After listening to Major Wei's report, Captain Shang frowned slightly and tapped his fingers lightly on the control panel, making a low rhythm.

He turned around and looked at Zhou Shuwan.

"Doctor Zhou," Captain Shang asked in a low voice, "Do you think this sign of rising temperatures will affect the situation on Island 1?"

Zhou Shuwan withdrew his gaze from the porthole and shook his head slightly: "Captain Shang, we are still far away from Island No. 1 and cannot confirm the situation there for the time being.

But from the current perspective, the seabed temperature has indeed warmed up and geological activities under the ice are also intensifying.

As for whether rising temperatures will bring more dangers, I dare not jump to conclusions."

Captain Shang nodded, but the worry between his brows did not dissipate.

When he asked someone to immediately check the outdoor temperature, the result was still over 70 degrees below zero.

After a moment's thought, Captain Shang said, "Perhaps the changes beneath the ice haven't yet reached the surface, so we can't see any significant temperature changes outside."

This is a reasonable explanation.

However, there is actually another possibility. The rise in seabed temperature is most likely caused by geological changes and has nothing to do with outdoor temperature.

This idea was too hopeless. Even though Zhou Shuwan and Major Wei had some guesses in their minds, they did not say them out loud.

Captain Shang still did not give up hope. He arranged to carefully measure the temperature outside every day and report any changes in a timely manner.

Major Wei also had a heavy expression on his face and left.

Captain Shang turned to Zhou Shuwan again and asked, "Doctor Zhou, how long do you think it will take us to reach Island 1?"

Zhou Shuwan pursed her lips, a hint of caution in her eyes: "There are too many dangers along the way, I can't guarantee anything. Conservatively speaking, it will take about two to three months."

Captain Shang frowned even more tightly when he heard this.

They had enough fuel for three months, but to be on the safe side, they had to save as much fuel as possible.

The issue of fuel was something that everyone brought up when we were discussing the migration from the island with the senior management.

However, they had just arrived on the ice field and were not used to the environment. They also encountered several disasters one after another, so this matter was temporarily put on hold.

Now, we can't delay any longer!

Captain Shang has always been decisive and efficient in his work.

Since he had decided to start saving fuel, he discussed it with Captain Chen again, confirmed that there were no loopholes, and then issued the order.

They ordered all survivors to be concentrated on the warmest floors 6-10 of the mothership, and the remaining floors would not be heated unless necessary.

The dormitories, corridors, aisles and halls on every floor were packed with people. Although the space became cramped, no one complained.

As long as there is heating, food and survival, everyone is willing to endure any inconvenience.

The Zhou family originally had five people squeezed into a small dormitory, so naturally they didn't make any arrangements for anyone else.

Zhipeng and Xue Tao's families were arranged on the same floor.

When leaving the island, Zhipeng was indeed unwilling to leave just as Zhou Shuwan had expected.

Yuxuan's injuries have not yet stabilized, and the bumpy road is extremely dangerous for her.

But Zhipeng also knew that he could not change the mothership's decision.

At that time, Zhou Shuwan, Qi Mingyu, Zhong Tiyun and Zhou Jianghai all went to comfort him.

Zhipeng's eyes were red, his cheeks were sunken, and his voice was hoarse: "I know this is for everyone's good. I won't do anything, don't worry."

During the days of migration, Yuxuan stayed in the intensive care unit and underwent many rescue operations. Although she barely saved her life, her physical condition was still extremely weak.

Zhipeng stayed by Yuxuan's side almost every step of the way.

Now when everyone was moving to the middle floor, only Xue Tao's family of three moved in first, and took Zhipeng's family's supplies with them.

Since the dormitories on this floor were full, everyone had to squeeze into the corridor or hall and sleep on the floor with sleeping bags or mattresses.

Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu rarely return to the dormitory because of their respective tasks.

Zhong Tiyun asked Chunchun to squeeze into the dormitory as well, and the brothers Xue Tao and Xue Dong took turns staying overnight in the dormitory.

There are beds in the dormitory, which makes it much more comfortable to stay overnight.

Zhong Tiyun and Zhou Jianghai would visit Yuxuan every day, but every time they saw her sleeping with tubes inserted all over her body, they felt extremely sad.

No matter how well a comatose patient is cared for, he or she will inevitably lose weight.

In just half a month, Zhong Tiyun could hardly connect the person lying there with the Yuxuan in her memory.

At that time, although Yuxuan was also taciturn, she was also gentle and amiable, and relied heavily on Zhong Tiyun, her closest elder.

Zhong Tiyun watched her grow up, and later felt sorry for her experience, and paid the most attention to her and Chunchun.

Seeing her like this now certainly doesn't make me feel good.

She also prayed to God countless times to let Yuxuan wake up and live like a normal person!

He has already taken the lives of so many of their relatives and friends...

Just, just let poor Yuxuan go!

Xue Tao's family and Zhipeng's family have depended on each other for many years, and the two families have long been as close as one family.

Without Zhong Tiyun's reminder, Xue Tao and the others would go to the hospital from time to time to bring food and clothes to Zhipeng and take care of Yuxuan on his behalf so that he could have a short rest.

Yuxuan woke up several times, but each time she only opened her eyes briefly and soon fell asleep again.

Her injuries were too severe and her recovery was extremely slow.

The doctor couldn't be sure whether Yuxuan would eventually recover, but the fact that she woke up more and more often meant that her body functions were recovering.

This is also a good sign!

He told Zhipeng and the others not to be too anxious, but to wait patiently for the patient's body functions to recover, and then he would wake up.

Yuxuan is not the only one in the rescue area who is in this situation.

The disaster caused by the earthquake was too great. Although with the help of Zhou Shuwan, they had rescued as many people as possible.

But there were also hundreds of people injured. Those with minor injuries could recover after recuperation, but many of the seriously injured were unconscious and had broken limbs.

The mother ship also tried its best to send rescue areas to rescue everyone.

However, due to limited medical resources, everyone's recovery from injuries was very slow.

Even so, the medicines in those containers were of great help.

Otherwise, everyone will be even worse off.

Not only the mother ship, but also the fuel of other ships needs to be saved.

The cruise ship that Qi Mingyu is in charge of is specifically used to transport supplies. In addition to the ship full of supplies, there is only one group of team members and Qi Mingyu guarding it together.

Their heating was only for the cockpit.

Therefore, this order has no impact on them.

Qi Mingyu didn't know where they were going after changing their route at first. It was only when he took advantage of his free time in the evening to find Zhou Shuwan that he heard her whisper Captain Shang's plan.
