On this trip, their team leader is Long Xunhai and the deputy team leader is Lei Xiangqian.
The destination of this trip is the South China Sea Islands, and their opponents are various mages and psychics from Southeast Asian countries.
"...especially the Yin-Yang masters and sorcerers from the island nation and the Sava nation."
"How come the sorcerers are involved? Their battlefield should be more suitable on land." A Miao master frowned.
Long Xunhai said with a serious expression, "According to the intelligence we've received, they were instigated by the US Empire and the EU, and invited by the Yin-Yang masters of the island nation to first set up formations along our South China Sea to attract typhoons. They then jointly refined a batch of ghost insects.
These ghost insects can possess any sea creature and reproduce rapidly over large areas. Their actions are intended to destroy the ecosystem of my country's South China Sea.
Furthermore, we suspect they might be planning to use the upcoming typhoons to allow sea creatures infected with the Gu worm to enter the coastal waters. As long as fishermen are fishing, a large number of our people will be infected by the ghost worms."
☆
Bang! Someone couldn't help but slam the table.
“How abominable!”
“It’s so vicious!”
"These Yin-Yang masters and sorcerers are doing things that are against the harmony of nature. Aren't they afraid of retribution?"
"Master, what is a sorcerer? They are ruthless people who use people to make poisonous insects."
"That's right. If you want to make someone like this afraid, you have to let the gods really send down the Nine Heavens Thunder."
"Director Long, if they have already released a large number of ghost insects into the seabed, it will be difficult for us to intercept them!" someone said.
Many people agreed with this statement. After all, the ocean was so vast that even gods would have a hard time finding fish infested by ghost worms once they entered the sea.
☆
Long Xunhai surveyed the hundred-plus people at the scene and said sternly, "This mission is daunting. We can only do our best. Originally, we weren't prepared for such a large-scale operation. But we've received information that Onmyojis from the Island Nation and sorcerers from the Savar Nation have been stationed in Palawan and southeast of the Toe Nation." He gestured for his team to bring over nautical charts. "These areas are also infested with Onmyojis, sorcerers, and psychics. It's said that Southeast Asia's greatest ghost king is also involved in this operation."
Everyone looked at each other. It seemed that the name of this Ghost King had become a household name.
"Are you all scared?" Lei Xiangqian said with a half-smile.
An old Taoist priest said, "Director Lei, you're joking. As Chinese, even if it means death, we will never allow such thieves to harm our people and destroy our country."
"Amitabha!"
"..." Xiao Yu slowly gnawed on the large bone in the pork bone soup, the only meat dish of the night. He felt that ever since Long Xunhai mentioned the Ghost King, the morale of these people had been visibly low.
If the boat hasn't departed yet, someone will definitely jump off the boat.
Unfortunately, from the time the warship set sail, to the time they gathered, to the time they finished their meal, it was already 6:40. Given the speed of the warship, even a strong swimmer would not be able to swim back.
☆
"Everyone, please be patient." A hint of fatigue crossed Long Xunhai's brows. "We've already made arrangements for this operation and will do our utmost to protect everyone's safety. I just hope that everyone will do their best when the time comes."
How humble! Xiao Yu stopped eating meat and looked at Long Xunhai. If it was Mr. Zhou standing there at this moment, as long as he released his momentum, no one below would back down.
Or, when faced with a difficult problem, Mr. Zhou would take the lead and solve the major problems right away.
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Yan noticed that Xiao Yu was a little distracted, and frowned unconsciously. Seeing that there was no meat on the big bone in his hand, he picked up another one with chopsticks.
When Xiao Yu saw the meat bone that was exchanged in his hand, he unconsciously transmitted the message in a low voice, "I miss you."
Zhou Yan looked at the pair of eyes looking at him, which were full of love and fascination, but he knew that this boy should not be thinking about him at the moment.
Zhou Yan once again became curious about his original self.
"If it were me, what would I do?"
Xiao Yu had just taken a large bite of meat and didn't think much of what he said. "If it were Mr. Zhou, he would just release his contracted beast, the Golden Crow, and fly it around the sea. Those ghost insects would be dead."
“…”
"Or your flaming sun power can also burn to death everything with evil spirits on a large scale."
Zhou Yan: It turns out that the power of the scorching sun can be used in this way.
"Don't I need to solve the island nation's formation?"
"In the face of absolute power, those are nothing but chickens and dogs."
…

"...This journey is quite long. I'm afraid it will take at least two days to reach our destination. Before that, please rest in your rooms and prepare yourself. Or you can go to the deck and watch our naval officers and soldiers train." Long Xunhai said, "If anyone is seasick, it's best to rest in your rooms."
Xiao Yu noticed that a few people had strange looks in their eyes, as if they were expecting the people on the stage to say something like "If you want to leave, you can withdraw now." Unfortunately, Long Xunhai had "no sense at all" and didn't even look at those people.
After Long Xunhai finished his summary, the people in the restaurant left one after another.
Lei Xiangqian saw Xiao Yu still gnawing on a bone, so he slowly walked over and glanced at their table. He asked in confusion, "I heard there's a lot of seafood tonight, why is there so little on your table?"
Zhou Yan looked at Xiao Yu who was drinking soup: "Xiao Yu, I'm allergic to seafood, so I can only eat a small amount."
Lei Xiangqian looked at Xiao Yu and teased, "Then you're out of luck. Our South China Sea is very rich."
Xiao Yu, despite being defeated, did not lose the battle. He transmitted his message, "I'm not allergic to fried lobster meat, grilled yellow croaker, or grilled squid. I'm not allergic to even a small amount of shrimp. I can also add some garlic oysters and vermicelli scallops..."
