Chapter 73 Hurricane Storm Arrives

The staff at Sapphire Island were clearly used to dealing with such situations; they appeared at the port immediately after the Gemstone Hurricane Storm struck to direct the situation on site.

The island's civilians were equally accustomed to this and obediently followed the staff's instructions.

The survivors, however, were like headless flies, filled with anxiety, after Zhao Fuli, one of their leaders, suddenly disappeared.

This is, after all, someone else's territory.

It would be perfectly reasonable for the people of Sapphire Island to ignore them.

Fortunately, through the negotiations of Shu Yin and his group, the survivors were temporarily taken refuge in the Bounty Guild by the staff.

A group of hunters were also gathered in the Bounty Hunter Guild, drinking heavily.

The survivors were initially somewhat dissatisfied with being placed in the Bounty Guild, a location so close to the storm.

However, after seeing the bounty hunters, they immediately felt much more at ease.

All the children were taken to a safer place for refuge; Sapphire Island is one of the few factions in the deep blue sea that treats children relatively well.

Chen Qing, who was outside, also spent 20 goldfish to buy a temporary prop under the arrangement of the staff.

【Floating Bubble Ball (Blue)】

As the name suggests, it is a tool that allows things to float in the air.

This is used on ships. When the Gemstorm hits, once it breaks through Sapphire Island's defenses, the ships in the port will be the first to suffer.

Chen Qing doesn't lack this amount of money, so there's no need to save it.

As Chen Qing floated above the central area of ​​Sapphire Island along with the ship, he experienced firsthand the terrifying power of the Gemstone Hurricane.

The sky was pitch black, and the color of the jewel-like hurricane storm was similar to that of the sky, an extremely rich black, as if the storm contained terrifying and violent energy.

Wherever the Gemstone Hurricane passed, the seawater was whipped up into terrifying, towering waves, even taller than the entire protective shield of Sapphire Island.

Hidden within the giant waves was a destructive vortex capable of devouring everything. Chen Qing watched as a sea monster the size of an island was torn apart and devoured by the vortex.

Even the most powerful sea monsters are weak and vulnerable in the face of the Gemstone Hurricane Storm.

Apart from the demonic dragon that charged headlong into the incredibly powerful storm, their momentum was in no way inferior to that of the Gemstone Hurricane Storm, and their ship hull easily sliced ​​the storm in two like a sharp blade.

Only then did Chen Qing gain a clearer understanding of this strongest pirate group in the Deep Blue.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Fuli, who was on the pirate ship, felt his frustration and fear lessen slightly.

She's managed to latch onto a powerful figure, though she still prefers to be the island's owner.

The survivors hiding in the Bounty Guild had a completely different experience from Zhao Fuli.

"They're so strong, why don't they stay and protect us?"

A survivor muttered something under his breath, and the once lively Bounty Guild suddenly fell silent as everyone turned to look at the survivor.

Ariel's eyes held a hint of pity. Poor fellow.

Someone will definitely complain to the pirates of the Demon Dragon Pirate Crew.

Moreover, there are many who want to become followers of the Dragon Pirate Crew.

The survivor's face immediately turned red, and he belatedly felt fear.

However, he should live a little longer, since no one has time to care about him now.

They need to determine the extent of the hurricane's power and whether Sapphire Island is part of its path.

If so, the tragedy of two years ago may be repeated.

During the hurricane, no place in Gem Sea was spared; almost everything was affected.

However, as long as it's not on the route, there shouldn't be any problems; it's relatively safe, as the protective shield on the island can handle it.

However, this also means that the quality and quantity of gemstones in the waters surrounding Sapphire Island will not be very good.

High risk is often accompanied by high reward.

The gem hunters on the island certainly hoped that Sapphire Island would be in the path of the hurricane, as they were much richer than the common people.

Chen Qing, observing the hurricane from the sky, initially determined that it was likely just the prelude.

Since that was the case, Chen Qing went back to doing her own thing.

She asked Granny Swan to act as an intermediary and purchased a batch of materials for making the environmental adaptation device, which will take some time to arrive.

After giving the super-powered vines some instructions, Chen Qing returned to his studio to continue researching the environmental adaptation device.

She needs a better device.

Chen Qing gave all three sets of devices she had made to Ming Rang, the person who had sold her the three blueprints.

This was agreed upon.

The workshop was filled with mechanical parts and scrap metal ores, and Chen Qing began a new round of research.

The biggest problems with environmental adaptation devices at present are illumination and attack power.

After diving to the deep sea, all the light emitted by the adaptation device was swallowed up by the environment, and the visibility was too low.

She is not a true sea creature, and is easily attacked in this environment.

The Gem Hunters in the Gem Hurricane event have many Murlocs, and humans have far less of an advantage compared to them.

Diamond Island, the furthest from Sapphire Island, is the territory of mermaids, and the entire island lives off gemstones.

The mermaids of Diamond Island are among the most elite gem hunters.

Everyone has their own expertise, and even the strongest pirate might not be able to surpass them.

They will definitely be among Chen Qing's competitors.

Those Fengying jadeite pieces were highly sought after.

Chen Qing sat in a chair with blueprints of the Super Shield Whale, the Explosive Battle Rabbit, and the Environmental Adaptation Device laid out in front of him.

While the Super Shield Whale is capable of diving, it would still be challenging to dive to that depth with her.

The deep-sea environment consumes the energy of its protective shield.

There's also the Explosive Rabbit Hunter, which Chen Qing needs to go into the water with.

The gem hunters on Diamond Island mostly operate in teams, so Chen Qing will have a hard time against them.

Comparing the drawings, Chen Qing kept making corrections on the blank paper, completely absorbed in the work, and didn't leave the studio for a whole day.

No matter how fierce the wind and rain outside, it couldn't affect her in the slightest.

Compared to Chen Qing's composure, the atmosphere in the Sapphire Island Lord's Mansion was unusually oppressive.

Not only Sapphire Island, but all the island forces in the Gem Sea gathered together via virtual image, and everyone looked rather grim.

This gem storm was a bit beyond their expectations.

The entire Gem Sea is within its path, and according to information from the Hurricane Storm Research Institute, it is highly likely that it will make several round trips within the Gem Sea.

Moreover, the power of this hurricane was unprecedentedly terrifying!

If the previous hurricane was only at level one, then this hurricane is at level ten.

Given the current defensive capabilities of the Gem Sea's protective shield, it is highly likely that it will not be able to withstand this Gem Hurricane Storm, and the entire island may be destroyed!
