Everyone survives in the ocean, I pick up a goddess for vacation Chapter 014

“Teacher Tian!” Lin Hao suddenly snapped back to reality and said to Tian Youyou, “Please get on the boat first! We’ll go after Classmate Chu Xi together!”

What kind of joke was this? A beauty with [ 97] above her head was floating away right before his eyes? Absolutely not!

“Classmate Lin Hao, shouldn’t we split up to search for supplies more efficiently now? If all three of us are on one boat, wouldn’t the search range be greatly reduced?” Tian Youyou asked, puzzled.

“Teacher Tian, you worry too much!” Lin Hao showed a confident smile, “Look at my boat, and this thruster, can ordinary people make something like this in a short time? With Xia Yingluo and my abilities, we don’t lack supplies at all! Come on board, and we can also look out for each other.”

He paused, adding a crucial point to dispel Tian Youyou’s last concerns: “Besides, your ability to make a raft won’t disappear after you get on board, right? If you want to leave, you can just build another one anytime!”

With the conversation reaching this point, Tian Youyou found it hard to insist further.

“Alright… then, I’ll trouble you two. I hope you don’t mind me being a burden.”

She stretched out her hand, and with Xia Yingluo’s arm extended to her, she climbed onto the wooden boat with some effort.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully recruiting a beauty, unlocking “Sausage Supply”!]

Sausage Supply (Mythical): Automatically gain one sausage ( 35g) per second, stored in infinite space.

Lin Hao’s eye twitched uncontrollably.

One per second? 86, 400 per day? How long would it take to eat all of these?

But… if he couldn’t eat them all, he could sell them!

In this resource-scarce ghost place, food was hard currency!

This continuous supply of sausages… what was the difference between it and gold bars?

“Lin Hao!!” Xia Yingluo pointed at Chu Xi’s back, stomping her feet in a hurry, “What are you spacing out for! Start the boat! Chase her! She, she’s almost out of sight! If we don’t go now, we won’t catch her!”

“What are we afraid of with a thruster? Can her little raft be faster than us?” Lin Hao had a triumphant smile on his face as he unhurriedly walked to the stern of the boat, elegantly grabbing the starting rope and pulling it hard!

Boom—!!

The engine roared powerfully, kicking up large white waves at the stern of the speedboat, and the boat shot forward!

Xia Yingluo and Tian Youyou stumbled from the sudden thrust, but their faces showed a glimmer of hope.

However, this exhilarating roar lasted less than three seconds…

Pfft… cough… chug-chug-chug…

The engine made a sound like a dying struggle, and then completely died.

The surging power just now vanished without a trace.

On the sea, only the monotonous sound of waves lapping against the hull remained, sounding exceptionally clear.

Lin Hao’s smile froze on his face.

He maintained his slightly leaning-back posture after pulling the rope, his eyes fixed on the completely silent engine.

“Wh-what happened?!” The hope on Xia Yingluo’s face was instantly replaced by astonishment. She rushed to the stern in one swift motion, anxiously looking at Lin Hao.

Tian Youyou also looked over nervously, with a questioning gaze.

Lin Hao’s mouth twitched, and he slowly turned his head, awkwardly saying, “…No, no fuel.”

The air instantly solidified.

Xia Yingluo opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say.

Tian Youyou also silently shifted her gaze, looking at the almost disappearing shadow of the small raft in the distance.

The salty sea breeze blew past. After a brief silence, Xia Yingluo took a deep breath, as if making a great decision.

She walked up to Lin Hao, her voice muffled and filled with obvious self-reproach: “…I’m sorry.”

She quickly glanced at Lin Hao’s frozen face, then quickly lowered her head: “Just now… I was too impulsive, losing my temper… This, this is all my fault, it has nothing to do with you…”

Lin Hao recovered from the embarrassment of the engine dying. Hearing Xia Yingluo’s apology, he was somewhat surprised.

He looked at the eight-meter-long wooden boat, then looked at the direction where the small raft had long disappeared on the distant sea.

Rely on manual paddling? Not to mention catching up with that light and flexible small raft, just getting this heavy large boat to move would be tough.

He shrugged, and instead, smiled easily: “It’s not your fault. With her cold demeanor, I misunderstood her at first too.”

“Don’t worry, she can’t run away. We’ll meet again sooner or later,” he said with certainty, as if everything was under control.

Then, he turned to Tian Youyou: “Teacher Tian, you should have Chu Xi’s friend contact, right?”

Tian Youyou was looking at the two with concern. Hearing this, she quickly nodded: “Yes, yes! We communicate through the friend function, although she… can only type.”

“That’s good, having contact information is enough.”

He clapped his hands, and that confident smile returned to his face, as if the previous awkwardness had never happened.

“Alright, don’t frown. Everything will work out in the end. Let’s solve our hunger first. We’ll have the strength to think of solutions after we eat!”

With that, like magic, he waved his hand over the speedboat’s deck.

Whoosh—

A large pile of well-packaged food instantly piled up like a small mountain!

Bread, instant noodles, Sachima, mineral water… and most eye-catching of all, the pile of red-packaged sausages!

There were at least a hundred of them by estimation, gleaming temptingly in the sunlight.

“Heavens… heavens!” Tian Youyou’s eyes instantly widened, her mouth slightly agape, too shocked to speak a complete sentence.

She pointed at the pile of sausages, her fingers trembling slightly.

“Lin, Classmate Lin Hao! You… how is this sea survival?! This, this reserve… I’d believe you if you said you were on a luxury cruise for a picnic! You… where did you get so many sausages?!”

This sight completely exceeded her understanding of survival supplies.

The three of them sat around the food-laden deck, quietly eating, with the sound of waves as background noise.

Lin Hao took a bite of bread and casually asked, “Teacher Tian, if I may ask, what is the direction of your awakened talent? Would you mind sharing?”

Tian Youyou was taking small bites of a sausage. Hearing this, she paused her movements: “My talent… is of no use at all right now. It’s just… it can promote plant growth speed…”

Promote plant growth?

Lin Hao’s heart stirred, immediately thinking of the plant man he had met earlier.

But she said “of no use at all right now,” and she didn’t show any signs of inferiority or frustration.

This indicated that she clearly understood the value of her ability, but was just frustrated that she had no place to use it.

“Teacher Tian, you are too modest! When we find soil and seeds, that will be your time to shine!”

“I understand what you mean,” Tian Youyou said with a wry smile, “But now, we are drifting on the sea. There are all sorts of strange things in the trading channel, but no soil or seeds… I can’t even see a glimmer of hope.”

She paused, her voice lowering, with a teacher’s unique self-respect and a hint of embarrassment, “Teacher… teacher doesn’t want to keep eating and drinking for free from you…”

Seeing her anxious look, Lin Hao’s mouth curved into a smile; this was exactly what he was waiting for!
