Lu Ye waved his hand and smiled even more deeply.
"Miss Liao, you're too polite. I'll definitely take first place. As for you guys,"
A gleam flashed in his eyes, "I have other plans."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and several crew members immediately carried out several brand-new "Siren's Wrath" rapid-fire cannons and several boxes of specially made high-explosive armor-piercing shells from the cabin.
These weapons flashed with a cold metallic light, and one could tell at a glance that they were extremely powerful.
"I just redeemed these from the system store, they're barely warm yet. Brother Qin, Miss Liao, each of your two ships will take half. This should give you a nice boost in firepower."
Lu Ye pointed at the weapons, his tone relaxed but unquestionable.
"Use them to earn points. If your points are still a little short before the end of the Easter egg, I will control the speed at which the 'Lucky One' earns points, giving you a 'score boost' to ensure that old Cai Jinwu doesn't get a single point!"
"Suppressing the score?" A hint of surprise flashed in Qin He's eyes, and then he understood.
This is a high-end gameplay that utilizes system rules to precisely control points while ensuring your own first place, sending your allies to high positions while completely crushing your enemies.
"Great! Really great!" Liao Qingyue gave Lu Ye a thumbs up, her eyes full of admiration and excitement, her voice clear and crisp.
"Don't worry, Boss Lu. I guarantee to complete the mission and leave Old Dog Cai with nowhere to cry!"
Although Qin He didn't say much, his eyes showed admiration and a hint of excitement. He nodded silently and began to direct his men to receive weapons.
With these powerful weapons, their chances of achieving a higher ranking and squeezing Cai Jinwu out will undoubtedly increase greatly.
On the other hand, Cai Jinwu knew nothing about this.
He was gritting his teeth, personally supervising the battle, commanding his remaining deep-sea hunters and those exploited new players to work hard to clear out the surrounding sea monsters.
After a desperate fight, the points of the "Wu Di" finally rose again. Although it was still far behind the "Lucky Guy", it at least widened the gap with the third-place "Fei Yang", and its second-place position was temporarily stable.
Cai Jinwu wiped the blood and sweat off his face, looked at his second place on the leaderboard, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn, finally...finally saved it...
He thought to himself that as long as he could get the second prize, he would have a chance to make a comeback.
However, before he could completely relax, he caught a glimpse of a number on the leaderboard jumping wildly in an abnormal manner!
He suddenly looked closely and saw that the "Fei Yang" which had been firmly in third place was soaring up like a wild horse at a heart-pounding speed!
"Feiyang?! That little bitch Liao Qingyue?!"
Cai Jinwu's teeth were chattering, and an ominous premonition gripped his heart.
"Everyone, pay attention!" Cai Jinwu roared into the communicator like a mad tiger.
"Don't cannonballs cost money?! Fire them! Points! I want points! If anyone is slow any more, I'll chop them up and feed them to the fish!"
The remaining crew members were frightened by his hysterical roar and hurriedly increased the frequency of their attacks.
The sound of gunfire, the wails of sea monsters, and the shouts of crew members intertwined together, composing a melody of despair on the blood-red sea.
What the hell?!
Cai Jinwu stared at the rankings, his eyes almost popping out of his sockets.
What kind of magic medicine did Liao Qingyue take?
When did her crew become so fierce?!
He cursed in his heart, and a surge of evil fire rushed straight to the top of his head.
It must be Lu Ye!
It’s that little bastard behind the scenes again!
It's really haunting!
However, no matter how hard the "Wu Di" tried, or how it squeezed out every last bit of potential, their points growth rate was always steadily surpassed by the "Fei Yang".
It was as if there was an invisible hand, precisely controlling the gap between the two sides, neither more nor less, just enough to allow Cai Jinwu to feel the despair of not being able to catch up.
Little did they know that at this moment, on the "Fei Yang" and Qin He's "Qing Tian", several elite crew members were skillfully operating the newly acquired "Siren's Wrath" rapid-fire cannon under Lu Ye's remote command. Combined with Shen Shu's precise weakness marking, they were like the most efficient slaughtering machines, clearing out the sea monster areas one by one.
Lu Ye even temporarily "seconded" half of his combatants, just for this final fatal blow.
Cai Jinwu's chest was heaving violently, veins on his forehead were throbbing, he stared at the scoreboard, watching the points of "Fei Yang" approaching little by little, and then surpassing!
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and his vision went dark.
Second place, gone too!
He staggered back dejectedly, leaning against the cold side of the boat, breathing heavily.
Never mind, never mind… Third… Third is fine too…
His heart was chilled, and he could only comfort himself in this way, at least he was not the last one, at least he could still keep the ship and some core supplies.
He subconsciously glanced at the points of the fourth place on the leaderboard. It was a strange ID called "Qin He", and the points were less than half of his "Wu Di Hao".
Humph, at this distance, he can’t catch up even if he flies!
Cai Jinwu felt a little relieved and finally found a little comfort.
In the short term, the fourth place will definitely not pose a threat to him.
After taking a breath, Cai Jinwu's suppressed anger found an outlet again.
He turned around suddenly, and his gloomy eyes swept over the silent crew members on the deck like a poisonous snake.
"A bunch of trash!" His voice was hoarse and cruel.
"You're all a bunch of good-for-nothings! When did Lu Ye's men sneak onto our allies' ships to deliver equipment? Are you all blind?! You didn't notice a single one?! And now? Look at how fast the Lucky One is gaining points! And look at you! Even pigs are more useful than you!"
The crew members who were scolded by him all lowered their heads and dared not speak out.
Many people cursed in their hearts.
It's all because of your poor command. First you offended Lu Ye, and then you messed up the mental link and brought down those deep-sea hunters!
Now they blame us!
Just as Cai Jinwu was furious at his men and venting his rage and helplessness, he didn't notice at all that several agile figures were taking advantage of the chaos on the ship and quietly sneaking up to the huge engine room at the stern of the "Emperor Wu" like geckos.
It was the Scorpion Man and the Young Man with Glasses who had been threatened by him before, and they finally chose to take the risk.
[System prompt: There are five minutes left before the "Bloody Hunting Grounds" special map closes!]
The cold system prompt sound rang in every player's ears like a death knell.
In the command room of the "Lucky Guy", Lu Ye glanced at the countdown, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he spoke to Qin He through the communicator.
"Brother Qin, it's almost time, get ready to receive the 'balance'!"
