Chapter 684: Storm at Sea
…
Because it was his first time driving a boat, Liu Dong didn't drive very fast, but he left the IJsselmeer before dark...
After passing the 32-kilometer-long sea-blocking dam built by the Dutch "Züdersee Project", Liu Dong also had to admire the Dutch's determination to seek land from the sea. After a century of persistence, the original Zuiderzee
It became the current IJsselmeer. Perhaps in a hundred years, the IJsselmeer will become the Dutch IJsselmeer region! By then, the Dutch land will have expanded by 3,440 square kilometers!
According to the current population density of the Netherlands, this is the living space for more than two million people.
Shaking his head to get rid of these messy thoughts, Liu Dong drove the yacht straight into the sea. However, he did not cross the West Frisian Islands and enter the North Sea, but entered the Wadden Sea along the coastline.
Liu Dong knew very well that compared to looking for a needle in a haystack in the North Sea, the chance of finding a sunken ship along the coastline was undoubtedly much greater. After all, the offshore area was the area where ship activity was intensive!
And Liu Dong also believes that in the age of sailing, many ship owners would choose to sail in coastal areas with less wind and waves to avoid the wind and waves of the North Sea and unscrupulous pirates.
Although his guess was indeed correct, after actually reaching the sea, Liu Dong discovered that the search range of the relic Yuanguang he thought was enough was so narrow. The 500-meter radius was too limited compared to the vast ocean.
.
When Liu Dong spent a day walking to Cuxhaven in northern Germany, he only found two sunken ships with a total value of about 50 million US dollars. A Clark ship and a Caravel, also known as the Spanish galleon.
.
In the past day, little was gained, and Liu Dong's original enthusiasm for salvaging the sunken ship was now not much left.
Therefore, his original plan to continue north along the coastline, take the Skagerrak Strait, and enter the Baltic Sea was changed to crossing the 96-kilometer Kiel Canal, crossing the Jutland Peninsula and entering the Baltic Sea. In this way, Liu Dong would have to travel less
It covered nearly 700 kilometers and saved at least three days.
But Liu Dong himself could not have imagined that he had just left the Kiel Canal for a day, and had just bypassed the island of Bornholm and officially entered the Baltic Sea, when he ran into a big storm at night.
Although he had long known that storms at sea were many times stronger than those on land, Liu Dong still underestimated the extent of the anger in the Baltic Sea. Strong winds of at least level 8 rolled up waves of more than 6 meters, causing Liu Dong's feet to fall more than 40 meters high.
The yacht has completely become a toy in the hands of Poseidon.
Although the doors and windows all around were closed, Liu Dong still felt the strong wind and rain coming in through unknown gaps.
The heavy raindrops hit the glass on the window, and it felt like beating a drum.
"not good!"
Through the relic Yuanguang, Liu Dong 'witnessed' a huge wave of nearly 8 meters approaching his yacht from behind, like a mountain and river capsizing.
Suddenly, Liu Dong's heart lifted.
Although after nearly a week of driving, Liu Dong's boating skills have become quite proficient. However, he is still far from being able to fight against wind and waves on the ocean.
And Liu Dong is also self-aware. He knows that if he doesn't think of a solution quickly, he may not be able to survive for long, and he, Mei Xue, and this luxury cruise ship will be photographed under the sea.
Of course, with Liu Dong's current ability, the Baltic Sea, with an average depth of no more than 500 meters, will not threaten his life, but Mei Xue is different!
Thinking of this, Liu Dong glanced at the pale and frightened beauty holding the steel handrail next to her. Seasickness and fear had almost exhausted her energy.
"Xue'er, hurry up!" Liu Dong shouted and held the steering wheel firmly.
After his reminder, Mei Xue nodded desperately to him, and then her arms tightly hugged the iron frame fixed to the hull next to her.
"boom!"
Along with the loud noise, Liu Dong felt as if someone had hit the yacht from behind with a super sledgehammer weighing hundreds of tons.
"ah……!"
Hearing Mei Xue's scream, Liu Dong suddenly felt as if his yacht was swatted into the bottom of the sea like a fly. Fortunately, although the wind and waves were strong, the boat finally did not capsize this time, so Liu Dong felt as if the world was shattered for several long seconds.
Within seconds, when the yacht stubbornly emerged from the sea again, they had been pushed hundreds of meters away by the strong wind and huge waves.
Only then did Liu Dong realize that compared to the confusing sea storm, the storm he, Chen Mo, and Liang Sicheng experienced on the Yangtze River was as ridiculous as children playing house.
"This can't go on like this!"
Looking at Mei Xue, who was almost unable to hold on anymore, and the sea storm outside that seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, Liu Dong knew that he had to make changes.
After thinking for a while, Liu Dong no longer hesitated. Before the big waves hit, he let go of the steering wheel, stepped over to Mei Xue, and tapped the sleeping point on the back of her neck!
"Fortunately, I bought deep-diving equipment when I came out this time, otherwise it would have been really troublesome this time."
While feeling happy in his heart, Liu Dong took out a high-strength anti-G-force suit and special deep-diving equipment from the mustard space and put them on Mei Xue.
After everything was done, Liu Dong reached out to open the hatch next to him, hugged Mei Xue and got out.
"Whoa, whoosh...!"
In an instant, Liu Dong felt that the wind and waves around him had at least doubled in intensity, and the feeling inside and outside the cabin was really different.
However, Liu Dong didn't care that he would become a drowned rat in an instant. He slapped the yacht with his backhand, put it into the mustard space, and then fell into the rough ocean with Mei Xue in his arms!
When he dived to forty meters, although the seawater around him was still surging rapidly, Liu Dong obviously felt much safer than on the sea.
Compared to the sport of diving, generally a dive over forty meters is considered a deep dive. Although Liu Dong prepared deep diving equipment, and Mei Xue was young and had good physical fitness, Liu Dong still maintained this depth for several minutes.
, after seeing that there was nothing strange about Mei Xue, she continued to dive, but at a much slower speed.
As for Liu Dong himself, as long as the depth of the seawater does not exceed 300 meters, it is within his tolerance range. Moreover, his breath-holding time of up to one and a half hours and his physical fitness that is several times higher than that of ordinary people ensure that he has the greatest freedom in the seawater.
Spend.
However, when the dive reached about 80 meters, Mei Xue's body reached the bottom line and began to have obvious spasms.
Liu Dong, who was always paying attention to Mei Xue's movements, did not dare to neglect, and quickly floated up more than ten meters. When Mei Xue's body stabilized, he breathed a sigh of relief!
However, Mei Xue was fine, but Liu Dong himself had a headache. Originally, he had hoped to cross the ocean directly and walk under the seabed, but now it was obviously impossible.
Fortunately, at a distance of 70 meters from the sea, the surge of sea water is no longer as violent as that on the sea!
Liu Dong took out an oxygen bottle from the mustard space and put it on himself. Liu Dong carried Mei Xue behind him and began to swim forward. With the help of the surge of sea water and his strong body, his speed was not too slow, barely keeping up with jogging.
Same.
But looking at the deeper and deeper sea with the relic Yuan Guang, Liu Dong felt a deep toothache. If he could not speed up, no matter how strong his endurance was, there was no guarantee that he could swim out of the storm area.
And with Mei Xue's towing oil bottle, if the sunken ship was really found, he wouldn't dare to pick it up!
However, Liu Dong's luck was not too unlucky. After swimming forward for half an hour, the height of the seabed finally slowly rose.
"Very good!"
Under the light of the relics, Liu Dong was so happy when he saw that this should be a mountainous terrain under the sea. He hurriedly swam a distance, found a place 60 meters away from the sea, and made a 2*2 meter, five meter deep
After the surging seawater filled the deep hole, Liu Dong first collected a 125 cubic meter piece of earth from a short distance and put it into the mustard space, and then jumped into the previously dug hole.
After reaching the bottom of the cave, Liu Dong covered the entrance with 125 cubic meters of earth and rocks, then dug another rectangular hole of 2*2*5 horizontally, and then rushed in with the sea water. Then he immediately blocked the hole behind him.
live.
At this time, through the relic Yuan Guang Liu Dong also found that the outermost layer of 125 cubic meters of earth and stone could no longer withstand the huge pressure of the sea water and collapsed. Fortunately, he gambled twice in a row and finally made the hole made by Liu Dong become
Stabilize.
Liu Dong, who breathed a sigh of relief, had no scruples at the moment and went straight down, drilling to a depth of one hundred meters from the seabed. After ensuring that the seawater would not collapse the cave, he started digging holes in parallel.
Without the obstruction of the sea water, Liu Dong's speed suddenly increased. Although it was not a 100-meter sprint, 40 kilometers an hour was still guaranteed!
However, because the direction had shifted too much, Liu Dong took out a compass from the Mustard Seed Space, then buried his head and rushed forward.
Two hours or three hours later, the depth of the seawater had reached nearly 300 meters, but the storm area on the sea remained looming above his head. If he hadn't been so sure that he was not circling, Liu Donglian would have cried.
"Made, I'm so tired from running, can't you bring me a sunken ship to comfort me?" Liu Dong stopped suddenly as soon as he finished speaking.
"Which great immortal is so efficacious?"
With this thought, Liu Dong noticed that within the scope of the Relic Yuanguang, a warship about 30 meters long, 6 meters wide, and about 7 meters high, with a displacement of 600 tons, a double deck, and about 30 cannons suddenly appeared.
It's just that this battleship is lying crookedly in the sand, half of its body has been buried, and two large holes with a diameter of one meter have been broken in the waterline part of the hull on the right side. Presumably, this is what caused it to sink.
Here’s the reason!
