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

Another seven or eight days passed, and they had been traveling on the endless ice field for almost a month.

The ship glided slowly across the ice field. It was pitch black all around, with only the searchlight on the bow casting a faint light on the ice.

There was an indescribable feeling of oppression in the air, as if the whole world was swallowed up by endless darkness.

The crew members' expressions gradually became numb. The long voyage and loneliness made them fall into a state of mental exhaustion.

Major Wei also quickly noticed the crew's mental fatigue.

The first to collapse was the youngest among them, a maintenance worker, who was just nineteen years old.

They are children who grew up after the end of the world.

However, I have never had such a long journey in an ice field like Antarctica.

Sailing on the ocean is different from sailing on the endless ice field, which makes people feel lonely and fearful.

So, as the fishing boat was slowly gliding across the ice, many crew members sat in the cabin with numb expressions.

Suddenly, he lowered his head, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he let out a low sob.

Although they quickly contained themselves, everyone in the cabin was a military man, so they naturally heard it.

Major Wei was checking the situation in the cabin and immediately realized that he might not be able to bear this long period of loneliness.

"Xiao Chen, go and enlighten him." Major Wei whispered to an old soldier next to him.

The veteran nodded, walked over to the maintenance worker, and gently patted him on the shoulder: "What's wrong? Are you worried?"

He raised his head, his eyes red, his voice choked, and shook his head: "No, I just... I just want to go back to the island..."

Although the island is small, it is the only reliable home in the hearts of these people!

The veteran was silent for a moment, sighed, and patted him on the shoulder: "It's the same for everyone. Hang in there. Once this mission is completed, we can go back."

The maintenance worker nodded and forced a smile, but his eyes were still dim.

Major Wei felt a little heavy in his heart as he watched this scene.

He knew that this long period of loneliness and darkness was a huge test for everyone.

He turned his head and glanced at the other people in the cabin, finally stopping on Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu.

Zhou Shuwan was sitting in the corner, holding a somewhat worn book in his hand, with a focused expression.

Qi Mingyu sat with her.

Major Wei hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.

"Captain Qi, I have something to tell you." Major Wei hesitated.

The meaning of this statement was obviously to avoid Zhou Shuwan.

Qi Mingyu frowned slightly and glanced at Zhou Shuwan.

Zhou Shuwan nodded.

He then followed Major Wei to another cabin.

Zhou Shuwan raised his head and watched their backs as they left, feeling a little curious.

Is there anything that needs to be hidden from her?

"What's wrong?" Qi Mingyu closed the door and asked in a low voice.

Major Wei felt a little embarrassed and avoided his eyes before speaking, "I think... you need to pay attention to Doctor Zhou's mental state next week? After all, she's not from the military, and I'm worried that she might not be able to adapt to this environment..."

Qi Mingyu was stunned for a moment.

Major Wei sighed, his tone somewhat helpless. "No one would be able to endure this kind of environment for too long. One of our maintenance personnel has a problem. I don't see any signs of her showing any symptoms, but the more she shows no symptoms, the more worried I become."

Qi Mingyu nodded, his tone relaxed: "I understand. Wanwan is actually very strong. But I will be careful next time, don't worry."

Major Wei breathed a sigh of relief and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay."

He felt that as the humanoid navigator among them, Zhou Shuwan must not get into trouble. The other party was a woman, but the people on the boat were all big and strong men, so it would be inconvenient to give her guidance.

Therefore, this important task can only be entrusted to Qi Mingyu!

Qi Mingyu smiled, turned and walked out of the cabin.

Zhou Shuwan stared at him with a pair of bright eyes. After he sat down, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you two talking about? Are you still hiding this from me?"

Qi Mingyu glanced at her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Nothing, Major Wei is worried that you can't adapt to this environment, so he asked me to enlighten you."

Zhou Shuwan was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Actually, it's not that bad."

She is not trying to be brave!

She could use space to directly sense what was happening many miles away, so she could feel the loneliness and desolation of the sea ice field more clearly and intuitively than anyone else on the fishing boat, as if they were the only ones left in the world.

But perhaps because Qi Mingyu was with her and there were many like-minded crew members on the ship, she didn't find it unbearable.

Qi Mingyu's eyes were gentle: "That's good."

Zhou Shuwan turned her head and looked at him, the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "You don't have to worry about me. I know the desolation of this ice field better than you do, but I can also feel its vitality better than you."

Qi Mingyu smiled, reached out and gently held her hand without saying anything else.

That night, Major Wei organized a chorus. The crew sat around on the deck and lit a bonfire. The firelight looked particularly warm in the darkness.

The singing echoed across the ice field. As someone sang, his voice gradually choked and his eyes became red, as if the emotions that had been pent up for a long time had finally found an outlet.

Some people gradually relaxed as the singing went on, with long-lost smiles appearing on their faces.

Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu sat in the middle of the crowd and shouted along with everyone else.

After venting loudly like this, it seemed as if an invisible force was flowing in the cabin, dispelling the haze that shrouded everyone's heart.

It was not until late at night that the singing gradually stopped and the crew members returned to the cabin one after another.

Zhou Shuwan's cheeks were red from singing so loudly, which made her look more energetic.

The fishing boats were not large, so most people lived in large bunk beds.

But as the only woman in the team, Zhou Shuwan can naturally enjoy some privileges.

Major Wei specially had someone allocate a double dormitory for her and Qi Mingyu. It was small, but they could have their own private space when washing or changing clothes.

After returning, Qi Mingyu couldn't help but lower his head and gently kissed her rosy cheek.

Zhou Shuwan was caught off guard and was stunned for a moment before she pursed her lips and smiled at him.

The next day, Zhou Shuwan sat in the cockpit feeling refreshed. He seemed to be in a better mood and his spatial perception range was wider.

Suddenly, her face changed and she could hardly hide her expression.

Qi Mingyu noticed it immediately and glanced at the other people in the cockpit. Fortunately, everyone was busy with their own things and no one paid attention to this place.

He then lowered his voice: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Shuwan seemed to be still in shock. He glanced at him, then gently placed his palm on the wall, feeling it with his heart.

How to describe her feelings at this moment?

Shock, horror, surprise, ecstasy...
