In this era, it is not surprising that an ocean-going ship goes lost.
The radio transceiver is damaged, as is the backup unit.
The ship entered an unknown magnetic field area and all compasses failed.
Coupled with last night's drifting, the ferry deviated from its normal route.
Now, even the most experienced captain, Old Sea Dog, cannot know where he is in the sea, let alone send a message for help.
It is actually very dangerous to encounter this situation.
If the ship's engine is damaged and no supply island is found, even those with supernatural powers may be trapped alive.
At this time, when the captain announced that the ship was lost, there was a sudden silence in the restaurant.
Several ladies covered their faces and sobbed quietly.
The men looked solemn and thought of some bad legends, such as Don't Starve Game, Ghost Cruise, etc.
There were only a few children who didn't know what was going on. Their big eyes flickered and they looked at the adults with confusion.
…
"This is really..."
Vidali was also shocked, grabbing her camera but losing interest in taking pictures.
In fact, Fang Xian felt that if she could take a series of photos of everyone's expressions at this time, she might win a prize or something.
"Don't worry, we may not have deviated too far from the main channel..." Eric comforted: "When the port discovers that the Heart of the Sea is missing, it will definitely organize a search and rescue."
"hope so……"
Wei Daili's eyes were a little dazed: "Sorry... I want to go back and be quiet."
Bad news comes one after another.
After the occasional clearing up, the sky became gloomy again, and the old seals scolded the sea as a moody bitch, which was not unreasonable.
"Look, there is an island."
Suddenly, cheers came from the deck.
A group of men hurriedly ran to the deck and looked not far away. They could clearly see a small island with some vegetation on it. They couldn't help but cheer and fly their hats high into the sky.
There is vegetation on the island, which means there may be fresh water resources. With this, you can hold on for a long time and wait for rescue.
After putting down the boat and briefly inspecting the hydrological environment near the island, the captain announced that the ship would dock at this unknown island to avoid the coming storm.
Moreover, some gentlemen are also invited to voluntarily sign up to explore and collect resources on the island.
'Stupid decision.'
Fang Xian looked at the island and suddenly felt inspired that it was like a trap that had been laid out long ago.
The oppressive dark clouds behind seemed to turn into black hounds, driving the prey into the pockets.
However, he did not remind him.
No matter what is said now, people will not believe it. They have regarded that island as their only hope.
"Roka, I think we should talk."
At this time, Eric came to Fang Xian's side, opened his coat, and revealed a secret keeper badge inside.
'Medal of the Silent?'
Fang Xian looked at the golden badge with some curiosity.
This is the highest honor a new investigator can receive, and even he can only receive a silver one.
"I'm from Bolong City... Something is wrong here. I saw blood on the deck... The crew was very nervous. Someone among them was missing... But most people speculated that the unlucky guy was killed last night.
The waves rolled into the sea, and the blood stains on the deck were traces of his own scrapes and injuries..."
Eric said seriously.
"With the storm last night, if you were thrown into the sea, the chance of survival is almost zero." Fang Xian made a classic pose of a famous detective and said with his left hand on his chin.
"No, that was not an accident at all, but an attack!"
Eric said solemnly: "I suspect it is a supernatural creature in the sea. There may be danger on that island."
"But... we have no choice." Fang Xian shrugged: "How about you try to convince these people."
"It's useless." Eric smiled bitterly: "They believe more in the guns in their hands. They jokingly said that even if there is a sea monster, the firepower in their hands is enough to deal with it."
"Didn't you try to hypnotize the captain or first mate?" Fang Xian asked curiously.
"Ahem... What do you think hypnosis is? A supernatural power? No... it's just a medical method. It doesn't have the power to confuse people's hearts just by looking at me. It requires the cooperation of the target and a quiet environment...
And even if I can do it, the Keeper's code does not allow me to do so." Eric replied righteously.
"Okay...then what do you want from me?"
Fang Xian had a deep understanding of the stubbornness of the secret keeper.
"When people go to explore the island later, they may encounter danger. I have already signed up, but there are too many teams. I need help."
Eric looked at Fang Xian sincerely.
"Okay, I'm also somewhat interested in that island."
Fang Xian smiled and agreed.
…
A few hours later, the ship anchored near the island.
Several lifeboats were lowered, and each one was led by a sailor and rushed to the beach.
Fang Xian was placed on a lifeboat, with six people in total. Surprisingly, Vidali also signed up, got permission, and was clutching the camera in her hand.
Seeing Fang Xian's glance, she forced a smile: "After thinking about it, I realized the reality. If this is the end of my life journey, at least I have to leave something interesting behind."
"Ma'am, please believe in our expertise and it!"
The leading sailor said angrily and pointed to his double-barreled shotgun.
"Of course, Sailor Roger, I have great faith in your ability, and I also believe that you will be able to lead us to find water and food, and bring us hope..."
Fang Xian smiled while paddling hard.
When they approached the beach, the group got off the lifeboat and dragged the lifeboat to the beach while stepping on the water up to their knees.
“Nice environment.”
Roger looked at the dark vegetation not far away and whistled: "If a storm comes tonight, I would rather spend the night here instead of on the boat..."
Fang Xian glanced around.
The dark rocks seemed to form various weird shapes, like some ferocious sculptures, polished works of art!
"Huh?"
Vidali was looking for a suitable place to take pictures. After walking around a rock, she suddenly screamed: "Look!"
Fang Xian turned to the other side of the reef and saw a trace of white murals on the black reef.
"Here... there are traces of human existence, which is great."
A passenger cheered.
"It is true that there are indigenous people, but it does not necessarily mean safety, hehe..." Roger laughed strangely twice and opened the safety of the shotgun: "I hope they are not cannibals, and they will not entertain us warmly with poisoned blow darts!"
