The two looked at each other silently for a few seconds. Qin Luo took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She turned to Lu Ye, and although her voice was still trembling, it was extremely clear.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu, if...if these three guns can be immediately equipped on the Windtalker, I am willing to go with you."
She turned to Liao Qingyue again, her eyes slightly red.
"Captain, the Windtalker is in dire need of firepower. My reconnaissance... you can share my vision through the communicator from now on, and I can help everyone."
Liao Qingyue's lips moved a few times, and finally turned into a heavy sigh, looking at Lu Ye with complicated eyes.
"You...you have already planned this?"
This guy is simply a devil!
How does he know what we lack most?
"Follow me, and you will never regret it." Lu Ye snapped his fingers, a smile of accomplishment on his face.
"Xiong Ren! Bring some men over here and dismantle our three spare level 5 cannons and install them on Captain Liao and her crew's Windtalker! Send the ammunition as well, and remember to teach them how to operate them!"
"Okay, Brother Lu!" A rough response came from outside the cabin, and a burly man with several crew members quickly took action.
Liao Qingyue was stunned by Lu Ye's decisive behavior.
Three level five main guns!
In this survival game where human life is worthless and resources are scarce, every advanced weapon is enough to bring about a qualitative change in a team's strength and is a trump card that can save lives!
Lu Ye actually gave it to him without even blinking an eye.
For a moment, she actually felt a little guilty about her previous "despicable and shameless" comments.
Maybe he is not just taking advantage of the situation, but really has the strength and confidence to do so?
She took a deep breath, took out a palm-sized, precisely shaped metal instrument from the storage compartment at her waist, and handed it to Lu Ye.
"This is a 'portable high-precision geological sonar detector' we obtained while exploring a ruin. Although it's not combat equipment, it's very useful for exploring underwater terrain and finding special mineral veins. It's a little extra compensation for us."
"Oh? Good stuff!" Lu Ye took it without hesitation, weighed it, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Captain Liao is really straightforward! I'll be honored to refuse."
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and this thing sounds quite advanced.
Su Baiyue, who was standing by, saw all of this and just shook her head helplessly.
This guy is trying to get something for nothing again.
Although the three level five cannons were precious, with his luck in opening the initial box and the upgrade speed of the "Lucky Man", he would be able to get them again sooner or later.
He didn't lose out at all in exchanging the equipment that he couldn't use temporarily for a special professional with great potential.
She knew Lu Ye too well; this guy never did business at a loss.
The transaction was completed and the atmosphere in the cabin eased a lot.
Liao Qingyue looked at the real-time footage sent back by her team members of the Windtalker installing new guns, and a smile finally appeared on her face.
She looked at Lu Ye and her tone became much more sincere.
"Mr. Lu, thank you very much. If there's ever a need for our Windtalker in the future, as long as it's within moral bounds, we'll do our best."
Then, she seemed to remember something and asked curiously.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Lu, what are your plans next? They seem to have been badly injured. Are you planning to find a place to rest?"
Lu Ye chuckled and blinked mysteriously.
"Rest? That's so boring."
He looked out the window at the rough sea, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
"We're planning on going to that 'special map' we mentioned earlier and exploring it!"
When Liao Qingyue heard the words "special map", her eyebrows frowned slightly, and then her face brightened.
"The sea area Mr. Lu is referring to? Coincidentally, our Windtalker also obtained a fragmentary chart of a similar area."
She tapped her fingertips on the tactical tablet a few times, calling up an image of an area marked with skulls and unknown symbols.
"It's just... this place is really remote. We've estimated that it would take at least five or six days to sail at full speed. And..."
She changed the subject with a serious tone.
"In two days, the system will notify you that the next round of Easter eggs will be refreshed. Missing out on a readily available Easter egg for an unknown 'special map' seems like a loss."
Humph, you want to get rid of us? I also have information about this special map.
But the timing is really awkward.
Liao Qingyue thought to herself that she didn't completely trust Lu Ye, but she didn't want to miss any potential opportunities.
Hearing this, Lu Ye raised the corner of his mouth meaningfully and waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Distance? Haha, what I'm least afraid of is distance!" He patted the survival system terminal on his waist, and a line of small words popped up on the screen at the right time.
[Current mileage accumulation: 403/500, 97 standard nautical miles remaining to the next level "Lucky One" reward package]
Perfect! With this trip, maybe I can even max out my mileage here and get a big gift pack. Wouldn’t that be great?
Lu Ye's eyes flashed with eagerness, "I estimate that the level of this 'lucky guy' will be raised by at least one level after this Easter egg.
By then, hehe..."
His money-obsessed look left Liao Qingyue speechless, yet secretly frightened.
This guy's "lucky guy" status is upgrading too fast!
Seeing that Lu Ye had made up his mind, Liao Qingyue gritted her teeth, as if she had made up her mind.
"Since Mr. Lu is determined to go, we, the Windtalker, are willing to accompany him!"
She puffed out her chest, her tone a little proud.
"I can't say anything else, but our mobility is absolutely top-notch in this sea! Even if we encounter any trouble, we can respond in time."
There's something strange about this guy, so that special map might have some amazing benefits.
Following him, the risk is great, but the benefits may also be...
Liao Qingyue quickly weighed the pros and cons.
Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative, at least you can get some intelligence.
Lu Ye glanced at her and shrugged noncommittally, which was his tacit agreement.
Are you a follower?
As long as they don't lag behind, having more ships to share the firepower is not a bad thing.
The fleet set sail again, heading towards the unknown "special map" at high speed.
Qin Luo, who had just joined the "Lucky One", was now standing by the porthole of the cockpit, looking at the blue sea rapidly receding, with anxiety written all over her little face.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to turn to Lu Ye, who was debugging the newly acquired geological sonar detector, and asked in a soft voice.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu, why...why do we have to go to that 'special map'?"
She twisted the corner of her clothes, her voice trembling slightly.
"I've heard it mentioned before, there are... a lot of very scary monsters in there, some of which are even beyond the current level of what a survival game should have. It's too dangerous..."
