"Whoosh—"

Above the second area, Zheng Hao and his group witnessed the landing of three ships in the "Sea Dragon Breaking the Wind" formation.

Zheng Hao looked at the leader, the "Spring," with the most astonished expression.

"Holy crap!"

"This is..."

"Is this [Thunder Dragon Windbreaker] + [Whirlwind Charge - Tornado]?"

"He...he also used [Combination Ship Techniques] to get here?"

"Has Hai Wuliang grown under pressure too? Is this guy going to become the protagonist?"

Zheng Hao's gaze swept across the three ships, and while he was shocked, the three ships were also staring intently at the [Shattered Star].

"What...what is this?"

"Why does it look so much like that [Shattered Star]?"

"When did this thing arrive? Who's operating it?!"

"......"

Exclamations, gasps of surprise, and sounds of unease filled the air.

Because of the previous disconnect in the competition, Hai Wuliang and the others had not seen what was happening on Zheng Hao's side. Now, seeing the ancient divine ship appear before their eyes, they were all shocked.

"It's...it's Zheng Hao?!"

"he..."

"He's piloting the [Shattered Star]? Why?!"

Inside the Spring, after Hai Wuliang dispelled the Sea Dragon Breaking Wind formation, he immediately activated the Eye of Foresight and saw a scene from 2S into the future: Zheng Hao's voice came from the Shattered Star, a sound of astonishment.

It seems to be something like: Holy crap?

right!

If I heard correctly, that's what they said!

However, given the limited time, Hai Wuliang had no idea what Zheng Hao would experience.

His gaze was fixed on the [Shattered Star], his eyes devoid of greed, filled only with the resolve to fight to the death!

"bring it on!"

"Today's match is not only a selection process for the World Finals, but also the final showdown between us!"

"I will beat you! I will be the one to walk into the Hall of Fame!"

"......"

......

"Cough cough cough—"

It wasn't until Ye Han coughed that everyone's attention shifted away from the [Shattered Star]!

"Everyone!"

"To be honest, we stopped here not to wait for you all to compete again. Rather, the mechanism in this area requires eight people to be present at the same time to activate and reach the third area."

"There are eight hidden compartments in different locations in this waterway. We need to step on them at the same time, and a saw-shaped gear blade with a cross-section covering the track will roll out from behind!"

"Through it, we might be able to break through the barrier between [Second Zone] and [Third Zone]!"

"but..."

"There's one thing I need to remind everyone: the serrations rotate very fast, meaning the closer the [ship girl] is to the back of the hidden compartment, the harder it is for her to react to the impact of the serrations!"

"Furthermore, after escaping the impact of the saw blade, everyone must immediately return to the hidden compartment to prevent it from collapsing due to lack of foot traffic and causing the gears to reverse!"

"For this level, I hope everyone can put aside all their worries and work together to pass it!"

"That's all I have to say, everyone! Whether you believe it or not, you can verify it for yourselves!"

After Ye Han finished speaking calmly, everyone fell silent for a while.

No one doubted the truthfulness of his words; they all turned their gazes toward the pitch-black distance behind them, as if measuring something.

"But..."

"There are only seven of us now..."

"It probably won't activate the [mechanism] either, right?"

Focalman was the first to break the silence, saying that even if they wanted to start the saw blade, there weren't enough people to do so!

"this..."

"Actually, I thought of it as soon as Zheng Hao came over and told me about the explosion of the [Seaweed]!"

"There's another way... to make seven people step on eight hidden compartments at the same time!"

Ye Han's voice remained calm, but his gaze was fixed on the [Unconfused Ship].

"Is it about 'enlarging' the [Unwavering] ship? Making it reach a certain length so it can step on two hidden compartments at once, meaning even with seven people, they could step on eight..."

Zheng Hao picked up where Ye Han left off, and Ye Han was slightly taken aback before silently nodding.

"That's right..."

"But... isn't there still a loophole here?"

"Oh? You thought of that too?"

"That's right! If the [Unwavering] collapses two hidden compartments at the same time, when the [Saw Blade] flies over, she's bound to shrink the ship! Even if she doesn't shrink the ship, at the moment she dodges the saw blade, because of the rebound from a hidden compartment behind her, the [Saw Blade] will definitely spin back, right?"

"This won't work!"

Zheng Hao's sharp analysis once again plunged the room into silence.

yes!

Even if Amin were willing to take on two at once, the moment she dodged the saw blade, she used the method of retracting one side of the hull...

Then, a saw blade came from behind, and the stern retracted forward. The saw blade caught up, and in the instant it rolled over the ground, it managed to step on a hidden compartment behind her. She held onto the compartment in front of her without letting go, and at this moment, the saw blade continued to rotate and move forward...

Can!

Once the saw blade leaves the hidden compartment behind it, because of the retraction of the [Unconfused] ship, there will be one less point to step on, and the saw blade will definitely turn back!

At this point, you can't let the [Unconfused], which has shrunk to the front, grow to [giant] again while being hit by the advancing [saw blade], and then step on the hidden compartment behind it, right?

It's a logical problem!

Why does this level require eight people?

Because once each person steps on a hidden compartment, even if the saw blade comes after them, they only need to dodge the saw blade for a moment. In that instant of dodging, the saw blade will step on the hidden compartment in place of the ship, maintaining its rotation.
