Chapter 188 Mysterious Island
"Sorry, Mr. Second Lieutenant, this is the captain's order." The non-commissioned officer's face was dull, not frightened by Leng Danrong's momentum, and he conveyed the order indifferently.
"Boy, no one taught you how to talk to the commander when you were in the novice training camp?" Leng Danrong obviously didn't take this trick. He smiled and grabbed the soldier in front of him, looking like he was trying to teach a lesson.
"Put him down." Meng Qian stopped Leng Danrong who wanted to speak with his fists. Leng Danrong snorted, pushed hard, and almost piled up the soldier. [bsp; "Call your captain, I have something to ask." Meng Qian looked at the weather outside the window and said to the non-commissioned officer crew member with an unquestionable tone.
"Dear colleagues, I am Fa Hong, the captain of the Poverty Wind. I have something to say to you." The cabin door opened, and an officer with the rank of lieutenant walked in, bowed slightly, and said politely.
Although Leng Danrong felt a little angry, the captain's military rank was there, and he spoke very politely, so he forced himself to suppress himself and said lightly: "A mere storm, the Pofeng will leave the customer and return. Wouldn't it be a joke to tell it out? Please ask the Captain to give us a reasonable explanation."
At this moment, the hull bumped again, and several people with slightly inferior strength couldn't stand firmly and almost fell down.
Fa Hong smiled bitterly: "This storm is different from the past. According to the information received by the satellite, there is a large amount of nuclear material in the offshore air at this time, which is mixed with the storm and will stick to the hull. Once lightning strikes the alloy ship, it may cause the ship to be destroyed and people to die. So it is a forced return. Now I will provide you with two sets of solutions, and you can choose for yourself."
"Which two sets?" Meng Qian asked.
"The first and the safest one is, you can follow the ship to return, and the rent will be refunded in full. After the storm, you will make a decision."
"The second type is that there is a small island nearly thirty nautical miles ahead, not far from your destination. I will send you there and return to the voyage. The rent will be refunded halfway. You should know that the place close to the spring is full of reefs in the sea, and there is a lot of turbulence. In addition, the weather is bad, the probability of an accident is too high, so we can't do anything about it."
After the captain finished speaking, he stopped talking, without a single nonsense, and quietly waited for the reply.
As things come to this point, the rest of the people have no better way. After some exchange, everyone decided to choose the second one, land on the island for the time being, wait for the storm to stop a little, and use diving tools to dive from the island to the spring in the sea. Although this is a bit risky, it is much better than returning.
The island is not large, with a coastline of only a dozen kilometers. The island is full of lush vegetation and lush greenery. When a few people brought their equipment and equipment from the boat, accompanied by lightning and thunder, a pouring rain had already fallen from the sky. Although everyone has the ability to resist radiation, it is absolutely not comfortable to be poured on by rainwater filled with light fishy smell and radiation.
When everyone walked down from the alloy ship, the alloy ship motor roared and dragged out a white wave, heading towards the direction of Hurricane Island in the roaring thunder.
Crack! Boom!
The dazzling lightning and the deafening thunder sounded almost at the same time, and the ground was trembling a little. It was like the gods in the sky were angry, venting their anger.
Although the vast white rain line blocked the view, everyone still saw a dazzling light rising from the sea level, accompanied by a dull explosion, which was thrilling.
"The ship was struck by lightning!" The soldier who had just landed on the island shouted out in dismay.
"This captain encountered an accident to send us off, which is really a pity." Liu Feng shook his head and sighed a little. The accident happened so suddenly.
Leng Danrong disagreed: "There is nothing to regret. We paid the rent, and he was just fulfilling his obligations. Besides, if he directly sent us to the destination according to the plan just now, he would avoid the eye of the storm and avoid the tragedy. He insisted on returning and hit the eye of the storm with thunder and lightning energy. No one would blame for any accidents."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Have you noticed that this island is a bit weird?" Meng Qian waved her hand and interrupted Leng Danrong's next words.
Liu Feng picked a leaf and chewed it in his mouth. The fat and tender leaves are rich in moisture, cool and delicious, with no toxicity at all, and even have a faint sweetness.
"The plants here are not affected by radiation." Liu Feng picked a few leaves of different plants and tasted them, and came to a conclusion.
"That's strange. Although the natural environment in this area is not very harsh, it often blows wind and rains. The radiation content in the air is not low. How could the plants not have radiation?" Leng Danrong tasted it and the result was still the same.
"I'll test it." The water-based magician Jin Xia took out a water-blue staff and made a light blue water ball towards the land at the bottom of her feet. The water ball quickly sank into the surface and turned into a clear ball of water to moisten into the land.
She closed her eyes and opened her right hand slightly, and she could vaguely see that her right hand always maintained a strange connection with the ground.
Ten seconds later, she opened her eyes, "The soil here is a bit strange, with a component that decomposes radiation. Due to the influence of heavy rain, it is still impossible to tell whether this soil was formed a long time ago or was formed by the release of a special substance."
"What does this mean?" someone asked.
"If the soil that existed a long time ago does not mean anything. If it was formed by a certain substance, it may be because there are some interesting things hidden underground, such as ancient civilization relics or some ancient science and technology laboratory." Jin Xia was also shocked by her own speculation.
Liu Feng had some clarity that this place was not far from the spring in the mission. If the ruins of ancient civilization were large enough, or more than one place, the underground of this island might really have secrets.
Jin Xia's speculation immediately received response and recognition from most people, and the bad mood that was blocked by the storm also dissipated a lot.
The team advanced towards the depths of the island under the guidance of a soldier with reconnaissance capabilities.
Logically speaking, there must be many creatures in an island that can decompose radiation and produce pure water. The island is not big. If there are real creatures, even if they hide, they will be alarmed. But what is surprising is that the island in the rainstorm only has the sound of rain and leaves and the sound of wind. In addition, there is no sound of a bird's chirping, and no living animal is seen along the way. The entire island is quiet and weird.
At the beginning, everyone didn't care much. It would be better if there was no obstruction from beasts, but over time, many people noticed something was wrong.
