Super Ship: Matchmaking starts with black and white stockings sisters

A fierce storm raged outside the window, as if trying to tear the world apart.

Inside the master bedroom, however, was a warm, dimly lit space.

Qin Yu propped himself up on the headboard with one hand and pressed his back with the other, sweat dripping down his muscles.

He looked up at the digital clock on the wall.

23:59:50.

Ten seconds left.

This round of selection, known as the "Undercurrent Period," is about to end.

Yao Xue had no idea that time was passing.

Qin Yu, however, remained perfectly clear-headed.

He is waiting.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

00: 00.

The fluctuating numbers returned to zero.

The originally deafening roar of wind and rain seemed to be suddenly gripped by an invisible hand.

Stopped abruptly.

That sudden, deathly silence was more unsettling than any roar.

Qin Yu immediately stopped.

He was waiting for the system's notification sound, waiting for that cold, synthesized electronic voice to announce the rules for the next stage, or to activate some new hell mode.

one second.

two seconds.

The whole world was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard.

There was no notification.

There was no announcement.

The system seemed to have crashed, and there was no response at all.

"Why...did it stop?"

Yao Xue opened her hazy eyes a crack, her voice terribly hoarse.

She was referring to Qin Yu.

It also refers to the wind and rain outside.

"it's over."

Qin Yu looked down at Yao Xue, a playful smile curving his lips.

He glanced at the number in the upper right corner of his retina.

The once bright red 33333 has now turned into a bleak gray.

**[Current number of survivors in the area: 1452/33333]**

One thousand four hundred and fifty-two people.

According to the rule of three people per group, this means that there are only 484 groups left.

The mortality rate is over 90%.

This is a massacre.

It's also about cleaning.

The remaining thousand or so people were either incredibly lucky like him, getting powerful items right from the start, or ruthless and vicious characters who climbed over corpses to get ahead.

"No movement?"

Qin Yu raised an eyebrow.

There were no new disaster warnings, and no new missions were issued.

This means that the coming period may be a rare "peaceful period".

This is what is known as the developmental period.

"Qin Yu..."

Yao Xue didn't seem to care about the system at all; she shifted her waist impatiently.

At a time like this, this man is actually daydreaming?

Since the system isn't speaking.

Let's get down to business.

"Focus."

"Didn't you just say you were tired?"

You look very energetic now.

Yao Xue let out a soft moan.

"I...can still manage..."

Since they didn't die in the monster's mouth.

Then I'll die here.

On this desolate sea.

This is the only chance of survival.

……

The next morning.

Sunlight streamed in through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the pure white wool carpet.

The sea was as blue as a giant gemstone.

Calm and undisturbed.

If it weren't for the occasional pieces of wood and bloated corpses floating on the sea, last night's storm would have been a nightmare.

The restaurant was filled with the aroma of rice porridge.

The bok choy grown in the S-grade fertile soil is finely chopped and sprinkled into the thick white porridge, served with two golden-brown fried eggs and a plate of sliced ​​wild boar leg.

This breakfast.

Even in civilized society, it would be considered exquisite; in the apocalypse, it is the epitome of luxury.

Yao Xue, wearing an apron, was setting out the bowls and chopsticks.

She was wearing a white shirt with the hem tied in a knot, revealing her slender waist.

Her hair was casually tied back.

Her face had a rosy glow from being moisturized, her skin was glowing, and she looked both gentle and charming.

That was a charm that the previous icy doctor had never possessed.

"morning."

Qin Yu walked out of the master bedroom, looking refreshed.

He pulled out a chair, sat down, picked up a glass of hot S-grade purified water, and took a sip.

"morning."

Yao Xue placed a bowl of porridge in front of him, her eyes so tender they seemed to be overflowing with affection.

Just then.

"Squeak—"

The door to the second bedroom opened.

Yao Qian floated out like a ghost.

She had huge dark circles under her eyes, her hair was a mess like a bird's nest, and her steps were unsteady, even swaying.

Her pink pajamas were all wrinkled.

He exuded a strong sense of decadence.

"morning……"

His voice was weak and feeble, as if he had just crawled out of a coffin.

"Qianqian?"

Yao Xue was startled and quickly put down the plate she was holding and went over.

"What's wrong? You look terrible."

"Are you sick?"

She reached out and touched Yao Qian's forehead.

As if she had been electrocuted, Yao Qian jerked back and dodged Yao Xue's hand.

His gaze was unfocused.

He didn't dare look Yao Xue in the eye at all.

He dared not look at the obvious dark red hickeys on Yao Xue's neck.

That's evidence of a crime.

That was also the source of her wild thoughts and sleepless night last night.

"No... I'm not sick."

Yao Qian lowered her head, clutching the hem of her clothes, her knuckles turning white.

"It's just... I didn't sleep well."

"Didn't sleep well?"

Yao Xue was somewhat puzzled.

"This room is very soundproof. It was very quiet after the storm stopped last night. Are you having trouble sleeping in this kind of bed?"

Yao Qian's face flushed bright red instantly.

Quiet?

Sister, are you really unaware or are you pretending not to know?

The room is well soundproofed.

But I couldn't resist listening through the door all night!

You're comfortable now.

I suffered terribly.

"Hmm...yes...I had a nightmare."

Yao Qian made up a reason, quickly pulled out a chair, sat down, buried her head in the porridge bowl, and frantically drank the porridge.

It was as if this bowl of porridge was her lifeline.

"Drink slowly, it's hot."

Qin Yu glanced at her, a smile playing on his lips.

He probably guessed what it was.

Even with good soundproofing, it's no wonder Yao Qian, with her age and curiosity, eavesdropped last night.

But he didn't care.

I even found it somewhat interesting.

In this apocalyptic world, ethics and morality will inevitably be broken sooner or later.

It won't do her any harm to adapt sooner.

"Cough cough..."

Yao Qian choked on the porridge and coughed until her face turned red.

She secretly lifted her eyelids and glanced at Qin Yu.

They met Qin Yu's gaze, which held a half-smile.

My heart skipped a beat.

He quickly buried his head again.

It’s over.

Brother Qin Yu must know.

How am I supposed to face people after this?!

"Have a meal."

Qin Yu tapped on the table, breaking the subtle awkwardness.

"You need to be well-fed to have the energy to work."

"Although the period of undercurrents has passed, it doesn't mean we're safe."

He opened the system panel.

While eating a fried egg, I checked the latest data.

**Current number of survivors in the area: 1452**

The number of people has not changed.

It seems that the period after midnight last night was indeed a safe period.

He opened the leaderboard.

His gaze sharpened slightly.

He remains the undisputed number one.

But the data for the second place has changed.

**[Second Place: Li Ruobing]**

**[Raft Level: Small Sailboat (Modified)]**

**[Area: 100 square meters]**

**[Defense Assessment: Tier C (Frost Armor/Steel Spikes)]**

**[Overall Score: 450]**

One hundred square meters.

From 24 square meters yesterday, it has grown to its current size overnight.

Moreover, the defense assessment changed from "none" to "C grade", and even added "Frost Armor".

"That's interesting."

Qin Yu put down his chopsticks and stroked his chin.

An expansion of 100 square meters requires a considerable amount of timber and ore.

Even if three people worked tirelessly day and night to retrieve the boxes, it would be impossible to collect them all overnight.

unless……

"She also encountered some kind of extraordinary adventure."

Or it could be some kind of special awakened talent.

Her name is Li Ruobing, and her defensive method is Frost Armor.

It's highly likely that they obtained something from the supply island.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Qin Yu's serious expression, Yao Xue also came over to take a look.

When she saw the "100 square meters", she was also stunned for a moment.

"How did Li Ruobing... do it so fast?"

"Yesterday it was only about 20 square meters, how did it suddenly become..."

"Just lucky."

Qin Yu turned off the leaderboard, his tone indifferent.

"In this world, there are billions of people besides us."

"There will always be a few chosen ones."

"There's nothing strange about it."

He wasn't worried.

One hundred square meters is a huge amount of space in other people's eyes.

But compared to his 800-square-meter Presidential Ship, it's just a slightly larger sampan.

not to mention.

He has Deep Sea Guardians, Deep Sea Ghosts, TX Collectors, and that incredible daily lottery system.

This is an absolute generational gap.

"Never mind her."

Qin Yu stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

Looking at the sea outside, which was eerily calm.

"As long as she doesn't provoke me, I'll let her do whatever she wants."

"But if they dare to lay their hands on me..."

Qin Yu's eyes turned cold.

"I'll show her how ice is broken."

He turned around and looked at Yao Qian, who was still engrossed in eating her porridge, and Yao Xue, who looked worried.

He clapped his hands.

"Alright, stop standing there."

"After we finish eating, we'll move on to the next step of our plan."

"Next step?"

Yao Xue raised her head.

"Um."

Qin Yu pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

"We have ships, we have defenses, and we have living quarters."

"Next, we need to address the most critical issue."

"power."

Such a large ship cannot be moved by simply drifting.

To gain the upper hand in this apocalyptic ocean, we must get it moving.

And you have to be fast.

"Yao Qian".

Qin Yu suddenly called out names.

"ah?!"

Yao Qian was so startled that she almost dropped the spoon in her hand.

"W-what's wrong, Brother Qin Yu?"

"Stop playing dead."

Qin Yu looked at her wretched appearance and felt both annoyed and amused.

"After dinner, go and move all the unopened treasure chests caught by the automatic fishing nets onto the deck."

"I'm going to open blind boxes today."

"Let's see if we can get what we need."

Hearing "opening blind boxes".

Yao Qian's eyes finally lit up, and her embarrassment lessened considerably.

This is her favorite part.

"Okay! I'll go right now!"

She pushed the bowl aside and rushed downstairs to the warehouse as if fleeing.

As long as you don't live under the same roof as those two people.

I'm willing to do any kind of manual labor.

Watching her younger sister flee in panic, Yao Xue sighed.

"This girl..."

"Does she know something?"

Although Yao Xue is naive, she is not stupid.

Qin Yu walked behind her, wrapped his arms around her waist, and rested his chin on her shoulder.

"So what if I know?"

"In this world, the three of us are each other's only support."

"You'll have to get used to it sooner or later."

He whispered in Yao Xue's ear.

Hot air sprayed onto the earlobes.

Yao Xue's body went limp, and her face turned as red as a ripe apple.

"You...you mustn't do anything reckless."

"In broad daylight..."

Qin Yu smiled and released his grip.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Let's go see how lucky we are."

"If only we could get an engine running, tonight..."

Qin Yu paused, his eyes filled with ambiguity.

"I'll give you an extra meal."

Yao Xue glared at him fiercely.

But there was no trace of that icy demeanor in those eyes.

It was clearly a pool of spring water.
