When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean.-Chapter 334 - 230: Gathering Together

"Chen Qing, what’s going on with you! You arranged for people to meet, but then you disappeared yourself!"

Shang Jia was really angry now, and her words were not so polite towards Chen Qing.

She never expected that those old lifeless ones dared to reach into the Demon Dragon Pirate Group!

People from the Demon Dragon Pirate Group also went missing.

Not just one.

Shang Jia was originally prepared to charge into those families’ hideouts, but Xue Po forcefully stopped her.

The people behind this dared to attack the Demon Dragon Pirate Group, so they must have some support, and this matter needs careful planning.

Moreover, speaking out about this is indeed quite embarrassing.

Just as Chen Qing came looking for them, Shang Jia used Chen Qing’s name to inquire.

Well, it turns out, it’s not just the Demon Dragon Pirate Group that’s embarrassed.

But everyone felt it was too embarrassing, so they all covered up the news unanimously and only investigated privately.

In just five days, no less than a hundred people disappeared, some of whom might actually be dead.

After gathering information, Shang Jia immediately contacted Chen Qing, but couldn’t reach her no matter what.

She suspected Chen Qing had also disappeared, so she led her group to the reef area.

She happened to encounter Shuangwei and Chen Cheng, who also couldn’t contact Chen Qing and came looking for her, and everyone reckoned that this was an abduction case targeting people like them.

Chen Miao’s disappearance corresponded not to Chen Cheng but to Chen Qing.

The people behind this kidnapped the soft spots of these Great Pirate Advanced Hunters and the survivor forces in the Deep Blue Sea, but no one knew the actual purpose yet.

No one asked them for ransom either.

As Shang Jia and the others rushed here, others simply arranged to meet together on reef island to thoroughly discuss the matter.

Hence, the pirates and pirate hunters held a grand conference together, creating an unprecedented spectacle on reef island.

The large commotion by these pirates and hunters attracted many eyes, with both red and blue factions watching to see what they were planning to do.

"I’m sorry."

Chen Qing apologized directly without explanation; it was indeed her issue.

"But... why is it so lively?"

Chen Qing looked at the originally empty sea surface, now filled with countless ships flying pirate flags.

Among these vessels were quite a few with blank flags; these were the pirate hunter’s ships.

Of course, there were also survivors among them.

Such a scene was really rare, with hunters and pirates unexpectedly allying together.

The originally peaceful reef island became bustling with the arrival of these people.

Javis and the others already had a business mindset; seeing this situation, they hit it off with He Cai and immediately started trading, rowing small boats in and out every day.

When Chen Qing stepped out, this was the grand scene she witnessed.

The proportion of scum among the pirates was very high, but due to the presence of the hunters, most did not dare act rashly.

Besides, with Shang Jia and You Gu both here, if they didn’t make a move, who would dare go first?

Isn’t this reckless?

"Let’s talk business first."

You Gu’s face did not look good; the one who disappeared from her ship was the ship doctor Dong Mi, a young guy who just boarded and was a relative of a fighter.

"Call them to come together, to my ship."

Shang Jia folded her arms, with a stern expression, took the initiative to say.

No eavesdropping or surveillance would exist on her ship.

"I’ll notify them."

Xue Po promptly stepped back, taking people to notify the other pirates and hunters.

"Did you break through to School Mechanic?"

Eluo was following beside Shang Jia, looking at Chen Qing with a complicated expression.

It hadn’t been long since they last met, right?

As he said, everyone couldn’t help but turn to look at Chen Qing. A breakthrough to School Mechanic?

If so, then Chen Qing’s disconnection and tardiness were excusable.

This wasn’t something she could control either.

"Mm."

Chen Qing nodded, not denying it.

"Well done, Chen Qing!"

Shang Jia raised her eyebrows, stronger than their own Eluo, but their Eluo was not bad either.

"What’s the school?"

Shuangwei asked curiously.

"Transcendent."

Chen Qing simply stated, without any intention of hiding.

There’s no need to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger; no one ever saw Chen Qing as a pig from the beginning.

"Do Mechanics have this school?"

There weren’t many Mechanics present, and those who were didn’t care much for mechanics, so they naturally didn’t understand the depths of it.

After Chen Qing spoke, Eluo’s gaze became even more complicated.

A Transcendent Mechanic.

The Captain and others might not understand, but she, as a Mechanic, knew, didn’t she.

The threshold for advancing to Transcendent Mechanic is high, and the difficulty for a Transcendent School Mechanic to advance to Cangming is a multiple time harder than other schools!

One is level 100, the other is level 500.

This level 500 is not simply a matter of being five times more difficult.

"..."

Eluo didn’t know what expression to use to face Chen Qing now and pulled out a stiff smile.

No doubt, Chen Qing seriously hit Eluo hard.

Eluo couldn’t even muster any intentions to compete with Chen Qing.

Chen Qing was stronger than any student in the history of the Mechanical College.

Stronger than all the Mechanics of the Mechanical Association.

Shang Jia noticed Eluo’s dejection, glanced at Chen Qing, it seems Chen Qing hit their little Eluo quite hard.

She had to ask You Zeqi to guide him properly later.

After Eluo mentioned School Mechanic, the pirates and hunters looked somewhat subtly at Chen Qing.

Goodwill and malice were mixed with much curiosity.

They were very curious about what’s different about the Transcendent Mechanic Chen Qing mentioned from other School Mechanics.

Some people among them had heard about it, but they didn’t understand.

The emotions in the gaze of the Mechanics present toward Chen Qing were very complex, and even the hunters and pirates next to them could feel it.

"What’s so great about this Transcendent Mechanic?"

"How is it different from other School Mechanics?"

A hunter nudged the Mechanic beside him and asked.

They’re all Mechanics, how much different could they be?

"The Transcendent School compared to other schools... roughly like the gap between you and Shang Jia before."

The Mechanic who was asked answered quietly, living in the same era with such a peerless genius really made people uncomfortable.

Envy, jealousy, and also hatred!

"...Can you watch your words!"

The hunter who asked was choked by the Mechanic’s answer, and instantly displeased.

What do you mean by comparing her to Shang Jia; is there a huge gap between her and Shang Jia?!

Ah???

"... Is it really that big?"

After a moment of silence, the hunter was unwilling to give up and continued asking.

They’re all professions; how come other schools are like adopted children?

"Shut up."

The Mechanic on You Gu’s ship really didn’t want to bother with him anymore. The gap with Chen Qing was already huge, and now he kept probing the sore point.

Who exactly couldn’t speak!

Everyone else learned from the conversation between these two about the specialness of Chen Qing’s Transcendent School.

It won’t take long before they’ll get to witness how strong the Transcendent School Mechanic truly is!

Everyone followed Shang Jia onto the Demon Dragon Ship. Compared to Chen Qing’s Mechanical Ship, the Demon Dragon Ship looked like a regular old sailing ship with nothing special about it.

However, that was just the surface; some things couldn’t be shown to them, right?

Just like how Chen Qing wouldn’t reveal the secrets of her Mechanical Ship to others.

From the moment they boarded, they felt there was something strange aboard the Demon Dragon Ship.

The ship’s walls and floors were all inscribed with runes they had never seen before, eerie and mysterious.

But judging from the crew’s state on the Demon Dragon Ship, they seemed used to it?

Or perhaps the Demon Dragon Ship was only targeting them, these strangers?

Chen Qing reckoned it was probably the latter.
