The Cursed Ship Chapter 100: Iron Loss
Less than half a day after entering the Ross Sea, Zheng Yang and Saiyulali felt a trace of abnormal fatigue, and there was always a kind of irritability to breed.
This is a contradictory state, just like being sick, upset and irritable, making it even more uncomfortable.
Both of them are extraordinary, and they have far more control over their bodies and emotions than ordinary people. The current level of influence is not too great for them to stand.
Zheng Yang's heart moved, and he asked, "Alice, have you been affected?"
After a while, Alice replied, "Hmph, I am very uncomfortable. The sea water here will hurt the hull."
Zheng Yang checked the state of the ship's spirit, but found no abnormalities, and felt Alice's bulging mouth, and suddenly laughed.
Afterwards, Zheng Yang also found that the consumption rate of psionic energy was faster than when he first entered the Ross Sea.
He took a closer look and found that the steel in the seawater-soaked part of the ship's hull was slowly losing, and then the spirit ship ingested iron from the seawater to repair it.
Although the hull is mainly made of wood, there is a large amount of steel wrapped in the corners of the ship. This continuous repair process has caused the consumption of psionic energy to accelerate by three percentage points.
Looking through the underwater perception, there are three paddle-mounted machines without magic circle coverage, and the underwater part has been slightly rusted.
"It's the disorder of the magnetic field that caused the body's discomfort!" Saiyulali said after feeling it for a moment.
Zheng Yang nodded. The iron loss is due to the sea water, while the biological fatigue and emotional instability are due to the discomfort caused by the magnetic field. Even the fish in the fish barn were sluggish, or swam desperately, and some simply turned up their belly.
Zheng Yang decisively covered three electric propellers with his array.
This will undoubtedly increase the consumption of psionic energy. Fortunately, I have found the fishing island and can stay overnight to replenish the psionic energy reserve.
After adjusting his course and sailing to the island for half an hour, Zheng Yang let out a cry of surprise.
"What's the matter?" Seyulali looked at him.
Zheng Yang held his binoculars, pointed at the island and said, "Look, we don’t seem to be close to the island, we are farther away!"
"How is it possible, will it move?"
Seyulali also picked up the binoculars and looked at it for a while, muttering to hell.
Zheng Yang sensed the underwater situation for a while, and guessed: "There may also be an ocean current pushing us away!"
The waves created by the magic circle push the spirit ship forward, but if they are on a large ocean current, and the speed of the ocean current exceeds the speed of the spirit ship, they will be farther and farther away from the target island.
"Record the track, turn right forty-five degrees, speed 25 knots, and the time is 4:08 PM!"
……
"Turn left one hundred and thirty-five degrees, at a speed of 25 knots, and the time is 4:40 in the afternoon!"
After half an hour, Zheng Yang and Saiyulali finally determined that they were approaching the island. However, a large number of reefs appeared under the surface of the sea, some of which were just below the surface, and appeared and disappeared as the waves undulated.
Zheng Yang slowed down, using his perception of underwater to avoid the reefs everywhere, and approaching the island little by little.
Two hours later, the sky was completely dark, and they were at least five nautical miles away from the island.
At this time, Zheng Yang gave another cry of surprise. At more than 30 meters underwater, there was the wreck of a shipwreck. The metal on it had been lost. Only some non-metallic things were stuck between the rocks. It was vaguely recognizable that it was a ship.
is not only steel, all metal things will accelerate corrosion in the sea water here. What kind of force is plundering metal through sea water?
As he continued to deepen, Zheng Yang found more and more shipwrecks. It seems that endless naval battles have taken place here, and one fleet after another has been buried.
The draft of the lou ship is very shallow, Zheng Yang controlled his direction and carefully avoided the reefs.
is really weird. Even if the magnetic field here is weird, the underwater radar will fail, and the underwater imaging system should be able to detect and avoid the reefs. How could it sink so many ships?
Still, this magnetic field disorder has been severe enough to affect the use of most electronic devices?
But those reefs are indeed too weird. They are crisscrossed like a stone forest, and the fish have to get lost. Fortunately, the spirit ship can provide the perception of underwater, otherwise, even if the draft of the ship is shallow, it will be difficult to avoid hitting the reef.
By the way, Zheng Yang thought of the fish, only to realize that there was seaweed underwater, but he couldn't find a fish.
What a weird environment.
In the last five nautical miles, Zheng Yang took an entire hour to pass, and finally couldn't move forward more than ten meters offshore.
The moonlight is blocked by the clouds, and there is really no star.
The small island is dark, and under the searchlights, some broken assault boats and the wreckage of rubber boats can be found on the shore.
"Spend the night here first, and check the environment on the island tomorrow before looking for the Medusa monster!"
Zheng Yang dropped the anchor. He didn’t need to worry about the anchor being stuck on the reefs. The anchor of the spirit ship was also covered by the magic circle. Since Zheng Yang became the space transmission seal, he could send the anchor back with a thought. .
Even, as an extension of the spirit ship magic circle, Zheng Yang can also extend the depth of perception to the seabed infinitely through the anchor, and through the contact of the anchor~IndoMTL.com~, transfer the things from the seabed to the ship, including creatures.
So he can actually carry out deep sea fishing very easily, but he needs to load a longer anchor cable. At present, the anchor cable of the ship is only 100 meters.
By the same token, Zheng Yang can also fix a set of boat rods, and use it for sea fishing after being covered by the array. As long as the big fish hits the fishing line, they can be caught directly. Of course, that kind of fishing is soulless!
The scent of food wafted from the first floor, and Seyulali made the meal.
Zheng Yang left the cab and twisted his waist unnaturally, always feeling uncomfortable.
"Ordinary people entering this sea area are indeed prone to problems. The influence of this chaotic magnetic field alone makes people unbearable."
Seyulali’s cooking skills are relatively ordinary. She is used to taking canned food directly and eating it after simple processing. Zheng Yang is not picky, he gulps, and has time to talk:
"There are many shipwrecks on the seabed near here, and the sea water will accelerate the corrosion of metal objects. Someone has landed on the island before, and there are the wreckage of landing craft on the shore. I suspect that those people may have died on the island. So tomorrow must be Be careful, there may be danger on the island."
Seyulali pressed her lips and asked, "Do we need to keep someone to watch the night?"
This is not necessary. Alice is there, Zheng Yang will be notified at any time if something happens.
Because of being robbed of the bunk by Saiyulali these days, Alice's boss is upset and has been ignoring Zheng Yang. But she will not lose the chain of what is told her.
Zheng Yang shook his head and said: "No need to watch the night, I have an early warning device on the ship, and I will know the first time when something happens!"
The influence of the magnetic field prevented the two of them from practicing meditation and sleeping, so they had to roll the sheets and toss into the night. If you change to an ordinary person, it is estimated that you will have to be driven mad within two or three days.
