Master of Thermodynamics
Chapter 187
It has been proved that the trimaran''s structure is quite reliable and it has withstood bumps.
Then the "pit" rebounded, the sea oscillated several times, and finally recovered "calm".
Of course, the word "calm" is only relative to "mound of sea water".
At this time, the sea was still rough and rough, but after the test just now, everyone on the deck felt from the bottom of their heart that such a storm was really lovely.
After realizing that the "change" had passed completely, the sailors on the deck couldn''t help but give a loud cheering, and then the same warm celebration was heard in every corner of the Haichao.
Even in a safer cabin, the rest of the boat didn''t feel better.
Listen to the sailors crazy vent the joy of the afterlife, Renault can''t help shaking his head and laughing.
He did not interfere, nor did captain Elon. He just let everyone vent their emotions.
Renault took a flight around the tide and examined every corner of the hull.
The results were mixed.
Fortunately, although the "sea mound" is so shocking, the main body of the ship is undamaged, and there is almost no deformation of the hull film, which also shows that the internal structure is very stable.
It seems that the strength of the metal keel is enough to withstand such an emergency.
The worry is that the "wings" connecting the boats on both sides have obvious deformation, especially on the left side, even the star blue ferroalloy with amazing strength has nearly 10 mm bending, and the situation on the right side is slightly better, but there are also many deformations.
This shows that the strength of the two wings is insufficient, and the main structure of the wing needs to be redesigned, which also means that more star blue ferroalloys need to be used.
The current structure can withstand the turbulence, but it is not enough to withstand the sudden upwelling of the seabed.
Because of the same metal keel, the two auxiliary ships on both sides were safe and sound, but they had been soaking in the sea for a long time, and there was some water inside.
But it doesn''t matter.
As early as in the design stage, the navigation and maritime department took this situation into consideration. Magic pumps were installed inside the boats, and there were also special drainage channels. After a while, just send someone to start the magic pumps installed inside.
As for how to adjust the design of the trimaran and how to transform the hull, Renault is not going to deal with it any more. Let Elon have a headache.
After the sailors celebrated, Elon also issued a series of instructions at the right time, and the sea tide was suddenly busy with sailors running everywhere.
Cleaning the deck, draining the water, arranging the cabin and treating the wounded all required manpower, and even the island guards shared part of the work under the command of moss.
In order to deal with the turbulence, the main objects inside the cabin are fixed, especially those heavy objects, so as to avoid sudden movement and injury.
But many small things are difficult to fix. In the violent turbulence just now, they were scattered all over the ground. Most of the cabins are in a mess and need to be reorganized.
It''s a little funny that some unfortunate people survived the violent oscillation, but they were injured by these flying little things.
In addition, there were more than a dozen sailors who did not hold fast and accidentally fell. However, the injuries of all the wounded were not serious, most of them were mainly bruises, which also made the doctors on board very busy.
The devil''s wave Asked Renault curiously.
"Yes, Lord, the upwelling we just encountered should be the devil''s wave in the rumor."
When Elon saw that Renault was interested, he immediately began to explain it in detail. For him, the secret that he had been wandering on the sea for many years and ordinary people could not know was common sense.
"It is said that the devil''s wave only appears in the peak of the storm season, that is, the first snow month and the cold winter month, and only in the deep ocean. Generally speaking, it is a very rare Marine disasters. "
"The devil''s wave has a very wide range, at least more than 10 square kilometers, even more than 100 square kilometers of super giant devil''s wave has also appeared, Haichao just encountered the devil''s wave is not big..."
At this point, there was a trace of fear on his face.
As for why this phenomenon is called "devil''s wave", Elon has no explanation, and there is no need to explain.
In the alien world, the name of "devil" often indicates death. The meaning of devil''s wave obviously means that it will only bring death.
"In the last 100 years, there have been no more than three recorded" devil''s wave "incidents, all of which resulted in the destruction of ships and the death of people."
"I remember that the latest devil''s wave incident happened more than 30 years ago. At that time, two 1500 ton main warships belonging to the navy of the Silver Lion Kingdom risked their voyage in the storm season in the southern Xinghai continent, and unfortunately encountered the devil''s wave."
"According to the rumor, the two warships capsized on the spot. Under the huge impact force, their main masts were directly broken. Except for one of them, your excellency, who was with the extraordinary water system successfully escaped, no one else was spared..."Listening to Elon''s tragedy, Renault can''t help feeling sad.
In the storm season, the storm and turbulence alone are enough to make people afraid. Unexpectedly, there are more terrible things like devil''s wave.
This is only a phenomenon observed by human beings. How many phenomena have not been observed?
Conquering the storm season is not as easy as Renault imagined, and the "prestige" of the storm season is not empty mouthed, but written with countless lives.
However, Renault''s determination will not be shaken even if the road ahead is more dangerous, or even if there is a heavy loss of "sinking of the whole fleet".
The ocean must be in your own hands!
After hearing enough of the story, Renault finally got down to business.
"Elon, where are you going to escape the coming storm?"
Elon bent slightly and said, "Sir, please allow me to have a look at the chart..."
Renault made a sign for Elon to help himself.
He knew that Elon didn''t know where to avoid. In fact, the old man knew so much about the ocean that few people knew.
When the white tailed sparrow was sailing, Elon, who was also the captain and navigator, led us safely to Odin island by memory alone.
Therefore, the purpose of Elon''s chart acquisition is obviously just to facilitate Renault''s understanding. No matter how accurate the language is in describing geographic information, it is not as intuitive as a map.
Only when he was tactful and tactful would he deliberately say "allow me to have a look at the sea map". It seemed that he was not familiar with the surrounding situation, and he took care of the Lord''s face by deliberately belittling himself.
Lord knows that you are an expert, but is it really necessary to show an attitude of "I am an expert, I am sure I am right" in front of a superior?
No!
It''s not good at all. If you meet a narrow-minded superior, you may be able to attract disaster for yourself.
This kind of subtle speaking skill is by no means easy for a little boy to master.
After the slightly old chart was laid on the table, Elon pointed to the sign of an island and said, "Lord, I think boot island should be the best place to escape. According to rough estimation, we are less than 50 nautical miles away from it."
"There is a ridge in the middle of the island and a bay in the south. If you park in the Bay, you can just use the ridge to block the strong wind and huge waves going south."
We are in the northeast of it. Now the north wind is strong. The sails can borrow more wind and sail at the speed of second gear. It only takes three hours at most for the Haichao to reach the boot island... "
Renault can''t help nodding. Elon is really old enough. Second gear is the most economical speed and the most fuel-efficient.
"Do as you say. By the way, why is this island called boot island? Is it because it looks like leather boots? " Asked Renault curiously.
"Sir, this name is related to the tradition of pirates in Odin island. In the past, every time they passed by the boot Island, some recently unlucky pirates would throw their broken boots on the island, hoping to get rid of their bad luck..." Elon laughs.
After a pause, he added, "well, if you''re willing to change the name of boot Island, it''s definitely the glory of boot island."
Renordon was speechless, and Elon''s flattery was too shameless.
MMP, I have named several islands. Why do you regard labor and capital as madmen?
When they stayed in the captain''s room for discussion, the deck outside had become quite lively.
Because just now the sudden wave of the devil, in addition to causing a huge shock, also brought some special "gifts".
