After sending the message, Lu Shuo tapped his leg with his fingers.

To be honest, he was very panicked.

There were several vicious dogs barking outside, trying to rush up and tear him apart.

"My dear aunt, can you please reply to my message soon?!"

Lu Shuo muttered anxiously to himself.

However, he was lucky; the other party noticed the private message.

"What deal? I'm out of refined steel."

"I've encountered a pack of vicious dogs who want to kill me and seize my resources. They've surrounded me, and I need you to come and rescue me."

Five kilometers away, 30 meters deep in the Dead Sea.

Zhang Yan stared blankly at the message on the screen.

She had never met this person before, yet he wanted her to help him?

Zhang Yan pondered for a moment and replied, "What kind of reward can you offer?"

"We'll split all the spoils after we kill them."

"...Do you think I'm stupid?"

Zhang Yan was speechless.

"Hey, this girl's not stupid!"

Lu Shuo realized he could no longer treat the other party as a naive girl in his dealings.

He's a smart person too.

Naturally, no one would risk their life to help him for half the resources.

Moreover, Zhang Yan would need to step in to provide those half of the resources.

Rather than doing that, Zhang Yan might as well take matters into her own hands and get all the resources.

If she were ruthless enough, she could even win over Lu Shuo, which would bring her even more resources—a win-win situation.

"I was just joking. In addition to this condition, I'm willing to offer a bottle of basic body enhancement potion, how about it?"

Lu Shuo glanced outside.

Zhao Long could no longer contain himself, and he slowly steered his boat closer.

He didn't dare to go too fast, lest Lu Shuo launch a counterattack in his dying moments and damage his vehicle.

At that time, his "good brothers" will definitely take his place and throw him into the sea to feed the monster.

We're all the same kind of people, there's no need to hide anything.

The others shared the same thought and dared not go too fast to avoid damaging their vehicles.

Their thoughts, in fact, gave Lu Shuo a chance to catch his breath.

Why haven't you replied yet?

Lu Shuo noticed that Zhang Yan was silent and had not replied for a long time.

Moreover, it displays a "read" status.

Lu Shuo's heart sank.

"Does she not want to...?"

"That's quite normal. I might not be willing to do it either, since I could also be lying to her, just wanting to lure her here and get rid of her."

Lu Shuo could understand Zhang Yan's choice.

But he's probably really going to die here today.

These vicious dogs will definitely not let him go.

"Since that's the case, even after I die, you won't have an easy time!"

Lu Shuo hardened his heart.

Even before he dies, he wants to bite off a piece of Zhao Long's flesh!

He understood the other team; they were driven entirely by self-interest.

If Zhao Long gets injured, will the others really watch him get better?

I doubt it.

He will definitely be torn to shreds by his own "brothers"!

Just as Lu Shuo was about to make a final desperate attempt before he died, a "ding-dong" sound came from the chat interface.

I replied!

This simple notification sound made Lu Shuo nervous.

Will she agree?

Lu Shuo looked at the screen, his heart sinking completely.

"Feel sorry."

Zhang Yan replied.

Lu Shuo shook his head with a bitter smile. Who could he blame? He could only blame himself for not being strong enough and for his bad luck.

Ding Dong!

Another notification sound!

Lu Shuo looked at the chat interface in surprise, his whole body trembling with excitement.

"I need 10 more units of fuel!"

"Can!"

Give me the coordinates.

Lu Shuo sent his location and began to wait anxiously.

Five kilometers away.

Zhang Yan floated to the surface of the sea from the seabed.

Her ship was a reconnaissance vessel, capable of roaming freely on the seabed.

"Five kilometers away from me?"

Zhang Yan did not rush to the coordinates given by Lu Shuo, but instead reluctantly turned on the reconnaissance radar.

Five red dots were clearly visible on the radar screen at a distance of about 5 kilometers.

The trend is that four red dots surround one lonely red dot.

These red dots represent ships.

"Whether he didn't lie to me or not, it's possible he was deliberately presenting that image."

Just to be on the safe side, Zhang Yan steered the boat toward Lu Shuo while simultaneously using binoculars to confirm his location.

When she saw four ships surrounding a lone vessel, she was basically certain of Lu Shuo's statement.

When they were about a kilometer away, Zhang Yan could already see Lu Shuo's dilapidated ship.

"How pitiful! Many parts are missing, and the ship is so damaged."

"No wonder he stopped running. His durability must be too low. He'll fall apart if he keeps running."

Lu Shuo was having a very difficult time at that moment.

Zhao Long and his group had already steered their boat closer.

He somehow got a pistol and stood on the deck with one hand on his hip, firing the other repeatedly at Lu Shuo's porthole.

Boom!

The bullet hit the glass, leaving a spiderweb-like pattern.

The second-tier ship is already bulletproof, but it won't last long at this rate.

"Warning, durability is below 10%, please repair as soon as possible!"

"Warning: The hull is severely damaged, and all parts will be destroyed. 10 minutes remaining!"

Lu Shuo felt even more irritated upon hearing the warning.

"Damn it, shut up!"

"If I could fix it, I would have fixed it for you already. What could I do?"

Where is Zhang Yan?

Lu Shuo was desperately waiting; the only person who could save him now was this stranger with whom he had only made one transaction.

Zhao Long laughed heartily; he realized that Lu Shuo was no longer a threat at all.

His ship was basically completely destroyed.

"Kid, you were so arrogant, weren't you? Keep going, come and ram me with your boat! I'll be waiting for you right here!"

"Haha, he wouldn't dare come out; he'd probably be riddled with holes the moment he opened the door!"

The group burst into laughter.

As Zhao Long loaded bullets into his gun, he jumped onto Lu Shuo's deck.

He pressed his face against the porthole, revealing a set of large, yellow teeth, and growled coldly, "Kid, your time has come!"

"Smash it! Smash his boat! Open his windows!"

Zhao Long wanted to save some bullets, so he had his henchmen take axes and chop at Lu Shuo's glass.

"We can hold on for just one last minute!"

"Sis, are you really going to come to the rescue at the last minute like Xiao Yan did?"

Lu Shuo was starting to despair.

"The last ten seconds..."

Lu Shuo had already picked up his pistol, intending to exchange it for some scum before he died.

They are just ordinary people, unlike second-tier monsters who can withstand bullets.

Ultimately, it is the nemesis of carbon-based life forms!

There were only five seconds left before the porthole shattered.

Lu Shuo's eyes hardened.

Just then, a blinding flash of fire shot out from the sea, accompanied by thick smoke, and hurtled towards Zhao Long's ship.

"Holy crap, a missile!"

Zhao Long was stunned when he saw what it was.

boom!

The missile landed on Zhao Long's ship, and the terrifying impact immediately created huge waves several meters high, with flames and thick smoke shooting into the sky!

"My goodness, that's incredible!"

Lu Shuo stammered to himself.
