Survival at Sea: Recruit Top-Tier Mature and Beautiful Schoolgirls at the Start

"Why is the energy from the energy crystal being consumed so quickly!"

Hu Biaochuan exclaimed in surprise.

Just as the energy crystal was about to run out of energy, two thick ice walls pressed down on their heads.

He felt a chill run down his spine.

"Damn it, we've really messed up this time!" he roared angrily.

Just then, the energy crystal ran out of energy, and the protective shield instantly lost its effectiveness.

The two ice walls that were pressing down on the boat lost their protective shield and fell straight down, crushing Hu Biaochuan's wooden boat beneath them.

"Resolved?"

Chu Mengli activated her eagle eye, observing the situation on Hu Biaochuan's side from all angles.

The results showed that there were no signs of any living people.

"It seems the problem is really solved. What a nuisance. SSS-level talent holders are truly difficult to deal with. Fortunately, we're at sea, and the captain left behind enough resources. If it were a direct confrontation, I might not be his match."

Chu Mengli sighed inwardly.

However, she did not realize that her identity was merely that of a crew member.

She, a single crew member, defeated a captain with SSS-level talent and two crew members in a one-on-one battle.

It's fortunate that Hu Biaochuan didn't know this; if he had, he probably would have been so angry he'd vomit blood.

After observing for a while and seeing that there was nothing wrong, Chu Mengli steered the sailboat toward its destination.

Somewhere in the ocean.

Qin Shiye stared at the message in the chat box, his pupils dilating. "How is this possible? Someone actually defeated Hu Biaochuan in a head-on confrontation!"

He sent a message to the other side: "No matter what, we must win this person over. I have a feeling that she may be the key to our victory over Ye Hang."

Qin Shiye hung up the chat and looked out at the sea.

At that moment, a column of water rose from the sea, and then a warrior from the Kingdom of Arclandis emerged on a jet ski.

Qin Shiye's eyes lit up instantly.

This warrior's name is Balu, and he encountered him following the clues provided by Kai.

After contributing a considerable amount of materials and supplies, they finally established contact with Balu.

Baru walked arrogantly onto the wooden boat. "Survivor, I've already spoken with our captain about your request. He said he can take you back to the city-state. However, your strength is too weak; what mission you can complete depends on your luck. As for the sailboat blueprints you mentioned, our captain said it will cost at least six mid-level potions in exchange; anything else is out of the question."

"Thank you, Lord Balu," Qin Shiye said respectfully. "Then I'll have to trouble you, sir."

……

After completing the quest to defeat the fishmen in the crystal mine, Ye Hang returned to the city-state.

Kevin went back to the palace to report, and Clara followed him, leaving Ye Hang alone to wander around.

He said he would contact him again if anything came up.

Ye Hang could have gone straight back, but he thought it would be boring to go back, so he decided to wander around and look for Nangong Shuhuan to see what that girl had gone off to do.

He discovered Nangong Shuhuan without much effort.

She stood in the city-state's mission square, where a digital screen displayed numerous missions.

Ye Hang stepped forward. "What are you looking at?"

When Nangong Shuhuan saw that it was Ye Hang who had come, she explained her discovery.

It turns out that this task plaza offers many tasks, such as eliminating sea monsters, helping with deliveries, and finding items.

Completing tasks earns you points, which can then be used to redeem items such as physique potions.

Ye Hang's eyes lit up after hearing this. "Then we can't miss these missions. Physique potions and intuition potions are always welcome."

Nangong Shuhuan nodded, "My thoughts are the same as the captain's; of course we should accept these missions. I've come up with the fastest way to accumulate points. Following this plan will save us a lot of trouble."

As she spoke, Nangong Shuhuan handed a slip of paper to Ye Hang.

Ye Hang glanced at it and understood Nangong Shuhuan's idea.

For example, you can deliver goods to the West City Farm, and on the way to the West City, you can also pick up a mission to clear out the sea monster on West City Avenue.

In this way, two tasks were completed in one trip, and the time spent was not much more.

Of course, this example is relatively simple; the one compiled by Nangong Shuhuan is far more complex.

If they follow her steps, their efficiency can increase threefold.

"Well done."

Ye Hang gave his approval, and then, without further hesitation, began to accept the task according to the plan that Nangong Shuhuan had prepared.

They also informed Chu Mengli that they might be back later than usual.

that's it.

Ye Hang spent a fulfilling day here, earning enough points to redeem four bottles of intermediate-level constitution potion and four bottles of intermediate-level intuition potion.

All four bottles of medicine were given to Nangong Shuhuan.

As a result, Nangong Shuhuan's physique and intuition both increased by 2 points, and Ye Hang's physique and intuition also increased by 2 points.

Silent all night.

The next day, which was the fourth day of the countdown, Kevin came to invite him to the royal palace, saying that the lord wanted to see him.

Ye Hang did not refuse.

Nangong Shuhuan didn't go; instead, she continued to wander around the city-state.

Soon, Ye Hang entered the castle under Kevin's guidance, where there was a path paved with a red carpet.

At the end of the road was a throne, where the lord sat, and Naina and Clara stood below him.

Judging from the lord's expression, he didn't seem very friendly.

Ye Hang frowned slightly, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

"You are Ye Hang?" the lord asked first.

"That's right. I wonder what the lord wants with me?" Ye Hang felt no fear whatsoever. Although the lord was imposing and his attitude was not very friendly, he knew that the other party would not do anything to him.

So far, he has been helping the city-state, and this is an NPC city-state, so what does he, as a player, have to fear?

"Interesting." The lord's lips curled slightly. "You're not afraid of me. No wonder my daughter took a liking to you. However, don't think you can get my daughter so easily. If you want to become the prince consort of my city-state, you must first prove your strength to me."

Ye Hang was slightly taken aback.

How did this suddenly turn into a conversation about the prince consort?

Seemingly noticing his confusion, Naina quickly came over and explained in a low voice.

After her explanation, Ye Hang immediately understood.

It turned out that after witnessing his strength yesterday, Clara decided that he was her future husband, and then rushed to the lord, who was also her father, to tell him about it.

"Old man, from now on, Warrior Ye Hang will be my husband. You should be mentally prepared."

"In short, that's the situation, and my mind is made up!"

Clara was the lord's most beloved daughter, and suddenly she found a husband, who was a warrior from elsewhere.

As a father, he naturally wouldn't allow it, but he couldn't go against his daughter's wishes, so he had to use his own methods to test the capabilities of his future son-in-law.

The method is simple: find the strongest warrior in the city-state to fight Ye Hang.

If Ye Hang wins, then he will agree to the marriage.
