Global Flood: I Survive on Duckweed

"And here, I brought this for you!" Ren Yuanyang tossed a phone over.

Hearing this, Jin Ziyu’s eyes lit up, but she continued to stuff the crispy noodles in her hand into her mouth.

Although she didn’t use her hands to catch it, the phone hovered steadily in front of her.

’Being an Evolver is great. I really need to find a way to get my hands on that licorice!’ Ren Yuanyang thought, watching Jin Ziyu effortlessly make the phone hover in mid-air. It was impossible not to be envious.

He had already planted a bomb in the hearts of the Dawn Base members. He just didn’t know when it would go off, and whether the licorice would still be there when it did.

Either way, he had to go check it out.

"Stop eating and open your phone already! I need to see the location of the Dawn Base!" Ren Yuanyang urged impatiently.

The unknown app on the phone could only be opened by its owner.

Jin Ziyu immediately dumped the rest of the crispy noodles from the bag into her mouth, then grabbed the phone and opened the app, chewing with a loud CRUNCH, CRUNCH.

"It’s right here. When I was escaping from the Dawn Base, I made sure to look at the map," Jin Ziyu said with absolute certainty, swallowing her mouthful of noodles and pointing to a spot on the map.

Si Youqin, who was standing to the side, also nodded. "That’s right. I glanced at the map back then, and that’s definitely the location. Thinking about it now, we really have Ziyu to thank for choosing to head this way. Otherwise, we never would have met the Boss and ended up with such a happy life!"

"I knew charging into the Seventh-level Wind Sea Region was the right move!" Jin Ziyu said, looking smug.

"Just a stroke of dumb luck," Qin Haonan couldn’t help but mutter.

His voice wasn’t loud, but Jin Ziyu heard him loud and clear.

"What did you say, you little brat!" Jin Ziyu fumed, about to step forward, but Si Youqin quickly pulled her back.

Qin Haonan scoffed and retorted, "Did you know our base was here in the Seventh-level Wind Sea Region from the beginning?"

"Of course not," Jin Ziyu replied.

"If you didn’t know, then it was just a guess. So I wasn’t wrong, was I?" Qin Haonan said, spreading his hands.

"You..."

Jin Ziyu was clearly no match for Qin Haonan, who had been knocked around by the real world.

"Alright, the fact that they drifted near us was indeed a result of Jin Ziyu’s decision. Whether it was a lucky guess or not, the outcome proves it was the right one," Ren Yuanyang said, coming to her rescue. At the same time, he shot a look at Qin Haonan, stopping him from saying anything more.

Qin Haonan could only purse his lips and stay quiet.

"Hmph. The Boss is still the best!" Jin Ziyu wrinkled her nose at Qin Haonan and snorted.

Ren Yuanyang looked at the Dawn Base’s location on the map and said, "It’s not too far from us."

"Boss, should we head over and check out the situation?" Qin Haonan asked.

"We definitely need to make a trip," Ren Yuanyang nodded slightly. "But besides reconnaissance, I need you to add some fuel to the fire."

"Add fuel to the fire?" Qin Haonan looked at Ren Yuanyang in confusion.

Ren Yuanyang explained, "The mission I just posted was only on the regional channel. How many people at the Dawn Base do you think can actually see it?"

Qin Haonan was taken aback for a moment, then he immediately understood.

"Oh, I get it! The Dawn Base must have confiscated most people’s phones. So even though we posted the mission in the regional channel, only the few who still have their phones can see it!"

Ren Yuanyang nodded slightly. "Exactly. So we need to add more fuel to the fire and do some more advertising."

"How do we advertise?" Qin Haonan’s brow furrowed.

"Is that giant loudspeaker on your speedboat just for decoration?" Ren Yuanyang retorted, raising an eyebrow.

Qin Haonan got it instantly. "I understand, Boss. Leave it to me! I guarantee every single person at the Dawn Base will hear the message!"

The only vessel they could take out was the military speedboat, and the loudspeaker on it was quite powerful.

After all, military speedboats often used them to hail and warn off foreign vessels during patrol missions.

"However, this mission is still extremely dangerous," Ren Yuanyang reminded him in a serious tone, seeing how excited Qin Haonan was. "If they spot you, they’ll definitely send out their own speedboats to chase you off."

"It’s fine. My piloting skills are more than good enough," Qin Haonan said, unconcerned.

"It doesn’t matter how good your skills are. If their boats are faster than yours, they’ll still catch you," Ren Yuanyang said, shaking his head. "Many speedboats are designed for lightness and speed, making them faster than a military vessel."

Qin Haonan paused, his brow furrowing in thought.

"Hey, little brat. Call me ’Big Sister,’ and I’ll go with you. I can’t guarantee I can beat them, but I can definitely protect you!" Jin Ziyu said smugly, having understood the details of his mission.

"Tch, in your dreams!" Qin Haonan refused flatly.

"Fine, don’t call me it. I can’t be bothered to go, then!" Jin Ziyu retorted, pouting.

Ren Yuanyang was already calculating things in his head. If Jin Ziyu, a Gold-Type Evolver, went with him, Qin Haonan’s safety would be more or less guaranteed.

The weapons they possessed were likely light, metal-based firearms. A cruise ship wouldn’t have heavy weaponry.

A Gold-Type Evolver could still block attacks from light firearms.

Plus, the military speedboat was certainly tougher than the small boats accompanying the Dawn Cruise. With all that, it seemed like a solid plan.

"Jin Ziyu has a point. She’ll go with you on this mission," Ren Yuanyang announced.

"Huh? No way, Boss. Are you serious?" Qin Haonan’s eyes widened.

Jin Ziyu was also taken aback for a second. She shook her head and replied, "I’m not going. I have no interest in going on a mission with some little brat!"
