Chapter 367 Fish?
But Captain Wang was still reluctant to abandon this wrecked ship here. "Is there no other way?"
Captain Zhang said, "It's all the same, actually. Some of the higher sections of the road have already run out of water. Once we get there, we'll still have to abandon the boats halfway. It's just a matter of whether we abandon them early or late."
Captain Wang said, "Then we can just throw it away when the time comes. Ships are all autonomous anyway, so we can just let this one follow us. We might even be able to use it to block some attacks."
Captain Zhang thought about it for a while, then decided it was feasible and replied, "Alright, that's the decision."
The three ships sailed forward for a while, and finally they saw the gate of the former R City base.
At this time, there were still eight crew members from the R City base on the three ships. They first witnessed the devastation of the base, then, after calming down, said, "You're right, the water level has dropped quite a bit."
"Yeah, it was almost flooded to the door before, but now so much ground is exposed."
Captain Wang said, "Don't you see how high the temperature is now?"
Before Maolin, the temperature measured by the thermometer was around 70 degrees, but during this period the temperature has reached around 75 degrees.
Don't underestimate the difference of only 5 degrees. You have to know that this is a high temperature. One degree more can directly kill people with heat, not to mention such high temperatures that continue day and night. It is really impossible to stand outside without wearing heat-insulating clothing. The scorching sun above your head can easily sunburn you.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's get to the base and stop the ship first."
After rowing unsteadily for a while, the three boats finally stopped on the ground not far from the H City base.
And the ice cubes that have been floating in the water——
Since the high temperature had already heated up the water, the large ice blocks floating in the water melted a lot soon. In order to prevent the object that hit the ship from escaping, Ling Jiang continued to add ice, trying to make it melt only after it reached the ground.
Now they finally reached the ground. As soon as everyone got off the boat, Captain Zhang immediately ordered everyone to drag the big piece of ice out of the water.
This is where some real effort is put in.
No matter how strong you are, the ice that freezes those things cannot be made smaller.
After pulling this large piece of ice to the surface of the water, it is not actually over. If you don’t pull it away from the water, what will happen if the ice melts and bounces back into the water?
So it took quite some effort, and they didn't stop until they had dragged the large piece of ice a long distance away from the water.
…
Looking at the large block of ice in front of him, Ling Jiang said, "Are we supposed to wait for it to melt? Lao Gao, just burn it."
Lao Gao loved doing these things the most. As soon as Ling Jiang gave the order, he didn't care about anything else and started working.
The oversized piece of ice quickly melted into water under Lao Gao's special ability, and the thing that was frozen finally revealed its true appearance.
The thing in front of me is actually a fish, but the strange thing is that it has a fish-shaped body, but it has two arms and a pair of legs growing out separately. It looks a bit weird at first glance.
Lan Jin took one look and immediately frowned, then said, "What I'm saying is, this isn't a mermaid, right?"
Huang Jinghe immediately said, "That's definitely not the case. How could a mermaid look like this? Haven't you seen the movie? It's absolutely impossible. Absolutely."
Huang Jinghe's voice grew louder and louder, his tone firm in that he felt the fish in front of him was definitely not a mermaid.
But not only Huang Jinghe, but also everyone present couldn't mistake this fish for a mermaid.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Captain Zhang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said to Lao Gao, "Lao Gao, keep burning until all the ice melts."
During the burning process, Zhou Zhi also said, "If there really are mermaids in this world, they will definitely not be frozen to death by this kind of ice. Mermaids have very strong vitality."
So,
It's right that it isn't.
…
After burning for a while, Lao Gao finally melted all the ice, and there were far more than three fish that came out of the ice.
"That's not right. Not to mention that these fish shouldn't live in freshwater, there are these two poofs. How could a fish like this possibly have poofs?"
After saying that, Captain Zhang was puzzled for a while, then he made a satellite call to his superiors.
The people above were not so clear about the situation in the water, and even expressed strong doubts about the fish with "pu" that Captain Zhang mentioned.
"How could a good fish have grown a pair of poofs?"
Captain Zhang said firmly, "It's true. I'll send some photos back via satellite in a moment, and you'll see when you see them."
After a long silence, the other party replied, "Okay."
…
After hanging up the phone, Captain Zhang froze in his tracks, as if remembering something. He looked at the team members standing around the fish, studying them, and said, "Hey, the water should be fine, right?"
It’s really not Captain Zhang’s fault. It’s mainly because we have experienced too many strange things during this period of time, and everything seems suspicious to us.
But when it comes to water, Lan Jin has to say: "Of course there's no problem. We all come into contact with water."
It was the time when Lan Jin electrocuted the underwater creatures. Didn't they accidentally use a strong electric shock and splash water all over them? And it's been so long now. Even if there were problems, they would have been stuck in the water. So it's too late to talk about it now.
But in fact, doesn’t it just prove that the water should be fine?
After hearing Lan Jin's words, Captain Zhang nodded immediately and said, "Oh, oh, okay then, fine, as long as it's not a water problem."
…
"So what should we do now?" asked one of the team members.
Captain Zhang took out a set of satellite tools, took some photos of the fish, and sent them to the other side.
Captain Zhang put away his tools and said to his team members, "Wait a minute, we're trying to catch something that hit the boat. The boat has capsized. Will this little gadget work?"
Even though it has a pair of puffs, the total length of this fish is only about 3 meters, not more than that——
So how could a fish that was only 3 meters long cause the boat to capsize?
Ling Jiang said, "I was already very fast at the time. If it wasn't these things, then it would have been that big fish. But compared to that, I actually prefer this one, because if that big fish wanted to hit the ship, it would not only capsize it, but also flip it completely."
Captain Zhang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Forget it. Why bother to get to the bottom of this? This isn't the only thing we don't know the answer to."
