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

On the way back, the ice field was still endless, and the sky was endlessly dark, as if the world had been swallowed by this darkness.

The fishing boat moved forward slowly, and the dozen or so whales dragged behind it looked like hills.

They seemed to be carrying hills one after another forward.

The crew members stood on the deck, glancing at the whales from time to time, with a mixture of fatigue and satisfaction in their eyes.

After a month and a half of hard work, they finally returned home with a full load.

The wind on the ice field is still fierce, occasionally mixed with tiny ice particles.

Zhou Shuwan stood at the bow, his hands tucked into his heavy winter clothes, his eyes piercing through the vast darkness, as if trying to see the road ahead clearly.

Qi Mingyu walked up to her, patted her shoulder gently, and whispered, "If you're tired, go in and rest for a while. It's very windy here."

Zhou Shuwan shook her head, her eyes still fixed on the front: "I miss my parents and Mu Mu and the others."

"They must be safe." Qi Mingyu comforted him, "We'll see them soon."

Zhou Shuwan nodded and suddenly laughed again: "I wonder what their expressions will be when they see the whale we brought back!"

Qi Mingyu's lips curled up slightly when he heard this: "Dozens of tons of supplies are enough to shock them."

The fleet had a smooth journey and did not encounter any ice storms or other natural disasters.

The return journey was smooth, taking them one and a half months. In addition to transporting heavy objects, they also encountered two ice pellet storms, but fortunately they got through them safely.

As the outlines of the island and the mother ship gradually came into view, the crew on the deck couldn't help cheering.

They left as unknown hunters, but returned as heroes with a full load.

The residents of the island had already noticed the fleet's return and flocked to the dock.

The soldiers on the mother ship also put down their work and gathered on the deck, staring at the slowly approaching fishing boat.

When the whales trailing behind the boat finally became visible, everyone was stunned.

"Is that... a whale?" someone asked in a low voice with disbelief in their tone.

"More than a dozen whales..." another person muttered to himself, staring at the huge creatures.

Captain Shang stood on the deck of the mother ship, his eyes slowly sweeping over the whales, his expression gradually changing from initial shock to complexity.

He quickly got off the mothership and walked over here with his men.

Soon he strode up to him.

The second-in-command stepped forward and saluted: "Captain Shang, we have fulfilled our mission and found new supplies!"

Captain Shang's gaze swept over the dusty group of people in front of him, then slowly turned his head to look at the whales behind the fishing boat, which looked like small hills.

He exhaled slowly and suddenly smiled: "Good! Good! Good!"

He said three good words in a row.

"God is willing to help us!" He looked at the first officer in front of him and said in a low and powerful voice, "Where did you find it?"

The first officer took a deep breath and said with a hint of pride, "We dug a hundred-meter-deep abyss deep in the ice sheet and discovered these whales."

Captain Shang nodded slightly: "Where's Major Wei?"

"He insisted on staying on the ice to guard the remaining whales. We found over 300 of them, and there's no way we could bring them all back at once."

The second-in-command replied with a hint of worry in his tone, "Major Wei was worried about leaving others waiting there. So he asked us to bring these whales back first."

Captain Shang was silent for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the sound of a wheelchair turning behind him.

He looked back and saw Captain Chen slowly walking towards him with the help of the communicator.

It turned out that when he got the news, he rushed over despite his physical discomfort.

"Captain Chen." Captain Shang walked over quickly, a hint of concern in his tone, "Why are you here?"

Captain Chen raised his hand slightly, indicating that he was fine: "I heard that you brought back a whale, so I came to take a look."

Captain Shang nodded and turned to the deputy captain and said, "Please tell me in detail about the specific circumstances of this operation."

The second-in-command stood in front of the two captains and reported the details of the operation one by one with a solemn expression.

From the discovery of the whale group to the sudden attack of the ice pellet storm, to Major Wei's decision and the final division of labor.

Captain Shang and Captain Chen listened very carefully, nodding or frowning from time to time.

"Major Wei's decision is very decisive." Captain Chen said softly after listening, "These whales can solve the island's supply problems for a long time."

Captain Shang nodded, his gaze falling on the whales again, his tone filled with emotion: "Dozens of tons of supplies are indeed enough. This is really great news."

"Let's go clean up the whale first." Captain Chen turned to look at Captain Shang, his tone calm and firm: "The crew members are tired, let them go back and reunite with their families first."

Captain Shang nodded and immediately gave the order: "All crew members, disembark and rest! The department responsible for supplies, immediately begin storing the whales!"

The crew members got off the ship one after another, and the dock was crowded with people.

As the highest-ranking leader on the ship, the deputy captain naturally needs to report to the two captains individually.

However, Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu don’t need it.

They soon met up with Zhong Tiyun, Zhou Jianghai and Mu Mu who had been waiting nearby.

"Wanwan, Xiaoyu!" Zhong Tiyun took Zhou Shuwan's hand and looked them up and down, her eyes full of concern: "You are finally back."

Zhou Shuwan smiled slightly, and said in a relaxed tone: "Mom, we are back, and we didn't encounter any danger at all."

"You kid, you only report good news and not worries! I don't even know the dangers on the road! I've been worried sick these past few days..."

She wanted to say a few words to express her concerns, but the children had just returned and it was a great occasion. She didn't want to say anything discouraging, so she quickly shut up and looked at the huge whales.

Zhou Jianghai stood aside, his eyes sweeping across the whales, a look of shock on his face: "How did you discover these whales?"

Qi Mingyu nodded: "We found it deep in the ice field."

He glanced at the crowd gathered on the ice field watching the whales and unwilling to leave. There were some things that were not convenient to say here.

Zhou Jianghai understood and nodded immediately: "Let's go back and talk. You must have worked hard all the way back. Go home and rest."

Zhipeng, Xue Tao, and the others had naturally come as well. Since the Zhou family was having a reunion, they couldn't disturb them. So, they squeezed through the crowd and came over to greet Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu: "You're finally back. We were all very worried."

Zhou Shuwan asked about their recent situation with a smile.

The family walked towards home while talking.

The residents of the island were still immersed in shock, their eyes occasionally glancing at the whales, and discussions continued one after another.
