The Cursed Ship

Chapter 100 Losing Iron

Less than half a day after entering the Ross Sea, Zheng Yang and Sai Yulali felt a trace of abnormal fatigue, and there was always a feeling of irritability.

This is a contradictory state, just like being sick and upset, making it even more uncomfortable.

Both of them are extraordinary people, and their control over their bodies and emotions far exceeds that of ordinary people. The current level of influence is not too much for them to bear.

Zheng Yang's heart moved, Chuan Nian asked: "Alice, have you been affected?"

After a while, Alice replied: "Hmph, I'm very uncomfortable. The sea water here will damage the hull."

Zheng Yang checked the status of the boat spirit, and found nothing abnormal. He felt Alice's mouth puffed up, and suddenly laughed.

Later, Zheng Yang also found that the consumption of spiritual energy was faster than when he first entered Ross Sea.

He sensed carefully and found that the steel in the part of the hull soaked in seawater was slowly losing, and then the spirit ship absorbed iron from the seawater and repaired it.

Although the hull is mainly made of wood, a large amount of steel is wrapped around the joints of the corners. This continuous repair process has accelerated the consumption of spiritual energy by three percent.

Through underwater perception, the three paddle machines that are not covered by the magic circle have slight rust on the underwater part.

"It's the disturbance of the magnetic field that caused the physical discomfort!" Seyulari said after feeling it for a while.

Zheng Yang nodded. The loss of iron is due to sea water, while biological fatigue and emotional instability are due to the discomfort caused by the magnetic field. Even the fish in the fish barn were either sluggish, or swam around desperately, and some simply turned their bellies up.

Zheng Yang decisively covered the three electric oar hanging machines with the array.

This will undoubtedly consume more psychic energy. Fortunately, the fishing island has been found, and it can be parked overnight to replenish the psychic energy reserve.

After adjusting the course and sailing towards the island for half an hour, Zheng Yang gasped in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Seyulari looked at him.

Zheng Yang held up the binoculars, pointed to the location of the island and said, "Look, we don't seem to be approaching the island, we are even farther away!"

"How is it possible, does it move?"

Seyulari also picked up the binoculars and looked at it for a while, then muttered a curse.

Zheng Yang sensed the underwater situation for a while, and guessed: "Maybe there is an ocean current here to push us away!"

The waves created by the magic circle push the spirit boat forward, but if they are on a large-scale ocean current, and the speed of the ocean current exceeds the speed of the spirit boat, they will be farther and farther away from the target island.

"Record track, turn right 45 degrees, speed 25 knots, time is 4:08 pm!"

...

"Turn left 135 degrees, speed 25 knots, time is 4:40 pm!"

Half an hour later, Zheng Yang and Sai Yulali finally confirmed that they were approaching the island. But there are a lot of reefs under the sea surface, some of which are just under the water surface, appearing and disappearing with the waves.

Zheng Yang slowed down, used his underwater perception to avoid hidden reefs, and approached the island bit by bit.

Two hours later, it was dark and they were at least five nautical miles from the island.

At this moment, Zheng Yang gasped again. More than 30 meters below the water, there is actually a wreck of a sunken ship. The metal on it has been completely lost, and only some non-metallic things are left stuck between the reefs. It can be vaguely recognized that it used to be a ship.

Not only steel, but all metals will corrode faster in the sea water here. What kind of power is plundering metal through sea water?

As he continued to go deeper, Zheng Yang discovered more and more wrecks of shipwrecks. It seemed that endless naval battles had taken place here, burying one fleet after another.

The draft of the building boat was very shallow, Zheng Yang controlled the direction and carefully avoided those hidden reefs.

It's really weird, even if the magnetic field here is weird,

The underwater radar will fail, and the underwater imaging system should be able to find and avoid hidden reefs. How did it sink so many ships?

Or is this magnetic field disorder serious enough to affect the use of most electronic devices?

But those reefs are indeed too weird, jagged and intertwined like a stone forest, and the fish have to get lost. Fortunately, the spirit ship can provide underwater perception, otherwise, no matter how shallow the draft of the building ship is, it will be difficult to avoid hitting the rocks.

By the way, when Zheng Yang thought of fish, he realized that there were algae underwater, but he couldn't find a single fish.

What a weird environment.

It took Zheng Yang an hour to pass the last five nautical miles, and finally he was unable to move forward more than ten meters away from the shore.

The moonlight was blocked by the clouds, so the stars could not be seen here.

The small island was pitch black, and under the searchlights, some broken wrecks of assault boats and rubber boats could be found on the shore.

"Spend the night here first, and go to the island tomorrow to check the environment before looking for the Medusa demon snake!"

When Zheng Yang dropped the anchor, he didn't need to worry that the anchor would be stuck by those reefs. The anchor of the spirit ship was also activated and covered by the magic circle. Since Zheng Yang refined the space teleportation seal, he could teleport the anchor back with a single thought.

Even, as an extension of the spirit boat circle, Zheng Yang can extend the depth of perception infinitely to the bottom of the sea through the anchor, and through the contact of the anchor, transmit things on the bottom of the sea to the ship, including creatures.

So he can actually do deep sea salvage very easily, but needs to load a longer anchor line. At present, the anchor cable of the building ship is only 100 meters.

In the same way, Zheng Yang can also fix a set of boat poles, cover them with magic circles and use them for sea fishing. As long as big fish touch the fishing line, they can be caught directly. Of course, that fishing method has no soul!

The smell of food wafted from the first floor, and Seyulari had finished cooking.

Zheng Yang left the cab and twisted his waist unnaturally halfway, always feeling uncomfortable.

"Ordinary people entering this sea area are indeed prone to problems. The influence of this chaotic magnetic field alone is unbearable."

Seyulali's cooking skills are relatively average. She is used to taking canned food directly and eating it after simple processing. Zheng Yang was not picky, he devoured it, and had time to talk:

"There are many wrecks of sunken ships on the seabed near here, and the seawater will accelerate the corrosion of metal objects. People have landed on the island before, and there are wreckage of landing craft on the shore. I suspect that those people may have died on the island. So you must be careful tomorrow, Island It could be dangerous."

Seyulari pursed her lips and asked, "Do we need someone to stay vigil tonight?"

This is not necessary, since Alice is here, Zheng Yang will be notified anytime anything happens.

In the past few days, the boss Alice was upset because she was robbed of her berth by Saiyu Lali, and she kept ignoring Zheng Yang. But she will not lose the chain of what she is told.

Zheng Yang shook his head and said, "There's no need to watch the night, I've set up early warning measures on the ship, and I'll know as soon as something happens!"

The influence of the magnetic field made it impossible for the two to practice meditation and sleep, and they could only roll the sheets until late at night. For ordinary people, it is estimated that they will be driven crazy within two or three days.
