"That's not okay," Evans refused with a smile. "That was a 34th birthday present from my friends on the Alden."
"I've heard of that ship," Weiyan said as he took off his clothes. "If I remember correctly, it's a Clemson-class destroyer."
"There's nothing wrong with what you said."
Evans said while wrapping the umbrella cloth around his feet, "It was a very old boat. I was working the same job as Sterling on that boat."
"Did Sterling come from that ship too?" Wei Ran, who was also wrapping his feet with umbrella cloth, asked.
"He's not"
Evans shook his head, first
He blew up a condom to the size of a basketball, then wrapped another piece of umbrella cloth around a volleyball-sized stone, tied it with a rope around his waist and said, "Okay, I'm going down first, Hawks' diving mask."
I’ll leave it to you. If you can beat me, take my telescope as a bet!”
Before he finished speaking, Evans had already picked up the spear gun, holding the condom that served as a breathing bag in his mouth, and jumped off the reef holding the stone.
"I haven't said my bet yet."
After hurriedly tying the stone, Wei Ran grumbled and fastened the gas mask, then checked the double-layered condom that was tightly tied to the other end of the corrugated pipe, then blew it up from the other end of the mask, and then took a deep breath.
, holding the stone in one hand and the spear gun in the other, he left the reef.
Although the conditions are simple, the tools provided by Hawks are extremely useful. Relatively speaking, the only troubles are that they need to come up frequently to ventilate the condom that acts as an air bag, and how to find it from the colorful corals on the seabed.
Just a hidden lobster.
At the same time, in the camp at the southern end of the island, after two days of busy work, Sterling finally made a very simple sextant using the materials he could find.
"Sterling, what's the use of this thing?"
Hawks, who was supposed to set off to join Wei Ran and the other two, looked at the umbrella cloth filled with pencil lines in Sterling's hand and asked in puzzlement. The other party had just asked him to help him get this thing out.
If it weren't for this piece of cloth full of lines, he would have set off long ago.
Sterling explained with a smile while fiddling with the wooden products in his hands, "Use it to roughly measure our latitude."
"Don't we know we are on the Isle of Arran?" Hawks asked in confusion.
"Helen's Island," Hawkes corrected while holding a branch and writing and calculating on the sand.
"Whether it's Ellen or Helen," Hawks asked again, "So what's the use of this thing?"
"We can't always wait on this island for others to come to rescue us. The probability is too low."
Sterling smiled and said, "The chief and I have discussed that after we deal with Mr. Akira's threat, we will use everything we have to leave here. This simple sextant will come in handy then."
"Although it can't be too accurate, it can at least let us know whether it is moving in the direction we want to go."
"I didn't learn this kind of thing in the recruit company," Hawks muttered with some envy. "Those bastards only humiliate us in different ways."
"If you are interested, I can come and teach you."
Sterling said, having already handed the small object in his hand to Hawks, pointing to the sea in the distance and preparing to explain the working principle of this thing.
"Although I really want to learn, I'm afraid I have to wait a while." Hawks pointed to the atoll in the distance, "I'm going to pick up the chief and the others."
"I almost forgot about them"
