After Online Dating with Unlimited Streaming BOSS - Chapter 49
“belch!”
The old man hiccupped and patted his stomach contentedly: “It’s been three months, and this is the first time I’ve had enough to eat. The future is terrifying!”
After being fed up with a belly of raw fish, he was looking for water everywhere, and he was drooling when he heard the sound of ice cubes hitting the glass at the party.
The old man patted Rong Yi on the shoulder: “The sun has set! Come with me.”
A group of people quietly disappeared into the shadow of the cabin along the side of the ship. Only Rong Yi couldn’t help looking back, wanting to see if the little boyfriend “also on the side of the boat” was coming.
However, apart from the jubilant crowd on the deck, there was still no one suspected of Ai Zhensheng.
She opened the communication interface.
Rong Yi: Where are you? I’m leaving you out.

On the sea where the sunset glowed red, a huge tentacle rose quietly and stretched out towards the side of the ship——
The old man coughed: “What a coincidence, I just met the three of you, and my nest can’t be filled with one more.”
Rong Yi: Wait, don’t come here, you can’t hide.
X: [Small Hand OK.jpg]
The tentacles turned around and slowly submerged into the water.
The old man did not take them down the ornate passage, but detoured to a dark and narrow doorway behind the cabin. It was dark inside, and it seemed that “this place can’t be entered”.
The old man climbed down the rusty stairs with a bang, followed by the three of them.
After his eyes gradually got used to the darkness, Rong Yi could see that it was probably a place like an engine room. All kinds of big machines that she didn’t know were working step by step, and the air was stuffy.
“Here.” The old man got half-length into an inconspicuous passage, and turned back to greet them to follow.
The small passage is only 1.5 meters high and one person is wide. Several people lined up in a row and walked slowly forward with their waists hunched over. After walking through the winding alley for about two minutes, the front suddenly became brighter, crisscrossed and the steel pipes were leaning against a porthole. On the wall of the warehouse, there is a small space that can only accommodate three or four people, and there are some bottles, cans, and fabrics piled up in a mess.
The old man opened the porthole, and the cool sea breeze came in, and the sultry heat was instantly dissipated.
He felt a rope from the porthole, and slowly lifted from the sea a simple distilled water device made of plastic film and a basin that was already full of water.
“The weather is good and the sun is shining, and there are enough water pipes to drink.” The old man carefully brought the basin in through the porthole, and everyone took turns drinking from the basin.
Luo Huayue wiped her mouth with her sleeve: “Huh?” She looked at her wrinkled top in doubt: “This is the one I wore when I entered the game yesterday, but I already replaced it in the room? “
The old man laughed: “Very good, very good, you have been away from the food and mind control provided by the ship for more than a period of time, and the fantasy of the ship will be useless to you.”
“You saw the truth.”
Rong Yi looked at the familiar sportswear on his body: “So, now that we go out, what we see is the ‘real scene’?”
“If it’s dark, yes.” The old man blinked mysteriously: “As long as it’s in the sun, what we see is still what the ship wants the player to see.”
He gestured to the dark environment around him: “There is no sunlight here, and you are free from mental bewitching, so you can see real clothes.”
His thin hand took Rong Yi’s arm and placed it under the porthole. The part illuminated by the setting sun strangely showed the sleeves of the suit she had put on this morning in the guest room, seamlessly spliced with the sportswear.
Rong Yi tried it on her own, as if she had a mask layer on her body, which was only visible under the influence of sunlight.
The old man yawned and hung the fish left over from the boat to dry. He pulled away a piece of rag hanging on the wall of the warehouse and asked:
“Where was your room last night and where have you been?”
Rong Yi squatted down and saw a sketch of a cruise ship with complex lines and complex structures painted on the wall of the warehouse.
The picture is engraved on an iron plate with a hard object, only the deck, engine room, some cabins, and other parts are blank.
He stretched out his hand to Luo Huayue: “Little girl, borrow your pen for me to use.”
Luo Huayue saw at a glance what the old man was going to do, took out his pen and squatted down: “I’ll paint, Grandpa, I’m professional!”
The old man was stunned for a moment, then smiled: “Alright. Do you know what this is for?”
“Draw a map of this ship.” Luo Huayue said.
“Perhaps,” Rong Yi added, “Are you also looking for a cockpit?”
Just now, the vague memories of yesterday came to mind a little bit—before entering the cabin, they were also discussing finding the cockpit, and she also let ICE and Raymond with the highest force value team up to go there, thinking it was foolproof.
As a result, he was played by the copy and even forgot who his mother was.
“Ah!” Luo Huayue also remembered: “Didn’t we say we want to find a way to return the ship?”
“I still remember that Zhang Haiyang was seasick and vomited all the time.” She laughed teasingly: “I didn’t expect the illusion of a boat to be good, at least it made you refreshed!”
Zhang Haiyang swayed his feet and helped the steel pipe next to him, his face turned pale: “Gan…I also remember it…and now I want to vomit again…”
Rong Yi quickly helped him to the porthole, so as not to contaminate the small shelter.
Looking forward to it, the confusing effect of the copy on them has been gradually metabolized.
They are uncomfortable, unhappy, hiding, embarrassed, anxious—but sane.
Luo Huayue drew a rough outline of the cabin structure based on her own memory. Compared with the old man’s version, it was basically similar.
“My guess is right!” the old man said excitedly: “After you come, the illusion on the ship is not the same as mine, but I guess the general structure of the ship will not change.”
“As long as we feel the structure inside again, we can know where the cockpit is! We can go back!”
The routes of several people in the morning were different, and they each pieced together a part of the internal structure of the cabin.
“Dong dong dong!” The old man tapped the blank piece of the structure diagram: “The cockpit must be in this piece!”
Luo Huayue frowned: “Then we still have to find a chance to go in… There are illusions and confusion during the day. Wouldn’t it be safer without the sun at night?”
The old man’s excited expression calmed down, and it was the same tone as when he first met: “I advise you not to.”
Zhang Haiyang looked back vigilantly from the porthole: “What will happen here at night?”
The old man burrowed into the pile of rags in the corner, his voice hoarse: “I don’t know what it is… Anyway, a few of my players disappear every morning.”
“After all, there are a lot of people, everyone’s brains are not clear, and they don’t know each other. With a large number of NPCs, it was not obvious at first.”
“But after I woke up, I deliberately followed a few players, and found that they all inexplicably never appeared again one morning.”
“So I guess the dungeon confuses our minds during the day and kills it at night.”
Rong Yi took the iron rod that the old man used for fishing, and flipped it upside down, giving it some weight. She whispered to Luo Huayue for a while, and Luo Huayue nodded.
Rong Yi put Luo Huayue’s fishing rod in front of the old man: “Senior, we are holding the fishing rod with you. Can you lend me this iron rod?”
Rong Yi and Luo Huayue used the dim moonlight to get out of the cramped room.
ICE and Raymond are still in the cabin, and according to the old man, their lives will be in danger tonight!
Got to save them.
Zhang Haiyang’s seasickness and sanity recovered at the same time, and now he was lying in the dark with the old man. The old man is also afraid of the fear of the unknown at night, and is reluctant to take risks rashly.
Rong Yi clenched the steel pipe in his hand.
She also has a weapon that others won’t believe:
Her boyfriend is probably an NPC. Moreover, it is an NPC who can easily sneak into the cruise ship.
In this way, does it count as having our people inside the enemy?
The sky was completely dark, Rong Yi and Luo Huayue glanced at the deck, there were only a few half-drunk players left by the pool, and everyone else should have gone back to the cabin to rest.
Luo Huayue swiped the screen to call ICE and Raymond in the team, but the two still did not respond.
“These two are really happy!” Luo Huayue angrily turned off the floating screen: “Sister Rong, let’s go in directly. The guest rooms should all be in that passage. We knock on the door one by one and we can always find it!”
More than 100 players, that is to knock on more than 100 doors… This is a lot of work.
Moreover, Rong Yi remembered that he had a particularly dark and sweet sleep last night. With such a quality of sleep, even if someone knocked on the door, he probably wouldn’t wake up.
There’s certainly no insomnia on this cruise that offers the “perfect experience.”
“Ah! Someone is here!” Luo Huayue tugged at Rong Yi’s sleeve and dragged her back.
Rong Yi carefully looked out and saw a tall man in a sailor’s uniform kindly urging the players on the deck to go back to the cabin.
Rong Yi quickly opened the communication interface:
Rong Yi: It seems that there are NPCs chasing people on the deck, so hurry up and hide.
X: It’s okay, I’m not on the deck hee hee.
Not on deck?
Rong Yi looked around, and indeed there were no other figures except those players on the deck.
Her little boyfriend is quite powerful, he really knows how to hide.
The players on the deck went back to the cabin, and only the men in sailor uniforms were still wandering.
He checked every shadowy corner very carefully to make sure there was no one there.
“That’s an NPC, right?” Luo Huayue asked in a low voice.
“should be.”
This is the only independent NPC that Rong Yi has seen since he got on the ship that is not generated by the player’s needs.
She suddenly thought of the calm and reliable male voice on the radio when she got on the boat, the one who claimed to be the captain. A man named “Lin Yue”.
After checking the deck over there, the man started walking towards the cabin. He was getting closer and closer to Rong Yi and Luo Huayue——
Rong Yi and Luo Huayue used the huge cabin as a cover, and walked around in circles with the man, before tiptoeing to the entrance of the cabin.
The man, on the other hand, moved to the back of the cabin, where the old man and Zhang Haiyang hid in the engine room.
“Dengdengdeng…”
The sound of footsteps descended down the iron ladder and gradually disappeared under the deck, deep in the cruise ship.
Luo Huayue was extremely nervous: “What about Sister Rong? Didn’t he go down to find Zhang Haiyang and the others?”
Rong Yi frowned: “The old man has been hiding there for three months. It should be safe there. Don’t worry, we will do what we can.”
Unlike the splendid decoration during the day, the cabin at night has faded away from the flashy illusion, leaving only the rusted iron frame, the simple passage, and the broken compartments without any doors in the passage.
That’s the truth about luxury rooms.
Without a door, it is much easier to find someone. Rong Yi and Luo Huayue looked around to see if there were those two reluctant team members on the single iron frame bed that had no quilt.
“ICE is here!” Luo Huayue hurriedly called for Rong Yi to come over. ICE was still wearing the boxing pants that she wore when she entered the game, and slept naked on the bed.
Rong Yi stepped forward and patted him on the face, ICE really fell into a deep sleep, and his face was flushed red without waking up.
“How can you sleep so deeply!” Luo Huayue hurriedly turned around, saw the simple sink next to her, turned on the faucet, took a handful of turbid and cold water, and poured it on ICE’s face!
“Hmm—” ICE frowned in discomfort, struggling to open her eyes. He laughed fascinatedly, and there were still colorful lights in his eyes: “Huh? You, come to see me fight? I won a lot of games today!”
Rong Yi tried to lift him up, but ICE slid softly to the ground.
“There is no sun now, why is he still immersed in the illusion?” Luo Huayue slapped him anxiously: “Wake up!”
“I’m coming.” Rong Yi set up ICE, clenched his fists, raised them high, and punched him in the stomach!
“boom!”
“vomit–“
This punch made ICE’s stomach churn, and the undigested food immediately spit out of his mouth!
Rong Yi shook his hands: “Master, how is my practice?”
The color in ICE’s eyes faded, he covered his stomach and bent down: “…I’m going to die…”
“What you eat will cause hallucinations. Is it more comfortable to spit it out?”
ICE still stumbled a bit, and followed the two of them to continue looking for Raymond in the dilapidated corridor:
“ohmyGod! This, here—” He stared at the hallway where the truth was revealed, speechless.
They soon found Raymond, who was sleeping on his back. Not only was he sound asleep, but he seemed to be still dreaming.
“Hey, hey…it’s great here…I’m going to stay- stay here forever!” he murmured happily in his dream.
As soon as the voice fell, the moonlight on the porthole of the room suddenly darkened!
It was a human face!
Luo Huayue covered her mouth and squatted down with the few people whose backs were facing the porthole, avoiding the sight of the face outside the window.
Who is that? She mouthed to the others in horror.
They clearly saw only one male NPC on the deck, and the face outside the window was obviously a gorgeous female face!
The woman outside the window saw Raymond lying on the bed, sticking out a snake-like slender forked tongue and licking her red lips.
The woman’s face disappeared after a sticky sound like her body was dragging on the ground.
“Quick!” Rong Yi dragged Raymond out of bed: “She might be here!”
Luo Huayue used the same process to wake him up. ICE looked at the familiar scene and stopped Rong Yi: “I’m coming!”
“boom–“
He threw a punch, not only making Raymond spit out the contents of his stomach, but even spit out some yellow water, the effect was comparable to gastric lavage.
Raymond crouched down in pain, unable to say a word, he could only barely give ICE a middle finger.
Luo Huayue complained: “It’s too hard! How can he go with us like this?”
ICE smiled and apologized, and together with Rong Yi, helped Raymond up, and the four quickly moved towards the door!
It sounded at the same time as their messy and hurried footsteps, as well as the sticky dragging sound that was getting closer and closer outside the cabin!
Here comes the thing!
“Go back!” Rong Yi made a decisive decision, and the four of them turned around and ran deep into the cabin.
At the end of the long cabin, there is a cafeteria with rows of delicious food – of course, this is during the day.
The dining room at night, like the cabin at night, reveals its true colors with cobwebs on the walls and broken tables and chairs.
Under Raymond’s unbelievable gaze, they hurried past the long line of tables that should have been full of delicious food.
The table is still full of food, but the food is all blue-grey fish.
“…Rainbow fish?”
Rong Yi’s attention disappeared in a flash, and the sticky voice behind him gradually approached. They accelerated their pace through the restaurant, passed several halls with unknown functions because they were too dilapidated, turned left and right, and hid in the corner of a dark room. .
Rong Yi breathed lightly, and asked in a low voice, “Do you remember how to go back the same way?”
Luo Huayue replied, “I remember.”
“Okay. I’ll say run in a while, and we’ll run back the same way.”
The sticky voice chased the door of the room, lingered for a while, and swam into the room.
Rong Yi patted Raymond: “Are you awake?”
Raymond responded with an “ah”.
“Can you trap her with your vines?”
Raymond shrugged: “I’m not sure about the A-level dungeon.”
“Then divert her away.” Rong Yi pointed to the wall to the door: “Use your vines to make some noise outside.”
Raymond stretched out the thin vines and snaked on the ground, followed the wall to get out of the door, and he didn’t know what Jingle sugar palm was caught outside and shook for a while.
As soon as the sticky voice stopped, he turned around and went out after the commotion. Rong Yi listened to the voice getting farther and farther away:
“run!”
Luo Huayue led the way, followed by a few people, walking through the winding cabin alley.
The sticky voice behind him seemed to have found a clue, turned his direction, and got closer and closer to them!
The dark night outside the cabin could already be seen, and several people accelerated and rushed out of the door!
On the deck, the man in the uniform of the seaman squinted his eyes and walked over quickly: “Several passengers, it’s already so late, why don’t you go back to the guest room to rest?”
He stopped in front of them and forced them into the cabin step by step: “Please go back!”
Raymond Vine swung out—
As soon as the man grabbed the vine, a stylized smile appeared on his handsome face: “This passenger, please don’t disturb the order of the cruise.”
He looked behind several people: “Oh, someone came to you.”
“Mr. Ray?”
Rong Yi turned around and saw Raymond “Live CP” wearing pajamas, rubbing his eyes and looking at them innocently and suspiciously:
“What are you doing at night?”
Raymond’s eyes began to overflow with colorful streamers again, and the vines collapsed softly to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, ICE hit Raymond with a right hook, knocking Raymond out, and slammed it on his shoulders!
Rong Yi picked up the steel pipe to clear the way ahead. There were many of them, but there was only one captain. He quickly bypassed him and ran to the open area on the deck!
The captain’s stylized smile faded as the captain seemed to notice that the passengers were not as bewitched by illusions as the other passengers. His face was serious, and the multicolored rays of light in his eyes were particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
“Please go back to the cabin to rest!”
“Please go back to the cabin to rest!”
“Please go back to the cabin to rest!”
He kept repeating this sentence, running fast with his lower body, and following them in a strange posture with his upper body motionless!
And the sticky voice in the cabin finally came to the door and appeared in front of everyone.
ICE looked back and gasped, “…Mermaid?”
Rong Yi turned around and pumped the steel pipe on the captain’s calf. The captain’s legs were only slightly bent, not affected at all.
When she turned around, she also saw that creature-long dark green hair like algae, a gorgeous and eerie face, the upper body was a mature woman, and the lower body was a fish tail covered with colorful scales.
Really a mermaid!
The mermaid’s tail wriggled along the deck, leaving trails as crystal clear as snails traveled along the way.
Her speed was not slow at all, and she even cooperated with the captain to form a siege to the few people fleeing on the deck!
Rong Yi considered the situation, and with his eyes signaled, he and Luo Huayue walked away from the side of the ship with a monster walking in two directions. ICE took the opportunity to carry Raymond on his back into the engine room.
She opened the floating screen while running, and sent a message to Zhang Haiyang to come out to meet the two of ICE.
The captain behind her was still repeating “please go back to the cabin for a rest”, chasing after her, she quickly switched to the communication interface with X while running.
Rong Yi: Do you know of any places to hide near the side of the ship?
X: [Ultraman raises his hand.jpg]
X: There are lifeboats outboard, jump off!
Rong Yi immediately cut to the team communication and told Luo Huayue to jump overboard. At the same time, he turned around and threw an iron rod at the captain. Taking advantage of the moment he resisted, he jumped out on the side of the boat——
The outboard is empty!
She was shocked, but it was too late!
X sent an afterthought:
X: Ah, forgot to mention! Only one side has lifeboats!
Rong Yi: …you’re finished with Ai Zhensheng.
Suddenly, a terrifyingly huge tentacle rose from the sea, stopped less than one meter from the ship’s side, and caught her precisely!
The tentacles were soft, and Rong Yi felt as comfortable as falling on Simmons, and even flicked it.
X: I’m sorry!
X: Don’t be angry, I’ll catch you
