Chapter 92: Lost Song of the Deep (19)


The gentle tone of his voice carried an undeniable strength.


The howling wind, with its icy sea water and biting coldness, swept into the room, almost blowing people away.


Qin Mubai's upright figure stood in the rain, his shirt wet, revealing the smooth and solid lines of his back.


In a moment, the storm seemed to have become his companion.


Ye Nianchu stood at the back, waiting to hand over the towel she had just taken out from the room.


"It's too late." Qin Mubai casually wiped his hair.


With the speed of this Ghost Ship, there was no way for the Goni to avoid it.


Even if there were, the sirens on the ship would not let them avoid it.


That's not the worst of it.


The worst part is that the first thing the ship will hit is where they are now.


Ye Nianchu also understood this. "Change your clothes first, then we’ll move positions."


She pushed Qin Mubai into the room.


The storm-tossed Ghost Ship came charging through at suicidal speed.


Once the two ships collided, even if the Goni was of good quality and didn't sink, the sirens would still come up the line.


Who would have thought that a half-man, half-fish siren could drive a boat?


If this skill and speed were captured and used for transportation, it would be incredibly profitable. Capitalists would weep at the sight of it.


The figure of the Ghost Ship was gradually revealed in the darkness of the night.


Even in this noisy environment, the sound of gears turning and chains rattling was eerily clear and chilling.


Others also spotted the old ship in the stormy seas.


Before Ye Nianchu and Qin Mubai left the room, the other three players ran out with their bags in a panic.


The Ghost Ship was coming from the left, and everyone was going in the opposite direction.


There was no order on the cruise ship, and the suddenness of the incident made the scene particularly chaotic, with many people falling and clamoring for help.


Everyone was so preoccupied that no one stopped to help those who had fallen.


Ye Nianchu silently prepared for the worst in her heart.


To everyone's surprise, the Ghost Ship accelerated again as it approached the Goni ship, and in an unimaginable way, went right through it.


The ice-cold breath of a ten-thousand-foot undersea ravine swept in.


In a flash, everyone was shaken.


After a moment of dizziness, the only thing left in the air was the strong smell of seawater.


Where was the Ghost Ship?


It was like a fleeting nightmare.


But along with the Ghost Ship, people had also been taken from the cruise ship.


The Ghost Ship had taken them.


The light revealed the cold, empty surroundings, and the emotions welling up in Qin Mubai’s eyes were cold to the bone.


Unlike the others, he headed straight for the most dangerous deck.


Long legs and wide strides, with a biting hostility.


The siren that had just surfaced seemed to sense the terrifying aura emanating from him, and fear flashed in its green eyes, even making it retreat two steps.


Qin Mubai wrinkled his eyebrows and slammed the siren's neck into the ground, his hand cold and hard.


"Where is that ship?"


The creature understood human speech.


The siren struggled with its eyes wide open, its mouth full of sharp teeth exposed, making a broken, weak sound with difficulty.


The person in front of it was not affected in any way.


The rain fell like a river of silver, the lights shifted, and the deck glistened with rainwater.


The knife in Qin Mubai's hand glowed with a bloodthirsty cold light, but his actions were slow and deliberate, reserved to the extreme. His calm eyes were tinged with a hostility colder than the lightless abyss.

Chapter 2 (Peachland)

Chapter 2 "It's not impossible," the man across from her said, picking up some food with his chopsticks. "The system doesn’t reveal anything, and there's no response when we ask." Deng Lan agreed. She had been watching a drama at home, and then, in a blink, she was suddenly in this game. She couldn’t quit; it felt like a bad deal she had no choice but to accept. She had never seen a game this awful. Luckily, she was fortunate. When she met Ding Qi, another new player, Deng Lan was relieved to finally find a teammate. Being alone in the game was scarier than being pulled into it. "Why don’t we stay near the town exit and, on the sixth day, leave right away at dawn?" Deng Lan suggested. A hint of sarcasm flashed in Ding Qi’s eyes, but he didn’t show it. He seriously analyzed, "I think the game won’t let us pass that easily. The closer we get to the exit, the more dangerous it might be." Deng Lan didn’t know what Ding Qi was thinking, but hi

Max-Level Big Shot in the Survival Game

When Ye Nianchu is brought back into the game as a newbie, her bad luck seems to follow her everywhere. As she searches for clues, she heads straight for the BOSS. But stockpiling supplies turns into a crisis as she struggles on the way. "This game is too hard," she mutters. "Maybe all my luck was used up just meeting Qin Mubai." When they first meet, Ye Nianchu sees the boy with a paintbrush and thinks, "This NPC is really good-looking." Later, though, the boy holds a craft knife like a killer, but his smile is both kind and harmless. "Others are just trying to survive," she thinks. "He’s just playing a game. What kind of game is this? Can I report him for cheating?" In this game, players face a peaceful town that suddenly becomes a dangerous apocalypse, songs from the deep sea, a train that disappears mysteriously, a strange rainforest, and a weird sanatorium. "Danger keeps coming. Players either finish tasks to leave or die in t

Chapter 5 (Peachland)

Chapter 5 There were meals available at the B&B, but of course, they cost extra. After dinner, Ye Nianchu went up to the public terrace. From there, she could see the entire town at a glance. Smoke rose from the chimneys along the riverbank, and her gaze fell on the Huanzhen River. On the sixth day, if she couldn't leave this place, the mission would fail. The first day was almost over, and she didn’t have much time left to figure out how to pass the game. As the wind blew through the mountains, lifting her hair and the hem of her clothes, she suddenly noticed a figure. On the other side of the terrace, in front of an easel, sat a young man. He was tall and had a handsome, upright figure. His face was like it had been chiseled by a master sculptor. Pale skin, delicate features—he looked like a portrait come to life. Even from a distance, Ye Nianchu found it hard to look away. The boy held a paintbrush in his hand. His fingers were long and elegant. His clean, gentle appearance

Chapter 11 (Peachland)

Chapter 11 Some people, curious about the scene, came closer and quickly felt sick. The thought that the fish they had eaten for a midnight snack last night might have come from this river only made their fear worse. "I never want to eat fish again," someone said, shuddering. Nearby, several tourists who had stayed at the same B&B as the deceased, along with the B&B owner, stood together, looking very worried. The person they had shared a meal with just yesterday was now dead. "I saw Deng Lan last night; how could this happen?" Zhou Yun said, trembling. "Boss, did Deng Lan leave the B&B last night?" someone asked. The B&B was small, run by the owner herself, with no other staff except for a cleaning lady. The owner usually stayed at the front desk until locking up for the night before going to bed. The owner, looking pale and nervous, hesitated before answering, "I—I don't know. I didn’t pay much attention." The owner knew Den

Chapter 6 (Peachland)

Chapter 6 "As for the early clearance, those who got their qualification today might be S-ranked players," Wang Hai said. Wang Hai was still searching for someone, so he couldn’t give more details. Liang Zuo and Zhou Wen felt anxious but tried to hide it. They were beginning to think Wang Hai, who bragged about being a top player, seemed more like a con artist. "You newbies don’t know anything," Wang Hai said, glancing at them. "Since we're in the same game, let me give you a tip. For newbies like you, besides completing the quests, you should avoid top S-ranked players." "If you meet someone else, you might get lucky and clear the game with them. But if you run into one particular player, you’d better be careful." "Who?" Liang Zuo asked, leaning in. "We don’t know his name, but his last name is Qin. He’s an S-ranked big shot. It’s said that in one game round, almost everyone died, not because of the game, but because of him. T
