Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

But Wu Chang vetoed several suggestions. Although he did not know why the boss refused to control the food supply, he strictly enforced Wu Chang’s will and did not control food and drinking water.

The result was that in just three days, the supplies that originally could last everyone on the ship for fifteen days were almost used up.

Wu Chang nonchalantly patted the secretary’s shoulder, ”Don’t worry about the food issue. With such a large expanse of ocean, how could we possibly lack food? Just wait.”

After speaking, Wu Chang went to the activity room on the seventh floor to get a fishing rod and leisurely walked toward the third-level deck.

Watching Wu Chang’s back, the secretary was completely numbed.

What’s the boss trying to do? He’s not going to fish to supplement the food supply, is he?

The secretary shuddered, suddenly realizing he had overlooked a very important factor: the boss’s mental health. The boss might have realized they couldn’t return to shore, had a mental breakdown, and gone mad.

No, I need to find Cyan Dragon and the others to discuss.

Wu Chang, carrying the fishing rod, came to the deck and found a fisherman sitting there, so he went over to join him.

”How’s the catch?”

The fisherman nodded at Wu Chang and then shook his head, saying, ”There aren’t many fish in this sea area, haven’t caught anything today.”

Wu Chang said, ”Let me try.”

Ten minutes later, Wu Chang extinguished the cigarette in his mouth and shook his head, ”This way of fishing won’t work.”

The fisherman laughed after hearing this and didn’t reply, secretly thinking the boss had no patience. After ten minutes without a catch, he was starting to resort to mysticism.

”In this sea area, to catch fish, you need to place a special bait to attract them.”

Wu Chang said as he pulled out a dagger and spoke to the fisherman, ”Lend me some blood.”

Fisherman: ”Huh?”

What? What does this mean? Fishing in the Silent Route Dungeon doesn’t require wearing a helmet; now it requires wearing an anti-stab vest?

Wu Chang repeated, ”Lend me some blood.”

The fisherman furrowed his brows, suspecting Wu Chang was conducting some twisted loyalty test. He hesitated for a moment, rolled up his sleeves, and held his left hand up to Wu Chang.

Wu Chang sliced a cut on the fisherman’s forearm with the dagger, forcefully flicked the fisherman’s arm, causing blood to splash onto the sea surface.

Then he baited the hook again and threw it toward the sea.

The fisherman cursed inwardly while bandaging his wound. Before he could wrap the gauze, Wu Chang had a catch.

”Haha, big catch!”

Wu Chang firmly planted his foot on the railing and used force from his waist, abdomen, legs, and arms to lift upwards, pulling a giant deep-sea fish over four meters long with blood-red eyes out of the ocean.

The deep-sea fish, full of vigor, struggled incessantly even as it was flung onto the deck. It had a mouth full of sharp teeth, sharp spines on its fins and dorsal fins; the air-tearing sound from the spikes during its struggle kept others from approaching.

Wu Chang pulled out a bat from behind him and swung at the fish’s head, instantly calming it down.

He waved to the approaching secretary and Cyan Dragon White Tiger and shouted, ”Take it to the kitchen, we’ll have a full-fish banquet tonight.”

Looking at the giant fish on the deck, the secretary was even more numbed than earlier; the boss wouldn’t really rely on fishing to feed everyone on the ship, would he?

Seeing the secretary and others taking away the monster fish, Wu Chang sat back at the fishing spot and turned to the fisherman.

This time, without needing to speak, the fisherman automatically undid the bandage and started splashing blood into the sea.

”Boss, how did you know this would catch fish?”

Wu Chang shrugged, ”The previous captain told me; without pain, there’s no gain.”

As he spoke, Wu Chang’s hook moved again. When he lifted the hook, this time he caught a person.

Oh dear, I’ve hooked Blood Wolf.

The Blood Wolf on the deck had already returned to human form. His condition was terrible, with not just penetrating injuries and burns, but many bite marks where he was torn apart.

Apart from physical injuries, Blood Wolf’s mental state was also very unstable. Wu Chang could tell that Blood Wolf’s Inspiration Value had increased significantly, and he was on the verge of losing control.

If guessed correctly, Blood Wolf, to evade the Secret Ceremony Master’s pursuit last night, escaped into the sea floor and won the lottery, being influenced by something from the deep sea bottom.

That’s it, this kind of player with strong physical regeneration abilities, difficult to be physically destroyed, usually has mental and willpower weaknesses.

Being affected by the deep sea things yet caught alive, he’s quite lucky.

The soul inside the fisherman’s body was actually Ma Jia from the Apocalypse Force, who modified the Earthly Divine Kingdom. When he saw Blood Wolf being caught, he initially showed a solemn expression, then quickly calmed down and asked in confusion:

”Is he a passenger on the ship?”

Now’s not the time to expose the fisherman; Wu Chang said: ”Don’t worry about him, I’ll arrange someone to take care of him.”

Tick.

A raindrop fell from the sky, hitting Wu Chang’s face. He lifted his head and found that unknowingly, the sky above was already overcast with clouds.

”It’s going to rain.”

The ocean’s weather is just like a child’s face, changing at a moment’s notice.

Half an hour ago, the skies were clear, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a stormy weather.

The dark clouds over the sea looked as if the sky had collapsed, descending close to the sea surface.

Gale, heavy rain, thunder, giant waves, combined with the black-gray sea surface, presented an apocalyptic scene.

In such extreme weather, even the excellent followers of the New Cosmos Sect couldn’t continue praying on the deck and had to move indoors.

But the New Cosmos Sect turned misfortune into a blessing. Although the prayer was interrupted due to moving locations and had to start anew, the harsh weather at sea plunged the passengers into severe anxiety, prompting them to join the New Cosmos Sect in prayer seeking inner peace.
