When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean.-Chapter 328 - 227: Return to Reef Island, Fishing Enforcement_2
Basically, sailors or other professionals on this ship can only sleep on the deck.
Because it was carrying too much cargo, the ship wasn’t fast. Chen Qing could only communicate with the Mechanical Heart remotely about the situation on the reef island.
The Mechanical Tree could only nest on the deck of a ship at the back, looking a bit pitiful.
However, the Mechanical Tree, after all, is not the Mechanical Heart. It has no intelligence to speak of, only some functions given to it by Consciousness Fragment.
While Chen Qing was sitting cross-legged on the deck reading a book, something suddenly climbed onto the ship.
She looked up and saw it was a Muscle Turtle.
A Muscle Turtle that had been modified by Chen Qing.
It opened the turtle shell, took out a stack of newspapers from inside, and respectfully handed them over to Chen Qing with both hands.
"Wait a minute, don’t be in a hurry to leave."
Chen Qing opened the newspaper and called out to the Muscle Turtle that was about to leave without even raising her head.
There was a Mechanical Virus on her ship; she had to make sure the Muscle Turtle hadn’t gotten contaminated before letting it go.
Otherwise, if it spread across the entire ocean... maybe that wouldn’t be so bad?
Chen Qing scanned the newspaper content, and there she was again.
Although not on the front page, she was very prominent, with the photo the Survivor Observation Team had taken of Chen Qing sniping at Shine from the tower.
The front page of the Deep Blue Daily was about survivors besieging the Parati Islands. Besides the Three Islands that Chen Qing helped Mou Dingying capture, the Five Islands and Twelve Islands were also taken by survivors!
Delugu was raided, but it still hadn’t given up its territory in the Faroe Islands.
Given the current situation, Delugu would sooner or later be taken down by the survivors.
Chen Qing’s gaze moved down, and she suddenly paused.
What an astonishing beauty.
She was referring to the woman in the photo, who was so stunning that even Chen Qing was amazed.
This woman didn’t have any news attached to her, she was on the paper purely for her looks, and her section was placed before the news of Chen Qing defeating the Cross Star.
In this world, beauty is not a scarce resource.
But beauty at the level of the woman in the photo was indeed worth the extensive coverage in the Deep Blue Daily.
How to put it, it’s beauty that could shock the world, with the first glance leaving an impact, and this impact becoming more severe with time.
Chen Qing was sure that someone from the Bounty Guild would definitely put a bounty on this woman, and it would absolutely be high.
Other than these three pieces of news, there wasn’t anything else worth Chen Qing’s attention.
They were all about pirates, hunters, and survivors, with some scandals of quite a few noble families in the Deep Blue Sea mixed in.
She closed the newspaper, and the Muscle Turtle beside her was anxiously waiting.
Mixed with apprehension, there was a bit of expectation in its eyes as it stared unblinkingly at Chen Qing.
Is this human going to modify it again!
However, Chen Qing only checked it over to make sure it hadn’t been contaminated with any Consciousness Fragment before letting it leave.
The Muscle Turtle was deeply disappointed, looking back with every step, hoping Chen Qing would call it back.
"Come find me on the reef island next time."
The thoughts of this Muscle Turtle were clearly written all over its face. Chen Qing glanced at it and said blandly.
"!"
The Muscle Turtle’s eyes lit up immediately, nodding vigorously.
With Chen Qing’s promise, it was motivated to work!
It would deliver Chen Qing’s newspaper again next time!
The Muscle Turtle left, and the ship fell silent once more.
Chen Qing continued delivering cargo back to the reef island, and the environment on this ship was indeed terrible.
The Mechanical Ship was an Extraordinary Ship, with everything onboard arranged by the Mechanical Heart, and all natural disasters and changes deflected by the vessel, so nothing could disturb Chen Qing.
But now that she had switched ships, it was different.
The winds and waves at night were strong, and sea beasts often appeared, making it impossible for Chen Qing to sleep.
At night, Chen Qing set up a tent on the deck to sleep, and for meals, she had Cooking Fruit; there wasn’t even a place to bathe here.
She made some Sea Water Purifiers again after a long time, along with an Automatic Fishing Net Machine and fishing rods to improve her meals.
But, carrying such large shipments, Chen Qing had to endure not just threats from the ocean, but also from humans.
Such an unassuming fleet, loaded with cargo, without even a single cannon onboard—who wouldn’t want to rob it?
New pirates couldn’t see any issues here, blinded by greed, they charged forward recklessly.
