"When the Northern Hemisphere was reduced to hell by the solar cataclysm, those in power were like birds of terror," Wedel said. When the Arctic continent was plunged into continuous wars, they not only completely blocked the airspace and sea areas, but also closed down many space stations built by various countries in space. The rest, together with the satellites still orbiting the Earth, pose no threat to me. ”

When he said this, his face was grim. Haige couldn't tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for the earthlings to shut down the space station and reduce the number of satellites in operation without alarming the sun.

"Alright, let's take a look at Mornington Island now." After talking about the Lahari and the Desert Workshop, Wedel turned his chart perspective to what they needed most.

It is a beautiful island with large vineyards and a unique lavender maze, where red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes was once popular all over the world, and of course hot springs are also one of its specialties.

The once beautiful scenery is easily erased by the waters of the Indian Ocean, as easily as a chalkboard erases chalk letters. What's even more ridiculous is that after only two years, the tide has dried up, revealing the original landform. Unfortunately, the island no longer has a sense of beauty, and it has become a relic of old memories.

Instead of taking time to mourn the vanished vineyards and lavender labyrinth, Wedel pointed his finger at the ruins of a few boulders.

"It's called Cape Schanck Light Station, and I want to call it the Cape Lighthouse, which makes it easier for you to understand. This place was chosen as the starting port for the yacht Huoyi because it is close to my shipbuilding workshop, and it only takes about six hours to drive a construction truck with a top speed of 80 kilometers per hour, which greatly reduces the risk of being detected by Earth satellites. The Cape Lighthouse is also a promontory surrounded by land on three sides, and it is generally not affected by the bad weather at sea, so it can be said that it is foolproof to hide the Hoiren there. In addition, the island is located in the south of Australia, directly adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, and can sail close to the target sea when it sets sail, avoiding the dry Indian Ocean. As far as the current state of the earth's world is concerned, the Indian Ocean is dead, and the oceans that still have abundant water are the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean. ”

"Are the waters of other oceans gradually being steamed dry?" Haige asked worriedly.

"Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened." Wedell replied regretfully. "But the good thing is that the water vapor that evaporates from the seabed doesn't immediately burrow into the atmosphere and drift away from the Earth, and the closer they get to the North Pole, the more likely they are to encounter cold currents over the ocean, and when they meet, the water vapor recondenses into water droplets, which in turn raises the sea level of the other three oceans." The Earth is dying, dying, but it's our last chance. The higher the sea level, the better it is for the spacecraft to set sail, which is why I have repeatedly stressed that we must hurry. ”

"Yes sir, I'll do my best to speed things up!" Haige assured Wedel, but it was not clear whether the "speed" meant starting the voyage in the Pacific Ocean as soon as possible or speeding it up. Dazed on his promises, he just wanted to reassure Wedel.

Wedell understood what he meant and nodded gratefully.

"After driving the boat out of Mornington Island, you have to turn the rudder to the right to avoid the waters where Indonesia used to be. Despite the fact that the land in the area is a barren wasteland, it is possible for satellites to capture the frequency of electromagnetic waves emitted by the Hoiren as it sails. If you can bypass the Solomon Islands and head south to the Marshall Islands at 165 degrees east longitude, you will be on the high seas and will not be detected by any human satellites. ”

When Wedell made this remark, the yacht was indeed making its way around the Marshall Islands.

"So when the real Huoyi spacecraft takes off, will the rocket boost point also be in the ocean?" Haige asked.

"Not bad. The light rocket booster hangs right at the bottom of the yacht, and the ocean currents are indispensable for it to propel the spacecraft into the air. Unfortunately, due to the stagnation of the earth, there are no four seasons on the earth's surface, and it is difficult for the wind-sea currents that used to occur according to the seasons to form momentum again, so we can only wait for the density flow or compensation flow to help.

"What kind of currents are these two?" Haige asked puzzled.

"The salinity and temperature of the sea in different seas vary in the density of the sea, which leads to changes in the water level," Weedel replied. When a change occurs, the sea surface between the two seas is sloping, and the water flowing on the sloping plane forms a density flow. As for the compensating current, it refers to the fact that when the seawater in a certain sea area decreases, the adjacent sea area replenishes it, and the ocean current formed in this way is called a compensating current. Of the four oceans on Earth, the Pacific Ocean has the highest density of seawater, and the movement of the crust is altered by solar activity, which carries this influence into the ocean. The density of the sea has changed dramatically, and the tilt of the sea level has reversed, making it difficult to predict the direction of ocean currents. You must use a current gauge mounted on the Hoiren to accurately determine when the new currents will appear, where they will be, and what they will do. I know it's a hard lesson for you, but you have to get it done as soon as possible. If you want the Hoi to break through the atmosphere and enter space orbit from the right angle, you must set sail at the height of the currents! ”

It's a huge task and a huge challenge! Hai Ge's brain exploded, and there seemed to be a "pop" sound in the atrium. He could only force his composure and whispered to himself, "You can do it!" ”

He no longer looked at the charts, but at the endless sea. At this time, the weather on the sea is set by Wedel according to his own preferences, and the beautiful atmosphere of the sea and the sky meeting and the tranquility and distance can calm any restless heart.

He imagined the bad weather he might encounter when he actually left the land and let the Fire Man follow the waves of the waves. The climate has changed, and the temper of the sea must be more unpredictable. At that time, there was no daylight on the sea near the Arctic Ocean, and whether the sea at night was as gentle as ever, or whether it was viciously devouring the sky, he had to show enough fighting spirit to deal with it.

Thinking of the future, Haige would love to call himself the Son of Heaven, and by borrowing from the sky, he will be able to overcome any storm and waves.

After the most important part was finished, Wedel gasped slightly and walked out of the watchtower with Haige. Instead of taking the elevator, the two of them returned to the relaxation area along the beautiful metal spiral staircase, each found a soft sofa to sit down, and lazily rested their legs on the coffee table, enjoying the caress of the warm sun.
