This was also Shi Jinwei's purpose.

Last time I teamed up with the bearded guy, I got a lot of information that I couldn't find online.

The task efficiency is also high.

So today she plans to find another driver to act as her guide.

I heard that Shi Jinwei was going on a sea monster mission, and she was going all by herself.

Many drivers simply made up an excuse and fled.

The last one left was a boy who looked even younger than Shi Jinwei.

She accepted two missions to hunt S-class sea monsters, each with a reward of 25000 contribution points.

The little boy initially wanted to back out.

Hearing Shi Jinwei mention a reward of 2000 contribution points, he hesitated for a moment but still didn't leave.

Someone nearby noticed what was happening and kindly said to Shi Jinwei, "Girl, is this your first mission? I suggest you find a more experienced driver. This kid's dad did this kind of thing, but he wasn't good enough and died."

"You're talking nonsense. It's clearly those people who don't care whether my dad lives or dies," the little boy immediately retorted when he heard the man say that about his father.

Those around him sneered, showing expressions of indifference.

Shi Jinwei was unaware of the shady dealings involved and had no interest in them.

It was clear that the boy, despite clenching his fists and trembling with anger, remained calmly standing there, so we chose him.

The boy thought she would hesitate after hearing those words.

Unexpectedly, the result was surprising, and my worries immediately turned into joy.

The kind person clicked their tongue, muttered "Don't appreciate kindness," and turned to leave.

Shi Jinwei went to the parking lot with the boy and was surprised to find that his car was nice. She raised an eyebrow.

After getting in the car, she said she needed to buy diving equipment first.

I didn't know yesterday that hunting strange beasts would involve going into the sea, so I wasn't prepared.

The little boy's name is Xiao Wen. Jinwei didn't even have any equipment when the accident happened.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Sir, if you want to buy equipment, you can go to the market. There are a few nice little shops there that are cheaper than the specialty stores."

She glanced at Xiao Wen: "Do you know the names of those stores?"

Xiao Wen nodded, and she then had someone drive.

The child's eyes are sincere; he doesn't seem to be lying.

She's not a novice either; she has the ability to judge whether the equipment is good or bad.

The two parked their car in the parking lot at the market entrance, and Shi Jinwei paid the parking fee.

Xiao Wen led her skillfully to an equipment store.

The shop isn't big, but it has a lot of stuff.

They even have protective suits and air purifiers.

The diving equipment is of good quality and reasonably priced.

Shi Jinwei bought five sets of diving equipment and a five-day supply of oxygen cylinders.

Thinking that she might need these things for her future sea voyage, she asked the shopkeeper before leaving, "Do you have stock if I need a large quantity?"

The boss was surprised; the things this girl bought today were enough for her to complete more than ten tasks by herself.

How much more do you need?

Shi Jinwei stated directly: "A two-year supply."

We don't know how long the sea voyage will take, but the oxygen cylinders here, which are actually 200ml bottles, are for 24 hours.

Buy more; there's still room to store them.

The boss and Xiao Wen were dumbfounded.

"Do you have any in stock?" Seeing that the two didn't answer, she asked again.

"Yes, yes, yes, but it needs to be shipped out, which will take three or four days." The boss nodded repeatedly.

His tone betrayed his undisguised excitement.

If this order goes through, it will be enough to support his business for several months.

Fearing that a major client might leave, he added, "If you're sure you want that much, I'll give you a 20% discount—no, a 30% discount—and an extra month's supply as a gift. How about that?"

Shi Jinwei thought it was a good idea, so she kept the boss's contact number.

I'll give him the exact information after I finish my task today.

The boss watched the two leave with bated breath, and secretly gave Xiao Wen two hundred contribution points as a "thank you fee".

Whether the business goes through or not, the fact that Xiao Wen brought people here today is a matter of goodwill.

He couldn't help but be grateful.

Shi Jinwei naturally noticed their subtle actions.

Unaware of her exceptional hearing, the two men overheard her gratitude.

It has been confirmed once again that Xiao Wen is not a "shill" for the store.

Xiao Wen walked out of the shop in a daze, never expecting to encounter such a wealthy and powerful person today.

After thinking about it, he decided to tell the truck driver about the money his boss had given him.

Unexpectedly, Shi Jinwei told him, "That's what you deserve."

The little boy was so touched that he sped up quite a bit.

Knowing it was Shi Jinwei's first mission, he dutifully told her about the events outside the city on the way.

She was particularly interested in hearing information about the seaside.

Anya City is located south of the sea, which is about 80 kilometers away as the crow flies.

Building a safe city by the sea is inherently a very unsafe thing.

Unfortunately, after the apocalypse, many materials found on mutated sea beasts were not found on mutated land animals.

After the people with superpowers tasted success here, more and more people gradually gathered around.

It has taken many years to develop from a base into a safe city.

"Fortunately, the Earth's magnetic field has been much more stable this year, and the 'weak magnetic field' has become more regular. We can also predict the tides, and no major disasters have occurred," Xiao Wen said.

Shi Jinwei asked curiously, "Wasn't there a tsunami?"

This was a perfectly normal topic, but Xiao Wen gave a smile that was more like a grimace: "Yes, it happened, but not frequently, and it didn't even reach the safe city. Only the ability users who were on missions by the sea were affected."

Then, Xiao Wen said that the most recent tsunami was three years ago.

The "weak magnetic field" arrived two days early, and a tsunami suddenly appeared on the sea.

All communication devices and vehicles malfunctioned instantly.

The superhumans on their mission at the beach were caught off guard and had no choice but to flee.

One-third of the superhumans who were on missions at the beach perished.

On their way back to the city from the seaside, they encountered many mutated beasts and strange occurrences.

At that time, the first generation of imaging devices already existed.

"Sound imaging" does not involve communication and can still be used.

They used the imaging device to evade the pursuit of the strange creatures and mutated beasts.

In the end, only about one-third of the superpowered individuals escaped back to the city.

That was the biggest disaster Anya City has encountered in recent years, and many people still remember it vividly.

"My father perished at the beach that time. He was an ordinary person; during the tsunami, he was abandoned by those superhumans and couldn't escape."

Xiao Wen added a final sentence.

It was as if he wanted to explain to Shi Jinwei that his father did not die because of his lack of technical skills.

Shi Jinwei remained silent for a while, unsure how to comfort her.

He simply said, "It depends on your performance. If you do well today, I'll hire you again tomorrow."

This kid knows a lot; he's really familiar with the coastal terrain.

It would also speed up her task completion, and she wouldn't mind hiring the bearded man for a few more days, just like she did with the other man.

As they were talking, the car was almost at the seaside.

Once outside the city, without the protective shield, the sky outside turned gray again.

As they approached the seaside, the distant scenery was even more breathtaking for Shi Jinwei.

Dark clouds rolled across the sky above the distant sea.

The air was faintly filled with flashes of lightning and thunder, and muffled sounds continued to echo.

When the power of the accumulated energy is sufficient, a thick pillar of lightning strikes straight down from the sky into the sea.

On the sea surface, several whirlpools were churning.

The lightning bolts struck several vortexes, creating a spectacular scene reminiscent of a science fiction blockbuster.
