Global Check-in System

As such, Lin Fei's moment of hopelessness quickly infected the other three women on the speedboat as well. In an instant, their joyful expressions were replaced with that of disappointment and despair.    

Seeing how the three beauties were all staring at him with looks of despair, Lin Fei came to a sudden realization.    

As the only man on the speedboat deemed as their leader, he stood as the backbone of their group. Thus, he could not reveal any of such negative emotions.    

No matter how desperate or hopeless he felt, he could only choose to endure it silently and digest it alone in his heart.    

Otherwise, isolated in the middle of the ocean, they would quickly lose the courage and confidence to survive.    

Realizing this major problem, Lin Fei quickly composed himself and held back his emotions.    

"Alright, beauties, I admit that I may have been a bit too impatient just now!"    

"All of you, wake up! We still have our speedboat, freshwater, food, special tools, and emergency supplies. Our current situation isn't as bad as we thought!"    

"Regardless whether or not we can send out a signal of distress, we nevertheless have to prioritize our own survival. After all, we can't just give up on ourselves, right?"    

"At the very least, we're still drifting afloat on this speedboat. Neither are we soaked in seawater nor do we have to constantly worry about being eaten by sharks, right?"    

Lin Fei encouraged as he looked at the three beauties.    

"Hehe, Brother Lin Fei is right! With our current supplies, we'll be safe for now."    

Upon hearing his motivating words, Xi Mengwei laughed and agreed.    

"Yeah, Xiao Fei, as long as you remained confident, everyone else will feel the same way!"    

At that time, Lee Fei'er clenched her fists tightly as a flame of hope rekindled amidst her beautiful eyes.    

"That's right. We'll live for as long as our supplies last. Who knows? Perhaps we might even run into a merchant ship and get rescued!"    

Liu Qing's eyes surged with hope as she clenched her fists and exclaimed.    

As a usually calm person, she spoke rationally and cheered alongside everyone.    

Seeing the sudden change in everyone's emotions, Lin Fei realized just how significant of a role he played in this group.    

With that in mind, he made a prompt decision and said, "Xiao Qing, Mengwei, Fei'er, bring all our freshwater and food over. We'll have to keep track of the supplies, formulate a detailed plan, and ration accordingly!"    

"TWe'll need to prepare for the worst by conserving freshwater and food. Get ready for a long battle!"    

"Yeah!"    

The three beauties replied in unison.    

Perhaps it was because they had just experienced a life-threatening danger last night, but the three beauties appeared like flowers in full bloom. Each and every single action they made was swift yet efficient, just like that of experienced soldiers.    

Seeing their growth, Lin Fei felt both guilty and gratified.    

He felt guilty because he was not capable of taking good care of these beauties by himself. Instead, he had no choice but to have them do work too.    

On the other hand, he was extremely proud of their growth.    

In the following days, who knows what would happen to them out at sea? However, seeing how much the ladies have grown in such a short period of time, he felt much more reassured of their plan to survive.    

Very soon!    

The three ladies gathered up all the supplies they brought with them last night in front of Lin Fei.    

There were 150 liters of freshwater, 20 days' worth of food, five life jackets, one first aid kit, two orange smoke bombs, one waterproof flashlight, six flare signals, two axes, four fishing kit boxes, one windproof lighter, one rain catcher, one sailor's knife, two nylon ropes, an orange lifeboat, three AK-47s, and three clips of ammo with a total of 85 shots.    

After counting all the items, Lin Fei felt much more confident.    

When one gets stranded in the middle of the ocean, the one thing they'd usually lack were freshwater and food. But right now, they had 150 liters of fresh water and 20 days' worth of food on their speedboat.    

If they ate sparingly, collected rainwater, and caught some fish, it would not be a problem for them to survive their current predicament for two whole months.    

Moreover, according to Grandpa Bei's wilderness survival guide that he had previously obtained, they could very well live on for at least three to four months if nothing unexpected happened.    

With how long they could survive for while drifting across the ocean, Lin Fei felt that they should be able to reach the shore and get rescued in time.    

With that in mind, Lin Fei felt even more confident of their survival.    

"Hahahaha!"    

"Ladies, with these supplies, we'll be able to survive for at least three to four months. So, believe me when say that we'll definitely get out of this predicament alive!"    

Lin Fei burst into laughter as he said to the three beauties confidently. In that instant, the despair lingering within his eyes had completely subsided.    

"Brother Lin Fei, we all believe in you!"    

Xi Mengwei said as he clenched her fists tightly and looked at Lin Fei.    

"Yeah!"    

"Alright, ladies, put your hands together. Let's do our best to survive out at sea!"    

Lin Fei exclaimed and signaled the girls to stretch their hands out before them.    

Although it seemed rather silly, doing so could also boost their confidence and motivation.    

While Lin Fei ordered the ladies to collect all the supplies, he suddenly felt drowsy. Thus, he prepared to lie down and get some rest.    

However, at that moment, the speedboat suddenly tilted to side. Lin Fei jolted awake and hurriedly checked the condition of the boat in a panic.    

Apparently, another bullet had pierced through the back of the speedboat last night, allowing quite a large amount of seawater to flow into the interior of the speedboat through the bullet holes.    

With the weight of the back of the speedboat gradually increasing, it naturally started to sink, causing an imbalance to the center of gravity of the speedboat.    

Not sparing any time, Lin Fei quickly pulled out the only lifeboat.    

*Puff!*    

As Lin Fei pulled the air valve of the lifeboat open, it bounced off the surface of the ocean.    

An orange lifeboat about four meters long and three meters wide instantly unfolded on the surface of the ocean.    

"Quick!"    

"Hurry up and transfer all the supplies on the speedboat over to the lifeboat!"    

Jumping onto the lifeboat, Lin Fei waved his hand and shouted at the three beauties.    

The speedboat was sinking rather quickly, and the supplies on it were the key to their survival.    

"Okay!"    

Although the speedboat had already begun sinking, the three women still on it nevertheless remained calm.    

In that moment of desperation, they quickly transferred all the supplies on the speedboat over to the lifeboat at an efficient pace.    

After they finished transferring the supplies, Lin Fei helped the three of them over to lifeboat one by one.    

Having done all this, Lin Fei laid down on the lifeboat, panting heavily. At this moment, he felt extremely exhausted as if his entire body had been paralyzed.    

Looking at their speedboat gradually sinking into the ocean, Lin Fei did not fall into a sense of anguish, for he had initially planned on giving up on the speedboat anyways.    

In fact, the speedboat that had run out of fuel would not be as convenient and fast as a lifeboat.    

While they could paddle away on the lifeboat, it was impossible for them to do so on the speedboat as it was nowhere near as light. Even if they could paddle, it would undoubtedly waste a lot of their strength and energy.    

Thus, it did not matter whether or not the speedboat ended up sinking. However, the speedboat sinking had forced Lin Fei to use the lifeboat earlier than he initially planned.    

After stabilizing his breathing, Lin Fei distributed the necessary amount of food and freshwater to the beauties.    

After going through a rather intense escape on the previous night, they were naturally starving by now. Moreover, having transferred all of their supplies in a hurry, they had exhausted most of their strength. As such, they needed to provide the necessary amount of nutrition for their bodies.    

At this moment, none of them could afford to get sick from hunger. If someone ever fell ill during their time out at sea, things would because very troublesome.    

After devouring their allocated rations, Lin Fei was struck by a wave of exhaustion.    

He could tell that his condition was rather serious as even his mind was currently in a trance.    

He understood that he needed to get some rest as soon as possible. As the only man on the lifeboat, he could not afford to fall into such a weak state.    

Liu Qing, as the most intelligent woman among the three beauties, instantly noticed his fatigue and understood his current situation.    

"Lin Fei, you can sleep in peace!"    

"Don't worry, I will be on a look out with Mengwei and Fei'er!"    

Before Lin Fei even had the chance to say anything, Liu Qing spoke up immediately. As the backbone supporting their group, Lin Fei needed to maintain his vigor.    

"Alright!"    

Without saying anything else, Lin Fei nodded his head and went to sleep peacefully.    

Since each of the three ladies possesed both beauty and wisdom in their own respects, he knew that they were capable of handling any ordinary situation.    

On the other hand, he needed to focus on recovering his vigor as soon as possible. After all, the ocean at night was much more dangerous than the ocean during the daytime. Thus, he needed to get back into his best shape before dusk.    

After Lin Fei fell asleep, Liu Qing immediately instructed Xi Mengwei and Lee Fei'er, "Mengwei, Fei'er, each of you take an oar and slowly row in the same direction!"    

Upon giving out the orders, Liu Qing held onto an AK-47 and sat on high aleart on the rear end of the lifeboat.    

And just like that, Lin Fei would usually sleep during the day and stand guard vigilantly at night. During this time, the group of four cooperated extremely well.    

In addition, the distribution of food and fresh water was very reasonable. The weather was also unexpectedly ideal as it did not rain even once. Unknowingly, more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.    

Ten days later, Lin Fei had nothing much to worry about. He just felt a great sense of loneliness and boredom, being stranded in the middle of the ocean.    

At present, the four of them were still in good condition.    

Everyone on the lifeboat was very united, which was far beyond Lin Fei's expectations.    

Moreover, Lin Fei managed to catch quite a lot of fish over the past ten days. This increased their food supply greatly.    

Looking at their current situation, Lin Fei seemed much more confident in leading the three beauties and getting back ashore.    

But on this particular day, their smooth sailing was drastically affected by a sudden occurrence.    

It was already the 25th day of Lin Fei drifting freely on their lifeboat with the three beauties.    

In the evening, Lin Fei was suddenly woken up by Liu Qing.    

At that time, the weather in the sky was gradually turning dark and gloomy as if it had been covered up by an upturned pot. The atmosphere also made it rather difficult for them to breathe.    

"Sir, it might start raining soon. We don't have any rain gear on the lifeboat that can cover us from the rain, so what should we do?"    

Liu Qing looked at Lin Fei and asked anxiously when she saw that he had woken up.    

"Trouble is nigh!"    

Facing the imminent extreme weather, Lin Fei looked up at the sky and said to himself.    

In fact, he had no idea what to do now!    

Drifting on a lifeboat in the ocean, what he feared was naturally extreme weather.    

If it was just heavy rain, Lin Fei would not be worried. But if the extreme weather also included raging waves and thunderstorms, they would undoubtedly meet their ends right then and there.    

*Rumble!*    

At that moment, a bolt of lighting jolted through the evening sky, followed by the muffled rumbling of thunder coming out from the thick clouds in the sky.    

*Hwoosh!*    

In the next instant, bean-sized raindrops began pouring down from the sky, which prevented Lin Fei from opening his eyes properly.    

Without any time to think, he quickly took off the only piece of clothes he had on him and hurriedly covered up their food supplies.    

At that moment, a strong gale of wind suddenly blew past the surface of the ocean, stirring up huge waves that rushed towards their lifeboat. Everyone on the lifeboat was shaken while the supplies began spilling and rolling everywhere.    

The three ladies screamed subconsciously at the same time.    

"Quickly, get down! Hold onto the handles at the bottom of the lifeboat!"    

Holding onto the remaining food supply in one hand, Lin Fei grasped onto the handle at the bottom of the lifeboat tightly with his other and exclaimed.    

Hearing Lin Fei's words, the three ladies quickly crouched down and held tightly onto the handle without any hesitation.    

At that instant, a barrel that contained more than 20 liters of freshwater suddenly flew out of the lifeboat.    

At that time, the waves raging on the surface of the ocean pushed the lifeboat around one after another. Bouncing up into the air, the lifeboat quickly crashed back down on the lowest point of the waves.    

Crawling on the lifeboat, Lin Fei felt as if he was walking between the undulating mountains. It was simply impossible for him to spare any energy to snatch back the barrel of precious freshwater.    

As the lifeboat kept landing heavily on the surface of the raging ocean, Lin Fei felt like his heart was sent flying by huge force of the impact.    

While the barrels of freshwater and other important supplies continuously flew out into the sea from the impact, there was nothing Lin Fei could do to get them back at this moment.    

But compare to those supplies, Lin Fei needed to prioritize his own survival right now.    

However!    

At that instant, cracks of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky above!    

As Lin Fei raised his head and looked up into the sky, a great sense of panic he had never experienced before suddenly emerged within his eyes.
