Lu Ye touched his chin, a gleam in his eyes.
He opened the system panel, switched to the public channel, and began tapping quickly on the virtual keyboard.
Soon, a message appeared in the chaotic public channel, standing out.
[Public Channel Bounty: I'm Lu Ye. I have ample firepower, sophisticated equipment, a strong ship, and powerful cannons. I specialize in dealing with all kinds of enemies. I'm now accepting high-difficulty monster clearing missions. If you encounter any stubborn monsters in the nearby waters, please contact me with the coordinates. Rewards are negotiable, depending on the monster's level and danger level (rare materials, blueprints, or high-energy blocks are preferred). My time is valuable, so first come, first served. Serious buyers only.]
As soon as this news came out, the already noisy public channel instantly exploded!
After a brief silence, countless messages poured into Lu Ye like snowflakes!
"[Boss! Boss, help! Coordinates XXX, YYY, we're stuck in the reef area with three Rot Fangs! The boat can't hold on! There's a rare metal ore!"
"[Brother Lu! This is Xue Cheng, the one I traded with before! I found a lone mutant giant octopus here! I'll send you the coordinates! Looking for a team! Let's split the spoils!]"
"[Help! Help! Thirty miles west, coordinates ZZZ, AAA, we've encountered a juvenile 'Deep Sea Leviathan'! Huge bounty! Any help is needed to drive it away!]"
"[Boss! Look at me! I have fragments of blueprints for shipborne weapon upgrades! Coordinates...]"
Looking at the cooperation information that instantly flooded the screen, Lu Ye's mouth curled up slightly.
"Tsk, business is good." He slid the screen, quickly browsing the information and screening targets.
"Let's take this one. It's not far away and sounds more durable."
He selected a distress signal from twenty nautical miles to the southeast. The other party claimed that they were besieged by a group of extremely fast and hard-shelled "blade crabs" and their ship was seriously damaged. They were willing to use a "power core enhancement blueprint" as a reward.
Blade Crab? Judging from the name, it should have good defense. It's a good time to test the power of the shells.
The drawings also come in handy.
"Xiaobai, Yiyi, get ready to work."
Lu Ye closed the public channel and raised his chin towards Su Baiyue and Xiao Yiyi who were not far away.
"Chen Shu, set the course, target southeast, twenty nautical miles."
"receive!"
"clear!"
"good."
The fishing boat's engine roared again, and it adjusted its direction, breaking through the waves towards its new target.
At this moment, on his alien express delivery system panel, the number representing hope and the unknown quietly jumped: [Special express delivery receipt progress: 53/100].
We are one step closer to the next system level upgrade and the unknown generous rewards.
The fishing boat adjusted its course, its engine emitting a low and powerful roar, plowing a white trail and speeding towards the southeast.
The target is a group of "blade crabs" twenty nautical miles away.
Twenty nautical miles won’t take too long at full speed.
Just in time to clean up the inventory.
Lu Ye was thinking in his mind, then turned and walked towards a few inconspicuous packages piled up in a corner of the cabin, which were marked with the special markings of the alien express delivery system.
These are all "inventories" that have accumulated before and have not been processed yet.
He casually opened the first package, and the contents inside made him raise his eyebrows slightly.
A huge object whose volume has been compressed to the limit, but whose outline can still be seen.
[Item: Giant Hot Air Balloon (Foldable Portable Version)]
[Description: Made of special, high-toughness, tear-resistant material, it can carry a small vehicle or a dozen people into the air when fully deployed. It comes with a simple control cable and requires fuel for use.]
[Item: High-efficiency fuel cell (half-ton package)]
Description: High energy density fuel that provides long-term, stable power for hot air balloons or other compatible devices. Note: Energy output is stable, but ignition should be done with caution.
Hot air balloons? That's kind of interesting out at sea.
Emergency take-off to avoid, or... high-altitude reconnaissance?
Fuel is a good thing, half a ton is enough to burn for a while.
Lu Ye touched his chin. He hadn't figured out the specific use of the hot air balloon yet, but his intuition told him that this thing might come in handy at a critical moment.
He turned his attention to the second package.
When the package was opened, there was no large object inside, but rows of colorful chemical reagents in special containers. The labels on the bottles and jars were all molecular formulas and codes that Lu Ye could not understand. Next to them was a brief, seemingly half-written recipe.
[Item: High-Energy Reaction Chemical Reagent (Semi-finished Set)]
[Description: Contains a variety of highly active chemical raw materials and catalysts, suitable for the synthesis of a variety of high-energy explosives or special-effect agents. Warning: Some reagents are extremely unstable and require specialized knowledge. Handling is at your own risk. A partial formula is included for your own research.]
Chemical reagents? Semi-finished products? Isn't this just...
Lu Ye's eyes lit up and he immediately thought of Su Baiyue, who had an unusual passion for explosives.
Without hesitation, he pushed the pile of bottles and jars, along with the incomplete formula, in front of Su Baiyue who was wiping the gun barrel.
"Xiaobai, this is a suitable major." Lu Ye pursed his lips.
"These things are now in your hands. See if you can come up with some new tricks, add some extra ingredients to our shells, or come up with some other 'surprises'."
Su Baiyue's eyes, which were originally focused on the gun barrel, suddenly lit up the moment he saw these reagents.
She carefully picked up a reagent bottle and observed the color and state of the liquid inside against the light.
