Chapter 123 Icebreaker Arrives
The cold wind at the port was biting.
The broken windows were creaking.
Lin Shi and the Demon King had been on the rooftop of a logistics office building outside the port for half a day.
According to the information obtained from Qin Shuang, Major General Lin will return with the icebreaker to dock at Donggang Port today.
And he will try to copy the icebreaker today.
Lin Shi looked at the sea. Thick ice had formed on the sea near the coast.
There was no sign of the icebreaker yet.
At this time, in addition to a large number of containers that were mostly buried in snow, there were also several small safe houses built by the troops at the port at some unknown time.
Like Lin Shi's safe house, they were all semicircular, and from a distance they looked like bowls upside down in the port.
The inspiration for his design of the safe house came from the Inuit snow house, and the army obviously took this into consideration.
Compared with the square structure, the semicircle is obviously more conducive to resisting strong winds and blizzards.
It can also prevent heat loss in the house.
(Justify the name of the grave! (づ●─●)づ)
But in terms of defense, Lin Shi's safe house is definitely better.
After all, under the current conditions, it is extremely difficult to build a shelter like Lin Shi's without relying on machinery.
Lin Shi guessed that these small safe houses must be for the soldiers who will guard the icebreakers at that time.
Icebreakers are so important that it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the country's heavy equipment in the end of the world.
After arriving at the port, they will definitely be closely guarded.
If you want to approach on land, you will inevitably conflict with these soldiers. Lin Shi's idea is to complete the replication underwater.
The sea water near the port is now frozen. He has observed that the thickness of the ice surface is more than one meter thick.
When the icebreaker arrives at the port soon, the ice on the sea surface breaks, which is the best time for Lin Shi to approach the icebreaker.
It is approaching noon.
Seeing that the icebreaker has not arrived after waiting for a long time, Lin Shi sat on the ground, took out some meat from the space, and had lunch with the devil.
Seeing Lin Shi taking the meat, the demon king's eyes lit up.
A few days ago, after Lin Shi took away the black bear's body, he absorbed the original force in it and increased himself by more than 100 source units.
The remaining black bear meat naturally could not be wasted.
That night, he enjoyed a sumptuous black bear feast with the demon king and the giant panda.
Roasted bear paws, braised bear meat, stir-fried bear liver, boiled bear tongue, etc., a large table full of dishes.
Of course, it is impossible to eat six or seven hundred kilograms of black bear meat at once.
The remaining Lin Shi also made barbecue, dried meat, and other dishes, and put them in the space to eat slowly.
Obviously, the demon king has a special liking for bear meat. When he saw Lin Shi taking the meat, he looked at it eagerly, and his tail shook quickly.
He was so anxious that he almost spoke human words.
Lin Shi looked at it with amusement, and he had the idea of teasing in his heart. He took out a piece of other meat from the space and handed it over.
"Eat it."
Seeing that it was not bear meat, the demon king's tail stopped at once.
A pair of heterochromatic eyes seemed to be able to speak, looking at Lin Shi with a little disappointment and grievance.
"Hahaha!"
Lin Shi couldn't help laughing out loud, stopped teasing it, and took out a piece of roasted bear meat from the space to give it to it.
The intelligence of the Demon King is now no less than that of a teenager.
Although he can't speak, Lin Shi usually communicates with the Demon King very easily, and the man and the dog get along like friends.
In addition, Lin Shi and the Demon King often fight together, and the man and the dog have a tacit understanding. The Demon King knows how to cooperate as soon as Lin Shi moves.
It has become Lin Shi's best partner.
These few days, Lin Shi and the Demon King hunted 5 first-level source beasts, 3 of which were killed by Lin Shi, and the other two were killed by the Demon King.
The source power of the first-level source beast is 10 to 20 points. He practiced the health-preserving formula for a day and got about 10 points. Absorbing it is better than nothing.
Lin Shi let the Demon King eat three of them.
I hope the Demon King will advance faster.
I don't know if the third-level source beast will have any ability.
While eating lunch, I suddenly heard some noises in the cold wind.
Lin Shi's eyes moved, and he immediately stood up and leaned to the window to check.
I saw an icebreaker breaking through the ice on the sea surface and heading towards the port in the wind and snow.
"Here it comes!"
Lin Shi was excited.
The Demon King also stopped eating.
At this time, the crackling sound of ice breaking was constantly heard on the sea surface.
A huge icebreaker broke the ice with the wind and came towards the port with an unstoppable momentum.
The huge hull looked cold and solemn, and it made a buzzing roar in the wind and snow.
Soon, the icebreaker entered the port.
Lin Shi's spirit was shocked.
He called on the Demon King to hide.
At this time, on the deck of the icebreaker.
A group of people stood on the side of the icebreaker, men and women, old and young, at least hundreds of people.
Among these hundreds of people, there are important scientists in various fields in Kyoto.
There are important clansmen from Kyoto's hidden families.
There are also senior officers of the Kyoto Army and some high-ranking officials.
There are relatively few women and children among them.
Most of the hundreds of people are young and middle-aged.
Standing in the front are several old men with half a century hair, surrounded by hundreds of people.
Although they are old, their temperaments are different from ordinary people, and they seem to have been in high positions for many years.
Even Lin Tianrui is one step behind a few people.
There are also two old men, who stand half a step ahead of the old men, and seem to be the people with the highest status among them.
Lin Tianrui pointed to the port in front of him and said:
"Chief, Commander-in-Chief, uncles, we are here."
It turned out that the person standing in the front of the crowd was the highest authority in Xia Country!
He had a kind face and a righteous aura. His aura was not as strong as the people around him, but it was like a breeze that could make people feel like spring breeze and also set off huge waves!
It was Xia Country's highest leader, Xia Guohong!
And it was not difficult to guess the identity of the majestic old man who could sit on an equal footing with Xia Guohong.
He had an upright face. Even though he was over fifty years old, he was still tall and stood straight. The whole person stood there like an insurmountable towering mountain.
The highest commander-in-chief of the Xia Country Military Region, Lin Honglong!
"Good, good, good."
Xia Guohong said three good words.
"Notify them, pack up your things and prepare to get off the ship. You have worked hard for the past few months."
The people behind him hurriedly notified them.
Hundreds of people dispersed to pack their luggage.
Only a few old men, Lin Tianrui, and a dozen bodyguards were left.
Lin Tianrui said:
"Chief, everything in Shashi will be up to you from now on."
"No, just do what you did before."
Xia Guohong waved his hand.
"The troops in other places are now independent. You were in charge of Shashi before, and you still have the final say now."
The old men had different expressions when they heard this.
