Chapter 5: The End of the Earth

As long as the fairing with plant fiber as the only material is removed, the Huoyi Ecological Boat looks like an ordinary yacht from the outside. Even if its white figure were captured by an artificial satellite in low-Earth orbit, people would not delve into its attempts to sail in the Pacific Ocean, but would only wonder why people who were not afraid of death would dare to leave land and burrow into the sea at such a special time, and it would certainly not be a warship, but only a civilian ship.

Luckily, the Hoiren has not been harassed in any way, despite putting away the multi-purpose cover several times. Wedel's reasoning was correct, as long as he didn't sail out of the open sea, Haisong wouldn't be in trouble.

Success has left the Fire Man to carry out his mission, indicating that there is not much time left for the Earth to escape, and Haige must act as soon as possible.

After eating breakfast, he hurried onto the fourth deck and instructed the AI system to roll up the fairing of the enclosed eco-boat.

When the Pacific Ocean appeared in front of him, Hai Ge suddenly felt like he was on a merry-go-round, and the ups and downs confused his judgment, and he actually imagined that the simulated earth on the ship was real, and he walked from the real world to the illusion that did not exist in reality.

The night of the sea is really dark. It seems that it intends to compete with the sunlight that has taken root in the southern hemisphere, and the dark night in the northern hemisphere is not to be outdone and penetrates every inch of air, but the darkness seems to produce weight, constantly squeezing and precipitating downward from the air, so the sea water is thick into ink, if it weren't for the fact that the sea water on the sea fish caught by the AI system is transparent, Hai Ge would really think that the ship is sailing in thick ink.

In fact, the further you go in the northern hemisphere, the longer the daylight should last, but the catastrophe caused by the solar anomaly breaks the old rules of the earth, and the polar day phenomenon in the North Pole appears in the South Pole, provided that the South Pole still exists, of course. The polar night phenomenon in the South Pole is forever stuck in the North Pole, and the North and South Poles exchange their own unique characteristics.

It was cold outside the ship, and with the help of the light from the cabin, Hai Ge could see the white air he exhaled out. Despite wearing a cotton coat, he wrapped himself in a cloak made of thick lattice sheets, leaned against the cold railing of the four-story porch, and silently looked into the distance.

The cold air drilled into his nose, and he felt as if he had been covered with a large black cloth over his head, so that he could not see anything, and he could not even breathe easily. If it weren't for the propeller propellers pushing the waves out of the bottom of the boat when the boat was moving slowly, and the white lights on the side of the boat dyeing the crests of the waves dark silver, he would not have felt the sky above his head and the sea under his feet.

"If we continue to move towards the northern poles, there is a good chance that the Phoi will hit the ice drifting from the Arctic Ocean, right? So it had to stop, stop the engines, set up the booster launch pad according to the instructions in the navigation manual, and wait for the notification of success. ”

Thinking so, Hai Ge subconsciously touched his pocket, which contained a small double-sided display communicator. That's the only tool he can connect with success.

No matter how far you look, it's a boundless darkness, and you can't see it until you climb up to the watchtower and spread out the charts with floor-to-ceiling glass that replaces the telescope. Anyway, it's the same when you open your eyes and close your eyes, and you can still faintly see the light when you close your eyes, so Haige simply closes her eyes and imagines the beauty of the sunrise or sunset on the earth in her mind. Now that you're out of the sealed environment, it's time to find a little bit of realism that doesn't exist in the artificial earth ecosystem.

Based on the logbook, it is now close to the end of July 2199. If the moon were still alive, it would have risen in the west and set just in time to coincide with the early morning sun.

I remember when I was a child living in a wolf's den, I had to get up before dawn every day to work, so there was always a chance to see the sunrise.

In those difficult days, the dawn at the end of the month fascinated him the most—the night was as cold and arrogant as an ice giant condensed in ink, and its ubiquitous body was no match for a faint ray of soft light. The soft light came from the sun, and she teased the ice giant's chest with her warm fingertips, easily piercing his heart before bursting with light. The night died instantly, the torso shattered and melted away, and the sun was satisfied with its true glory......

At that time, his eyes were filled with reverence when he looked to the east, like a saint watching angels fly out of heaven and spread the light of hope to the earth.

But now, Hai Ge can no longer look forward to the solemn moment that he once revered, and Wedel said that according to the calculation of the Gregorian calendar year, in August 2199, the solar helium flash will erupt, and the huge force generated by the explosion will violently bombard the earth. If the Earth does not successfully leave the solar system by August, it will be lost in the Big Bang and reduced to a dead star that will no longer find any sign of life, not even a plant.

"Hey~"

Haige sighed and left the railing and walked down the bridge porch into the cockpit, where he wanted to observe the advancement of the stern thrusters. Along the way, he trembled, and from time to time his eyes cast his eyes on the southeast sky, but he did not dare to look blatantly, as if someone was really spying on him.

Fortunately, until I pushed open the double-glazed door of the cockpit and walked in, I didn't find a white point of light flying inexplicably and bursting out of blinding light, the steering wheel was firmly maintained at the angle it was placed yesterday, and the navigation display only showed a few necessary simple data, waiting for the owner to activate it with a password.

"Never leave the high seas!"

Hai Ge muttered and repeated the words in the dream, unconsciously wiping his forehead with one hand, and actually wiped a handful of wet cold sweat.

In fact, that sentence came neither from a dream nor an aphorism he had written for himself, but from Wedel.

Rumble!

Boom!

There were several muffled noises in succession, as if they had come from the bottom of the ocean in the distant sea, and they had dived for a long distance like a shark before they were transmitted to the Hoiren.

Hai Ge knew that the sound was actually coming from land, but it was a land very far away from him, to be exact, it was the Arctic polar region. The war there has been going on for almost a decade, and it is still in full swing, and the only way to end it is to destroy the planet.

The first time he heard the fierce gunfire, Haige's heart jumped suddenly, and he felt that those laser shells and even missiles were about to hit his Huoyi soon. Fortunately, there was success by his side to comfort him, and he kept telling him to calculate the distance according to the speed of the voice, and it was impossible for a war on land to affect the sea area where they were, and he gradually reassured.

Ten years later, he was indifferent to the dull loud noise, and every time he heard it, it was just a summer thunderstorm, and the thunder stopped when the rain clouds drifted away, and who would care too much about a few thunders?
