When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean. Chapter 74 Not Hard Enough

Currently, information about this Gemstone Hurricane is tightly concealed; only a select few are aware of it.

However, the problem cannot be resolved by rely concealing it.

Once the hurricane hits, there will be few survivors across the entire Gem Sea.

Even the rfolk and rmaids of the Sea Clan will find it hard to escape; the danger of the Gemstone Hurricane is not solely above the sea surface.

The various factions of the Gem Sea held a eting for a full 18 hours without finding a suitable solution.

No one anticipated that this Gemstone Hurricane would be so terrifying. In the face of natural disasters, humanity is always helpless.

After the eting concluded, a middle-aged woman in the Island Master Mansion rubbed her temples, unable to hide a hint of irritation on her face.

Mazan, as the Island Master of Sapphire Island, was unexpectedly an ordinary person.

"What should we do next, Lady Mazan?"

The Internal Affairs Officer asked respectfully, looking hopefully towards Mazan.

Mazan had not rested for two days and nights because of the 18-hour-long eting.

The whole eting was just a bunch of old-tirs shirking responsibility, none wanting to step forward to take command.

When the Gemstone Alliance was first ford, they all spoke grand words. Now, heh.

When there were benefits to be had, they all rushed to the forefront, but now disaster has struck, and each one is running faster than the last.

Diamond Island and Crystal Island, which reaped the most benefits in the Gemstone Alliance, are both now tucking their heads like scared turtles.

It was known that both islands had previously sent adventure teams to accompany the Deep Blue Caravan to a newly discovered ruin in the Scarlet Sea Domain, returning just last month.

As soon as the adventure team returned, those two islands imdiately began extensive defense constructions.

Mazan sneered, fearing that Diamond and Crystal harbored aspirations to dominate the Gem Sea.

Who would complain about having too many resources?

Once they’re gone, even if new powers erge in the Gem Sea, they could never surpass them.

"Have them prepare and be ready to initiate the Ark Plan at any mont."

They are all deeply entrenched powers of the Gem Sea; every one of them has so tricks up their sleeve.

The Ark Plan is Sapphire Island’s biggest trump card, but once initiated, it will an the end of Sapphire Island itself.

"Wait, first contact Qing Lan of Jade Island."

"Then, go and find Chen Qing."

Mazan seed to recall sothing and stopped the departing Internal Affairs Officer.

"Chen Qing?"

The Internal Affairs Officer naturally knew who Chen Qing was; she’s currently the most talked-about newcor in the Deep Blue Sea Domain.

Many were eyeing Daliya, yet she was surprisingly intercepted and sent to Lei Guang by Chen Qing.

Not one hunter or pirate on the island so much as touched a strand of Daliya’s hair.

Considering even a dead fish as if it were alive for treatnt, as the Island Master, Mazan was fully aware of all events on her island.

The chanical talent displayed by Chen Qing was truly astonishing.

The Island Master Mansion also employed several Advanced chanics, including one specialized in researching defensive constructions—an Engineering chanic.

After breaking through to an Advanced chanic, they usually focus on one area, similar to how a fighter chooses a weapon, becoming a Master of that particular School.

For example, the Engineering chanic maintained by the Island Master Mansion, and others like the Battlefield chanic, Military Fire chanic, and Data chanic...

And after breaking through as an Advanced chanic, Chen Qing will most likely be nad as a Transcendent-level chanic.

The protective shield on Sapphire Island is a chanical Creation from the Scarlet Sea Domain, and the chanics they have on the island are specifically there to maintain it.

Mazan took notice of Chen Qing’s chanical talent and hoped Chen Qing would bring her so unexpected surprises.

After all, no one had expected her to be able to deliver Daliya to Lei Guang’s hands.

Unless absolutely necessary, Mazan didn’t want to initiate the Ark Plan.

Unlike other islands, Sapphire Island almost had no top powerhouses.

Even Mazan, the Island Master, was just an ordinary person.

The reason they could beco a neutral power in the Gem Sea was partly because of figures like Lei Guang, the Gemstone Pirate Group, and other such Great Pirates that erged endlessly.

The other part was because of the Ark.

The Ark couldn’t turn Mazan into a super expert, but it could completely obliterate the entire territory of any force in the Deep Blue Sea Domain along with it.

Working on the ship, surrounded by various data, parts, and tals, Chen Qing didn’t expect to be targeted by Mazan.

In the studio, surrounded by discarded blueprints, Chen Qing frowned deeply, stuck in a deadlock that she couldn’t resolve.

The neighboring mini factory had already begun producing the three device blueprints Chen Qing had researched earlier.

"..."

Chen Qing, who had been troubled by this problem for two whole days, stared at the blueprint on the table and childishly slamd her pen down in frustration.

Indeed, I need to read more books, as one can never have too much knowledge when it’s needed.

Chen Qing gulped down a cup of ice-cold strong tea, which sowhat alleviated the frustration in her heart.

She had no idea how to combine the [Shield] of the Super Shield Whale with the [mbrane] of the underwater device or perfectly replace them.

Whether shield or mbrane, both were at the heart of their respective blueprints, and they were conflicting entities.

Chen Qing had tried several tis, wasting hundreds of goldfish in materials, and besides getting herself charred black in explosions, there were no results.

These two blueprints could only be compatible when moving downward, not upward.

The Super Shield Whale was a blueprint of blue quality, and Chen Qing had attempted to downgrade and fuse it at so point.

She did succeed, creating a green quality Super Shield Whale device that had the form of a whale, a shield, and the underwater living functions of an adaptation device.

Unfortunately, it was of green quality, far from what Chen Qing wanted.

The Blast Battle Rabbit and the underwater device were entirely incompatible.

Chen Qing, who dread of transforming a green blueprint into a purple quality blueprint, attributed all the problems to her lack of effort.

I really need to make an effort to study more.

She never considered that if chanical diagrams were so easy to transform or upgrade, there would be no distinction in quality.

Being able to transform a green quality Environnt Adaptation Device into a blue quality device, as an Interdiate chanic, she was already surpassing countless Advanced chanics and even School chanics.

Two separate blueprints, she managed to perfectly retain their individual features, sothing many School chanics couldn’t achieve, yet Chen Qing was still not satisfied.

To so extent, the inability of the two blueprints to be compatible upward was indeed due to Chen Qing’s lack of effort.

She didn’t at all consider that it might be due to the incompatibility of the blueprints themselves.

What a terrifying woman, more talented than others, more diligent, and now she even thought she wasn’t trying hard enough.

Just as Chen Qing was digesting her failure and preparing to fight again, the Internal Affairs Officer from the Island Master Mansion quietly arrived outside Chen Qing’s ship.

But before she could make herself known, she was restrained by the Superpower Vine on deck.

"I’m from the Island Master Mansion!! I’m not a bad person!!"

Facing the ever-tightening grip of the Superpower Vine, and turning red in the face unable to breathe, the Internal Affairs Officer quickly shouted her identity!
