Chapter 147: A Hard Voyage
"Captain, our food can only last for two more days!" Ma Gang stood beside Shen Lie, looked at the endless sea in front of him and sighed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Shen Lie knew the meaning of the other party's words, and wanted to ask him if he didn't have any food in his hand, but his space gourd was already empty, except for two boxes of instant noodles and some small food, there were only cigarettes and alcohol left.
"The daily food is halved again, and one more day is a day to live!" Shen Lie shook his head, and Ma Gang's eyes suddenly dimmed when he saw it.
"Now everyone only eats one porridge a day, and if it is halved again, I'm afraid everyone's combat effectiveness will disappear."
"Hey! I see, I'm going to let you know. Ma Gang couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, what else can he do now besides tighten his belt? And even then, it's just a day or two longer.
Until Ma Gang left, Shen Lie's eyes did not leave the sea, and he didn't know how big this sea area was, and he hadn't seen land for so many days, and he hadn't encountered an island again.
It had now been more than a month since they left the island, and this more than a month had been a crisis, with more than a dozen battles of all sizes, and an extremely terrifying attack by a flock of strange birds, which caused their team to suffer heavy losses.
Now the entire team has been reduced by nearly half, and only about 100 people are left from the 200 or so people, and all of them are wounded, and their combat effectiveness has decreased sharply.
It was thanks to the fact that he had been promoted to rank 4 in the graveyard by chance, otherwise the large sea monsters he encountered several times would have smashed their big ship into the sea.
Of course, the energy weapons obtained from the graveyard also helped, and these energy weapons more than doubled the strength of some of the awakened and played a pivotal role in the battle.
But even so, now they are on the verge of despair, no matter how strong the enemy is, they still have the life to fight, but food is not something that can be solved by manpower.
In more than a month, the food in his space gourd had been exhausted, and this was thanks to the large amount of wild fruits obtained on that Karen island, otherwise his little supplies would not have been able to support him now.
It's not that he doesn't have the selfishness to keep everything private, but even if he is alive, everyone else starves to death. How long can he live alone on the surface of the sea, where water is water alone?
And without the metal ability of the awakened to repair the ship, without the wind ability of the awakened to propel the ship forward, the ship can only spin in place.
Not to mention that people who still need water system ability to desalinate seawater, and people who need perception ability to discern the direction, a group is still so embarrassed, if he is the only one, even if the strength is high, he will not survive for a few days.
"Whew!"
"Woo・・・・・・"
A horn sounded, pulling Shen Lie back from his state of wandering in the world, and then he heard the sound of waves crashing in the direction of the left side of the big boat.
"Monsters are coming! Attention everyone, get ready to attack! ”
Ma Gang's voice rang out from the side of the ship, and the Awoken quickly rushed from their resting positions to the left side of the ship, engaging in a fierce battle with the swift fish creatures.
Their expressions had become numb, without sadness or joy, and they were just skillfully doing mechanical movements.
After more than a month of non-stop fighting, the factor of battle has been integrated into the bones of the remaining awakened people, and each of their blows must be the least consumed, but the attack effect is the strongest, and every time they can hit the enemy's vital parts.
Compared with before, the combat strength of this 100 people is much stronger than the original 200 people. But their hearts are dead, because they have no goal in their battles, and there is no hope of victory or defeat.
"Boom!"
An earth-shattering sound appeared in the group of monsters, and then a golden hammer that looked like a substance smashed into the sea, and accompanied by thunder and lightning, smashed those monsters to death in one fell swoop.
This was Shen Lie's move, and he didn't want his subordinates to consume too much energy, so that they could suffer from hunger for a few more days.
This sea monster is just a small number of white scaleless fish, and its combat effectiveness is not strong, coupled with Shen Lie's shot, most of them were quickly wiped out, and the rest scattered in a hurry, running cleanly.
"Catch two of them and see if they can eat them, and then go to rest!" Shen Lie casually commanded, not hoping for this, and then stopped paying attention to these trivial matters.
I don't know if it's because of the big gap between the otherworldly species and the earth or because of this sea water, they have killed a lot of various creatures in the past month, but none of them can be eaten. No matter what level you are, as long as you eat it, you will definitely die, and several Awakened have died on it because they couldn't hold back their hunger.
However, if it is the cause of the seawater, then the desalinated seawater is fine when drunk, so everyone believes that the genes of this otherworldly creature conflict with the human life system, and it is caused by the different rules of heaven and earth.
Shen Lie also thought so, but then his idea was shattered by reality.
"Captain! Head! The meat of this fish is actually edible! It's really edible! Haha, we have hope! ”
Shen Lie was about to go back to the cabin to see Zhang Xue and Xia Ke, these two girls were not in a good condition, and Xu Ruobing was taking care of them there. Unexpectedly, as soon as he was about to enter the cabin, he was stopped by Daniel Zhang who flew over.
"What can I eat?" Daniel Zhang's emotions were so excited that Shen Lie couldn't hear what the other party was saying.
"Fish, those fish just now, you can eat them, and you can eat the meat of those fish monsters!" Daniel Zhang took a deep breath, calmed his emotions and said.
Now Shen Lie understood, and suddenly showed an incredible look, and did not care about returning to the cabin, but hurriedly followed Daniel Zhang's steps.
・・・・・・
"How's it going, are you getting better?" Shen Lie walked into a room in the cabin, still holding a large bowl of fish soup in his hand.
Xia Ke, Zhang Xue and Cheng Shanshan, the three ordinary girls, all live in this one house. Except for the occasional outdoor outing, the three of them usually don't leave the house, for fear of being infected with bacteria in the other world, leading to incurable diseases.
But even with such care, the physique of these three people was still too weak, and not long after leaving the island, they collapsed at different times.
Of course, this is mostly caused by psychological pressure caused by unsaturated food, coupled with the lack of nutrition, the trace elements required by the body cannot be supplied, and the body is getting thinner and thinner day by day. Fortunately, Shen Lie had some vitamin tablets and some antibiotics in his hands, otherwise the three of them would not have been able to support them now.
At this time, it can be seen that there is a huge gap between ordinary people and the awakened, not only in battle, but also in all aspects.
"Come, let's drink a little fish soup, hold on, there is hope in life!" Shen Lie filled a bowl of soup for the three of them and put it next to the bed, and said encouragingly. This fish soup is still boiled by the fish they killed last time, and this fish is not only fine to eat, but also very delicious, and it is their staple food for a while.
The three girls were still able to take care of themselves, sat up from the bed weakly, smiled at Shen Lie reluctantly, and then began to drink soup. (To be continued.) )
