Chapter 575: Full of Difficulties
He didn't know how the captain's terminal was doing. Ye Su looked into the distance, but what was disappointing was that the sky above was directly blocked by the octopus.
In desperation, Ye Su fired a shot at a node dense with blood vessels on the octopus's body. The laser gun directly penetrated the octopus's body, and a fierce water column with high pressure rushed in.
And that gap was also torn open rapidly under high pressure. However, it stopped leaking water soon. Looking at the arc that had sunken in a part, Ye Su immediately guessed that the octopus should have blocked it with its tentacles.
He had the heart to open two more holes, but looking at the situation, the big octopus should have already taken everyone into the deep sea. By then, the octopus wouldn't be dead, but the people on the ship would have already drowned.
So Ye Su decided to find the captain first to see if there was a solution. He walked along the narrow space between the containers toward the stern of the ship, and the woman behind him followed calmly.
Soon the two arrived at the cabin door at the stern. With the help of the light, they clearly saw the mist floating under the ship. They thought this mist should be the gas evaporated by the high temperature produced by the ship being corroded.
Not sure if it was poisonous, the two held their breath and quickly drilled into the cabin door.
The two easily found the captain and the others inside the ship cabin. Clearly, everyone had come to the cabin below the deck to take refuge.
"Captain!"
Ye Su had just greeted him when Xi Lin rushed up and hugged Ye Su.
"Ye, you actually left me behind. I was so scared! I was afraid something would happen to you."
Ye Su had no choice but to hug Xi Lin and comfort her first. Soon Xi Lin also realized that this was not good in public, and hurriedly let go of Ye Su with a blushing face.
At this time, Xi Lin saw the woman following Ye Su again and asked with jealousy:
"Who is she?"
"She's a stowaway with us. I don't know what her name is either, but she's willing to come up and help, I can't refuse."
Hearing Ye Su's words, Xi Lin's face softened by three points.
"You two talk first, I have something to deal with with the captain."
Seeing Ye Su finish dealing with his private affairs, the captain first expressed his gratitude for Ye Su's heroic performance earlier, and then the discussion fell into pessimism and despair.
"I didn't expect this voyage to end up in the belly of a fish. Although running the sea for a long time can't avoid such risks, who knew it would be such a big fish."
"Captain, now is not the time to be pessimistic. We are still alive, aren't we?"
"I tested it just now. We should be taken to the deep sea by the octopus now. But for now, how can we make the octopus surface? Otherwise, even if we kill it, we are on a dead end in the deep sea."
Hearing Ye Su's words, the captain thought for a moment and said: "Actually, to say that an octopus has two shortcomings, one is that its lifespan is relatively short, but looking at such a huge body, clearly the expert's words are unbelievable."
"Another one is that the octopus's respiratory organs are actually inside its body. We can destroy its parotid glands, forcing it to surface to breathe."
Hearing the captain's words, Ye Su's eyes lit up, but he turned back and asked:
"But then the octopus will definitely roll violently. I'm afraid we won't be able to stand it. What if the octopus dies and our ship capsizes?"
Hearing Ye Su's words, the captain smiled: "You know the principle of a gyroscope, right? We find a way to put half a cavity of water in the octopus's abdomen. No matter how the octopus rolls, the ship will only follow gravity vertically downward, but there will be big waves inside the abdominal cavity."
Hearing the captain's words, Ye Su understood immediately. However, the feasibility of these methods remains to be tested, but there is only one chance.
At this time, Ye Su asked: "By the way, Captain, why are you all below? I remember you went to the command center before!"
Mentioning this, the captain couldn't help but sigh. At this time, Old Qin stepped forward to explain:
"The terminal was collapsed by that octopus, so everyone had to hide in the cabin to take refuge."
Old Qin's words immediately made everyone in the cabin feel annoyed. The collapse of the terminal also meant that the compass system upstairs was damaged.
Even if everyone was lucky enough to escape from the octopus's belly, without satellite navigation instructions, wanting to return to the coast safely could be described as full of dangers.
It's not just the danger of getting lost, but also the reefs in the sea. Walking on an unknown route always makes people feel uneasy.
Looking at the low morale of the personnel in the cabin, Ye Su clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.
"I find that you all think quite far ahead. We are still in the belly of a giant beast and full of dangers, but you are not worried. It seems that everyone is very confident in escaping from this crisis!"
Hearing Ye Su's teasing, everyone immediately reacted. What everyone is facing now is how to escape from the belly of the giant beast.
Everyone walked out of the shadow of the terminal being destroyed. Recalling Ye Su's teasing, they couldn't help but show an embarrassed smile on their faces.
However, morale was finally there, so everyone could actively seek survival in the following environment and not hold back.
"Since that's the case, Captain, pick a group of people to go with me to find the octopus's parotid glands and force it to surface." ===== CHAPTER 577 =====
