When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean. Chapter 40 Chen Qing’s Confusion

"Sister——"

There was no activity in Chen Qing’s room for a long ti, and Daliya knocked on the door with so concern.

"It’s okay."

The unemotional voice of Chen Qing ca from the room, and Daliya breathed a sigh of relief and obediently went to help the Superpower Vine.

In the room, Chen Qing, who had changed into new clothes, ca out of the bathroom while drying her hair and casually pushed the window open. The water vapor filling the room imdiately rushed out from the circular opening.

She sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, pulling out the Bounty Book from the bookshelf.

The captain’s room was spacious and fully equipped, even featuring a small bar where bottles of liquor were arranged according to their value.

Chen Qing was not fond of drinking, but she did indulge occasionally, so these facilities were kept.

She had made only so minor modifications to the captain’s room, changing a batch of furniture.

The sofa she was sitting on was custom ordered.

"..."

Chen Qing looked at the sofa beneath her with so confusion; was this sofa... a bit small?

It seed... not that the sofa had shrunk but that she had grown taller again.

In her original world, Chen Qing was already quite tall, and unexpectedly, she had grown taller after a breakthrough in her physical attributes.

Could it be that she would grow taller with every breakthrough?

Chen Qing flipping through the Bounty Book suddenly paused, but after thinking about it, it seed there wasn’t anything bad about it.

What she pursued was the imnse strength of both body and spirit, so growing taller was not a bad thing.

If she grew too tall, perhaps the ship would need so modifications.

In this world, many other species survived, including the legendary giants.

Chen Qing looked through the Bounty Book, which also listed so pirates from other races who were wanted.

However, here on Sapphire Island, the number of pirates from other races that Chen Qing and her group encountered was few.

On the contrary, the group of Bounty Hunters had a more significant proportion of other races.

Those non-human pirates mostly joined human pirate groups and did not have separate non-human pirate groups.

Chen Qing quickly found the pirate group that Gao Yue and the others had their eyes on in the Bounty Book, nad the Ten-color Pirate Group.

The core crew of the ship consisted of ten mbers, each leading at least seven or eight underlings.

However, the scale of their ship was nowhere near that of Chen Qing’s ship, which, after a price increase, would sell for at least thousands to tens of thousands of goldfish.

The transmission of information among the natives was too quick; the steep increase in ship prices was largely thanks to the survivors.

The strength of the captain of the Ten-color Pirate Group was similar to Chen Qing’s, the rest of the core crew were slightly inferior, and the sailors could be completely ignored.

Chen Qing, browsing the Bounty Book, had a good understanding of the general situation of the Ten-color Pirate Group.

If no other pirate groups intervened, without surprises, she could completely take down the Ten-color Pirate Group.

However, she thought that other pirate groups probably didn’t have the ti to interfere.

Chen Qing, gazing out the window at the bounty ships passing by, had a slight upward curve on her lips.

Indeed, it was a rare grand celebration.

After Qiao Zhiyu bribed the dock workers, the Superpower Vine quickly drove the ship to set sail.

Of course, Chen Qing’s ship couldn’t rely just on wind, manpower, and the chanical force of the Superpower Vine, she also installed several small power devices under the ship, which were barely usable.

The Superpower Vine mysteriously produced several gigantic paddles and, amidst a variety of slowly departing ships, Chen Qing’s ship surged ahead in speed.

Gao Yue and the others were amazed and resolved to lure a chanic onto the ship.

Even if they couldn’t match up to Chen Qing, it would still be good to have soone on board to repair ho appliances and tinker with inventions.

"Hey, care for a ride on the way?"

A group of Bounty Hunters, seeing the speed of Chen Qing’s ship, were instantly impressed and shouted through the window at Chen Qing inside the room.

"Yes."

Chen Qing closed the Bounty Book, nodding.

With Chen Qing’s approval, several figures swiftly appeared on the ship.

These bounty hunters were quite compliant, paying the boarding fee to Daliya.

In the watchful eyes of everyone, Daliya seed the most like the owner, and in Chen Qing’s absence, Gao Yue and the others always looked to her first.

"Have you ever considered joining a Bounty Group?"

A bounty hunter examined Chen Qing’s ship from top to bottom, his envy undisguised, as he called out to Chen Qing erging from the cabin.

"Rest assured, our Bounty Group has no restrictions, you can co and go as you please, no compulsory tasks, and no need to pay fees either."

"If you join our Bounty Group, the group will periodically share the locations of various pirate groups and often organize hunting operations against large pirate groups."

This bounty hunter enthusiastically invited Chen Qing, lowering his voice to tell him about so unwritten rules.

"So private bounty tasks won’t be listed on the Bounty Guild; employers will contact the Bounty Group directly to issue tasks."

"Also, we have special ans of locating those pirate groups’ exact positions."

"Our Bounty Group hunters are well-known for their strength in the Deep Blue Sea."

"You can think it over carefully before answering ."

"Everyone calls Huo Hou. If you’re interested later on, you can find ."

The bounty hunter handed a particularly intricately made na card to Chen Qing.

She did not demand an imdiate response from Chen Qing; choosing a Bounty Group and being chosen by one was mutual.

It was a two-way selection; she understood that.

This was a one-ti use contact device. Burning the na card would allow communication with the card’s owner.

Chen Qing accepted the na card, nodding slightly.

Bounty Group—this was indeed worth considering.

Although the profession of pirate was popular in this world and many survivors had set out to sea under the pirate flag,

their slogans were all grand sounding:

For freedom, to explore the unknown, to pursue peace, to protect the weak without succumbing to money or power, friendships, passion, youth, and other various muddled ideas...

However, Chen Qing had never considered becoming a pirate.

And none of those slogans had anything to do with pirates.

If anything, those slogans should describe adventurers and bounty hunters.

The occupation of a bounty hunter was born because of those pirates who went around committing all sorts of evil deeds.

Huo Hou’s words had indeed left Chen Qing unusually perplexed; what should she do next?

Not just short-term goals, but sothing more long-term and aningful.

Initially, the main goal of this survival ga was simply survival, which applied to ordinary survivors.

For Chen Qing, surviving on the ocean was by no ans difficult.

If she wished, she could comfortably live her life out in the Deep Blue Sea.

Braving the Scarlet Sea Domain?

It was indeed a fine goal, but... what then?

What would she do after entering the Scarlet Sea Domain? The pirates pursued the so-called King of Pirates title, hunters for money or strength, also to protect their families and companions.

What should she pursue? Great power? Eternal life? A supre status?
