The afterglow of the setting sun spilled onto the deck of the yacht, reflecting a layer of golden light.
Lin Zeyu's yacht was named Huan Yu, the same one he had used to hunt Abyss Tide Worms at Gardenia Beach.
The name of the yacht was a bit grand, and it truly was one of the larger ones with a length of 26 meters and a double deck.
Originally, it was a luxury yacht full of entertainment value, but unfortunately, Lin Zeyu had wrecked its shape.
Last time, while hunting Abyss Tide Worms, several parts had been severely damaged.
After returning, Lin Zeyu had taken the yacht straight to the dock for modifications, adding armor around the outer ring.
The original entertainment facilities were all removed, creating more space for storing supplies and weapons.
In short, the vessel was now an armored yacht.
This yacht's cruising speed was over 20 knots, or 36 kilometers per hour, and could reach up to 28 knots at full speed.
Departing from Coastal Port to the sea area where Corpse Bone Birds appeared, the distance was 250 nautical miles or about 463 kilometers.
It would take half a day to get there.
Thus, the Huan Yu yacht set sail in the afternoon and reached the target area by midnight.
During the trip, except for the on-duty personnel, everyone else had gone back to their cabins to sleep.
The night passed uneventfully.
Lu Heng got out of bed, went up to the second deck, and watched the red sun rise from the east as he stretched lazily.
"Would you like some soy milk? It's hot." Su Muyu handed him a cup of freshly heated soy milk and slowly finished her own.
"Have you been on a ship before?" Lu Heng took the soy milk and asked casually.
Su Muyu shook her head. "No, this is my first time at sea."
Her family's financial situation wasn't good when she was young, and she had never left her hometown, let alone been to sea.
This was also her first time on such a luxurious yacht.
"Do you get seasick?" Lu Heng asked.
Su Muyu shook her head again. "No, and since our Constitution is so much stronger than that of ordinary people, even if I did get seasick, the reaction should be minimal, right?"
Lu Heng nodded in agreement and then brought up the main topic. "From today, you'll need to use the scouting eagle to observe the surrounding ocean area to see if you can find any Corpse Bone Birds."
Su Muyu pursed her lips and asked, "The ocean is so vast, is there any way to find the Corpse Bone Birds, or is it just luck?"
"It's mostly just luck, but if I must suggest a method, finding dead large ocean creatures works too. You can follow the trail of marine carcasses, which increases the chances of encountering Corpse Bone Birds." Lu Heng looked up and finished his soy milk, and Su Muyu took the cup from him.
The ocean was too vast; not to mention a single Corpse Bone Bird, even if a naval fleet hid in the ocean, satellites couldn't find it.
So, finding Corpse Bone Birds did indeed require some luck.
Relatively speaking, with Lu Heng around, locating Corpse Bone Birds should be simpler.
He had marked a circle on the ocean map, and searching within this range should suffice.
The circle was a bit large, though, so finding them still required a bit of luck.
Over the next three days, the Huan Yu drifted at sea, cruising at a speed of 20 knots.
Originally, the yacht could stay at sea for seven days.
This meant if it were navigating in a straight line, it would need to return by the fourth day.
However, Lin Zeyu had all the entertainment facilities removed, and the space was used to store food and fresh water.
Thus, the duration of the voyage stretched from seven days to twelve days.
After drifting for three days, the team encountered another ship.
They exchanged greetings and learned that the other party was also searching for Corpse Bone Birds.
The authority had already issued a bounty, and although the bounty amount wasn't high, Corpse Bone Birds were high-level Abyss Creatures and had significant value.
Hence, more than one Superpower User team was searching for Corpse Bone Birds.
On the afternoon of the fourth day,
Lin Zeyu set up a grill on the deck, had people dive to catch a few fish to grill, and even opened a bottle of red wine, thoroughly enjoying the sea breeze.
When Lu Heng came up to the deck, he saw Lin Zeyu had just prepared the fish and took it away from him directly.
Lin Zeyu was just about to eat when his fish was snatched away; his sunglasses nearly fell off.
"Hey! At least leave me half?" he swallowed saliva, craving fresh fish after many days.
Su Muyu ran up briskly, pointing towards the left side of the ship, "Another ship over there."
"It seems there are quite a few teams hunting Corpse Bone Birds, let me check." Lin Zeyu stood up, picked up a pair of binoculars, and looked in the direction Su Muyu was pointing.
After a while, he complained in an annoyed tone, "Damn, it's a ship from the Wolf Pack."
Lu Heng had heard the name of this Superpower User team; this group called "Wolf Pack" was quite famous in later years, backed by big capital and very powerful.
"From your tone, do you have a feud?"
"Kind of. It's not too big, not too small. The Wolf Pack is a security company's Superpower User team under Chunshang Group. Previously, they poached several of my people without any respect." Lin Zeyu said angrily.
As Abyss Descent entered its third month,
All around the world, every conglomerate, power, and family started to develop their Superpower User teams.
Anyone whose brain wasn't rusted could see that in the future, whoever controlled extraordinary power would hold the authority.
Therefore, any power that hadn't started training Superpower User teams by now would soon be phased out.
As a result, all conglomerates and powers were spending heavily to recruit potential Superpower Users.
