Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

However, he heard Captain Shang listening to the maintenance personnel's report. The heating system was able to withstand the pressure for now because it had cut off the supply of heat to the entire mother ship from the beginning and only supplied heat to the rescue area!

In other words, the heating system wasn't broken; it was the temperature outside that dropped dramatically.

The halls and corridors of the rescue area were bustling with activity.

All naval and maintenance personnel were dispatched.

The first thing Captain Chen thought of was the current temperature in their three planting and breeding cellars.

Although they usually rely on burning coal to maintain the temperature of the cellar, in this emergency, the slightest negligence may cause the plants growing in the cellar to be damaged or even die.

However, Major Wei was in a dilemma: "Under such circumstances, we can only hope that the people in charge of planting can notice the temperature drop in time. Our people won't be able to get there in a short time."

The ice storm outside is at its most severe right now. If you go out, you might get hit on the head and bleed.

Captain Chen also knew this and sighed secretly: "Then we can only wait."

Another half an hour passed, probably because the heating department increased the amount of coal input, and the indoor temperature rose, but it only rose to zero degrees and then stagnated.

People put on their down jackets and sat there waiting.

Captain Shang also gave orders not to let people sleep, fearing that the temperature would suddenly drop by dozens of degrees like during the extreme cold period, and people would never wake up from their sleep.

After finally making it to the second half of the night, the temperature had dropped again and the indoor temperature was minus 13 degrees Celsius.

Even with heating on, you can still feel biting cold even if you are wearing a thick down jacket.

Zhou Shuwan's face was solemn, and white air came out of his mouth as soon as he opened it. "It seems that the temperature outside has dropped by at least 20 to 30 degrees."

The temperature had already dropped to more than 40 degrees below zero.

But now, is it already minus sixty or seventy degrees Celsius outside?

Or even lower?

Before the end of the world, the temperature at the North and South Poles was generally around minus 70 degrees Celsius. In rare cases, the temperature at the South Pole could reach an extreme minus 100 degrees Celsius.

However, that is only in extremely rare cases, and the low temperature is only limited to the polar regions.

If the temperature here also drops to minus seventy degrees Celsius, and the entire sea area is also that low, and the water on the seabed freezes into a thick layer of ice, then there is no need to think about going out to sea to fish.

The people in the rescue area were feeling very cold.

Fortunately, there were only a few hundred people on the mother ship. After much consideration, the two captains agreed to move two large iron stoves and burn coal in the central area of ​​the rescue area.

It is difficult to exhaust the smoke outside the mother ship, so the gas is directly discharged through the chimney to areas that are not currently used by people.

With two large iron stoves burning brightly, the temperature in the room gradually rose.

The temperature in the hall was also a little warmer than indoors, so the patients and their families who were originally crowded in the ward came out wrapped in thick down jackets.

Just sit on the ground outside, or on a small stool you brought from home, and spend the long night together.

Zhou Shuwan brought Mu Mu and Yu Xuan and helped the four blind soldiers outside, and wrapped the soldiers with the quilts on the beds.

Mu Mu gave each person a small stool.

Zhou Shuwan got two military coats from somewhere, and Mu Mu wrapped herself in one, while she and Yu Xuan shared one.

Captain Shang also gave orders to take out all the down jackets and quilts in the warehouse and give one to each person.

After finally making it to the next day, people couldn't help but fall asleep in a crooked manner.

Zhou Shuwan also dozed off for a while. When he woke up, he saw that Yuxuan, Mumu and the others were sleeping soundly, and the temperature did not seem to have dropped.

She felt slightly relieved. She saw people moving around in the hall and corridor. She stood up and went to the window to observe what was happening outside.

The ice particles were still hitting the glass and the cabin surface like bullets. The sound was actually very loud and deafening, but after staying in such an environment for a whole night, she didn't even feel the deafening feeling at this time.

Zhou Shuwan looked outside through the night vision goggles. In the pitch-black night, countless white ice particles poured down like a rainstorm. Everywhere he looked, it was white, as if the whole world was swallowed up by this ice particle storm.

She squinted her eyes slightly, trying to see the situation farther away through the dense ice particles, but found that her vision could not penetrate the blurry white.

She was a little worried about her family in the underground base, and a sense of uneasiness rose in her heart.

Although after practice, there is no threat from the ocean now, the biggest disaster they face is the super ice particle storm on the ground, and the underground base is much safer and warmer than the mothership.

But the temperature outside is extremely low now, and no one can guarantee whether the underground base can hold up.

By nine o'clock in the morning, food was distributed to everyone on the mother ship.

The fish soup was cooked in two large iron stoves in the hall, and then the bowls and chopsticks from the restaurant were brought over, and each person was given a bowl of fish soup.

The fish soup was sparse, with only three or four thin slices of fish meat and a small handful of shredded mushrooms. Of course, eating only these would not make you full.

However, people have always been short of food and clothing, and their appetites have become very small. In such a cold day, being able to drink a bowl of hot fish soup is already a very good treatment.

There were many people around, so Zhou Shuwan didn't order any special food. Instead, he and Mu Mu drank the whole bowl of fish soup.

The taste is light, not too fishy, ​​which is pretty good.

After dinner, Zhou Shuwan couldn't help but walk to the window and look outside. In the still dark night sky, countless ice particle storms were hitting this side.

She looked into the distance.

Mu Mu knew that she was worried about her family who stayed in the underground base, so she couldn't help but come over and stand shoulder to shoulder with her: "Sister, don't worry too much, the underground base is safer than here."

Zhou Shuwan smiled at him and said, "Although I know this, I still can't help but worry. You know about the passage being blocked last time, so I'm sure they'll be prepared this time."

The most effective yet dumbest way to prevent the passage from being blocked is for people to take turns guarding the passage and start removing ice immediately if there are signs of ice.

But with such a large ice pellet storm now, it won't take too long for a thick layer of ice to form.

So, they have to work a lot of shifts to barely supply the needs.

Not to mention the dangers involved.

Only Zhou Jianghai and Qi Mingyu from the Zhou family will be selected to be the duty officer.

Zhou Shuwan was worried that his father, who was old and in poor health, might not be able to handle the impact, or even worse, might be injured by the ice particles.

The second reason was that I was worried that Qi Mingyu's eyes had just started to heal, and I wondered if he would get injured again...
