Chapter 654: Clam Girl~
Three hours later, Yu Liang completed the cleansing of the entire island. When he left the island, he had basically confirmed that there were no more living barrel people or humans here.

Apart from the lighthouse keeper who was still guarding the ocean on the lighthouse, Yu Liang was not sure whether this guy had noticed the infected barrel man who had left the island, because he really didn't want to meet him again.

The root cause of the island's destruction was not him, but he was the cause.

When he came, this was a harmonious pastoral town; when he left, only a dense primeval forest was left behind.

However, there was good news in the process of cleaning up the island. He actually found some normal survivors, such as Ma Debang and Hua Jie who had appeared in the diary.

Sister Hua realized something was wrong when the infected appeared. She was very experienced and had heard some news about the Barrel People infection a long time ago. Those disasters almost destroyed the Barrel People on all other islands, so she chose to hide in the bunker in her home as soon as possible.

She knew very well that this kind of infected barrel people was not something she could handle. It was not like daily political affairs where she only needed to fill in some data and forms. This was a disaster that came to destroy all the barrel people.

As a result, after hiding in there for a while, she heard the obvious sound of machine gun fire and the gradually subsiding voices from the Barrel Men, which made her realize that the so-called GM had come back. So after making an accurate judgment, she crawled out of the bunker and joined Yu Liang's team with the supplies stored by the Barrel Men.

Of course, it was mainly because of the supplies that Yu Liang could accept such a bucket man.

There was a large amount of food, alcohol, fuel and some gunpowder stored on this island, which were all necessities for Yu Liang during his ocean voyages, so he accepted Sister Hua and her supplies without much hesitation.

The joining of Madbang is another level of help. As mentioned in the lighthouse keeper’s diary, Madbang’s alienated profession is “thief”, and the gradient is not low, reaching the T2 level.

Perhaps it is this high gradient that can suppress the wanderers on the entire island.

When the island was still a place with only wanderers, Madbang was undoubtedly the absolute leader. But after all the wanderers on the island were transformed into barrel men by the lighthouse people, he seemed to be stimulated by something and no longer had any interest in leading the island.

The new leader became the current Sister Hua.

Unlike his profession, Ma Debang does not look the least bit vulgar, and his speech is not too vulgar. His overall image is similar to Hu Ge in the movie "The South Station" that Yu Liang has seen, a bit unruly and full of the atmosphere of the underworld.

To be fair, putting aside this guy's profession, Yu Liang does not reject this kind of person, and this person did bring him some good things.

A thief has four main abilities. The first is the enhancement of the most basic physical fitness. As a thief, Madbang moves very fast and has very flexible hands.

After becoming a barrel man, Madbon gained ten limbs, four hands and six feet. When he moved, he used his hands and feet together, looking like a wheel.

The movement speed bonus brought by the alienated profession was transferred to the six legs. According to Ma Debang himself, with more legs, his movement speed has also become faster. The number of legs is three times the original, and now the movement speed is also three times.

Likewise, the dexterity of his hands is twice as good as before.

It’s a pity that he didn’t find a way to continue growing limbs, otherwise he would have turned himself into a centipede or something like that.

I'm not a human being anyway, so why should I care about my image?

"I'm not a human being anymore anyway, so I'll do whatever you want me to do next." Ma Debang stood at the bow and smiled heartily.

He often said this, and it seemed very straightforward, but judging from the fact that he gave up on leading the barrel people, he was probably the type of person who could not accept himself becoming a barrel person.

Yu Liang nodded. There were three paper men following the two barrel men. If they made any abnormal moves, they would be killed directly by the paper men.

Although he joined his fleet, the level of trust in him was not very high.

In addition to the most basic physical fitness bonus, Madbon also has the two abilities of wall-passing and semi-invisibility, both of which are very practical abilities for thieves, while the last one is for pure stealing players.

[Empty Hands]: Select a target to steal randomly. The value of the stolen items will determine the degree of punishment you will receive after being arrested.

The scope of theft is very wide, including the four columns and even abilities related to alienated professions.

However, according to Madbang's description, it is basically impossible to steal the alienated profession. It is probably an ability that can only be truly mastered after being promoted to T1.

This is related to what An Buchen mentioned earlier. A T1 thief can steal other people's alienated professions, but some harsh conditions need to be met.

Theft is an alienated occupation.

Yu Liang looked at Ma Debang silently. As a scholar, he finally saw a guy with an alienated profession similar to his own.

In his mind, this was definitely a very dangerous guy, capable of stealing accounts.

However, at present, Ma Debang can still be kept for the time being, even if it is kept as a [Creation] resource. After all, the current creation list is already full.

The ship set sail again. This time, Yu Liang's ship had an additional name, "Anti-Cross". The reason was that Ma Debang believed that an ocean-going ship without a name was meaningless.

The original plan was to name the ship "Anti-Barrel Man", but there were two barrel men on board, and it sounded too much like "Rice Bucket Man", so Yu Liang named the ship "Anti-Cross" based on the comic book.

"How much do you know about the surrounding waters? Where is the nearest island where the barrel people live?" Yu Liang asked Ma Debang and Sister Hua, they should be more familiar with this place.

Madbang looked at the island that was gradually going away, then at the endless ocean in the distance, and continued: "On that side, near the lighthouse, walk along that sea road for about half an hour and you should find an island of barrel people. That is the base camp of the nearby barrel people."

"I came from the direction you mentioned." Yu Liang shook his head, "but I didn't meet the barrel people you mentioned. They were not there."

He sighed and said, "If the island you are standing on did not secretly turn around, then it must be because the ocean expanded and caused the position of the Barrel Man Island to shift, and I just happened to miss the shifted Barrel Man Island."

"Maybe." Madbang shook his head. "Is the island rotating? There is only one lighthouse on the island. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west every day. I won't make a wrong judgment."

sun?

The people here rely on the sun to determine direction, which makes sense since there is only the sun in the entire dungeon.

However, in the copy, the sun represents "rising in the east and setting in the west", but the one that "rises in the east and sets in the west" may not necessarily be the sun.

Yu Liang was well aware of the power of the barrel man's roots, so he decided to follow his feelings and continue exploring inside in the opposite direction of the lighthouse.

Just a few hours ago, the infected barrel men fled in all directions, and some of them would go in that direction.

He had been sailing on the ocean for half a month. No matter how big this ocean was, he should have encountered some special islands. Otherwise, the area of ​​this ocean was really despairing.

Moreover, the characters he created are not in the universe. They are all struggling. Maybe you can meet them while walking on the sea...

Eh?
Yu Liang's peripheral vision swept across a familiar face on the sea. The ocean was now calm, and the clear water could easily reveal the underwater scene. When he looked closely, a somewhat familiar face appeared on the seabed.

On the small bed built of reefs, a huge clam was swaying along with the surrounding seaweed, and in the center of the clam was sleeping a beauty, as if she was sleeping on a soft big bed, quietly waiting for rescue.

It’s Li Huachao.

Yu Liang: "..."

No, why are you here, man?
I have thought of you becoming the devil barrel man, and I have thought of you becoming the captain of the Black Pearl, but I never thought that you could be a clam girl here, buddy.

As if sensing Yu Liang's gaze, Li Huachao, who was sleeping on the clam bed, stretched lazily and squinted his eyes to look at the sea.

This was a shocking sight. He widened his eyes with excitement and kept calling out to Yu Liang, saying something, probably wanting Yu Liang to rescue him quickly.

Yu Liang also noticed something strange about Li Huachao. He seemed to be isolated from the sea water, as if it were air. Li Huachao could still speak and move, but he was trapped at the bottom of the sea and had no way to come up by his own strength.

So he docked the boat here, connected the extended rope ladder to a heavy object and lowered it down. After several fine adjustments, the rope ladder landed in front of the clam girl.

Li Huachao was surprised and stretched out his hands desperately to grab the rope ladder. His movements seemed a little stiff and his hands and feet could hardly move, as if they were half suppressed by something. But in the end, he managed to hold on to the rope ladder smoothly with his own efforts.

Immediately afterwards, the Grass Infant Mecha and paper people on the boat began to pull the rope ladder, trying to pull Li Huachao up, while the rest of the paper people controlled the bone machine guns and aimed them in the direction of the rope ladder, ready to hit Li Huachao a few times at any time.

If this Li Huachao was an illusion, they would definitely show no mercy.

However, this was exactly Li Huachao. While the rope ladder was fishing him out of the sea, Yu Liang tried to examine Li Huachao in the universe to confirm his identity before pulling him up.

The clams were still entangled by the rope ladder, and Yu Liang did not waste them and pulled them onto the boat.

Then he released the smiling Li Huachao and looked at him with a dark face: "What happened to you?"

"Um... you should be the real Yu Liang, right?" Li Huachao scratched his head, trying to ease his embarrassment with a humorous way, "It was just that I was careless, haha, and a little problem occurred."

"What happened? Tell me quickly. I don't have time to waste with you." Yu Liang said unhappily. Now Li Huachao was the first person he had truly met. He would definitely be able to get a lot of information from him.

"Okay." Li Huachao shrugged his shoulders, looking very helpless. "You also saw this sea clam. There was a super pearl inside it. I ate it, and then I was able to avoid water, just like a water-avoiding golden-eyed beast."

"Then why are you still trapped by the clam? This thing doesn't look like... a strange creature." Yu Liang tried to kick the clam from behind. The clam's shell flipped slightly, and it looked weak. Or maybe it was frightened by Yu Liang and the others and didn't dare to move.

Li Huachao was even more helpless when he heard that. "Look, you've never been to the sea, have you? The sealing power of this seawater is too strong. I can't even move after entering it, and I can't use my skills. The fact that I can stay awake is already a sign of the powerful effect of the water-repellent beads. Fortunately, I put some food in my inventory, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to die on the bottom of the sea."

Yu Liang: "..."

So you also know how embarrassing it is, haha.

"Well, when I first entered the dungeon, I was on a cruise ship, and I learned about it from some tourists. It's a ship that can travel back and forth between fantasy and reality." Li Huachao explained briefly. He looked at the sailboat that Yu Liang was currently mastering and praised him, which was rare. "Your current ship is not bad. It's much better than the small rafts that other players started with. You're quite capable."

He continued, "On the cruise ship, it's basically no different from a real luxury cruise ship, with food, drinks, and entertainment. I found Lu Baoshen in the casino on the ninth floor... I know what you want to say. This guy spawned in the casino again. Is this a talent skill?"

Li Huachao continued to talk nonstop: "Then he told me that the big players in this casino all gamble with a special kind of barrel coins, which are basically indispensable for life on the cruise ship. What's even more exciting is that as long as we have enough barrel coins, we can even buy the cruise ship!"

"Buy a cruise ship?" Yu Liang's eyes lit up. He knew about the cruise ship. This might be the ship he wanted to own the most in the entire copy. But he glanced at Li Huachao, who was wearing a sloppy cardigan, and immediately knew what was going on.

If nothing unexpected happened, then there must have been an accident, otherwise Li Huachao would not be in the sea.

"Well, we lost. Lu Baoshen and Lu Mingzhe were two idiots playing me. They lost even with good luck. Well, good luck seems to be useless, but how could you, Lu Mingzhe, lose with your gambling skills? And he didn't even realize how the other party cheated. It's too outrageous." Li Huachao couldn't help complaining, and shrugged helplessly. "Then we lost everything and owed some. As compensation, we had to go to the sea to fish for pearls and use the water-repellent pearls in exchange for the opportunity to stay on the cruise ship."

"Didn't you find the pearl?" Yu Liang was a little puzzled. "And the sea water is sealed, how did you get into the water?"

"There is indeed a seal, but a special oil is applied on the body so that the person can move barely. Then, he is lowered down with a rope, and the person is like the grappling hook of a claw machine. This thing cannot be taken out by a machine. If a machine is used, the clams will eat the beads. As for people, some with more obvious masculine aura can more easily knock open the atrium of the clams. They have no resistance to wild men." Li Huachao explained briefly.

"and then?"

Li Huachao's face suddenly darkened. "Then the sea clam actually opened its mouth when it saw me. Not only did it open its mouth, it also stuffed the bead into my mouth!"

Yu Liang: "..."

An officially certified wild man?

Li Huachao kicked the clam with resentment, and the clam immediately opened its shell with numbness. He continued, "Such behavior was considered a provocation, and then they left me there, saying that a boat would take me away in a few days. I didn't expect it to be you... Lu Mingzhe and An Buchen were so mean that they didn't even think of a way to save me. I will never trust this dwarf alliance again in my life!"

"An Buchen? Wait, is she on the cruise ship?" Yu Liang was stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized that the time didn't match.

"Yes, they have been on the ship the whole time. During this period of time, magicians and coaches have come one after another, preparing to solve the strange events on the ship. We can't help much, so we went to the casino to play." Li Huachao blinked his clear eyes and looked at the confused Yu Liang, "Where else can we go? And they are still guessing how long it will take you to find the core area of ​​this copy. I have to say that your exploration progress is a bit slow this time."
