Chapter 107 - Harvest
Chapter 107 – Harvest
“I’m just too cool! My performance was perfect!”
When Chen Yu arrived back onto the deck, a pleasant feeling coursed through his body.
“Mr. Chen, how many points did you earn for this livestream?” Little Peach asked as she approached Chen Yu while carrying the crystal ball.
Sitting cross-legged on the deck and leaning his back against the railing, Chen Yu raised his wrist and made a few swipes across his watch. He then laughed and said, “Fifty-four points! What a harvest! My subscriber count is continuously increasing.”
“With so many points, we can finally buy a new laptop,” Little Peach said, her eyes glowing with excitement. “Our current laptop’s performance is too poor. It takes too much time to test software.”
“Once I see a laptop available in the Transdimensional Store, I’ll immediately get it for you,” Chen Yu generously declared.
“That’s wonderful! Can you take a look at the store now?”
…
Whoosh—
Whoosh— Whoosh— Whoosh—
Amidst the howling winds, the island-building ship’s acceleration came to a halt as the ship started sailing steadily in a straight line.
Sensing that the ship’s speed had stabilized, Chen Yu stood up and removed his mask. He then looked at the metal sliding door that led below deck.
Previously, during the livestream, it was inconvenient for him to head downstairs. Now that the livestream was over, he could finally take his time strolling and exploring this industrial ship from the future.
Approaching the door, Chen Yu stretched out his hand and pulled the handle on it. However, the door remained motionless.
“Captain, every internal hatch is under ‘Dimwit”s control. Do you wish to open the door?”
“Yes.”
As soon as Chen Yu said so, the metallic door soundlessly slid to a side, revealing a staircase downstairs. At the same time, the lights along the staircase also lit up.
While touring the ship’s interior together with Little Peach, Chen Yu discovered that there was plenty of free space inside the ship.
There were two large dining rooms, one small dining room, two kitchens, three large halls, four small lounges, at least 15 bedrooms that came with personal bathrooms, one medium-sized swimming pool, one gym, and 12 empty rooms of varying sizes…
The island-building ship was basically a low-cost cruise ship.
The only thing missing were decorations and furniture.
“If we combined this ship with the portal…we can use it as a secret base!” Chen Yu was much delighted as he returned to the uppermost cabin.
Initially, he had been considering whether he should recycle this island-building ship for other more useful technology. However, looking at it now, even if he set aside the ship’s ability to build islands, the ship still had plenty of uses.
“Dimwit, according to your previous introduction, you said this ship is capable of diving. How deep can it go exactly?”
“The IAI03 Island-building Ship isn’t a specialized submersible vessel, so it can only dive down to a depth of 1,300 meters.”
“A depth of 1,300 meters… Okay. Once we sail into deep waters, dive down to a depth of roughly 1,000 meters in a moment. At that depth, no satellite would be able to find it.”
“Dive down to 1,000 meters once we enter deep waters. Affirmative. Command has been included in the planning sequence,” the ship’s AI responded mechanically.
…
Jinzhou City, 3.30 PM:
Stepping through the Interstellar Portal, Chen Yu arrived back at his room with an empty stomach. Throwing himself onto his bed, he grumbled, “I’m exhausted.”
The livestream today was his longest one yet.
After entering the room, Little Peach shut the door and disconnected the spatial link. She then asked, “Mr. Chen, do you want me to set the island-building ship’s coordinates for Quick Teleport?”
“Mhm. Huh? Since when did you become so sensible?” Vaguely feeling that something was amiss, Chen Yu hurriedly got out of bed and approached the Interstellar Portal. When he saw the location displayed on the portal’s interface, his complexion immediately darkened.
“You set the teleport destination to the ship’s deck. Do you want me to get crushed by seawater as soon as I walk through the portal?”
“Oh!” Realization dawned upon Little Peach. Hurriedly, she adjusted the coordinates and set the teleport destination to be inside the ship’s cabin.
“…I’ve never believed in the movies say robots would one day destroy the human race, but now I believe them.”
“I’m sorry. Ծ‸Ծ” Little Peach aggrievedly squeezed her cheongsam. She then consciously sat before the study table and started coding, sneaking glances at Chen Yu from time to time…
Chen Yu: “…”
Lying back onto his bed, Chen Yu slid his finger across his watch and entered the Transdimensional Store’s page, starting his most important work of the day.
Purchasing advanced technology!
Combined with the one leftover point he had, he now had a total of 55 points!
He could definitely exchange for relatively good products.
