Lu Yuan looked at the distant sea and found that the other side had not sent any more ships to intercept them.
So he turned to look at Ma Bin beside him. The other man was sitting on the ground without saying a word, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"Didn't you say they were all very vengeful? Why don't they seem like they're going to come out and fight again?"
Ma Bin leaned against the wall to stand up, squinting as he looked into the distance: "I don't know, they probably haven't encountered this situation before! Seven ships have sunk at once, they must be struggling to keep up! I think they've probably reported this matter by now!"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly: "Okay! Since they don't want to move, let's just log in!"
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The yacht continued to move forward, with various debris constantly drifting by on the sea surface, and every now and then a few frozen corpses would hit the hull, making a "thump thump" sound.
With less than a hundred kilometers to go, Lu Yuan could even see the distant continent through his binoculars. On the surface, he appeared calm and collected, but inside he was extremely excited.
The long-lost mainland has finally returned, and Lu Yuan couldn't wait to set off and go ashore. However, looking at the scattered lights in the distance that flickered from time to time, Lu Yuan felt that things were far from simple.
Especially those ruthless pirates in the black market, they would never just swallow this loss.
Lu Yuan guessed correctly. Although the black market forces on the shore seem to be making no moves, the shipwreck incident has already been reported to their higher-ups.
Inside a luxurious villa, the lights were on, and people were hurrying to and fro, constantly delivering various reports.
A young man sitting on the sofa had a gloomy face. He looked at the report that was brought in with a serious expression.
"Brother Chen, this is a report that just arrived from the biological research office!"
The man turned around and took the report.
"Huh? Carp scales? How is that possible? How could that giant beast be a carp?"
"Experts' analysis concluded that it is a carp, because through various genetic comparisons, the scales of this giant beast show that they are exactly the same as those of a carp! Experts also stated that this giant beast must have been formed through mutation!"
The man's face was extremely grim: "Damn it! How could something like this appear! How come we never noticed it before?"
The researchers stood by silently. They tried to catch marine life every day, but the catch was so small that it was impossible for them to conduct any research.
"Let's see if there's any chance to bring this giant beast out. I want to study it carefully! Let's see what exactly can make this carp grow to such a huge size!"
Then a short, stout young man next to the man walked up to him and whispered, "Brother Han, this beast is so big, are we really going to kill it?"
The man nodded silently: "Of course, if we don't kill this giant beast, more people will break in, and we won't be able to complete the tasks assigned to them by our superiors."
The short, stout young man could only nod and say nothing more.
Lu Yuan continued to steer the boat forward, and they were now less than fifty kilometers from the sea.
Xiao Shan was getting a little restless waiting in the cabin, so she secretly slipped into the wheelhouse: "How's it going? I see a lot of lights ahead, does that mean we're almost there?"
Xiao Shan's voice carried an undisguised joy.
When he saw Xiao Shan come in, Lu Yuan pulled up a chair for her and sat her down in front of him.
"Yes, we're almost there, but I feel like there's something I haven't done yet."
"Oh? What's wrong? Did you find something?"
Lu Yuan shook his head slightly and looked ahead: "It's precisely because nothing has happened that I feel like it's the calm before the storm. We've taken down seven of their ships, and these people haven't even made a sound. It gives me the feeling that these pirates are definitely brewing some more dangerous plan."
Xiao Shan's face turned deathly pale. Whenever Lu Yuan mentioned having this idea, bad luck would almost always follow.
"Pah, pah, pah! We're almost at shore, how can we say such things?"
Lu Yuan smiled wryly and followed suit, making a "pui" gesture.
Ma Bin, who was squatting on the ground, was still leaning against the railing with his hands behind his back. It seemed that this position made him feel more comfortable. Suddenly, he stood up abruptly, which startled Xiao Shan.
Seeing Xiao Shan's reaction, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile: "Don't be nervous, this is our guide named Ma Bin. He has agreed to take them to the black market to get identity tags."
Xiao Shan breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Ma Bin, and then ignored him, while Ma Bin stared quietly into the distance.
Was there a giant beast just now lurking in the sea?
"Yes, didn't you just see it?"
After pondering for a while, Ma Bin suddenly exclaimed, "This is bad. They might be trying to hunt down the giant beast."
Upon hearing the other party's words, Lu Yuan was immediately startled. He instantly understood that Ma Bin's words were not unfounded, as he also had an ominous premonition. He hadn't expected that the people in the black market this time were not targeting him, but rather the giant beast he had brought.
However, the behemoth is currently patrolling the entire sea area, and it will pounce on any unusual movement it detects.
