67: Chapter 67: All Members at "Good" Level, Heading Towards the Abyss
For the next three days, the Many Children, Many Blessings continued to break through the ice and travel rapidly in the Extreme Cold Sea Region.
With the coordinates and 'guide' that Li Taiping had left on Ice Island, Survivor across the entire large district seemed to have found an organization, swarming towards that resource-rich island.
The regional chat channel was filled daily with various trade information and praises for the Ten Thousand Generations Monarch.
Li Taiping would occasionally check it, using some common materials to exchange for the newly mined good grade materials from those 'workers'.
His resource reserves were growing at a snowballing pace.
And life on the ship, in these three days, returned to its usual calm and lively state.
Su Mei, Xia Zhi, Chu Mengyao, and the Twin Sisters, under the dual effect of the comfortable double bed and Yun Jinxin's Talent, woke up one after another on the second day.
When they learned what had happened during their coma, their reactions varied.
"What? That monster is dead? And you even turned that Ice Island into our farm?"
After listening to Li Taiping's narration, Su Mei's peach blossom eyes widened, looking at him as if he were a monster.
This guy's growth rate is too terrifying, isn't it?
Xia Zhi silently looked at Li Taiping, a strange glow flickering in her clear eyes.
She recalled the powerful 'rod' she had thrown before she fainted. Although she didn't know if it had worked, the captain being safe and sound was the best outcome.
Chu Mengyao still maintained her cold demeanor, but when she learned that even she, a young lady, had been personally carried to bed by Li Taiping, her ears couldn't help but turn red.
The Twin Sisters chirped around the newly arrived Yu Tong, curiously asking about the details of the "Many Children, Many Blessings Ritual," making Yu Tong blush profusely, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.
The entire Many Children, Many Blessings was filled with a joyful atmosphere, sweeping away the previous gloom.
Li Taiping greatly enjoyed this family happiness.
During the day, he taught The girls how to use weapons, how to fight, or chatted with them to deepen their bond.
Evenings were his sacred time as captain to fulfill his "many children, many blessings" duties.
Of course, he never forgot to improve his strength.
In these three days, he almost ate good grade energy stone like it was food.
With an unlimited supply of energy stone, his life level finally broke through the bottleneck on the afternoon of the third day!
[Congratulations! Your life level has been upgraded to: Excellent Grade (early stage)!]
The moment the system prompt sounded, Li Taiping felt an indescribably powerful force surge from his limbs and bones, instantly sweeping through his entire body.
His body, his spirit, every cell of his, underwent a thorough transformation.
If he, at the good grade, was a surging river.
Then he, at the Excellent Grade, was a vast ocean!
There was a world of difference between the two!
"Is this... the power of the Excellent Grade?"
Li Taiping clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within him, his heart filled with heroic spirit.
And The girls' strength also underwent earth-shattering changes in these three days.
With an unlimited supply of ice crystal fruit, Su Mei, Xia Zhi, Yun Jinxin, Chu Mengyao, Lin Qingxue, Lin Weiyu, and the newly arrived Yu Tong,
The life levels of all seven of them broke through the shackles of the normal grade, all reaching the early stage of the good grade!
One Excellent Grade and seven good grades on one ship!
Such a lineup is probably unique in the entire Survivor world!
"That's enough, it's time to go to the next sea region."
That day, Li Taiping stood in the cockpit, looking at the gradually deepening sea in the distance, muttering to himself.
The resources of the Extreme Cold Sea Region had been almost fully developed by him; it was time to explore a new map.
"Chu Mengyao, come here for a moment."
He called out to the cabin.
Soon, Chu Mengyao, dressed in a black suit, looking heroic and spirited, walked over.
After these few days of getting along and improving her strength, she had fully integrated into the group, though her cold and proud young lady demeanor was innate.
"Captain, what's the matter?"
She asked, her voice still clear and cold.
"Use your Talent to see if there's any information about the next sea region."
Li Taiping directly gave the order.
Although he had also made predictions, he still wanted to try if Chu Mengyao could get different new hints.
"Okay."
Chu Mengyao nodded and closed her eyes.
A mysterious and profound wave of energy emanated from her.
A few seconds later, she opened her eyes, her brows slightly furrowed.
"I saw two scenes," she said. "The first scene was a pitch-black sea, and in the sea, there seemed to be many...
Many huge shadows swimming, giving a very oppressive and dangerous feeling."
"The second scene was a fishing rod made entirely of alloy. It seemed to be... a reward given by the system after we entered that sea region."
Li Taiping stroked his chin after listening.
Pitch-black seawater, huge shadows...
"It seems the next sea region really is the 'Abyssal Sea Region,'" he thought to himself.
The information he received was about the Abyssal Sea Region, and that there were dormant terrifying giant sea monsters in its depths.
As for the Alloy Fishing Rod reward, it was probably a supply given by the system to all Survivor.
"Abyssal Sea Region... it doesn't sound like a good place."
Su Mei said worriedly from the side.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Li Taiping smiled, his face full of confidence. "If soldiers come, we'll block them; if water comes, we'll cover it with earth. No matter if it's an abyss or hell, we'll just charge through."
His current strength gave him the confidence to look down on everything.
The girls looked at his confident appearance, and their worries dissipated considerably.
Yes, with the captain here, what is there to fear?
Just as Li Taiping was about to give the order to sail at full speed towards the Abyssal Sea Region.
He suddenly remembered something.
He opened his personal warehouse and, from a corner, pulled out a frost-covered card.
It was the Dungeon Entry Ticket he had previously dropped from the Tundra Wolf King.
He glanced at the information on the card.
[Ice Island Dungeon Entry Ticket (Special)]
[Current Progress: 10/10]
[Match successful! All holders have agreed to enter, the dungeon is about to open!]
[Enter now?]
"Oh? Finally gathered enough people?"
Li Taiping's eyebrows slightly raised.
There was only one such Dungeon Entry Ticket per large district, and it required the simultaneous agreement of holders from ten large districts to open.
It had been stuck at 9/10 before, and he didn't know which district's coward had been afraid to click 'agree'.
Now, finally, everyone had passed.
"Perfect, before entering the Abyssal Sea Region, I'll go play around in this cross-server dungeon."
Li Taiping couldn't help but exude a hint of arrogance.
He had armed The girls on the ship, and his own strength had reached the Excellent Grade. He was just looking for a place to test the results.
This cross-server dungeon came at just the right time.
"I wonder what level the top powerhouses in other large districts have reached?"
He thought, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
He turned his head and said to The girls on the ship:
"The girls, you guard the home. I'm going to explore the dungeon first."
With that, he no longer hesitated and firmly pressed "Confirm" on the system panel!
