144: Arrogant Zhao Tianyu
Song San, on the other hand, pointed at the huge train locomotive floating on the sea, blinking his eyes in a daze.
"No, huh? Elite Rank? When did your Train Hero reach Elite Rank?"
He remembered a week ago that this Train Hero was still Extraordinary Level, and still had some distance to go before reaching the Transcendent Limit.
What did he use to modify it, to upgrade from Extraordinary Level to Elite Rank in just a few days?
"Get in."
Bai Ye waved at the dumbfounded Song San, easily jumping onto the infinite, which had enlarged several times, holding two small cats.
Song San mechanically turned his stiff neck, stomped his foot on the completely anchored deep sea below, and made his choice without hesitation.
He rushed out of the cockpit, lunging to hug the tail of the infinite.
"Wait for me!"
Bai Ye had the infinite extend a mechanical arm and pull him up.
"This ship still has some use."
Bai Ye glanced back at the deep sea floating alone on the sea, and told Xiao Lan to drag it with her Vine Whip, intending to use it to store fish later.
He had originally planned this; without a ship, the infinite wouldn't be able to carry many spoils.
On the side of the infinite's front, dozens of thick Frost Vine Whips extended out.
They firmly bound the stalled deep sea, which was then dragged by the infinite, following behind the railway.
"Goodbye, Deep... wait? Still going to use it?"
Song San looked at the surging seawater behind him, his complex emotions that had just brewed instantly stuck.
In the sky, the diligent live-streaming drone following them recorded this scene completely.
In the director's room behind the drone, the director specifically tracking Bai Ye stared blankly at the screen.
"What happened?"
"He actually used a Train Hero as a boat. This is really interesting. Now that I think about it, Bai Ye seems to have a lot of Talent for being an internet celebrity."
He stroked his chin, seriously looking at Bai Ye's face on the screen.
He's really good at creating content.
On the roof of the infinite, Bai Ye sat cross-legged, his Deep Sea Dragon Tendon Wood fishing rod casually propped in front of him.
The fishing line dipped into the sea, and the Vine Whip at the end emitted a faint Aromatic Pollen, acting as bait.
Song San, like a curious baby, touched and looked around in the cockpit, constantly exclaiming "Wow" and other sounds of surprise.
An Elite Rank Train Hero indeed had the ability to navigate through the Storm Sea Eye.
Song San swallowed, climbed from the cockpit to the roof, and came to Bai Ye's side.
He now seriously suspected that the College Entrance Examination Bai Ye spoke of was not the same as the College Entrance Examination he understood.
The infinite's body vibrated slightly, and the energy track ahead rapidly extended, drawing a silver-white trajectory on the calm sea surface.
Even with the deep sea still being dragged behind, its speed was not slow.
It even caused Song San on the roof to stumble, almost getting thrown off, so he quickly hugged a protrusion on the roof tightly.
"Slow... slower!"
The live broadcast screen focused on the sea train.
Among the many contestants, on the Tiangong Group's flagship, the tiangong divine ark.
A handsome young man, shirtless, lying on a sun lounger, was watching this scene on his phone.
His ship had an Extraordinary Level mechanical Demonic Beast as a signal amplifier.
Even at sea, his signal was stronger than most people's on land.
"Train Hero?"
Zhao Tianyu's brows furrowed.
"Young Master Zhao, this kid actually has a Train Hero from the Railway Bureau. Could he be an official person?"
A henchman beside him asked in a low voice, covering his mouth to avoid being heard by the live broadcast machine.
"Hmph, he just got lucky and somehow acquired an outdated model of Train Hero."
Zhao Tianyu snorted disdainfully.
"The core technology of the Railway Bureau, how could it be leaked outside unless it was to an official or someone with significant achievements."
He came to participate in the competition for the heart of the tide.
As early as two months ago, he heard that a water-element Monarch Rank Demonic Beast in the Nine Dragons Domain was recently looking for treasures that could improve Aptitude for its offspring.
If he could offer the heart of the tide, he might gain the favor of that Monarch Rank's offspring.
For this, he did not hesitate to use his Family's power to charter all professional sea fishing boats that could enter the Storm Sea Eye.
He also invited a Fifth-Tier Beast Tamer to escort him, just to ensure he could win the championship without fail.
"Speed up the automatic fishing machine! Catch all Demonic Beasts, whether they are common Rank or other Ranks!"
"Second-tier trash, dares to compete with me?"
Zhao Tianyu smiled coldly, looking at the Demonic Beasts caught by the automatic fishing device not far away.
He had already won too much just in basic equipment.
This was the victory of wealth.
"Tell the ship to speed up and rush into the Sea Eye. I want to see how his broken train can compare to my tiangong divine ark!"
"Yes, Young Master Zhao!"
Hearing his words, the middle-aged man next to him, who was also sunbathing, opened his eyes.
He was the Fifth-Tier Beast Tamer responsible for protecting Zhao Tianyu's safety this time.
"Young Master, this person, no matter what, has a Train Hero. He probably has an association background, so it's best not to provoke him easily."
Li Mu reminded him.
"Uncle Li, don't be afraid. He's just a second-tier kid. Even if he has a Train Hero, so what? In front of my tiangong divine ark, it's just a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
Zhao Tianyu waved his hand, not taking Li Mu's advice much to heart.
If that Bai Ye dared to crash into his ship like before, he would only end up with a wrecked ship and death.
Even a Lord-level crashing into it would inevitably become dizzy and eventually be captured by Uncle Li.
Li Mu shook his head and said no more.
He was just a hired bodyguard; the employer's safety was paramount.
As for what the employer wanted to do, as long as it didn't endanger his life, he had no right to interfere... As the infinite prepared to accelerate out of the Silent Windless Zone, more than a dozen small black dots appeared on the calm horizon.
Song San couldn't see clearly, but Bai Ye saw everything clearly.
Those small black dots were indeed dozens of damaged ships, with many Beast Tamers struggling in the water below.
Several beautiful Deep Sea Mermaids were leading the fallen into the sea out of this area.
Without water-element or Demonic Beasts capable of staying in the water for long periods, even Elite Rank Demonic Beasts would find it difficult to bring people back from the Silent Windless Zone.
Therefore, the officials arranged many races similar to Deep Sea Mermaids here for rescue at any time.
But even so, the rescue Demonic Beasts were still somewhat insufficient.
"What's going on?"
As they got closer, Song San exclaimed in surprise at the sight.
"Commander, detecting a large number of Demonic Beast energy signatures in the sea ahead. It's a Rock-Skin Toothed Shark swarm."
The infinite's detection System scanned for a few seconds and quickly provided the answer.
"Shark swarm riot?"
Song San was full of questions: "Although the Demonic Beasts in the Silent Windless Zone are powerful, they have always been docile and generally don't actively attack fishing boats."
Bai Ye looked at the shredded ship wreckage on the screen and said nothing.
In the seawater, hundreds of Beast Tamers struggled and called for help.
As for their beast pets, most were either severely injured and lost combat ability.
Or they simply couldn't enter the water to fight.
Dense shark fins slid across the sea surface, like a scalp-numbing black forest.
