At least now we don’t have to worry about damage to the hull.
Captain Shang and his men can at least get a good night's sleep.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, rising sea levels are an inevitable trend, and they still cannot return to land. They can only live huddled in the cabin on the mother ship.
At this time, the sea level had risen to seven or eight meters, flooding the third or fourth floors of the mother ship.
However, these places are always underwater when at sea because of the heavy draft of the mother ship.
Therefore, the water pressure on the mother ship is normal compared to before.
There was no incident of the bottom cabin glass breaking and seawater pouring into the cabin.
Therefore, although the air quality has been extremely poor these days, people have been able to enjoy a rare sense of peace and comfort.
Also, the cruise ship brought by Tao Zheng and his crew was hit and damaged by ice in order to protect the mother ship and all the survivors on it.
Captain Shang stood at the window of the command room, gazing deeply at the sea in the distance.
The wind and waves were still surging, and a pungent fishy smell seeped in through the gaps in the closed windows, but he seemed unaware of it.
After a moment, he turned around and said to the adjutant behind him, "Go call Tao Zheng. I have something to discuss with him."
Adjutant Yun immediately nodded and left. Not long after, Tao Zheng walked into the command room.
He looked a little surprised, but overall he seemed calm.
Captain Shang motioned him to sit down and told him that because the cruise ship was damaged, the mother ship wanted to compensate them.
Tao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Captain Shang, you don't have to be like this. We are very grateful to be taken in by the mothership and to be able to enjoy the same shelter as other survivors.
Although there was still some food for us on the cruise ship, hundreds of people had to save as much as possible to survive for half a year.
Being able to join the mother ship now, with the protection of destroyers and cruisers, and not having to starve in the future, is already the best compensation."
Captain Shang waved his hand, his expression serious:
"You saved the mothership in a critical moment and rescued so many people. You have performed a great deed.
The mothership cannot ignore your contributions, and you don't have to be humble.
I'm considering whether to give each of your survivors some food or arrange accommodation for you on the mothership.
What do you think?
Tao Zheng asked doubtfully, "Captain Shang, is there any room left on the mothership?"
Captain Shang coughed dryly but did not explain because not only was a large amount of whale meat lost in the mother ship's cold storage, but a lot of things were also missing from the inventory of various supplies.
So they can make more room.
Now only he and Team Leader Han know about this.
He also didn't plan to tell anyone to avoid causing unnecessary panic.
He now had a vague idea that these supplies were under great threat when stored on the mothership, and it would be safest to put them away.
And when the time is right, these supplies will be returned safely.
Then, there is no need to worry.
Of course, there’s no point in worrying!
They couldn't find out who had taken the supplies away quietly overnight, nor did they know where they had hidden them.
He simply said vaguely to Tao Zheng, "The space on the mothership is indeed limited, but we will do our best to squeeze in the existing space and make some room. It shouldn't be a problem to accommodate a few hundred more people."
Tao Zheng nodded, knowing that Captain Shang really wanted to compensate them.
He naturally had to consider their people, so he asked, "If we're distributing food, how much will each person get? And if we're arranging accommodations on the mothership, where will they be provided?"
Captain Shang thought for a moment and said calmly, "If we're distributing food, each person should receive at least a month's supply. As for accommodation, we'll do our best to arrange it, but you might only be able to stay on the lower floors. I'll do my best to coordinate, but I'm not sure how much space we can free up yet."
