Chapter 75 Storm

The Endurance has been traveling for nearly 20 days. Although there have been clouds and rains during this period, it is generally stable.

Soon, the ship will sail into the Dragon Triangle area. Severe storms often occur in that area, and nearby ships often disappear.

With Green as an experienced helmsman, Captain Ross has not been too worried. The two old men are old acquaintances of Laura's father. The three of them have completed many expeditions together and are close brothers.

However, Laura's father has passed away long ago, and the two of them have become Laura's father-like elders. Among them, Ross has been serving as Laura's adventure mentor, teaching her various survival skills and telling her about her long-dead life.

past events of my parents.

In the cabin, Xia Yu selected items necessary for survival, such as magnesium rods and flints, medical kits, high-energy food, etc.

He stuffed all these things into a large waterproof backpack as much as possible so that he could survive better when he was stranded on a desert island.

He knew the plot of Tomb Raider 9. Although he could no longer remember the exact details, he could still recall the general development of the plot.

When the ship entered the Dragon Triangle, if nothing unexpected happened, there would definitely be something unexpected next. What was even more unsurprising was that, except for the important members of the expedition team, everyone on the ship had accidents.

However, even if the members of the expedition survive the accident, accidents will happen on the island, and by the time everything ends, only four people will be left alive.

Xia Yu was not sure that he could save everyone. He could only save the people he cared about as much as possible. In addition to Laura, there were also Ross and Green who had an accident. These two old men were also very good to him. He thought

To change the fate of these two sacrifices.

But for now, let's wait for the storm that changes everything.

Time passed in a blink of an eye and came a few days later. Although Xia Yu knew that the ship would definitely encounter a storm that would tear the hull apart, he had forgotten the exact time and only remembered that it was night.

Therefore, after packing his backpack, Xia Yu returned to his cabin early every night, waiting for the storm that might come at any time.

Dragon Triangle, south of Japan, Endurance Expedition—Day 22, 23:00 pm.

Xia Yu is still awake at this point. As a young man in the new century, he has his own new standards. Staying up late is not considered until 1 am.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that since he went to college, he has never gone to bed before midnight. Tsk, he will die suddenly sooner or later.

Just as Xia Yu was scrolling through the jokes on his phone and randomly clicking likes, the ship suddenly began to rock up and down. The shaking was so large that the books on the desk fell to the floor.

Before he could sit up, the ship's hull shook violently, causing him to roll off the bed and hit a raised edge on the side.

"hiss……"

Xia Yu, who was paralyzed on the ground, supported his desk and stood up while holding his side. The pain just now really hurt. If he were an ordinary person, he would definitely have internal bleeding in his waist and abdomen, or even a bone fracture.

After relieving the pain, Xia Yu quickly changed his clothes, grabbed the large backpack that had been prepared, steadied himself, opened the hatch and hurried out.

He wants to find Laura. He wants to avoid the scene at the beginning of the game. The game is not reality. No one can survive on a desert island after being stabbed through the side by a rusty steel bar.

Whether it is wound infection or excessive blood loss, it will kill a person on a desert island, especially in a dirty and damp cave.

On the other side, Laura's room.

A few minutes ago, Laura was half lying on the bed, listening to music with headphones on her ears, but a shaking in the cabin caught her attention.

She had just taken off her earphones and looked out the window when the ship tilted sharply. As a result, she was unable to steady her body and was knocked directly to the floor.

With a cry of pain, Laura endured the pain and pushed herself up. Before she could figure out what happened, the ship began to rock violently again.

It was as if there was an invisible giant hand tearing the ship wantonly, and it seemed that it would never stop until the hull was torn in half.

Laura, whose head still hurt a little, didn't dare to hesitate, held her head and opened the cabin door, but as soon as she stepped out, sea water suddenly poured into the cabin through the damaged opening!

The violent impact directly swept her into the seawater pouring into the cabin. At this moment, the position was submerged by the seawater, and there was almost no place to escape.

Laura held her breath and swam up to the water, but the porthole to the upper deckhouse could not be opened. The water below had already overflowed and was about to flood the last space.

Laura, who banged on the porthole for help, couldn't help but feel desperate. The seawater had flooded her head, and all her life's experiences had begun to fly past her eyes.

After the water completely submerged this place, Laura even gave up completely and allowed herself to sink slowly.

But the next moment——

A figure suddenly opened the porthole from the upper floor, thrust his upper body into the water and pulled her up from the sea.

"Cough cough cough..."

After breathing in the fresh air, Laura coughed violently and coughed out the seawater that had been choked in her throat. The person who came also patted her back to help her cough out the seawater.

After she recovered, Laura saw clearly the person who came, it was Xia Yu who came to find her.

"Oh... I knew you would come to save me." Laura's eyes turned red, she hugged Xia Yu tremblingly, and sobbed softly.

"Okay, okay, don't be afraid, I'm here." Xia Yu comforted Laura while patting Laura on the back, "This part of the hull is about to sink. Let's go to Ross as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Laura looked up and looked around. The entire ship had been completely torn in half by the storm, as if it had been torn apart by brute force. The hull at the break was uneven. In the violent storm,

Debris flying around.

The broken hull on their side is heavier and will definitely sink to the bottom of the sea first. If they don't get to Ross's half of the hull quickly, they will end up sinking with this half of the ship.

If you unfortunately fall into the sea, the whirlpool caused by the sinking hull, coupled with the violent wind and waves, will make it difficult to escape no matter how good you swim.

Seeing this, Laura felt anxious and uneasy, but when she thought that Xia Yu was by her side, she couldn't help but feel reassured.

At this time, she also saw Ross on the other side of the broken hull, waving to the two of them, as if he was letting them pass.

Taking a deep breath of cold air, Laura helped Xia Yu stand up, then nodded to Xia Yu, strode towards the fracture in the hull, and she wanted to jump over.

After the run-up, Laura stepped on the break and jumped suddenly. Ross on the other side also stretched out his hand, ready to catch Laura.

The figure leaping into the air fell with inertia, and when it was about to fall into the sea, Ross grabbed it with his hand.

"Snapped!"

The two hands were tightly held together, but before Ross could pull Laura up, the inertia of falling caused the two hands to gradually slide apart.

The next moment, the rain completely caused their hands to slip away, and Laura's figure fell rapidly. She looked at Rose's shouting figure, but the sound had been lost in her ears.

She stretched out her hands helplessly, but no one could hold her. At this moment, Laura was desperate.

But in the next second, another figure appeared in front of her. It was Xia Yu, and he also jumped down.

Laura's eyes widened as she fell, and all she could see was Xia Yu's anxious face. Time seemed to stop until the other party grabbed her hand.

Then the two fell into the sea together.

Xia Yu successfully caught Laura. After they both fell into the sea, he hurriedly pulled Laura and swam towards the sea.

Reality is not a game. There is no ability to come back after death. Even if Laura is a superhuman in the game, she is just a little girl now.

His level 4 swimming skills were enough for him to survive in the stormy waves. After catching a glimpse of the deserted island not far away, Xia Yu hurriedly swam towards the beach with Laura in his arms.

The rest of the expedition team should be able to survive if nothing unexpected happens, so there is no need to worry about others for the time being.
