I started by watching videos, and I chose 10,000 combat power.

The first rays of morning sunlight fell on Luo Fei's eyes.

He slowly opened his eyes, and heard the sound of waves lapping against the hull outside the window.

Occasionally, some sounds could be heard coming from the direction of the kitchen in the distance, presumably Old Li was already preparing breakfast.

He summoned the system in his mind.

[Today's divine choice has been triggered.]

Option A: Obtain one ton of "Exquisite BBQ Seasoning" (canned, 500g per can, with complete recipe and preparation instructions. Suitable for all kinds of BBQ ingredients, with an excellent flavor.)

Option B: Receive a cash transfer of 100,000 yuan (Chinese currency, instant transfer, legal source).

Luo Fei chose A without hesitation.

Instead of checking the items in his storage ring, he got out of bed, walked barefoot onto the soft carpet, and went to the window to draw back the curtains.

The horizon in the distance is clearly visible, with a light blue sky above and a few thin clouds floating by; below is a deep blue sea, several shades deeper than the sky.

After changing his clothes, he pushed open the door and walked out of the room.

On the deck, Xiao Lin and Xiao Wang were already busy. Seeing Luo Fei come out, they greeted him in unison, "Good morning, Mr. Luo."

Luo Fei nodded and walked towards the bow of the ship.

Captain Sun was standing on the deck at the bow of the ship, holding a cup of tea, quietly watching the sunrise.

Hearing footsteps, he turned around and said with a smile, "Mr. Luo, the weather is nice today, the visibility is very high, and there are no waves at sea."

Luo Fei walked up to him and asked, "How much longer until we get to Diaoyu Island?"

Captain Sun estimated, "We should arrive before noon. If all goes well, we should be able to dock around 11 a.m."

Luo Fei nodded and said nothing more.

A series of footsteps came from behind, some light and some heavy.

Luo Fei turned his head and saw his mother come out wearing a coat, her hair was a little messy, and her eyes were slightly squinted, obviously she had just woken up.

Luo Weidong followed behind his wife, his steps more steady than hers, but he still looked sleepy as if he had just woken up.

Luo Fei looked at his parents, a slight smile playing on his lips, then turned and walked with them to the dining room for breakfast.

Breakfast was very lavish, with a table full of dishes including congee with preserved egg and lean pork, steamed buns, fried dumplings, boiled eggs, several small dishes of pickled vegetables, and a pot of hot soy milk.

After breakfast, Captain Sun returned to the bridge, started the engine, and began to weigh anchor.

The iron chain was pulled up from the water with a clatter, the anchor claws, along with mud, sand, and broken shells, were washed clean by the seawater.

The boat shuddered slightly, then slowly moved forward, gradually increasing its speed, leaving a longer and longer white trail behind it.

For the next few hours, Li Xiulan didn't fish anymore. Instead, she moved a chair to the deck at the bow of the boat and quietly gazed at the sea.

Her condition today is completely different from yesterday.

Yesterday was mostly out of curiosity; I wanted to see everything and everything felt new and exciting. Today, it's purely about enjoyment. I'm not in a hurry to see anything; I just sit there, letting the sea breeze blow and the sun shine on me.

Occasionally, when she sees a group of flying fish skimming past the side of the boat, or a seabird flying overhead, she will softly exclaim, "Look!" and then quiet down and continue sitting.

Luo Weidong sat next to her. The two rarely spoke, just sitting side by side, shoulder to shoulder.

Around noon, a small dot appeared on the distant sea.

Luo Fei stood beside the cockpit, squinting as he gazed into the distance for a while. The small dot gradually grew larger, transforming from a blurry outline into the shape of an island—low hills covered in green vegetation, surrounded by a ring of light blue seawater.

"We've arrived," Captain Sun called out.

Luo Fei went to the bow of the ship and stood beside his parents.

As we get closer to Diaoyu Island, the rocks and trees on the island become clearly visible, and we can even see the highest point of the island—a small hill that isn't very high, with a bare top and hardly any trees.

But there was something standing on the mountaintop: a thin pole with a red glow slowly rising from below, standing out brightly in the sunlight. Several figures were also standing nearby.

Li Xiulan also saw it and asked, "Is that the flag of the Dragon Kingdom?"

Luo Fei replied, "Yes."

Li Xiulan didn't speak again, but sat up straight and her expression became serious.

The boat circled around to the west side of the island, where there was a relatively gentle coastline where we could dock.

But Luo Fei noticed that a white yacht, smaller than their boat and with sleek lines, was already moored on the shore. The deck was empty, the anchor had been dropped, and the mooring lines were tied to several large rocks on the shore.

It was the same boat that the group of rich kids we met yesterday was on.

Captain Sun also saw it and turned to Luo Fei: "Mr. Luo, that's the same ship we encountered yesterday. Should we find another place to dock?"

Luo Fei looked at the coastline and then observed the terrain of the island, saying, "Let's dock a little further away from them and find a place where it's easy to get on and off."

Captain Sun responded and slowly maneuvered the boat closer. He found a suitable shore about two hundred meters from the yacht, dropped anchor, and tied the mooring lines.

After the boat came to a stop, Luo Fei returned to his parents and said, "Mom, Dad, we've arrived. Let's go up to the island and take a look."

Li Xiulan stood up, glanced at the island, and hesitated.

Luo Fei smiled and said, "It's alright, we're just going for a walk on the island and taking some photos. Take it easy, I'll help you."

Xiao Lin and Xiao Wang have already started preparing their items for going to the island.

Barbecue grills, charcoal, seasonings, ingredients, drinks, tablecloths, and folding chairs were all moved out of the storage room and neatly stacked on the deck.

Luo Fei glanced at it, walked over, took out several jars of "Exquisite Barbecue Seasoning" from his ring, and mixed them with the other bottles and jars without attracting anyone's attention.

He turned to A-Jie and Xiao-Chen and said, "You two are responsible for carrying the barbecue grill and ingredients, and bring the fishing gear too. See if there's a place to fish on the island. Xiao-Lin and Xiao-Wang, please take care of my parents for me." They all agreed in unison.

Luo Fei glanced at the waists of the group of people again; they were all slightly bulging, covered by their clothes, and could not be noticed unless you looked closely.

But he realized it was a pistol.

He looked away without saying anything, but felt a little more at ease.

The group began to disembark.

The shore is a rocky beach, not too steep, but very uneven, with rocks of all sizes everywhere. Some are smooth and rounded by the sea, while others are angular and sharp, making them a bit uncomfortable to step on.

Li Xiulan stepped on the first rock and slipped, but Luo Fei's hand steadily supported her arm.

She looked down at the slippery stones under her feet, took a deep breath, and slowed her pace even further.

Luo Weidong followed behind, unsteady on his feet. He tried to reach out to help Li Xiulan, but she pushed him away, saying, "Take care of yourself first."

The two bickered quietly as they walked forward, one step at a time.

The air was filled with the scent of grass, trees, and soil, mixed with the salty smell left by the evaporation of seawater.

After walking several dozen meters, the ground turned into mud and gravel, with low shrubs and grass growing in some places, blending in with the tall trees on the island.

Luo Fei glanced back at the direction of the yacht, then looked up at the highest point of the island.

He vaguely saw figures moving on the mountaintop, busy doing something under the flagpole.

Luo Fei looked away and said to his parents, "Mom, Dad, find a cool place to rest. Let Xiao Lin and Xiao Wang keep you company. I'm going to wander around the island and see if I can hunt some wild game to have for lunch."

Upon hearing the word "wild game," Li Xiulan's eyes lit up immediately: "There's wild game on this island?"

Luo Fei smiled and said, "Maybe. I'll go in and take a look. Don't go too far; just stay in this area."

He turned to look at Xiaolin and Xiaowang.

Xiao Lin immediately understood what he meant, stepped forward, and said with a smile to Li Xiulan and Luo Weidong, "Auntie, Uncle, let's find a shady spot to sit down, set up our fishing gear, and maybe we can catch some fish. We can have a barbecue for lunch, along with some fresh sea fish, wouldn't that be great?"

Li Xiulan was persuaded by her words, nodded, and followed her to a flat, large rock on the shore.

Luo Weidong followed behind, took a couple of steps, then turned back to look at Luo Fei and said, "Don't go too far, be careful."

Luo Fei responded and turned to walk deeper into the island.
