Mysteries of the Earthsea

  Chapter 1052 Ice

  Lily put the book down, opened the curtains, and looked out through the round porthole.

  It was still pitch black outside, just like that day.

  Only this time, there is no luminous jellyfish in the sea, and no one knows what is hidden in this darkness.

  Maybe there is nothing, maybe there are other things.

  Lily closed the little notebook in her hand, opened the door and walked towards the cockpit.

  As she moved, the shimmering hair behind her slender waist swayed gently in the air.

  Explore in the unknown sea, no one knows that they can meet the gods, no one wants to die, the atmosphere on the boat is very depressing, everyone is cautious.

  The more you move towards the goal, the lower the temperature becomes. Everyone wears clothes that can be worn on themselves.

  Watching them shrink their necks and exhale as much as possible, Lily didn't feel anything.

   "Mr. Captain, how long will it take?" Lily asked Krath who was drinking while leaning against the wall.

  "Daily ship progress and chart, are all hung on the wall, don't you know how to read it?" Krass mental state is always so drunk.

  Lily walked over, watching the one half way. She looked a little anxious. "Can't you hurry up?"

   "Quick? Don't forget that this is an unexplored area, will you show me one soon?"

  At this time, the first mate with a black eye mask was helping. "If it was a mission issued by the Explorers Association that year, such a large area would have to be divided into at least five pieces. It would be a death-hunting behavior to open the turbine to the maximum."

  Lily of course knew that the other party was right, but this couldn't ease the anxiety in her heart.

  Seriously, if she can start alone, she really doesn’t want to go slowly like this.

   At this moment, the first officer frowned and smashed his head with one hand with a fist.

  His expression gradually became very painful, and his right hand reached into his pocket and took out a large number of red rectangular capsules.

   He tilted his head, put the at least dozens of capsules into his mouth and swallowed hard.

   "It's okay, I'm old and sick, and there will be other voices in my head." The cheerful chief mate explained.

   "That's Futan's whisper, you should go ashore to rest." Lily kindly reminded.

   "My former captain has the same experience as you."

   Hearing other people’s persuasion, the first officer showed a self-deprecating smile on his face, “Go ashore, it’s easy to say, little girl, my house is sinking, where can I rest.”

   "The sunken Yeongdo? Is your home in Yeongdo too?" Lily asked with her eyes wide open.

   "It's not Yeongdo, it's a small island in the East China Sea."

  The first officer's eyes showed memories. "It's a very small island, and although the water on the island can be drunk, it is very bitter."

  "It was a remote place with no useful resources. I grew up there. When the sea floated up, it was the first one to submerge, but when the sea receded, it disappeared."

  "My two wives, six children, and my mother, none of them came back."

  When the first officer said these words, his tone was very flat, as if he was telling other people's stories.

   "When I first got on the exploration ship, I felt very resistant in my heart. I always felt like being locked in a ship-shaped prison."

   "But the power of habit is terrible. Now I can't live without it, because only by floating on this sea can I feel that I'm alive."

  Lily can feel the strong emotions in the other party's words, and she wants to comfort him.

   "Don't give up, everything will be fine."

   "Everything will be fine, hahaha!" Klass laughed first behind him, and the first officer at the helm laughed.

  The laughter was so harsh, Lily could hear it as a mockery.

  The first mate, who had all the tears of laughter, began to see off the guests. "Hey, little girl, go back and stay, don't go out for shopping, I will call you when you reach the destination."

  Seeing the other person treating herself like this, Lily felt a little angry at this moment, she turned around and was about to leave the cockpit.

   "Head, there is a situation, what is in front of you?" The first officer's voice suddenly became serious and Lily's footsteps stopped.

  The huge beam of light from the searchlight swept over, and a huge white object full of depression was slowly approaching them.

  When the thing was completely presented in front of Lily, she realized that it was a huge iceberg.

  This moving mountain floating on the surface of the sea gradually disappeared from her vision as the sea water flowed.

   Without waiting for Lily and others to say something, another iceberg appeared in front of them again.

  Although the searchlight is too short to observe other places, it can be guessed that icebergs like this are everywhere.

  Lily walked to the side of the boat and poked her head out, and saw that there was a lot of crushed ice in the jet black liquid.

  The waves that should have been turbulent here also stopped in an instant. The entire sea surface was flat like a mirror, and the salty and wet sea breeze in the sky didn't know when it would stop.

  Without the sound of the waves and the howling of the wind, it is extremely quiet here, like a large tomb.

  Everyone on the boat held their breath, as if afraid that their breathing would wake up the undead buried in the grave.

  Although it seemed that the situation had become very dangerous, they continued to move forward under the command of the captain.

  The temperature gets lower as you move forward. It is no longer enough for all the clothes to be wrapped around your body. The sultry vortex chamber that no one usually wants to come has become a sweet potato.

   The abnormal environment outside made Krass vigilant the highest.

  He is always preparing for possible dangers.

  But he miscalculated. Except for those icebergs, there was no other active thing in front of him.

  Finally, five days later, the Maid and Love account finally couldn't go on.

  The deck covered in hoarfrost was full of crew members. They opened their mouths wide and stared at the scene in front of them dumbfounded.

  Finally, UU reading www. The extremely low temperature of uukanshu.com made the separated icebergs on the sea completely connected together, forming the frozen continent in front of them.

  The people on this ship are all veterans, but this is the first time they see this scene in their eyes.

   "There is no way, my ship will not pass, you can go back and tell the king that my mission has failed."

  In the face of such an ending, Klass seemed very open-minded, and he didn't even make any other attempts.

  The first officer walked to Lily and reminded, “In this case, I think you can apply for an airship, but the ship will definitely not work.”

  Lily took out the chart from the cockpit, and began to estimate in her heart the possibility of starting from here to the destination on her own.

   "Head! Look! We are going backwards! Something is dragging us away under the boat!"

  A horrified sailor pointed at the rapidly retreating frozen continent and said.

  When Klass saw the sea without any fluctuations, he frowned and shook his head.

   "We didn't move, it was these connected icebergs that moved!"
