Although it was confirmed that Zhou Shuwan would be returning with a group of troops, Qi Mingyu would definitely be returning as well.

However, before going back, Zhou Shuwan made the first discovery.

Her job in the fishing team was to confirm the direction, so she had never actually gone down to the 100-meter abyss to get close to the whales.

However, one day, she stood at the bottom of a hundred-meter abyss, feeling the shock below, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

She said to Qi Mingyu, "I need to go downstairs."

Qi Mingyu was slightly stunned, then he understood what she meant: "You mean..."

Zhou Shuwan nodded and said, "A distance of one hundred meters is basically my limit."

The hundred-meter-deep abyss is now a huge ice cellar that the entire fishing team of 300 people worked day and night for nearly 20 days to dig out.

Only by standing at the bottom of the abyss can she feel the deeper sea and see what the deep sea looks like now!

Before the eternal night comes, people can still take a submarine to explore the seabed and are not completely unfamiliar with the conditions on the seabed.

However, now, their knowledge only stays on the surface of the ice field.

This is very detrimental to people's self-protection in the end times when disasters are frequent!

Qi Mingyu did not stop Zhou Shuwan, but wanted to go down with her.

The two of them put on safety locks and were slowly lowered to the bottom of the abyss by the pulley.

Standing on top and looking down, people who are afraid of heights will feel dizzy, but just looking at the huge group of whales will make you feel shocked.

However, when you actually reach the bottom and look at the huge whales around you that are frozen into ice, the shock is still indescribable.

Zhou Shuwan couldn't help but touch the whale in front of him!

It weighs one hundred tons, is 4 meters high and about 20 meters long.

She stood in front of the whale, as thin as an ant.

Qi Mingyu was also shocked by this hugeness!

After sighing, Zhou Shuwan's hand still did not leave the whale, but he felt the seabed under his feet with his heart.

Deep down, there is ice, and still ice...

The ice seemed to stretch endlessly to the deepest parts of the ocean floor.

Zhou Shuwan frowned slightly and was about to withdraw her hand, when suddenly, she felt something and her expression was slightly stunned.

Qi Mingyu looked at her because she was surrounded by busy crew members digging the whale out of the ice.

He didn't ask directly.

Zhou Shuwan felt that at a depth of more than 30 meters, there was a relatively calm undercurrent, which just passed through the bottom of the 100-meter abyss.

Her ability prevented her from seeing where this undercurrent came from, nor where it was going.

But it was enough to shock her.

Who would have thought that in this completely frozen underwater world, there is such a tenacious undercurrent slowly passing through!

This could be a sign that the seabed is warming, or it could be that the ocean is not completely frozen to death.

Zhou Shuwan remained calm and did not rush to share the news with Qi Mingyu. Instead, he walked around the hundred-meter abyss and looked at all the whales.

Cai and Qi Mingyu returned to the ground.

When there was no one around, she told Qi Mingyu what she had seen.

Qi Mingyu frowned slightly, and after being surprised, he found it easy to understand. After all, the sea is so vast, even boundless, how could everyone be frozen to death!

It is also normal to have some unfrozen undercurrents deep under the sea.

Zhou Shuwan pondered: "There's still a depth of thirty meters before everyone can discover this undercurrent!"

"No wonder you looked at all the whales just now. You wanted to see which whale was deeper!" Qi Mingyu said with a smile.

Zhou Shuwan nodded: "Yes, I did find a few particularly large ones, and they were also very deep, but the average whale is only three or four meters high, so even if you dig out the deepest whale, you may not find the undercurrent!"

The sound of the undercurrent is very small. People can only hear it from a distance of twenty or thirty meters, unless it is extremely quiet in the middle of the night, when there is no rumbling of machines, human activities, or the whistling wind on the ice field.

Qi Mingyu said decisively: "Then don't mention it!"

They have discovered schools of frozen fish and whales one after another, although they have been very careful to guide everyone to discover them each time.

However, if we continue to guide everyone to discover the undercurrent deep under the sea, the chances of Zhou Shuwan's space being discovered will be too high.

The family still remembers vividly the last time they were monitored and assassinated by Sun Xu.

They definitely don't want to go through that again.

Zhou Shuwan didn't hesitate too much and nodded: "Okay!"

She wanted to check the situation on the seabed, but she didn't want to be blind. She didn't have to share it with others, as long as the situation on the seabed didn't affect their current situation.

After a few days, the preparations were finally complete. The crew tied the whale securely with ropes and installed pulleys at the bottom to reduce the pressure on the fishing boat.

More than a dozen whales were slowly dragged behind the ship, leaving deep drag marks on the ice field.

Major Wei stood on the ice field with a serious expression, his eyes closely following the fishing boat that was about to set off.

He was the captain and had the highest military rank, so of course he had the obligation to stay and protect the whales, so he didn't go back.

"Deputy Captain, I'll leave everything to you." Major Wei's voice sounded particularly low in the cold wind. Although his tone was calm, the worry in his eyes could not be concealed.

The first officer's eyes were slightly red.

The deputy captain's eyes were red. He was extremely worried about leaving behind Major Wei and more than 100 other people. Each of them was missing half of their manpower. Once they encountered danger, the strength they had would also be reduced by half. But this was their helpless move!

He took a deep breath, his voice a little hoarse: "Major Wei, don't worry, we will definitely bring the whale back."

After saying this, he saluted solemnly, his movements were quick and decisive, with a sense of military fortitude.

Major Wei nodded and turned his gaze to Zhou Shuwan: "Doctor Zhou, please take everyone home."

Zhou Shuwan is everyone's last resort, and only she can ensure the ship's safe return.

Zhou Shuwan's eyes met with Major Wei's, and he nodded solemnly, his voice clear and powerful: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring everyone back safely."

Major Wei didn't say anything else, but just stood there and watched the fishing boat slowly sail away.

The wind on the ice field grew stronger and stronger, making his winter clothes rustle, but he remained motionless, his eyes fixed on the ship that was getting farther and farther away.

You must, you must be safe!

Only when the ship completely disappeared at the end of the vast ice field did he slowly retract his gaze, turned around and said to the people around him: "Everyone, keep working. We still have a lot to do."
