Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 834 - 81 Please Bring in a Professional
Legend has it that the exiled Sakura Dragon from the distant west, severely wounded, fled to Fusang, and the blood seeping from its wounds mixed into the mountain springs, becoming an undying elixir. The nobles at the foot of the mountain consumed it and turned into half-human half-dragon creatures...
(There’s no such legend!)
Wang Yunxiao wasn’t particularly familiar with Fusang’s myths and legends. He couldn’t figure out which evil god these people were sacrificing to, resulting in such a ghostly state.
You’ve transmigrated, wouldn’t it be better to focus on a proper career? Why take these crooked paths?
Not good.
Gao Qiaoxin’s mind was already in turmoil, whether due to pollution or taking too many drugs, Wang Yunxiao had tried all possible methods, including a physical therapy of big slaps and Little Gourd’s mental therapy, yet still couldn’t make him recover his clarity.
He only mumbled something about a "pitch black sun..."
Are you also embarking on a path of nothingness?
These matters... can only be described as every family having their difficult scripture to recite.
In the eyes of outsiders unaware of the truth, doctors, teachers, these all seem like decently prestigious high-level professions. But only after working do people understand the untold hardships and sorrows.
Every day busy to death, yet having to endure the negative emotional feedback from the complaints of various pretend human lifeforms.
Transmigrating might be the same; the difficulty of playing with and without cheats is worlds apart.
Since Gao Qiaoxin chose this path, he surely had his own unavoidable reasons. But now the key issue isn’t him, it’s the thing he was sacrificing to, whether it was a local or an outsider?
They all say there’s no extraordinary power in this world line, but for a transmigrator, he’s actually standing on the edge of the Real World’s dimension, easily coming into contact with things outside the dimension.
And recently, due to the disturbances of the Temporal Tide, the two world lines intersected...
Meanwhile, Yan Yu’an boarding the "Yokumo" cruiser at the Yokosuka Naval Base also noticed some unsettling issues.
His judgment of the Fusang Navy had a certain degree of error.
The Fusang Navy fleet on this world line appeared formidable and mighty, and just a few years ago, they won the Battle of the Yellow Sea, with their morale sky-high.
But upon actually boarding for inspection, he discovered that almost everything was from the United Kingdom.
Previously when talking with Wang Yunxiao and Han Bin about the Fusang People’s Navy United Fleet, Yan Yu’an thought that domestically, the greatest threat over the decades was this naval fleet.
If it could be resolved, it could at least delay the Fusang Navy’s development for decades.
But wanting to resolve so many warships at once might be quite difficult from a practical operational level.
This is not some electronic cricket fight between Huang Feihong and Gatling.
Their dozens of warships are spread across different docks at Yokosuka Port, stretching for several kilometers. Even if you manage to take down one or two ships, the remaining ones can throttle out to sea, how would you chase them?
So that night, they talked about the sensitivity of the female swordsman at Liusheng Dojo... ahem, actually about the sea valve issue.
Modern ships, whether military or civilian, have such a design. Simply put, it involves opening them to let water in.
Because in especially rough sea conditions, water needs to be taken in to maintain the vessel’s stability. Sometimes when a ship is damaged and lists to one side, water can be taken from the other side to keep balance.
If opened and left unattended, it means the vessel will self-sink. Some modern warships, heavily damaged and with no value in being salvaged when brought back to the home port, may just be ordered by the ship captain to be abandoned, opening the sea valve to scuttle. Sometimes it is used to obstruct a channel by intentionally sinking.
Under normal circumstances, the ship should also be equipped with electric pumps to pump out the incoming water.
But if you stealthily open both the sea valve and closed compartments, and then sabotage the generator so the pumps don’t work, after a while, even an Immortal couldn’t save the ship.
This is an extremely efficient covert combat method; if everything goes smoothly, it can ensure that the entire United Fleet will sink overnight. Dealing with the armory and the Naval Academy afterward can dismantle about eighty percent of this Navy’s combat power.
It’s only because Yan Yu’an came from Tianmen Customs, knowledgeable about various naval war tactics, that he could devise such a sinister plan.
But plans often can’t keep up with changes. Once he actually reached Yokosuka, boarded the Fusang People’s ship, he immediately realized the loopholes in his plan.
These ships weren’t handmade by local shipbuilding Immortals but bought from the United Kingdom.
Why emphasize "bought" — at this time, the English had already completed the Industrial Revolution, and their shipbuilding capability was arguably second to none worldwide. Even if these ships were sunk, they could replenish them in no time.
They are merchandise, and merchandise prices can be negotiated.
You can take a loan.
And if truly needed, like diverting Rakshasa Country’s attention in the Far East Region, even the loan amount isn’t non-negotiable.
Thus, it is said that state affairs are exceedingly complex.
Even a history major King of Competitor starting from scratch in this era would need at least a two-million-word start.
Not to mention temporary guests like them, and local transmigrators like Gao Qiaoxin with only a few decades of information advantage.
Individual strength is indeed insignificant against the tide of times.
The ship-sabotaging plan needs long-term consideration before re-evaluation. What truly made Yan Yu’an nervous was discovering some abnormal graffiti and amulets in the ship’s crew quarters.
The graffiti looked very familiar, reminding him of Hydra.
Hydra, also known as Nine-headed Snake.
A lifelong enemy of Comrade Shi Aimin (not really)
In the marine mythology of another world line, Hydra is the spouse of the Ancient Evil God Dagun, known as "Gray Leather" in the unique local dialect of the Fusang people.
Among the tribes on the Fusang Islands and the nearby Sea People, there is an ancient heretical sect older even than the Blood Cup Sect, which worships and venerates Gray Leather, calling themselves Guanyin Followers of Gray Leather.
"Looks like we’ve met an old friend."
Yan Yu’an picked up an amulet, carefully inspecting it. After confirming his suspicion, he decisively ordered his subordinate team members, "Send a telegram to the Special Service Bureau headquarters, we’ve found evidence of the presence of Guanyin Followers of Gray Leather here. We need a specialist in dealing with this issue."
