Xu Ye turned around and walked into the cabin, and Qin He hurriedly followed.
When the heavy alloy hatch closed behind him, blocking out the noisy shouts outside and the whimpering of the sea breeze, the moment Qin He stepped into the Breaking Waves, he was completely dumbfounded!
What did he see?!
The spacious and bright passageway had metal walls with soft indicator lights flashing, and the air was filled with the faint smell of engine oil and the hum of energy cores.
Embedded in the walls were huge display screens, on which scrolled data streams and charts that he could not understand at all.
Further away, one can vaguely see some equipment modules with sci-fi designs that clearly surpass the current technological level of this survival game. They are flashing with faint blue or red light, and the complex circuits extend and connect like works of art.
Is this really the player's ship?!
This is like... the interior of an interstellar exploration vessel from some highly advanced civilization, right?!
Qin He took a deep breath, feeling that his worldview had been severely impacted.
Who is this Lu Ye...?!
Lu Ye ignored his shock and walked straight to a huge control console covered with buttons and screens, pointing at a complex radar scanning interface on it.
"Don't just stand there, astronomer. Use your abilities to maximize the range and accuracy of this thing! I want to know everything that big guy does, and... what kind of food he's interested in."
While they were going deep into the cabin to carry out technical upgrades, another "feast" had already begun on the wide deck of the Breaking Waves.
Xiao Yiyi wore special protective glasses and gloves, with a focused expression and skillful movements as she handled the remaining four huge deep-sea ghost octopus corpses.
The huge tentacles were cut off, the ink sacs were carefully removed and preserved, and some special tissues and internal organs were also sorted and placed in sample boxes.
Next to her, several players who were temporarily recruited and had some cooking skills had set up a temporary barbecue grill under the command of Xiong Ren.
Giant ghost octopus tentacle segments are brushed with a secret sauce and grilled directly over the leaping flames!
It was late at night, but the deck of the Wavebreaker was as bright as day.
The makeshift barbecue grill was ablaze with flames, and the huge ghost octopus tentacles were sizzling as they were roasted. The rich aroma of meat mixed with the spicy aroma of the secret sauce domineeringly penetrated into everyone's nostrils.
Xiao Yiyi, Xiong Ren and the others were busy as hell, while on the small boats gathered around, countless pairs of eyes were fixed on the "gluttonous feast" on the Breaking Waves, their Adam's apples rolling up and down uncontrollably.
"Gulp..." Someone swallowed first, which triggered a series of swallowing sounds.
"Oh my god...this smell...so foul!"
"God Lu is performing a public execution! I'm so greedy!"
"If I could just get a small piece... No, even just smelling it would be fine!"
A group of starving ghosts reincarnated.
Lu Ye leaned against the side of the boat, looking at the eager players with a faint smile on his lips.
He didn't believe that these people really dared to attack the Breaking Wave just for Stuttering at this time.
Just as everyone was tortured to death by the fragrance——
“Crash—boom!”
The calm sea surface suddenly exploded!
It was as if an underwater volcano erupted, and countless sea water was pushed high into the sky. Then, dense black shadows jumped out from the boiling sea water like a rainstorm!
"Plop! Snap!"
All kinds of sea fish, shrimps, crabs, and even some small squids and strange deep-sea creatures fell onto the decks of nearby ships like dumplings, and some even jumped directly into the players' arms!
"Fish! Lots of fish!"
"I'm rich! It's raining seafood!"
"Hurry up and pick them up! These are all points and food!"
After a brief moment of astonishment, most of the players burst into deafening cheers and rushed frantically towards the "windfall", and the deck was filled with chaos and surprise.
Greed overwhelmed the slight fear of the unknown. After all, who would refuse supplies delivered to their doorstep?
However, amidst this ecstatic clamor, Lu Ye's eyes suddenly became as sharp as a knife.
Here we go! The appetizers are over, it’s time for the main event!
He waved his hand violently; the sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard throughout the Breakers.
"Old Bear, Yiyi, pack up! Everyone, set sail! Full speed ahead! Target... 300 meters ahead!"
"Ah? Brother Lu, let's go now?" Xiong Ren was grilling enthusiastically and was stunned when he heard this.
Xiao Yiyi reacted very quickly and immediately started packing up the instruments and samples: "Got it!"
The engine of the Breaking Waves let out a low roar, the hull shook slightly, and then it broke through the water like an arrow and rushed forward, leaving behind only a white trail and the "fishermen" with stunned faces.
"Mr. Lu Ye!" Qin He staggered out of the cabin, holding onto the porthole, his face paler than before.
"Our direction... the detector shows that we are approaching the head of the giant whale at high speed! Its main sensory organs and huge mouth are in that direction! We are walking into a trap! We will miss the best time to evacuate!"
Is this young man crazy?!
Lu Ye didn't even turn his head, his voice as steady as a deep sea reef: "What are you panicking about?" He glanced at Qin He.
"Do you think my boat is made of paper?"
He patted the console, a hint of barely perceptible pride in his tone.
"The Wavebreaker is currently certified at Level Five. Its engines, structure, and armor have all been extensively upgraded. At this speed, it'll easily outrun those small boats. As for that giant... well, even if it wants to catch up to me, it'll have to consider its own weight first!"
A level five ship?!
Qin He's pupils suddenly shrank.
His research vessel had been upgraded to level four with great effort. Whether in tonnage or performance, it was nothing compared to the Wavebreaker!
He clearly remembered that when Lu Ye had done business with him before, he had never revealed this level of wealth!
This Lu Ye... is definitely hiding something!
The level five he mentioned is probably a conservative estimate!
Qin He's mind raced, and although he was filled with fear and doubt, he was now in a difficult situation.
He gritted his teeth and immediately gave orders to his crew through the team channel.
"All forward! Follow the Wavebreaker!"
On the sea, nearly half of the large ships with a deep draft and a certain size, including Qin He's scientific research vessel, led by the Wave-Breaking Ship, chose to follow Lu Ye's course without hesitation and cut through the waves.
This scene naturally fell into the eyes of Li Yuntian who was far away.
He stood at the bow of the Shark Hunter, looking at the ships following the Wavebreaker with a frown on his face.
What is that kid Lu Ye doing again?
Does he really have some special methods that can make so many people obey him?
