Chapter 177 Drizzle
At night, in the atrium of the Nightmare Star, miserable green will-o'-the-wisps floated back and forth.
Yang Yi and Su Na are having dinner.
The former was in the period of weight loss and dieting, so he only ate one can of bread to cope with the situation, which was considered one-third full.
The latter eats more delicately.
She used a coconut shell as a bowl, put in chopped dried monkey meat and torn white bread crumbs, then placed it in an iron pot and covered it with a lid to steam it.
Visible fragrance.
Too bad I can't smell it with a mask on.
"You know how to cook?" Yang Yi asked in shock, as if he had discovered a new world.
"Not really good, but much better than you!"
Su Na said perfunctorily, picked up the steamed bread with wooden chopsticks, and put the diced meat into her mouth.
It is not convenient to eat in the fertile sea. After all, you are wearing a mask and you need to take off the mask when eating.
But compared with other difficulties, this inconvenience is nothing.
Yang Yi stared at Su Na, took two bites, swallowed, and then glanced away.
His will is as tough as steel. When it comes to losing weight, he will never let himself be full.
When he has time, he can make one himself, there is no need to stare at what Su Na has in his hand.
Yang Yi looked towards the sea and diverted his attention.
There were no strong winds and waves, but we could see schools of fish swarming on the sea surface vying for food, with constant flapping sounds.
Suddenly, a few drops of water fell on Yang Yi's cheek, and it seemed like it was raining lightly.
He looked up to the sky and saw tiny droplets falling, one of which fell right into his right eye.
Yang Yi blinked unconsciously and wiped it with his hands, and immediately found something abnormal.
Why is this rain so sticky?
He wiped his cheek and found that it was indeed the case. Then he thought of something and immediately took out his large crystal shield and used it as an umbrella to block the drizzle coming from above.
"Suna, there's something wrong with the rain!"
Yang Yi spoke briefly and to the point, interrupting Su Na's eating movements.
The latter also quickly noticed the abnormality.
After all, this rainwater is sticky, and if you get some of it, you will feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the rain was not heavy, and the two quickly took shelter in the captain's cabin.
This rain is like a drizzle in spring, falling like mist.
It is difficult to notice at the beginning. It is not until the body is wet by the rain and you feel discomfort that you will notice the abnormality of the rain.
The two took off their coats and washed them with fresh water to wipe away the raindrops.
This rain should be high-concentration sugar water.
As the water evaporates from the body's surface temperature, the sugar coats the skin like solidified wax.
If you smell it or even lick it, you will definitely find that this substance is very delicious, it is a sweet syrup.
"You got it in your eyes too?"
Su Na found that Yang Yi was constantly flushing his right eye with fresh water.
"I accidentally got a drop of it, so it didn't smear my eyelids." Yang Yi replied.
After cleaning with plenty of fresh water, there was finally no foreign body sensation in his right eye.
"No infection?" Su Na asked.
"No."
Yang Yi checked the status bar to make sure that he did not have the negative state of desire for delicious food.
The rain is still falling.
This rain has an extremely high sugar content. When it sticks to the deck or hull, it turns into a thick syrup. When the sea breeze blows, it solidifies into a sugar layer that is hardened on the surface of the hull.
Yang Yi stood at the window and observed for a while.
Suna used a witch's dagger to scrape off some of the white frosting on the surface of the crystal shield.
This is the previously solidified rainwater, and the amount is very small, so it appears as tiny white sugar spots, like the icing on the Wangwang snow cake, only smaller.
“Delicious honey.
This rainwater has the same composition as the seawater in the fertile sea, but the concentration is higher! "Su Na said.
Yang Yi nodded and walked back.
There are no major changes at sea for the time being.
He confirmed it with three eyes.
Rainwater falling into the sea is diluted, causing the white water to become thicker, but that's about it.
He started checking the weather.
＜Today’s weather＞
It's drizzling, the rain is a bit sweet
Location: Sea of Origin
Sunshine duration: Daybreak in eight hours
Temperature: 20~23℃
Wind strength: Level 3
----------
Next comes the sea map.
The rate of spread of the Fertile Sea has not changed significantly.
After that comes the chat channel.
Players spoke one after another, saying that it was raining.
"Is it raining there? It's so sticky!"
"No."
"I'm starting to cum too! After the water dries, I rub it and it'll be a layer of skin!"
"Damn, it dropped into my eyes. If I hadn't shed so many tears, my eyelids would have been stuck."
"This looks like sugar water. It's very fragrant. It's best not to put it in your mouth."
"So sweet!"
"..."
Yang Yi looked around and could confirm that the rain was gradually covering the entire safe sea area.
About ten minutes later, an announcement popped up in the chat channel.
[System announcement: Due to the internal environment of the Fertile Sea, a tsunami is coming. Players, please be prepared. The boundaries of the Fertile Sea may spread rapidly due to the impact of the tsunami. 】
As soon as this announcement came out, the chat channel exploded.
"Damn it, Tsunami, I knew the system was holding back bad moves!"
"This system can't change the bad habit of sneak attacks, just like a dog can't change eating shit!"
Yang Yi turned off the chat channel and checked the boundary line of the Fertile Sea again.
Although there is no rapid change, once a tsunami comes, I am afraid that this safe sea area will be quickly flooded by white water.
Therefore, it is necessary to secure the supplies in the cabin before the tsunami comes, and at the same time make plans to temporarily sink into the sea.
Because we don’t know how big this tsunami is.
In the worst case scenario, the entire Nightmare Star may be smashed into pieces and swept to the bottom of the sea.
If that were the case, few players would survive.
Yang Yi thought for a while and decided to take action and do what he could.
The first step is to clear out the remnants on the deck and put them all into the cabin to prevent supplies from being lost in the tsunami.
This also includes the clothes, armor, weapons, and various important items placed in the captain's cabin and Suna's room. It is best to bring them all with you.
As for pillows and bedding, these can all be made of fabric, so even if they are destroyed or lost, it doesn’t matter.
After that, the materials in the cabin are secured to prevent them from being damaged or lost.
Fortunately, the two of them had made the food into cans before. As long as they got a suitable wooden barrel and drove the nails into it, they didn't have to worry about the food being contaminated by the white seawater.
"The cabin also needs to be reinforced. It is best to seal the windows, gun ports, and hatches with wooden boards or even steel plates.
In this way, as long as the hull is not damaged and the amount of water ingress is small, the hull will float quickly even if it sinks into the sea. "Su Na suggested.
Yang Yi nodded and approved Su Na's suggestion.
The two of them took action immediately. They first collected the important items in their respective rooms, then each held a large crystal shield and left the room.
The characteristic of this shield is that it is light, strong and huge, and can be used as an umbrella.
But Yang Yi encountered difficulties when opening the door.
The door was stuck due to the rain, and he pushed it hard several times without opening it.
It’s just a nuisance!
Yang Yi glared, turned into a wolf and kicked the door open, and then split up with Su Na.
She went to the cabin first, while Yang Yi was responsible for recovering the items and supplies left on the deck.
The door to the captain's cabin was quickly repaired and closed by skeletal arms.
If the captain's cabin is not damaged by water, it should be able to provide considerable buoyancy.
