Meng Qingyin hadn't used her [Special Vehicle Upgrade Card] yet, so she rummaged through her system inventory and found it.

[Special Vehicle Upgrade Card: Upgrades your vehicle to an amphibious vehicle; go sailing the seas!]

The previous map was unusable, but this map should work, right?

She clicked to use it.

[You have used a special vehicle upgrade card. Your vehicle is being upgraded. Please wait inside the vehicle for a moment.]

Meng Qingyin sat quietly in the driver's seat and waited. She heard a series of clicking sounds and felt the car shaking.

Qingfeng, Qin Feng, and Daxue all ran over, their faces showing concern.

"What happened? Did we encounter a storm? Why is the train suddenly shaking so violently?"

Meng Qingyin explained, "It's not a storm, I'm upgrading the train, it'll be fine in a little while."

Everyone was relieved and went back to their own business.

Meng Qingyin asked Daxue, "Daxue, can you store seawater into the ice and snow space?"

There's plenty of water here, so Da Xue and the other two should be thriving.

Da Xue was somewhat discouraged: "It's not possible yet. I can only control pure water. Seawater has a complex composition, and I haven't mastered that yet."

However, its discouragement was only temporary. Soon, Daxue was full of confidence again. "But don't worry, Master, I won't give up because of a little setback. I will definitely be able to use the seawater skillfully."

Da Xue has always been hardworking and ambitious, which makes Meng Qingyin very gratified: "Where there's a will, there's a way, you will definitely succeed."

Da Xue smiled shyly and went back to continue practicing, with San Xue following her eagerly.

The bumpy ride lasted about three minutes before the train upgrade was completed.

Vehicle: Amphibious train (currently in train mode, click to switch to ship mode)

Maximum speed: 200 km/h

Fuel consumption: 3L/100km

Features: Intelligent system, hazard detection, voice control, exploration supply box, map

Current mileage: km

Today's target mileage: 200km

Meng Qingyin switched to the ship form. There were no significant changes inside, except that the carriages were replaced by cabins. There was a very spacious deck at the stern of the ship, with a good view from the deck.

【Vehicle: Amphibious vessel (Currently in vessel mode, click to switch to train mode)】

Description: The ship can withstand sea winds of force 12.

Maximum speed: 200 km/h

Fuel consumption: 3L/100km

Features: Intelligent system, hazard detection, voice control, exploration supply box, map

Current mileage: km

Today's target mileage: 200km

Looking at the description that "the ship can withstand level twelve sea winds," Meng Qingyin suddenly realized that the sea would not always be calm, and there would be storms as well.

A Category 12 gale is the highest level of hurricane, with extremely strong destructive power. The waves it generates can reach tens of meters high, and vehicles have little chance of withstanding a hurricane.

Even her train would probably struggle to withstand it, and other players' vehicles would likely be even more vulnerable.

It turns out that the dangers 007 mentioned at the beginning didn't just refer to sea monsters, but also to the raging storms at sea.

However, things have been calm so far, which is why players have overlooked it.

A sense of urgency suddenly rose in Meng Qingyin's heart. She immediately went to the trading hall to search for vehicle upgrade cards, but they were all regular upgrade cards and there were no special vehicle upgrade cards.

She considered posting the message in the chat area, but then thought that posting it would only cause panic and would have no other purpose.

Her special vehicle upgrade card was obtained by completing the Mermaid quest; it's unique in the entire server, let alone in Zone 30.

Players have no other way to obtain special vehicle upgrade cards.

But the main system certainly wouldn't create an unsolvable problem; there must be some other way to withstand the strong winds.

Meng Qingyin subtly reminded everyone in the chat area: "The sea is not land. Although it is calm now, a strong wind may suddenly come. Everyone should use the inflatable boats to find more supply boxes and try to upgrade their vehicles."

No male lead: "Oh right, there will be strong winds at sea. I completely overlooked that! No, no, I need to upgrade my vehicle right away."

Yanxi: "We're all at sea now, can't the game update our vehicles to become ships?"

The adorable little princess said, "Yes, the road is very similar in color to the sea. I almost drove into the sea several times. It's too dangerous."

Zuiyuelouhuan: "If there really is a strong wind, and the destructive power of a strong wind at sea is so strong, can our vehicles really withstand it?"

Ye Tingyu said, "That's hard to say. Even ships have a hard time withstanding a Force 12 sea wind. But we need to upgrade our vehicles. With a heavier vehicle, at least we won't be capsized."

The little grass god of Sumeru: "Huh? Will there really be a Force 12 gale?"

Making a strong statement! Ga: "Whether we have it or not, it's always good to be prepared. Everyone should listen to Boss Meng and upgrade our vehicles quickly."

A 97-year-old divorced woman with two children said, "Now it seems that the kayak has really come in handy, since not everyone can swim."

Tan, who was just trying to slack off, said: "Stop talking! Do you know how terrified a landlubber who can't swim is when facing a vast ocean?"

"..."

Seeing that everyone was starting to take the vehicle upgrade seriously, Meng Qingyin finally felt relieved.

Besides supply crates, killing sea monsters is another way to obtain supplies; you might even get special cards to upgrade your vehicles.

Oh, and there's also a medal shop.
