This world is terrible

Chapter 367 Night Flight (Revised 2000)
At night, there was a light rain at Homecoming Port.

The fish lanterns rippling slightly in the wind, the light passes through the thin skin and is reflected on the undulating water surface, like a school of glowing fish swimming back and forth, observing the daily life on the shore every night.

rumbling...

The port is a little different tonight.

Under the dazzling spotlight, the continuous operation sound of the forklift sounded, and a yard of crates wrapped with bubble bags were slowly lifted from the ground, turned around and sent into the warehouse.

"What are these things?"

The two figures walked together, and one of them asked curiously, "Hasn't the necessary supplies been replenished long before sailing, why are there so many?"

"It should be temporarily added equipment."

Another person replied: "After all, no one would have thought that mutations would start with death."

"You two!"

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, and a man wearing a white sailor shirt came from a distance, asking repeatedly: "Who are you? Why are you wearing our sailor's uniform?"

Glancing at the epaulettes of the other party's anchor, the two people who were still communicating stopped, and said enthusiastically, "Second officer?"

"You don't remember me? That's really a noble person forgetting things. Without your help before, I couldn't imagine how bad the voyage these days would be because of seasickness."

The voice seemed to have unknown magic power, which immediately stunned the aggressive second officer.

Somehow, a memory that seemed to be true gradually emerged from his mind, and then it was endowed with the image of the two.

"You... are you really from our ship?"

He hesitated.

"of course."

Gao Yi responded with a smile, turned his head to look at Ah Shen beside him, and said in a low voice, "Now we have two routes to decide: one is to enter the deck crew to confirm the navigation status and the dangers that exist nearby. The other is to mix in The scientific research team, follow up the research results of the experimenters on the ocean."

"Which one do you choose?"

Ah Shen hesitated for a few seconds, and said, "Follow-up research or something doesn't seem to be suitable for me...I'd better choose one."

"Then I will choose two."

Gao Yi looked at the second officer, and pointed to the white coat that had been re-transformed on his body: "Sorry, I'm actually a scientific researcher on the ship, and this is your sailor."

"Remember? It followed you before. This is well known. As a newcomer to this industry, there is still a lot to learn, isn't it?"

Ah Shen, who looked like a boy, was pushed out and smiled politely at the second officer.

"is it?"

The second officer looked at Ah Shen for a few times, and somehow felt that there was some violation, but he couldn't find the violation, so he had to turn around and leave: "Forget it."

"If you are all right, hurry back to your posts, and the Sky Eye will leave soon."

"Departure?"

The trainee sailor Ah Shen looked at the back of the second officer leaving, and muttered to himself: "This is much earlier than estimated..."

Gao Yi turned his back and connected to a communication channel that had just been established.

"Descartes, can you hear me?"

A few kilometers away, in a hotel room, Xiaodi stood in front of the window, looking at the hazy port lights in the rain, and replied: "Everything is normal, Mr. Gao."

"My signal is enough to maintain your communication network within 20 nautical miles. I will continue to observe the follow-up situation in East Marina Bay and provide ground support."

"very good."

Gao Yi stepped on the ship's ladder and stepped onto the deck of the Sky Eye. Looking up, there was only a dark ocean in front of him. The slanting raindrops fell from the sky, accompanied by the violent sea wind. open your eyes.

"start to act."

……

Ship wheelhouse.

Ah Shen maintained the demeanor that a newcomer should have, and followed the second officer in step by step.

As soon as it entered the door, it saw several persons in charge of different fields, different divisions of labor, and different functions surrounding the desk, discussing about Dongbinwan.

"During the mooring period, Professor Lu visited fishermen and monitored the surrounding waters, and determined that the number of marine life with the characteristics of death increased significantly in the southeast."

"Among them, herring, yellow croaker, and mackerel are the most widely distributed fishes in offshore areas. Most of the impacts on this area of ​​Dongbin Bay are likely to come from them."

"Another problem."

An old man who also looks not young thinks: "... If it is true that these offshore fish have affected the ecology of Dongbin Bay, then who is affecting them?"

The rest are silent.

"This problem... I am afraid that we will only see the clues when we go deeper."

The person in charge of the executive bureau moved his eyes slightly, and speculated: "If the so-called 'death', as we judged, can be transmitted through the simplest contact, what kind of changes will happen to the ocean ecology?"

"Is it possible that it will cause a dead silence in the sea?"

"impossible."

Another expert in a different field vetoed: "How strong is the vitality of the ocean? If this kind of energy can really turn a sea area into dead silence under the premise of depletion."

"Don't talk about Kyushu... Lafan, Lighthouse, Dan Island, Gaoli, Nigo, Solomon Islands and even the world, I am afraid that none of them can escape its poison."

"But now? There is only one Dongbin Bay in the entire Kyushu, which undoubtedly sends a signal that implies the size of the situation, indicating that the current situation is still within our control..."

During the discussion, Ah Shen saw that the captain and the first mate had planned the route, and the entire Sky Eye began to head southeast according to the planned route.

Huhu——

On the deck, the sea breeze mixed with raindrops hit straight.

Under the dark world, only the flickering lights on the water surface at the stern remain.

That is the light of Dongbin Bay, and it is also the last afterglow of order and humanity.After this farewell, it means that human beings have completely stepped into the unknown territory and will fight against the eternal laws of the ocean.

"Time to see my new colleagues."

Gao Yi turned his back and left from the deck.

Now he is a "scientific researcher", and his work place is naturally no longer the equipment warehouse and workshop where most of the crew members are located, but has come to the middle of the entire Sky Eye, a medium-sized biological laboratory.

Several decks are connected by a staircase, and Gao Yi just made a few turns before arriving in front of the well-lit laboratory.

Through the wide open security door, he could see more than a dozen scientific researchers in protective suits gathered together, as if they were talking about something, but no one even noticed his arrival.

Gao Yi didn't make a sound, and started looking around on his own.

"Ok?"

After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped, looked curiously at a tray, and saw crabs on it, its carapace had been lifted, revealing the white tissue structure inside, followed by a smell of crabs. Pungent odor.

"Is this a study of 'death'?"

With [The Fool] beside him, Gao Yi ignored the "death" left by the corpse, and stretched out his hand towards it.

"What do you want to do?"

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.

Gao Yi looked at the hand that was firmly controlling him, and slowly raised his gaze.
