The submarine shook violently and rushed upwards as if it had broken free from shackles.
"Success!" Zhou Jianghai couldn't help but cheer in a low voice.
"Five more meters!" Zhou Shuwan opened his eyes and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The submarine continued to rise at full speed, and the surrounding water became brighter and brighter.
Finally, with a dull "bang", the submarine broke through the water surface and sunlight instantly filled the cabin.
Fresh air rushed in, and everyone breathed in deeply, as if it was the most precious thing in the world.
However, before they could completely relax, the submarine suddenly made a harsh metallic friction sound.
"Warning! Starboard thruster power reduced!"
"The hull is severely damaged!"
Mu Mu's expression instantly became serious: "The submarine has been severely damaged..."
He worked quickly on the console, reading data, his brows furrowed more and more.
"There's a noticeable chip in the starboard propeller blade, power has dropped by 30%, and the main propeller's speed is unstable. The outer shell is dented in several places, with a large area of deformation on the right front. Although the pressure-resistant layer hasn't been penetrated, it has developed fine cracks."
Mu Mu's voice was hurried: "The most troublesome thing is the cooling system - the circulation pipe was cracked in the previous impact, and now there is a slight leak. If we continue to drive at high speed, the engine will probably overheat and shut down within two hours."
The cabin suddenly became quiet, and the only sound was the sound of waves hitting the submarine's hull.
"Then what should I do?" Zhong Tiyun asked in a trembling voice, unable to bear the disasters one after another.
Qi Mingyu's expression was serious. "We can't dive too deep, nor can we sail long distances. The most urgent task is to find a safe place to carry out emergency repairs."
There was an earthquake on the seabed just now, and no one knows whether it will affect here.
Zhou Shuwan looked out the window, searching the sea.
She could "see" that the sea water in the northeast was darker, there were significantly fewer floating objects, and the seabed terrain was relatively flat.
After a moment, she said, "Go northeast. It's safer there."
Qi Mingyu nodded immediately: "Mumu, adjust the course and proceed at a low speed."
The submarine slowly turned and headed northeast.
Actually they can change to a cruise ship here.
However, although this sea area is temporarily calm, the geological activities on the seabed have not completely stopped.
Cruise ships have too deep a draft and can easily lose control if they suddenly encounter a trench collapse, undercurrent or volcanic gas eruption.
Cruise ships are not as capable of withstanding waves in open waters as submarines, and once they encounter sudden huge waves, they have almost no time to react.
Submarines are small in size, maneuverable and flexible, and can quickly adjust their posture to avoid danger.
So Zhou Shuwan and his team decided to wait until the safe area was confirmed and all risk points were avoided before releasing the cruise ship and repairing the submarine.
Occasionally, a few rays of sunlight shone through the clouds on the sea, illuminating the volcanic debris floating on the water, like a piece of broken glass flashing on the sea.
About half an hour later, the submarine sailed out of the area with dense floating objects, and the surrounding sea surface became much cleaner.
"We can dock here," Zhou Shuwan said. "The water flow is gentle, and there are no signs of geological activity for the time being."
Qi Mingyu nodded: "Okay."
Everyone quickly changed into diving suits.
The heavy diving suits made their movements a little clumsy, but in these troubled waters, they were their only protection.
Zhou Shuwan calmly extended his hand.
The next moment, a large silver-white cruise ship appeared on the sea, floating quietly, as if it had been waiting there for them.
Everyone jumped into the sea one after another.
Zhou Shuwan was the last one to leave the submarine.
Then she put the submarine into space.
A few minutes later, everyone climbed onto the cruise ship.
After experiencing that thrilling underwater adventure, when the few people stood on the deck and looked at the vague volcanic ash and debris in the distance, their faces were full of relief.
This time, they escaped again.
Zhong Tiyun leaned on the railing, her face still a little pale.
