After all the wounds were treated, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the front.
Everyone looked up and saw countless huge ice blocks falling from the sky, hitting the ice surface and stirring up snow mist.
The ice fell at an extremely fast speed, as if it was going to tear the entire ice field apart.
"It's over, we can't escape!" A team member murmured in a low voice, his eyes full of despair.
The successive dangers made everyone realize that they were in the center of the ice collapse, surrounded by collapsing ice fields, with nowhere to escape.
Zhou Shuwan stood in the cockpit, his fingers lightly resting on the cabin wall.
After a moment, she said to Major Wei, "Major Wei, the ship should turn 30 degrees to the left, at the fastest speed!"
Without hesitation, Major Wei immediately ordered: "Everyone, listen up! Turn left 30 degrees and advance at full speed!"
The crew quickly followed the order, the ship's engine roared, and the hull suddenly turned and headed to the left.
Huge blocks of ice fell from the sky and almost hit the fleet. The hull shook violently, and everyone on the deck grabbed the fixed objects around them to steady themselves.
"Bang!" A huge block of ice hit the ice on the right side of the fleet, stirring up ice waves several meters high, and the hull shook violently again.
One crew member was nearly thrown out of the boat, but was fortunately caught by the crew members next to him.
"Hold on! Don't let go!" Major Wei shouted loudly, his eyes fixed on the front.
Zhou Shuwan was still standing in the cockpit, his fingers lightly resting on the side of the ship.
With a focused expression and sharp eyes, she directed the fleet to avoid the most dangerous areas.
"Turn 15 degrees to the right and speed up!" she spoke again, her voice very calm.
Major Wei immediately gave the order and the fleet quickly adjusted its direction to avoid the collapsed ice field ahead.
Ice blocks kept falling, and the fleet seemed to be walking on the edge of a knife. If they were not careful, they would fall into the abyss.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Several huge blocks of ice hit the back of the fleet, and the hull shook violently again.
Everyone on the deck held on tightly to the fixed objects, their faces pale and beads of sweat oozing from their foreheads.
"Hold on a little longer! We'll be out of the danger zone soon!" Major Wei encouraged loudly, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
Zhou Shuwan's eyes were still fixed on the front, her expression unmoved. After a moment, she spoke again: "Turn left 10 degrees, full speed ahead!"
The fleet adjusted its direction again and headed to the left.
Huge ice blocks kept falling, and the fleet seemed to be walking in the hands of death and could be swallowed up at any time.
Finally, under Zhou Shuwan's precise command, the fleet successfully avoided the most dangerous area.
The ice sheet ahead gradually became flat, and the sound of collapse gradually faded away. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves slightly relaxed.
"We are safe!" A crew member murmured in a low voice, with a smile of surviving the disaster on his face.
Major Wei's expression remained serious as he said to the crew, "Everyone stay alert and keep moving forward! Don't let your guard down!"
The fleet continued to move forward, and the roar of the engines echoed over the ice field.
The crew members took turns to rest, their tired bodies supported almost by instinct.
Three hours later, the fleet finally arrived in safe waters.
The surrounding ice fields gradually became stable, and the sound of collapse completely disappeared.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves finally relaxing.
Major Wei stood at the bow of the ship, looking back at the collapsed ice field in the distance that was no longer visible, with a hint of fear in his eyes.
After a moment, he turned to the crew and said, "Everyone check the ship, and the maintenance crew will start repairs immediately!"
The maintenance personnel sprang into action, their tools clinking.
After everyone got off the boat, they could see the miserable state of the leading fishing boat.
It is the largest fishing vessel in this fleet.
The tilt of the bow was particularly striking at this moment. The metal shell looked like a ball of paper crumpled by a huge force, with the edges twisted and concave inward. A slight strong wind could cause people to lose their balance.
Looking closer at the hull, the bulkheads were covered with scratches of varying depths. In some places, the paint had peeled off completely, revealing the rusty steel plates underneath.
The guardrails at the edge of the deck were knocked crooked, and several pillars were even broken and hung in the air.
"Let's deal with the critical part first." The old maintenance worker in the lead shouted, and the welding gun in his hand spurted out blue flames with a "hiss".
They took out a few pieces of silver-gray boiling point alloy from the toolbox. This stuff melts when heated and becomes as hard as a ship's hull steel plate after cooling. It is perfect for dealing with this kind of emergency wound.
Blue and white sparks danced in the depressions, and the molten alloy flowed along the cracks, soon welding a neat reinforcement strip on the bow. The originally loose metal was firmly fixed, and the degree of tilt was visibly reduced.
As for the scattered small dents and paint chips, everyone simply circled them with markers, planning to completely renovate them after returning to port after the mission was completed.
Major Wei stood under the boat and watched, his tense jawline only relaxing slightly when the maintenance worker made a "safe" gesture.
As long as I can survive the rest of the voyage, this minor injury is nothing.
He asked someone to prepare lunch, then looked around and found Zhou Shuwan sitting on the ice field next to him.
At this time, she was sitting with her brother, talking about something.
Through the transparent mask, you can see that her expression is calm and she seems very peaceful.
Does this mean that future travel will be safer?
Major Wei thought for a moment, then walked over and greeted him casually, "Doctor Zhou."
Zhou Shuwan and Mu Mu both stood up.
Major Wei noticed with his sharp eyes that there were traces of branches on the ground, which looked like a route map.
However, he couldn't understand anything about the random lines drawn on it.
He pretended not to notice and first asked a few questions about the injury on Mu Mu's arm: "How is it now? Do you need any other medicine? Although we don't bring much medicine, we can still get a few boxes if we squeeze together."
Mu Mu hurriedly shook his head: "No, my sister bandaged me very well, please rest assured, Captain."
Major Wei smiled and patted his shoulder, then looked at Zhou Shuwan with a more serious expression: "Doctor Zhou, do you think we will encounter danger on the way back?"
Such an obvious test, not only Zhou Shuwan, but even Mu Mu could hear it.
He frowned slightly and was about to speak, but Zhou Shuwan stopped him and looked at him seriously: "Major Wei, we can't predict what will happen next, but I think as long as we follow this latest route, we'll be safe for the time being."
Now they don’t know what happened. Maybe it was the violent movement of the seabed crust that caused the ice layer to collapse and the iceberg to rise suddenly.
But, how long will it last and how wide will it be.
No one can be sure!
