#290 - Chapter 290 Cenxi Level
#290 - Chapter 290 Cenxi Level
Seeing this message, Cenxi stopped eating her skewers and drinking her beverage, immediately picking up her wristband and saying:
[Isn't being eliminated the same as passing? Why bother with a checkpoint? Do they even have time to set one up?]
If there were another checkpoint, she'd have to go out and be a safety officer, how tiring.
Besides, luck is also a kind of strength, right? Being eliminated is being eliminated, just consider it a pass, wouldn't that be nice?
In a few seconds, the wristband displayed an instruction:
[Checkpoint drawn: Please, safety officer, take action and catch them off guard!]
Cenxi's eyes widened as she read the message.
There's actually a checkpoint like this, how absurd.
Not only does she have to be a safety officer, but she also has to be a safety hazard, right?
Because this was Cenxi's first time being a safety officer, she didn't know the random checkpoint library.
If she told Wen Jing the content of this checkpoint, she would realize that this checkpoint wasn't even in the random draw pool.
But she didn't.
In her mind, the official high-tech was completely correct. Having never experienced telecom fraud, she wouldn't doubt its accuracy.
Holding the wristband, Cenxi walked to the safe house at the stern of the ship.
She looked at Xiao Pi and Kabi, who were playing games inside, picking her teeth with the steel skewer left over from the grilled skewers, pondering how to take action that would be both effortless and considered contributing.
Freeze all the surrounding sea? Make them manually chisel ice to move the ship?
No, no, that would waste too much time. It would be bad if Wen Jing's team caught up.
Summon lightning from the sky?
No, no, lightning can easily kill people. If she couldn't control it, she would really be a safety hazard.
Elements like fire, earth, and metal shouldn't appear on the sea either.
Then, use water and wind?
A massive storm sounds fiercer and safer.
And it has high expandability. She could add a tornado, katabatic wind, tsunami, waterspout, or towering sea current on top of it. Just thinking about it is exciting.
It's been a long time since she's been on a roller coaster.
Roller coaster ship, no, roller water ship is about the same, it should be equally exciting.
Cenxi remembered when Captain Hong took them to the amusement park when they graduated. Although those exciting projects weren't very exciting for her, the feeling of being with good friends was very comfortable.
She hasn't played with Wen Jing yet.
Wen Jing, that's right, this time she has to win against Wen Jing!
Cenxi almost forgot her original intention as a safety officer—to win against Wen Jing!
Then... use that move!
Qi Jing and Tan Zuoyin, who were firing cannons in front, stopped.
Because they discovered that the radar monitoring system was broken. Clearly, there was a ten-meter-wide stone far ahead, but the radar didn't detect it.
Could it be that the random checkpoint is coming?
Qi Jing subconsciously prepared to notify Yan Cheng and the others, but he turned his head and thought that they were busy with their own things.
Let this responsible captain help you through this checkpoint.
Don't worry and have fun, leave the rest to me!
As for the competition? Who would know if I didn't say anything? Hehe.
Besides, the premise of not taking action is that they are not in danger. He had a hunch that this danger was quite big, so it could be considered a good time to act.
But Qi Jing waited for more than ten seconds and didn't see any creatures approaching.
His Observation Haki scanned around, only the stone ahead had traces of being bombarded by cannons and a pool of blue blood. There was no danger at all.
Could it be?
There's something wrong with this blue blood?
"Hold your breath!"
Qi Jing only reminded Tan Zuoyin to hold her breath. With their ship speed, it wouldn't take long to pass this stone, so there was no need to notify Yan Cheng below.
"Where's the danger?" Tan Zuoyin walked over, wearing the Xingtian armor.
Qi Jing put on the diving suit helmet and said:
"I suspect there's something wrong with that stone, but there's only a bit of blue blood around it, no creatures."
If he wasn't mistaken, the traces of the explosion should be what they just did, but the stone didn't have a single trace of being damaged, which was a bit strange.
"Blue blood?"
Tan Zuoyin looked towards the stone ahead.
The thick night couldn't block their vision at all. The scattered blood on the big stone came into her view.
"Dark blue blood is generally possessed by some deep-sea alien beasts. These creatures only exist in the C-different world, such as Aquamarine Star, Sea Eagle Fish, Sea Human Demons, etc., but I haven't heard that their blood is poisonous?"
Could it be a kind of intelligent alien race?
No, no, this is the safe zone of the C-different dimensional gate, these things shouldn't appear.
"Zhaoyin, do you feel that our ship is rising?"
Qi Jing always felt that he had a slight sense of weightlessness, but it was very slight, maybe it was an illusion.
But based on his experience of reading so many novels over the years, any illusion is real!
Illusions often represent crisis and carelessness. Something is bound to happen if you ignore it.
"Let me see."
When this Xingtian armor was being researched by the institute, Qi Jing asked them to install an advanced AI inside, which could record information and ask questions at any time.
Tan Zuoyin called up the current altitude, and sure enough, its data was steadily rising.
"Yeah, our ship is slowly rising, and so is the sea level."
"Could it be that the tide is rising? Or is there a huge island-shaped creature floating to the surface underneath?"
Qi Jing concentrated his Observation Haki and looked vertically downwards.
But there was no shadow of any huge creatures within this kilometer. At most, there were a few fanged-head fish eating small fish.
It can't be that the creature is 10,000 miles under the sea, right?
"I'll go call Kabi to prepare to take the boat back at any time."
No matter how big the crisis is, Qi Jing can guarantee that he can survive. It's fine if the remaining people and ships are put into the space.
When he walked to the safe house at the stern of the ship, he saw Teacher Cenxi sitting here with her back to him, so he greeted her.
But Cenxi didn't respond.
Huh?
Ignoring people? Could it be that she's secretly eating again?
Qi Jing walked over and saw that Cenxi was closing her eyes and not moving.
Is this meditating? Cultivating? Or is she asleep?
Whatever, let Kabi do the important work.
Just as Qi Jing turned his head, he heard Cenxi's voice coming from behind:
"I'm preparing a checkpoint for you, wait to ride the free ride."
"Ah, what?"
"The checkpoint you were notified about was just blown up, so I was asked to prepare a new one myself, so I created a big wave, look."
Qi Jing looked in the direction Cenxi was pointing and found that a line had appeared behind them, a line that ran from left to right, dividing the sea and sky!
"This is the big wave you made?"
"Yeah, big, right?"
Cenxi proudly raised her head and said:
"This is my first time doing this, how is it? As long as you ride this wave, you can reach the finish line in less than two days, am I smart?"
This way, she would both set up a checkpoint and win against Wen Jing, killing two birds with one stone!
Just thinking about being ahead of Wen Jing for several days, Cenxi laughed.
She's not as stupid as the captain said at all. When she gets back, she'll let her see her intelligence and talent, and see if she dares to laugh at her again.
"Smart."
Qi Jing really didn't expect things to be like this.
It's neither poisonous blood nor a super-giant creature, but Cenxi wanted to use her right to set up checkpoints at will to create a big wave.
But Teacher Cen doesn't seem to have considered our ship-driving skills. It's still unknown whether we'll be riding the waves or being overturned by them.
