I have a bunch of players on Earth

672 Chapter 701: Surrender!

It was already the third day…

Lei Xue stayed in her room. She used a pen and ink to record the events of the past two days after entering the ice domain. Her room was still as beautiful as before, however, upon closer inspection, she discovered that the originally vibrant wood grain actually had a hint of decay.

According to the technical requirements, the wood on this ship was a high-grade biological wood. Furthermore, it had undergone a special process. Even if it was soaked in water for thirty years, there wouldn’t be any signs of decay. However, just a few days after entering the ice domain.., many things on the ship were undergoing an inexplicable change.

Lei Xue exhaled and continued writing with her frozen hands: on the third day after entering the ice zone, because there were floating ice blocks on the surface of the sea at all times, the need to break through the ice at all times caused the speed of the ship to greatly reduce, in three days, the entire ship had traveled less than a hundred nautical miles, but there were still no signs of leaving the ice zone.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and it was an irresistible cold. The heating equipment on the ship was like a decoration, and the thick cotton-padded clothes on the body could not resist it. Even the food was so hot that when it entered the mouth, it was like ice shards, there was no longer the delicious enjoyment from before!

Moreover, the food on the ship was rotting at a rapid speed, especially the canned meat that had been sealed. The corrosion was extremely fast. According to candy, the canned meat used a high-quality vacuum technology, it had a shelf life of at least three years, and the freshness of the meat would be guaranteed to a certain extent.

However, this did not seem to be the case. It was unknown whether it was a problem with the sealing technology of the canned meat or the environment here, because according to the chef’s report, when the canned meat was opened, there was only half of it left, it was pitch black and reeked of rot, and it felt as if it had been eaten!

Morsenkin and I carefully examined these cans and found that there were no traces of them being opened, but there were indeed signs of them being eaten. This result was very unsettling, because even microbes shouldn’t be able to enter this sealed can. Could it be that there was something wrong with the seal?

Just as we wrote this, there was a light knock on the door…

“Sir Engineer, the captain wants you to gather for a meeting!”

Lei Xue stopped writing when she heard that. She carefully put the diary into her pocket and slowly walked out.

As soon as the door opened, she smelled a faint musty smell. Until now, she had not found the source of this smell. It had been spreading on the ship since they entered the ice domain less than three hours ago, and she did not know why.., the entire ship gave people a gloomy feeling!

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 crew members were sitting around a bonfire, at this time, everyone was using the most primitive method to keep warm.

However, this was the most useful method in the current experiment. Pure fire was the only thing that could bring warmth to people in this strange ice zone.

Therefore, a lot of unused wood on the ship was burned. The good news was that the wood was of high quality and could withstand burning. A small piece of wood could often burn for half a day… …

“Lei Xue, come, come, sit here!”Li Goudan saw Lei Xue coming and quickly waved his hand.

Lei Xue did not waste time and quickly walked over. When she sat beside the fire, a long-lost warmth was felt. It was so comfortable that people almost moaned.

“Let’s get down to business…”Li Goudan rubbed his hands and said, “Today is already the third day. There is no hope for us to walk forward. This captain is considering whether or not we should turn back and leave this icy domain!”

Everyone’s spirits were lifted when they heard that!

After three days, this captain finally said something useful. She finally F * cking admitted defeat!

“Sir Captain, I feel that it is necessary!”The second mate was the first to speak in agreement. The surrounding people hurriedly nodded. It was obvious that they would go crazy if they stayed in this damned day.

Lei Xue also nodded slightly. The current situation was getting more and more strange. It was indeed not a wise choice to continue forward…

It was the first mate, Wang Ye, who said, “The food on the ship has already rotted by more than half. If we take a detour now, will we be able to reach our destination?”

Lei Xue: “The food on the ship has rotted for unknown reasons, but the fresh biological circulation system has not suffered any losses…”

Wang Ye: “But that shouldn’t be enough for the hundreds of people on the ship, right?”

“It can be fished…”. Lei Xue continued, “The ship has an advanced fishing system, and there are even conditions for hunting large-scale sea whales. As long as we leave this ice region, we can still rely on the fishing system to hunt sea creatures to meet our food needs. As for the lack of fruit, we can use the indoor greenhouse to grow high-grade sour fruits “…”. “…”

“Are there no sea creatures in this ice region?”Wang ye asked curiously.

“Currently, there seems to be none…”. “…”. “…”Lei Xue’s expression was solemn as she shook her head. “After discovering that a large amount of food had rotted, I activated the underwater detector to search for a new source of food. However, the strange thing is that there are no signs of life in this area of the sea. After traveling for two days, there are still no signs of life. It’s just like the Dead Sea!”

Hearing this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Li Goudan slightly shrank his head. It was obvious that he regretted leading the team in on a spur of the moment.

Wang ye frowned and finally sighed. “In that case, I also support the retreat…”

He originally wanted to protect the captain’s dignity. Although entering the ice domain seemed to be a wrong decision, he had already come this far. If there was a chance to persevere, he still hoped to persevere for a wave. After all, easily going back on his previous decision was very disadvantageous to the captain’s position… …

“In that case, turn around and return!”Li Goudan finally decided!

Seeing this decision, everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief…

They were afraid that this captain would be bent on doing things his own way now…

After the decision was made, everyone hurriedly stood up and prepared to inform the crew. Although they were somewhat reluctant to part with the warmth of the bonfire, this news was clearly even more heartening…

Seeing that everyone was finally relieved, Li Goudan felt a little disappointed, seeing this, Wang Ye walked in and comforted him, “It’s your first time. It’s normal to make some mistakes. Outstanding people grow up from failure.”

“Your chicken soup isn’t tasty at all…”Li Goudan curled his lips and said.

Wang ye chuckled and said embarrassedly, “I’m from the Special Forces. This… my cultural level is limited… Hahaha…”

Li Goudan looked at his embarrassed look and couldn’t help but laugh. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps from outside. Li Goudan immediately frowned and a bad feeling flashed through his heart.

“Captain! !”The person who came was second officer Wilson. He ran over in a hurry and shouted before he reached the meeting room, “There’s a problem at the rear!”

“What’s the situation?”Wang ye floated over. Although he looked like a ball, his years of experience as a special forces captain made his tone full of boldness.

“Rear… rear…”Wilson took a breath and stuttered, “It’s Frozen!”

“Huh?”Li Goudan suddenly stood up and rushed toward the deck.
