The moon was as bright as day, and under the white-cold moonlight, the boundless sea showed a somewhat unfathomable depth. In the darkness of the night, a black sphere with a diameter of about two meters suddenly emerged from the sea and moved towards a small island not far away.
The sphere soon reached the seaside, and was stranded on the white sand beach shortly after the impact of the waves. After the hatch opened, a tall woman jumped out of the sphere with a girl in her arms and landed firmly on the beach.
"Well… "
Hua Mu was dizzy and nauseated, and as soon as she got off the white pillow, she couldn't help kneeling on the ground and vomited. The single-person diving cabin has a small space, and it is a bit cramped for a person like a white pillow to sit alone. Coupled with Hua Mu, the two are simply squeezed inside.
I don't know if it was because of overloading or because it was left for too long and the electricity was damaged - yes, this single-person diving cabin turned out to be powered by electricity - the two went up and down on the bottom of the sea for a long time, and almost thought they would not be able to get up.
Because of tension, bumps and deep-sea phobia, Hua Mu's nerves were tense all the way, and the stomach's endurance also reached its limit at this time.
The white pillow patted her on the back, and only picked her up again after she had vomited enough.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Hua Mu's mouth was bitter, his breath was dying, and his eyes were full of tears.
"dying… "
"We're back."
"That's thank goodness..."
She is ready to die! I thought I was super happy to find a submarine, but I didn't expect it to be a lame boat.
If I had known it earlier, I would not sit on it, and I almost lost my life.
"Meow ow..."
The reserve grain fell out of the diving cabin in a daze, and fell on the beach with shaking legs, just like Hua Mu.
These days of expeditions are really exhausting, like a lifetime.
"I can't take it anymore, it's fine anywhere, let me sleep first."
Although the baskets were not brought back, the things were barely stuffed into the cabin.
"We'll rest here first that night."
The sentinel quickly sorted out a camp on the beach, and after a simple clean up, he fell asleep with Hua Mu, who had already fallen asleep.
This night, the two of them slept in the dark, and didn't wake up to the sound of the waves until the third day of the sun. The grain reserves were squeezed between the two, and the white pillow was drooling.
Hua Mu opened her eyes in a daze, and the moment she saw the sun, she almost cried with joy.
White Pillow woke up earlier than her, and was staring at the stranded diving cabin in a daze.
"White pillow?"
"Miss, are you awake? Do you feel any discomfort?"
"I feel better after a good night's sleep," Hua Mu thought that the food reserve was getting in the way, so she took her aside and leaned against Bai Zhen's arms, "What are you looking at?"
"I was wondering... if this pod could come in handy."
White pillow has been thinking about how to leave the island, not only waiting for rescue, but also a more proactive plan. It's just that the situation at sea is unpredictable, and unless she has to, she won't act rashly without finding a surefire way.
The appearance of the diving cabin gave her a glimmer of hope. After learning that the island was the Frankenstein base, the idea of voluntarily leaving became stronger and stronger in her heart. So many countries have been looking for this place for so many years, and there are so many wrecked ships around. The hope that the rescue team can search here is too slim.
After the thrilling underwater trip last night, Hua Mu didn't want to sit on this ghost again even after being killed.
"It's almost out of power. It's been left for so long and I don't know what's wrong. What's the use?"
The white pillow looked at her, "Miss, have you thought about leaving this island?"
Of course I thought about it! Every time she felt inconvenient, Hua Mu would like to be at home. Whenever she misses her father and aunt during Chinese New Year and festivals, her desire to go back will be particularly strong.
But that's just thinking about it. Apart from waiting for rescue, what can the two do
"You don't mean to say... use this single diving cabin?" Forgetting the size, I don't know when this guy will run out of electricity. When there is no power, it will either sink directly to the bottom of the sea or drift on the sea.
The white pillow was also a little hesitant, "It might still work if you fix it."
For electricity, consider dismantling the small nuclear reactor generators guarding the robots, and there are always solutions in other areas.
"Too reluctant. It seems that this is for short-distance diving, and there is not enough space for the two of us." After only half an hour, she was almost suffocated to death, not to mention how long she has to do an adventure at sea
"But... Miss, you should understand by now that the possibility of us being found is very low."
Hua Mu choked for a moment, then said after a while, "If it wasn't for my aunt and father finding us, I wouldn't have left this island by myself!"
She has seen the cruelty of the sea, and even a modern boat cannot guarantee safety, let alone in such a small diving cabin that has broken down
Although there are many inconveniences on the island, in the end, there is no danger to life, and life is also nourishing. Why do you have to take that risk
"Miss, I understand your anxiety, but if we just wait, we don't know when we can go back."
"That's better than dying!"
Both of them are still young, even if they wait on the island for ten years, there is not much loss. She finally got together with the white pillow. Losing her life at this time was too much of a loss!
Why doesn't what Hua Mu said make sense? Bai Zhen didn't have all the assurance in his heart, and he was even more reluctant to argue with Hua Mu.
"That's the truth... By the way, Miss, are you really not feeling any discomfort?"
"No, why do you keep asking this question, how can I be so vulnerable?"
No, logically speaking, it is normal to feel tired and powerless at such times. Sentinels' fatigue builds up much faster than guides, but as long as they are supported by guides, they can recover very quickly. The guide is the opposite. Although they have a long battery life, if the consumption is too large, it often takes a long time to recover.
Although Hua Mu was too tired, her physical condition was obviously better than any guide Bai Zhen had ever seen before. Spiritual overdraft has a great impact on the guide. If it is lighter, it will not be able to maintain the spiritual body. If it is heavier, the body will experience tinnitus, trembling, and even syncope and incontinence.
In the era of underdeveloped medical level, many guides even died directly due to overdraft.
"Don't you feel dizzy and nauseous?"
"Didn't I faint? I vomited so badly yesterday!"
That's just because of seasickness.
"What about tinnitus and cold sweat?"
Hua Mu slightly left the embrace of White Pillow, looked at her inexplicably and said, "I'm dying of heat, why is there a cold sweat?"
Although it has long been understood that the abilities of members of the royal family are far beyond that of ordinary sentries and guides, the white pillow is a little incredible to be so powerful.
You know, what Hua Mu supports is actually the spiritual power of two people. After removing the monitor, White Pillow obviously felt the increase in the upper limit of mental power, and the demand for the guide element also increased in a short period of time. Although the combined pacification of the sentinel and the guide has been combined, the burden on the guide is less than the general pacification, but it is still a consumption for the guide—her demand is no longer very large.
What's more, Luna's assistance to Hati during the battle also consumed a lot of mental energy, and Hua Mu's current state is too relaxed.
At first, Bai Zhen thought that she didn't want to worry about her, but after looking at it, she felt that it was not the case.
Hua Mu saw her staring at him faintly, and realized what she meant with hindsight.
"Is it normal for me to feel uncomfortable?"
"It probably wouldn't be so easy to switch to any guide I've seen."
Leaving aside the Queen for the time being, Hua Mu's mental capacity alone is obviously a level higher than that of Pei Nu, who is also a member of the royal family. Pei Nu is already one of the best guides in the world. Although mental capacity is not the only criterion for measuring the ability of a guide, Hua Mu's talent is still shocking.
"Could it be that I'm actually very good?"
Hua Mu couldn't help showing a smug expression when she heard the meaning of Bai Zhen's words.
"Well, quite... no, very powerful."
"Is that so? Ah, as I said earlier, Miss Ben is very talented, and there is nothing she can't do if she wants to!"
"Is such that."
The sentry showed a doting smile and praised sincerely.
Instead, Hua Mu got a little embarrassed, cleared her throat and said, "Okay, don't give me ecstasy soup... At this time, let's go home first."
Yes, anyway, I have to go home first and then think about it in the long run.
The single-person diving cabin is small in size, relatively simple in structure, and light in overall weight. The white pillow pushed the diving cabin to the beach and fixed it briefly, caught some fish, and then took Hua Mu back to the hut on the mountain.
In the next few days, the two slowly returned to their previous lives. Bathrooms and toilets are built, household items are added, more tools are made, new vegetable oils are developed, and so on, as if everything is back on track.
But whether it is Hua Mu or Bai Zhen, they often think of the experience there. Not only caring about the identity of the sentinel, the death of the blue whale mother and child is also embarrassing.
After Hua Mu came back, he flipped through some records, and occasionally a little melancholy appeared in his heart.
However, the completion of the bathroom brought her a lot of joy, although it was not in time for her birthday, which was spent in those three days of carnival, but getting a hot bath was more gratifying than anything.
The water storage tank at the top of the bathroom is wrapped in black plastic cloth, so long as there is sunlight, there will be hot water for a daytime bath.
Life is a little more comfortable. Hua Mu really doesn't have much dissatisfaction at the moment. The thing that White Pillow mentioned before was quickly forgotten by her.
But the sentinel didn't forget, she had been thinking about it since she came back from the base. A single dive cabin may indeed not be able to afford a long trip for two people, but it can save lives in a pinch. If you carry it, the safety at sea will be greatly increased.
If a ship can be built - there are a lot of ready-made materials, there should be a lot of useful things in the base, and the two have a great chance to go back.
Although I don't know how long it will take, but because I don't know, I should have made preparations sooner—in any case, she will bring the eldest back home safely.
