April 11, 1145 of the New Age:

I finally applied for the Exploration Route, and of course, I was not surprised by the results......

Tanzantrez is a place rich in mechanical alchemists, with a strong scientific research atmosphere, but it lacks the adventurous spirit that an island nation should have, resulting in the fact that it has been more than three months since the bounty was issued, but there has been no corresponding call for nobles in the country.

As a member of the Archipelago Alliance, it seems a little uncooperative not to send a weighty nobleman to participate in this matter, so at that time I smelled the smell of opportunity, the weighty nobles don't want to participate in this kind of adventure, but the empire must give the alliance a face, in this country, it seems to be a bit weighty, in fact, it doesn't matter, who else can there be except for himself, a guy who has royal blood but is excluded?

May 7:

Although I had been preparing for it three months earlier, I still had little time, and through various persuasions and having exhausted all my belongings, I finally got to the two large ships with advanced equipment, the Victory and the Triumph, and gathered enough supplies.

Of course, the sacrifice was great, everything that could be sold at home was sold, the collectibles, the shares of the tobacco company, the fields of Sicili, including some of my most profitable shops, I left almost nothing for my wife and children, like a gambler who gave everything to me, but I believe that I will succeed, and this is a necessary setback for her to become a duchess, and I will not forget my wife's dedication to me, including her going to accompany that disgusting seafood merchant for me!

Oh my God, that squid-smelling guy, Yatina has paid too much.....

May 10:

After employing enough men, my two ships were finally ready to set sail, and I hesitated for a long time on the day of departure, and even discussed with Jetina for a moment to let her sail with me, but she said that she could not let the children take risks, and decided to stay and raise the two children for me.....

I guess I must have saved the world in my last life, otherwise how could I have married such a good wife? I swear that when I return rich, I will compensate her for her grievances a hundredfold and a thousandfold....

..........

When they saw this, a group of people looked weird, especially the dog, and pointed directly to the virtual screen and said: "This dogan knew that he was a dick, but I didn't expect that even his daughter-in-law would be sold, and this kind of shameful thing still dares to be recorded in the diary?" ”

Everyone nodded their heads one after another.....

Lei Xue sighed and looked at everyone, the heart of gossip in this world can really cancel out all terrifying things, and now you are in this situation, you are still interested in caring about whether others sell their wives or not....

He then ignored the congregation and continued to read the rest of the contents.....

Most of the content in the back is some boring daily life at sea, and this guy's thoughts about his family, Lei Xue frowned and quickly flipped through it, and finally saw what he wanted to see in January of the following year.

January 1, 1146:

This day was originally the recovery festival of Tansanterez, which started as an agriculture, and Tanzantreiz attached great importance to this spring revival festival, in order to keep the crew in mind, I decided to hold a celebration to raise morale, and I wish the new year a new beginning....

The celebration was scheduled for twelve o'clock at noon, and we were ready to party all day to vent the boring days at sea, of course, first of all, we had to let people clean up the and urine on the deck, which affected the atmosphere a little, and there was no way at all, only the captain and Da Da could have a separate toilet on board, and everyone else could only solve it on the deck.

In order to be lively, the celebration was set on the wider deck of the Triumph, and I took out the sausages and my wine from the ship, and tried to make it as good as possible since it was a celebration.

As a result, as soon as we arrived on the Triumph, someone reported a large amount of ice floes ahead.....

This news immediately extinguished my enthusiasm for the banquet.....

January 2:

We walked around the ice floe for almost a whole day, but the size of the ice was simply beyond my imagination, giving it a feeling of infinity, and we couldn't get around it until dark....

At that time, I even had the illusion that we were going in the wrong direction, this is the east side, not the north and south poles, right?

How is it possible to have such a large ice floe area?

Finally I knew we couldn't go on like this, because we were getting farther and farther away from the predicted course, and it would take me an unknown amount of time to get back to that course.

And I have been adrift at sea for more than half a year, considering that there is still at least half a year to predict the distance, the materials will be a little tight if you detour, which also includes not encountering other special circumstances.

So I proposed to go straight through this ice floe!

After this proposal was put forward, it was opposed by a large number of people, among which the most opposed voice was the captain of the Triumph, who thought that it was too risky, this large ice floe was very difficult to cross, and once the propeller was crushed by the ice jam, it was very likely that the shipbuilding main engine power system would be damaged, which was not the worst, if the temperature inside continued to drop, the ice floe domain became a solid ice domain, they would be trapped inside, and at that time it would really be called heaven and earth!

I scoffed at his statement, that sailing is a risky business, and that everything is safe and secure, how can it be done? If His Royal Highness the Prince, who he supported before, could listen to his decisive wave, maybe there would be a wave of opportunities to fight for it, instead of waiting there to die slowly....

After several arguments, they were not convinced by each other, but they were the supreme commander of the ship, and theoretically they could make a decision directly, and finally Sean (the captain of the Triumph) proposed that the troops be divided into two ways, with the Triumph, which has strong ice-breaking ability, is responsible for crossing the ice, and the Victory, which has strong power, continues to circumnavigate!

This will keep at least one ship safe!

I was initially opposed to this proposal, but this is obviously Sean's final bottom line, although I am his commander, but I am a down-and-out royal family, and my prestige among sailors is obviously not as good as Sean, who has many years of sailing experience!

Eventually, I accepted his offer, but with a slight modification.

His suggestion was that he lead the Triumph in an attempt to cross the ice, and that I lead the Triumph on a more secure detour.

What seemed like a loyal decision made me smell of conspiracy, and I thought to myself: What if this ice field wasn't as serious as the other party said?

He easily traveled through the past, arrived in the Eastern Continent one step ahead of himself, and after obtaining information and opportunities, maybe all the credit would go to him, wouldn't he pay so much to make a wedding dress for others?

Of course, it is not permissible to let himself take risks and let him turn around and operate the Victory, because once the ice field is really so dangerous, the Triumph cannot get out of it, and all his efforts must belong to him.

After much consideration, I decided to venture with Sean on the Triumph into the ice, and let my trusted lieutenant Polly serve as the captain of the Victory, telling him that if he didn't get out of the ice, he would remember to take care of his wife and daughter when he returned....

So, on that day, I carried more than half of my supplies aboard the Triumph, and from tomorrow I will enter the ice field, hoping that the god of the sea will bless me and return safely, and my family is still waiting for my triumphant return.....
