A pair of elegant black leather shoes walked through the cabin and slid open the metal door. The person walked into the cabin and stopped behind a figure. The person bent down and said softly over the loud music, "Ji, your sister is calling you."
Ji Shanqing, who was curled up on a thick mat and playing a game, pressed the pause button when he heard the voice. The background music immediately stopped. He put down the controller and turned to the female crew member behind him, whom he had become familiar with, and smiled, "Okay, I will go over now … Is this a Wii? This thing is quite interesting. "
"This is a relic from before the apocalypse. There aren't many left in Red Nautilus. Our captain spent a lot of effort to get these discs," the female crew member explained with a smile. She helped Ji Shanqing wrap the wires around the controller and put it away. "Come, I will bring you over."
Even though the crew members were not sure whether Ji Shanqing was a boy or a girl, it did not stop him from quickly gaining the favor of everyone. After all, he looked gentle, pure, delicate, and elegant. His clothes were always spotless, and his actions were kind and polite.
He was very different from his sister.
When the captain of the "Wanderer" found out that the person who was going to board the ship wasn't Geran and that their destination was a place he had never been to before, he didn't want to board the two strangers even though Ji Shanqing tried to persuade them. Then, Lin Sanjiu walked over with a fish tail in her hand.
At that moment, Lin Sanjiu was in a slightly violent and chaotic state.
She listened quietly for a while. Without saying anything, she punched the wall of the ship, creating a hole about 20 centimeters deep. When the captain finally realized what was going on, he hurriedly retreated far away. However, Lin Sanjiu caught up with him in a few steps and placed her hand on the captain's trembling shoulder.
"You will be rewarded for driving the ship," Lin Sanjiu said softly.
Just as the blood-soaked demoness had said, the crew members of the "Wanderer" had indeed earned a lot of benefits. They would get three to five medium crystals if they made a bed for her and prepared food and water for her. If they gave her a first aid kit and bandaged her wounds, they would get at least 30 to 40 medium crystals. That would be at least thirty to forty Medium Crystals.
Under the illumination of the fistfuls of sparkling red crystals, the tense atmosphere when the ship first set sail had long since melted away without anyone noticing.
"Miss Lin." The female crew member knocked on the door. She shouted from the door, "Your brother is here."
"Come in."
Ji Shanqing pushed the door open and walked in.
After turning around the small hall for receiving guests, there was a bedroom with a large eiderdown bed. This room was originally meant for VIPs, so everything was left behind from before the apocalypse. Lin Sanjiu's body was covered in bandages and she even had a pair of dirty boots on her feet. She lay lazily on the soft bed.
After leaving the Starry Carnival Amusement Park for such a long time, Lin Sanjiu finally looked like her usual self.
"How are you recovering?" Ji Shanqing walked over and picked up a biscuit from the plate beside her bed. He put it into his mouth and said, "By the way, are you rich? It has only been a little more than a day, but I can tell that you have used at least 200 Medium Crystals. "
Lin Sanjiu's body was buried deep in the eiderdown, but she couldn't tell from her expression whether she was comfortable or not.
"I haven't fully recovered, but it's enough." She glanced at Ji Shanqing and did not answer his question, "I told you to come here. I have something to ask you. "
"What is it?"
"Now that you don't have the mirror maze, how is your combat ability?" Lin Sanjiu sat up and asked him directly. "Do you have any ability like a posthuman?"
Ji Shanqing seemed to have never considered this question. He was stunned for a moment. He tilted his head and thought for a while. Then, he said with uncertainty, "This … I have never tried it before."
"You don't know?" Lin Sanjiu stood in the middle of the room and crossed her arms, waiting for him to continue.
"It's like this … Ever since I was born, I have always been fighting based on my instincts. You know that once I leave the mirror maze, I won't be able to use my abilities anymore." Ji Shanqing was still wearing his cloak, revealing only his somewhat confused face. "So, logically speaking, I should be able to find a way to escape. "Logically speaking, after I leave the mirror maze, I should not have any combat ability other than my fists and legs.
"However … I have told you before that anyone I kill will become a part of the grand prize. This means that their main abilities will fuse with each other. After that, they will form an ability that will be attached to me. "
After he said that, Ji Shanqing couldn't help licking his lips. He cast a quick and cautious glance at Lin Sanjiu.
Every time he showed such an expression, he was only worried about one thing.
Lin Sanjiu didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. "Didn't I say that I won't disassemble you? Just tell me what you want to say."
"If I am disassembled," Ji Shanqing looked a little nervous. Ji Shanqing looked a little nervous. "Then, this ability will become a part of the prize package and be given to the winner, which is you. If you don't dismantle me, I can 'borrow' this ability." "That's right," Ji Shanqing said.
No matter how many times Lin Sanjiu repeated that she wouldn't disassemble the grand prize, Ji Shanqing seemed to be a little worried about her.
"... So, what is the ability you have now?"
"Because it is the fusion of several people's abilities," Ji Shanqing answered honestly, "I will only know after I use it."
Lin Sanjiu didn't answer him. She pondered for a while and walked to the window. Then, she bent down and pulled out two backpacks from under the bed. Before Ji Shanqing could ask her anything, she threw one of the backpacks into his arms.
"Follow me," she ordered. Then, she turned around and walked out of the room. She didn't tell him where she was going.
Ji Shanqing picked up the backpack anxiously. He hesitated for a few seconds until Lin Sanjiu disappeared from the room. Then, he followed her.
The moment he opened the door, he was almost knocked to the ground by the strong wind that rushed into his face.
The corridor, which had been quiet when they first arrived, was now sealed off by steel plates on both sides, forming a small independent space. The wall of the spaceship that was originally on the opposite side was now open, and cold wind was rushing in with a 'whoosh' sound.
Ji Shanqing grabbed the door handle in a flurry and struggled to steady himself. Then, he squinted his eyes and looked out. He shouted, but his voice was drowned out by the wind. He almost thought that no one heard him. However, Lin Sanjiu quickly turned her head. However, Lin Sanjiu quickly turned her head and replied, "... We will disembark here!"
"What?"
Ji Shanqing held the door handle with one hand and the backpack with the other. He blinked his eyes, unable to react to Lin Sanjiu's words.
"The Slaves Training Camp is not in Free District. It is located on a desolate volcanic island that has been uninhabited since before the apocalypse," Lin Sanjiu said calmly. From her tone, it sounded like... She didn't sound like she was sitting thousands of meters in the air and was about to jump into the violent wind. Instead, she sounded like she was talking about a piece of news that she had heard by chance. "Due to the terrain, the airship can't approach the volcanic island. We can only jump into the sea here and swim over. Come here and stop moving backward! "
As Lin Sanjiu's "possession", Ji Shanqing, the grand prize, had to follow her. No matter how reluctant he was, he had no choice but to move to the edge of the exit. He quickly looked down and finally realized that he was afraid of heights in the fifth month since he was born. "... Can't we go lower before jumping?"
"The airship is too big," Lin Sanjiu said as she helped Ji Shanqing and her parachute bags, "If we want to go lower —"
Ji Shanqing didn't know what to do if they wanted to go lower. While he was still thinking about the second half of Lin Sanjiu's sentence, he felt someone pushing him from the back. Then, he screamed, "Ahhhh! You lied to me!" Then, he fell out of the airship.
"Remember to open your parachute!" Lin Sanjiu shouted. Then, she jumped out of the airship as well.
The moment of weightlessness hit her, she felt as if her heart was going to jump out of her mouth. She spread her limbs and the wind blew past her. Lin Sanjiu spun in the air and quickly approached a small figure below her.
With a bang, two umbrellas that were a little old in color suddenly bloomed in the dark blue sky.
"Little Ji, this is something from before the apocalypse. Our captain spent a lot of effort to get it."
A female crew member poked her head out from the exit of the airship. She looked at the sky below her for a while. After saying this in a soft voice, she slid onto the deck with a "dong" sound.
Of course, Ji Shanqing didn't care where the parachute on his back came from.
His face was frighteningly pale as he listened to the creaking of the old rope behind him. It was as if he had fainted during the fall. When Ji Shanqing finally fell into the water, he gasped and poked his head out of the water. When he looked back, he saw the parachute slowly descending behind him. It floated up and down along with the waves.
At this moment, another figure appeared on the surface of the sea not far away. As the silhouette stirred up the white waves as it moved forward, Lin Sanjiu's appearance gradually became clearer in Ji Shanqing's vision.
Judging from the fact that she was panting after swimming for such a short distance, it was obvious that she wasn't very good at swimming.
"I took the compass from the airship," Lin Sanjiu wiped the water off her face and stopped beside Ji Shanqing, "If we keep swimming in that direction, we should be able to see the volcanic island very soon."
The grand prize glared at her, but he didn't move.
"You're pretty good at treading water," Lin Sanjiu complimented him before she realized what was going on, "I'm not good at swimming. You still have to carry me later … Huh? Why aren't you swimming? "
"I don't know how to move in the water!" Ji Shanqing couldn't help shouting.
"Then, why didn't you sink?" Lin Sanjiu was stunned. This guy's head and shoulders were floating steadily on the surface of the water. He looked very reliable...
"I'm the grand prize! I'm not a human! " Ji Shanqing flung the parachute off his body and grabbed Lin Sanjiu's clothes, "I'm light. You can swim in front of me. I'll pull you along."
Lin Sanjiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Even though posthumans had extraordinary stamina and she didn't have the weight of her wings, she still had to drag Ji Shanqing through the water for a long time. In the end, she had no choice but to be pushed forward by the waves. Finally, they saw a small island surrounded by dense forests and mountains.
Even though they saw the island, it was already the next morning when they climbed up the rocky cliffs from the sea.
Lin Sanjiu was exhausted after swimming in the sea for such a long time. Both of them slumped to the ground.
Even though Ji Shanqing had been dragging Lin Sanjiu's clothes all the way here, he had exhausted quite a lot of energy. Both of them panted for a while. When they recovered a little, Lin Sanjiu waved her hand and the few cards turned into meat jerky and bread. They fell to the ground.
Just as Ji Shanqing stretched out his hand, Lin Sanjiu pushed him back.
"Don't waste my food if you don't need it," she said as she tore a piece of bread, "This isn't the spaceship. Food is precious."
As the grand prize, Ji Shanqing only ate for the sake of tasting the food. It was indeed a waste of food. He watched Lin Sanjiu finish her food in a few bites. Finally, he couldn't help asking, "What should we do next? How do we find the Slaves Training Camp? I think we should sneak in separately. We can't let them know that there are outsiders on the island … "
With food in her stomach, Lin Sanjiu looked much more energetic. She dusted the crumbs of the bread off her hands and swallowed the food in her mouth. Then, she mumbled something, but the moment Ji Shanqing heard it, he thought he had misheard her.
Just when he was about to ask again, Lin Sanjiu stood up.
She took a deep breath and concentrated her Qi into her dantian. Then, she raised her voice and shouted at the lush forest in front of them with her loudest voice, "Scumbags of the Slaves Training Camp, come out now!"
"If you come out in five minutes, I will leave you with your bodies intact!"
Lin Sanjiu's crisp and clear voice shook the forest. Countless birds flew into the sky in fright. Ji Shanqing sat on the ground with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"If there are ten thousand ways to find the Slaves Training Camp, this must be the worst one."
Lin Sanjiu turned to look at him and gave him a comforting smile.
"It'll be too much to vent my anger if I sneak in." As if the reason was enough, she said matter-of-factly, "I want to fight and vent my anger on these sons of b * tches. Look — "
She pointed, and Ji Shanqing saw something moving in the forest in the distance.
"The scum is here." (To be continued.)
