Chapter 50: Giant mysterious neutral creature! Blizzard is coming!

~8 min read 1,404 words

Everyone watched with their own eyes as Su Yang swallowed the seal meat, their expressions varying.

When Liang Yong first suspected Su Yang, the first thing some people thought of was 'poisoning'.

It was just unexpected that Su Yang would eat the meat without hesitation, the process having not the slightest delay or hesitation.

Tian Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and facing Su Yang's appreciation for her cooking, she first said shyly, "The seasonings here are relatively simple, so I can't make it taste too good; if there were yellow wine or cooking wine, the taste would be better."

Then she looked at Liang Yong with a furious expression, "Su Yang has eaten the poisoned food, are you satisfied now?"

"Also, I've spent the longest time in the kitchen; if you suspect there's a problem with the meat, that's suspecting me!"

"It's not impossible." Liang Yong snorted coldly.

"Ungrateful wretch, Su Yang has done so much, has he had half a word of complaint? You've only done a little work and you're here pointing fingers; I suspect you're the traitor now!" Tian Yi's face was as cold as frost.

"Doing a lot doesn't mean he's a good person; everyone here could be a traitor. You and I are not related, everyone is fighting for themselves, what's wrong with questioning?" Liang Yong asked back.

Tian Yi's face turned blue and white, and just as she was about to strike back, she was interrupted by Qi Ming.

He knocked on the table hard and said in a deep voice, "Are you done yet? It's dinner time, both of you say less."

After the Captain spoke, the two finally stopped, but both were holding their breath, neither willing to give in.

Tian Yi knew in her heart that what Liang Yong said made sense, but his suspicion of Su Yang was equivalent to suspecting her.

The chef spends the longest time in the kitchen and doesn't let anyone get close during the cooking process.

If she wanted to poison them, everyone on this ship would be in trouble.

Therefore, Tian Yi was so angry.

With the small episode of arguing, the meal was finished in silence.

It should have been a happy and peaceful atmosphere, but Liang Yong ruined it directly.

However, this also made the players realize that this is not a game of working together to overcome difficulties.

The fundamental goal is to catch the traitor; they had forgotten this in their busyness.

"I'm finished." Su Yang wiped his mouth with paper and took his cup to pour water on the side.

"I'm finished too." Nan Xue Qing then stood up.

"Those who have finished eating, gather in the conference room, I'll arrange the tasks for the second day in a moment." Qi Ming said.

Su Yang walked toward the conference room, feeling the changes in his body along the way.

"The poison won't take effect immediately, it's estimated it will take a while."

He was very uneasy now, not knowing how toxic the poison was.

Growing up, the only time he had eaten something unclean, it led to food poisoning.

The result was vomiting and diarrhea, which directly turned into acute gastroenteritis, and he lay in the hospital for three days.

He would never forget that feeling in his life.

Now, entering the game himself, he didn't hesitate to risk the huge possibility of death to frame someone!

As for whether the person being framed is Liang Yong or Tian Yi, it depends on how they perform.

Arriving at the conference room, he saw Nan Xue Qing already sitting in her seat, a pair of straight, long legs resting on the table, feet crossed, chair leaning slightly back against the wall.

Her hands were playing with a dagger, and under the light, cold light flickered, and one could vaguely see the dried blood remaining on it.

"How was the harvest today?" Su Yang asked casually, sitting in his original seat.

"Shut up, I don't want to talk to you." Nan Xue Qing maintained her usual cold attitude, still holding a grudge about him approaching Jiang Yao and extracting information from her.

"Don't be so cold, what if you and I are allies?" Su Yang said with a smile.

Hearing this, Nan Xue Qing sneered, "I don't dare to have allies; if someone stabs me in the back, I'll lose my life."

Backstab?

Su Yang smiled, not refuting this.

He had indeed done this kind of thing many times.

Soon, everyone was full and gathered in the conference room.

Qi Ming pointed to the map and explained, "The ship's current position is still a few kilometers away from the central island, and tomorrow we can reach the next red material area."

"From the situation today, the neutral creatures are not as simple as snow rabbits and penguins; some of them possess powerful attack power."

"Therefore, the primary task for the second day is to solve the neutral creature on the central island."

Saying this, Qi Ming pointed to the fist-sized neutral sign on the map.

"This neutral creature is likely even more dangerous than the ice wolf, we must eradicate it to ensure the ship can continue to sail." Qi Ming said.

"Even fiercer than a wolf? Could it be a sea lion?" Jiang Yao's little brain moved.

"Sea lions are very aggressive, but they won't actively attack humans." Nan Xue Qing shook her head.

"Shark?" Liang Yong guessed.

"Does your shark live on land?" Tian Yi said irritably.

"Could it be a polar bear?" Su Yang asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's pupils shrank slightly.

They had overlooked the most important point: although this area does not belong to the Earth's geographical feature regions.

It doesn't mean there are no similar biological beasts; the ice wolf is the most typical example!

The temperature here is so low that it is entirely possible for giant beasts like polar bears to appear!

"Polar bears are the largest land carnivorous beasts on Blue Star, ordinary weapons are probably difficult to kill them." Nan Xue Qing frowned.

"So we must work together to solve the threat first." Qi Ming nodded and continued, "The materials we got today will be prioritized for the hunter and the gunman; you two make sure the arrows and bullets are sufficient."

"Okay." Nan Xue Qing nodded in agreement.

"Tomorrow's route is very simple, after the neutral creature is solved, the engineer goes to the left material area to move coal, and the doctor and hunter go to the left as usual."

"The navigator goes to the central island's wrecked ship to get materials, the chef and priest continue to kill neutral creatures to get meat, and the gunman goes to the right red material area to get materials."

"Any questions?" Qi Ming asked.

Everyone had no objections to this distribution; the Captain could be considered to have brought out the advantages of each profession.

"Those who came back late today should have noticed that the wind and snow are getting bigger and bigger; this should be a trend that increases with time." Qi Ming looked at Su Yang.

Su Yang nodded and said, "The temperature is also getting lower and lower; at this rate, we will probably face a blizzard in three days."

"Blizzard... is it very powerful?" Jiang Yao asked, puzzled.

"Once a blizzard forms, everyone on this ship will die here." Qi Ming said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Tian Yi immediately thought of the corpses pressed by the wind and snow, and couldn't help but shiver.

"Then we must speed up the progress."

"Yeah, after the engineer brings back the coal tomorrow, I will start the ship immediately, striving to reach the iceberg by evening." Qi Ming nodded slightly.

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something and looked at Nan Xue Qing, asking, "How is the fuel replenishment situation?"

"I'll go check in a moment." Nan Xue Qing said.

"Alright, everyone worked hard all day, go back and rest early, remember to lock the doors." Qi Ming used his military sword to draw a line on the material area that had already been collected.

Just as Su Yang stood up, his stomach felt a sharp pain, his face instantly turned blue and purple, and his body fell heavily to the ground.

"Bang!"

"Su Yang?!" Seeing this, Tian Yi's face changed drastically. ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
