Global Fog Survival: I have a built-in editor

Chapter 193, Volunteers

When Li You and countless stormtroopers descended into the dark rain with ropes, time became longer for the armed sailors on the deck.

From time to time, young and strong refugees on the ship appeared from various hatches holding various weapons.

Navigating stormy seas... is never easy.

Even in previous years when sufficient preparations were made, not every giant ship that traveled between the mainland and the Thousand Winds Islands could return to its home port in good condition.

Being able to barely sail back to the port with all the scars is already the most perfect result.

For everyone on the Trade Wind, this is undoubtedly a battle involving everyone's lives.

……

"The boat is listing, the boat is listing!!"

With a somewhat panicked roar, more and more people gathered on the deck started to commotion.

"Starboard, the ship is listing to starboard!!"

Although the tilt angle of the entire giant ship was not large at this time, for the people on the top deck, the physical sensation was already very strong.

"Starboard, starboard...Trade Wind's stormtroopers...have all descended over there!"

Some sailors who had experienced the tasks assigned by Li You just shouted loudly.

"Due to the lack of manpower, the charge captain Li You went to the port side alone, and the rest of the charge team all concentrated on the starboard side to expel the sea monster!"

"..."

As soon as this shout came out, the originally slightly chaotic crowd immediately broke out into an uproar.

"What...? Mr. Li You killed more than hundreds of stormtroopers!"

"Oh my god, this is too unbelievable!!"

"What should we do now? Shall we call Master Li You to come up?"

As everyone discussed, the tilt angle of the whole ship became more and more obvious.

Even, many people are vaguely unable to control their own balance.

"Okay! All quiet!!"

After yelling, Trish, who was appointed by Li You as the deck commander, continued to roar.

"Everyone, move to the port side immediately!"

"We must restore the balance of the Trade Wind!!"

As he said that, he began to rudely use the long stick in his hand to disperse the surrounding armed sailors.

After hearing Trish's order, the sailors and young men who were chattering like a flock of ducks all showed expressions of sudden realization.

Just like that, they swarmed towards the port side.

Perhaps the weight of the hundreds of people on the deck had some effect. After the crowd rushed to the left deck, the entire ship's tendency to roll slowly was gradually alleviated.

Although it hasn't completely returned to normal, at least it's not like it was just now... firmly and slowly marching towards the "turning over".

Seeing that the rolling situation had been somewhat alleviated, Trish glanced around the confused crowd with hazy eyes.

"It can't go on like this!"

"The speed of the stormtroopers in expelling the sea monsters is obviously no longer able to catch up with Mr. Li You..."

"I even suspect that the stormtroopers below are constantly suffering casualties!"

After looking at the crowd with a serious tone and saying such a passage, Trish paused, and then continued:
"Now... I need a group of volunteers!"

"Cable down below the starboard side to reinforce the stormtroopers!!"

"..."

As Trish's words fell, the originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet.

Leave the deck and go below to expel the sea monster?
For most people, this is an idea that has almost never been born.

On the one hand, although the stormtroopers suffered heavy casualties, their treatment was very generous.

And...they have all received special expulsion training.

For people like these on the deck, it's hard enough just hanging on ropes to move around below.

Not to mention, you have to fight under the tentacle attacks of monsters in the sea!

The wordless silence did not last long.

Soon, sparse registrations began to sound, and there were more than 30 "volunteers" in front of Trish.

“Is there only such a small number of people?!”

Staring, Tracy seemed to be in a very unhappy mood.

There are now six to seven hundred people gathered on the deck.

But in the end, only a few people stood up?
In the rest of the crowd, almost everyone avoided Tracy's eyes unnaturally, obviously feeling a little ashamed of their own cowardice.

Just when Trish was about to continue saying something, there was a sudden commotion from the outside of the crowd.

"Captain Hamill is here!"

"Get out, get out!"

"Your Majesty the Captain is here, get out of my way!"

A passage quickly appeared amidst the crowd's expulsion, and the bearded Captain Hamil appeared in the center of the crowd with a group of boatswains.

"Tricy Knight..."

First, he greeted Trish in a low voice and nodded, then Hamil looked at the crowd around him and shouted loudly.

"I heard Tracy Knight's words just now!"

"I also understand everyone's concerns..."

"Here, in the name of the captain of the Trade Wind, I guarantee that the volunteers who died in this mission... have the same compensation standards as the official stormtroopers."

“Absolutely accurate to every house!!”

Among the huge rustling rain, Captain Hamil's voice didn't spread too far.

But the people nearby are constantly spreading his words to the crowd behind.

"..."

After a short silence, the originally thin volunteer crowd quickly became full.

"Register them!!"

Watching the team of volunteers become more and more dense, a group of bosuns behind Hamil barely set up a canopy with the ponchos they carried with them.

Started to record the names and family members of the stormtroopers who temporarily signed up.

Taking advantage of the gap between registration, Captain Hamil also approached Tracy and asked about the situation in a low voice.

"Knight Trish, how is the situation on the deck?"

"..."

"Not so good."

Shaking her head, Tracy continued with a sullen face:

"The number of sea monsters that attacked this time is very large. Just now... the Trade Wind is leaning towards the direction where the stormtroopers gather."

"Our people... are probably dying in large numbers."

"..."

Similar to Tracy's expression, Hamil's expression at this time is also very gloomy.

In addition, there was a lot of rainwater flowing down his beard.

"Maybe we should call someone up and ask about the situation!"

As Captain Hamil said, he nodded to the bosuns around him.

After receiving the instructions, several bosuns immediately greeted the surrounding sailors, selected a few ropes and pulled them upwards.

In a storm, it is not easy to pull up the stormtroopers who are swaying with the wind below.

But with everyone's concerted efforts, several ropes... were all pulled up in the end.

"This is……"

"God of the Sea, this...what happened??"

Looking at several "corpses" that were pulled onto the deck, they were extremely impactful.

The crowd, whose morale was already very low, erupted into a huge commotion again in an instant.
