Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 68 Rescue
Clear Sky fell into the sea in a diving posture, and Luke immediately logged out of the game.
The Clover armed airship had already landed in the airspace less than 200 meters away. Looking up, the nearly 200-meter-long hull seemed very oppressive. There were countless cuts on the top of the airship spewing steam out, and the white steam drew a parabolic strip cloud in the air.
Luke stood on the bridge of the Luck Princess and looked through a telescope at the sea where the Shamrock had just dropped heavy objects. He could see some objects floating on the water.
Shelley at the side reported very diligently: "Inspector! The main parabolic area of the Shamrock is about 1.5 nautical miles away from us, more than 400 meters long, and the airship was at an altitude of 800 to 700 meters above sea level at the time.
The chest containing gold should break when it falls into the water, and it may take a while for the naga to collect it. "
Luke looked at the big hole in the bottom hold of the Shamrock armed airship again. It was indeed where the gold was stored.
"The parabolic area is so far from here, let the Nagas collect it slowly. Try to find all the gold bricks. It's not easy for us to come out here."
"Yes, Inspector."
Shelley blew a rhythmic whistle to the flag bearer on the mast lookout, and the flag bearer immediately issued a set of flag signals.
"This sea area is safe, please feel free to land. Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be safe!"
Repeat five times.
The Shamrock sent out a signal to express its gratitude to the Lucky Princess.
Lady Tashia, who had led the Naga to the parabolic zone, floated on the water with only her head exposed. She also saw the flag signals sent by the Lucky Princess through the telescope.
At this time, a Naga floated up and shouted excitedly: "Queen, we found gold, a lot! But the boxes containing the gold are all broken..."
Mrs. Tashia used her hand to push away a piece of wooden box debris that floated in front of her. There were many such fragments in this sea area.
"Use the bags we brought and distribute the weight each person carries. Look carefully, we have time!"
"Yes, Queen."
Naga turned over and dived underwater, while Lady Tasia floated on the surface and continued to observe the Clover and the Lucky Princess. At this time, another wooden box floated over, and she wanted to push it away, but after thinking about it, she pulled it back.
Hide behind the wooden box so you won't be discovered by the people on the airship.
The Nagas began underwater operations, and under the command of the Lucky Princess, the Shamrock successfully made an emergency landing at a height of ten meters from the sea surface. Steam was still leaking, and if the airship touched the seawater, the downward pressure of the hull would soon push the pod under the water surface.
The Luck Princess sent a small boat to follow behind the airship pod, while the Shamrock slowed down and pumped steam into the airbag at full power to slow the airship's descent.
After the airship's flying posture slowed down slightly, the passengers on the airship jumped out of the cabin one by one.
The rescue boat threw out a lifebuoy and sent out sailors with good swimming skills to rescue the people who fell into the water.
There were not many passengers and crew members on the airship. After the captain jumped off for the last time, everyone on the Shamrock armed airship was rescued.
The airship maintained its posture and flew forward for another 300 meters before it touched the sea surface. As expected, the gondola on the bottom layer of the airship was quickly pressed underwater by the huge and heavy hull.
This scene made all the passengers and crew members on the boat feel fortunate, and at the same time, they were filled with gratitude for the people who rescued them.
If this navy had not happened to be here, they would all have died.
But... why are these navy sailors dressed so casually? They are not navy uniforms at all! The ship approaching is not a navy warship either.
Congressman Ibel sat in the boat with the help of his entourage. He poured out the sea water in his hat, hesitated for a moment, and finally put it on his head.
Then he asked the sailor rowing beside him: "Who are you? You don't look like the Imperial Navy."
The sailor replied, "We are Imperial spies from the Cape Secret Service, and we are working with the Navy to hunt down pirates. We came here when we saw you asking for help."
"Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau?"
Councillor Ibel remembered the secret agency which had little presence in Raging Waves City.
"I heard that you have a new detective, a very capable senior detective, who took 80 million Reichsmarks of case funds from Senator Virgil a few days ago."
Talking about Inspector Meteorite, the spy was very proud.
"Yes, our inspector is a very capable man. He has changed the Cape District in just a few days.
Judging from your clothes, you must be an important person. Our inspector is on the Lucky Princess. If you want to express your gratitude , you can say it to him in person. "
Councillor Ibel was very surprised and asked: "Is your inspector on this ship?"
At this time, the boat docked to the side of the Lucky Princess and a soft ladder was thrown down from something.
The sailor held the ladder and invited Councillor Ibrahim: "Yes, our inspector is up there... Sir, please!"
Luke saw all the passengers and crew members on the Shamrock on the deck of the Princess Luck. They looked very miserable, their clothes were soaked, and a puddle of water quickly formed under their feet. The makeup on the women's faces was washed away terribly, and they were shivering from the cold.
But everyone's face was filled with joy at having escaped death.
"Hello, Councillor Ibel..." Luke saluted Councillor Ibel and said to the others, "Ladies and gentlemen, please follow my subordinates to the cabin to take a shower and change clothes. The boat is simple, please don't mind."
Luke motioned for Shelley to take the guests to the cabin.
Councillor Ibel tried his best to maintain his demeanor and returned the greeting to Luke: "Thank you for the rescue, Inspector Meteorite! This is not an accident, someone attacked us, please be careful with you and your people.
There are still empire taxes on the Shamrock, please salvage them."
"Someone attacked you? How is that possible! This is the ocean and you are in the sky."
Councillor Ibel was also bewildered. "I don't know what happened. Everything happened too suddenly and too quickly. The ship's mage should be able to answer your questions. I also want to know what happened."
Luke saw the four magicians who had fought with Qingkong. They were all wet and were following Shelly into the cabin.
“Your Excellency, my ship has taken control of this sea area, and the navy’s warships will arrive soon after destroying the pirates. You are safe on the Lucky Princess.
We will salvage the Shamrock airship now. With our imperial spies here, no one can steal the empire's taxes or harm you.
Go take a shower and change your clothes, I have many questions for you and others to answer."
"Thank you again, Inspector."
Congressman Ibel went to the cabin to take a shower and change clothes, while Luke commanded four merchant ships to approach the Shamrock which fell into the sea.
I don't know when the shelling in the distance stopped. The pirate ship must have sunk.
Perfect!
