Chapter 506: Chapter 313: This is, Heavenly Punishment!
As everyone knows,
Romance of the Three Kingdoms features a character named Zhao Yun with a passive skill called "Yun’s Anger."
When overcome by Yun’s Anger, Zhao Yun is vastly different from his usual self.
Basically, no one who triggers this skill lives to tell the tale.
In a state of great fury, Yun could mow down his enemies with ease.
And so could Chen Yun.
Setting aside his pre-evolutionary irritation before his first slumber evolution,
this was the first time he had flown into such a righteous rage since his transformation into a non-human.
Although those harmed were not friends or family,
and weren’t even human,
in some sense, the orca’s existence meant more to Chen Yun than mere friendship.
After all, it had received the Super-visual Range Position Perception Token as a gift from him, signifying his approval.
Now, with the orca injured,
Chen Yun felt he simply couldn’t stand by and do nothing.
Once he might have claimed a lack of ability, but not anymore.
He possessed a unique power unmatched on this planet.
As one who increasingly saw himself as the planetary governor, he knew it was time to clean house and purge the world’s filth.
Therefore,
his out-of-body consciousness did not leave the ocean area.
Instead, it remained within the shattered Stone Trident, waiting for the group who had harmed the orca to return with their ship.
Sunlight penetrated the water’s surface, casting columns of light that danced in the clear sea.
The surroundings were silent, save for the occasional sound of waves and distant calls of seabirds, leaving almost no other noise.
In such an environment, time seemed to slow and blur, with each minute, each second stretched out and made exceedingly precious.
...
Meanwhile, at the same time,
a large ship was approaching the area.
The people on board were chatting and laughing, clearly excited about their imminent catch.
Under the sunlight, the ship was particularly noticeable, its deck cluttered with an assortment of equipment and tools, indicative of a professional work vessel.
Huge net bags hung from both sides of the ship, meticulously designed to capture large marine animals. The ship was fitted with various advanced detection instruments to locate deep-sea targets.
The crew wore uniform work clothes and hard hats, some with waterproof walkie-talkies around their necks.
Their faces were lit with expectant smiles, their eyes alight with greed.
These men were of varying ages, but most appeared energetic, their hands rough and strong from long hours of work.
The Captain was a seasoned veteran, with a look in his eye that spoke both of deep respect for the ocean and desire for riches.
He stood in the cockpit, focused intently on the radar screen, occasionally adjusting the course to ensure the ship arrived precisely at its destination.
A group of young technicians responsible for operating various high-tech pieces of equipment concentrated on the screen data before them, occasionally exchanging thoughts on how to optimize their upcoming salvage strategy.
The ordinary crewmembers were the ship’s manual labor, tasked with the specific job of fishing.
Although some felt guilty about the act, they were more concerned about their wages and families. Their conversations were cheerful and light, discussing celebration plans after the catch; mentions of recent news about wildlife protection were quickly sidelined by their peers.
Everyone continued to revel in the thought of their coming bounty.
Each person was quietly calculating how much they’d earn from this operation, blissfully unaware of the impending danger.
A communication came through in the cockpit.
The Captain had a brief talk with his superiors.
His voice revealed a hint of pride, "We’re about to reach the designated area, everything’s ready."
"Good, Captain. This catch is crucial. Do well, and you’ll receive a handsome reward after the mission."
"Furthermore, after this you can relax at one of our affiliated leisure facilities. You know, that special place where only our core members have access to those services."
The Captain’s lips curled into a slight smile at this,
"That would be wonderful, I could certainly use some time to unwind."
He longed for the decadent lives of those above.
That place of pleasure specifically mentioned by those up top must be something a peasant fisherman from Japan like him couldn’t even imagine.
He had joined the Black Tide Alliance for the money.
And if money meant pleasure,
then a visit to the place mentioned by his superiors was definitely worthwhile.
"Of course, you’ve made significant contributions to the organization. If you’re interested, we can offer you a chance to advance. We have some vacancies in the Black Tide Alliance hierarchy."
Upon hearing this,
the Captain’s breathing quickened suddenly.
An opportunity for advancement, naturally, would be the best reward.
The Captain strove to control his excitement, making his voice sound calm, "Thank you for the proposition, I’ll certainly consider it. For now, though, let’s get this mission completed successfully."
After the conversation, the Captain returned to the cockpit, anticipation of what the future might hold flickering in his eyes.
If he could really climb higher in the Black Tide Alliance,
it would pretty much mean he had made it.
His ambition to ascend from his fishing village roots, to reach this point, could mostly be considered achieved.
