Due to the appearance of three suns in the sky, the sky became a little dazzling, and people had to squint their eyes when they looked up.

"Let's climb up and have a look." Boris said, grabbing the rope dangling in the air.

One end of the rope was in Petru's hand. He tugged back and said, "Okay, but I'm heavy, you have to help me hold the other end, don't let go!" ”

"Don't worry, although it doesn't please you, a Slavic warrior will never stab a person in the back! And, we're fighting now for all of humanity, aren't we? Boris said as he tugged the rope.

Perhaps the strength of the two of them was too great, and suddenly they heard a click, and the rope suddenly lengthened, and both of them sat down on their butts, almost overturning the dinghy.

"Can't you fucking be careful?" Petru scolded.

"I didn't know this ship would be so sturdy!" Boris said.

The pillars and railings on the ship were crooked, but the rope was still firmly attached to it and did not fall.

Petru grabbed the rope and pulled it a few more times, but this time it didn't move at all, and it looked very solid.

"Hold on, in case I fall, you'd better catch me." When he had finished speaking, he climbed up like a nimble ape, climbed the side of the ship, rolled over the railing, and then tied the rope in a knot with the railing that was intact beside it, and turned back and said, "You can come up!" ”

"Sure enough, it's a fucking pirate!"

Boris weighed his skills, and he couldn't compare with climbing alone, so he felt a little resentful, but when he thought that this was a robber skill, and he didn't know how many freighters he had climbed to practice, his heart was balanced again, and even a little disdainful.

He motioned to Ivan with his eyes and told him to go first. Ivan looked at Situ and Aoki and asked, "Which of you goes up first?" ”

Situ and Aoki glanced at each other, did not speak, and walked over at the same time, grabbing a rope by one with a tacit understanding. Boris obediently got out of the way, only to see the two of them leap up almost at the same time, pedaling on the plank of the boat, like a tanuki, and in a few strokes they jumped up, leaving only two ropes dangling in the air.

Boris was stunned for a moment and muttered, "These are all pirates, right?!" ”

He shook his head, slightly depressed. Ivan came over and patted him on the shoulder and said: "We are submariners, and the bottom of the sea is our strong point." ”

Boris felt that he had a point, and his mood was slightly better.

Ivan looked at Anderson, who was unable to climb the rope because of a leg injury, and said, "Go up, I'll stay here with some ladies." ”

Su Huilan could have gone up, but Lady Larry and Alice couldn't climb up, and she didn't want to do it, thinking it would be better to stay here. And she also felt that Anderson's performance just now was a bit abnormal, although she couldn't tell what was wrong, but it was always right to guard against it. Aoki is a person who doesn't bother to think about anything, but she's not, she's always observing and thinking about the recent changes.

Ivan said, "You can stay, and if something happens, you can also deal with it." Let's go up and see if we can open the dock compartment or lower the gangway. ”

After saying that, he and Boris also climbed up.

There was indeed no one on the warship, everything looked new, but the surface was covered with a layer of powdery stuff that would fall off when one touched it, leaving traces. It's the same on deck, where stepping on it is like stepping on a fine thin sand, leaving clear footprints.

From the deck to the cabin, there were no obstacles along the way, and there were no human figures in sight. All the hatches were open, but there was no dampness in the room, but rather a dry cave.

It wasn't until they entered the command room that they saw a man in a navy uniform sitting in a chair in front of the window facing the bow of the ship.

There is no stain on the glass of the window of the command room, but you can hardly describe it as clean, because it looks less transparent, you can't see the outside world clearly through it, like the kind of fogged glass used in the bathroom, but everyone knows that no ship will use fogged glass in the wheelhouse, let alone a warship.

Although the vision is blurred, the sunlight still shines in and illuminates the interior clearly.

The man sat in a chair, and those who entered through the hatch could only see behind his side. His body rested on the back of the chair, his hands resting on his laps, natural and comfortable, as if he was looking at the sparkling waves of the sea through the glass in front of him.

"Hello, excuse me!" Petru, who went first, said.

The man didn't move, and he didn't reply.

In fact, this is to be expected. Because the crows had already come to investigate, everyone was prepared that there were no living people on board. However, even if there are corpses all over the ground, it is expected, and suddenly seeing such a person in a military uniform sitting on a chair who does not know whether he is alive or dead, the atmosphere is a little weird.

Petru and Boris walked over first, followed by Situ and Aoki, and Ivan warily broke off. When he walked up to the man, he was startled by what he saw, even though it was all bold and daring.

Beneath the clean white military hat was a pale, emaciated, wrinkled face. The muscles of the face contract due to the loss of moisture, and the skin clings to the bones, forming deep wrinkles that are permanently fixed on the skin. His cheeks were sunken in, his eye sockets were like two deep black holes, and he looked up at the window obliquely, as if he was staring at the sky, and his eyes had already flown out and turned into the two extra suns in the sky. His arms rested naturally on his legs, and the cuffs of his blue uniform peeked out of the cuffs of his military uniform were two white, fleshless, bird's claw-like hands with only a layer of skin attached to them.

It's a dried corpse.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the crow as a skeleton.

Petru pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but he didn't. It's not that he's scared, he's just depressed. He always felt that something was wrong with this place, but he didn't know what was wrong.

Situ stretched out his hand and gently pinched the collar of the man's coat, and the cloth on the collar was magically pinched off by him, turning into mud between his fingers.

He looked up and said, "Strange." With a light breath, the ash on his fingers flew away.

Aoki looked down at the name tag on the right chest of his uniform, saw the English word "Halsey" written on it, and then remembered the lieutenant commander he had seen on Lapa Island. He remembered that it was a very handsome and masculine face, and it didn't look abrupt at all when he stood with the beautiful Xia Xiaoxiao.

However, as soon as he saw the dried corpse in front of him, the impression of that face blurred, and then he could no longer find the appearance of that face in his memory, only the appearance of the dried corpse.

Ivan and Boris began to check the instruments in the command room, but found that none of them could be started and the circuits could not be connected.

"It looks like I'm running out of fuel, so I'll have to go to the power compartment and boiler room." Ivan said.

"Okay, by the way, look for weapons." Boris said in a haunting manner, and warned Petru, "Hey, Redbeard, that helicopter outside is mine, don't try to sneak away." ”

"Don't worry, I don't want to fall from the sky," Petrux said. The steel plates of the ships can corrode like that, and I'm sure that the helicopter has long been useless. ”

"Don't think you can fool me!" Boris said.

"No, he's right." Situ suddenly said, "The plane will definitely not be able to drive, and you don't have to try to restore the power of the ship, go to the tool bay and look for anything that can be used, if you can open the hatch there." ”

"Why?" Boris asked, puzzled.

"Look at this Lieutenant Colonel Halsey—" Situ pointed to the dried corpse on the chair with the scepter in his hand, "at least I've been sitting on this chair for a hundred, maybe a thousand!" ”
