"These 10 seconds are my chance to win first place in the first leg of the competition..."
Holding the scorching ship at the helm, Zheng Hao dared not be careless in the slightest!
As of now, aside from the [Weather Forecast] character showcasing some ship skills, the other [Ship Girls] haven't learned any skills yet! Anyone... could be the final winner!
......
"oh--"
Look! Look!
"It's player number 8, Zheng Hao! He seems to have used a skill right at the start of the game!"
"It's the [Cloud Dragon Domain]! It's the vision technique that player Zheng Yunlong used before!"
"He overtook the boat! He's in third! He's in third!"
In the speedboat above, Mei Shuzhi spoke with great enthusiasm!
......
At the same time, [Shan Hai Yu · Shan Hai Academy].
The live video of the World Championship was also broadcast in the school's main square.
"Classmates! Did you see that?"
"In this competition, three students from our school overcame numerous difficulties from the [Mountain and Sea Region] and entered the [World Championship]!"
"Among them, do you know who this 'Navigator' who has already climbed to third place is?!"
Du Xingzhou, the homeroom teacher of Class 304, held his head high, looking like a victorious old general, shouting triumphantly.
"I know! The son of the Cloud Dragon King!"
"The eldest son of the Zheng family!"
"I know, it's the first place winner from the [First Sea Gathering]!"
"......"
The students watching were flushed and talking amongst themselves.
Ever since Zheng Hao finished the [Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain] competition, his reputation has exploded throughout the [Mountain and Sea Domain]!
"wrong!"
"wrong!!!"
Still not hearing satisfactory answers from his students, Du Xingzhou slammed his hand on the table: "Him! Zheng Hao! He is the most outstanding and proudest student I, Du Xingzhou, have ever taught!"
"You should all learn from your seniors!"
"As your teacher... I don't expect you to reach Zheng Hao's level, but you can still give it a try, even if it's only half of what he achieved~"
He spoke calmly, and just as the group of students behind him were about to respond, they suddenly tensed up and stopped talking!
"Um?!"
"Speak up!"
"What's your attitude?!"
"Cough cough cough—"
Du Xingzhou urged him on, when suddenly a familiar cough rang out. He turned around, and his face immediately fell!
Principal Cui Mingyuan, accompanied by Yang Kuo, the head of the Yang family, and Zheng Yunlong, the head of the Zheng family, walked over together. Clearly, the three of them had arranged to come and watch the match together...
"Well..."
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Du Xingzhou was at a loss for words.
Fortunately, Yang Kuo smiled and pointed to the [Demon Ship], which was still accelerating, on the big screen, "Patriarch Zheng, it seems your kid has a chance to break into second place!"
"No..."
A fawning voice rang out, but instead of a smile from Zheng Yunlong, he received a solemn expression.
"Zheng Hao..."
"It's very difficult to exceed the [weather forecast]!"
"Huh? Why?"
Yang Kuo was puzzled, but the highly respected Cui Mingyuan smiled helplessly: "You don't understand! The Luke family has an excessive obsession with being number one. They won't even let any ship get ahead of them in a race..."
"This isn't the time for the [Weather Forecast] to lie dormant. I suspect... that guy's ability has already been activated!"
"Huh? Ability?"
"What ability? [Weather]? No... I haven't really seen any changes in the weather..."
Yang Kuo only understood part of what he was hearing, but his gaze toward Cui Mingyuan carried a hint of respect.
The old principal is no ordinary person...
They even know about other families in other sea areas?
"yes..."
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances..."
"Rain... is coming..."
Zheng Yunlong murmured to himself, found a corner, sat down silently, and stared at the projection screen.
Yang Kuo was still completely bewildered.
"rain?"
"What rain? Isn't it raining already?!"
......
"Put-put-put—"
"Put-put-put—"
The temperature inside the Devil Ship rose again over time!
The ship girls who were guarding the 'captain's cabin' watched as Mo Yurou's speed gradually increased!
"good..."
"What an incredible growth rate..."
"That's about the same growth rate as the [Shattered Star] back then, right?"
Rowling pursed her lips, wiping away the sweat.
[Devil's Dance - In Progress]
[Propeller speed: 75 + (7) > 185]
[Bend stability: 70>173]
[Sail Mold Wind Capacity: 73 > 176]
[Hardness: 77 > 180]
[Anchor stability: 70>173]
[Battery range: 70 > 173]
The "50-second" time limit passed in the blink of an eye. After the "Devil's Dance" was activated, it absorbed the values of 4 "SS-class ship girls" and 1 "S-class ship girl", and the value climbed again.
Even without the boost from [overclocking], the [Demon] is no match for any [ship girl].
"And 10 seconds of [overclocking]..."
"This trick can be used as a last resort..."
"Now... let me see what you're really capable of!"
"Boom!"
With a rotation speed of 185, Zheng Hao was finally able to see the stern of the Weather Forecast ship!
Amidst the vast mist, it stands out prominently in the sunlight.
"Surpass her!"
"Surpass her!!!"
Mo Yurou's face gradually began to turn frantic, and the ship continued to move closer to the cabin of the [Weather Forecast]...
And it was at this moment...
From within the strange ship came a hoarse, smoky voice: "Since when... have mortals dared to challenge the gods who control the weather?! The time... has come!!!"
"What?!"
Just when Zheng Hao and Mo Yurou were both confused.
"Thud—"
"Pat-pat-pat—"
Above the gloomy, misty sky, one after another, wriggling frogs... "croak, croak, croak" as they fell from the sky, instantly... covering the hull of the ship in a dense, layered mass!
As I walked forward, all I could see were writhing, trembling frogs, bleeding from falling from the sky!
