Midway Pier was bustling with people yet strangely quiet.

This silence was not out of fear of Wang Yao's cruelty, but out of respect.

In just a few days, this loyal lackey of Captain Su had already become notorious for his brutality, and his silence at this moment was a sign of respect for the powerful.

Su Qing paid no attention to the execution in front of her, but instead observed the young lady out of the corner of her eye.

Faced with this cruel reality, the young lady showed no fear whatsoever; instead, she watched with great interest.

It seems I was almost fooled by this young lady's cute appearance.

If the young lady of a powerful organization like the Wind Breeze Merchant Guild were just a pretty face, she would have died countless times over.

Therefore, it seems very likely that the young lady's near "accidental" exposure of her identity was intentional.

As for the purpose, whether it was to feign innocence or something else, Su Qing had no idea.

At least for now, the interests of the two sides are not in conflict, and there is no danger.

Even so, Su Qing still felt uncomfortable; these powerful figures were all more cunning than the last.

This young lady, in particular, is even more dangerous. Just as Zhang's mother said, the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is.

Except for the younger sister, of course.

My younger sister is pretty, but she's also gentle, kind, and straightforward, and she cooks really well.

"Bang!"

Zhao Ling's body crashed to the ground, and Wang Yao patted off non-existent dust from his plate armor.

With the events at Midway now completely resolved, it's time to move on.

Su Qing took out the tube of 502 glue and the materials package, and chose to use it directly.

The material bag in my hand opened automatically, and neat logs flew toward the wooden boat, circling around it.

The 502 glue also flew into the air, quickly spreading onto the two hundred pieces of wood, and then these flying pieces of wood crashed into the wooden boat.

A series of crackling sounds erupted as two hundred pieces of wood melted into the wooden boat, which visibly grew larger and its hull became a deeper color.

It's finally starting to look like a ship ready for long voyages.

The crew members on the dock were not surprised at all; on the contrary, they were quite proud.

The reason I wasn't surprised was that I had already witnessed Captain Su's prowess over the past few days.

This person is the legendary big shot.

This has become a stereotype among every crew member at Midway.

So even though it's unheard of for a captain to be able to upgrade a ship to level two at Midway, in their eyes it's just basic stuff for big shots.

As for pride, it's like when a celebrity comes out of the village, the whole village is proud of that.

Those crew members present, whenever they had the opportunity to embark on a voyage, would say, "I and Captain Sue came from the same Midway Island," and they were proud of it.

The beginning of a strong person's life is sometimes the end of an ordinary person's life.

Just as Su Qing was about to board the ship, Miss Selena stopped him.

Su Qing gave her a questioning look, and Selena responded with a smile.

"Captain, shouldn't our ship have a name?"

Su Qing then remembered that once a ship is upgraded to level two, it can be named and fly a flag.

This name will accompany the ship and its crew for life, until they achieve fame and fortune.

Or perhaps, it will sink into the sea that buries countless dreams.

For Su Qing, there is only one outcome.

Since the goal is to make a name for oneself, one must have a good name.

At this moment, Wang Yao squeezed through.

"Should we name it?"

"How about calling it 'Supreme Overlord of the World'?"

He kept saying "how about it?" but his eyes were full of pleading as he looked at Su Qing.

It's clear that he really likes this name.

Su Qing glanced at Wang Yao with disdain and decisively rejected the idea.

Selena, on the other hand, was clapping her hands.

"What a nice name, senior."

"Overbearingly domineering!"

One sentence was enough to fill Wang Yao with pride.

Countless names flashed through Su Qing's mind, but finally settled on one name.

"How's the Sunshine?"

With this name revealed, Wang Yao's dream of dominating the world was completely over, even though he really liked the name.

However, he was not saddened; on the contrary, he greatly appreciated the name.

Because that's the name of the orphanage where they grew up together.

Sunshine Orphanage.

The two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.

"Great, great, this name is good too."

"The greatest truths are the simplest, and the greatest light shines on the farthest reaches."

"This name is simple yet profound!"

Miss Selena clapped her hands beside her, praising the name, whose meaning she didn't know.

Su Qing suspected that this young lady was just a straight man, able to say any name well.

However, as expected of the young lady of the Chamber of Commerce, her speaking skills are indeed extraordinary.

Finally, I have someone cultured by my side.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Wang Yao, who simply gave him a silly grin.

Forget it, it's hopeless.

As Su Qing finalized the ship's name, a flag was raised from the mast, with the three large characters "Sunshine" fluttering in the sea breeze.

From this day forward, the name of the Sunny will resound throughout the Age of Exploration.

But now, Su Qing and the others need to board a ship and embark on a long voyage.

Su Qing had just stepped onto the rope ladder when she suddenly realized that the young lady behind her was still wearing a skirt.

He glanced back at Selena, who was still admiring the scenery, and wondered whether he should let the young lady climb up first by herself.

Selena seemed to understand what Su Qing meant.

"Captain, don't worry, we have a plan."

After saying that, she took out a pink leather bag from her waist and clicked open the clasp.

From a palm-sized leather bag, a flying carpet the size of a bed emerged. The brownish-red flying carpet was embroidered with intricate gold-threaded floral patterns and hovered in mid-air.

Selena pressed down on the back of her skirt with her hand, gently lay back, and the flying carpet caught her automatically.

She leaned against the flying carpet and winked at Su Qing.

"Captain, would you like to come along?"

Su Qing shook her head.

"You go upstairs and wait for me."

Wang Yao, standing beside him, had a glint in his eyes.

Magic Flying Carpet!

The magic flying carpet from the cartoons I watched as a child!

Wang Yao really wanted to try it out, something he had fantasized about having in his childhood.

I remember when I was little, I told Zhang's mom that I wanted a magic flying carpet, and she didn't refuse.

Instead, she gave Wang Yao a blanket and said that it was a magic flying carpet, and that he needed to concentrate to make it fly.

I foolishly believed it and stubbornly persisted in sitting on the flying carpet for a whole year.

Even when he gave up later, it was because he felt he had no magical talent, and he never suspected that Zhang's mother was lying to him.

However, although he really wanted to try, Su Zi refused, so he had to give up.

Next time, I definitely have to try the magic flying carpet!

Su Qing stood at the bow of the Sunshine and glanced back at Midway Island.

So much had happened on Midway in just a few days that it felt like only yesterday to him, leaving him with a sense of melancholy.

Chamber of Commerce influence, siege, those forgotten people, and the newly joined young lady.

All of this brought about a completely new change in his future.

As for whether it's a good thing or a bad thing?

Su Qing couldn't give an answer yet, but there was one thing he knew.

That means he needs to move forward, keep moving forward.

He turned his head to look ahead, where a vast blue ocean stretched out before him.

"Miss Selena, are we ready to go?"

Selena had already gripped the helm. "No problem, Captain, we're ready to set sail anytime."

"Let's go then."

"Aye! Aye! Captain!"

The girl shouted excitedly as the Sunshine set sail once more.
