Shen Rui understood what Xia Daxue's last look meant. He was worried that he would be led astray by Xue Chengguang, the crow. Young people's outlook on life is too easily affected by the people around them.
Especially the communication between oneself and the other party, many of which are one-on-one private conversations and are not known to outsiders.
As he stood on the deck, the crow that had just disappeared appeared again.
"Hmph, that woman..." it said disdainfully, "You are right, I am only motivated by my own interests now. I used to devote myself wholeheartedly. As a result, I fought desperately in the front, but someone from behind took my My family was betrayed. If I had been as smart as you at that time and had given my family more consideration, even if I had arranged for them to live in a big castle, I wouldn't have been struggling like I am today with little hope."
Shen Rui did not respond. This was a heavy topic.
Crow stared at him with complicated eyes, and continued: "Now I understand that if you want to live like a person, it is enough to have people who trust you and people you trust. Everyone else is just a tool." .So I envy you very much. You are much smarter than me and you have seen through this early."
Shen Rui warned: "There is always hope, since there is such a high-level particle as 'hope'. You should have asked that wisdom particle whether it has said anything about the resurrection technique."
He believed that the other party must have asked.
"Humph, that ball of intelligent particles? It didn't answer my question. I don't think it knows at all." The crow shook its head.
Shen Rui believed that the other party was not lying, because the other party also wanted him to figure out the resurrection technique and would definitely provide the corresponding information.
"I also think there is something wrong with it, but I haven't found any evidence yet, and it hasn't done anything yet." Shen Rui agreed.
"No evidence is needed. Hey, someone is here again. I'll leave first. Remember, don't come looking for me until you reach the seventh level."
The crow dropped a word and flew away.
Shen Rui turned around and saw Mr. Chen from the logistics department walking towards him.
"Mr. Chen, is something wrong?"
Mr. Chen pushed up his new reading glasses and said, "That octopus tribe, regarding the trade agreement, do we want to follow it?"
"War is war, and business is business. As long as it is good for us and does not violate the regulations of the administration, of course we can trade with them." Shen Rui nodded.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements now. They have a lot of good stuff there, but it's impossible to build modern industry in seawater. It's destined to only serve as a source of raw materials. If we develop large-scale trade, it will be very beneficial to us." Mr. Chen smiled.
"Yes, so when we were still at war, I saw that many ports were still trading with sea monsters." Shen Rui remembered what he saw in Shangyun City and Qingji Port, and said immediately.
Mr. Chen smiled, then turned and left.
Shen Rui looked at the undulating ocean, took a long breath, and left as well.
The road ahead is still long.
…………
Under the rough sea, there is a more dangerous world.
Just off the coast not too far from the Daxing Island base, a fierce battle for the sea is taking place.
The fight between sea monsters is three points more brutal than the battle between humans and aberrations. After all, as long as the latter surrender, they still have a chance of survival. People will recruit aberrations as thugs, and aberrations will capture humans as slaves.
In the fight between sea monsters, there is no concept of surrender. If the losing party cannot escape, it will basically end up being used as food and training materials.
No matter whether you are strong or weak, or even the stronger you are, the more miserable your death will be. Rather than recruiting surrenders and rebels, the winning side would rather devour the losers to directly strengthen themselves. After all, surrender has always been synonymous with unreliability.
One side of this battle is a swarm of octopuses, and the other side is a hodgepodge of fish monsters.
This is a siege battle. The shrewd octopus people besiege from six directions, up, down, left, front and back, surrounding the opponents.
They waved their thick and powerful arms and legs, raised their ice spears, and entangled with each opponent.
In seawater combat, the effect of long-range strikes is greatly reduced. After all, the resistance of water far exceeds that of air.
The most common tactic used by both sides is to use ice to block the opponent's movements, and then use ice guns to assassinate them.
This is also the reason why they hope to import inscribed weapons from humans. An inscribed weapon that can be used in seawater for a long time can greatly save the consumption of particle energy and greatly enhance its lethality.
The sea monsters surrounded by the octopus people had long lost their fighting spirit, but because they could not escape, the trapped beasts still caused a lot of casualties to the octopus people despite fighting.
"It's a pity that it would be great if there were human inscribed armor. I heard that they have developed a new armor, but it has not been installed yet." An octopus tribe leader sighed.
"Hmph, then why don't you say it's better to have an immortal aura? The more you fight, the stronger your troops will become. It's such a pity. Several of the octopus captains I was optimistic about have all died in battle just now." Another leader said disdainfully.
"That kind of legendary thing is beyond our reach. Besides, you don't have to worry about dying in battle. Didn't the kings say that after dying in battle, you can enter the Octopus Man's exclusive particle world? There are endless fish to eat every day.
, Endless sunshine, endless sleep." The third octopus leader consoled him.
When the two octopus leaders in front heard this, they immediately looked at their companions as if they were mentally retarded.
"Idiot, the method we learned from humans is just to fool the lower octopuses, and you believe it yourself?" Leader A said disdainfully.
"Yeah, I don't believe in particle heaven anyway. If you die, you will die, just like sleeping." Leader B agreed.
"Keep your voice down, the supervisors are watching from behind." Leader C reminded.
The first two leaders suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly.
"If you don't have 8 claws, you don't deserve to be called a seaman!"
"There is only one kind of sea people in the ocean, and that is us octopus people!"
As sound waves spread through the sea water, the octopus men stepped up their offensive.
Having mastered the control particles, coupled with faith, and the bonus of a single race, their combat power is far greater than that of a community composed of these chaotic sea monsters.
Those chaotic sea monsters have completely lost their organization, and they only try to break out of the encirclement in an attempt to find a way to escape.
However, this is destined to be in vain. Once the organization is lost on the battlefield, these low- and middle-level sea monsters will face the situation of one more than one.
Those strong men who have the chance to escape will never stay to help other sea monsters resist.
They will only use their companions as stepping stones to escape, fighting for time and opportunities.
However, this approach will only push them into the abyss.
"It seems that it won't be long before we can take over another sea area and breed new octopus people." Leader A said happily.
"Oh, oh, I heard that the higher authorities seem to be introducing new measures to ensure that a certain number of other sea people survive in the sea area to prevent ecological imbalance." Leader B followed.
"Haha, ecological balance is for wild creatures. Alienated creatures will not cause ecological imbalance no matter how much they die. What the above really means is don't kill them all at once, leave some as leeks and cut them next time.
." Leader C explained.
"Oh, then it seems that in this siege, we still have to let go of a group of weak ones."
"That's right. You see, the supervisors have sent a signal and they can let go of some of the encirclement nets."
