The next day.
Early in the morning, everyone was busy, with Captain Wen Guosheng and two assistants adjusting the equipment.
Qingli said from the side, "Remember to tell me immediately if any parts are damaged."
While checking, Wen Guosheng replied, "Okay, Captain."
A lot of water had entered the ship last night. Chen Zui was shoveling water with a shovel and a bucket, while he looked at the whale-sea monster that was still fast asleep on the small table next to him.
I nudged it a few times: "It's dawn, get up quickly."
The whale-sea monster, disturbed from its sleep, had just woken up and was somewhat displeased: "What's all the noise about? I was having a dream."
Chen Zui paused in his shoveling motion, pointing to the seawater and scattered debris on the ground: "Look, this is all your masterpiece from last night, and you were still sleeping soundly."
The Jinghai monster jumped up and looked around. Seeing so much water, it said, "Let me help you get all the seawater out."
After saying that, it went outside, opened its mouth, and took a deep breath, instantly filling the entire ship with a powerful suction force.
They all converged in his direction. Its attraction was quite interesting; it only worked on seawater, while other things remained almost completely unaffected.
As its cheeks gradually swelled up, it sucked all the seawater from the boat into its belly.
Then he turned around and jumped into the sea, spitting it out with a splash.
It absorbed the entire ship's worth of seawater and expelled it back into the sea.
Looking at the dry buckets and shovels, and the ground on the boat, and witnessing its erratic behavior, Chen Zui felt for some reason that the sea was somewhat dirty.
The whale-like sea monster leaped in front of him, its small forelimbs supporting its hips: "How's it going? Got it?!"
He looked like he was taking credit for something.
Chen Zui's eyes crinkled into a smile as he gave a thumbs-up and said, "Amazing."
The whale-sea monster squirmed slightly at his praise, then straightened up: "Oh dear, this is just basic practice for our race."
Chen Zui asked, "What's your name?"
The whale-sea monster tilted its chubby head and said, "I don't think I have a name. My mother said I haven't grown up yet, so she hasn't given me a name. She's always called me Xiao Bao."
Upon hearing this name, Chen Zui involuntarily recalled the enormous creature he had seen last night...
Chen Zui nodded: "Then I'll call you Xiao Bao from now on."
The whale-sea monster hesitated for a moment, "This is what my mother called me, why don't you call me something else?"
Chen Zui asked in surprise, "Huh? What do your other clansmen call you?"
The whale-sea monster tilted its head and thought for a while, then shook its head: "I don't remember. It never called me that, it always called me Mother."
Chen Zui, resting his chin on his hand, paced back and forth: "Will it have any impact if I name you?"
The whale-sea monster is fairly certain: "It won't have much of an impact, just like you humans."
Chen Zui clenched his right fist and slapped it against his left palm: "Let me give you a nickname. You can choose your formal name after you meet your parents."
The whale-like sea monster leaped up: "Great! Great!"
Chen thought for a while, then tentatively said, "You said you're a whale siren, so how about we call you Little Whale?"
He wasn't very good at naming things, so he just called it this way because it was convenient and quick.
Upon hearing the name, the whale-sea monster jumped up excitedly: "Great! This sounds nice. Little Whale, I'll be called Little Whale from now on!"
It jumped really high, even hopping all the way up to the plank to find Ye Shang, bouncing around in front of her: "Little Whale, my name is Little Whale."
Ye Shang looked speechlessly at the monster that was jumping around so desperately, and slapped it to the ground. "Stop jumping so high in front of me."
The little whale, looking sad, maintained the pose of being photographed: "I just came to share my name with you."
Ye Shang rested his chin on his hand, looking nonchalant: "I know, hurry up and get to work."
Little Whale turned its chubby face and looked at Ye Shang in disbelief: "I just finished working."
Didn't it just clean all the seawater off the ship?
Ye Shang glanced at it: "There's other work to do. You can only rest after you finish it."
The little whale got up with a frustrated look on its face. It's true what they say, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
At this moment, it was unaware of the term "exploiting capitalist".
If it knew, it would definitely pin the blame on Ye Shang right now.
As Ye Shang watched its small figure slowly depart, it exuded a melancholy aura. Under the scorching sunlight, its shadow gradually lengthened, making the atmosphere even more poignant.
Meng Qiulan, standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It's hilarious, that desolate back view."
Ye Shang sneered: "If we hadn't scared it off last night, everyone on the ship would have been its prey. At that time, this kind of monster wouldn't have any mercy."
For them, anything weaker than themselves is food, so the Demon King once commented that they are a type of omnivorous demon beast.
I eat everything, regardless of whether it's meat or vegetables.
Meng Qiulan shivered. "It's alright."
Fortunately, they were scared by Ye Shang's beating, otherwise, after defeating that giant monster, their entire ship would have been no match for them.
Ye Shang rested his chin on his hand, looking at the calm surface of the sea. There were many things to do when he returned.
On the ship, she was generally responsible for safety and combat, while Han Yi was in charge of other miscellaneous matters. If he couldn't make a decision, Qing Li would handle it.
In short, she protected the ship the whole time, and even so, everyone thought she was working hard.
She's the one who always handles any situation that arises. The other people on their ship sometimes go too, but they're basically never really needed to help.
On two occasions, Qingli suggested giving them a chance to improve. Although they ultimately won those two matches, it's undeniable that their wounds were much more severe.
Treating those with superpowers almost depleted their own abilities.
After discussing it for a while, the two decided to let the superhumans go first, and if they couldn't defeat them, Ye Shang would then take over.
From initially standing behind her, Qingli remained on the boat almost entirely, maintaining order.
In this way, people with superpowers can come up with their own moves and ways of dealing with various monsters.
Everyone understood the two captains' good intentions and had no objections.
You should know that this kind of training method is almost never seen again.
With extreme destructive power, it unleashes one's potential without worrying about life.
This is simply the most remarkable gain from this trip.
Unless they encounter a situation like last night where humans have almost no ability to resist, Ye Shang will not order them to retreat and guard the area.
In that situation, even if all the superhumans attacked, they would not escape the jaws of the whale-sea monster.
Not to mention that at the beginning, the superpowered individuals all used their offensive abilities, yet the monster didn't even notice when they tickled it.
Ye Shang realized this, which is why he called them all back and rearranged the work of protecting the ship.
