It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Xu Shi's eyes widened. It was obvious that this was not a simple mutation, right? It felt like it was almost like an upgraded ability. Non-human creatures could do it?

Anyway, not many people in Night Sin City have studied this topic. There are not many animals in the city, and eighty to ninety percent of them are poultry and livestock raised specifically for food.

The only thing with a relatively strong presence is grandpa’s little black dog, but what else can that guy do besides being cute?

But now is not the time to delve into this, we have to solve it no matter what!

"Shen Qin, come back!"

Xu Shi no longer hesitated and gave an order to Shen Qin. At the same time, he picked up the radio on the speedboat, "Yu Xingchuan!"

"Roger that!"

The adjutant lady answered quite straightforwardly.

All the warships turned around and retreated in unison. After seeing their actions, the wooden boat seemed to realize something and it put on full speed to distance itself from the giant shark and rushed towards them.

"fire!"

As if his words were followed by reality, a loud noise was heard from the battleship in an instant.

A shell roared into the sky, illuminating the gloomy sky covered by the "rust fog" with a snow-white glow.

The next second, the shell landed squarely on the giant shark's head.

boom--

A small mushroom cloud rose up, and the hot air waves made it difficult for everyone to open their eyes.

Fortunately, there were emergency protection measures on the speedboat and no one was affected.

When the sea returned to calm, all you could see was a large area of ​​the sea dyed red with blood, with a few scattered pieces of giant shark carcasses floating on the water. The fishy smell rushed straight into your nose, making you feel a little dizzy.

Not to mention other small fish and shrimps, there is no chance they can survive.

Wow.

Mr. Xu expressed his sincere admiration for his company's military products.

Although he has never said much about it before, that is because his focus is on research related to superpowers. In fact, the updating and iteration of various weapons has never stopped.

This shows what a versatile person Jiang Chengcheng is... and the various weapons of the "Snake Ring" have also made great progress thanks to her efforts.

The battleships and combat teams that went to sea this time were naturally equipped with these latest equipment.

For example, the "Tele-Shock" electromagnetic rifle in everyone's hands is already a third-generation new product compared to half a year ago, as well as one of the protagonists of this battle - the "Lieque Type I" heavy anti-aircraft gun.

Jiang Chengcheng said that the inspiration came from the renovation of the Night Sin City's defense cannon. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a smaller version. Combined with the high concentration of "Rust Mist" ore, its power is self-evident, including its range and accuracy.

Xu Shi had not attended the previous simulation environment test, so this was his first time seeing it. He had to say that the actual effect was much better than he had expected.

This is the confidence that the “Snake Ring” brings me!

However, just as he was thinking about how to reward his lover when he returned, he heard the sharp sound of wooden boards breaking.

crunch...

Yeah!

In the blink of an eye, the wooden boat was shattered!

This was really something that could not be helped - although they managed to enter the protective range of the combined force field at the last second, they had already been destroyed to pieces, and coupled with their old structure, they were affected by the aftermath of "Lieque" and ultimately could not hold on.

Xu Shi watched the people on the wooden boat changing their faces like Sichuan Opera... In the last second he was feeling lucky for surviving the disaster, and in the next second he encountered such a thing. His mood was so complicated.

Fortunately, none of them fell into the sea in the end - Xia Xiaomao's territory expanded and she easily fished them back.

It's a blessing in misfortune.

……

"benefactor!"

Taking them back to the command ship, the middle-aged man in the lead could no longer control himself and was about to kneel down in front of Xu Shi, "Thank you for saving my life!"

"Don't kneel, don't kneel. It's not a festival, so this is not the norm."

Xu Shi showed a warm smile and gently supported him, "I'm glad you're all right."

Even better, there was no problem with language communication. Although the accent sounded a bit strange, there was no difficulty in communication.

Shen Qin rolled her eyes when she heard this. Why didn't you have this thought when I asked you to kneel down for me? This hypocrisy is so disgusting...

"If I have to say it, I still have to apologize to you. I'm so sorry for accidentally destroying your boat."

Xu Shi didn't realize this and sighed helplessly.

I didn’t expect that it was not the giant shark that caused all this, but myself... I really didn’t think so, believe me!

I always feel like I'll never be able to take off my villain hat in this lifetime...

"How can you say that?"

The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head. "We are lucky to be alive. It's all thanks to you."

"I hope you're okay."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "The casualties are not serious, right?"

"When we were resisting the fish tide before, several brothers didn't survive..."

The middle-aged man looked bitter, "To be honest, before you showed up, I had even thought of my last words..."

But he suddenly realized something, "Your attire is a little strange... You are not from the Hualan Empire, right?"

"Hualan Empire?"

Xu Shi blinked. What was the name of the new experimental field?

It was understandable that the other party said that their attire was strange. After all, from his perspective, these people's attire was also very unique - coarse linen clothes and prayer ornaments with unknown meanings, which were increasingly giving off a medieval vibe...

"No, we are from another place, some distance away from here."

He didn't dwell too much on his attire and explained hastily, "I was also leading people out to sea to explore, and I met you by chance... Before this, I didn't know that there were other people living outside our city-state."

"Me too, so I was a little scared before... Anyway, there's nothing much to say. Thank you so much."

The middle-aged man nodded. It was obvious that he was quite shocked to encounter humans from outside his own living area.

And during his narration, Xu Shi gradually became clear about their affairs.

According to the middle-aged man, the place where they lived was called the Hualan Empire, and they came from the affiliated island of this empire, Silver Pine Island.

This is not difficult for everyone to understand, as it is similar to the relationship between Nightsin City and the "Forsaken".

As for the structure of the Hualan Empire, Xu Shi roughly understood it—an empire with both monarchy and divine power, the Church, knights, and the Queen...

My goodness, this is completely medieval... But he was not particularly surprised, because according to He Yuxia, the experimental fields established by "Tianli" were scattered all over the world and were naturally full of diversity.

If there is a technological world like Night Sin City, there will naturally be an existence like the Hualan Empire.

"Is this place far from your Silver Pine Island? We have been drifting for a long time, and we need to find a place to get some supplies."

After getting some general information about them, Xu Shi took the initiative to ask.

"no problem!"

The middle-aged man agreed readily. The people were rescued by them, so this request was naturally a piece of cake.

Of course, the fear in his eyes did not escape Xu Shi's eyes - it was obvious that the force he displayed when fighting against the school of fish just now had already shocked them...

Ah this.

Xu Shi secretly rolled his eyes. It was a good thing that there was no real army approaching and "communicating" with them, otherwise who knows what would have turned out.

"I do have a question. Why are you going out to sea?"

Xie Qingyan suddenly interrupted, she was more curious about this matter.

Because she really couldn't understand the purpose of these people going to sea. You said they were looking for a new continent like them? That was obviously not the case. This amount of equipment was not enough to support such a big thing.

Going out to sea to fish was even more impossible. My goodness, could these seafood be eaten? She felt physically sick just looking at them... These people didn't have more noses or fewer eyes than them, and they didn't seem like the type who had to eat mutant seafood and had genetic mutations.

"This... is because the Holy See issued a notice to gather people to defeat the Sea God."

The middle-aged man thought about it and told her, "We in Yinsong Island already have the technology to build ships, so we thought about giving it a try... In fact, this was just an exercise, but we didn't expect to encounter a fish tide."

"I don't know if this is a punishment from the Sea God..."

"Poseidon?"

Xia Wuyou tilted her head. There was no such belief in Night Sin City. Those in "God's Coming" were just the hobbies of a small number of players. She also found it novel to hear such words.

"Ah, this should be a legend of our Hualan Empire?"

The middle-aged man explained, "That is to say..."

"So what materials do you use? Can you build a ship that is sailable with just wooden structures?"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by another curious baby, Jiang Chengcheng, "How did you do that?"

This is her old profession, how could she remain calm after hearing that? You have no idea how much hair I have lost in the pursuit of shipbuilding materials... It's a pity that all the ships just now were shattered into pieces, and not even a sample could be retrieved. It was so frustrating.

"I……"

Faced with everyone's questions, the middle-aged man was also confused.

"Alright, you guys."

Xu Shi pulled them to the back in annoyance, "You are making so much noise... Whose question should I answer?"

"How about this, why don't you take a good rest first, and then we can talk slowly after we send you back?"

He took a rough look and found that there were not many people on Silver Pine Island, only a dozen or so, and this command ship could easily accommodate them.

"…Thank you very much."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was still feeling uncomfortable. It was really a headache to be pestered with questions.

"By the way, you haven't asked for the name of your benefactor yet?"

He just remembered this matter and asked apologetically.

"My name is Xu Shi."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "He is the captain of this ship."

"My name is Pan Cheng, and I'm the owner of Yinsong Island."
