More and more people came to this level because of this sudden situation. Many of the passengers who were hiding in their own spaces came out one after another.
At a time like this, there weren't many people who could sit still.
Qin Yi had never seen such a scene. He had never traveled this sea route before, and he didn't have any information to refer to.
Therefore, he had no idea what to do.
Unlike the others, he didn't try to squeeze his way into the hall, nor did he participate in the discussions.
At a time like this, there was no point in shouting.
In the end, the decision still depended on who was controlling the ship.
The floating ice in front of them was getting thicker and thicker. The ship was practically moving, and it couldn't be considered moving at all.
At this time, news finally came. Change course!
It was already a little late to change course. However, the only consolation was that the ship could still move, and wasn't completely trapped.
Changing course sounded easy, but it wasn't that easy to do.
The main reason was that there were too many ice floes around, and it wasn't easy to change course. After a lot of effort, they finally changed the direction of the ship to avoid the direction of the floating ice floes.
However, there were too many ice floes around. Even if they knew where the floating ice floes were coming from, it wasn't that easy to charge through this vast area of ice floes in a short period of time.
These ice floes seemed to have formed an encirclement. Even if they knew where the ice floes were coming from, and knew how to avoid where they were coming from, they still had to charge out of this encirclement first.
If they couldn't charge out, they couldn't change course.
As time passed, even though the ship changed its direction, its speed didn't improve at all in the flooded area of the floating ice.
Moreover, as the temperature continued to drop, the ice floes formed more and more resistance in the water.
The ship was moving at a snail's pace. Worst of all, because there were too many ice floes, the huge ship couldn't move steadily, and it became extremely bumpy.
Everyone's eyes were filled with anxiety. It was obvious that even the person in charge of the ship was worried about this situation.
A group of higher-ups discussed for a while, and a person in charge walked out and said loudly to all the passengers, "Dear guests, according to our surveillance of the nearby sea, we have to guarantee that we can get out of this area by 30 to 50 kilometers before we can escape from the ice floes."
"As long as we get rid of the floating ice, our predicament will be resolved. However, it was extremely difficult to charge out of this thirty to fifty li area. As you can see, the speed of the ship has almost stopped. We have to take some measures to clear the way for the ship. "
Open a path?
Everyone looked at the person in charge suspiciously. Clearly, they did not understand what he meant by his words.
Did he expect everyone to lead the way? This was the route of the floating ice that trapped the ship. It wasn't some other trouble, so how were they supposed to open a path?
The person in charge said, "We have limited manpower on this ship, and our martial arts reserves are also very limited. Ever since they opened up this route, they had never encountered such a risk. So, we don't have any plans to deal with the ice floes. This is a big problem. "
"What are you trying to say? Why was he hesitating? If you have anything to say, just say it. "
"That's right. Look at the situation now. Why are you still playing dumb with us? "
Actually, the person in charge was waiting for everyone's reaction. Seeing that everyone was anxious, the person in charge nodded and said, "Alright, then I won't beat around the bush. Right now, we are in the same boat, and our fates are completely tied together. So, we need everyone's help. We need you to help yourselves! "
"How do we help? Don't tell me we have to move the floating ice floes away? "
"How is that possible?"
"Everyone, listen to me in detail! Although the area taken up by the ship is large, there is still a limit. As long as we ensure that there are fewer floating ice floes, we can increase our speed. So, we just need to clear the floating ice floes in front of the ship and open a path for it. Then, we will use the fastest speed to rush out of the encirclement. With our speed, as long as we clear the ice floes quickly and with enough momentum, we will be able to do it in half an hour. "
Qin Yi looked pensive. In fact, he already understood what the person in charge was saying.
Clear the floating ice floes in front of the ship so that the ship could maintain its speed and rush out of the encirclement.
He had to admit that this was the wisest choice right now, and also the only way out.
"Clear the floating ice floes? How? These floating ice floes aren't small, and they are soaked in sweat. How are we going to clear them? "
"There's no way to do it. There are floating ice floes everywhere. Even if you clear them, the surrounding ice floes will continue to press in. "
The person in charge pressed his hands down and said, "Don't be pessimistic, everyone. No matter how hard the floating ice floes are, they are still ice. There is no ice in the world that cannot be melted. You have so many cultivators, so you must have all kinds of methods. Everyone, gather your strength and use all kinds of fire attribute attacks to melt the floating ice floes. Open up space for the ship. Even if the surrounding ice floes press in, it won't be that fast. As long as you can use it, there won't be a problem. "
The person in charge's tone was full of enticement as he continued, "Of course, we definitely won't let the passengers make the first move. We will use our strength first. Wait until we are exhausted, then you can take over. There are a few hundred passengers here, so I believe there won't be a problem in terms of strength. However, what I'm most worried about is that everyone is unwilling to do their best. They all have their own selfish motives and want to wait for others to do their part. If that's the case, there will be a lot of trouble. Because the encirclement is still expanding, and the surrounding sea is showing obvious signs of freezing. If we don't hurry, once the ice forms, this ship might really become an iceberg. Although we cultivators can run for our lives, we definitely won't be able to escape this vast sea in the end. The only difference is who dies first, and who dies last. "
The person in charge spoke of his worries in detail.
Qin Yi listened and nodded inwardly. He didn't know if the ship's reserves were really that weak.
But if they wanted the passengers to do their part, selfishness was indeed a big problem.
Humans were selfish, and no one was willing to help others. They all wanted others to do their part. This kind of selfishness could easily ruin things.
The more time was delayed, the slimmer the chances of breaking out of the encirclement.
