Chapter 625: The Tip of the Iceberg!

Herbert led the crew of the Noah's Ark to inspect all aspects, and the cargo on the ship was not damaged in the slightest, and there was no damage to the hull, at most the bullets left some bullet marks on the hull under the initial sweep of the pirates' guns.

These shallow bullet marks don't matter, and they can be repaired when they come to port.

After finishing all this, Herbert led the crew to Xiao Yunlong and Moon, and saluted Xiao Yunlong and them together, saying, "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Mu, thank you. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid it would be dangerous this time. I really didn't expect this pirate ship to be equipped with a cannon port. You were the ones who saved the material on the Noah's Ark, thank you. ”

Xiao Yunlong smiled, and he said, "Uncle He, you are serious. If Asa hadn't asked you to do us a favor and cross the Arctic Ocean to the Siberian Islands, we wouldn't have encountered these pirates. Speaking of which, the attack on the Noah's Ark was due to us. Therefore, it is naturally our responsibility to protect the safety of this freighter. So you don't really need to thank you. ”

"That's right, we're here anyway, and we'll keep Noah's Ark safe. No matter how many pirates come, they are not afraid. Moon said with a smile.

Herbert smiled, and he said: "This area of the sea, that is, this skeleton pirate group is the most rampant, and the power is also the largest. Now, their ship has sunk, and those pirates have sunk to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish. In this way, the sea area will become more or less safer. This will benefit a lot of cargo ships. You deserve our gratitude for your contributions. ”

"Everyone is on the same boat, and we should be in the same boat. Words of thanks need not be said. Let's just have a drink together. Xiao Yunlong said.

"Brother Xiao is right, we should have a drink to celebrate in a while. Asa laughed.

Asa was extremely excited, although he was born in the Rothschild family, but since he was a child, he liked martial arts and the iron-blooded meaning of men in battle. Therefore, Fang had just seen Xiao Yunlong and Moon with his own eyes that they were brave and devastating, which made him eye-opening and extremely excited.

……

The rest of the journey was extremely peaceful, and there were no more pirates.

The Noah's Ark has completely entered the waters of the Arctic Ocean, where the climate is bitterly cold, and the howling cold wind is still shivering even if the whole body is wrapped in frostproof clothing. Standing on the deck, as far as the eye can see, you can see patches of sea ice floating on the surface of the sea.

The vast majority of the surface of the Arctic Ocean is covered by sea ice all year round, making it the only white ocean on Earth. Sea ice in the Central Arctic Ocean has been around for 3 million years and is permanent.

Naturally, Noah's Ark will not be heading towards the central part of the Arctic Ocean, which has long been occupied by permanent sea ice and immensely large icebergs. The route of the Noah's Ark was due south of the Arctic Ocean, all the way towards the Siberian Islands.

Rao is so, there are still dangers along the way.

In the marginal seas around the Arctic Ocean, there are countless icebergs with strange shapes. Icebergs drift southward along ocean currents, some from the Arctic to the North Atlantic. Since the rafting route is not fixed, it brings great harm to the boats sailing.

Fortunately, Herbert was a very experienced captain, and under his command, the Noah's Ark sailed unhindered.

During this period, the huge steel hull of the Noah's Ark also crushed some sea ice floating on the sea, which was not an iceberg after all, but only a layer floating on the sea, which could not stop the crushing of the Noah's Ark at all.

After entering the Arctic Ocean, some strong warriors such as Xiao Yunlong, Moon, Xiaodao, Xiao Wu, King Kong, and Duan Dongliu can often stand on the deck and look at the landscape of the Arctic Ocean, and hold binoculars to look at the white icebergs in the distance of the Arctic Ocean, which is also a visual enjoyment.

As for Luo Ying, Ye Manyu and these women, they will be shivering from the cold when they stand on the deck for a while, and they will return to the cabin where they are resting. The resting cabins are heated, so even in the cold Arctic Ocean, it will not interfere with daily routines.

Herbert had heard very little since entering the Arctic Ocean, and he spent most of his time keeping an eye on the sailing path, watching out for any surprises.

On the seventh day of entering the Arctic Ocean, it was not far from the Siberian Islands, and there were about 300 nautical miles left.

On this very day, Herbert took the telescope and looked into the sea in front of him, and suddenly, his face changed suddenly, and he saw a white dot in front of him, which grew larger and larger as he adjusted the focus of the telescope, and reflected a dazzling light in the sunlight.

Iceberg!

Herbert finally confirmed that the white dot in front of him was an iceberg, just the tip of the iceberg, to be exact.

For a moment, Herbert's face turned a little pale, but he quickly calmed down and began to give commands to the cockpit cabin: "Turn the hull at a 45° angle to the right, quick!"

"Captain, on the right side is a layer of sea ice, and after testing, the thickness of this layer of sea ice has reached a thickness of 2~3 meters!" said the crew member of the operation immediately.

"Slow down, slow through the ice, fast! There's an iceberg ahead!" Herbert said loudly.

Thundered!

Under Herbert's command, the Noah's Ark turned to the right, and the hull of the ship crushed towards the thick layer of sea ice covered by the sea at a certain speed.

But as this layer of sea ice was gradually crushed, Noah's Ark returned to a stable state.

However, the slight shaking and trembling of the hull still attracted Xiao Yunlong, Moon, and Asa to them.

When Asa arrived, he inquired and learned that there was a floating iceberg flowing down the river in front of the route, and the situation was extremely dangerous. On the surface, there is only a tip of the iceberg, but in fact 99% of the iceberg area is sunk under the surface of the sea. Therefore, once it collides with this iceberg, the situation is unimaginable.

Under Herbert's command, the Noah's Ark completely deviated from its original route, running all the way towards the surface of the sea covered with sea ice, and was still changing its position drastically.

Half an hour later, Noah's Ark had deviated from its original route by about three kilometers.

At this moment, about three kilometers above them, the iceberg also floated over, and when it was closer, it was seen that the iceberg was almost the size of a mountain when it was only a corner of the sea. As for the size of the iceberg sunk under the surface of the sea, it is unknown.

Such a huge iceberg, Rao is Noah's Ark collided with it, and under the violent impact, I am afraid that the ship will sink.

"Whew!"

After safely avoiding the iceberg, Herbert exhaled lightly, the vest he was wearing was soaked with cold sweat.

Bang Bang Bang!

Xiao Yunlong couldn't help but applaud Herbert, if he hadn't decisively issued a series of orders, relying on his veteran experience to make evasive deployments in advance, I was afraid that this Noah's Ark would be more than auspicious.

After another five days or so, the Noah's Ark finally approached the Siberian Islands of Tsarist Russia.

……

The promised November 11 outbreak began. It's a change.
