On the fourteenth day, the number of people gathered successfully exceeded 10,000. If it weren't for Su Hao's worry that the ship would not be able to fit anymore, if he waited any longer, it would be no problem to double the number of people.

That night, most of the game participants met together and listened to Su Hao's allocation of personnel and action plan arrangement.

Except for the destroyer and the cruise ship, the other ships were almost grounded, so they were not afraid of being attacked by some large sea monsters. But countless small but equally dangerous creatures roam around the ship at any time, and without doing anything about them, their thrilling appearance alone is quite terrifying. This makes every game participant clearly aware of the danger of the sea, although everyone on the third floor must obey Su Hao's orders, but Su Hao's actual action arrangement determines whether they can inspire their fighting spirit and give full play to their due strength.

"We've been able to pinpoint the location of the drop chamber, so we don't have to move separately."

Su Hao's first sentence erased everyone's worries about the "death squad", and the entire pre-war mobilization meeting was carried out in a relaxed and even somewhat humorous situation.

All of them were assigned equally to the ship according to their abilities and specialties, and served as the ship's leading group. And for the third-tier game participants with more than seventy percent of the number of professional soldiers, Su Hao doesn't have to worry about their lack of execution at all.

Qiu Yu and the others were naturally not in Su Hao's assignment. Su Hao also made it clear that all of Qiu Yu's actions were arranged by himself, and all the arrangements on the third floor would take the initiative to give way if there was a conflict with Qiu Yu.

With such words, Qian Xiao wanted to use the destroyer as a special pilot for several people, but Qiu Yu chose the dilapidated cruise ship. As a cruise ship with nearly half of the carrying force, it is naturally impossible to give them a few monopolies, so Su Hao took the opportunity to demote a white major general who was originally the captain of the cruise ship to the deputy captain, and handed over a boatload of people to Qiu Yu to be in charge.

Seeing that Qiu Yu did not refuse this, Su Hao immediately moved the headquarters originally scheduled to be placed on the destroyer to the cruise ship, and the deputy captain, who had just been demoted, was completely squeezed out of the ranks of captains.

If the unified action is the antidote to everyone's anxiety, what really gives them confidence in this operation is the guarantee of security.

Technological artifacts such as strong ships, artillery, missiles, and radars can make this operation safe, but these technological creations are definitely not the only means to ensure safety. There is no perfection in the universe, so there are no troubles that cannot be solved by non-technological means.

This method doesn't even need to be said by Su Hao, many people have already discovered it themselves - the vast majority of creatures, no matter how hideous they look, no matter how ferocious they are, they are afraid of those red seaweeds. Just hanging a circle around the boat is as effective as using an insecticide to repel mosquitoes and flies.

Although the radiation of red seaweed has the same effect on everyone, according to Qian Xiao's investigation, as long as the people living in this world do not directly consume red seaweed, or the amount of red seaweed reaches a terrifying level, then the close contact of the month will not affect them much.

And although the participants of the game will have damage to the nervous and immune systems, failure is death, and victory is super treatment by regulators, so there is no problem at this point.

The subordinates will always have to obey, and when these superiors to them end the meeting, the whole journey is decided.

Truckloads of flour, jerky, drinking water, and even fruits such as oranges, whose skins were three or four times thicker than before, were transported by small boats to ships.

This is also a test of the protective effect of red seaweed, and at the same time, let these "mercenaries" see for themselves that the sea is not as terrible as they say.

The boats were all covered with a layer of fishing nets, and as they moved, scattered red seaweed was hung into the nets. Something like a miniature crocodile was cruising around the boat at first, ready to do something, but after the boat was surrounded by red seaweed, they stayed at least ten meters away from the boat.

The mercenaries, who were all tempted by a rush of enthusiasm or high rewards, were motivated again after seeing this simple and effective method, and in less than half a day, they completed the loading of all the items in the most primitive way.

After Qian Xiao got on the cruise ship first, he sighed for a long time, this luxury cruise ship, which should have been enjoyed only by the rich level, has become like a long-abandoned steel factory, full of rust. Some steel stairs that look stable will make a squeaky sound like a suspension bridge when they go up, of course, this refers to the situation where Li Ningfeng and Qiu Yu are walking on them, when Qian Xiao walks, a large piece of rust begins to fall off, not to mention, the junction of the stairs will also make a metal cracking sound from time to time.

However, the overall structure of the hull is quite stable, and although the outermost compartment is damaged, the hull is still intact, at least it has not leaked into it. The warehouse inside, except for some bullet holes left by the monsters or nomads that were probably the third floor of the gamer's clean-up here, is basically intact.

Qian Xiao and Li Ningfeng immediately gave full play to the advantages of the privileged class, and chose the two most central luxury suites as residences for a few people, although they are far from luxury now, but at least the central location ensures that this is the safest place on the entire ship.

And Qiu Yu is seriously studying the deployment of defense in one place and another, no matter what, after getting on the ship, his life is almost linked to here, and the most trusted thing can only be his own arrangement.

This cruise ship is more than 300 meters long, more than 2,000 cabins, and it is no problem to squeeze 10,000 people, and the current plan is only to accommodate 5,000 people, that is, to remove the damaged places, 5,000 people are enough to live very comfortably, but on the contrary, it seems a little overstretched to treat this place as a fortress with a solid defense. In Qiu Yu's plan, there are people watching every corner of the ship at all times. Otherwise, maybe some perverted creature will come on board and kill everyone in the same perverted way.

After some trade-offs, Qiu Yu arranged 6 groups of 30 people around the chimney on the top of the ship, and equipped with a corresponding number of binoculars, five heavy machine guns, and ten sniper rifles to monitor the whole ship and the surrounding sea, and be able to make a powerful attack at the first time. And the arrangement of the six groups of people allows everyone's physical strength and concentration to be kept in the best state at any time.

In addition, there are corresponding people on the decks of each other floor, not to mention, the outermost circle of cabins, whether good or bad, is not allowed to be occupied, and all are used for the arrangement of sentry posts.

Finally, Qiu Yu also set up four mobile teams with the game participants in the third layer as the core, which can be used to solve emergencies on the ship at any time. The members of these four mobile teams also happened to be the result of Su Hao's elite selection.

After making all these arrangements, Qiu Yu was still not at ease, and handed over other defensive supplementary work to Su Hao, after all, his temporary plan would never be as good as that of a professional in this area.

After the internal arrangement is almost done, it is a matter of routes. Although there were maps made by nomads that pointed out the general direction of the City of Ashes, although Su Hao mobilized his forces to find any maps of the islands that might be the original form of the City of Ashes. But the former points in the direction of going to sea and cannot be relied on at all. And the latter, but it is even more frustrating, any map that Su Hao collects has at least a dozen places indicated, it may be the location of the City of Ashes, dozens of maps together are put aside from the duplication, and in the direction pointed by the map of the upstream people, there are at least twenty possible islands. The nearest is only a few tens of kilometers, and the farthest is nearly 10,000 kilometers. Whether it is time, conditions or energy, it is impossible to confirm them one by one. So the final course is still only the pet that relies on Qiu Yan.

On the morning of the sixteenth day, with the destroyer at the head, the cruise ship behind, and other ships of all sizes guarding the formation around the two ships, the whole expeditionary party was fully prepared to set off, the only thing missing was the direction of advance.

Under the watchful eye, Qiu Yan slowly came to the guest deck on the top floor of the cruise ship, and her pet, like a competent servant, followed her step by step.

This strange combination made nearly 10,000 pairs of eyes look unbelievable. It's full of excellent warriors who have been fighting in the wilderness for a long time, and if they haven't seen the powerful monsters that destroyed Belgondor with their own eyes, at least they've heard of it.

Now it is enough to see this kind of monster, which has been described by various legends as being as powerful and evil as demons, suddenly appear in a position close to him, but compared to this, such a monster is actually tamed like an honest puppy...... This is completely beyond their comprehension, and in their opinion, it is far more outrageous than having rats replace camels to carry things for humans.

But something even more outrageous is yet to come.

After Qiu Yan walked to the side of the boat with the humanoid monster, he didn't say anything, just pointed to the sea dozens of meters below. The monster with no low intelligence understood Qiu Yan's meaning in an instant, but perhaps because it was too smart, it thought that this was Qiu Yan's temptation of it, so it stood more and more honestly and motionless.

Qiu Yan was naturally quite dissatisfied with this situation, and still didn't say anything, and quietly walked behind the humanoid monster. The shock in tens of thousands of eyes had just turned into a moment of incomprehension, Qiu Yan kicked the waist of the humanoid monster, and in a sharp wail, this poor guy flew straight in the air for more than thirty meters before drawing a parabola and falling heavily into the sea, a few meters high, as if a missile had exploded just now.
