Chapter 1466: The Past and Agreement of Ocean Exploration (Part II)

From beginning to finish, Chilman alone witnessed how an entire ship's people were going to destruction. He has always believed that as a human being who controls the entire Zuoxiang Continent, there must be many advantages to the fact that dragons can also be kept in captivity as a continuous source of raw materials.

The people who joined the ocean-going fleet were selected one after another, and Chilman was still impressed by the many exams at the beginning. In terms of psychology and willpower, everyone involved must pass several examinations and tests, and after the results are evaluated by the professional team, this is an important step in the selection process. Perhaps the impact and time of the fifteen years were not taken into account, but Chilman thought about the incident afterwards.

The separation of the ship from the main fleet was not accidental, but deliberate. Off-course a little angle, and when the people in the control room realized that the radio signal could not be received, the captain made the right decision, and continued to sail at a slow pace, pretending that nothing had happened, as the ship had been following the edge of the main fleet for a month.

But the leak was meant to happen, and much faster than the captain had imagined. At first, the captain's words could be comforting to a certain extent, but when some people realized that they were in an endless sea covered in mist, the panic that descended on them, like the storm they had encountered in the past fifteen years, instantly knocked their hearts down to the deck.

Chilman never understood why, in just half a day, this panic could give birth to so many terrible things. As long as you wait for half a day and wait until the fog clears, it is impossible to get out of the exploration range of the main fleet at the speed of the auxiliary ships. At that point, it was only necessary to wait for the main fleet to send ships to come to the rescue.

But the reality was completely different from what he had imagined, and panic had become a nutrient-rich hotbed on which all kinds of mold quickly grew. Half an hour later, the first clash between the crew took place, like a fuse, panic added to it a layer of chaos, followed by despair. All kinds of desires are ignited under the fog shrouded in darkness.

Just two hours later, the products of various desires were staged everywhere. The control room was destroyed shortly after, and the weapons that had been hidden for several years were briefly taken out to breathe in the foggy air.

After the fire in the stern, the flames became the god of death that drove people away, constantly bringing together fewer and fewer crew members.

There were corpses everywhere, and fresh blood was stained in every aisle. Chilman never thought that killing would be a good thing to vent his emotions, but at that time, others told him that it was the best thing to use as a vent. Unstoppable, Chilman was like a bystander, and then he was infected. When he withdrew from this state, he realized that he had become one of them, and that he was just a human being affected by the environment.

Half a day later, the fog had lifted, and the entire annex ship had been engulfed in flames, and as the sole survivor of that ship, Chilman had lost count of how many people he had killed in the hour or two that followed. When he came to his senses, he only knew that he was on a lifeboat, and waited until about 4 p.m. before being taken away by other ships that had rushed to search for him.

What follows, of course, is a comprehensive investigation and interrogation. All of his materials before entering the Exploration Fleet were printed out and used as a reference for the event. The delicate-minded Chilman certainly understands that even if the truth is told, this situation is unlikely to bring good results for himself. After being locked up in a separate room for a few days, he suddenly understood. Fifteen years have passed, and the vast majority of people have changed subtly, and their consciousness has influenced each other, so that there are not many people who can perceive the changes in the entire fleet, and perhaps only the people on the main ship of the Venitez can keep themselves awake.

I am also one of the affected people, but the difference is that the temperature required to ignite myself is a little higher.

And I don't know if it's luck or not, Chilman didn't tell the truth during the interrogation, and he attributed it all to this fog. Knowing that there is a substance in it that can affect radio communication, then whether these substances can affect the crew themselves, similar to a powerful hypnotic effect.

He was not released immediately, but three days later, when the same incident occurred on three other ships, Chilman was able to save his life. And as the sole survivor of the four ships on which such an incident occurred, Chilman was accidentally recruited into the Interim Response Team. From then on, Chilman was one of the few people to have access to the first major loss from the start.

Only one of the four ships was eventually recovered in its entirety. For more than ten days, it seemed that peace had come, and there was not a single incident during this time. But in those ten days, the main fleet changed course three times in a row, and this action made many people see something abnormal.

"I remember changing course for the third time, five days later. "Hilarily and Nonoska are like a pair of good students who tutor each other.

Nonoska nodded, "It's the fifth day." It was an unusual day, for the fog that had been covering the month and a half did not come that morning. Just when everyone thought they were out of the foggy area, at three o'clock that afternoon, the entire fleet that was sailing normally remembered the sound of an explosion. At that time, I was still sorting through the records of those years of exploring uncharted waters, and I heard a sound go to the deck, and an annex ship exploded and was slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea. ”

"At the time, it was thought to be a simple steam furnace explosion. "The death toll in the fleet rose rapidly over the next two days, and by the third day, it had exceeded a thousand. The condition of our surgeons is better, and among ordinary crew members, the panic has actually started to spread since the accident on the annex ship. What really frightened me was when the crew members who had lived on the same ship for fifteen years died in one night, and the corpses were scattered all over the dining hall. ”

"But two days later, the floating island was in range. "I don't know if it's good or bad. ”

"Although it was the first major loss event, I think the results were good. After all, that's the source, otherwise I don't think we'd have a better outcome in another situation. And we continued our voyage later, and it was on that floating island that we first saw ancient ruins and strange writings about continental groups. ”

"There is also an agreement about the ancient historical era. "It gives us some conjecture directions for the destruction that followed the ancient epoch." ”
