Chapter 125: The Devil's Child

Endeavour ...... You still haven't found oil? ”

"Yes. Hey, if you count the efforts of our colleagues on land, that's almost enough for the hundredth survey. We are more unfortunate than you were lucky enough to escape the storm. ”

"What's so unfortunate about this? You're not just in the business of oil exploration. The captain of the Minsheng, who was chatting on the radio here, seemed very relaxed at this time, probably because he had successfully left the threat, "Besides, what is such a storm with little impact?" Compared to the Bay of Biscay, the North Sea, and the North Pacific, this is nothing, right? ”

On the calm sea outside the area of low pressure, two ships are moving in the same direction. There is a more conventional, sea gray paint is a comprehensive work ship type liberation ship Endeavor Endeavour, while the Victoria paint, which looks more normal in terms of appearance, is a mixed passenger and cargo type liberation ship, Minsheng.

"There is oil and gas in the North Sea that can keep Britain alive, but there is none. That's the greatest misfortune. ”

At this stage, the most needed for the development of another world is oil resources. Even if it is highly volatile and difficult to process, it is 10 times better than sending it from the other side of the portal from heavy oil, diesel, and gasoline in separate categories and little by little -- the Chinese side no longer wants the oil produced in another world to feed back to the country.

From the possible trap layer on land to the sea area where Endeavour has been operating for a few days, it is either a frustrating deep groundwater gushing out after the test well is laid, or it is a simple and straightforward oil-free reaction.

"As far as I know," the captain complained, saying that the lack of oil in Elta meant that the ships under his command would continue to use boilers and steam turbines that burned anthracite coal produced in Elta, rather than diesel engines, which were easy to manage. "The domestic side has already revised its development plan three times in a row because there is no oil output, right?"

"That's it." Although the captain of the Endeavour is a peer on the other side of the microphone, he belongs to a different department after all, and the information he knows is slightly different. "Elta has a lot of land, that's true. Steel, tungsten. Copper, nitric acid caps, the resources needed to build a primary industrial system, everything is available here. But it's oil, there's no here. The helicopters on my ship are now also using jet fuel from Earth. ”

"It is said that the latest development plan above is to use Elta's grain to make synthetic fuels, which can be used at the use level and in industry?"

The development plan hasn't been made public, but it's after Elta's New Year. But now it is not a violation to make it public, let's put it this way, the time limit is about five years, and the synthetic fuel produced by Elta will be used in the domestic new energy transition period. ”

At this time, the captains of the two ships are not just talking at night in the middle of a new moon and a full moon. Dizzy and unconscious passengers during the day and the first half of the night finally began to move in the second half of the night.

"Kiria, tell me about it. Shall we continue now? The action to seize the ship. ”

After a day and a night of torture, Commander Borifezno and his fifteen elites had become exhausted. He was quiet but couldn't sleep, but now he finally broke free from the quagmire of enjoyment in another world and returned to himself a little. The next step is to ask yourself what you should do next.

Faced with the question of what was now comparable to the three major questions of philosophy, the magician Kiria replied wearily and truthfully: "Now, we have not been able to make even the slightest progress on this ship in a single day. You can feel the enjoyment of people from another world. It makes us look forward to tomorrow under their control, not makes us miss our homeland. Are you listening, Chief Borifezno? ”

"Yes, I'm listening."

"Ask yourself, Chief Borifezno. Do you prefer to fall into the so-called quagmire of people from another world, to sink into a new kind of eating, drinking, and enjoyment, at the cost of paying for your own labor like those poor people, and being drained of your existence day after day? ”

"It's tempting enough." Borifezno was silent for a moment before answering, "But that's just an illusion, isn't it?" Only the Bi-Moon Church, led by the Lord God of this world, is the right path in this world. They have a responsibility to lead us, and we have an obligation to obey them. What is a person from another world? It's just a momentary powerhouse! As long as the true God returns......"

"The problem now is not something you can convince yourself of." Magician Kiria said to the essence, "At this time, even if I am willing, the other fourteen brothers have already tasted the sweetness of the other world, will they be as determined as you?" ”

"You, for example, are swinging." Bori Fitzno patted the soldier who was also unable to sleep at this time, and said the soldier sitting in front of the radiator. "Don't hesitate to tell me what you really think at this time. Don't lie to me. ”

"Yes!" The soldier was suddenly poked in the soft underbelly by the question, and replied inarticulately, "I'm swinging, I want to live in Eltagour, but I want to see my parents even more!" They may have worried about me for more than half a year, thinking that I had died in that war, and even wept dry their tears over it...... I'm already regretting it now, a few days ago, I, why didn't I surrender to the Eltas, maybe these few days, will my parents have suffered from this? …… Every night before, and tonight, I've thought so. ”

Borifezno was stunned on the bed board when he heard this. He had expected to get the opposite answerβ€”for he had no idea that the soldier who could not afford to buy movie tickets and extra food here would have thought nothing like he, an officer who had the right to eat and drink more from other worlds.

"Even if we get to the Elta continent, we won't be able to enjoy extra portions every day like you, sir." The soldier complained, "Rather than that, I would like to return to my hometown and live a peaceful life as before." This is our nightmare, and it is no place for us to live in peace. Sir, give the order......"

"It's the same for me." Borifezno automatically blocked the soldier's complaints about the different classes of the sixteen, "I prefer my hometown to the enjoyment here." But now, shouldn't we first understand the ...... on this ship?"

"Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, maybe you won't say that to the chief who has the money to spend in front of people from another world." The soldier shivered with his back against the radiator, "It can't be delayed any longer." Chief Borifezno. If you want to act, isn't it the best time to be calm late at night? Everyone is sleeping peacefully, and if we go off the alarm, the crew will think it's just a storm......"

Borifezno was silent. He had thought that the crew were weaker than he was, and more addicted to Elta's, the food and radiators provided by the otherworldly people, the warm bedding. But this was clearly not the case - when he had just had the idea of making a move, the soldier's fighting spirit had almost overflowed, which caught him a little off guard.

"Let's act!"

"Let's do it! For the sake of the hometown! ”

"Let's act, sir, for revenge, for the sake of my hometown!"

"Act, sir! We are tired of being embarrassed in front of people from another world. Such a nice palace on the sea, we also want to be its masters and enjoy everything it has to the fullest! ”

"It's a pity that we can't contact the boatmen at sea now." At this time, Borifezno became the most shaken corner, "Even so, should we continue?" ”

"Then threaten the people of the other world and use their people as meat tickets!" The soldier who had just been questioned had already led the atmosphere in the room to a climax at this time, "The people of the other world are willing to slaughter the whole family of the Elta nobles who have handled the slaves of the people of the other world with the means of 'hanging street lamps' because of the small price of dozens of people, for the safety of these dozen people and dozens of crew members, this ship ...... It's nothing, is it? ”

Alert?

The captain of the Minsheng, who was munching on the pressure cooker fried dumplings, opened their mouths and shouted together. The blazing sirens did echo across the bridge and foredeck.

"Engine room! Is it normal? The captain's first thought was the most important engine room of the whole ship, and he grabbed the microphone and yelled at the engine room, "Is the boiler pressure, the pressure of each pipe, normal?" ”

"Emergency treatment is underway, the boiler has stopped adding fuel - the rest of the coal is already being enclosed in the coal tank, the bridge, do you know where the alarm is?"

"Captain, the Endeavour replied, and there was no obvious fire on the starboard side."

"Ask them to move to port side, and we'll reduce the speed of the boat to 5 knots, which is the wind speed at this time! Next, "the captain grinned at the microphone and cursed the unsettling voyage, "issue a ship-wide emergency notice for all passengers to take refuge on the upper deck, and the damage management team is in place!" ”

"Does that mean someone on the Minsheng triggered the siren?" The captain of the Endeavour steered the steering wheel to speed up into the wake of the Minsheng, "True hope is a false alarm." Put the deck of the transport boat and the command post of the carrier-based aircraft in place. In case of...... I mean, in the unlikely event that our fishery survey vessel, the offshore oil survey vessel, and the Integrated Oceanographic Research Institute will be responsible for the role of a lifeboat. It's not an easy thing to do. ”

"Don't give the order." The correspondent of the Endeavour took off his headphones and turned around to correct, "The black area over there just sent a message, hoping that our ship will immediately send a helicopter to pick up the VIP in charge of their black area." It's just that they didn't say exactly what kind of VIP it was. ”

"Things are getting interesting?" The captain of the Endeavour whistled as he steered the steering wheel, "As long as there is no problem with the communication code in the black zone, then do it." ”
