People's Grand Voyage, I start a game with a ghost ship - Chapter 361

c361 Rusty steel

Outskirts of the Sea of ​​Miracles.

A behemoth was slowly moving forward, pulled by dozens of small boats, at a speed of about 15 knots.

If any player sees this scene, they will immediately recognize this ship as the Iron Ambition.

It’s just that it’s in a bit of a bad situation.

Except for the eye-catching thick gun barrel on the bow, most of the hull is covered with a light blue plastic film, almost completely covering the Iron Ambition.

If you look carefully, you will also find that the barrel is covered with rust, as if it has not been maintained for decades and has been severely corroded by sea water.

As for the blue plastic film, this is actually a piece of rare ship equipment. It functions like a twilight curtain and can shield against detection.

But since it is not invisible, other ships can still observe the Iron Ambition with the naked eye or telescopes as long as it is close.

But now, this ship’s equipment is being used as an isolation membrane, because a terrible plague broke out on the Iron Ambition.

…………

Inside the bridge.

“Cough! Cough! Bah!”

Yu Dawei coughed several times and didn’t stop until a rusty screw stained with engine oil came out of his mouth.

He picked up the engine oil barrel next to him, drank it down in one gulp, then burped and began to check his condition.

Yu Dawei (extraordinary)

Extraordinary Path: Mechanization [37%]

[Mechanization: Part of the body is transformed into machinery, replacing the original organs and tissues to function, but the functions may change, and there are significant individual differences in attributes and abilities. Gain the ability – mechanical body (moderate)]

———-

Status: Rust disease [moderate disease] ‘a large human body pattern, yellow’, height 174cm, weight 342KG

[Rust disease: a plague, a subspecies of death plague.

After infection, the body’s bones, organs, muscles and skin will gradually transform into mechanical parts, which will rust quickly and can be transmitted to surrounding living creatures or metals. The higher the grade of metal, the more difficult it is to rust.

It is currently a moderate disease, which will cause moderate mechanization, occasional decline in sanity, reduced mobility, -2 Constitution, -3 Agility, and -1 Perception.

Consuming motor oil can relieve symptoms, allow for quick recovery in a short period of time, and provide resistance due to high mental attributes. 】

Note: The death plague is a special plague that cannot be cured in normal ways. The patient will not die and will live in pain forever. The deadly plague subspecies is a variant of the deadly plague, and it is difficult for patients to die.

———-

Strength: (8) 12 (3149/16000)

Spirit: (8) 6 (9202/16000)

Agility: (7)5 (429/8000)

Constitution: (8) 10 (792/16000)

Perception: (9) 10 (6819/32000)

[ps: The basic attributes are in parentheses]

Sanity: 83/100

energy:-/-

Qi and blood: 100/100

Magic element: 4/4

Talents: Eagle Eye, Firepower

Spells: None

Ability: Mechanical body

[Mechanical body (moderate): Immune to most diseases, no longer needs food, reduced pain perception, strength +4, agility +1, constitution +4, spirit -2.

Infinite energy, -50% upper limit of magic energy, weakened mood swings, and high mental attributes with resistance.

It can consume engine oil, gasoline, metal, coal, magic stones and other items. The mechanical body needs regular maintenance and cannot regenerate and repair itself. It needs to consume coal, gasoline, magic stones and other items regularly for energy, otherwise it will shut down. 】

“Mechanization has deepened by another 1%…” Yu Dawei said to himself.

Now less than half of his body has been transformed into machinery, including his left eye, left brain, some internal organs, left hand and half of his left leg.

“Zhang Zhi!” Yu Dawei said, his voice sounding like rusty metal rubbing against each other, which made people feel uncomfortable.

“exist!”

Zhang Zhi responded quickly and came over, still wearing his iconic glasses.

But his body was also mechanized, but not as severely as Yu Dawei’s. Only his two ears disappeared and turned into two thicker antennas with red light at the ends, which were also covered with rust.

“How are the critically ill patients in the cabin?” Yu Dawei asked.

“It has completely lost the ability to communicate, has difficulty moving, and is full of hostility to approaching non-mechanical bodies.” Zhang Zhi replied.

Yu Dawei frowned, and the only half of his face showed fatigue.

“Captain, I think these people have no value anymore. It’s better to scrap them and use them for gashapon.”

Zhang Zhi suggested as the adjutant, but Yu Dawei ignored it and just silently stretched out his left hand, opened it with his mechanized index finger, and a cigar popped out.

He first smelled the cigar, cut off the cap with the muzzle that could be opened and closed in the palm of his hand, and then inserted it into the temple of the left side of his head.

Electric sparks shot out and the cigar was instantly lit.

Yu Dawei took a deep breath, spit it out after a few seconds, and then asked another question.

“How is the infection situation of other team members?”

Zhang Zhi didn’t reply immediately. The two antennas on his head flashed red, as if they were exchanging information, and then he replied.

“Three more people are sick.”

“Where are the hazmat suits and beak masks?”

“It’s all in place, but…”

Zhang Zhi didn’t say everything, but Yu Dawei’s meaning was already clear.

That means all members are likely infected, but they are currently in the incubation period, and many people have not yet developed the disease.

And this means of isolation and protection may be useless.

The bridge was quiet for a few minutes until Yu Dawei finished smoking a cigar and issued new instructions.

“Pass my order to sink the Iron Heart, and then place all the seriously ill patients on another wooden ship, and head to the Sunless Sea at full speed!”

“What?”

Zhang Zhi was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide, revealing his metal teeth.

“Don’t make me say it a second time.

This broken ship has been severely rusted and lost power. If it continues like this, it will only slow down the progress!” Yu Dawei said decisively.

“Yes!”

Zhang Zhi quickly turned serious and turned to make arrangements.

Only Yu Dawei stayed on the bridge.

He wanted to smoke another one, but he held back, and his mind was full of scenes from a month ago.

As the player group said, the Brotherhood of Steel followed the clues and took down the headquarters of a pirate group, seizing a large amount of supplies, even enough to upgrade the Iron Heart to level five.

But adventures are always accompanied by various accidents.

When counting the spoils, they found a huge metal safe. It was not known how long it had been there. It was severely rusted. It was wrapped in a special leather material on the outside. It was partially damaged and painted with the pattern that Yang Yi had seen in the holy box.

(A handsome man wrapped in a robe, with his eyes covered and his left hand hidden in the robe.)

Yu Dawei took some effort to lead the team members to blow up the safe with artillery and release the rusted robot locked inside.

At the same time, the system prompted them to find clues to the Steam Island, and then the two sides fought a fierce battle.

After paying 20% ​​casualties, the Brotherhood of Steel won the victory with difficulty, blowing up the rusty robot to only half of its head, and obtained the key clues about the Steam Island by reading the information left in the robot’s brain.

This robot was actually a player.

[….. There is only one way to cure the deadly plague, that is to eliminate the source of infection?

How is this possible? Where in the world is there such a disease?

Do you really think I read books for nothing?

Go to hell!

Bang! (Gunshot)

This mediocre doctor with no skills is useless. I won’t die!

I have to find another doctor quickly. There must be other ways…】

Yu Dawei got sick the moment he picked up the mechanical head. His left hand became mechanized and he obtained the information with the help of a cable connection.

And after he got sick, he had a feeling that there seemed to be something in a certain direction that was responding to him.

That might be the source of the rust disease.
