"In this way, the White Rose cannot arrive at KSman Harbor at the scheduled time to replenish fresh water and food. The fresh water stored on the boat is probably consumed in ten days. There is a lot of food. If it really doesn't work, you can also satisfy your hunger. We have to find an island to replenish fresh water." Michelle said to himself.
Li Yi returned to his room in disappointment. It was a pity that he failed to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Blas. The poisonous snake was probably going to start to target him in a plan. It was obvious that the murderous intent was ready to move in his eyes.
The rainstorm did not mean to stop at all. The moisture spread into the cabin. Even when the fire was on fire, I felt the cold and dampness. Feld was most disgusted with the rainy days. He wore a wool blanket, closest to the fire. About three or four hours later, it was late at night, but the rain had not stopped yet, and Li Yi fell asleep peacefully.
When he woke up very early the next day, he didn't hear the sound of rain. It seemed that the rainstorm had passed. When he came out to see, the fog was steaming outside and he couldn't tell the direction clearly. The sun only shrank into a vague dot on the top of his head, "We won't lose our direction, right?" Unfortunately, Li Yi guessed it.
It was noon, and the fog had just dissipated, the sea was calm and there was no turbulence. Now I didn’t care much about it, so I could only burn the spirit crystals and move forward. If the spirit crystals could not encounter monsoons or currents after use, I could only stay at the sea and wait for death.
Michelle held a group meeting and understood this matter, probably because he hoped that everyone could unite and overcome the difficulties. At this time, Li Yi sneered and said, "Captain, you are not decisive enough to harm us. If you started using fuel yesterday, you can not only drive away sea worms, but also not deviate from the course, but we will bear the wrong result together."
"If you are unhappy, you can get out. You are not welcome here!" Brass took the speech and scolded him bluntly. When he heard Li Yi accusing the beautiful captain, the other explorers were also a little unhappy.
"Haha, you guys, if I hadn't discovered the sea worm first yesterday, your fate would have been worse than it is 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 his neurotic habit of watching the storm on the deck, even if they realized it was too late, the sea worm would bite the cabin the moment they touched the ship, and there was no ship. The Explorer team was a wrecked dog at sea.
"I apologize to you. It's true that I'm not calm enough, I'm looking forward and making the situation serious. Please believe me again now, can you get through the difficulties together?" Michelle apologized with a whisper, with a crying voice in his tone.
"What do you care about me? When you meet a useless captain, you can have a weak decisiveness, so you have to part with them. I don't have to work alone on your ship yet." Li Yi would not be polite to her just because the captain is a woman. He has insight into the nature of human beings and does not regard gender beauty and ugliness as a standard for judging good and evil.
"Ah. Yours are so harsh..." Michelle covered her mouth. She didn't know why Li Yi was like this. Maybe she had never been criticized like this in the past.
"Sharp? I'm just telling the truth. Brass, don't look at me with this kind of gaze. I know that you were born in a big family and you don't lack spiritual crystals. When you come to this boat, there are other impure purposes. So what about other people? You are also born in a big family. Do you work for people for free?" Li Yi looked around and said, "Express the true thoughts in your heart. Instead of doing this, it's better to let me be the captain. I will perfectly discover the wealth in the sea and strengthen myself in the plunder. You will have endless spiritual crystals. If you miss the old captain, or have any personal thoughts about Michelle, then I can make a plan. You will implement it. In name, she will be the captain. These days have passed, and you also understand my strength and strategy. Believe me, I will definitely make more money than you have now."
Everyone lowered their heads to think, and had to admit that Li Yi's words were very inflammatory. They were not saints, nor did they follow Captain Michel because of their personality worship. They also had wives and children to raise at home, or wanted to save some money to find a wife, make some plans for the rest of their life, or want 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 the eyes of a gentle camel in the desert were looking at you, and he didn't know what this guy was thinking about all day long.
The ugly face stood up, his aura was against Li Yi, and he was not at all inferior. He said, "Maybe you can earn more with you, but that money will never be as clean as the reward Michel gives us, and he feels so at ease."
"Clean? I feel at ease? There is still money?" Li Yi laughed. "Making money is like catching oil from a dirty kitchen. Don't be afraid of dirty hands. Just wash it clean afterwards. Don't regard ignorance as kindness, and other people's kindness as the motivation to lure you into committing crimes. If you want to make clean money, don't be an explorer!"
"Maybe yours is right, maybe this world itself is like this, but I just want peace of mind." The ugly face seemed to never argue with others, but just expressed his own opinions gently, but the more this became more and more impeccable.
"What a person who only wants peace of mind. Although I don't agree with your point of view, I respect your dreams. You only want peace of mind. Others also need to make money and get some money, even if they step on the body of their opponents." Li Yi shrugged contemptuously and turned his eyes to the man with a hat.
"My requirements are very low. I don't have the ambition to establish my own power and kingdom at sea, nor do I want to join that alliance of sea explorers. I will go back in a while. I just want to make some money at sea, a lot of money. Don't you think so? I provide planning and guarantee profits, how about it?" Li Yi asked.
The man with hat looked at his leather shoes with some embarrassment. After a while, he said, "I'd better follow Captain Michel. After all, it doesn't matter if I make less money for so many years. Anyway, I don't lack spiritual crystals."
"I support Captain Michel, too." Old Fran rolled his eyes and said.
"I have always supported you! You, a bastard who is in trouble, have the conspiracy failed, right?" Brass would not miss the opportunity to oppose Li Yi, and he was sarcastic.
Li Yi saw it clearly. Except for the neutral party who was silent, no one supported him. He snorted coldly and left. In fact, he had no intention of seizing power just because he just made them disagree. Those neutral parties hesitant were the result.
"Thank you, thank you!" Michelle was so moved that she wanted to cry out.
At this time, a sailor stumbled over and reported: "Captain, Captain. There is an island!"
Li Yi hurriedly took out his telescope and looked ahead. On the sea level, there was an island covered with trees and rocks. It was about thirty or forty miles in diameter. Strangely, the trees on the island had died and seemed to have been drought for many days. On such a vast sea, some islands were not favored by rain, which is common, but there were obvious traces of human activities on the beaches and reefs.
As the boat gradually approached the shore, Michelle frowned and asked the man with a hat: "This island seems to have been dry for many days. Will there be water on the island?"
"Who knows? Since there is someone living, there must be water!" The man with hat answered without comment. In fact, he was not sure.
These isolated desert islands on the sea often have some wrecked ships drifting here, and the people above are waiting for rescue while living on them. For generations, they have become accustomed to it. Even if a ship passes by, they have no intention of leaving the island and returning to the mainland. This is because they have been institutionalized, used to the surrounding environment, and are afraid of change.
The boat leaned against the shore, but Li Yi did not choose to stay on the boat, but followed the boat to the explorer team who were looking for water on the shore. The two old men stayed to see the boat.
The island was dead silent, the ground was cracked, and thick salt frost was formed. Only drought-resistant and salt-resistant plants could grow in such salt-alkali land on the beach. The terrain in front had undulating, and some dead branches of the trees were spontaneously ignited into coke because they were too dry. There were traces of moss on the raised cracked land. It was obvious that this place was once a dense forest with abundant water and soil.
Going further forward, a quiet village appeared in front of you. From the scale, it could accommodate fifty to one hundred people. The cold and extreme dryness are both fatal natural environments, and I wonder if anyone else can survive.
"Is there anyone? Are there still living people?" a sailor with a thick voice shouted, and the voice came from a long way from the empty village.
Unexpectedly, a rumbling sound rang out, and many people who were thin as dry firewood came out of the shadow of the house. Their bodies were covered with simple straw and shivering in the cold wind. Their eyes were big and bulging due to lack of water and hunger. Their bodies were ragged and their brown skin were traces of suffering.
They were talking about the distorted city-state language and couldn't understand what they were muttering. Seeing their pitiful appearance, Michel couldn't help but feel a surge of compassion in her heart. She ordered: "Please some of our water for them to drink, and bring these people with you, otherwise they would all die of thirst and starve here."
Li Yi watched coldly, and he found that these survivors were all adult men. It was strange that there was blood on the corners of their mouths. A terrible guess came into his heart. He walked straight into a nearby room. A refugee struggled to stand up and wanted to stop him, but he kicked him away.
As expected, a female corpse was lying in the room, her neck was covered with tooth marks, her blood vessels were bitten open, and her breasts were completely gnawed, leaving two shocking blood holes, and her abdomen was still pregnant with an unborn baby.
"A group of beasts, when they are extremely thirsty, they kill women and children who are unable to resist, and drink their blood to survive." Li Yi became angry and turned around and shot the refugee who was about to pounce on him when he saw the matter was exposed. The musket broke half of his head and splashed his brain all over the wall.
When the gunshots were heard, the explorers all ran over to see what happened. When they saw the female corpse in the room, they understood everything. Michelle was even more stunned and she simply fainted.
"Put your boring sympathy!" Li Yi mocked him as usual, throwing the musket to Feld, "Kill all these beasts."
This time, no one objected, and even turned his ugly face away. Angry flames appeared in his eyes. He didn't understand how humans could treat their kind so cruelly and swallow each other in desperate situations. All morality and order were not as good as the desire for survival.
Feld has no psychological burden for the massacre of human beings, and has been with Li Yi for a long time. His views on human beings are deeply rooted - the dirty soul that whitewas the evil and the body that has no edible value, but they dominate the world. Gunshots sounded one after another, and he shot these refugees one by one.
"These people are too cruel and inhumane. Treat the same kind of people like this and treat weak women as food!" The man with hat looked disgusted, and he was almost vomiting.
He dug out a big pit and buried all the victims of this settlement. The ugly face even recited a eulogy, but Li Yi was not satisfied with giving up. He mocked him quietly, but everyone could hear it: "If we also encounter such a desperate situation, who will you eat first? Who will you eat in the end? Anyway, I know that you will not let the beloved Captain Michel eat yours one by one."
"You are such a demon. You have such heart-wrenching words! What are you thinking?" Just when everyone was silent, the ugly face stood up and scolded.
"What am I thinking? It's very simple, just an idea. To adjust the atmosphere, why can I put forward such an idea without any 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 for survival. I will seek a more decent way of dying, rather than living by eating people!" Li Yi's words were loud and clear, "You are a demon? Can't you personally attack the person who proposed this idea in the face of such a questioning idea, trying to deny my correctness, so you are false, who is the demon? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will become a beast in a desperate situation? You are not calm inside, so you are emotional and you are afraid of me."
Li Yi approached his ugly face step by step, looking straight into his eyes, every word was heartbroken.
"No, you are wrong. If you encounter such a situation, I will let others eat me and let my body alone exchange for more people's survival. Don't oppress me from the commanding heights of morality, because I am not an ugly person with a dark heart, so such oppression will not work." The ugly face retorted strongly.
"Is that so? You can go to heaven after death. Are you a Christian? But those who eat your meat are going to hell. Your subconscious mind has allowed more people to go to hell to heaven. Is this your morality?" Li Yi did not show any weakness. He wanted to hit the ugly face's heart and expose the darkness in his heart. He will never recover from this. The best way to destroy this kind of mental cleanliness is to let them see their own filth.
"Okay, stop arguing! What's there to argue about!" Michelle woke up slowly and ended the speculation and struggle between them.
