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

On the vast ocean, there are no maintenance stations or rescue ships, and any mechanical failure may have fatal consequences.

Although Zhou Jianghai and Qi Mingyu can carry out repairs, they are not professionals after all, so they have to rely on trial and error to solve many problems.

Zhou Jianghai frowned, his eyes sweeping across the surrounding sea. He said in a deep voice, "Can we make a detour in advance? We can go to an area with fewer dead fish and floating debris."

Zhou Shuwan shook his head: "There are too many floating objects, we can't avoid them. We can only be careful."

She had just sensed that the area within dozens of nautical miles centered on them was almost filled with dead fish and various floating objects.

In addition to these, there are also complete wreckage of the hull, some are scattered containers, and some large objects that cannot be identified.

No matter which direction you sail, you cannot completely avoid this "sea of ​​death".

"I'll go tell Xiaoyu and Mumu right away." After Zhou Jianghai said this, he turned around and strode towards the cockpit.

Zhong Tiyun stood on the deck and sighed softly: "I didn't think of this before we set off."

At that time, the mother ship was only thinking about what they would do if they encountered a big tsunami or ice rain!

They welded the entire hull with light and strong boiling point alloy to turn the cruise ship into a safe sea fortress, but they did not expect that they would encounter other difficulties.

Zhou Shuwan comforted Zhong Tiyun: "Mom, don't think too much. We will find a way to get through it."

Her tone was calm, but she was not at ease.

Although the bottom of the cruise ship is equipped with a protective net to block some large floating objects, small debris and seaweed may still be sucked into the water intake and affect the normal operation of the engine.

Once this happens, they must stop the ship and go into the sea to clean up.

The sea at this time is full of pollutants.

Once people enter, even if they are wearing a diving suit, they may be infected with unknown germs, which is very dangerous.

Therefore, Zhou Shuwan was unwilling to let his father and Xiao Yuge go into the sea unless it was absolutely necessary.

Mu Mu was in the cockpit and had already seen the bodies floating on the sea.

He was maneuvering the cruise ship to slow down, carefully observing the surroundings and trying to avoid areas where a large amount of floating objects gathered in the sea.

The cruise ship moved forward slowly, its hull cutting through the waves filled with floating corpses.

Under the sunlight, the fish corpses reflected a strange white light that was unbearable to look at.

Zhou Shuwan also came to the cockpit, closed his eyes, and gave directions to his brother.

Her perception was like an invisible net, covering the cruise ship.

She can "see" the position, size and movement direction of each floating object, and can also sense the hidden dangers underwater.

Like those half-sunken and half-floating boxes, or the wreckage of a ship that has been corroded by sea water to the point where only the skeleton remains.

"There is a large floating object fifty meters to the left front. It is irregular in shape. Be careful to avoid it." Zhou Shuwan opened his eyes and shouted to Mu Mu.

"Got it!" Mu Mu immediately adjusted the rudder and the cruise ship yawed slightly to the left, avoiding the floating object.

This happens every few minutes.

Although the speed slowed down a lot, with Zhou Shuwan's cooperation, they were still sailing safely for the time being.

Zhong Tiyun also followed her to the cockpit. Looking at her daughter's focused expression, a complex emotion surged in her heart.

She knew that her daughter's ability was an important guarantee for their family's survival in this apocalypse.

But she has also always worried that this ability will put too much of a burden on her daughter.

"Wanwan, do you want to take a break?" Zhong Tiyun asked softly, "It's tiring to keep concentrating like this."

Zhou Shuwan smiled slightly, "It's okay, Mom. I can hold on."

When the entire fleet was moving on the ice field, it was the most tiring time for her. She ate and slept in the cockpit and did not dare to slack off at all.

The lives of thousands of survivors were on her shoulders at the time, and even though she didn't show it on her face, she felt tremendous pressure in her heart.

Compared to that time, it is child's play now.

Her smile was easy.

Only then did Zhong Tiyun feel relieved.

She walked aside so as not to disturb her daughter.

They sailed on the sea for two more days.

At night, they stopped the engine and stayed in the original sea area, and the family took turns to rest.

Because Zhou Shuwan had to monitor the underwater situation during the day, she no longer participated in the night watch and instead had a good rest.

Qi Mingyu, Mu Mu, Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun were divided into two shifts, guarding the first and second half of the night.

The daytime also has its advantages, that is, even at night, the sky is still as bright as day, and everything can be observed clearly.

Just use a telescope and be more careful.

On the fifth day of sailing at sea, when Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu were changing shifts, a low and sharp vibration came from the bottom of the cruise ship, like some huge monster rolling under the hull.

The Zhou family members were startled by the vibration and froze. The water in the cup began to shake and make a "splashing" sound.

Zhou Shuwan noticed something was wrong immediately.

She placed her hand on the bulkhead and could already "see" that the sea water below was turbid and dark in color, with some slender seaweed and white objects floating beneath the surface.

"It was the water plants and the dead fish that were sucked into the engine!" she said in a hurried voice.

Qi Mingyu reacted extremely quickly. Almost as soon as she finished speaking, he reached out and pulled the emergency stop button on the console.

"squeak--!"

The huge cruise ship slowly slowed down due to inertia, and the sound of sea water hitting the hull became dull.

"What's going on?" Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun also rushed over.

When he heard that the engine had sucked in water plants, his brows furrowed.

I don’t know whether the situation is serious or not.

Qi Mingyu was already preparing to change into his diving suit and go into the sea to check.

"You can't go in the water," Zhou Shuwan stopped him immediately. "Such dirty, smelly water is likely to contain bacteria and parasites. Cleaning it up is too risky. If it gets infected, it won't be worth it."

Her gaze turned towards the lower deck. The engine room was inside the hull, but the propeller was closest to it. She could try to go to the engine room and use the space to take out the debris.

She had tried before to collect the gasoline and diesel at the bottom of the gas station into the space through the oil pipes. It was not difficult.

But now it's in the sea.

The engine room was filled with a faint smell of engine oil, and the air was stuffy and hot.

Putting his hands on the floor, Zhou Shuwan could "see" the huge propeller drive shaft below, which was currently parked there quietly.

At this time, the debris was stuck inside, dragging a long tail.

She took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and aimed her palm in the direction where the drive shaft extended.

Her consciousness slowly sank into the space, and just like she usually did when collecting supplies, she sent her mental power towards the invisible area.

Seawater, aquatic plants, fish carcasses...
