Ice Season: Day 36 at Sea 1
#Ice Season is tough to survive, no food, no treasure chest, how can we survive#
: "Since there is no treasure chest, my food is quickly eaten up. I thought of many ways, and finally one method is feasible.
The ice surface is frozen, I used tools to punch holes in the ice, and it took me half a day to finally punch a hole. With this hole, I can fish on the ice.
But it is very difficult. Starting from yesterday, until this afternoon, I finally caught a cod.
Although there is only one, this fish is enough for me to eat for three days.
Players who have the conditions can try it, and they must save food. There are too few ways to get food now.
Of course, This hole also gave me hope of fishing for treasure chests again.
Since I can fish, can I fish for treasure chests if I make the hole bigger?
I will expand the hole tomorrow, so you can wait for my good news.
I will not delete this post, I will keep updating it, and you can also speak up and share your own survival methods. We three districts should unite and cooperate. "
The comments below the post are all praising Gu Fang.
It must be said that Gu Fang is indeed a great survival player. In the real world, he must be a helpful person.
Yun Mianmian also got useful information from his post.
It is indeed possible to dig a hole to fish for treasure chests.
She has an electric drill and a generator. As long as the tools are made, it is not difficult to dig a big hole on the sea surface.
The sea surface has only been frozen for a few days, unlike the ice on the island which has existed for hundreds or thousands of years.
Having made up her mind, Yun Mianmian decided to get up early tomorrow morning and try it out before landing on the island.
-The
next day, the temperature dropped to minus 25 degrees Celsius, and this was without wind. The players could only hide in the cabin and make a fire to keep warm. Once they walked out of the cabin, they had to wear very serious cold-proof clothing. Ordinary clothes could not maintain body temperature at all.
Yun Mianmian always slept with a hot water bottle in her arms, and she also covered herself with two layers of down quilts and cotton blankets. She had to put on the polar suit as soon as she got up, otherwise it would be cold in the room.
When she walked out of the room, the biting cold wind blew on her face, making her face numb.
There was no sea surface now, it was all ice.
She remembered her plan last night, and as soon as she came out, she prepared her tools and went to the sea to drill holes.
But before that, she rolled a dice.
Yesterday's good luck did not continue.
Today, thank you for your patronage, the god of luck has taken a rest.
Yun Mianmian's mentality has been adjusted very well. Even if her luck is average, she will not be depressed. She still musters up her energy and walks to the ice.
She tried it with an electric drill first. It took her about ten minutes to drill a small hole.
She continued to try and made a circle of small holes on the ice. These small holes connected together formed a circle. She then used a chisel to break the connected ice, and the ice fell into the sea, and a small ice hole appeared on the sea.
But this was not big enough, so Yun Mianmian continued to expand the ice surface with an electric drill.
After about an hour of hard work,
it was already eight o'clock.
The wind on the sea was getting stronger and stronger. Yun Mianmian drilled a hole on the side to put the device to fix the fishing rod, and finally took out the fishing rod and put it on.
The fishing rod was placed here, and when she came back, there might be a treasure chest on it.
Yun Mianmian didn't know if this method was feasible, but she had to land on the island immediately. Although she got up half an hour earlier, she had already spent more than an hour here.
She went back to the boat to get her things, called Octopus Sister, and boarded the Ice Crystal Island again.
There were strong winds on the Ice Crystal Island today, and it was more difficult for Yun Mianmian to walk to the glacier.
Fortunately, she brought an extra trekking pole today, which allowed her to stabilize her body and not fall.
However, the road was still difficult to walk on. To walk on the ice, she might need a pair of suitable shoes with better grip.
An hour later, Yun Mianmian realized that she seemed to have come to the other side of the Ice Crystal Island. The environment here was different from what she saw yesterday.
She didn't know if she had lost her way in the strong wind, so she didn't take the same road as yesterday, but deviated.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she finds the ice crack.
Yun Mianmian moved forward towards the glacier not far away.
Suddenly, Yun Mianmian seemed to hear a very penetrating cry. She immediately stopped and looked around, but didn't see anything.
Yun Mianmian was a little confused. What was the sound?
She became more careful.
The sound didn't sound like a human, but she was not sure. It seemed to be a hoarse, long-toned "ah..."
Is it an animal?
The most common animals on the Antarctic continent are penguins, and Yun Mianmian guessed that it might be a penguin.
Yun Mianmian wanted to follow the sound, but she couldn't tell the direction in the wind, and it only called once and then stopped.
She hesitated for a moment, and had to continue walking towards the glacier.
Finally, Yun Mianmian arrived at the glacier closest to her after fifteen minutes.
The color of this glacier is dark blue.
The glaciers here will not melt for hundreds or thousands of years.
Most of the ice blocks are crystal clear light blue, and only a small amount will appear dark blue.
Yun Mianmian found it strange, and when she got closer, she found that the glacier was breathtakingly beautiful.
But she didn't have that much time to appreciate the beauty of nature, but was committed to finding new ice cracks.
Finally, Yunmianmian passed the glacier and found an irregular ice crack half a meter wide at the back.
The widest part of this ice crack is half a meter, and the narrowest part is only a dozen centimeters.
Yunmianmian can only go down after walking to the wide part.
Just like yesterday, she needs Octopus Sister's help.
The two of them already had enough tacit understanding. Today, Yun Mianmian was not as dizzy as yesterday when they went down the ice crack. She hugged Octopus Girl's tentacles tightly, pressed her body against it, closed her eyes, and waited for her feet to touch the ground.
After swinging down for about ten minutes, Octopus Girl gently put Yun Mianmian down.
"We're here." Octopus Girl's voice echoed in the ice cave.
Listening to the echo, Yun Mianmian felt that this ice cave seemed to be bigger than the one yesterday, and the time it took to fall was longer. This ice cave was at least more than two thousand meters.
She didn't open her eyes to look just now, so her estimate might not be accurate, maybe it was deeper.
Yun Mianmian put on a safety helmet and looked around.
This ice cave is different from the previous two. It is not cold at all, and it is even a little hot.
She touched her forehead and she was not hot.
That means that the temperature here is very high and she is wearing too much.
Yun Mianmian opened her coat and found it very comfortable. It seems that this is another world under the Antarctic ice.
Listening carefully, Yun Mianmian seemed to hear the sound of water.
She decided to walk in the direction of the sound of water.
Some players said that there are a lot of lakes with fresh water under the glacier, which seems to be true. Then there may really be many ancient creatures living here, even fish that humans have never seen.
After all, the Antarctic continent is too mysterious.
Scientists have long said that there are many unknown biological populations hidden in the depths of Antarctica.
Yun Mianmian was a little nervous and a little expectant. Maybe she will discover something today.
The reason for being nervous is that the unknown may often be dangerous.
But danger may also be accompanied by opportunities.
Yun Mianmian still planned to go in.
She believed in her luck.
After walking for more than ten minutes, the sound of flowing water became louder and louder.
Yun Mianmian's feet also became wet. It was no longer just ice, but there was water flowing.
And she also saw moss and algae.
Although it is deep underground, the air here is still very fresh, and there is no feeling of lack of oxygen.
Yesterday in the other two ice caves, Yun Mianmian stayed for a long time and felt a little stuffy.
As she walked, Yun Mianmian suddenly saw a huge strange insect on the ice wall. It looked very scary, but it was lying on the ice wall motionless. Yun Mianmian looked carefully and didn't recognize it at all.
After learning advanced gathering and reading books about marine fish, there are almost no marine animals that Yun Mianmian doesn't know, but this thing is still very unfamiliar to her.
Yun Mianmian decided not to touch it.
It might be poisonous.
It's better not to take risks.
She avoided the bug and continued to walk inside, and finally saw glowing icicles and a huge lake.
The icicles were on both sides of the lake. There were fewer icicles on the side where Yun Mianmian was, and there were countless icicles on the other side.
But this lake was so huge that Yun Mianmian had no way to get through.
She had wood in her backpack, but she didn't have enough tools to build a raft to cross the lake, and... she wasn't sure if there were any large creatures in the lake. If there were, crossing the lake on a raft would be tantamount to seeking death.
Yun Mianmian quickly gave up the idea of crossing the lake.
One must not be too greedy.
Life is more important, so Yun Mianmian decided to only collect the ice marrow here.
She took out her tools and chipped away at all the icicles she could collect.
The sound of chipping icicles was loud and echoed. After a few chips, Yun Mianmian heard movement in the lake.
She quickly stopped, her face turned pale, and she became alert.
She stared at the lake for a long time, and finally, a dolphin-like thing floated up, showing its head and looking at her from a distance.
It was a pure white dolphin, very beautiful, with a little ice blue on its head, and the body lines were the same as those of ordinary dolphins. The reason why it was said to be very much like a dolphin was because its nose and head snout were very long.
No other species of dolphins look like this.
Yun Mianmian stared at it for a while, and it seemed to be very curious about Yun Mianmian, an alien creature, and stared at Yun Mianmian for a long time.
Yun Mianmian had the Sea Language Pearl on her body, and she wanted to communicate with it, but it dived into the water and left.
She hesitated for a moment and decided to continue collecting ice marrow.
It was too strange in here, and she didn't know if there would be other creatures, so she should quickly take all the ice marrow away.
Yun Mianmian roughly counted and found that there were forty or fifty icicles here alone.
Yun Mianmian gave Octopus Girl a few tools and asked her to go to the corner to collect ore.
She had already discovered that there were some ores on both sides of the lake, which reflected a special luster under the light of the icicles.
Octopus Girl moved quickly and soon dug up all the ore that could be collected. Yun Mianmian walked over and picked it up with one click.
It was still early, but if they couldn't cross the lake, these were all the things that could be collected here.
Octopus Girl seemed to be very curious about the lake and stretched out her tentacles into the lake.
Yun Mianmian: "Do you want to go down?"
Octopus: "I don't know, I feel there are a lot of fish here."
Octopus's sense of smell is very sensitive, and she just used her tentacles to sense that there are a lot of creatures in this lake, and the water is not cold, it's very comfortable.
But whether there is danger in it, we have to go down and take a look.
Yun Mianmian: "Or we should not go in, what if there is something."
Octopus: "I'll use my tentacles to take a look."
Its tentacles went deep into the lake.
"A lot of fish."
There are no eyes on the tentacles, but it can sense a lot of fish.
Yun Mianmian is also curious about what is going on in this lake, but she doesn't dare to go down.
The biological species in Antarctica are too complex. In this extreme environment, there has been no change for thousands or tens of thousands of years, and many species are different from what she imagined.
Octopus Girl's tentacles played in the lake for a while, and she looked very happy at first, but suddenly she quickly pulled them back. She seemed to be frightened, and her tentacles almost got tangled together.
Yun Mianmian: "What's wrong?"
Octopus Girl said in a panic: "There is something dangerous."
She felt a huge creature approaching, so she quickly retracted her tentacles.
Yun Mianmian stared at the lake and stepped back a few steps.
The clear lake water was dark blue, and you could see a huge creature slowly floating up from the bottom of the lake. You
couldn't see what it was, but it was very big, about seven or eight meters long. Yun Mianmian stepped back little by little, grabbed Octopus Girl's tentacles, and slowly put it into the pet bag, ready to run away immediately if anything went wrong.
As long as this thing is in the water, it should be fine. I'm just afraid that it is amphibious.
Fortunately, the thing did not float up, but slowly sank again.
Yun Mianmian hesitated for a few seconds, and decided to leave.
She didn't want to know what was in this lake.
-On
the way back, Yun Mianmian found two more kinds of ores. The quantity was not large, and they were quickly collected. Coming
out of the ice crack, Yun Mianmian's mood was quite complicated. There must be a different world under this ice crack. Logically, there must be a lot of resources, but she couldn't get them.
If she could go down to the lake, or go to the other side of the lake...
forget it, don't think about it. There are so many things, and not everything can be obtained.
Where there is loss, there is gain.
It is more practical to seize the time to find the next ice crack.
At this moment, she heard the cry of "Ah..." again.
This time there was no wind, and Yun Mianmian heard where the sound came from.
Yun Mianmian decided to go over and take a look.
