Chapter 1043
First, a dull "boom" sound came from the bottom of the sea, like a giant beast lurking in the deep sea suddenly roaring, shaking the sea water slightly.
The next second, an even more violent explosion suddenly tore open the sea surface, and a sky-high column of water, carrying rubble and flames, rose from the ground to a height of dozens of meters. When it fell heavily, the huge waves it raised were like a black wall, rolling towards the surroundings.
In the turbid sea water, twisted steel bars with sharp broken ends were rushing through the waves.
Countless wooden boards and corpses were floating on the sea, and the situation was extremely tragic.
He Chengshi's cruise ship was already a dying candle in the wind, with the hull tilted almost in half. At this moment, it was hit hard again by the aftermath of the underwater explosion, and the whole ship made a mournful "creaking" sound.
The railing at the edge of the deck broke first, carrying several bodies that had no time to grab onto anything and fell into the sea.
Immediately afterwards, the steel plates on the middle deck began to fall down piece by piece, revealing the burning flames and choking black smoke in the cabin.
He Chengshi lay on the wreckage on the deck, most of his hair was burnt, his face was covered with black ash and bloodstains, and he could only watch his ship being swallowed by the sea bit by bit.
Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu in the sea were pushed back by the huge waves.
Fortunately, the moment Qi Mingyu heard Zhou Shuwan shout "torpedo", he pulled Mu Mu towards the reefs on the right.
The jagged shape of the reef was just enough to block the impact of the explosion.
At this moment, the two of them were clinging to the cracks in the reef. The force of the waves hitting the reef almost numbed their fingers. There was a buzzing sound in their ears, and they could not even see each other's faces clearly.
Violent explosion waves surged around, and every vibration caused the gravel on the reef to fall down, hitting the diving helmet with a dull "clang" sound.
Qi Mingyu felt the air in his chest vibrate, his throat tightened, and he could hardly speak.
When the waves subsided a bit, Qi Mingyu was finally able to yell at the top of his lungs, "How long until we can fill up the tank?"
As soon as the voice came out, it was mostly drowned out by his tinnitus. He could only make a cheering gesture to Mu Mu and repeat the question.
Mu Mu was stunned for two seconds before reacting, and immediately looked at the time.
They had calculated the time before and found out that it would take several hours to fill up the cruise ship with fuel.
Just over half an hour has passed.
However, within this half hour, both sides suffered heavy losses.
Qi Mingyu's heart sank suddenly.
It will take more than four hours!
He looked up at the cruise ship in the distance and saw Zhou Shuwan controlling the ship. Zhong Tiyun on the deck was holding a gun and staring vigilantly at the enemies who were still struggling on the sea.
Zhou Jianghai was leaning against the water tank at this moment, and seemed not to have woken up yet.
He made a decision immediately.
This is not the way to go.
Given the current situation, it is hard to say whether their cruise ship can survive the next wave of impact, let alone wait for the fuel to be refueled.
He stared at the direction where He Chengshi was, and saw several small boats with smoke coming out of them approaching the sunken ship, and He Chengshi's men were dragging him onto the boats.
"Kidnap him!" Qi Mingyu suddenly grabbed Mu Mu's wrist and shouted into his ear.
The sea breeze carried the sound of explosions, forcing him to get very close: "He Chengshi is their backbone. If we capture him, those men will be in chaos!"
Mu Mu's eyes lit up instantly, he nodded vigorously and made a "raid" gesture.
The two exchanged glances, let go of the reef at the same time, and dived into the turbid sea water like two loaches.
The mud and sand kicked up by the explosion had not yet settled, which served as a natural cover. They swam silently towards the boat, sticking to the reefs on the seabed and avoiding floating debris.
He Chengshi was being carried onto the boat by two of his men, and the wound on his chest made him grimace in pain.
He didn't notice that two dark figures had swam up from the shadows under the boat.
Qi Mingyu was the first to touch the bottom of the boat, hooked his fingers on the gap of the hull, and suddenly jumped up.
His shoulder knocked away a man who was pulling He Chengshi. The man screamed, but before he could turn around, Qi Mingyu hit him on the temple with an elbow and he fell straight into the sea.
"Who?!" He Chengshi turned around suddenly. The moment he saw Qi Mingyu, the anger in his eyes turned into astonishment: "It's you?!"
Just as he was about to reach for the gun at his waist, Mu Mu had already climbed onto the boat from the other side, with the sharp tip of the dagger pressed against his throat.
The cold metal touched his skin, and He Chengshi's body froze instantly.
Seeing this, the men around them pointed their guns at Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu, but no one dared to shoot easily.
"Put down your guns!" Qi Mingyu snatched He Chengshi's gun and pressed it against the back of his head. His voice was as cold as the sea water: "Tell your people to move away and not approach our cruise ship, or I will kill them right now!"
He Chengshi was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he didn't dare to struggle. He could only yell at his men: "Are you crazy? Can't you see I'm here? Put down your guns!"
The men looked at each other, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally slowly put down their guns.
Qi Mingyu grabbed He Chengshi by the collar and pressed the muzzle of his gun to his temple: "Tell them to retreat all the boats to 500 meters! Otherwise, my gun won't have eyes!!"
He Chengshi's eyes were red, his teeth were gnashed, and he glared at Qi Mingyu fiercely: "Do you think you can get away just by arresting me? My people are all over this sea area, you can't escape!"
"Whether you can run or not is not up to you." Qi Mingyu was very calm, but the force that restrained his shoulders was very strong.
He Chengshi watched his men slowly move the boat backwards, feeling angry and anxious, but helpless.
Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu held him on both sides and took him to the driving seat of the boat.
Qi Mingyu took the rope handed to him by Mu Mu, tied He Chengshi's hands behind his back, and blocked his mouth with a cloth strip.
He Chengshi stared at Qi Mingyu, his eyes almost spitting fire, but he could only make a "woohoo" sound.
Qi Mingyu winked at Mu Mu and asked him to check the condition of the hose.
The battle just now was so fierce that they couldn't be sure that the hose was not damaged.
Mu Mu nodded, stared at He Chengshi who was very unwilling, reminded Qi Mingyu to be careful, and then jumped into the sea again.
He Chengshi's chest heaved violently, and from his mouth blocked by a cloth came a "woohoo" howl. His eyes were like poisoned knives, staring intently at Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu.
Qi Mingyu had no time to pay attention to his hatred, his eyes fixed on the sea in the distance.
Although He Chengshi's men retreated to 500 meters away, they were still lingering. More than 20 small boats spread out in a fan shape, like a group of hungry wolves waiting for an opportunity.
Qi Mingyu looked at the cruise ship again.
Because all of He Chengshi's men had retreated outside at this time, Zhou Shuwan finally had the opportunity to run to the deck.
She was treating Zhou Jianghai's wound anxiously but calmly.
