CHAPTER XLVII
The boat they got back from the docks was huge, and the god was surprised how they managed to drag such a big boat back.
But it is impossible to give enough personnel ration to fill the whole ship, huge ships, and only a few dozen people will end up on board.
After the ship returned, the engineers of the base headquarters immediately began to work on the transformation, first of all, to install the charging slots for the daily daylight of the super soldiers, a total of ten charging slots were removed from the headquarters base, and the remaining thirty were left for the sixty-five soldiers stationed at the base - considering that there are about 2,000 ordinary people at the headquarters base, these people need to maintain order and provide food regularly, and these tasks need to rely on super soldiers to complete, so the final quota for super soldiers on board is only thirty-five, while the number of super-soldiers stationed at the main base in Washington was sixty-five.
The leader of the super soldiers is naturally a wolf.
This time he brought almost half of the first super soldiers on board.
The rest of the ones that were left behind were also reluctant to stay.
This surprised the gods, because in this case, even the vast majority of super soldiers were reluctant to leave at this time - although staying at the base headquarters at this time was not a good choice, because of the food supply and the question of how long the insulation system would last, it was not known how long the survivors would survive. But the higher-ups at base headquarters are already thinking about the future: they want to be able to build a new home on the glacial ocean, or to find a sustainable way to survive in a post-apocalyptic environment.
It's an encouraging idea to be announced.
It's better than making people feel like they're just waiting to die day by day.
Therefore, many super soldiers have a glimmer of hope for this almost ethereal "future", but the ship is different, because the departure time is imminent, and the energy supply system is not necessarily stable, so even if the super soldier gets on the ship, he may directly follow the ship halfway and die directly on the road.
As a result, the willingness of the first super soldiers to follow the wolf is largely due to the man's leadership ability.
"Because of the two suicide notes you brought back from the institute, he dutifully returned them to the hands of the soldiers' families - the hands of the ice sculptures," Enochhe pouted, "This move has won the hearts of many people, and has also made a considerable number of people believe that even if they die on the road to make great contributions to mankind, their boss will bring back their last words to the family members who remain at the headquarters." β
Fu Shen thought for a while and commented: "The sour taste is sky-high." β
Enoch: "At such a time, I still pay attention to human feelings, and I pity why Munin should follow such a boring behavior." β
The cocoon god was stunned: "Yes, why did you let the crow stalk the wolf?" β
Enochie: "......"
Cocoon: "Why?" β
Enoche: "Where do you have so many questions?" β
After the quota of super soldiers is determined, all that remains is the quota of scientific researchers.
In the eyes of most scientific researchers, getting on board = dedication to the cause of human science = death.
So since the registration time opened, there were very few people in that office, and in the end, even the staff in charge of registration didn't go there and sat and waited, and directly pasted a note on the door that "I signed up to find it in the staff lounge" and disappeared without a trace......
However, India is a little close to the big β‘β‘, counting on whether they can turn the ship around and send them back to China by the way, and Zhao Heng and Yucheng, who are indeed alone in the United States, sign up directly without worry, and the rest is an ancient biology and geological researcher whose wife and daughter lost contact with each other at the first time when the ice hit.
Because the super soldiers don't need to eat, there are only three representatives of scientific researchers on the ship in the end (strictly speaking, Yucheng and Zhao Heng are not scientific researchers, after all, there are no so-called scientific researchers in the world who have not graduated from junior high school and do not know each other), so of course, the food on the ship is also distributed to a pitiful little - the food dug up from the supermarket is frozen because of the strict zhΓ²ng, and the storage period after thawing is not long, and the headquarters has generously piled up all these things on the ship with a stroke of a pen, When Fushen helped the staff carry boxes of things that he usually regarded as garbage snacks onto the boat, he saw that in the storage warehouse, Yucheng was shivering and eating ice cream wrapped in a cotton jacket.
Fu Shen: "?????????? What the heck? β
Yucheng: "Lao Zhao said, keep the calories high - grass your father, Lao Tzu is about to become a polar bear, and you have to eat ice cream to maintain body heat!" It's so cold that my brain hurts, do you say Lao Zhao is cheating on me! β
As he spoke, he was convinced to shove a mouthful of ice cream into his mouth.
Fu Shen put down the box in his hand and patted Yucheng on the shoulder with emotion.
When I got off the boat, I saw Chubby standing on the deck and grinning: "I brought the ice cream back." β
Fushen: "What are you bringing this thing back for?" β
Xiaopang continued to smile: "I want to eat, I can eat openly, and I haven't wasted any food as a super soldier without ordinary people, how good!" β
Cocoon: "......"
The fifth day of green crystal blasting and freezing was a good day.
There was no snow or rain, just a freezing wind, and the hunting did not occur for the fourth time, indicating that the weather would not go in a stranger direction - at this point, the base soaking process was stopped on the second floor, and the higher-ups decided to immediately start working on the drainage, trying to reclaim more usable indoor space, and the sad faces of the people had a rare smile on this day.
Human beings are like this for the surrounding environment, on weekdays, they may curse the government for the next heavy snow that obstructs traffic in winter, but now that the whole city is frozen in ice and soaked in water, and the same kind are almost dead, even if the bad situation does not continue to be bad, they will feel gratified.
At the same time, on this day, the list of people who needed to go east to India was prepared.
After the energy tank was installed, and there were still two days before departure, the engineers began to work on the ship's own generators - these generators had been completely frozen to death in the previous wind and rain, along with the hull engine, first had to be thawed by the super soldier with energy to ensure that it was functioning properly, and then reinforced with three layers of the original insulation equipment - but even in this case, it was necessary to use the super soldier's ability to thaw from time to time.
The cocoon god thought of the bottle of drink that the wolf gave him: "Who came up with this way of thawing with energy?" β
Yucheng: "Zhao Heng." β
Cocoon: "How did you find out?" β
Yucheng: "One day, he suddenly thought: Why are super soldiers not afraid of freezing? It's not right to say that they are planted, you see that these real plants are frozen to death - so to get back to the most essential problem, the reason why super soldiers are super soldiers is because they have energy that ordinary people don't have, and if these energies can provide them with heat, then it should work by releasing them. β
Fu Shen: "Reasonable. β
Yucheng: "Awesome, right?" β
Cocoon: "Awesome." β
Yucheng: "Lied to you, in fact, because in the process of digging the boat, some soldiers found that the ice surface layer after excavation showed signs of melting, and it was discovered that it had nothing to do with Zhao Heng's half a dime." β
Cocoon: "......"
Yucheng: "Hahahaha! β
Yucheng is an optimist, and in the long end times of the last days spent in suppressed despair every day, it is good to have such a person by his side to regulate his feelings - but this does not mean that Zhao Heng sometimes wants to beat him to death is vexatious.
β¦β¦
On the sixth day of the freezing disaster, the Crusade team boarded the ship and prepared to set off.
In the early morning of the sixth day, the ship left the base headquarters to the enthusiastic cheers of more than 2,000 ordinary people and scientific research personnel upstairs, as well as the high-level officials of the base headquarters -- applause from the upper floors resounded in the sky, some people waved American flags, others sang the American national anthem loudly, and the super soldiers standing upstairs saluted and waved to these great sacrifices on board who shouldered the future of mankind.
The people on deck also waved and smiled at them.
The scene was harmonious, and how many people burst into tears because of this-
Yucheng waved and smiled as he squeezed out a few words from the corners of his lips: "However, they forgot about it, there are citizens of other countries on board." β
"Citizens of other countries who account for less than one-tenth of the total population." The god said.
The ship left ABP and came to Washington Streetβ
This is the first time that the god of the city has taken a serious look at the city after the ice and snow disaster: the bustling and developed world center seems to have disappeared without a trace, and the high-rise buildings are hidden under thick ice and snow, and the high-rise buildings are dark and unlit, because the people who can survive have been sent to the base headquarters by the super soldiers; With no street in sight, the hull of the ship floated on a mixture of ice-water up to β‘β‘ meters deep, and occasionally hit something with a soft "crunch" sound, and the god looked down and could only see a black metal object floating on the water.
It seems to be a traffic light, and it seems that this was once an intersection before.
However, the good thing about the ice is that he also can't see the corpses of the humans who have not had time to escape from the ice that have been frozen under the ice forever.
When the ship sailed far away, the sound of singing in his ears became smaller and smaller, and the distant cocoon could only faintly hear the sound of cheering and applause in the headquarters standing in the middle of the ocean. So happy, why didn't I see them positive when I signed up? β
"There's a lot of bad news these days, and it's hard to make some substantive moves, although I don't know if it's meaningful, but it's good to be happy."
Yucheng stood next to the god in a padded jacket and watched the excitement - but after only a few moments, he was frozen and yelled to go back to the lounge.
The god had no choice but to turn around and follow him back to the lounge, walking on the creaking deck he still had a wonderful feeling, and it was hard to believe that he would spend the next many days on this ship, until the ship made its way to India.
"What do you want, come on!" Yucheng, who was walking in front, didn't hear the footsteps of keeping up, and inexplicably turned back to greet the god of cocoon.
Fu Shen was stunned, then let out an "oh" and quickly followed.
He never thought he would have a chance to leave the country and move closer to his homeland.
Even if I just learned that I was just a program, but at this moment, the heart beating in my chest with anticipation is strong, and for the cocoon god, there is probably nothing more worth looking forward to at the moment.
