Chapter 701: Admit counsel!
It's the third day...
Lei Xue lived in the room, recording the past two days after entering the ice domain with her pen and ink. The room was still as beautiful as before, but if you look closely, you will find that there was a trace of decay on the originally vibrant wood grain.
According to technical conditions, the wood on the ship is a high-grade biological wood. After special processes, even if it is soaked in water for 30 years, it will not show signs of decay. However, just a few days after entering the ice domain, many things on the ship are undergoing an inexplicable change.
Lei Xue sighed and continued to write with her frozen hands: On the third day of entering the ice domain, since there were floating ice cubes on the sea surface at any time, the ice was needed to break at any time, causing the ship's advance speed to drop significantly. In three days, the entire ship's advance range was less than 100 nautical miles, but there was still no sign of leaving the ice domain.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and it is an irresistible cold. The heating equipment on the boat is like decorations, the thick cotton coat on the body cannot resist, and even the food is also the same. The hot food enters the mouth like ice slag, and there is no longer the delicious enjoyment that was before!
Moreover, the food on the boat is rotting at a rapid speed, especially those sealed canned meat, which corrodes very quickly. According to Tangdou, this canned food uses a high-quality vacuum technology, with a shelf life of at least three years, and the freshness of the meat will be guaranteed to a certain extent.
But this statement does not seem to be realized. I don’t know if it is a problem with the can sealing technology or the environment here, because according to the chef’s report: only half of the cans are left after being opened, and they are pitch black and exudes a rotten stench. It also makes people feel like they have been eaten by something!
Morsonkin and I carefully inspected the cans and found that there were no signs of being opened, but there were indeed signs of being eaten. This result was very unsettling, because even microorganisms should not be able to enter the sealed can. Could it be that there was something wrong with the sealing?
Just as I finished writing this, there was a slight knock on the door outside...
"Master of the wheel, the captain lets you gather for a meeting!"
Lei Xue stopped slightly when she heard this. She carefully put the diary in her pocket and walked out slowly.
As soon as the door was opened, she smelled a faint musty smell. The smell has not found its source. It has been spreading on the ship less than three hours after entering the ice domain. For some reason, the entire ship gives people a feeling of dullness!
After walking out of the room, she followed the crew member and soon arrived at the conference room. The table in the middle of the conference room had been demolished, and more than a dozen senior personnel on the ship sat around a fire. At this time, everyone was actually using the most primitive way to keep warm.
But this is the most useful way in today's experiments. Pure flames are the only thing that can bring warmth to people in this weird ice domain.
So many unnecessary woods on the boat were burned. The good news is that due to their extremely high quality, these woods can withstand burning, and a small piece can often be burned for most of the day...
"Lei Xue, come on, come on, sit here!" Li Goudan quickly waved when he saw Lei Xue coming.
Lei Xue didn't say anything anymore, and walked over quickly. After reaching the fire, a long-lost warmth came, so comfortable that it almost made people moan.
"Tell me the serious business..." Li Goudan rubbed his hands and said, "It's the third day today, and there is no hope to go forward. The captain is considering whether to go back and exit this ice domain!!"
Everyone was excited when they heard this!
Three days later, the captain finally said something useful, and she finally gave in!
"Sir Captain, I think it's very necessary!" The second deputy was the first to speak up and said in agreement. The people around him nodded quickly. It was obvious that they were going crazy in such a ghost life.
Lei Xue also nodded slightly. The situation is getting weirder now, and it is indeed an unwise choice to continue moving forward...
However, the first mate Wang Ye said, "Most of the food on the boat has rotted. Can you persist in reaching the destination if you retreat at this time?"
Lei Xue: "The food stored on the ship was rotten for unknown reasons, but the fresh biological circulation system was not lost..."
Wang Ye: "But that shouldn't be enough for hundreds of people on the boat to eat, right?"
"You can fish..." Lei Xue continued: "There are advanced fishing systems on the ship, and even conditions for hunting large sea whales. As long as you leave this ice field, relying on the fishing system to hunt sea creatures can still meet the food needs. As for the lack of fruits, indoor greenhouses can be used to grow and grow advanced sour fruits..."
"Is there no sea creatures in this ice field?" Wang Ye asked curiously.
"It seems that there is no..." Lei Xue shook her head solemnly: "After I found that the food was rotten a lot, I activated the undersea detector to find new food sources, but strangely, there was no sign of biological signs under this sea area. After walking for two days, there was still nothing, just like the Dead Sea!"
When everyone heard this, they felt a chill. Li Goudan shrank his head slightly, obviously regretting that he led the team in impulse.
Wang Ye frowned and finally sighed: "Since that's the case, I also support retreat..."
He originally wanted to maintain the dignity of the captain. Although entering the ice domain was a wrong decision, he had already reached this point. If he had the chance to persist, he still hoped to persist. After all, he would easily regret the previous decision, which would be very unfavorable to the captain's status...
"Then, let's turn around and return!!" Li Goudan finally made the decision!
Seeing that this resolution was released, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief...
They were afraid that the captain would do his own thing now...
After the resolution, everyone quickly stood up and prepared to communicate with the crew. Although they were reluctant to part with the warmth of the fire, the news was obviously even more exciting...
Seeing everyone's expression of finally being liberated, Li Goudan felt a little disappointed. Seeing this, Wang Ye walked in and comforted him: "It's the first time, it's normal for some wrong decisions. Excellent people are constantly growing up in failure."
"Your chicken soup is not delicious at all..." Li Goudan curled his lips.
Wang Ye smiled and said embarrassedly: "He was born in a special forces soldier. This... has limited cultural level...hahaha..."
Li Goudan couldn't help but smile when he looked at his embarrassed look. Just as he was about to talk about it, suddenly the rapid footsteps came from outside. Li Goudan suddenly frowned, and a bad premonition flashed in his heart.
"Sir Captain!!" The person who came was the second mate Wilson. He hurried over and shouted before he could reach the conference room: "There is a problem behind!"
"What's the situation?" Wang Ye floated over. Although he looked like a ball, his tone was full of courage as his years of experience as a special captain.
"Back...back..." Wilson stuttered after gasping for breath: "Frozen!"
