of the ship where Weizard was.

"Here! Put on a life jacket."

Sol, with a layer of sweat on his forehead, said, "There is the life raft, shall we try it?"

"thanks!"

Weizard, who took over the life jacket, shook his head: "Everyone is going to dive and escape..."

After a pause, Weizard explained his decision: "... I thought of the main task too simple before! Judging from Norton's end, riding a life raft is not advisable, and there are too many uncertain factors. ."

"Could it be an accident?"

The retired medic Thor pointed to a life raft that was far away from the passenger ship and asked: "Lina is there! She seems to be safe..."

"not necessarily!"

Wearing a life jacket, Weizard put the red wine in his arms and said flatly: "From the difficulty of the mission that has been raised to E++ level, she will definitely encounter a life and death crisis! Although I can't think of the crisis. What will it be… "

After listening to Weizard's explanation, Saul nodded in agreement, while the priest Joan remained silent.

"It's 2:15 in the morning, and there are forty-five minutes before the main task is completed."

Sol looked at his pocket watch, his face showed a dignified look: "Judging from the current temperature, it is difficult for us to last in the sea for such a long time! Wizade, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Have you noticed? The mist on the sea is dissipating."

Weizard did not directly answer the question, but talked about a seemingly irrelevant thing: "What a coincidence! The appearance of the thick fog is like a special preparation for this shipwreck..."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

The retired military doctor Saul couldn't keep up with Weizard's jumping thinking, "Does this fog have anything to do with the question I asked?"

"Of course it matters!"

Weizard replied lazily: "Without the fog... the visibility will be improved and people's vision will be better. We in the water will be easier to find the life raft, and it will be easier to be found by search and rescue ships and personnel!"

"... So far, four or five life rafts have been put down safely, and the freighter that caused the accident, it does not seem to have suffered much damage, and it is close enough to us!"

Just as the three of Weizard were communicating, Princess Largoni shook violently again, and the side of the passenger ship's right side was less than five meters above the sea.

"Can't wait any longer! Once the hull overturns, we won't even have a chance to dive..."

The laziness in Weizard's body was swept away.

"remember!"

Weizard urged: "Before diving, take a deep breath. After you see where you fall, don't look down and jump in the wind..."

"When you jump, keep your feet close together and straight, arms folded on your chest, press the lifejacket... Cover your mouth and nose with your hands to avoid choking..."

When Weizard finished speaking, the three gestured to each other and were ready to dive.

At this moment, there was a sudden violent explosion at the location of Princess Largney’s boiler, and countless fragments were thrown into the air... When a huge iron plate fell, it happened to hit a ship carrying 50 escaped people. And the ballerina Lena is on this life raft.

Due to the explosion of the boiler, Princess Largoni could no longer support it, just like a human being struggling to die for the last time before dying. The huge ship shook violently for a few times before sinking into the sea.

The life-and-death crisis encountered by Lena, Weizard and others, of course did not know. The three of them were thrown into the cold sea water by the blast caused by the violent explosion of the boiler.

With the buoyancy of the life jacket, Weizard surfaced in a few seconds. He wiped the sea water off his face and looked around.

"Joan... Wizade... can you hear me?"

Just as Weizard looked around for the trail of Sol and Joan, a shout came from his left rear.

"It should be Sol... I am here!"

Weizard replied loudly, and swam in the direction of Saul's voice.

Soon, the two people gathered together.

"Wizard, have you seen Joan?"

"No! But I don't think he will be too far away from us..."

"Hurry up and look for it, I hope his luck is also good!"

After a brief exchange, Weizard and Saul started searching in a counterclockwise direction.

On the icy sea, the survivors shouted in pain everywhere.

In the process of searching, Weizard and Thor saw two or three life rafts that had overturned. After looking at them from a distance, the two deliberately avoided them.

At this time, those few life rafts that have overturned are "islands" in the sea. Only when they climb up will there be hope of life... In order to survive, many survivors fight for a place on the life raft. Human nature is ugly. Be infinitely magnified at this moment!

Five minutes later, Weizard and Saul, who had been swimming and looking for the priest Joan, began to tremble. This is because the heat in their bodies has been taken away by the cold water due to exercise.

"Look for another two minutes..."

Sol, a retired military doctor with blue lips, said: "If we still can't find Joan, we can only give up!"

Weizard nodded in agreement.

"what!!!"

At this moment, a scream of people before their death sounded from the right front of the two of them, and immediately afterwards, the sound of cursing and fighting came over.

"Huh? It seems... It seems to be Joan!"

Through the almost dissipated mist, Weizard saw a life raft carrying survivors, and the figure of Father Joan seemed to be on it.

"Go! Let's go and see!"

Saul, the retired medic, whispered as he picked up a broken wooden stick from the sea.
