National destiny: Starting with a coffin, building an aircraft carrier is broadcast live globally.

"Violence," "utter helplessness," "twisting the head"?

Ranyi casually yanked off his hat, sat up straight, and snatched the binoculars from Nathan's hand.

The little people in the lens...

It was indeed a curly-haired human standing on a rock with his back to them, grabbing another caveman by the neck and shaking him violently, almost blurring his image.

The caveman, on the other hand, looked completely helpless and at the mercy of others!

The captain's dark eyes sharpened instantly—

They actually dared to openly attack their vassal race on territory called the "Dragon Kingdom"?!

This is absolutely blatant provocation...

The most severe kind!

The sound of the abyss, even the water, became deep and muffled, like a giant beast silently baring its fangs.

"accelerate."

Give orders in a soft, unassuming voice.

The next second, the rudder swung its serpentine tail, and the ship suddenly accelerated, heading straight for the tranquil coastline.

As they rapidly approached.

The sea breeze finally carried the intermittent noises from the shore.

"You don't recognize it... That's benevolence... an idol... Take another look..."

Everyone: "..."

Something seems off?

He casually moved the binoculars away from his eyes, silently handed them back to Nathan, and along with them, gave him a look:

Please make sure you understand everything before reporting next time...

Nathan shrugged, spread his hands, and looked back with an innocent expression.

Was he not telling the truth?

He was simply honestly relaying what he had seen!

As for the intricate and convoluted emotional entanglements and inside stories behind it all...

He doesn't know ε(*´･∀･｀)зﾞ

......

Treehouse campsite.

The rooms here are categorized and used as storage rooms that connect to any system warehouse.

The observation deck below retains its "living room" layout... and this time it has even more strange and unusual loot.

at this time.

The atmosphere... was somewhat subtle.

This was Esting's first time coming up here. Like a student being called to an office, he only sat on a third of the chair, his hands neatly placed on his knees, and he even deliberately slowed his breathing.

He wanted to talk the whole way, but the words stuck in his throat the moment he met those dark eyes.

Nathan couldn't stand it anymore.

He handed it over, carrying a large, wooden water cup:

"God, don't be so nervous, have some water, our captain doesn't eat people..."

Right.

"Thank you, I'm not hungry!"

Esting practically sprang up, caught the glass with both hands, and blurted out.

"Pfft—"

Sita laughed out loud.

The child's face flushed red from his forehead to the roots of his neck. After sitting back down and struggling for a while, he finally blurted out:

"You're welcome!"

This time... even Klaus and Aurora, who were tidying up their long-unused feathered wings, stopped what they were doing and looked over.

Esting wished she could bury her head under her knees.

"..."

Ren Yi sighed silently, feeling utterly helpless.

It seems there's no hope of getting the other party to speak first; they're not very resilient to pressure. I'll have to do it myself.

"As long as you don't provoke trouble, my stance here is no different from the stance of the Dragon Kingdom on Earth towards you."

"However... if it causes trouble..."

His voice was calm, but inexplicably turned cold: "In the Ocean Era, there is no such thing as extradition."

The boy, who looked like a small animal to him, was not frightened at all. Instead, he suddenly raised his head as if he had been injected with chicken blood, staring at him with bright eyes.

"I understand, I understand!"

Esting nodded vigorously, "Absolutely, definitely, don't worry, idol!"

My ears felt a little hot.

He glared at Klaus and Aurora, who were barely holding back their laughter, and Nathan, who was making an exaggerated "Oh! idol" gesture behind Esther, and then followed up with the question.

"sequence?"

As he asked the question, he conjured up the dagger [Raven].

Esther stared wide-eyed at the cool dagger.

"I...I am the [Tide Listener]..."

"I'm only Lv2, I can just... hear some of the thoughts of the nearby marine life."

"Thoughts?" He raised an eyebrow casually.

This player's skill points are a bit different from the South Korean player I encountered last time?

"For example?"

"For example, today there's a green fish thinking, 'Bad luck, why did I run into these people again?'... And the sea snails on the beach are complaining, 'The sun is so nice today, I wish I could flip over and sunbathe a bit...'"

As Esther spoke softer and softer, afraid of disappointing her idol.

He himself felt that this ability was utterly useless, except for providing some gossip.

At most... at most he can take on one position...

Administrator of the underwater residents' committee?

"Every sequence is useful."

There is no such thing as a useless sequence, only useless people.

The most important point—

【The Tide Listener】, a new species!

"Hand out."

"what?"

"I'm a doctor, let me take a look at you."

The casual tone is as natural as a doctor on duty at a hospital telling a patient, "Open your mouth, ah—".

As for Esting

My idol cares about me, how wonderful that is! o(*￣▽￣*)o

Almost overwhelmed with gratitude, Esting immediately wiped his sweaty palms on his pants and then offered his hand.

"Hmm...very promising."

Before he could finish speaking, Esting felt a chill on his fingertips.

"Huh?"

He looked down and saw a thin cut on his finger; the blood hadn't even flowed out before the dark dagger absorbed it completely.

[Bloodthirsty. Gain one boost for every ten new species' blood consumed. Current consumption: 10/10.]

[Evolutionary conditions met, initiating evolution...]

Almost simultaneously, the Raven in Renyi's hand began to vibrate slightly.

"call--"

Everyone present sensed this unusual movement.

The person most concerned about the development, besides Renyi, is the forger Klaus.

He stood to the side, staring intently at the trembling dagger.

The Raven's surface was black, like weathered rock peeling away, revealing a completely different texture underneath—

A stark, silvery-white color.

The short dagger, originally only twenty centimeters long, was stretched out, but the lines became even smoother, with a blood groove extending from the hilt to the tip.

The hilt was also reshaped.

The lines became smoother, and at the end of the sword hilt, a red dot the size of a grain of rice grew out and gradually expanded into a crystal-clear blood-red crystal, like a slightly closed bird's eye, as if it would open at any moment.

It feels a bit heavy when you hold it, but the center of gravity is still just right.

The silver-white blade reflected Renyi's eyes, and with a thought, a new panel appeared in his mind.
