Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 304: Lantern Festival
The guests left.

Ringo looked at the farmer doll on the chair and waved his tentacles: "Sir, this is important treasure information we have. If we tell them directly, I'm worried..."

"He went secretly alone?"

"Sir, since Zhou Yi was able to salvage the "Sea Crossbow" right under the noses of the Shuanghe region before, this may not be impossible. We must be on guard."

"rational."

The puppet's movable jaw slid up and down: "If Zhou Yi bypasses me and attacks the assassin, it will show how much more power he has."

"But he won't do that."

"Currently, the Wasteland Development Company... or rather, the entire Development Alliance has been sanctioned by the Mechanical and Electrical City Cluster. He needs to find a way out of this tight blockade. Creating more enemies and further exacerbating regional confrontation is not what he wants to see."

The puppet paused and said, "Failure is always inevitable. The most important thing is to live in the present moment. We need to recognize who can be a friend and who is an enemy at the moment. In this regard, Zhou Yi and I are the same."

"Last winter, he and I were enemies, but now we can be friends with common interests. Only by making good use of each cycle of a relationship can we find opportunities in changing circumstances."

"Zhou Yi will agree, because he also needs to change."

Ringo's eyes revealed a look of sudden enlightenment, and he gestured with his tentacles and sighed: "Your Excellency is truly far-sighted and sees through the essence."

“Do you know what your biggest problem is?”

The puppet suddenly said.

"I am stupid, please remind me."

"The acting is terrible."

The puppet's eyes showed a trace of contempt: "Your crude pretending to be stupid and exaggerated flattery would be very enjoyable if you didn't use your brain. Unfortunately, I am a professional in acting, and it is difficult for me not to act out of character."

Ringo bowed his head and said, "I'm so sorry for distracting you."

"Do you know where your weakness is?"

The puppet stood up, gestured with his hands and said, "When you enter the flattery mode, you often add body language involuntarily, as if it is a way to cover up your instinct, or to strengthen your emotional output. It is too much of a performance."

"Watch more of the two mountain dogs behind you. They flatter me in a very lifelike way. Sometimes I can't tell whether they are doing it on purpose or sincerely. At least in the field of performance, they are really natural."

"In the future, I will study hard and improve myself."

Ringo said seriously.

……

Outside Harvest City.

In room 3101 of Emerald City.

Zhou Yi told Yuanxiao about the proposal to drown Gong.

"This involves high-risk combat in the Dead Sea, and your opinion is crucial."

"I am willing to fight."

Speaking of fighting, her red eyes suddenly sparkled: "Hunting and fighting, these are the areas I have honed my skills in for many years."

What Zhou Yi is more worried about is.

The key to the strategy against the Sashimi Man is to tell the Angel of Death to explode with him.

"Can you bear it?"

"can."

Yuan Xiao showed a look of reminiscence: "There are rumors about sashimi people in the ocean. This is a very rare and special monster, born with A-level strength. I didn't expect it to exist here too."

"Although I have never dealt with it directly, my mother, the previous generation of angel of death who gave birth to me, once encountered it while hunting."

The sashimi man is more like a walking disaster. Wherever it swims, life there will suffer, and it will constrain the creatures to become slow-moving creatures, and their lives will continue to decline.

The only good thing is that it will not actively attack other lives.

"Mother followed it all the way and collected a lot of information about it."

"For example, the Sashimi Man will attract some social light-like species to move around him, because the Sashimi Man is a natural umbrella that can deter enemies."

"Another thing is that it doesn't communicate with the outside world, nor does it use tools. It just swims around as it pleases, just like the simplest life forms."

Yuanxiao said: "My mother didn't take action in the end, but another group of people attacked the sashimi man."

"Those were two Skywalkers. They approached the Sashimi despite having festering wounds all over their bodies, touched it, and obtained a treasure. Mother was too far away to see clearly what it was."

"After the activation, the strength of the Sashimi Man skyrocketed, and he directly entered the Light Core Body stage. He melted a Skywalker into ashes, and only the one who got the treasure survived."

"So my mother believed that only those who obtained the treasure from the sashimi man could survive. They had to fight him, and there was no shortcut. Others would not be recognized and would be destroyed and attacked."

“But by this stage, it will also disappear quickly.”

Her words gave Zhou Yi a preliminary understanding of the sashimi man.

"My mother never got over the fact that she had withdrawn from the hunt. In subsequent ocean hunts, she always hoped to meet the sashimi man again and fight him. But she never met one again until she died."

"If you miss some things, you may never have the chance to do it again in this lifetime."

Yuan Xiao said seriously: "Please believe me, I can do it this time."

Zhou Yi thought about it and found no reason to refuse.

However, he still proposed: "When the time comes, I will cooperate with you to attack the assassin. Everything must be based on safety. If things are impossible, evacuate."

"Please rest assured, I understand." Zhou Yi immediately contacted Mieding Gong.

"agree."

"Then there is no time to lose. We can start preparing now. The locust plague is a good opportunity. I can take action at any time. It's up to you."

Zhou Yi made a prompt decision: "Let's go now."

Originally, it was possible to summon a focusing body.

However, considering the characteristics of the sashimi man, only the member who got the treasure survived from the previous two-person team.

As a result, the mechanism of the sashimi man encourages single combat, or only recognizes the final treasure winner.

It is safer for the Angel of Death to hunt alone.

……

Under the guidance of Ringo, Zhou Yi and Yuan Xiao boarded a small speedboat. In addition to them, there was also the farmer puppet-shaped Mieding Gong on the boat.

Zhou Yi was a little surprised: "Can your current body drive away those light squids?"

"Don't worry."

Mr. Mieding said: "They are the main force to deal with the light squid."

It pointed to the deck behind.

The entire ship, except for Zhou Yi, Yuanxiao and Ringo, was filled with neatly arranged puppets on the deck, like an army ready to march out at any time.

Zhou Yi observed through [Alertness] and found that the puppets were all D-level. Although they were strong, it was too difficult for them to deal with groups of B-level life forms.

"The light squids are phototactic. They will approach places with strong death lights. This is an instinct that is hard to resist. Although they have a high perception shielding ability, we don't need to confront them head-on. We just need to lead them away."

Mieding Gong explained: "I have modified the puppets here. They can emit powerful death light. I will control them to lead the light squids away and disperse them, making it difficult for them to gather again in a short period of time. This is enough time and space to drive away the sashimi man."

During the previous War of Honor, Lord Mie Ding’s puppet suicide army was extremely difficult to deal with.

Now let Zhou Yi further confirm that it is very good at micro-manipulating a large number of puppets and can also transform these puppets.

In other words, Miedinggong's ability is that he can form an army by himself.

The ship was traveling at an extremely high speed and reached the destination sea area in just half a day.

The whole ship plunged into the Dead Sea like a fish.

The altitude continues to decrease.

You can see that there is a huge canyon on the seabed, as if there is a crack on the seabed, and it is extremely deep.

Continue to sink.

Reaching solid bottom.

Zhou Yi sensed that there was indeed high pressure here.

Glowing bands began to appear in front.

That is the light emitted by the tentacles of the light squid.

He had heard of this creature before. It belonged to the same level as the gray whale. It was much weaker as a single individual, but was more flexible and lived in groups.

"I'll lead them away first."

Miedinggong gave an order.

The puppet army on the ship began to disembark and divided into many small teams. They emitted light, like moving light bulbs.

Soon, two light squids were attracted over. They ate one or two puppets and then began the chase and hunting.

Miedinggong continued his operation, constantly dispersing, pulling and tugging at this group of B-level creatures.

Thousands of puppets on the ships became bait and navigators.

It took it just over an hour to pull the squids apart. The smaller the group, the weaker the squids' sense of coordination. These monsters soon went their own way, scattered, and set free to chase the puppets.

On a cliff behind the school of squids stood a vague shadow.

From Zhou Yi's alert perspective, he saw that the huge creature was emitting purple light all over its body.

A-level monster, Sashimi Man.

"Next, I'll depend on you."

Miedinggong looked over.

Zhou Yi told the young assistant next to him: "Go ahead, and be careful."

"clear."

The angel of death flies towards the enemy.

soon.

The wooden head of the Destroyer suddenly turned slowly, and a pair of emotionless colorful eyes looked at Zhou Yi: "You are the only one left now. If this is a death trap I designed specifically for you, what would you do?"

Zhou Yi said calmly: "You can give it a try."
