Chapter 206: Chapter 179: What Exactly Was Her Raft Equipped With This Time?

Rowan Rhodes began opening chests at this moment specifically to find a way to deal with Harold Thompson and his group.

The Fish Spear Gun’s attack range and power were limited. It was fine for killing marine creatures, but slightly lacking when it came to dealing with Harold Thompson and his group’s rafts. So, Rowan Rhodes wanted to see if she could get the blueprint for the Vortex Torpedo.

With a Vortex Torpedo, just one shot would be enough to intimidate them into staying. Otherwise, they might actually use the sea zone mechanics of the Sea Survival Game to escape. Thus, during the journey, Rowan Rhodes handed complete command over to Seabird One and the others while she continuously unboxed items.

Rowan Rhodes unboxed plenty of valuable items during this spree, but she was in no mood to examine them. Finally, after opening another chest, she spotted the blueprint for the Vortex Torpedo. The moment she saw it, she immediately began to unlock it.

[Vortex Torpedo: 3 Titanium Ingots + 2 pieces of magnetite + 2 gunpowder + Blueprint]

With the resources and the blueprint on hand, the Vortex Torpedo Equipment instantly lit up as craftable. Looking at the newly crafted Vortex Torpedo in her inventory, Rowan Rhodes immediately equipped it. As soon as it was ready, she headed to the control room.

The radar continuously scanned the area, with Harold Thompson’s green dot showing up as the largest on the screen. After locking onto him, Rowan Rhodes hit activate.

In the next instant, the Vortex Torpedo she had just equipped shot out like a loose arrow, hurtling toward Harold Thompson’s raft with a SWOOSH.

Meanwhile, Harold Thompson was busy repairing the gaps left by the Fish Spear Gun attacks. As he worked, he couldn’t help but curse. This was truly a one-sided massacre. Rowan Rhodes’s Fish Spear Gun could cause considerable damage to their rafts, but their own Fish Spear Gun attacks were like a mere tickle against hers.

This stark contrast caused his stress levels to skyrocket. He could sense that far more Fish Spear Gun attacks were raining down on his raft compared to the others. He was certain that this was rigged!

However, Harold Thompson didn’t dare to voice these complaints in the District 122 world channel. He had finally realized the consequences of his loose lips. Rowan Rhodes wasn’t just targeting them for what happened today; she had remembered everything he had done in the past.

During this short chase, Harold Thompson recalled his former disdain for her, realizing he had crossed the line quite a few times. Back then, he had been consumed by jealousy, envy, and resentment! Who could have predicted that Rowan Rhodes’s progress would leave everyone else in the dust? She had grown to the point where players across the entire server looked up to her.

He felt he had rarely spoken ill of her lately, yet she still held a grudge. If only he had known... but a thousand gold couldn’t buy hindsight!

Fortunately, he had previously spent a fortune to unlock additional backpack slots. Although he had suffered heavy losses, he still had quite a bit of savings. Most notably, he had kept several reward chests unopened. By leaving them unopened in his inventory, an entire stack only occupied a single slot. These savings were more than enough for him to make a comeback.

The most important thing now was to escape. Judging by the distance, they were almost there!

Just as this thought crossed his mind, he suddenly felt his raft violently shudder. It felt as if something had slammed right into his vessel.

BOOM!

With a massive explosion, the entire raft blew apart. Harold Thompson was blasted against the Wood Wall of his raft before crashing heavily onto the deck. His head spun with a severe bout of dizziness.

[The raft has suffered severe damage and has a probability of being completely destroyed. Please repair it promptly.]

[Note: If the raft is destroyed, the player dies.]

Facing the flashing red warning on his control panel, Harold Thompson immediately healed himself and frantically mobilized resources to repair the raft. He couldn’t care about anything else right now. His very life depended on it!

After catching his breath, Harold Thompson stood up. Looking at his bare raft, which was now only slightly better than its primitive starting state, he was completely dumbfounded.

What had just happened?

But Harold Thompson wasn’t the only one confused. The other players who watched helplessly as his raft sustained severe damage were equally bewildered. Pairs of eyes quickly locked onto Rowan Rhodes’s raft.

What on earth had she equipped on her vessel this time?
