"Well..."
Feeling that something was off about the topic, Zheng Hao didn't dare to pay any more attention to Jian Qinghan.
With a loud "boom!"
A flash of cyan sword light erupted, followed by a sudden water explosion. The spiders wriggling on the ship's hull were flung about by the force of the impact, falling into the swamp with a series of "plop" sounds...
A flash of blue light appeared, and countless spiders fell from the sky once more...
"Pfft~"
Before the [Golden Spider] could fall, the [Azure Sword] flashed with azure light, instantly cleaving the spider in two, its body exploding into pieces and falling into the swamp...
"Puff puff puff~"
No boat was seen, only a bluish light appeared, and on the swamp surface of the [Canopy Area] lay countless half-split insect corpses...
......
At the same time.
【First Zone - Smoke Zone】
Haiyi was getting a little impatient looking at the [Smoke Ship], which hadn't moved for a long time.
"Useless..."
"This is the Third Young Master?"
"Such a small setback, and you're already so discouraged?"
Looking at the boats and people bobbing up and down on the water, Zhou Hang completely lost his spirit. He was like a piece of rotten wood, leaning against the side of the boat hole and running aimlessly in the swamp.
Inside the [Smoke Ship], Liu Ruyan stopped cursing and just kept crying and making a fuss.
"It's all your fault! It's all because of you!"
"I wish you hadn't bought me from the Merchant Shipping Alliance in the first place!"
"Being someone else's dog is better than following you!"
"......"
Despite the curses and insults, Zhou Hang remained unmoved.
He's lost his fighting spirit.
He just stared blankly at the water, as if he were possessed.
"Tsk..."
"That won't work..."
"I need to find a way to get them to let me experiment with their hypotheses, to fool them, to give them some hope..."
Haiyi's lips inexplicably curled up, and the Ghost suddenly appeared behind the Smokeship with a "buzzing" sound.
"Holy crap?"
"How...how did I get back?"
"How did I end up behind you?! Am I in last place now?"
Deliberately making exaggerated statements, Haiyi walked out of the captain's cabin and jokingly looked at Zhou Hang: "Hey? Isn't this Third Young Master? Haven't seen you for a few minutes? You've gotten so tired?"
"you!!!"
The mocking words came over, and Zhou Hang immediately reacted!
Without its eyeballs, its deformed, charred face, like a demon, stared intently at Haiyi and... the [ship girl] behind him.
He was thinking...
Can we kill Haiyi and steal his "Boat Girl"?
While lost in thought, Haiyi said to himself, "I never expected... that I had been following the Lin brothers and ended up back here!"
"This [Shaking Spider Forest] actually has a [teleportation point] feature..."
"In that case, Third Young Master, you might still be number one..."
"First?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Hang's silent expression froze!
First?
Am I number one now?
"You! You dare to fool me?!"
Still keeping his head down warily, Zhou Hang regained some composure and slowly explored his surroundings before entering Liu Ruyan's broken boat hole.
To steal the ship, you must first return to the [Smoke Ship].
Believe it or not, it's up to you!
"Anyway... I'm too lazy to say anything more to you. You'll find out yourself after driving a few nautical miles..."
"Buzz buzz buzz~"
As they spoke, Haiyi returned to the Captain's Cabin. The Ghost Ship, after remaining stationary, entered Ghost Stealth mode and vanished from its spot!
Damn it!
"Where are they? Where are they?!"
Suddenly sensing the other party's disappearance, Zhou Hang connected with the Smoke Ship's vision and his face darkened: "This...this guy's [Ship Girl Skill]...is invisibility!?"
"No wonder...no wonder he always looks so confident and fearless!"
He glanced angrily at the empty [Black Mist Zone].
Now, I'm all alone here!
"First..."
"First!"
"If what that guy said is true...maybe I still have a chance!"
"Zhou Hang! You're a piece of trash! You're utterly useless!"
Don't eat sour pineapple!
"Liu Ruyan! Don't you dare bark like a dog!"
A string of curses erupted, and Zhou Hang roared angrily. Liu Ruyan's face immediately darkened: "You...you dare to curse me? You..."
"What do you mean, 'you'?!"
"If you bark again, I'll tear your ship apart!"
With a loud bang, Zhou Hang slammed his foot on the helm, causing Liu Ruyan pain that blurred her vision. She stammered, "You! Zhou Hang...you scumbag! Didn't you promise to treat me well for the rest of your life?!"
"you!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Move! I'll let you move!!!"
Another violent stomping sound rang out. Zhou Hang had completely lost his mind! Love, enlightenment, ideals—all of that had been sidelined. He now only wanted to seize this last chance to become the champion of the [Adventure Race]!
"Hmm..."
"Waaaaah..."
Her eyes were red, but looking at the crazed Zhou Hang, Liu Ruyan didn't dare to resist him at all.
Watching the man roughly stomp on the helm, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
then...
So many men want to get on my deck, I'd better think twice...
What about now?
How did they end up like this!
Let's go!
"Let's go!!!"
