Lu Ye tensed his body almost reflexively, his eyes instantly became sharp, and one hand subconsciously reached for the fire axe at his waist!
What?!
But then he heard several similar "plop" sounds.
He suddenly remembered something - during heavy rain, the fish in the sea would sometimes jump out of the water due to lack of oxygen or being swept by the wind and waves!
He immediately went to the only small window of the cabin, squinted his eyes and looked out with the faint light of the torch inside and the occasional lightning that streaked across the night sky.
really!
On the bumpy deck of the speedboat, several palm-sized sea fish were jumping in vain. They were obviously uninvited guests that had just "flown" out of the sea!
Food delivered to your door!
Lu Ye's eyes lit up, just right!
He had just opened the system treasure chest and installed the [Excellent Automatic Fishing Claw], but he hadn't tried it out yet!
He quickly walked to the side of the ship, where a device similar to a crane arm was fixed, but with several sharp metal claws at the end.
He grabbed the joystick, aimed at a lively sea fish on the deck, and pressed the trigger button!
“Swish—Crack!”
The metal claws popped out suddenly at an extremely fast speed!
However... it's empty!
The fish just turned over and avoided the claw attack.
Lu Ye frowned.
The light was too dim and the boat was shaking violently, making it difficult to aim.
He tried a few more times, but either he caught nothing or only scratched the fish scales. He was unsuccessful every time.
"Let me try?"
Next to him, Su Baiyue, who had been observing silently, suddenly spoke.
Lu Ye looked at her with some surprise.
Su Baiyue's face showed a hint of eagerness.
"I've played some claw machines before, and the eyesight and feel are okay."
Can claw machines be the same as catching fish?
Lu Ye complained in his heart, but seeing how serious she was, and considering that he had failed repeatedly, he nodded and made way.
"Okay, come on."
Su Baiyue took a deep breath, walked to the fishing claw, and gripped the joystick.
Her eyes instantly became focused, staring at the constantly jumping targets on the deck.
When another fish jumped to the right position, she pressed the button decisively!
“Swoosh—Crack!”
This time, the metal claws closed precisely and firmly grasped a still struggling sea fish!
"I got it!" Su Baiyue exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Ye's eyes also lit up. He didn't expect that she was so capable!
In the next few attempts, Su Baiyue showed amazing stability and hit rate. He successfully caught fish six or seven times out of ten!
That concentration and precision really gives me the feeling of being a master at playing claw machines.
"You're great!" Lu Ye couldn't help but praise him, then nodded with satisfaction, "Keep going! Catch a few more! Clean them up later, and we'll have a grilled fish dinner tonight!"
"good!"
After receiving Lu Ye's affirmation, Su Baiyue seemed to become interested and operated the fishing claws more skillfully.
One, two, three... Soon, she caught more than ten lively sea fish on the deck.
Looking at these unexpected gains, Su Baiyue was secretly amazed.
It's only been a few days since the game started! This man named Lu Ye has not only upgraded his speedboat and built a wooden house, but he's even got something as advanced as an automatic fishing claw!
It's simply against the will of heaven!
Following him, perhaps I could really survive longer in this cruel game...
Only when almost all the "uninvited guests" on the deck were caught did Lu Ye call for a stop with satisfaction.
At this time, six hours had passed since the system notification sounded and the Raging Sea officially began.
Six hours.
It was enough to make hunger creep up everyone's stomach walls again.
The storm still showed no signs of stopping. Outside the window were leaden-gray waves and the howling wind. Inside the wooden house, the firelight flickered, illuminating three faces, each with their own thoughts.
"Gurgle..." An untimely sound broke the brief silence.
It was Su Baiyue's stomach that was protesting.
Her pretty face turned red and she lowered her head a little embarrassedly.
When Lu Ye heard the voice, a mysterious smile appeared on his lips.
Instead of dealing with the fish immediately, he turned and walked towards a large waterproof storage box in the corner that had not attracted much attention before.
"Are you hungry?" Lu Ye asked without raising his head while fiddling with the buckles on the box.
Shen Shu and Su Baiyue both nodded.
I was frightened and tired just now, and I had consumed a lot of physical energy. Now that I relax, the feeling of hunger comes like a tide.
With a few "clicks", the box was opened.
The next second, Shen Shu and Su Baiyue's eyes widened almost at the same time!
I saw Lu Ye moving things out of the box with a loud noise——
A shiny portable gas stove! A spare can of gas!
A double-flavor hot pot! A few packets of base, the aroma of Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, and butter seems to overflow even through the packaging!
Then there were vacuum-packed beef rolls, lamb slices, shrimp balls, fish balls, crab sticks, frozen tofu, wide noodles, various vegetables, and even a few cans of iced happy water?!
"This... this is...?!" Su Baiyue stuttered, almost unable to believe his eyes.
This is simply like bringing Hai Mou Lao here, right?!
Abnormal! Just how outrageous is this guy's reserves?!
Su Baiyue was complaining madly in her heart, but when she looked at Lu Ye, besides shock, there was also a bit of admiration?
Shen Shu also had a dazed look on her face. Seeing a full set of hot pot equipment in such an environment was too shocking!
She swallowed subconsciously and stared at the ingredients with burning eyes.
"Ahem," Lu Ye was amused by their reaction and cleared his throat.
"Lucky! I got the [Deluxe Hot Pot Feast Set] from the box I opened earlier. It's cold out, so this is perfect for warming up."
He quickly lit the casserole, put on the steamer, opened the base ingredients, poured them in, and added water.
Soon, the rich aroma of hot pot began to spread in the small wooden house.
"That Lu Ye," Shen Shu suddenly spoke, her eyes sparkling with a hint of anticipation.
"Shall I take care of these ingredients? I can do it."
Your true nature as a foodie is fully exposed, Dr. Shen.
Lu Ye smiled secretly in his heart, but nodded: "Okay, thank you for your help, Doctor Shen."
"It's not hard, not hard!" Shen Shu immediately became energetic, picked up the simple knives and chopping board that Lu Ye had brought out next to her, and began to process the vegetables and meat rolls in an orderly manner.
Her movements were very skillful, and it was obvious that she cooked a lot, or at least, ate hot pot a lot.
Su Baiyue also came over.
"Do you need help?"
"Just take care of the food." Lu Ye waved his hand and took out a few bowls, chopsticks and dipping sauce packets from the box.
"Here, season it yourself."
"Okay!" Su Baiyue was not polite and picked up the dipping sauce to study it.
For a moment, the wooden house was filled with fragrance, the hot pot was bubbling with steam, outside the window was the raging sea and wind, but inside the window, three young people were sitting around the stove, and the atmosphere was strangely harmonious and warm.
