Global Exploration: Starting from Decrypting Chernobyl

113: The age of sail! Rosari!”A ship?”

”What ship?!”

Wu Tian was startled, then abruptly sat up from the Deck.

The surrounding crew members, just like Wu Tian, had been lying on the Deck, exhausted and gasping for breath, their eyes staring blankly.

Now, hearing the data recorder’s uncertain and surprised voice,

Everyone immediately sat up!

They turned their heads and looked towards the data recorder.

”A...”

The data recorder, standing on the rail at the Bow, squinted his eyes, trying his best to look at the ship in the thick fog in the distance, then he swallowed softly...”Gulp!”

”Three-masted...sailing ship!”

”...”

”A three-masted sailing ship?”

Wu Tian was stunned.

Then a bad feeling rose in his heart.

Three-masted sailing ships were very popular during the age of sail because their capacity was similar to that of a full-rigged ship, but they required fewer crew members, making them very suitable for use as merchant ships!

But...the age of sail...that was the name for the Age of Discovery in the 14th century!

Moreover!

To date, the newest three-masted sailing ship in the world should be the ’Eagle’ currently in service in the United States!

But that was back in 1936!

Now, in this eerie ’Sea of Misfortune’ in the Bermuda Triangle, such a three-masted sailing ship, which can be said to have originated hundreds of years ago, has been seen?

Wu Tian’s expression became serious.

”Let me see...”

After a few seconds of thought, Wu Tian slowly stood up from the Deck and quickly walked towards the data recorder at the Bow...”Right there!”

Standing beside Wu Tian, the data recorder pointed towards a direction in the fog for Wu Tian.

”Although I can’t clearly see the condition of the hull,”

”But...”

”All three of its masts have sails raised, which is very conspicuous!”

”...”

”Mmm.”

Wu Tian nodded.

Following the direction of the data recorder’s finger, he looked into the fog at a thirty-degree angle to the side of the Bow.

He saw a tall, black sailing ship slowly moving on the sea not far away, amidst a hazy expanse of white mist.

And...the data recorder was not mistaken.

This truly was a standard three-masted sailing ship!

But the strange thing was...normally, on such calm waters, there would be no way to sail by the power of sails; even a three-masted sailing ship like this could only drift with the current.

Accelerate?

That was impossible.

But the strangeness lay precisely in this: on such calm waters, this three-masted sailing ship had all three of its large sails unfurled.

Why was that?

Waves without wind?

Wu Tian frowned.

He asked the First Mate and crew members who had gathered around him.

”Is there a telescope? Get one, I want to see!”

”Yes!”

The First Mate nodded without hesitation and quickly ran towards the Cabin...”What happened just now?”

Just as Wu Tian and the others were studying what exactly the distant three-masted sailing ship was, the passengers on the Deck, after a period of turbulence, had come to their senses.

They also noticed the current situation of the Mary!

...The roaring, surging waves instantly calmed down.

The swaying, tilting hull also returned to calm after a tremor, and even...the increasingly severe nausea they had felt earlier quickly subsided!

Passengers with good eyesight even dared to look towards the Bow.

When he saw that the Bow was completely calm,

He immediately cheered loudly!

”The whirlpool...”

”The whirlpool seems to have disappeared!”

”What?”

”The whirlpool disappeared?!”

”...”

The people around him, not believing it, rushed to the side of the ship after hearing his cheers, leaned on the railing, and looked towards the Bow not far away.

After a long while...more and more people cheered!

”It’s...”

”It’s true!”

”The large whirlpool at the Bow seems to have disappeared.”

”Even the white mist nearby has thinned; we...”

”Are we saved?”

”Wuwuwu...”

The Asian girl who had been crying in the man’s arms earlier suddenly cried even harder.

She clung tightly to the man beside her.

Her trembling teeth bit her lips until they bled crimson.

”We’re going back now, going back now...”

”We’ll never be separated again!”

”Okay!”

The man hugged the girl tightly.

”Never again...will we be separated!”

His raised head also showed traces of tears.

He looked towards the light slowly radiating from the sky...”...”

”What?”

The steady man, who had been engrossed in writing his will, suddenly stiffened when he heard the shouts.

He then looked up and gazed at the sun gradually appearing in the sky.

After a long while...two streaks of tears appeared on his cheeks.

”Hehe...”

He smiled faintly.

The man crumpled the note in his hand and, with the wind, scattered it into the sea.

”It’s alright!”

”The will is useless now.”

”Tomorrow...”

”Will be another sunny day!”

And the group of students, who had infected more and more people with their singing of Ulan Country folk songs, all had tears streaming down their eyes, but...their singing did not stop!

Instead, it grew louder and louder!

The entire Mary supertanker, after this incident...seemed to have become somewhat different!

...”This...”

”This is too exciting!”

”My Brother Tian directly turned the tide, leading a group of ’professionals’ to forcefully drive the Mary out of the giant underwater whirlpool!”

”Yes!”

”Mom asked why I was watching the live broadcast on my knees.”

”Because my knees have already been given away!”

”This...”

”It’s simply an epic blockbuster!”

”To be fair, in this situation, the resistance of the main rudder of the cruise ship would exceed three tons. These crew members alone would be far from enough. Brother Tian must have exerted great strength!”

”I wonder if you all saw it just now...”

”A huge amount of white smoke rose around my Brother Tian!”

”What’s that?”

”Hehe...”

”The person upstairs doesn’t know, do they? That thing is called ’Fog of Science’!”

”...”

While the passengers on the ship were cheering and the Fans in the bullet chat were relieved and joking,

The First Mate also brought back a telescope.

He handed it to Wu Tian.

”Brother, here’s the telescope!”

”Mmm.”

Wu Tian nodded, took the telescope, and looked towards the distant three-masted sailing ship!

Under the clear telescope lens...the hull of this three-masted sailing ship appeared a decayed black-gray, and on the ship...there was no one!

”Hmm?”

Suddenly!

Wu Tian frowned.

He saw three large characters on the side of the hull...Rosalie!
