The captain of the black sailboat frowned and spoke in a bad tone.
"Xiao Litian? What do you think? Don't tell us it's just another empty promise!"
Xiao Litian chuckled and lowered his voice even more.
"That guy wants to play in the ring, doesn't he? There has to be stakes in the ring. I suggest that in the second round, we don't bet with him on those regular supplies."
Captain Ironheart replied gruffly.
"If not supplies, what are we betting on? Life? I'm ready to play!"
"Gambling with his life is too easy for him." Xiao Litian licked his cracked lips, and a hint of cruel excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Let's make a bet with him—deep-sea fish! Let's play a round-robin battle to see which side's tamed deep-sea beast is stronger and more ferocious! Even if we combine the deep-sea fish of all the captains in Section B, wouldn't that be enough to defeat his mere Genesis?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a brief silence in the group chat.
Deep-sea fish are the most common danger in this unknown sea, but also the most powerful helper.
Every powerful deep-sea war beast is cultivated by the captains with countless efforts and resources.
Using this as a bet is really cruel!
"Deep-sea fish?" Admiral Cyborg thought thoughtfully.
"That's a good idea. No matter how strong that guy's boat is or how powerful his firepower is, how many deep-sea fish can he catch by himself?"
"That's right!" A level five captain immediately agreed.
"We in District B, while I wouldn't dare say otherwise, are predatory by nature. We absolutely lead all districts in catching and domesticating deep-sea fish! If this kid wants to play around, we'll drown him in the sea of fish!"
"That's it! Let him know what true power lies ahead!"
For a moment, the crowd was excited.
The humiliation of being teased by Lu Ye and the desire for victory made them quickly grab this straw that seemed to be able to turn defeat into victory.
Seeing that the time was right, Xiao Litian immediately volunteered.
"Everyone, since everyone agrees, why don't I, Xiao, be the representative for the second round? Firstly, I have some understanding of that guy's methods."
He paused, a barely perceptible venom in his tone, "Secondly, this will allow everyone to see the sincerity of our Viper."
The captain immediately raised questions.
"Xiao Litian, can you do this? Don't let another Yu Wenliang come and screw us all!"
After all, the lessons of the past are not far away, and they have been cheated and scared.
Xiao Litian patted his chest and swore a solemn oath.
"Everyone, rest assured! I, Xiao Litian, guarantee this with my life! I've fought against Lu Ye before. His ships are powerful and his guns are impressive, but when it comes to breeding deep-sea fish, I think he's a complete novice! The few fish he's got aren't even worth a damn!"
Lu Ye, just wait, I'm going to let you watch with your own eyes as your precious baby is torn into pieces!
I will use the power of the entire B area to crush you completely!
Xiao Litian roared viciously in his heart. His old nest that was destroyed by Lu Ye was the result of his years of hard work. He would not be able to sleep or eat well unless he took revenge!
The light of the floating arena shone again, and the cold system prompt sound announced the start of the second round of challenges.
[Ring Round 2: Deep Sea Battle]
[Rules: Each side will send its deep-sea war beasts into the designated combat zone. A 30-minute countdown will be set for preparation. Once the countdown ends, the combat begins, and the battle will continue until all of one side's war beasts have lost their combat effectiveness.]
[Win/Loss Penalty: The loser's current non-bound supplies will be halved, and the level of all equipped modules and hulls will be forcibly reduced by one level.]
This punishment is a hundred times more severe than the simple material bet in the first round!
If you lose once, you’ll almost be back to square one!
Lu Ye stood on the deck of the Genesis, facing the sea breeze, with a playful smile on his lips.
Behind him, Shen Shu's cold eyes swept over the ring information, her brows slightly furrowed, but she didn't say much.
With just a clear whistle from Lu Ye, ten agile black shadows suddenly jumped out from the sea below the Genesis, broke through the water surface, drew a graceful arc in the air, and landed accurately in the designated fighting area of the arena.
Every deep-sea fish has scary scales and a fierce light flashing in its eyes. One of them is a slightly smaller deep-sea eel covered with a strange blue electric light, which is particularly eye-catching - it is the "Thunder God".
At the same time, on the other side of the ring, in Zone B camp.
Xiao Litian stood at the bow of the Viper, his massive fleet of nearly a hundred Zone B vessels densely packed behind him. With a command from him, fifty ferocious deep-sea fish of various shapes and forms swarmed into the Arena like a tide, instantly overwhelming Lu Ye with sheer numbers!
"Fifty! Fifty!"
"Hahaha! That kid Lu Ye must be dumbfounded! Ten versus fifty, and he's going to win with his head?"
The players in Area B erupted in thunderous cheers, their previous dejection swept away, as if victory was already within reach.
Xiao Litian felt the countless supportive gazes from behind him, as well as the oppressive feeling brought by his own deep-sea fish school in the arena, but his heart was not as relaxed as he appeared.
The rule that "the losing side's supplies will be halved and their equipment will be downgraded" was like a huge rock pressing on his heart.
If he loses, he will become the eternal sinner of Zone B!
He swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the most active blue electric eel among Lu Ye's ten deep-sea fish - "Thunder God".
It's you! If it weren't for you, this damn electric rat, how could my ace 'Iron Armored Crocodile Dragon' be dead and seriously injured!
Xiao Litian's teeth were chattering and fire was almost spitting out of his eyes.
In that fight, Lu Ye relied on this strange fish that could discharge electricity to defeat the enemy with fewer troops, causing him to suffer heavy losses.
But when he thought about the numerical advantage in front of him, Xiao Litian forced himself to suppress the fear in his heart, and a ferocious look of pride reappeared on his face.
He took a step forward, and his voice spread far and wide through the loudspeaker, carrying undisguised sarcasm.
"Lu Ye! You never thought about it! It must be hard to feel like you've capsized in a ditch, right? This time, I want to see how you die!"
Hearing this, Lu Ye just raised his eyelids lazily, his tone flat but filled with biting contempt.
"A bunch of ragtag, a bunch of scum gathered together temporarily, you think you are worthy enough to shout in front of me? What good is it if you have more numbers?"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Ye raised his arm, and two crystals shining with strange light flew out from his hand and accurately penetrated into the body of "Thunder God"!
[Concept Amplification: Thunder and Lightning Fury! ]
【Concept Amplification: Rapid Regeneration!】
On the virtual panel of the arena, the combat power value representing Lu Yefang's "Thunder God" suddenly began to soar wildly, and blue arcs of electricity exploded on its body surface, with astonishing momentum!
"Oh shit! It's an amplification item!"
"Two more! Where did he get so many good things?"
The cheers of the players in Area B came to an abrupt end, replaced by a chorus of gasps.
Xiao Litian's pupils suddenly shrank and his face turned ashen in an instant.
The aura of these two props...
It was clearly what dropped after he defeated those two 'Shadow Assassins' last time!
He actually still kept it and used it here to disgust me!
