Chapter 74: Opening Five Cards, Ideal State Cruise Ship! (Seeking continued readership)
Today was a day of bountiful harvest.
The harvesting process was arduous and quite taxing on the back.
However, Lu Zheng’s body was now strong enough to punch an elephant to death, and the Strengthening Pill continued to take effect, allowing him to help six girls complete their life role transformations in a row.
“Ding! Successfully protected Yan Chenchen, obtained one Basic Material Card!”
“Ding! Successfully protected Ding Nannan, obtained one Basic Material Card!”
“Ding! Successfully protected Wen Wanqing, obtained one Basic Material Card!”
“Ding! Successfully protected Teng Qiuyan, obtained one Advanced Material Card!”
“Ding! Successfully protected Qiao Sijia, obtained one Advanced Material Card!”
“Item: Seafood Feast”
“Type: Basic Material Card”
“Effect: Can obtain unlimited servings of a seafood feast.”
The term “seafood feast” here was very broad, including everything from large lobsters to small crayfish, as well as shark fin, abalone, hairtail, and all sorts of other aquatic products.
Any dish that could be named could be materialized through this Material Card.
This would make the dining table even richer.
The quality of life would once again improve.
“Item: Seasoning Gift Pack”
“Type: Basic Material Card”
“Effect: Can obtain unlimited servings of a seasoning gift pack.”
This surprised Lu Zheng a bit.
He himself ate ready-made food, so what was the point of so many seasonings?
But after seeing things like chili sauce included, he understood.
The items in this card could help improve the taste.
After all, everyone had different requirements for the saltiness of each dish, and the taste of the same dish from the Material Card was fixed.
With these seasonings, one could customize the flavor they wanted to eat.
“Item: Premium Skewers and Fried Skewers Combo”
“Type: Basic Material Card”
“Effect: Can obtain unlimited servings of a premium skewers and fried skewers combo.”
This was another excellent delicacy.
Grilled lamb skewers were a classic, and besides that, everything could be grilled or fried, so with this combo, it was almost like one could eat any dish.
There was even grilled ice!
The Basic Material Cards were just an appetizer; Lu Zheng was more interested in the two Advanced Material Cards.
Currently, the advanced materials he had drawn included revolvers, luxury RVs, diesel, assault rifles, rocket launchers, and helicopters.
He was very much looking forward to this harvest.
“Item: Full Series of Luxury Cruise Ships”
“Type: Advanced Material Card”
“Effect: Can obtain one unlimited full series of luxury cruise ships.”
The full series of cruise ships, from small river cruise ships to large cruise ships comparable to aircraft carriers, had everything one could imagine.
Lu Zheng already had an RV for land use and a helicopter for air use; now he also had transportation for water.
Moreover, a super-large luxury cruise ship could completely serve as a mobile castle.
Lu Zheng took a look; the largest cruise ship in this card was called the ‘Ideal State,’ with a total tonnage of 300,000 tons.
It was nuclear-powered and had a top speed comparable to a cruiser.
It could carry 12,000 people, including 3,000 crew members and 9,000 passengers.
There were over 4,000 guest rooms, including family suites, presidential suites, slide rooms, and various other innovative room types.
It was equipped with an entertainment city, a ten-deck-high slide, a climbing wall, and a wave pool.
It had an indoor Central Park, all with real, vibrant plants, where one could eat fresh fruits.
There were also shopping centers, a water theater, and other entertainment facilities.
There were twenty-two swimming pools alone, thirty restaurants, ten bars, and also a theater, a ballroom, a golf course, and so on.
It was completely an independent mini-society.
After just a quick look, Lu Zheng felt that it must be even more comfortable than inside the Jinge Building.
But the prerequisite was that he needed to recruit enough service personnel.
A large cruise ship required many people to operate.
Of the three thousand crew members, most were service personnel, but quite a few were also responsible for navigation.
He could find an opportunity to recruit a group of people and start his ocean gaming life.
But not now.
Lu Zheng looked at the last card.
“Item: Full Series of Exquisite Cold Weapons”
“Type: Advanced Material Card”
“Effect: Can obtain one unlimited set of a full series of exquisite cold weapons.”
The so-called exquisite cold weapons here referred to blades made of high-strength titanium alloy steel, considered the pinnacle of modern cold weapon industrial products, each worth tens of thousands to even millions.
Swords, spears, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, forks, as well as nunchaku, nine-section whips, and eighteen kinds of weapons, everything was available.
Lu Zheng happened to need a good sword to learn the Sword Control Technique, and this Material Card appeared at just the right time!
With an unlimited supply of swords, one day he would be able to perform the legendary immortal technique of Myriad Swords Returning to One.
Just ten thousand swords, that’s all.
All six cards were opened, and it was already the morning of the second day.
The RV door was knocked, and Lu Zheng stepped out, looking at Yin Xinyao and asking,
“What’s the matter?”
Yin Xinyao saw that Lu Zheng had not been drained and was still full of vigor, which made her sigh in relief.
Then she quickly said,
“Just now, Chief sent a message saying that new monsters have been discovered, including a Fourth-tier existence, and he wants you to come for a meeting as soon as possible.”
Lu Zheng, upon hearing this, showed a surprised expression.
“Fourth-tier? That’s great, let’s go, take me there.”
He had just been promoted to Fourth-tier, and with his Fourth-tier ability, according to previous experience, to advance to Fifth-tier, absorbing fifty Fourth-tier crystals would be enough.
But if he were to absorb Second-tier crystals, he would need at least five thousand.
That would not be an easy task.
Just the time to absorb crystals would not be short.
However, if there were Fourth-tier crystals, it would be much simpler.
As for the Fourth-tier monsters, he was not worried about their danger.
For ordinary people, even a First-tier Scythe Mantis was something they couldn't handle.
But for the military, even a Fourth-tier monster could not survive under concentrated firepower.
Therefore, Lu Zheng had no worries about danger, only excitement for leveling up.
Before long, he arrived at the conference room.
Zang Zhenyu showed Lu Zheng two videos.
In the videos, a blue-black centipede, over twenty meters long, released an icy aura, and wherever it passed, a layer of frost condensed.
This was one of the new monsters, the Fourth-tier Frost Centipede.
The other was a Second-tier Dizzying Ghost-faced Bat, with a wingspan of about 1.5 meters, which could release sound waves with a Mental Hypnosis effect, similar to the Sonic Worm.
Zang Zhenyu spoke:
“The Fourth-tier Frost Centipede cannot be effectively damaged by a single rocket, requiring about fifteen rockets to kill it.”
“Its attack range is very large; once it gets close to people, the icy breath it exhales can instantly kill ordinary people, and even body-strengthened ability users would find it very difficult to survive.”
“Currently, a total of twenty-four have been discovered across various bases, and more than half of them have been killed. The remaining ones, having escaped into shelters and with survivors nearby, are still under surveillance.”
“What affects us most is this Dizzying Ghost-faced Bat. When they were discovered, their numbers in various places exceeded a thousand, totaling no less than one hundred thousand.”
“They fly fast in the black fog, and their attack method cannot be judged or effectively avoided. Once they rush into a crowd, it’s easy to cause a large number of personnel to lose combat effectiveness, eventually being swarmed by other bugs.”
“Mr. Lu, we need your help!”
Thank you for your support!
