Chapter 29 He's a madman monster!
The tender kiss I had imagined never came.
Jiang Ying felt as if her body was burning hot, as if she were standing next to a furnace.
If she opened her eyes, she could see a dazzling and powerful energy surging from Li Yi's body.
It shone upon her like the sun.
Warm, cozy, and full of life!
Under the illumination of this energy, every cell in her body greedily absorbed it, as if it were a long-awaited rain after a drought.
Jiang Ying's originally pale face gradually became rosy.
The last rays of energy fell upon Liu Yue.
The gruesome wound on her palm was healing at an alarming rate.
Her eyelids trembled slightly, showing signs of waking up.
"alright."
The energy dissipated into the air.
Jiang Ying and Liu Yue opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
Liu Yue looked at her hands with a blank expression.
"What...what's wrong with me?"
"I think I had a nightmare..."
In her dream, she felt like she was about to die.
Upon seeing Liu Yue wake up, Jiang Ying disregarded her own safety and hugged her tightly.
"Thank goodness!! Yueyue, you're alright!!!"
Liu Yue's body was initially a little stiff.
She almost jumped up after I hugged her for only a short while.
She remembered what happened before she fell into a coma.
"How's the storm going? Is everyone alright?!"
In the last second before she lost consciousness, she saw a large amount of seawater flooding into the cabin.
The entire ship seemed to be sinking to the bottom of the sea.
Jiang Ying comforted her, saying, "The storm seems to have subsided a lot now, and the situation is much better."
"It's all in the past..."
Her gaze towards Li Yi was somewhat evasive, and a blush unconsciously appeared on her pretty face.
If Liu Yue hadn't been there, she would have been so embarrassed she would have jumped into the sea.
She just thought... she just thought she was going to...
How could she think of Li Yi like that? She's absolutely shameless...
Hopefully, Li Yi didn't notice.
Her mind was filled with random thoughts.
Unfortunately.
Li Yi had witnessed all of her actions.
However, Li Yi did not understand this.
Here, we must mention one point.
Although Li Yi possesses superhuman physical abilities, he is rather lacking in emotional intelligence.
In addition, he didn't have any of the desires that most people have.
Simply put, it means being single since birth.
For Li Yi, this was not something difficult to talk about.
He simply doesn't understand what it feels like to be in love.
He has studied many groups of people in relationships, and in his view, they are all driven by hormones.
The purpose of the behavior is the reproduction of the group.
But he's different.
He is not driven by hormones.
Because he is Superman.
Liu Yue glanced left at Jiang Ying, who was blushing, and right at Li Yi, who remained calm.
She suddenly felt like a 25W light bulb.
She shouldn't be here; she should be at the bottom of the ship.
"Um... Yingbao, should I go out first? I won't disturb you two."
Jiang Ying blushed and dragged her away as if they were fleeing.
With Liu Yue around, she can stay here.
If Liu Yue leaves, leaving her and Li Yi alone, she can't stay a second longer.
This is so embarrassing!
A large number of students gathered on the deck.
Their faces were filled with excitement.
"Damn, I never imagined in my life that I could survive a storm at sea..."
"It was really tough. I almost thought we were going to die here."
"What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!!"
"Wait, this rainwater seems to be fresh water. Quickly grab some bottles and jars to collect it; we can't waste it!"
One student tasted the rainwater and, finding it to be fresh, quickly called to his classmates and friends.
Everyone rushed into the cabin and took out containers to hold water.
They were all empty mineral water bottles and beverage bottles.
They didn't want to throw away the water after they finished drinking it.
Because plastic bottles have many uses.
And now, these plastic bottles are putting their purpose to use.
Some students, after filling their bottles, saw that it was still raining and simply tilted their heads back and opened their mouths wide to drink the rainwater.
Why not drink this free water?
After all, rain doesn't come all the time.
The student council is responsible for repairing some of the damage on the ship.
There was relatively little damage, and they were relieved that the giant wave hadn't hit them from the side.
Otherwise, the wooden boat would definitely have been smashed to pieces.
The giant waves crashing head-on were all broken through by the bow of the ship.
As the saying goes, "riding the wind and breaking the waves."
Repairing it is not difficult either.
Because ships are vehicles, only a few planks are needed to repair their durability.
Soon, the wooden boat was restored to its state before the storm.
The rain continued to fall in a light drizzle.
......
On the sea hundreds of kilometers away.
Under the clear sky, the ocean is a bright, clear blue.
Amidst the continuous expanse of blue, an irregular patch of brown suddenly appears.
This is the Jiangnan Base City.
It is a maritime base built by the wisdom and hard work of tens of thousands of people!
Countless square raft units were tightly packed together, their gaps filled with dried seaweed and tar-black threads.
Just like land, it stretches across the sea, with no end in sight.
Just like land, it stretches across the sea, with no end in sight.
Viewed from above, this continent made of rafts presents varying shades of color.
The outermost layer is a fine, dense wooden fence, which is called "Xiaolang Forest".
The shallow waves crashed against it, quickly turning into splashing spray.
Because the rafts are tightly connected by chains, the entire "continent" seems to undulate slowly as if it has a life of its own under the action of the waves.
For the people on the raft, it had almost no real impact.
Numerous buildings were constructed on the continent formed by the raft.
Most of them are built using wood and iron blocks that can be obtained from supply crates.
Although it doesn't look nearly as good as concrete, it's still perfectly adequate for sheltering from the wind and rain.
The houses were built close together, with wooden troughs extending crookedly from almost every roof toward the street.
This is a rainwater collection trough, with a wooden bucket attached to the end.
Because of the sunny weather, people were chatting and basking in the sun in twos and threes in front of the houses.
A group of children ran past, laughing and playing.
Occasionally, a shout from an adult scolding a child could be heard.
If you ignore the occasional undulating "land" and the distant sea, this place is almost no different from the land.
Some of the wooden planks here are white, representing "streets".
The streets are only wide enough for people to walk on, and houses cannot be built on them.
The street continued to extend until we arrived at the Inner Harbour area.
The Inner Harbor District is the true lifeline of Gangnam Base City.
It encompasses commerce, urban planning, production/industry, and more.
The architecture here is more detailed.
In particular, the houses in the municipal planning are circular wooden structures with a diameter of about fifteen meters.
In the center is a huge round table with a simple map of the entire city engraved on its surface.
A petite, young-looking girl was leaning over the table.
There were many slightly messy draft papers in front of her.
The draft paper contained everything from complex calculation formulas to architectural blueprints.
There are even simple doodles of monster sketches.
However, the most unique one is a portrait of a person.
The portrait bore a striking resemblance to Li Yi.
The girl's body began to tremble, though she didn't know what she was dreaming about.
She began to talk in her sleep uncontrollably.
"No...no, why are you so strong? I'm not reconciled!"
"I will kill you, I will... I will!!!"
She suddenly woke up from the nightmare, her forehead covered in cold sweat.
Soon, a girl rushed in from outside, looking at her with a worried expression.
"Professor Gu, were you having another nightmare?"
"You're working too hard, you really need to take a break..."
She slumped into the chair, ignoring everything.
"There's no time... He's coming, he's a madman, a monster!!!"
