"Thump~"
"Thump~"
When everyone came to their senses, they saw the dark ship already stopped outside the rapids, and they were all speechless, their mouths agape, for a long time...
quick!
That's too fast!
[53] It's the start of the turn!
Even an S-rank ship girl couldn't do that!
[53] The boat, turning, crashes headlong into the waves without dodging or avoiding them. That's the romance of sailing!
"Damn! Young Master Zheng's start is even more impressive than last time!"
"What do you mean by observing the waves before setting sail? Coach, I want to learn that! A real man should just smash through the waves!"
Coach: Get lost, I can't do it either!
"......"
The candidates on the 【Ship Union】 forum were discussing it enthusiastically.
The examiner, timing the stopwatch, stared blankly at the "Devil Ship," already somewhat lost in thought.
He could sense that there were no magical energy fluctuations on the ship, and the ship girl hadn't activated any skills; it was purely a matter of piloting skills!
and!
It's a more effective, more violent, and more entertaining maneuver than Zhou Hang's.
It's people like that who make the most interesting races in the "Black Ship Race".
"The young master of the Zheng family?"
"Alright!"
"Let me see how you're going to open up the Black Reef Zone in 60 seconds without using any [Talents] or [Ship Girl Skills]?"
I watched intently as the [Devil] sailed towards the [Flat Wind Right Angle Zone].
The examiners had already assumed that this subject posed no difficulty for Zheng Hao.
"Rat-a-tat-tat~"
really!
When the Devil Cruiser reached the Tailwind Right Angle Turn, it didn't consciously control its speed from the start!
[53] Share!
It still starts at a terrifying 53 RPM, and when it reaches the right-angle turn, the boat speed approaches 73 RPM, like a runaway bull trying to rush out of the right-angle zone.
"Zheng Hao..."
"You're so fast! So fast~"
"I...I can't take it anymore...I can't take it anymore..."
Inside the captain's cabin, Mo Yurou felt the unprecedented speed, her whole body trembling violently in mid-air. Her vision was blurred, her eyes were turning white, and she subconsciously wrapped her legs around Zheng Hao's waist.
"You can't even handle this speed?"
"What will you do when the speed reaches 100 RPM?"
"Yu Rou, you'll have to get used to my speed!"
*Smack!*
With his right hand slapping Mo Yurou's round, plump buttocks, Zheng Hao pressed the [Anchor] button on the right side and, while holding Mo Yurou's body, desperately tilted her to the left.
And so!
"Puff puff puff~"
Without slowing down, the entire ship of the 【Devil】bends violently inward at an inward angle, almost capsizing!
but...
As the outer anchor was lowered at just the right moment, the ship, at an odd angle, hissed through the white waves and whooshed out of the right-angle bend!
"7.11 seconds!!!"
"Candidate Zheng Hao has passed the [Follow-the-Wind Right Angle Turn] test!"
The examiner calmly kept time with the stopwatch, but his eyes remained fixed on the bend they had just passed.
Perfect!
Just now, at that bend, he perfectly spun out a white dragon!
Damn it!
How can someone take such perfect corners?
"It's...it's [Anchor Drift]!!!"
"Here it comes! Young Master Zheng's unique skill!"
"What's the point of being fast on a straight line? Being fast on curves is what really matters!"
"......"
[Shipping Union] There was a heated discussion recently, and everyone was very excited!
What techniques? What precautions?
Oh shit!
Exploiting speed like a madman – that's the romance of men!
......
"Rat-a-tat-tat~"
On the sea, the waves are still surging.
However, within the [Reef Area], the black water is vast and bottomless.
Nobody knows which rock is down there, or which one offers the best driving angle.
"Thump~"
"Thump~"
Outside the deathly still [Reef Area], the examiner watched the [Devil] slowly approach, his expression shifting uncertainly.
Without using any special talents, Zhou Hang's method sacrificed the ship's speed, so he could only complete the assessment within three minutes.
Can...
Within 60 seconds!
If it has to be without using any abilities, who can do that?
There is certainly enough time to travel at full speed, but even at full speed, does the boat still have a chance to react and avoid hitting the reef?
At that speed, the hull would probably be totaled before it even hits three times, right?
"Zheng Hao..."
"Do you actually have something, or are you just bluffing...?"
"Everything will be revealed here!"
The examiner kept a close eye on the [Devil Ship].
At this moment, even the candidates who had been discussing the matter fell silent.
"I remember Zheng Shao's challenge was to get through the [reef area] in 60 seconds, right?"
"Are you crazy?! In 60 seconds, even if you weren't in the reef area, I might not be able to make it safely in my boat!"
"Hiss... what method should we use?"
"......"
Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, in the captain's cabin, Mo Yurou looked curiously at Zheng Hao, "Zheng Hao... what you said before about reducing the contact area between the hull and the sea surface..."
"In that kind of configuration, if you rely on tilting the ship to reduce the contact between the hull and the seabed by pressing water with the sides... you still need to give the hull a point of leverage before you can start tilting the ship, right?"
"We can't possibly force the boat to capsize, can we?"
