Chapter 112 Easy Success

Watching the external armor of The Ark, which had been silent on the water for a long time, slowly slide open to reveal the dense array of weapons hidden beneath, the crowd nearby instantly erupted!

"Zhao Jun! Look at this, what the hell is this? Didn't you say this was a fishing boat?!"

Everyone had originally thought this was a little lamb that could be bullied at will, but after touching it a couple of times, they realized it was a wolf in sheep's clothing...

On the water, Zhao Jun, wearing a black jacket and brown sunglasses, stood on a makeshift wooden boat and shouted to the crowd: "What are you all panicking about? Isn't it better if it has weapons? I was afraid it would just be filled with people holding knives with their bare hands!"

Zhao Jun's hoarse voice echoed across the water, and the crowd looked at each other, actually nodding in agreement.

He was considered a long-time resident of this area. Before the flood, he ran an auto repair shop, and he had been a street thug when he was younger. At his age, around forty, he was considered a local "veteran."

After the flood, relying on his unique "mechanical manipulation" ability, he was considered one of the leading figures among this group of survivors.

Zhao Jun stared at The Ark, which was constantly deploying its weapon systems, the greed deep within his heart turning his rugged cheeks bright red.

"I had originally planned to try to control that Warship, but this one is clearly more advanced than that Warship! I just didn't expect it to be advanced to this degree?"

On Zhao Jun's boat, The Young Man pointed at The Ark and said: "Uncle... do you think the people on this boat are soldiers?"

The Young Man had once been an apprentice at Zhao Jun's auto repair shop, and after the flood, he had also been trapped in Zhao Jun's home.

"It doesn't matter if they are soldiers or not. Since we've chosen to act, there's no turning back..."

Zhao Jun found his opportunity and maneuvered the wooden boat, slowly approaching The Ark...

His rough palm pressed against the hull of The Ark...

In the cockpit, Li Meng watched Zhao Jun's movements on the screen with some vigilance.

"Big Brother! This group of people is not simple. Other boats are tied up with nails or ropes, but look!"

Li Meng pointed at the wooden boat under Zhao Jun's feet. "The connections are all mortise and tenon joints, plus screws for fixing, and he even has a small engine at the stern! These people... have some strength! They actually have electricity and tools!"

Zhao Jun had no idea that all his "little tricks" had been magnified by The Ark's cameras and projected onto the display screen. Watching his palm, which was flickering with a faint light, they all understood he was trying to use some kind of ability...

Inside the cabin, Su Yanqiu also raised her right hand. If the situation changed, she would immediately return the man outside the cabin to his state from one minute ago, making his trip a waste!

Zhao Jun had his back to the crowd. His face, which had been red with excitement, was now drained of all blood, becoming deathly pale...

The look in his eyes beneath his brown sunglasses was filled with extreme shock and a hint of fear...

The moment his mechanical manipulation ability made contact with the hull, he didn't feel the cold, rigid sensation he usually felt when touching machinery...

This boat seemed to have a life of its own, with the entire hull covered in a special network of energy. In front of this boat, his ability was as ridiculous as an ant trying to command an elephant with its arms!

Zhao Jun took a deep breath, suppressed the trembling in his palm, and withdrew his hand with a calm expression.

Xiao Dong leaned over nervously: "How is it?"

"Easy pickings! Let everyone keep climbing up. As long as we can pry open a crack in the boat, this boat will belong to Zhao!" Zhao Jun said loudly on purpose.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Dong was also full of excitement.

Once a person masters powerful weapons or strength, their ambition grows exponentially! Zhao Jun was like this, and so was Xiao Dong.

They say heroes are born in troubled times; what if he was that hero?

Originally, there were a few small boats around Zhao Jun, but when they heard Zhao Jun's words, they climbed towards The Ark with even more excitement...

Zhao Jun had spent years on the streets, after all; this was just like a fight between two sides when they were young.

If someone sees that you're a coward, you'll definitely get a leg broken today! As long as you appear calm on the surface, the other side won't be sure what you're made of, and they won't dare to make a move on you for a while.

At first, he had naively thought that this boat was scared, but it turned out they hadn't taken them seriously from the beginning!

Zhao Jun's acting skills were not bad; although he was panicking to death inside, he pretended to be calm on the surface, even deliberately using a relaxed tone to confuse everyone in order to buy himself time!

When no one was paying attention, Zhao Jun secretly reached out and poked Xiao Dong's elbow.

He whispered into Xiao Dong's ear: "I can't control this boat, drive the boat and run, quickly!"

Xiao Dong was stunned, turning his head to look at his master in disbelief.

He knew Zhao Jun's ability better than anyone! He could control machinery! As long as it was a mechanical object made of metal, it had to obey him!

If the generator didn't have oil, Zhao Jun just had to touch it! If the engine didn't have oil? Zhao Jun just had to touch it!

Yet he was actually saying he couldn't control this explosively cool boat?

Xiao Dong's expression didn't change. He forced the panic in his heart down, deliberately squeezing out a joyful expression, and while chatting and laughing with Zhao Jun, he maneuvered the small boat to slowly move away from The Ark...

Watching the armor on the surface of The Ark behind him all open up, Xiao Dong couldn't keep up the act anymore! He started twisting the throttle on his hand for all it was worth!

On The Ark, the people who had used all their strength to climb onto the deck looked at the boat fleeing rapidly in confusion.

"What is he doing?"

The people on the deck weren't stupid either. Watching Zhao Jun boasting while running away, they all realized that Zhao Jun most likely couldn't do anything about this boat!

"Damn! This bastard has screwed us over!"

"Zhao Jun! You..."

In an instant, a low but highly penetrating sound wave that made people's internal organs resonate spread from the hull!

The people on the deck suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous!

Those who hadn't managed to climb onto the deck simply let go of the ropes they were holding and fell into the water...

The mutated fish that had been circling The Ark in the water hadn't even had time to thank nature for the gift before they floated to the surface one by one with their bellies up...

That distinct infrasonic wave quickly disappeared. But for ordinary people, this was not good news. Because the intensity of the infrasonic wave was gradually increasing!

The frequency was approaching the resonant frequency of human internal organs at a terrifying speed!

Inside The Ark, on the weapon system's display screen, it locked onto the crowd...

Zhao Jun, who had already escaped a certain distance, was gritting his teeth and staring at the increasingly distant Ark.

"Find a place to hide! Damn it, we definitely can't go back home. If we go back now, won't this group of people tear us to pieces alive? If we can't take it by force, we'll find a chance to use soft tactics! If we can't do it openly, we'll do it covertly! If we want to gain a foothold in this water world, we can't do it without a boat! Let's go! Find a chance to control that Warship!"

Zhao Jun was so full of hate!

If he had known, he should have targeted that Warship first!

On the deck of The Ark, the agile people who had boarded the ship first demonstrated what "doomsday speed" meant. They didn't just climb the rope ladder quickly; they died quickly too...

Bleeding from their seven orifices, their faces twisted!

If Professor Li Guoming were to perform an autopsy on them, he would find that their internal organs were all shattered...

The crowd further away from The Ark didn't know what had happened on the ship, after all, infrasonic weapons cannot be heard by the human ear!

They could only see people on the ship falling off one by one like dumplings...

Although they didn't know what happened, Zhao Jun, who was leading the charge, had already run away, so why were they still hanging around here?

The armor on the deck of The Ark had been completely opened, revealing the dense vertical launch silos hidden beneath. There were countless of them, and one could only see them arranged like a honeycomb.

On both sides of the bridge and at the bow, multi-barreled close-in weapon systems slowly rotated and rose. On both sides of the top of the ship, two blue mirror structures protruded, flickering with a faint blue halo on the dim water...

Even if they were stupid, they had realized by now that what Zhao Jun had said before—that this boat was some new model of fishing boat from America—was all bullshit!

This is a fishing boat? What kind of fish does it catch!

"Damn that bastard Zhao Jun, he's treating us like Japanese people and trying to scam us!"

The crowd completely erupted, and panic began to spread.
