She kept stamping her feet, her eyes glazed over: "Hai Ming... slow down, slow down... the rocks hurt... it hurts... don't go too fast, I'll faint from the pain!"
Unlike the other ship girls with their resolute personalities, Ghost always speaks her mind.
Haiyi subconsciously reduced the boat's speed.
We can forgo the championship, but we must never let [Ghost] suffer.
He looked straight ahead, and Zheng Hao and Don Quixote also slowed down.
In the past, most of the navigators who managed to reach this mountainous area, who rushed forward with all their might, ended up tragically drowning at sea.
No one, no one can be lucky enough to avoid all the sharp rocks!
His azure pupils shimmered with light as Haiyi used his [Eye of Foresight] for the last time.
Is there any chance...?
This is our last chance!
"I must...I must try again!"
"The future! The future!!!"
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
Two images flashed through my mind.
The first image shows Zhou Zhong activating [Distant Mountain Domain]. Hai Yi and Zhou Zhong have finally surpassed Zheng Hao and the others, and a smile has just appeared on Hai Yi's face... but the next moment!
He saw the second image again because of the "1S" reward screen from the last "check-in" session!
In a daze.
He witnessed a scene that resembled "a chaotic dance of demons" or "the Eight Immortals crossing the sea"!
There are scenes of the old man, Hai Wuliang, recklessly charging forward on a spring-loaded device; scenes of countless mirrors reflecting the shimmering image of the boat girls; boat girls flying in mid-air; golden boat girls; golden rain; and a cloud of mist...
This is footage of them crossing the finish line!
In the fleeting glimpse of the finish line...
Neither I nor Zhou Zhong showed up!
"Holy crap!"
"What...what was that just now?!"
Haiyi was completely dumbfounded.
no?
Was the moment of victory that intense?
Everyone's been hiding a lot of cards, haven't they?
"Hello!"
"Hello?! Haiyi?! Haiyi!"
Suddenly!
Zhou Zhong shouted from the front, and Hai Yi finally snapped out of his daze from the [Eye of Foresight]: "Huh? W-what happened?!"
"I'm ready..."
"At the first right-angle bend in the [Mountain Area], I will activate [Distant Mountain Domain] to target Zheng Hao and Don Quixote. Let's seize first place immediately!"
"Well..."
"How about we wait?"
"Huh? Wait? What are you waiting for?!"
"Shall we try again at the last right-angle bend?"
"Oh? You're planning to launch a surprise attack before the finish line?"
"I see!"
The Dark Night, which had been bobbing and colliding with the speed of the ship, suddenly slowed down and steadily caught up with the Demon. Hai Yi's lips twitched; he didn't dare to explain anything.
They weren't even in the final crossing-the-finish footage!
The reason for this action was to change the course of future plans and see if overtaking the previous team would give them a chance to vie for the championship.
"Rat-a-tat-tat~"
The rugged mountain track should have been the most competitive area.
Can...
Because the Dark Night Ship had not made any move, the square area of sea was unexpectedly calm at this moment.
The [Spring] also appeared, following in the third column.
Its entire body was taut, maintaining a certain speed, and it didn't rush to overtake the ship.
When the race reached the last right-angle bend in the mountainous area, and all that remained in front of you was a straight "rocky road" with the finish line right in front of you, a loud "putt-putt-putt" sound of intense propeller speed rang out!
The previously hidden [Mirage] and [Icestorm] ships have also appeared!
A straight line!
The moment when six boats turned right at the top of the "rocky road" just 3,000 meters from the finish line!
"Zheng Hao..."
"They haven't overtaken the boat yet..."
"We're maintaining a slow, parallel run, unleashing [Drift Fire Wall], are we about to win the championship?"
Don Quixote's faintly excited voice came over, but Zheng Hao frowned!
"wrong..."
"The most intense moment is about to begin!"
Everyone was holding their breath, waiting... for this final kick!
"【King of the Far Mountains' Secret Technique - Modified - Far Mountains Domain】!!!"
"Boom!"
Almost immediately after the straight bend, a dull thud rang out!
The previously silent and dormant [Dark Night] suddenly swayed and disappeared into the jagged rocks!
"Puff puff puff—"
The next moment!
On the sea surface where Zheng Hao was traveling, countless reef pillars rose up, like a stone forest, standing tall from the seabed, like pillars blocking the sea in front of him.
"Clang clang clang~"
and!
That's not all!
Countless rock pillars emerged from around the hull, like a cage, encircling the two ships side by side.
"Knock knock knock~"
Once the ship started moving, it collided head-on with these protruding stone pillars, and its speed decreased dramatically!
"Knock knock knock—"
The sound of rocks crashing against each other continued, and Don Quixote's face darkened: "This...this is...this is the famous technique 'Distant Mountain Domain' of the [Distant Mountain King] from back then?!"
"Didn't he use the [Magnetic] to control other ships and crash them into the reefs back then?"
"This...this is a completely modified version of the [Distant Mountain Domain]?!"
"Bang!"
As the Devil crashed into the reef in front of it, Zheng Hao was shocked to find that the rocks standing around the ship fell into the water with a series of "plop" sounds!
Those bound reefs did not grow out of the sea!
But!
It was as if she had been severed from underwater and thrown onto the surface, rising for only a moment to envelop the moving [ship girl]!
