Extreme germ phobia

Chapter 406 Find a new way
After staring blankly for a while, Ou Yang felt even more doubts growing in his heart.

Besides these two, are there any more cruise ships out of sight?
What's this called? A saturation attack tactic on an infected cruise ship?

He didn't care how many ships carrying infected people the apostles sent out; he just wanted to know how these ships got through his blockade. Surely there weren't so many cruise ships that they had exhausted his missiles?
In Ouyang's mind, Saint Vah Island was the apostle's primary target. Even Belling Island had two... at least two cruise ships. So what about Saint Vah Island?
Feeling a surge of irritation, Ouyang immediately searched the cockpit and quickly found the radio.

But none of the switches worked, all the equipment malfunctioned, and no matter what I did, there was no response whatsoever.

Logically speaking, the problem must be the power outage.

The cruise ship must have a backup power source. If the generator is successfully started, it might be able to get various devices, especially the radio, running.

But he knew too little about ships and had no idea where to begin.

Ouyang really wanted to disassemble the radio, find another power source to connect it to, and just make sure it could run for a while and send messages back.

Although he learned some electronics knowledge from Zhu Yiming, it was only superficial, and he couldn't handle anything slightly complicated.

The cruise ship must have a backup power source, so Ou Yang immediately left the cockpit and went deep into the ship to look for the engine room. However, there was no power supply, and the interior of the cruise ship was extremely dark. The upper deck was still somewhat bright, but the lower deck was completely dark, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Reluctantly returning to the cockpit, Ouyang suddenly heard a muffled explosion coming from the direction of the base.

His heart tightened, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried: Could there be a problem with the base?
Ou Yang abandoned his intention to continue searching and continued to keep his eyes on the direction of the base.

Not long after, another muffled explosion rang out, sending up a billowing mushroom cloud of smoke.

Ou Yang gritted his teeth. What exactly was the neighboring government trying to do? And what had happened to Xincheng and Beiling Island? Why was there still no movement?
In the direction of the dock, a small passenger boat was docking. Armed men disembarked with large bags and loaded their goods onto a vehicle before driving towards the base.

Ouyang became even more worried.

Looking into the distance, he was surprised to find several passenger ships on the sea, but they did not dock at Belling Island; instead, they continued sailing eastward.

Ouyang stared intently at the ships, refusing to look away.

He knew the distribution of the Cannon Islands by heart. To the east of the main island, there were only Belling Island and Saint-Va Island. Since they were not going to dock there, the fleet's target could only be Saint-Va Island!

Direct flights to the South American continent?

Don't be silly, they're all small boats, only used for transportation between islands. If you want to cross a distance of nearly two thousand kilometers, you'll need a large boat!
Ouyang gritted his teeth inwardly. If only he could get on the ship, he could go straight back to Saint Varian Island!
It's frustrating that those heading east don't dock, and those docking don't head east.

His gaze then fell on another cruise ship, and he racked his brains trying to figure out if he could find a radio on that ship.

As he pondered, Ou Yang's gaze swept across the dock, and he suddenly slapped his forehead.

No, you're thinking wrong!

The other cruise ship definitely has a radio, but it's hard to say whether it has electricity. However, the ship at the dock definitely has both a radio and electricity!
With that thought in mind, Ouyang immediately left the cockpit.

Just as he was getting off the ship, he stumbled upon a compartment where diving equipment was stored, and now he could use it!
Upon arriving at his destination, Ouyang quickly gathered a set of equipment that suited him; the gas cylinders were neither full nor empty.

He had never been a diver before, only learning for a short time after arriving on the Hua Tuo ship, and most of the time he used an artificial gill; he had only used scuba gear two or three times, so he could only be considered to have a basic understanding, not an expert. But that was enough!

Gather all your equipment, avoid the enemy's line of sight, and quietly swim towards the dock.

To avoid being discovered by the enemy, he deliberately swam further away, taking a full half hour to reach the vicinity of the dock.

There were quite a few guards on the dock, but they were scattered here and there, all listless and yawning constantly, and some even openly dozing off.

Those who were barely holding on were all listless, and at most they would look around every now and then. No one paid any attention to the surface of the sea, let alone underwater!
The guards on the dock were the same group of people who were knocked out by the hallucinogen last night. It would be strange if they still had energy after being tormented by the hallucination until midnight.

After observing for a while, Ou Yang determined that the stern was a blind spot for most people. So he swam to the stern, took off his diving gear in the water, and waited silently with a waterproof bag containing his clothes and weapons. When he saw an opportunity, he suddenly went ashore and hid behind a damaged container.

After quickly putting on his clothes and taking a deep breath, Ouyang stood up with his gun in his arms and moved to the position closest to the gangway.

boom--

A muffled explosion rolled across the sky. Some people didn't react at all, while others looked curiously toward the base.

opportunity!

Ouyang wanted to dash out in one stride, but after leaving the cover, he deliberately slowed down and swayed as he walked toward the ship.

A guard in the distance looked over, his gaze landing on Ou Yang, and he immediately became suspicious: Who is this person? I've never seen him before?
Then he saw Ouyang casually step onto the gangway and board the ship.

The guard suddenly realized that they were people from the ship, which made sense.

Ouyang was unaware that he had narrowly escaped danger. He had come worried about being questioned after boarding the ship, but the ship was empty and there wasn't a soul in sight, so he was extremely relaxed.

He didn't dare linger on the deck. He rushed into the cabin, praying that he wouldn't run into any unrelated crew members, and tiptoed toward the bridge.

Just as I feared, the hatch in front of me suddenly creaked open after only a few steps.

In that instant, Ouyang's hair stood on end, and he quickly dodged to the side.

As the footsteps faded into the distance, Ou Yang quietly breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked up, he was astonished to find that the cover he had been using was actually several boxes of explosives!
The packaging box even has Lao Mi's logo on it!
Ou Yang... you're not even going to act anymore, are you?

He immediately looked around, but could only find explosives, not a detonator. Otherwise, he would have inserted a detonator and set off a huge firework for the enemy!
Ouyang really wanted to take some with him, but he knew that modern explosives weren't so easy to detonate, and that opening the packaging would likely lead to discovery. He could only suppress his impulse and continue walking towards the cockpit.

I smelled a delicious aroma on the way, and my stomach immediately started rumbling.

Although it wasn't noon yet, swimming had taken a lot of energy, and I was indeed a bit hungry.

Licking his lips, Ouyang suppressed his urge to hunt with unwavering willpower, and hurried along, hiding twice along the way, before finally reaching the cockpit.

Ou Yang couldn't wait any longer and took a few quick steps, barging into the cockpit. However, he almost bumped into a burly man with a big beard who was about to leave!
