Chapter 63 The Holy Mother of Saviors? (Last update for today)
Zhang Xinlan wasn't stupid either. She immediately realized that Yu Wang wasn't going to the central area of the inner sea, but instead was driving along the edge of the island full of reefs and ravines because the terrain there was complex, and beans carried by ocean currents were most likely to get stuck somewhere.
Everyone understands the principle, but when faced with the temptation of "the beans are right in front of you" and the anxiety of "everyone else is grabbing them," it's hard for most people to break free from their preconceived notions if no one points it out to them.
Just like how top students always solve problems in such a concise way.
That's truly impressive; your thought process goes through two more loops than others.
Zhang Xinlan still had some concerns: "But isn't it too dangerous for us to go into the water now? When I was scooping up beans just now, I think I glimpsed a shark's dorsal fin darting by!"
Yu Wang naturally knew that doing so was somewhat risky. As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold, and there's no such thing as becoming stronger while lying down. Even becoming stronger by cursing others still requires some effort.
"I'll go down now. You can come over after I find the cave entrance. Otherwise, it'll just be a waste of the item's durability."
However, I'll grant you access to the "water rocket cannon," so when you see a shark, just aim and blast it.
"Besides, once all the beans on the surface are caught, we'll have to go into the water sooner or later to get a good ranking. Rather than waiting until everyone is forced into the water and the situation becomes more chaotic, we might as well seize the opportunity now."
Yu Wang had already begun preparing for diving and took out his bubble helmet.
Although the "fish skin swimsuit" had several holes, it could still provide a slight boost to swimming speed, so Yu Wang still put it on.
But the "Giant Claw Lobster Armor" can no longer be worn.
Zhang Xinlan could only nod vigorously, suppressing her worries and transforming them into a sense of responsibility: "Then just message me as soon as you move a certain distance. Don't worry! With me here, no shark will ever approach this area!"
"no problem."
For a moment, Yu Wang almost blurted out, "Take it easy with the cannon, save some money."
The words were on the tip of his tongue, but he barely managed to change them by twisting his tongue.
He thought to himself that this couldn't go on, and he needed to find time to undergo desensitization treatment.
With their thoughts on their minds, Yu Wang and Ya B quietly slipped into the sea from the side of the ship.
The seawater here is a bit cooler than at the seaweed farm, but his enhanced physique makes it perfectly bearable.
When he reached a relatively flat sandy area near the seabed, Yu Wang stopped and opened a bottle of expired Coke.
The dark brown liquid did not dissipate immediately, but instead formed a small, ever-expanding, churning "cloud" in the seawater, and slowly drifted in a specific direction with a hidden current.
"As expected, there are undercurrents." Yu Wang realized this in his heart.
He casually picked up the empty Coke bottle and began to swim in the direction the Coke indicated.
Duck B followed closely behind, its webbed feet swaying back and forth.
In order to receive artillery support from the "Little Yellow Duck" at any time, Yu Wang would stop temporarily every forty or fifty meters to send a message to Zhang Xinlan through the fleet's internal chat window.
This ensures that the "Little Yellow Duck" is always nearby, providing fire support.
Yu Wang realized the benefits of having a human teammate at this moment.
Upon exiting the instance, you'll find freshly prepared hot meals, readily available fire support, and someone to chat with to relieve boredom.
The ducks cannot do any of these three things.
Before long, the power of the undercurrent intensified.
Even without wasting drinks, Yu Wang could sense a persistent undercurrent pulling at his body.
He followed the amplified undercurrent, skirting several massive reefs that resembled underwater tombstones, and discovered that the pull came from two of the largest reefs, intersecting to form a dark angle.
Yu Wang moved closer to the angle.
The angle is located about twelve or thirteen meters below the water surface, and is obscured by protruding rocks, making it extremely difficult to spot from a normal angle above the water.
The water flowed there and seemed to be sucked into a narrow channel, causing the nearby water to swirl slightly.
"That's it!" Yu Wang thought to himself and swam toward that dark corner.
Upon closer inspection, it becomes clearer that at the base of the two interlocking rocks, which resemble giant teeth, there is indeed a flat, round crack about one meter wide and less than half a meter high.
The seawater is continuously flowing inward.
The inside of the fissure was pitch black and bottomless, with no idea where it led.
The game states that the beans the survivors are currently collecting are the essence of the ocean, but the ocean is boundless, so why do the beans specifically gather here?
This underwater basin must have something special about it, and the fact that these sensory predators chose it as a nursery probably wasn't just for safety; these beans may also be beneficial to the growth of their young.
But now, with the game's forceful intervention, these beans, which have been condensed from the essence of the ocean for countless years, are now all going to benefit the human survivors.
Yu Wang observed the surrounding terrain features and found that the location of the underwater cave entrance described in "Let the World Be Filled with Love" was completely different.
"Did I go to the wrong place, or is it to fill the world with love?" Knowing that no one would verify, he casually made up some details to fool them.
But one thing is certain: the source of the undercurrent must contain a large number of beans!
Yu Wang did not rush in. He first signaled Duck B to wait in the vicinity, while he returned to the Little Yellow Duck.
Unbeknownst to him, the "Little Yellow Duck" encountered several uninvited guests.
At this moment, Zhang Xinlan, who was focused on keeping an eye on the sea, did not immediately notice the unusual movement coming from her side and rear.
She only turned her head sharply when she heard the sound of a strong wind blowing the canvas.
Three uninvited ships appeared in the field of vision.
The lead vessel, far exceeding the size of ordinary rafts and small boats, was a twenty-meter-long, antique-style double-gun sailing ship!
There is a tall wooden statue at the bow of the ship.
The sculpture depicts a saint with a kind face, her hands folded in front of her chest, in a prayerful posture.
The statue is exquisitely carved, but for some reason, under the sunlight, the saintly statue's "kind and benevolent" expression and slightly stiff posture do not bring a sense of holiness and peace, but rather exude an indescribable sense of falseness and discomfort.
It's like wearing a mask.
Zhang Xinlan felt a physical aversion upon seeing the statue just once.
Therefore, she only glanced at it before focusing her attention on the sailboat.
Unlike Yu Wang, she doesn't usually enjoy intensely spying on the chat interface of the 444 partition, but coincidentally, the owner of this ship also likes to seek attention.
Every now and then, he would post messages in the group that seemed like he was being a good person, but were actually just him showing off his ship.
Therefore, Zhang Xinlan recognized the ship immediately and even found the panel information that the ship's owner had recently posted to show off.
Name: Our Lady of Salvation
Level: 1;
Durability: 977+25/1200+25;
Speed: 5 knots;
Storage space: 200 cells;
Skill: Compassionate Heart [Description: A peculiar ship imbued with pure goodwill and a belief in salvation. Its sturdiness is not for conquest, but for protection. Its pilot may be naive—]
This is a ship that "fills the world with love".
Alarm bells rang in Zhang Xinlan's mind.
She had long disliked the other party's hypocritical and evasive style, but unfortunately, a large group of people seemed to buy into her act, which was puzzling.
She's practically a succubus!
At this moment, the other party is approaching with a clear sense of intimidation, and their intentions are definitely not good!
She quickly sent a message to Yu Wang, briefly describing the current situation.
Meanwhile, they quietly adjusted the bow of the "Little Yellow Duck" to ensure it could fire a shot at the large sailing ship at any moment.
