"Bang!"
Within the High-Dimensional Unknown Space, the control console of the Arbitration Tribunal erupted with a blinding burst of sparks.
The Executive Officer stared fixedly at the large screen before him, his entire body trembling violently.
On the screen, the dense cluster of red dots that had originally represented the "S-Class Symbiotic Embryos"...
Was now completely dark.
Not a single one remained.
"Eaten…"
"Over fourteen thousand High-Dimensional Psionic Embryos, all devoured raw by that broken gun of his?!"
The Executive Officer slammed his fist onto the control console, his eyes bloodshot, resembling a mad dog driven into a corner.
Those embryos were originally his trump cards, reserved for future use in creating the "Abyssal Beast Tide"!
Now, they had all become nourishment for Qin Yu's gun!
"Beep—!"
A shrill alarm sounded from the backend database.
The Executive Officer jerked his head up.
He saw that on the player data panel representing Qin Yu, the gray progress bar was steadily halted at 80%.
Only the final 20% remained.
Which was the last fragment of the [Ocean Soul Crystal Mother].
Once Qin Yu obtained it, he could completely reforge the "Ocean Soul Heart" and shatter this world's Underlying Code Barrier.
When that time came, the one to die would be him, the Executive Officer!
"Want the last fragment?"
The Executive Officer wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face twisting into an extremely distorted, insane, malicious grin.
"In your wildest dreams!"
His hands trembling, his ten fingers became a blur of motion on the keyboard.
Line after line of crimson underlying code was forcibly called up.
[Warning! You are modifying the generation rules of the 'Core Region'!]
[This operation will cause large-scale spatial disturbances. Continue?]
"Continue! Damn it, continue!"
The Executive Officer frantically hammered the enter key.
"Qin Yu, you like to snatch things, don't you? You think your firepower is fierce?"
"I'll shove the fifth fragment right into the very bottom of the 'Absolute Zero Trench'!"
"There's no buoyancy there, no light, even space itself is frozen solid."
"Let's see how your broken ship dives down there!"
Code scrolled wildly across the screen.
Still not satisfied, the Executive Officer directly opened the special biological editor.
He packaged and dumped every single most extreme, most savage Deep-Sea Aberration from the entire database into those coordinates.
"Not enough yet…"
The Executive Officer gnashed his teeth.
"Add the Area Anti-Magic Chain! Seal off all firepower output above S-Class!"
"I'll make sure you can go down, but never come back up!"
"Bang!"
He slammed down on the enter key.
Watching the coordinates labeled "Absolute Death Zone" generate on the large screen.
The Executive Officer let out a long, slow breath and collapsed into his leather chair.
"Qin Yu."
"The fifth fragment is right there."
"If you have the guts, come and get it."
...
At the same time.
On the deck of the [President].
The sea breeze swept past, dispelling the last traces of gunpowder smoke.
With a flick of his wrist, Qin Yu stored the energy-overflowing [Kiss of Death] back into his Storage Space.
"Gurgle—"
Right in this moment of quiet, an untimely sound suddenly rang out.
Li Ruobing touched her flat, taut stomach, her pretty face flushing slightly.
"Husband, I'm hungry."
She wore a provocative tank top, leaning boldly against the newly installed S-Class Liquid Armor railing.
"Swinging that damn pipe wrench earlier drained all my energy."
Qin Yu turned his head, looking at Li Ruobing's figure that seemed ready to burst out, and couldn't help but laugh.
"What do you want to eat?"
Li Ruobing licked her red lips, her eyes gleaming with hunger.
"Meat."
"Big bites of meat, big gulps of liquor!"
Qin Yu snapped his fingers.
"Consider it done."
Having just instantly taken down Solomon, the second-ranked player on the global leaderboard, he had not only looted the Plunder Store but also emptied Solomon's private cold storage.
Inside were nothing but high-end ingredients.
"Qi Chun!"
Qin Yu shouted into the air.
"Bro! What's up?"
Qi Chun's head popped out from the edge of the Floating Fortress.
"Bring your fortress down, switch it to landing pad mode, and connect it to the President's deck."
Qin Yu waved his hand grandly.
"No fighting today."
"It's time to eat."
At the words "time to eat," the entire channel erupted.
In less than a minute, the Floating Fortress steadily descended onto the sea surface, connecting seamlessly with the deck of the President.
Together, they formed a massive open-air plaza on the sea, spanning a full five hundred square meters.
Yao Qian cheered, running barefoot in her White Silk Stockings straight out of the cockpit.
"Long live Brother-in-law! I want barbecue!"
Yao Xue followed helplessly behind, holding a freshly prepared bottle of medical disinfectant.
"Put your shoes on. There's still bloodstains on the deck—be careful of bacterial infection."
Yao Xue pushed up her nonexistent glasses, but the smile in her eyes was impossible to hide.
Chen Xiaoya had also snapped out of her daze, blushing as she sidled up to Yao Xue.
"Sister Yao Xue, let me help with the ingredients."
Qin Yu walked to the center of the plaza.
He directly pulled out from his Storage Space the [Fully Automatic Multi-Function Grill] that had been with him since his beginner days and was now upgraded to S-Class.
"Thud!"
The grill landed heavily, emitting the enticing warmth of charcoal.
Immediately after.
Qin Yu, like a magician, began pulling out items one crate after another.
[S-Class Deep-Sea Dragon Vein Snowflake Steak (100 pounds)]!
[S-Class Mutant King Crab (each weighing 50 pounds)]!
[SS-Class Glacier Spirits (one barrel)]!
Looking at the mountain of premium ingredients piled up.
Qi Chun's drool nearly dripped onto the deck.
"Holy shit, bro..."
Qi Chun swallowed hard.
"Ordinary players are still gnawing on moldy cassava, and we're already feasting like it's a state banquet?"
Qin Yu kicked Qi Chun in the butt.
"Less talk, more work. Come here and cut the meat."
"Got it!"
Qi Chun directly pulled out his S-Class High-Frequency Oscillation Tactical Knife, which he had exchanged for hundreds of thousands of Plunder Value.
"Buzzzz—"
The tactical knife was used to slice the steak.
The cuts were as smooth as works of art.
Li Ruobing was even more straightforward.
She didn't even bother with the pipe wrench, grabbing a king crab the size of a washbasin with her bare hands.
With the power of her Exoskeleton Armor activated.
"Crunch!"
The hard crab shell was torn open by her sheer strength.
Revealing the snow-white, plump crab meat inside.
"Refreshing!"
Li Ruobing grabbed a piece of crab meat and tossed it into her mouth, squinting with satisfaction.
The aroma of barbecue soon spread through the sea breeze.
