His deep gaze followed the figures dancing on the ice, his thoughts churning.
It had never seen such a novel sight before, and its curiosity about the deep-sea human race grew stronger.
"Let's go back. You'll have plenty of time to get involved yourself later."
Gu Xi's voice pulled You Yin back from her reverie.
The two turned around and retraced their steps.
Back outside the main building, Gu Xi invited You Yin to the power bay.
Inside the control and power compartment, the power core gleamed.
Gu Xi walked to the power core and activated the control panel.
Are you ready?
She turned around and looked at You Yin.
Youyin was somewhat puzzled, but still agreed, its heart filled with curiosity. It wanted to know what other surprises awaited it on this ship.
Gu Xi took a deep breath and pushed the control lever sharply.
"Buzz—"
The Future shuddered slightly and began to accelerate.
Although You Yin was floating, she felt a powerful push against her back, and her body involuntarily leaned backward.
It quickly steadied itself and looked out through the porthole.
The surrounding scenery rushed past, transforming into streaks of light as the Future sped faster and faster...
Youyin's heart pounded wildly; it had never experienced such incredible speed. It felt like being in the eye of a storm, with everything around it spinning rapidly.
The light emanating from Youyin suddenly contracted, its sculpted eyes fixed on the scenery rushing past the window, its face turning deathly pale.
This speed far exceeded its comprehension. Even more terrifying was that, despite such high speed, the Future remained as stable as if it were on flat ground.
"What... what kind of power is this?" Youyin's voice trembled slightly.
Gu Xi smiled mysteriously at You Yin and uttered a few words: "Abyss Crystal".
Youyin's eyes widened instantly, and it turned its head sharply to look at Gu Xi, its eyes filled with disbelief.
"Abyssal crystals? You use abyssal crystals as power?!"
Its mental energy sharpened in an instant, and its voice became shrill due to extreme shock.
Abyssal crystals are one of the most precious sources of energy in the deep sea.
Each one is priceless; even fragments can fetch high prices at auctions. And Gu Xi is using them as a power source?!
This is simply...
What a waste!
You Yin felt that her worldview had been severely impacted.
It couldn't understand why Gu Xi would do something so crazy.
Shock, indescribable shock.
Youyin felt her mind go blank, completely losing the ability to think.
It floated there blankly, like a stone sculpture.
Gu Xi's smile deepened as he looked at You Yin's distraught appearance.
The Future gradually slowed down and eventually came to a stop.
Youyin finally came to its senses and looked at Gu Xi with a complicated expression.
"Miss Gu, you, you really are a madwoman," it said with a wry smile.
“Wait, I have something else.” Gu Xi didn’t answer You Yin’s question, but suddenly said.
You Yin was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was going on. She was about to continue demonstrating the Future's defensive capabilities.
"Defense capabilities?" Youyin murmured to itself. Having witnessed the speed it had just achieved, it was now even more curious about the Future's defensive capabilities.
Gu Xi smiled slightly, summoned Yan Lin with her mental power, and then turned and walked out of the engine room. You Yin followed closely behind, and the two went to the deck.
"Flame Scale, let's begin," Gu Xi commanded using his mental power.
