"In this way, the White Rose will not be able to reach the port of Kersman at the scheduled time to replenish fresh water and food, the fresh water stored on the ship is estimated to be exhausted in ten days, but there is a lot of food, it is really impossible to eat compressed biscuits to satisfy hunger, we must quickly find an island to replenish fresh water." Michelle muttered to herself.

Li Yi returned to his room stupidly, it was a pity that he couldn't take this opportunity to kill Blas, this poisonous snake was probably going to start planning against himself, and he could see the killing intent in his eyes.

The rain did not stop at all, the moisture spread into the cabin, and even the fire was burning to feel the cold dampness, and Felder was most disgusted by the rain, and he wore a woolen blanket, closest to the fire. About three or four hours later, it was late at night, but the rain had not stopped, and Li Yi fell asleep peacefully.

When he woke up early the next day, he didn't hear the rain, it seemed that the rainstorm had passed, and when he came out to look, the fog was steaming outside, and he couldn't tell the direction at all, and the sun only shrank into a vague dot overhead, "We're not going to get lost, right?" Unfortunately, Li Yi guessed correctly.

At noon, the fog dispersed, the sea was calm, there were no waves at all, and now there was no way to take care of it, so I could only burn the spirit crystal to advance, if the spirit crystal was used up and could not meet the monsoon or ocean current, I could only stay at sea and wait for death.

Michelle held a collective meeting to explain the matter, presumably hoping that everyone could come together and get through it. At this time, Li Yi sneered and said, "Captain, you are not decisive enough to harm us, if you started using fuel yesterday." It can drive away the sea worms, and it will not deviate from the course, but the result of this mistake is borne by us. ”

"If you're not happy, you can get out. You're not welcome here! Blas took the words and reprimanded unceremoniously, hearing Li Yi accuse the beautiful captain, the other explorers were also a little displeased.

"Haha, you people, if I hadn't discovered the sea worm first yesterday, your fate would have been worse than now!" Li Yi pointed out with a cold face. Everyone was silent, it was true, if it weren't for Li Yi's super range perception ability. and the nervous habit of watching the storm from the deck, even if it is too late for them to react, the sea worms will bite through the cabin the moment they touch the ship, and there is no boat. The Explorer team is a lost dog at sea.

"I apologize to you. It's true that I'm not calm enough, looking ahead and backward, and making the situation serious, now please trust me again and get through it together, okay? Michelle apologized with a flat mouth, a cry in her tone.

"What's the matter with me? When I met a useless captain, I could have a weak decision, so I had to disperse. I don't get as much work on your ship as I do on my own. Li Yi will not be polite to the captain just because she is a woman, and he has insight into the nature of human beings, and he does not regard gender beauty and ugliness as a criterion for judging good and evil.

"Ahh What you said is so harsh" Michelle covered her mouth, she didn't know why Li Yi said this, maybe she had never been so accused in the past.

"Harsh? I'm just telling the truth, Blas, don't look at me with this kind of gaze, I know that you were born into a big family and there is no shortage of spirit crystals, and there are some unclean purposes for coming to this ship, so what about the others? You were also born into a big family, and you don't get paid for working for nothing? Li Yi looked around, "Say what you really think in your hearts, instead of this, it is better to let me be the captain, I will perfectly explore the wealth in the sea, strengthen yourself in the plunder, you will have endless spirit crystals, if you miss the old captain, or have any personal thoughts about Michelle, then I can make a plan, you will carry it out, nominally she will be the captain, these days have passed, you also know my strength and strategy, believe me, definitely earn more than now." ”

Everyone lowered their heads in thought, and had to admit that Li Yi's words were very inflammatory, they were not saints, nor did they follow Captain Michelle because of their personality cult, they also had wives and children to support at home, or they wanted to save some money to find a wife and make some plans for the rest of their lives, or they wanted to go further and become one of the top explorers in the mainland.

At this time, the ugly face stood up, his eyes were very gentle, Li Yi felt that it was like the eyes of a docile camel in the desert looking at you, I don't know what this guy's head was thinking all day long.

The ugly face stood up, and the momentum was-for-tat with Li Yi, but he didn't fall behind at all, and he said: "Maybe you can earn more with you, but that money will definitely not be as clean as the remuneration that Michelle gave us, and it will be so comfortable to hold." ”

"Clean? Clear conscience? Money and clean? Li Yi laughed, "Making money is like getting oil and water from a dirty kitchen, don't be afraid of dirty hands, just wash them afterwards, you don't take ignorance as kindness, take the kindness of others as the motive to lure you to commit crimes, if you want to make clean money, don't be an explorer!" ”

"Maybe you're right, maybe the world itself is like this, but I just want peace of mind." Ugly Face never seems to argue with people, just gently expresses his opinions, but the more he does this, the more impeccable he becomes.

"A good one just wants peace of mind, although I don't agree with your point of view, but I respect your dreams, you go and just ask for peace of mind, others still have to make money, get oil and water, even if they have stepped on the opponent's corpse." Li Yi shrugged his shoulders contemptuously and turned his gaze to the man in the hat.

"My requirements are very low, I don't have the ambition to establish my own power and kingdom on the sea, and I don't want to join that Sea Explorer Alliance, I have to go back after a while, I just want to make a lot of money on the sea, a lot of money, don't you think so? I provide planning and guarantee profits, how? Li Yi asked.

The man in the hat looked at his leather shoes with some embarrassment, and after a while, he said: "I'd better follow Captain Michelle, after all, after so many years, it doesn't matter if you earn less, anyway, there is no shortage of spirit crystals." ”

"I also support Captain Michelle." Old Fran rolled his eyes and said.

"I'm always supportive! You troubled bastard, the conspiracy didn't succeed, did you? Blas will not let go of the opportunity to go against Li Yi and sneer.

Li Yi saw it clearly. Except for the silent Centrists, who did not support him, he snorted coldly. In fact, they did not intend to seize power just by doing so, but only to divide them, and those hesitant neutral parties were the results.

"Thank you, thank you!" Michelle was so moved that she burst into tears.

At this time, a sailor stumbled over and reported: "Captain, captain." There are islands! ”

Li Yi hurriedly took out his binoculars and looked ahead, on the horizon, a small island covered with trees and rocks. About thirty or forty miles in diameter, strangely enough, the trees on the island were all dead, and it seemed to be dry for many days. Such a vast sea. It is not uncommon for some islands to be untouched by rain, although there are clear signs of human activity on the beaches and reefs.

As the boat approached, Michelle frowned and asked the man in the hat: "This island looks dry for many days, will there be water on the island?" ”

"Who knows? Since there are people living, there must be water! The man in the hat replied noncommittally, in fact, he didn't know the bottom of his heart.

These isolated desert islands in the sea. There are often wrecked boats drifting here, and the people on it live on it while waiting for rescue. For generations, they have become accustomed to it, and even if a ship passes by, they have no intention of leaving the island and returning to the mainland, because they are institutionalized, accustomed to their surroundings, and afraid of change.

The boat docked, Li Yi did not choose to stay on the boat, but followed the team of explorers who got off the boat to look for water on the shore, and the two old men stayed behind to watch the boat.

The island is dead silent, the ground is dry and cracked, and there is a thick salt frost, such a seaside saline land can only grow in drought-tolerant and salt-tolerant plants, the terrain in front has been undulating, and some of the dead branches of the trees have spontaneously combusted into char because they are too dry, and there are some traces of moss on the cracked ground that has been raised, indicating that this was once a dense forest with abundant water and soil.

Further on, a silent village came into view, which, judging by its size, could accommodate from fifty to a hundred people. Cold and extreme dryness are deadly natural environments, and it is not known if anyone else will survive.

"Anyone? Are there still living people? A rough-voiced sailor shouted, his voice far away from the empty village.

Suddenly, a sound sounded, and out of the shadows of the houses came many emaciated people, their bodies covered in improvised straw, shivering in the cold wind, their eyes bulging from lack of water and hunger, and their tattered flesh and brown skin were the marks of suffering.

They spoke in a bad city-state language, and could not understand what was being muttered, and when Michelle saw their pitiful appearance, a wave of pity rose in her heart, and she commanded, "Take a portion of our water and give them to drink, and bring these men with you, or they will all die of thirst and starvation here." ”

Li Yi watched coldly from the sidelines, he found that these survivors were all adult men, very strange, there were faint blood stains on the corners of their mouths, a terrible guess was born in his heart, he went straight into a nearby room, a refugee struggled to stand up and tried to stop him, he kicked him away.

As he expected, there was a female corpse lying in the room, her neck was full of tooth marks, her blood vessels were bitten open, and her breasts. The room was completely gnawed away, leaving two shocking holes in blood, and she still carried an unborn baby in her belly.

"A group of brutes, thirsty to the extreme, kill women and children who have no ability to resist, and drink their blood to survive." Li Yi was furious, turned to the refugee who was about to pounce on him when he saw that the matter was revealed, and opened a shot, the fire smashed half of his head and splashed his brain all over the wall.

Hearing the gunshots, the explorers all ran over to see what was happening, and when they saw the female corpse in the room, they understood everything, and Michelle was even more stunned, and she simply fainted.

"Put away your boring sympathy!" Li Yi sneered as usual, and threw the fire gun to Felder, "Kill all these brutes." ”

This time, no one objected, not even the ugly face turned away, the flame of anger came out of his eyes, he didn't understand, how can human beings treat their own kind so cruelly, devouring each other in a desperate situation, all morality, order is not comparable to the desire for survival.

Felder has no psychological burden on the slaughter of human beings, and has been with Li Yi for a long time, and his view of human beings is deeply ingrained - the filthy soul of whitewashing sin and the shell of no edible value, but he plays a dominant role in this world, and the guns are fired one after another, and he shoots these refugees one by one.

"These people are too cruel, too inhumane, to treat their own kind like this, and to treat weak women as food!" The man in the hat looked disgusted, and he almost threw up.

Dig a big pit, bury all the victims in this settlement, and recite a eulogy with an ugly face, but Li Yi is not satisfied with stopping there, he mocks quietly, but everyone can hear: "If we also encounter such a desperate situation, who will you eat first?" Who will eat in the end? Anyway, I know you're not going to let dear Captain Michelle eat you one by one. ”

"What a demon you are, to say such a damaging thing! What exactly are you trying to say? Just when everyone was silent, the ugly face stood up and reprimanded.

"What do I want to say? It's very simple, it's just an idea, adjust the atmosphere, why can I put forward such an idea without guilt, but you have a shadow in your heart because of this idea, why? Because when I encounter such a situation, I will not eat you to survive, I will seek a more dignified way to die, instead of eating people to survive! Li Yi's words were loud, "But you say I'm a demon? Can't you face such a tortured assumption and make a personal attack on the person who proposed it, trying to deny my correctness in order to prove that my idea is false? Who is the devil? What are you afraid of? Afraid you'll turn into a beast in a desperate situation? You're not at peace in your heart, so you're emotional, and you're afraid of me because of that. ”

Li Yi approached the ugly face step by step, looked directly into his eyes, and punished his heart with every word.

"No, you're wrong, if you encounter that situation, I will let others eat me, let my body be exchanged for the survival of more people, you don't stand on the moral high ground to oppress me, because I am not an ugly person with a dark heart, so this kind of oppression will not have any effect." The ugly face retorted forcefully.

"Really? Self-sacrifice, you can go to heaven after death, are you a Christian? But those who eat your flesh are going to hell, and your subconscious mind is going to hell for the sake of going to heaven, is this your morality? Li Yi did not show weakness, he wanted to hit the heart of the ugly face and let him expose the darkness in his heart, and from then on, the best way to destroy this kind of spiritual cleanliness is to let them see their dirtiness.

"Alright, don't argue! What is there to argue about! Michelle woke up and put an end to the speculative wrestling between them.

"Captain, are you awake? The aborigines who exterminated humanity have all been solved, and now we can look on the island to see if there is food and water, although there has been a drought here for many days, but the strength of the explorers is not comparable to ordinary people, and there may be gains. Li Yi said respectfully, he just hit a nail in the ugly face, this guy's psychological defense line is very strong, not so easy to overcome, but there are also gains, I learned some information about the ugly face, such as he is a religious believer, has strong willpower, some ideas are deep-rooted, blind and stubborn, such a person is difficult to deal with.
