NovelUpdateChapter 0769 Just when Suzy thought she could make a clean escape, a massive wave crashed against the ship, causing the enormous vessel to rock violently.
Carrying Diana on her back, Suzy nearly lost her footing.
The group of fighting men fared worse, with several of them tumbling to the deck.
As they scrambled to steady themselves, panic spread among them, their faces pale as they watched another towering wave surging toward the ship.
"What do we do? I didn't believe the forecast when it mentioned a typhoon. Who expects one in the middle of winter? But now... it's real. We're not getting out of this alive!" "That last wave was the smallest one, and we barely survived. If a few more hit, we're all going down!" Suzy suddenly realized why the woman had chosen this location. It wasn't just about the isolation. It was a trap from the start.
Even if Suzy defeated everyone, escaping the merciless forces of nature was another matter entirely. Against a storm this fierce, humans were utterly insignificant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe staged gwith the fake Dianas now made sense too-it had been nothing more than a ploy to delay her, to ensure she had no chance of leaving alive.
Looking back at the unconscious Diana on her back, Suzy clenched her fists tightly. "Diana, no matter what happens, I won't let anything happen to you!" Even if it cost her her life, she would ensure Diana survived.
To prevent Diana from slipping off during the chaos of the storm, Suzy used her coat to securely bind her to her back. Then, she made her way to the ship's control room.
Inside, a slightly overweight middle-aged man was at the helm. But as another wave slammed into the ship, he was thrown from his seat, landing hard on the floor.
The second wave was even larger than the first, leaving no chance for evasion.
Suzy barely avoided falling herself, gripping a nearby pillar for support. Once the storm eased for a brief moment, she moved to the captain's chair and took control of the ship.
From the floor, the man shouted at her in panic. "Don't mess with that! There could be massive reefs ahead!" "Instead of shouting useless warnings, why don't you check the map and givea direction?" Suzy's voice was cold and steady as her eyes remained fixed on the horizon.
While she had never piloted a ship this large, she wasn't entirely inexperienced with steering boats.
During her years of carrying out missions, Suzy had faced all kinds of extrsituations-this wasn't the first time.
She remembered one mission in particular that had felt eerily similar to this. The only difference was that back then, Diana wasn't with her, so she hadn't cared much about her own survival.
When it was just her, even if the ship capsized, she'd had a better chance of escaping on her own.
The middle-aged man, noticing how deftly Suzy handled the controls, finally stopped his panicked protests.
Instead, he picked up the map, focusing on giving her directions as she'd instructed.
The storm worsened, the wind howling louder, and the waves growing more ferocious by the minute.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSteering the ship becan uphill battle.
Just as Suzy managed to turn the vessel in the right direction, another massive wave crashed against the bow, undoing all her efforts in an instant.
"This isn't working! We're not going to make it!" The man's voice cracked with panic.
"We can't fight against nature. This is the end for us!" "Shut up!" Suzy snapped, her patience wearing thin.
"Say one more useless word, and I'll send you to meet your maker myself!"
The man clamped his mouth shut, though his face remained etched with despair. His eyes were locked on the monstrous wave approaching them, closer and closer.
The wave loomed over them, impossibly large, a fores of naturel that seemed destined to swallow the ship whole.
If this wave hit, there was no question-the ship would capsize, land everyone aboard would be consumed by the sea. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
