Chapter 589: Hero.
Before reporter Bassett could learn the ins and outs of the case and figure out the whole story, the red-eyed sailor battling the gigantic waves suddenly screamed loudly, the cameraman followed that call and quickly pointed the camera towards the porthole in the bow of the ship.
At this moment, audiences around the world could see a ship of incomparable size breaking waves in their direction in stormy waves.
In the curtain of rain, the ship seemed to have no end of height, and the dam erected went straight into the sky.
“Ah!” cried the three brave men aboard the speedboat.
The huge waves are extremely small in front of this ship. No matter how strong the wind is, he can never shake his huge steel body. Her bow is not the same as any ship; it is flat like a blunt hammer, encrusted with majestic and ruthless mastodon heads in the middle. The anchors hung on both sides seemed larger than their fast speedboat. They were huge anchors covered in a mist of rain.
Journalist Bassett rushed forward, trying to see the entire picture of the huge steel ship, but couldn’t see the whole picture.
Boom Boom Boom ~ the giant steel ship sailed through the waves, slicing through a huge wave that could only touch a third of its height and passed the speedboat.
“My ship has been ordered to save your ship, and this speedboat must move away immediately.”
The majestic voice of the steel giant came from the radio communicator.
The grieving American people suddenly rose from the sand and their chairs. Even the room where the President’s speech took place was taken in unprecedented surprise.
“Oh my God, whose monster’s symbol is?”
“Oh my God, what type of ship is it? It appears to be larger than the aircraft carrier. How can he appear here without being knocked down by the waves?”
“It’s the symbol of Monster Heavy Industry, and I know that logo.”
The next moment, the live broadcast room of the President and reporters near the Sapphire were swapped. The director quickly transformed Mr. President into a small screen, allowing the audience to better see the scene.
At that time… the Sapphire was no longer visible over the sea, and no huge shadows appeared in the crashing waves. The Sapphire was sunk by a huge wave.
“Does it late, my God, please give us some more time, why are you treating us like this?” Journalist Basset grabbed the rail and screamed and looked out the window.
Keng Keng ~ Keng Keng Keng ~
At that time, a sound of mechanical gears louder than a storm came from the sky.
As the speedboat quickly moved from its position, it also allowed the audience to see the full picture of the huge steel vessel gradually approaching. It was as huge as an aircraft carrier, and the ship’s steel boom was so high it never stopped.
Now the steel arrow moved quickly, detonating agility that is contrary to the huge physique and after a few breaths, the arrow moved to the side of the giant steel ship, and then everyone saw a shocking scene.
A row of giant steel claws as wide as the highway, pulled from the sky by thick steel cables. The giant claws slammed in the water, making a wave bigger than the ones before.
The sinking position of the giant claw was where the sapphire disappeared.
It was a scene, not everyone imagined: the huge steel ship, still motionless under the enormous inertia, turned its propeller upside down, circling the spot where the Sapphire disappeared.
In this way, without any exploration, research, meetings, and discussions, the experts were asked to make workable plans and came up with a variety of possible pre-plans, so that the giant claws were well laid.
No one could think of what is going to happen. The next moment there was a sound of a loud metallic collision coming from the bottom of the sea, then the boom of the giant steel ship began to rise and huge waves began to appear on the sea.
Ten seconds later, the Sapphire, which had sunk into the sea, was suddenly lifted.
They were six large iron claws the size of a highway. They accurately and firmly grasped the V-shaped bottom of the Sapphire. Due to their strength, the giant claws trapped the hull from the bottom of the ship.
The Sapphire, with a displacement of 9,000 tones, has just resurfaced. When a huge wave hit the surface of the sea, the huge steel ship, which added the weight of seawater to its hulk in the ship inevitably, shook violently.
“My God, this… what kind of a ship it is, I’ve never seen it before. But I recognize the logo on the bow of the ship, it’s the Monster Heavy Industry logo,” The Expert who was doing a show on TV was already excited to the point of the inconsistent speech.
“But…”
“But it’s very dangerous like that. In the environment huge waves appeared, it added extra weight, the weight of the seawater to the weight of the Sapphire, which made the center of gravity shift.”
“Wait ~ it’s impossible. Sapphire’s full load is close to 10,000 tons, and a lot of seawater has been dumped. No engineering ship in the world can lift it.”
It’s a shame that the words of the experts are not effective this time around.
After hoisting the Sapphire, the giant steel vessel was stopped by the power of the inverted propeller. Seawater rushed back into the sea from the Sapphire. After ten seconds, the steel giant let go of the giant claws attached to the front of the Sapphire, allowing the bow of the Sapphire to enter the water.
When the Sapphire hit the surface of the sea, a big wave appeared, it turned out that the Sapphire was advancing a bit. At that precise moment, the steel giant slapped and loosened its three giant claws.
The captain of the Sapphire was already excited and could be delighted to be able to get it moving again, and lo and behold the Sapphire was in action to straighten the hull and float on the water.
At the same time, due to the instability of the center of gravity, the crisis that could overthrow it was instantly repaired.
The claw that had come loose gripped the Sapphire deck again. One after another, two large holes appeared in the hull. The giant claws held him like a giant holding a small child so that he did not have to worry about any danger.
“Let’s check this moment out together.”
“Mr. President, I ask you to answer me, they have done their best.”
“Now I want to ask you to keep your eyes open, especially you, Mr. President. You can tell me if this scene is a masterpiece of God or a masterpiece of human science and technology?” Reporter Bassett went wild with excitement.
Six claws have been lifted, and now two have been separated to capture the Sapphire. The other four slammed straight into the sea, and the thick steel cable at the mouth of the bowl sank quickly.
Soon someone understood the meaning ~ this giant steel ship sank those claws to the bottom of the sea and serve as anchors.
The images were returned to the White House speech room, and the President made his mouth grow in front of the national audience.
The secretary of state and the speakers on the side were also silent.
Earlier, Mr. President had brought everyone to observe the Sapphire. The next moment, a huge steel ship straddling the wind, and waves rushed to save it from the water.
This process only took tens of minutes, and most of the time was the time it took to stabilize the hull.
“Heroes, the entire crew of this ship is heroes. The Sapphire is saved.»
“You can’t say anything else? ~ Only, let’s observe a silent tribute ~ How can I say that? Mr. President in mourning, or consider this giant steel ship a hero?”
“Did God bless us? It wasn’t God, and it was the heroic Monster Heavy Industry who saved us.”
“Mr. President, Your people need you, and this giant steel ship has come to their aid, he is the hero.”
“Haha ~ ridiculous, Mr. President said like a fool that there is no technology to save him and took us for a minute of silence. I am ready to let the captain of this steel giant become president because he is the hero in our hearts, we Americans! “
“I want to send calcium tablets to the White House. They need calcium supplements, or their bones will be soft and they will be unable to stand.”
From desperation to hope, in a matter of minutes, the mindset of the public changed. They were extremely disappointed with the behavior of the White House and became full of gratitude for the giant steel ship.
Looking at the pictures, the Sapphire is like a child, held alongside the giant steel ship. All the public, all the media, are all mad.
Excited, they threw away whatever they could throw away. There they would raise their arms screaming with excitement and anger.
“Long live the giant steel ship!”
“The White House is a mess!”
