In front of the big screen in Dragon Kingdom, the vast majority of the audience were confused.
Without his teammates, this chosen one is really too lazy to talk.
Only by relying on the constant explanations of the expert team and some passers-by can the audience understand one or two things.
When the audience still didn’t know why Zhang Yangqing took off the anklet of his colleague’s corpse.
Zhang Yangqing put on his anklet and jumped into the sea.
A magical scene occurred. After putting on the anklet, his swimming speed was more than four times as fast as before.
You must know that the salvage workers played by the chosen ones can swim faster in the water than ordinary people. This is the passive ability of the salvage workers.
But it is far inferior to the fish in the deep sea.
When Zhang Yangqing puts on this anklet, it's like there are two pushers on his legs.
The swimming speed of ordinary fish cannot match Zhang Yangqing's speed.
The moment he swam out of the water, Zhang Yangqing knew that the two things on his legs were definitely at the level of 'artifacts'.
It is useless on land, but it has great effect in the sea.
But nothing is perfect. This thing also has a shortcoming, that is, it consumes a lot of physical energy when activated.
People who are not physically strong enough may be exhausted before long.
This may also be the main reason why the Kaitan World will transform the bodies of the chosen ones.
Extraordinary people may complain about being weakened, but the principle of the Kaitan world is to allow ordinary chosen people to survive.
This is why many Chosen Ones emphasize when teaching newcomers that if they want to survive in the world of ghost stories, they should judge from the perspective of ordinary people as much as possible.
There are only a handful of people in Blue Star who can learn from Zhang Yangqing.
“No wonder this colleague dared to catch the mermaid, and I can also understand why he was able to run away when faced with the attack of sea monsters. If he had not been betrayed by his teammates, and if there was no such wound on his shoulder, he might still be able to escape. I can really survive.”
Zhang Yangqing analyzed it internally for a while.
The world of weird stories is like this. Sometimes it’s not that you are incompetent, but if your teammates forcefully sell you, no one will survive.
Zhang Yangqing could even feel the despair of this colleague when he was exhausted.
"We are colleagues. Please do me a favor and bury him."
Zhang Yangqing also expressed his gratitude to this colleague after receiving such a prop.
Letting his body not be exposed on the beach after death, nor be eaten by fish, is a kind of respect for the deceased by the people of the Dragon Kingdom.
Including Zhang Yangqing, there were five people here. They quickly dug a hole in the nearby land and buried the dead salvage worker.
When he returned to the salvage boat, the bearded man felt a little pity. It would have been great if the salvage worker had not died.
This will give Zhang Yangqing a big help.
Zhang Yangqing doesn’t think so. It would be best if the salvage worker died.
Here, Zhang Yangqing did not curse him to death, nor did he mean to disrespect the deceased, but simply analyzed the pros and cons.
If the salvage worker does not die, he will not be able to obtain the treasure that accelerates underwater.
According to other intelligence, this salvage worker has some skills, but is very greedy.
And he has been betrayed by his teammates, so he probably doesn’t trust his teammates in his heart.
He went into the water with Zhang Yangqing, and it was good that he didn't encounter any problems. If he encountered danger, he would definitely sell Zhang Yangqing.
The most important thing is that Zhang Yangqing can't match him due to his speed, so the outcome can be imagined.
Based on these conjectures, Zhang Yangqing still felt that it would be better for him to die.
But again, Zhang Yangqing only thought in his heart and expressed regret with his mouth.
Otherwise these aborigines would think he was very cold-blooded.
Next, Zhang Yangqing began to analyze whether he should catch a mermaid or not.
If you catch a mermaid, the outcome is likely to be that the mid-level salvage ship will be attacked by powerful overlord-level sea beasts and sea tribes. The result must be very tragic. It would be good if it could be like the broken salvage ship that returned to port. If it was directly sunk to the bottom, it would be a big trouble.
Zhang Yangqing actually has a special way of thinking, which is the theory of indirect causation.
The head of the Yarna region caught the mermaid, causing the entire Yarna region to sink to the bottom of the sea.
A fellow salvage worker was preparing to catch a mermaid, but he died and the salvage boat was damaged.
I released the mermaid yesterday and nothing happened.
Zhang Yangqing felt that the mermaid might be a symbol of disaster, a vicious accumulation of cause and effect.
According to Daomen, it means breaking the balance of heaven.
In this world, humans and sea people do not talk about peaceful coexistence, but they also do not interfere with each other. This is a hidden rule.
If anyone easily destroys the balance of heaven and violates this big rule, disaster is likely to happen.
How could Zhang Yangqing be afraid of this in his heyday? Whether it was in the previous Guitaan or in Blue Star, he was strong enough to withstand the sanctions of cause and effect.
But it's different now. Zhang Yangqing has no strength at all and can only rely on his own judgment.
Then there are many things he needs to consider.
The best way is to negotiate peacefully, which Zhang Yangqing ruled out from the beginning, which is obviously no longer possible.
If you don’t catch the mermaid, how will you know how to control the sea beast?
In fact, Zhang Yangqing has already received a benefit, which is the acceleration anklet.
Many viewers are thinking that Zhang Tianshi must be unwilling to leave at this moment.
Everyone is here, the benefits are nearby, and no one will be happy if they don’t get them.
But Zhang Yangqing’s idea is not that simple. Without the help of his teammates, the next ghost talk will have to face the strange enemy of the Chosen One. Just relying on an escape prop is of no use.
Life is a matter of survival, and there is no way to get out if the mission is not completed.
The mermaid was really easy to talk to yesterday. Maybe she can negotiate with her here.
However, Zhang Yangqing had already let her go. In the vast sea, it would be difficult to encounter her unless a special event was triggered.
And this incident must be related to the 'Dragon Palace' and the 'Four Dragon Kings'.
No one is perfect, and Zhang Yangqing is not omnipotent. He can only guess based on the existing information. Such information will be given later, and he has no way to guess in advance.
Zhang Yangqing doesn't have the unlucky luck to encounter a mermaid in distress nearby.
After thinking again and again, he decided to suspend the second side task as well.
Forcibly salvaging the mermaid is definitely not a good choice, and it is difficult to communicate, so there is no need to waste time here.
The salvage ship heads towards today’s main mission location.
After another hour of sailing, it was now 12:17 in the middle of the night. The night wind began to turn cold, and Zhang Yangqing was the last to arrive at the mission point.
As soon as he arrived in this area, Zhang Yangqing felt ‘familiar’.
A sea area shrouded in thick black air quietly appeared before everyone's eyes.
The sea surface was no longer calm, as if being stirred by invisible forces, ripples appeared, and the black air shuttled between the waves like a living creature, making a low and strange whimper.
It's like there is some weird creature hiding in it.
As the ship slowly approached the cursed sea, an unspeakable fear began to spread in the hearts of the crew.
They looked at each other, uneasiness and fear flashing in their eyes.
This is an area where even luxury cruise ships have sunk. Can my mid-level salvage ship withstand it?
When the ship finally stopped in this sea area, the silence around it was broken by a sudden slight collision.
The sound was just around the salvage ship, as if something was hitting the salvage ship, which made people's hair crawl.
The crew members looked at each other, and their uneasiness reached its peak in an instant.
