Lu Ye ignored his chatter and looked thoughtfully at the groundhog in his arms, which was still twisting restlessly and growling in a certain direction.
This little thing...reacts so violently?
Could it be that...
Yu Wenliang laughed enough, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, took out an old pocket watch, opened it with a click, and glanced at the time.
"Hmph, I won't waste my time with you poor bastards!" The smug look on his face became even stronger, and his voice also revealed a condescending tone.
"The last three minutes! The entrance to 'Ghost Shadow' is about to open! For those who want to follow me, Yu Wenliang, to make a fortune, now is your last chance!"
He paused, a greedy glint in his eyes, and the lion opened his mouth.
"However, considering that some people are being so indebted and wasting everyone's precious time, the guide fee... naturally needs to be increased! Now, six boxes of bread per person! Not a single piece less!"
The price has doubled!
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding small fleets, which were already stretched thin, were suddenly in an uproar.
"What? Six boxes? Yu Wenliang, you're stealing money!"
"Wasn't it just three boxes? How could the price go up so quickly?"
"This is too dark! We can't get it out!"
Some players who were already financially limited showed expressions of despair and anger on their faces.
Six boxes of bread were almost enough to bankrupt them.
After weighing the pros and cons, many people could only grit their teeth and choose to turn around and leave, giving up the opportunity to enter the secret realm.
"Humph, a bunch of poor bastards! You have no shame!"
Yuwen Liang looked at the ships that left in disappointment, spat in disdain, but a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
With fewer people, there will naturally be more soup to share.
He proudly commanded his ship, slowly sailing towards the entrance he had identified, with a look of confidence, quietly waiting for the door to the secret realm to open.
One minute... two minutes...
The surrounding sea surface remained calm, with thick fog rolling in, but no unusual phenomena occurred.
Fine beads of sweat began to appear on Yu Wenliang's forehead, and the confidence in his heart began to waver little by little.
What's going on? Time's almost up...
Could it be that my 'lighting technique' went awry? Impossible!
"Haha, it seems that my luck is pretty good."
Just when Yu Wenliang was getting anxious, a lazy voice came from not far away.
Yu Wenliang's heart skipped a beat and he turned his head suddenly to look.
Just in front of the Genesis, the fog that was originally too thick to dissolve was now torn open by a huge hole as if by a pair of invisible hands!
Behind the hole was not an ordinary sea surface, but a twisted, rotating, and strange space emitting a faint blue light. It was like a huge whirlpool, full of unknown temptations and dangers.
That is the entrance to "Ghost Shadow"!
And this entrance suddenly appeared right in front of Lu Ye's bow, very close!
"What?!" Yu Wenliang's eyes almost popped out, and the blood color on his face instantly faded, turning pale.
How is that possible?! How could the entrance be there?!
My 'Lamp Lighting Technique' clearly points this way!
The captains beside him who had spent a lot of money were all dumbfounded at this moment.
They stared at the secret gate emitting an alluring light, then looked at the long distance between themselves and the gate, and the Genesis that had begun to slowly sail towards the entrance. Their faces turned darker than the bottom of a pot.
On the "Genesis", Xiong Ren, Su Baiyue and others have begun to organize the crew and prepare to enter the secret realm in batches!
"I've been tricked!"
"Yuwenliang! You bastard! What the hell are you pointing to?"
"Hurry! Go over there! Don't let them get in first!"
The several ships following Yu Wenliang were in an uproar in an instant, and the captains cursed and regretted their actions.
They originally thought they had seized the initiative and found a good position, but in the end, they were the group farthest from the real entrance!
Yu Wenliang was also shocked. Looking at the entrance to the secret realm that was within his reach, the greed in his heart instantly overwhelmed his fear, and he screamed at the top of his lungs.
"What are you all standing there for? Charge! Seize the entrance! Whoever gets in first gets the treasure!"
For a moment, all the ships that still had hope were at full speed, rushing madly towards the direction where Lu Ye was, and the sea was suddenly in chaos.
At this critical moment, Lu Ye gave orders calmly with a sneer on his face.
The huge ship of "Genesis" slowly moved sideways in front of everyone's horrified eyes, like an indestructible fortress on the sea, blocking the only entrance to the secret realm!
"Excuse me, everyone." Lu Ye's voice was clearly transmitted throughout the sea area through the loudspeaker, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
"I, Lu, was the first to discover the entrance to this 'Ghost Shadow Mystery'. According to the rules, if you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money for passage, right?"
He glanced at the anxious captains and added slowly.
"Not much. Ten boxes of bread per ship, or supplies of equivalent value. First come, first served. No credit."
"Lu Ye! You're taking advantage of the situation! It's so unfair!"
Yu Wenliang was so angry that he jumped up and down and cursed. The people he had worked so hard to arouse were about to be shattered by Lu Ye's move.
Lu Ye didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, he just winked at Su Baiyue.
Su Baiyue understood what he meant and pointed the gun at Yu Wenliang's dilapidated fishing boat again.
"boom--!"
There was another loud bang. Although it was just a warning shot, it hit the sea next to Yu Wenliang's ship, causing a towering water column. However, the destructive aura made everyone silent.
Yuwen Liang was like a duck with its neck strangled. The rest of his words were choked back. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word. His face turned from white to blue, and then from blue to purple. It was a very exciting scene.
The captains around him were not fools either and reacted instantly.
"Yu Wenliang, this grandson, betrayed us!"
A captain with a face full of flesh slapped his thigh suddenly, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
"Brothers! This guy named Yu took our supplies, but he can't even find the right door! Instead of letting him take advantage of us, why not give the supplies to Boss Lu? Maybe he can even find a way to survive!"
Before he finished speaking, he directly commanded his small broken boat to turn the bow and rushed towards Yu Wenliang's fishing boat viciously!
"Yuwenliang! Give me back my bread!"
"And my fuel!"
"If you don't pay me back, I'll tear your boat apart today!"
The power of role models is infinite.
Someone takes the lead and others immediately follow.
Instead of confronting a behemoth like Lu Ye, it is better to deal with the culprit Yu Wenliang first!
