643 Chapter 672: Return!
“Big Hairy, I, Goudan, officially appoint you today to temporarily assume the position of the boatswain of the Goudan. You will be responsible for...”. Goudan looked at the duty sheet and coughed lightly. “Under the leadership of First Mate Wang Ye, you will be specifically responsible for the work of the Carpenters and sailors. You will be responsible for the maintenance and repair of the anchors, cables, and loading and unloading equipment. You will lead the sailors to do the work of painting, sailing, high altitude, outboard, lifting, steering, and other craft work. The salary will be 4,000 points per day for one month. If you go out to sea, you will receive a subsidy of 200 points per day.”
The points here naturally referred to the points shared by the players’Alliance. It was a point system that everyone imitated how Gondolin had built up together in the end.
“Yes, Sir Captain!”The simple and honest man nodded and bowed in response. However, he immediately put on a bitter face and said, “Sir Captain, can we not use this name? Just Call Me John.”
“John...”. “...”Goudan immediately frowned. “Your names are all the same here. If it’s not John, it’s just jack. There are already several John’s on the ship, how can I share them? If you’re not satisfied with being called Big Mao, then I’ll Call You Big Dog from now on!”
“Then... It’s better to be called Big Mao...”the big man cried.
Goudan nodded in satisfaction. “Next is er Mao. You’ll be the No. 1 sailor. You’ll be responsible for steering, the sailor’s duty schedule when sailing, and overtime maintenance work. San Mao will be the No. 2 sailor. You’ll be responsible for bringing the cables, retracting the gangway, and all kinds of craft work on the deck...”. “...”
The few sailors behind quickly responded. They did not have any objections to their names like the boatswain. They were afraid that they would become like the boatswain, such as Er Mao and San Mao...
They all said in unison, “Yes, Captain!”
“Mm...”Gou dan nodded in satisfaction, then, he looked at Candy, who was at the side, and said, “The chefs who came from me, Wang Gou Dan, were all meticulously trained by my father, Gou Dan. They are proficient in all kinds of culinary skills. They are also proficient in making pastries and alcoholic beverages. The doctors and pharmacists are high-level shamans and witch doctors who are invited by the cabbages. They are all personally trained in surgical skills by cabbages. The Witch Doctor is also proficient in making all kinds of high-level potions. It cost this gou Dan a lot of money...”. “...”
Candy Bean nodded. “I’ve helped prepare the other waiters and handymen. Now, all we need is Lei Xue, the chief engineer. Did the instructor say when she will be back?”
“I heard that she will have a three-day holiday...”Li Goudan puffed his cheeks and said, “I really want to leave as soon as possible!”
Meanwhile, Wang Ye, who was floating behind the two of them, had a complicated expression on his face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFrom their tone, it seemed that they did not care about what Lei Xue would reveal when she returned... ...
“Wang Ye, are you looking forward to it?”Eggface turned around and looked at him with a smile.
That cute look made Wang Ye’s breathing stop for a moment. He subconsciously nodded and said, “I’m looking forward to it...”
“I knew it!”Eggface Li happily grabbed Wang Ye and began to knead him.
Although Wang Ye was already used to being kneaded, his body did not protest as fiercely as before. However, this time, he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
If... ... If it were not for the external political factors, perhaps he would have been like Goudan, wholeheartedly looking forward to this voyage, right?
After all, as a free navigator exploring the new world, this was the kind of life that a special forces soldier like him wanted the most after he retired...

“Came back?”The first to come back Lei Xue Leng Leng looked at himself, the May Sunshine on the body let her have a very unreal feeling, unreal let her feel the body some floating.
But then I realized that it was probably a physical sensation caused by the weakening of gravity.
But a few seconds later, she was sensitive to find that her body is quickly starting to adapt to the environment, including gravity and air quality, in just a few seconds, she felt a lot less uncomfortable... ...
“Hey, which unit are you from?”
Just as Lei Xue was in a daze, a loud shout came from afar. Lei Xue heard the shout and looked over, then, she saw an officer with the rank of senior colonel walking over with big strides. “Don’t you know that this is a restricted area now? Report your unit and name, Colonel!”
Lei Xue instantly reacted and immediately stood at attention with respect. She saluted and said, “Navy’s 4th Corps, 76th Fleet, Black Dragon’s chief engineer Lei Xue Reporting!”
“Lei Xue?”The senior colonel heard a slight frown, feeling that the name is familiar ah...
In a flash, come to think of it, Lei Xue? Lei family that Wench?
“You Are...”said the senior Colonel Dully.
“Sir, please inform the higher-ups at once, I have important information to see the Chief!”
———- —
“Still nothing?”
In the Yanjing Chinese Academy of Sciences, the leader frowned at academician Li dequn who came to report his work.
Opposite the leader, a bald old man wearing simple reading glasses sighed and shook his head. “The latest equipment has been used, but it hasn’t detected the energy fluctuation in the square at all. Since the teleportation space was closed, there hasn’t been a single trace...”
The leader also sighed, but he wasn’t too surprised.
Although he followed the path of politics, he was actually a university student majoring in science and technology, so he knew some common sense and science. Let alone Huazhong, even North America, which had the most advanced technology, was still in its infancy, even North America, which had the most advanced technology, was still in its infancy.
Although some scientists had already calculated that an energy formula could open a physical plane and open a space passage, according to the formula, the energy required might not be enough even if all the nuclear power plants in the world were added together, this was only the preliminary prediction of opening a space passage.
As for how the space would be used after it was opened, where it would lead to, whether there would be energy disturbances and other problems, they had no idea at all because it was impossible to provide the energy needed to open a space passage with current technology.
Therefore, after the soldier reported that the other party had used a space passage to leave in front of everyone, the leader became unusually envious.
According to the theory, there should be traces left behind after teleporting here. As long as they could find the traces, they would be able to find Luo Fu’s real coordinates.
Of course, this was only in theory. Not to mention that they had not found any traces, even if they did, they had no idea how to use the traces to locate the coordinates.
Moreover, even if they found the traces, how could they open the passage? This was an unsolvable problem.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe experts of the research institute had mentioned these difficulties to the leader, and the leader could understand them. However, he was a little unwilling to accept it. He thought that he should at least do something to find traces of them. What if he could use them in the future?
However, he did not expect that even this first step would be so difficult. The people of the research institute had tried their best, but they were still unable to find any traces... ...
“Sir Leader!”
Just as the leader was discouraged, an old man with the rank of general walked in quickly. He said excitedly, “There... there’s someone back there. They said that they have important information to report to you!”
The leader’s heart jumped when he heard that. He quickly asked, “Which one is back?”
“It’s Lei Xue from the 76th Fleet!”
The leader asked, “Is it the one who got first place in the previous examination? That Lass from the Lei Family?”
“Yes, my Lord!”
“Quick, call her over!”The leader immediately said with a face full of pleasant surprise.
“My Lord?”The guard who was responsible for the safety of the leader immediately frowned and said, “She’s the only one who came back. Shouldn’t we be a little more cautious?”
The leader was stunned when he heard that. He instantly understood what the other party meant. Lei Xue had been brought to an unknown place. It was unknown if there would be any changes after she returned. It was even uncertain if she was still Lei Xue.., there was a certain risk in meeting her in person at this time.
However, the leader only hesitated for less than two seconds before shaking his head. “There’s no need...”he then said to the general, “Just call her over!”
He thought very clearly that the central China authorities did not have the protection of transcendents. If they wanted to assassinate him, many sect elders would be able to do so. They did not do so because they did not dare.., after all, the current technological extraordinary force could not beat the army in a head-on fight.
However, Luo Fu did not have such concerns because the army could not find their base. However, it was because the other party had such an advantage that the leader was even more convinced that the other party would not act recklessly.
After all, with their current advantage, if they wanted to act recklessly, they could have done it a long time ago, right?
He was not worried about safety. He was just looking forward to the girl from the Lei family being able to provide him with some useful information...
