After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

"Attention everyone, we have officially entered the westerly zone. Please stay in the cabin and do not go out. Pay attention to safety!"

In the cockpit, Su Mo directed the crew to make a ship-wide broadcast.

Although the hull of the ship was shaking very badly, he did not have any obvious reaction. The crew members who had experienced wind and waves and traveled through the Bering Sea were not so lucky. Although they did not vomit on the spot, they are still almost dead now. His face turned pale, and he looked like he couldn't stand it anymore.

Upon seeing this, Su Mo immediately made personnel adjustments and asked them to return to the cabin in batches to rest, while he and a few crew members stayed in the cockpit.

After persisting like this for several hours, the wind and waves outside not only did not weaken, but continued to strengthen. When the replacement crew arrived, Su Mo was already feeling dizzy and just wanted to lie down and sway with the ship.

Although he was very sleepy, Su Mo couldn't go back to his room to sleep.

Because according to the weather forecast, it will take at least three more days for them to pass through the westerly belt! He must adjust the navigation route from time to time according to changes in swells to ensure the safety of the Mosasaurus.

"This Devil's Zephyr Belt really deserves its reputation!"

Su Mo laughed at himself. Although he had no appetite now, he was still going to eat first and then bring a portion to Ye Qingchen.

But as soon as he entered the cafeteria, he was a little dumbfounded and doubted whether he had missed his meal.

The canteen, which used to be very busy in the past, was deserted. Only a few people were dining. When he came to the window where food was served, he found that several delicacies that used to be queued up were almost untouched at this time, and there were still a lot of food left. A big basin full.

It seems that everyone either can't eat it or is worried that they will vomit if they eat too much.

Su Mo gave a wry smile, then took care of himself and ordered a few dishes, packed another one for Ye Qingchen, and then took the dinner plate and prepared to find a place to eat.

He searched around and soon saw an acquaintance, so he immediately walked over.

That was Professor Chen, the leader of the scientific expedition team.

Although his hair was gray, he was in very good spirits at this time. He was eating slowly and seemed not to be affected by seasickness.

Su Mo placed the dinner plate on the dining table covered with non-slip mats and joked: "Professor Chen, did you vomit today?"

Seeing what he said was interesting, Professor Chen smiled and shook his head: "I'm okay. In fact, this is my third time coming to Antarctica. I'm used to the situation here, but if I remember correctly, you should be the first one." Let’s do it once, but it looks like you’re in pretty good shape.”

"It is indeed the first time." Su Mo took a bite of rice and said, "But I have been to the Bering Sea once before coming here. Although the wind and waves there are not as severe as here, I am somewhat immune."

Hearing this, Professor Chen immediately gave a thumbs up: "When I was your age, I had never been to the sea. No wonder the higher-ups chose you to be the captain this time. You really have a bright future!"

"You're flattered." Su Mo smiled and said, "If nothing else happens tomorrow we will get through the largest swell in the westerly belt. In three days of sailing, we can pass through the westerly belt and enter Antarctica."

Professor Chen nodded approvingly: "Almost, but when we get there, we have to stay in the ice floe area of ​​the Ross Sea for a few days. I need to conduct a marine ecological environment survey there, and I will need your help then. "

"Do not worry."

Su Mo finished the last bite of food on the plate and wiped his mouth while saying, "Since this is not your first time here, can you tell me about the situation there?"

Seeing that he was interested in his topic, Professor Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately told Su Mo about the marine life of the Ross Sea in detail.

The Ross Sea is the largest bay around Antarctica and an important source of Antarctic bottom water. There are many magical fish among them, which are of great research value, the most important of which is Antarctic krill!

As mentioned before, this kind of shrimp is of great economic value. Countries in the world that have the ability to carry out scientific research in Antarctica have attached great importance to this creature in recent years.

However, due to the special environment of Antarctica, it is not easy to find out where this shrimp population gathers.

Professor Chen has been to Antarctica twice in the past few years, but he still has not been able to study clearly the distribution patterns of Antarctic krill. He is not young now, so he wants to give it a last try before retiring.

"If Antarctic krill can be brought into the rice bowl of the Chinese people, it will be a great contribution to the present generation and a benefit to the future."

"..."

"This time I brought the most advanced fish detection radar in the country. I hope it can help me fulfill my wish! Oh, it would be great if I could see what's going on underwater."

Speaking of this, Professor Chen couldn't help but sigh, shaking his head and sighing.

“Antarctic krill are in the Ross Sea?!”

Su Mo was refreshed. Of course he had not forgotten his mission to Antarctica this time!

Professor Chen and others were limited by environmental factors and were unable to locate the Antarctic krill population, but Su Mo was different. Now he had the Poseidon Path, and his attribute points of amphibious respiration and Poseidon endurance had been improved a lot. This time I also brought a very advanced diving suit. Although I can't say that I can stay in the cold water of Antarctica all the time, it is definitely no problem to go down and explore!

Coupled with the fact that he has a universal fish detection radar, it shouldn't be difficult to find Antarctic krill.

After all, as Professor Chen said, if you can clearly see the underwater situation, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

And Su Mo can do just that!

In the following time, Professor Chen and Su Mo became more and more interested in talking. It was not until the aunt in the cafeteria came to clear away the dishes that they left the cafeteria. Professor Chen also lived in the top cabin, so they continued to travel together.

But just as the two of them were passing by the warehouse where supplies and equipment were stored, Su Mo suddenly saw a sneaky figure.

"Who!"

Su Mo shouted loudly and quickly stepped forward to block the man's way. The warehouse was filled with equipment, such as sleighs for transporting goods and so on.

At this time, the man was also startled by Su Mo and turned around quickly.

This is a man with slightly white hair, his face is dull and a bit bitter, and his actual age cannot be seen at all.

"what are you doing here?"

Su Mo looked this guy up and down, very wary.

The other party moved his lips and replied dully: "I...I wanted to go to the infirmary to get seasickness medicine, but I accidentally got lost."

Hearing this, Su Mo frowned. The infirmary was indeed not far from here, and the passage inside the cabin was indeed a bit complicated. It was not impossible for newcomers to accidentally get lost.

At this time, Professor Chen also came over and said in surprise: "Zhao Songtao, what are you doing here without sleeping?"

"Teacher, I want to go to the infirmary..."

The man named Zhao Songtao repeated what he had just said.

After listening to his explanation, Professor Chen nodded, pointed to the passage on the right and said, "Go over there and you will find the infirmary at the end."

"Okay, thank you teacher."

After saying that, Zhao Songtao staggered toward the infirmary.

Looking at his retreating figure, Su Mo was still a little worried.

"Professor Chen, is this person trustworthy?"

"Don't worry!" Professor Chen immediately confirmed. "Zhao Songtao is my student. He is an honest man and very dull. Apart from doing research these years, he has not cared about other things at all."

"That's good."

Su Mo nodded. Although he didn't say anything, he still made up his mind to have someone come and check the warehouse.
