The adjutant quickly walked to the control panel and quickly checked the data. Then his face became serious. "Captain, the thunderstorm outside is causing too much interference. Our equipment cannot accurately detect the situation ahead."
There were lightning and thunder outside, the waves were surging, and it was eternal night again, so I couldn't see anything!
So they can’t report anything!
Captain Chen's face darkened. He turned to look at Zhou Shuwan with hesitation in his eyes. "Xiao Zhou, how can you be sure there's a storm surge ahead?"
Zhou Shuwan looked him straight in the eye and said calmly, "I have a keen sense of direction. It's my intuition, and my intuition has never been wrong."
In order to conceal the existence of the space, she could only shamelessly describe herself as a person with powerful talents!
Captain Chen stared at her for a moment, and finally made up his mind.
As mentioned before, he is a man of great courage and trust in his intuition, otherwise he would not have led this fleet so far in the apocalypse.
Captain Chen has great trust in Zhou Shuwan because of everything that happened to her before. He believes that she is not someone who acts without purpose!
He decisively ordered: "Everyone listen up, immediately adjust the course and turn 30 degrees to the north!"
The crew acted quickly, and the mother ship turned around with difficulty in the waves and headed towards the safe area in the north.
The roar of machinery was even more deafening against the background of heavy rain.
The adjutant loudly repeated Captain Chen's orders, while the other crew members nervously operated various instruments, trying to control the mother ship that was shaking like a broken barrel in the wind and rain.
Sweat soaked the crew members' clothes, and each of their faces was serious.
"Adjust the course another 15 degrees!" Zhou Shuwan suddenly spoke. Although his voice was not loud, it was particularly clear in the noisy cockpit.
Captain Chen gave the order without hesitation.
The crew members operated quickly and the mother ship's course was fine-tuned again.
Zhou Shuwan's gaze was still fixed on the sea in the distance, as if he could see the surging waves through the rain.
The speed of the huge storm surge was much faster than Zhou Shuwan had expected.
Half an hour later, the mothership suddenly shook violently, as if it was slapped by a giant hand.
The instruments in the cockpit issued a shrill alarm and flashed red lights, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense.
Zhou Shuwan's body tilted violently as the ship swayed, but fortunately the adjutant was beside her and held her with one hand.
Zhou Shuwan didn't have time to thank him before he shouted at the top of his voice: "Continue to adjust the course by 10 degrees!"
Captain Chen also gripped the emergency handle above his head with one hand and waved with the other: "Quick adjustment!"
The sailors acted quickly. Each of them could hardly stand and fell to the ground more than once, but once they stood up, they immediately devoted themselves to the tasks they were responsible for.
The mothership shook violently under the impact of the tsunami, and the hull seemed to be torn apart at any time.
The cockpit was in chaos, with the shrill alarms and the roar of the ship intertwined, making it almost impossible to think.
But they must try to avoid the biggest shock waves before the center of the storm surge arrives.
The huge waves were getting closer and closer, like a towering city wall, heading straight for the mothership.
Zhou Shuwan's body tilted violently as the ship swayed, and he almost fell again.
She quickly grabbed the edge of the console to steady herself, her eyes still fixed on the huge waves ahead.
Her voice remained calm, but with a hint of urgency: "Keep adjusting our course. We can't be hit head-on!"
The mother ship struggled to move forward under the impact of the tsunami. Huge waves hit the hull and sea water surged onto the deck, making a "gurgling" sound.
The crew members in the cockpit held on to the fixings tightly, their bodies swaying from side to side with the shaking of the ship, and tension written all over everyone's face.
In the end, the mothership narrowly avoided the center of the tsunami at the critical moment.
However, the edge of the huge wave still hit the hull hard, and the hull of the mothership shook violently, as if it would be overturned at any time.
The instruments in the cockpit kept emitting shrill alarms and flashing red lights.
"Hold on! Hold on!" Captain Chen shouted loudly, his voice almost drowned out by the roar of the ship.
After an unknown amount of time, the mothership finally stabilized under the impact of the tsunami.
However, the hull was severely damaged and the navigation system was paralyzed again, as if it could fall apart at any time.
On the deck, rain poured down like a waterfall, mixed with the loud sound of waves hitting the hull, forming a terrifying symphony.
The subordinate reported: "Captain, the ship's power system is severely damaged. It is estimated to take more than 20 hours to fully repair. We are currently attempting to start the backup engine."
"Try starting the backup engine." Captain Chen said seriously.
He turned to look at the scene outside the window and pursed his lips.
They avoided a very dangerous storm surge, but the thunderstorm disaster was far from over.
This meant that he could not send maintenance personnel to repair the power system, and they would need to drift on the vast ocean for a day, no, maybe even two or three days.
The time for everyone to go home was delayed again.
Zhou Shuwan's body swayed with the swaying of the ship. She said to Captain Chen, "Captain Chen, there's nothing I can do now. I need to go back to the dormitory to make sure my family is safe."
Captain Chen nodded and said, "It's not safe yet. It's too dangerous for a girl like you to go back alone. Adjutant, please get two other people to help take Xiao Zhou back!"
The adjutant saluted with a snap: "Yes!"
Zhou Shuwan was startled and looked at Captain Chen.
She has been here every day for the past twenty days, but the cockpit is very busy.
Although Captain Chen was very kind and caring towards her and Qi Mingyu, he had never been so caring towards them.
Captain Chen had already turned around and got busy.
The adjutant brought two navy officers to escort Zhou Shuwan back.
With their help, Zhou Shuwan's return journey was smooth.
When they arrived at the dormitory door, the adjutant took the two sailors and said goodbye.
Zhou Shuwan knew that they were very busy and now was not the time to invite anyone over, so he thanked them and watched them leave before knocking on the door.
Mu Mu came to open the door and was very happy to see her: "Sister, we were just talking about whether we should go to the cockpit to pick you up!"
Zhou Shuwan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his father, mother and Qi Mingyu were all fixed in their respective positions and everything was fine.
"I was really scared when that huge wave came just now!" Zhong Tiyun was still in shock.
A huge wave more than 20 meters high hit the hull, and a column of lightning flashed across the sky, allowing them to clearly see the scene of the huge wave rushing towards them.
At that time, on the dark sea, huge waves more than 20 meters high were like a moving black wall, smashing towards the hull with the force of thunder.
In an instant, several pale lightning pillars tore through the sky, illuminating the hideous outline of the huge waves - the crests of the waves were rolling with hideous white foam, and the waves were wrapped in the power of overwhelming waves, as if they were going to push the entire ship into the seabed.
