At this moment, it is early autumn, according to the speed of the Dream Cruise, it is planned to spend a month along the Atlantic Ocean to the north across the Norwegian Sea into the Barents Sea, then across the Arctic Ocean, and then from the Bering Strait into the Pacific Ocean, a voyage of 10,000 nautical miles.

On this day of blue sky and wide sea, in addition to normal learning and scenery viewing every day, every afternoon, there will always be a class time, two mothers personally teach the girl Bing Xuanjin, and the boy to teach the flame palm, so that they are always in a happy and beautiful childhood.

The rest of the time, Shui Jingxin and Ke Fei'er worked with Ouzhou Jiangyang to study the navigation route, but also to learn martial arts from each other. In terms of time arrangement, it is also staggered, busy and orderly.

The most unbearable are several grandparents and grandparents, the eight of them have a full day of wine and food, and the foredeck observation deck of the Dream Cruise is a place they must remember.

From the portholes, you can occasionally see large marine life, such as beluga whales, horn whales, and sharks, while walruses and sea lions are hard to see because they are mostly in the icy Arctic.

As for polar bears and arctic foxes, they are also products of the icy Arctic continent.

Other than that, it's going for a swim to get fit, playing cards or watching a blockbuster movie. However, after a long time, Yun Lei always felt that doing nothing on the cruise ship all day was still a little less interesting.

Time flies, and on this day, the Dream Cruise crossed the Barents Sea over Novaya Zemlya into the Kra Sea, and walked here, almost halfway through the trip.

In the early autumn of the Arctic Ocean in the middle of the afternoon, the blue waves rippled, and in the clear blue sky, a few white clouds occasionally drifted by.

Under the precise control of the intelligent cruise system, the Dream Cruise cleaves the waves and sails at full speed. From time to time, you can see various creatures in the deep sea through the large screen.

Sometimes, a whale shark resembling a submarine will appear on the big screen, which will moderately spice up everyone's mood.

In fact, Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang also very much hope that the nuclear submarine on the dark side can ambush the deep sea and carry out a sneak attack, which is just to test the upgraded dream cruise ship and see how terrifying its combat power is.

However, all the way from the Mediterranean, not to mention the traces of nuclear submarines, even reconnaissance satellites operating in space, it seems that it is rarely seen.

The scene was a different story from last fall's maiden voyage. During that time, the dark side mobilized all the means at its disposal to conduct all-round reconnaissance and tracking of the Dream Cruise, and even to chase and intercept it.

From this point of view, the dark side of today is indeed much more honest. So much so that they didn't want to, or even dared not organize, a sneak attack.

In addition, there are not many ships on this route, so that on the vast ocean, it is usually a luxury to sail all day and see the figure of a huge ship.

In the afternoon of this day, drinking fragrant coffee, Yun Lei looked out the window for a while, and then said leisurely: "This place is not far from the Arctic continent, and I often see the cute appearance of polar bears in the animal world. ”

At that time, Ou Zhou and Shui were meditating, Jiang Yang and Ke Fei'er were sitting on the side, and when they heard that, they exchanged glances with each other.

Ou Zhou said with a smile: "If you go to the Arctic continent, the cruise ship has to dock at a certain port, and then transfer to a helicopter." Due to our special status, renting a helicopter here is not as convenient as renting a minibus in the Mediterranean. It's a vast and sparsely populated area, and it's not easy to find helicopters. And, with our numbers, we'll have to rent at least two. ”

Jiang Yang continued: "Dream cruise ships are famous all over the world, and wherever they go, they will cause a huge sensation. The countries around the Mediterranean are located in a prosperous country with many ports, and we were able to escape the attention of the media reporters by using the skillful operation of disguise. Here, on the contrary, the traffic is backward, and once the cruise ship is berthed, it is not easy to find a suitable means of transportation immediately. ”

Yun Lei said: "Where we don't hide our deeds, just show people in the light, what the situation should be, what the situation is." ”

Ou Zhou saw that he didn't persuade his mother, so he had to ask for help from Shui Jingxin and Ke Fei'er.

Shui Jingxin said: "Mom, we adults are nothing, the key is to have a few children." With such a big family, safety is the primary concern! ”

Ke Feier sang and harmonized with her: "There are eighteen of us, even if we rent a helicopter to go to the Arctic continent, we need two, and everyone's safety can't be taken into account!" ”

Jiang Yang came up with an idea: "Unless we can find an uninhabited island on the verge of the North Pole, the cruise ship will anchor, and we will take a lifeboat over." But only if you don't encounter an iceberg. ”

Ou Zhou immediately said: "Senior brother, it is not difficult to find such an island, the difficult thing is that once the cruise ship is anchored, will it encounter a drifting iceberg collision?" ”

Jiang Yang said: "If the cruise ship is stationary, if there is really an iceberg floating, it is too late to hide, the risk is too great." ”

This was echoed by the majority of the people, which was tantamount to rejecting the idea.

Ou Zhou thought for a while, and then said: "Why don't you ask the intelligent cruise system to see if you can see polar bears on the cruise ship and avoid icebergs?" ”

Ke Feier smiled: "Brother, this idea is bold enough, polar bears are either on land or on ice." Unless they happen to be on a piece of ice floe to move their habitat. However, in the sea area with ice floes, there will be no shortage of icebergs. ”

Ou Zhou blinked and said with a smile: "What if you have any good luck, you can see a polar bear without encountering an iceberg?" ”

Shui Jingxin said happily: "Junior Brother Ou, this probability should not exceed five percent. ”

Ou Zhou said with a smile: "Hehe, senior sister, even if there is a one percent hope, we have to try it, and it is not in vain that we have an advanced dream cruise ship, and it is not in vain to come to the North Pole." ”

When Yun Lei heard this, she immediately urged: "Then hurry up and ask, if you continue to discuss like this, it will be dark." ”

Ou Zhou then pressed the intelligent voice controller on his wrist and asked, "The intelligent cruise system, can we safely see polar bears on the dream cruise ship?" ”

"Please wait a minute, the terahertz radar is scanning, and the intelligent cruise system is assessing the risk factor of this problem." ”

Everyone's spirits lifted, and they all paid attention to the terahertz radar screen, waiting for the results.

"Note that after terahertz radar scanning and the calculation of the intelligent cruise system, three hundred nautical miles in front of the left, there is a female bear on the ice floes, with three cubs migrating, but there are more icebergs nearby, and the danger factor is fifteen."

With the broadcast of intelligent voice, the large screen of terahertz radar showed the ice floe, and there was indeed a thermal imaging display of animals on it.

Ou Zhou asked again: "Intelligent cruise system, is there a way to go to have a look." ”

"There is a way, that is, the electromagnetic cannon needs to fire kinetic energy projectiles to destroy the iceberg in front of it, and try to minimize the threat."

"You can do that, please do it immediately."

"The order has been received, and the Dream Cruise is turning around, and in three hours, it will meet the ice floe on which the polar bear is riding."

Ou Zhou looked at the time, three hours later, it should be after six o'clock in the afternoon. Because it is early autumn, the sun deviates from the Tropic of Cancer and is approaching the equator, and the daylight is not too short.

Therefore, once there is a new expectation, everyone's spirit is immediately invigorated.

On the big screen, you can see that the dream cruise ship, which was originally sailing all the way east, is turning left at the moment and moving towards the northeast at a high speed.

With the blessing of advanced terahertz radar and intelligent cruise control system, there is no need to worry about what happens ahead.

Usually after four o'clock, Shui Jingxin and Ke Fei'er will teach the children Ice Xuanjin and Flame Palm as always, and after this class, they can watch together.

Eight grandparents and grandparents returned to the observation deck with great interest and sat there to enjoy the magnificent Arctic Ocean. Wait quietly for the polar bear encounter.

Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang remained in their seats in the central control room, closely watching the scans of the terahertz radar.

It can be seen that the intelligent cruise system is like a superior racing driver, always the first time, far away from the icebergs and reefs that cannot be seen in the field of vision.

So that the dream cruise ship can always sail at the fastest speed. When the time came to half past five, the icebergs displayed on the terahertz radar gradually increased, and the cruise ship had to slow down.

At this time, several children had already finished class, and the two teachers came to the observation deck, waiting for the unforgettable scene.

As we get closer, the density of the icebergs increases. As you can see from the large screen, the ship's aft deck closure has been opened and the electromagnetic cannon is ready to go.

The Dream Cruise was probably designed to allow the cannon to fire projectiles at the best angle, with a slight adjustment to the angle of the voyage.

Several children opened their eyes excitedly, looked at the big screen for a while, turned their heads to look at the movement on the ocean outside the porthole, and looked forward to the magnificent scene.

In fact, with the advanced degree of the dream cruise, it is impossible to see the iceberg within visual distance. If you really wait until you see the iceberg, it is already very dangerous.

Therefore, until the moment when the electromagnetic cannon began to fire continuously, one did not see where the iceberg really was?

Shui Mingyue asked strangely: "Dad, what is the electromagnetic cannon shooting vigorously?" ”

Ou Zhou said with a smile: "The clairvoyance on the dream cruise ship saw that there were icebergs blocking the way, and the electromagnetic cannon was launched to destroy the icebergs of the roadblockers. ”

"Iceberg, is it big, why can't I see it?"

"It's because people's eyesight is limited and they can't see far."

"Why doesn't the cruise ship go away?"

"Mingyue, it's because the density of the iceberg is a bit large, I can't avoid this one, I can't avoid that. Therefore, you have to knock out a few of them before you can drive safely! ”

"Dad, is there a way for me to see the picture of the iceberg being destroyed?"

"That's a bit of a difficult question, let me ask the intelligent cruise system, right?"

After Ou Zhou finished speaking, he pressed the intelligent voice controller on his wrist and said: "The intelligent cruise system, can we see the picture of the iceberg being destroyed?" ”

"Okay, look at the big screen."

The intelligent cruise control system displays the image of the iceberg being destroyed by the electromagnetic kinetic energy defense system on the big screen through the terahertz radar.

Everyone saw that the electromagnetic cannon emitted a series of flickering fires, and the electromagnetic projectiles with a piercing whistling sound were continuously hitting an iceberg hundreds of nautical miles away.

Each projectile that hits an iceberg can cut off a corner until the iceberg is completely destroyed, leaving only a block of ice on the surface of the ocean that is not strong enough to pose a threat.

On the screen, the Dream Cruise is moving forward while choosing the best angle, which is convenient for destroying the iceberg in the shortest time.

The electromagnetic cannon stops and stops, and each time it fires a projectile, it always takes less than a minute to destroy the target. But the aft deck closer was still open, apparently to wreck the iceberg behind.

When the time came to six o'clock, another round of firing was carried out from the electromagnetic cannon.

As soon as the artillery fire stopped, I listened to the intelligent voice broadcast report: "Please pay attention to the observation, the dream cruise ship is about to meet the polar bear mother and child standing on the ice floe migration." Due to the increasing density of the ice floe, the cruise ship will slow down as much as possible, but the observation process will only take two minutes. ”

The children's eyes immediately widened and they looked out excitedly.

Ou Zhou immediately ordered: "Intelligent cruise system, open the foredeck closer." ”

As soon as the closure was opened, everyone saw a large piece of ice floe floating in front of the left, due to the remoteness, and the pure white fur of the polar bear was not obvious on the ice.

After Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang picked up the telescope and looked at it, they found that there were three big and four polar bears on it, so they showed the telescope to a few children.

The moment Shui Mingyue saw it, she jumped high with joy, and several children exclaimed again and again: "I saw it, I saw it too..."

Adults each have a telescope and enjoy the picture of a polar bear mother and child on the ice floe.

The mother bear apparently noticed that the strange cruise ship was passing by them, and looked uneasily and hid the three cubs behind her.

The brilliance of motherhood is vividly displayed at this moment. It seems that it is well aware of the difficulties of human beings, and is ready to use its body to withstand the blow.

The ice floe was the size of three football fields, and the mother bear did her best to bring the cub to the farthest edge of the cruise ship for safety.

When the ice floe is closest to the cruise ship, it is also 300 meters away, and if it is not for the telescope, I am afraid that I will not be able to see it clearly.

Despite the Dream Cruise's efforts to slow down, two minutes later, only the mother and child of the polar bear could be seen vaguely through the binoculars.

A few children were still excited, and Shui Mingyue shouted for the cruise ship to turn around and catch up and take a look. Stopped by the water meditation.

After Ou Zhou ordered the closure of the front and rear decks, the Dream Cruise, with the blessing of advanced terahertz radar and intelligent cruise system, began to quickly break away from this floating ice sea.

At the moment when the sun was about to disappear, I heard the voice broadcast of intelligent cruise: "Report, the dream cruise ship has left the ice floe sea area and is rushing to the channel." ”

Ou Zhou's hanging heart was put back in his stomach.

Yes, after all, shouldering the safety of the two families and eighteen people, even if the Dream Cruise has an advanced intelligent cruise system, it does not dare to take it lightly.

As a result, dinner that day came an hour and a half later than usual.
