Chapter 588: 586: Emergency Request from the White House

The Sapphire encountered an unprecedented dilemma.

The Sapphire is 150 metres long and 20 metres wide, carrying two fuel engines totalling 12,000 horsepower.

One of the fuel engines suffered a major malfunction, which resulted in the loss of power to the propeller on the left.

If the wind calms down, the Sapphire can still run at full power on another fuel engine and take itself back to the port.

But now the giant wave is higher than its feeding line, holding the sapphire of the windy wave, can only spin in place one by one.

This is the RB trench area, even if it is only sixty-seven nautical miles from the port, and the depth of the water below the sapphire is more than 2,000 meters. Its hundred meters long anchor can only look at the deep sea and weep.

“This is the dispatch center, please hold your course and try not to wave in the hull, we will try to send rescue troops. ”

“Damn, you send a rescue team right away.” Brady, captain of the Sapphire, yelled out loud.

Side rudder, already tired and about to fall apart. The semi-high rudder was turned into a windmill, trying to keep the bow position facing the waves.

The luxury room in the cabin is already a scream.

The tourists here, who are not the most upscale people who live in the shadows all day, have experienced this kind of turbulence?

“Son, I'm in RB waters now, and the Sapphire I'm riding has had stormy weather, and now it seems to have malfunctioned and has been spinning in place. If anything happens to me, please take care of your mother and be strong and don't be sad about my departure. ”

“Honey, you're here. I'm on the Sapphire now, and if you hear a message and I don't keep in touch with you, it's likely something happened to me. My account password is my birthday and I own accounts at Citi, Morgan and three banks in Rich Country. In addition, there is a stock account in Ruitong, where there is a lot of money... hmm ~ anyway. Remember the Apple stock in there, and do it at 150, or I won't be happy in heaven. ”

“Daddy ~ Me and Callis were on the Sapphire, and we had a storm and a storm. I'm scared. Now the cruise ship's broken. I don't want to die. Daddy, you asked Uncle Lackley of Guam to send a helicopter to save me. ”

The Sapphire is equipped with the latest satellite and wireless communication system, and every room has a telephone. Almost all passengers started calling home while the communication was still working.

Everyone was in a desperate mood, and visitors could see the waves of the outer sea directly through the starboard windows and ravage the Sapphire.

The Sapphire in the Wave, like a fabric doll on an air mattress bed, was thrown away.

The crew report, along with a call from a tourist, returned to the United States, and the families blew it up.

Their loved ones are in the waves, ready to fall?

This kind of thing breaks down on anyone, and they immediately use their relationship. Pressure has been placed on the major media, on the Government and on the Royal Gale Cruise Group to come up with a rescue plan now, immediately and immediately.

Ten minutes later, the nation vibrated.

Mr. President immediately stopped everything in his hands and called a press conference for the White House.

The president of Royal Gale Cruise Group flew to RB on a fast charter plane, while major news websites promoted the news with their best rights.

Urgent ~ More than 200 tourists are caught in RB waters, there is a life-threatening situation.

[Sapphire cruise ship, one of the top ten luxuries in the world, is trapped in RB waters by a storm and is ready to sink.

[SOS, Somebody save Sapphire.

The media bombed the nest collectively, even with nationwide internet users. Today in the twenty-first century, today, when technology is so developed. How could this happen and let everyone watch a luxury cruise ship carrying more than 200 tourists sink in the eyes of the nation at any time?

Within the emergency rescue team set up by the White House, the atmosphere was suddenly stifling with the crew list sent by the Royal Caribbean Group.

120 crew, 221 passengers. Among these passengers are retired senior lawyers and retired company management. There are parents and wives of the Wall Street elites, and there are councillors' families.

No wonder sapphire cruises can be luxurious for thousands of people in size. The entire cruise ship now serves more than two hundred people and lives in a luxury room comparable to the Presidential Suite, and the average person can't afford its tickets.

Half an hour later, news travels all over the world.

European countries, major news websites in Huaxia, have covered this shocking headline.

“Shocked ~ RB has caused a cruise ship in the United States to crash due to severe weather forecasting failures. ”

“There was a big breaking news, and the RB Meteorological Department caused a terrible disaster. ”

“A luxury cruise ship turns into a mission ship, let's pray for the Sapphire. ”

However, media outlets around the world are racing to send photographers to the nearest island of Puyue Miyagi, the waters where the Sapphire is located. The RB media and the government, at this moment, are silent.

Even…

Even Miyagi Puyue Island's dispatch center became silent.

The RB Coast Guard overwhelmingly squeezed a piece of news out of the rage of major media outlets and public outcasts, driven by the madness of the United States.

They are trying to do everything in their power to start the rescue, but in the waters where the Sapphire is located, the storm is getting heavy and it is impossible for the helicopter to fly past and transfer passengers. Nor can a regular vessel approach the Sapphire in such circumstances. Because both ships are bumpy in the waves, the closer they get, the more likely they are to be to collision hazards.

But...

They have mobilized five high-speed speedboats, the crew risking their lives to reach the sea where the incident occurred. No surprises, the first high-speed speedboats will arrive in 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, the United States Meteorological Department has collected the latest local meteorological information via satellite.

The data indicates that a storm cloud is gathering over the sea. At the same time, high temperatures in the previous week, rising water temperatures and a significant evaporation ratio of sea water caused an increase in airflow, resulting in a tropical storm.

Now that the local wind has reached the 9: 05 level, there seems to be an increase in the intensity, and so on to 10, the typhoon.

Twenty minutes later, five fast sailing speedboats made it through one wave after another. At the strong request of the United States, the security services had to return to the scene for real-time shooting.

Countless people covered their lips and couldn't breathe when major American media received real-time live images.

All the landscape facilities and buildings on the sapphire deck have been completely destroyed by the waves, losing half their power. It is turning its course again and again, trying to hit the waves with the bow as hard as possible.

The families saw live images on the news, and their heartache was almost faint.

Yet in the face of the roar of nature, the power of human industry and technology has become very small.

After many people searched the Internet for the location of that area, they demanded that Guam's United States military base, more than 1,000 kilometres away, dispatch rescue planes.

In their impression, the U.S. Air Force is absolutely omnipotent, fighting the world, fighting aliens, fighting monsters.

This time, however, Guam Air Force Base performed worse than RB. There is only one sentence from the beginning to the end: when local weather conditions permit, we will dispatch the aircraft at the first time.

Five speedboats roaming the scene were stuck for only half an hour, and three of them could no longer hold on and had to turn back. Because they have to keep moving at high speeds to hit the waves again and again, not even close to the Sapphire.

At 2.08 p.m., the White House press spokesperson made the most urgent appeal to the world's media.

“On behalf of the United States Government, I extend my most sincere appeal to the countries near the waters where the sapphires are located. ”

“Any official, any organization, any company, save the Sapphire whenever you have the ability. ”

As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked.
