Chapter 11:
The Flying Snake is driven by greed.
Although the whale hunting was successful and the harvest was fruitful, there was not much joy on the monster hunting ship.
There was low pressure on the deck, and the atmosphere among the crew was extremely gloomy.
Su Ye stood in the middle of the crowd, feeling sad.
He completely understands this sentiment.
There is no other reason.
The casualties are too great!
Afterwards, statistics showed that this time the demon hunt resulted in direct deaths, as well as missing crew members who were neither alive nor dead.
In total, there are nine people in total!
In this vast sea, missing is basically equivalent to death.
Before today, only six people had died during the entire voyage of the Flying Snake!
"It's more than doubled..." Su Ye glanced around and couldn't help but be speechless.
What's more, the sacrifices of these nine people were completely avoidable!
The Flying Snake had already decided to return and stop hunting monsters.
And because of Captain Luo Qingjun's insistence, the number of casualties increased dramatically!
"It was fine, why did you mess with that whale?"
"If it hadn't been for the first mate's desperate fight, I don't know how many more people would have died..." "
This disaster almost killed us all!"
Even though the captain Luo Qingjun Nearby, the crew still couldn't stop their angry words.
As for this complaint, Luo Qingjun... had no reaction at all.
The captain is quite lucky.
Although the spirit boat was capsized by a gray whale, several people on board died.
But apart from choking on some water, he himself was fine.
At this time, Luo Qingjun was wrapped in a cotton bath towel and sitting on the chair brought by the steward.
His eyes were blank and his body was trembling.
His face still had the blue color after falling into the water and being cold, making it look even more sickly and pale.
He looked like Luther, whose brain was temporarily shut down after being severely beaten by the cruel iron fist of reality.
All the energy and energy have been drained!
"I still like the way you were high-spirited and unruly just now..." Su Ye cursed.
If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?
Captain Luo Qingjun's idle reflection directly caused the Flying Snake to fall into a chaotic state without a leader.
After the body of the gray whale was dragged onto the ship, it was left on the deck without anyone handling it.
Manager Luo wanted to let the crew work and dispose of the whale monster's body, but the crew spat back mercilessly.
"Get out! If you want to do it, you can do it, I won't do it
anyway!" After a narrow escape, the crew members were very aggressive!
Manager Luo did not dare to cause public outrage, so he could only retreat angrily. He called several crew members from the Luo family to preliminarily decompose the body of the gray whale.
At this time, a group of crew members were wandering around on the deck with nothing to do, calling the captain useless.
Su Ye glanced over, his heart condensed.
'The crew's mental state is obviously wrong. '
But... no one came to stop it.
In other words, no one can stop it!
captain?
Gang retreated dejectedly to the upper cabin to lick his wounds.
Moreover, even if he spoke, the effect would be limited based on his poor decision-making and poor performance during the whale hunt.
First officer Luo Jing...
he does have this prestige.
Su Ye was certain that if Luo Jing spoke up, the chaotic state of the Flying Snake could be stopped.
It's a pity...
First mate Luo Jing is currently being rescued.
Is it completely free to kill a giant ocean beast like the gray whale?
The gray whale's final struggle to fight back also caused serious damage to him!
Su Ye had seen the rescued first mate Luo Jing. It was so miserable...
The hands holding the dazzling spirit gun were severely fractured!
In addition, there were many bruises and abrasions all over his body.
Coupled with severe pain, blood loss, falling into the water, and multiple negative conditions superimposed, he is still unconscious with weak vital signs!
'That's not good...'
'With the absence of the captain and first mate, the order on the Flying Serpent is disintegrating...' '
Even... no one even did anything to appease the crew? Su Ye frowned slightly and his heart sank.
Ocean-going ships are originally on the fringes of human society.
There is no law at all!
Order can only be maintained by relying entirely on a strict hierarchy and forceful pressure from the management.
'And no matter how strict the hierarchy is, the punishment it brings cannot exceed death. '
'After the shocking casualties caused by whale hunting, the deterrence of the system is obviously not as good as before...' '
As for the force, after the first mate Luo Jing, the only sixth-level Qi refining master, was seriously injured, it has obviously become insufficient. . Su
Ye leaned against the mast, feeling the salty sea breeze, and thinking about it.
'The only good thing is that they are about to dock, and the captain will not be able to drive them to risk their lives again. '
'In two months at most, if we can separate the spirit stones and go home separately, the worst case scenario shouldn't happen...'
Su Ye touched his chin.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of surprise on the deck.
"Steward, there is spermaceti oil, quite a lot!"
The crew member of the Luo family who was dealing with the gray whale had a happy face and reported to Steward Luo as if he was offering a treasure.
The crew members on the deck couldn't help but stop and look sideways after hearing this.
Skeleton oil can be used to make a variety of incense that is beneficial to high-level monks and is valuable!
However, seeing this scene, Su Ye's originally relaxed mood suddenly tightened.
'No, I got distracted! '
His previous estimate ignored the existence of gray whales!
This first-level high-grade whale monster, after being skinned and broken into eight pieces, can bring in at least two to three thousand spiritual stones!
Coupled with the harvest of monster fish accumulated by the monster hunting ship itself...
a sum of more than 5,000, close to 6,000 spirit stones, and there is no need to worry about selling rare goods!
"Hiss..." Su Ye took a breath of cold air.
You know, according to the memory of the original owner, the auction price of a Foundation Establishment Pill is often only 10,000 to 12,000 spirit stones!
And the current Flying Snake is equivalent to having half a Foundation Establishment Pill!
This is a huge amount of wealth that can make even the foundation-building monks excited!
Su Ye glanced over and saw that many of the crew members on the deck looked a little strange in their manners.
And...it's not just them?
Even Su Ye himself felt a burst of greed in his heart when he suddenly heard it, and he couldn't get rid of it!
Such a huge amount of wealth, if it can be disposed of safely.
The cultivation resources he received in exchange were enough for him to successfully cultivate to the ninth level of Qi refining before he was forty years old!
It is said that there is a sixty-year limit for foundation building. Being able to refine Qi to perfection before the age of forty means that there is a chance to attack foundation building!
And once the foundation is successfully established, not only the mana will be greatly improved, but also the life span of 240 years will be enjoyed!
"Huh..." Su Ye took a deep breath.
'calm! '
Captain Luo Qingjun just demonstrated the consequences of being driven by greed!
'I have panel powers, so I don't need to take such risks. Su
Ye comforted himself so much that he suppressed the greed in his heart.
Although the spirit stone is good, the safety of your own life is the most important thing!
However, Su Ye couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he looked at the other crew members on the deck.
If he can think of it, so can others!
Su Ye quickly walked to Zhao Li, who was wandering around ignorantly, and whispered.
"Hurry back to the cabin. Don't hang out if you have nothing to do these days."
"Brother Su?"
"Don't ask too many questions, just listen to me."
Su Ye persuaded Zhao Li to go away.
Immediately, he also returned to his room.
After closing the door tightly, Su Ye sat on the bed, stroking the blood-drinking spear, his eyes flashing.
He knew very well that in this lawless land, there was a distant sea.
Once order breaks down, the Flying Snake will instantly become a hell on earth that kills each other!
