After Online Dating with Unlimited Streaming BOSS - Chapter 55

The old man held the fishing rod steadily, and he smiled when he heard the words: “That’s not very good. His good friend was beaten by the propeller for 1,800 yuan, and he has 1,800 good friends.”

Luo Huayue shook her head in confusion: “However, the captain said that his lover can talk, has feelings, and sympathy, and will not take the initiative to hurt the player. But now these mermaids, none of them fit these characteristics!”

“Is the cloned mermaid degraded?”

The old man said nonchalantly, “You babes, what are you doing? He said to help him find a lover and help us. Well, now that we have found it, just tell him not to?”

“As for whether he accepts such a ‘lover’ or not, that is his own business. The emperor is not in a hurry for the eunuch…”

“If you want me to say, you are too obsessed with that liar! You can’t do it.”

Raymond frowned: “Why is he a liar?”

The old man slammed: “I said that I will help us. Yesterday, you were all at the point of life and death. Is he here to help again? Say one thing and do another, liar.”

Raymond retorted on behalf of the captain: “He’s a dungeon boss, if you don’t help the mermaid to kill us, it’s already a help!”

The debate of the crowd gradually deviated from the theme, and Rong Yi decided to call the captain first.

Zhang Haiyang said casually, “Why call him here, can you find the cockpit alone?”

ICE hurriedly pushed his elbow against him and glared at him: Which pot can’t be lifted without opening it!

The little octopus was safely wrapped in a cloth bag by Rong Yi and placed in their safe house. Because of the “expert” Zhang Haiyang, Rong Yi firmly believed that he would wake up, so he did not feel as low as ICE thought.

She called out the floating screen: “Don’t worry about this. I made friends with the captain yesterday.”

After a while, the captain came to the deck at her call, but it was still in the dungeon plot. There were only a few sentences back and forth: “Dear passenger, what is your order?”

“You look bad, I suggest you go to the restaurant to have a good meal first.”

“Our casino has always been prosperous, won’t you go and experience it?”

Rong Yi activated “Meet the parents”, the stylized smile on the captain’s face froze slightly and faded away.

“Sister-in-law.” In his tone, he tried his best to suppress the excitement: “You said you found her… Really?”

Rong Yi said, “You promised me before, do you still count it?”

“Of course!” The captain couldn’t hold back and said anxiously, “As long as you help me find her, I will do my best to help you! Where is she?”

Rong Yi led him to the merman’s corpse:

“What you are about to hear below is the result of the analysis of our marine biology experts. Although it is incredible, it is indeed the most logical explanation at present.”

Although he always thought that the current mermaid had nothing to do with the mermaid that died for him, the captain turned pale subconsciously when he saw the corpse that was more than rotten and had its stomach cut open.

After all, it was a corpse with “her” face on it.

Rong Yi said in a serious tone, “First of all, think about it, did these mermaids appear after your lover died?”

The captain nodded blankly.

She just sighed: “That’s it. Expert Zhang, come on.”

After listening to the “marine biology expert”‘s explanation on merman species judgment, predation characteristics, and body regeneration, the captain was a little confused:

“You mean…she, is she?” He looked at the vast sea: “They—all of them?!”

Zhang Haiyang coughed and tried to pretend to be professional and mature: “In the biological sense, it is like this.”

The captain shook his head: “…No, I don’t accept it.”

He hugged his head and squatted down in pain: “My mermaid… She is kind, pure, loves to laugh, and never takes the initiative to hurt players – how could she become such a monster!”

Rong Yi squatted beside him and patted his back: “Actually, I have a guess.”

“Do you change from a human to an evil spirit in an instant, or gradually? After you become an evil spirit, will you still have human memory and thinking?”

The captain raised his head and recalled: “…not an instant…it took about half a month of transition before I could switch smoothly between the human form during the day and the evil spirit at night.”

“When I become an evil spirit… it is true that my thinking will be a little confusing, but with such a long memory of being a human being in my mind, they will keep me from getting too lost.”

Rong Yi said, “I think your mermaid should be the same.”

The captain was taken aback: “What do you mean?”

“If you want to change the copy, it is impossible to change only one NPC of you. The body of the mermaid should also have changed.”

“Like you, she changed from a mermaid to a starfish-like monster, not in an instant, but a long process of transformation.” Rong Yi gently twisted the white digestive net that the mermaid had turned into:

“She saved you from dying when she turned to the last minute. The properties of the starfish made every fragment of her body regenerate and became a ‘mermaid’ exactly like herself.”

“However, while **** can be regenerated, there is one thing that cannot.”

“That’s memory.”

The captain repeated those two words in confusion: “…memory?”

“For example, it’s like your mermaid is a USB flash drive.” Maybe it was the scene where he always thought about exchanging rings with the USB flash drive. Rong Yi’s first reaction was to take this example:

“You have stored all the daily joys, emotions, and experiences of the two in the USB flash drive. But one day, you accidentally lost the USB flash drive.

“You go to the market and find that there are many U disks of the same model as hers, and they look exactly the same.”

“But you just know that none of them are her.”

“Because you know very well that you are not looking for the USB flash drive, but rather the lost data in the USB flash drive.”

“What makes your USB flash drive so unique? Not the appearance, not the model, but the data you have accumulated over time.”

She looked at the mermaid corpse on the ground: “So these, they are your mermaid, after all, they have the exact same genes; they are not your mermaid, because their minds are empty and they don’t have any memory of your past.”

The captain was silent, then took off the sailor’s hat and held it in his hands, lowered his head, and said in a hoarse voice, “…Sister-in-law, you are right.”

“I can’t find her again, can I?”

“Then it depends on how you define ‘she’.” Rong Yi said, “It’s sex, or spirit.”

He was silent. For a while, only the deck was heard, and the players were having fun.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Zhang Haiyang took a sip: “I said, no matter if this USB flash drive has your data or not, but we found the ‘merman’ you were looking for, didn’t we? Then do you have to do it too? Fulfill the agreement and help us return?”

The captain was still immersed in the pain of losing his lover forever. Hearing this, he raised his head and gave him a strange look:

“When did I say I would help you return?”

Rong Yi frowned, “Didn’t you promise me before that as long as you find the mermaid, you’ll help us—”

The captain interrupted her: “Sister-in-law, what I promise you is to ‘do my best’ to help you.”

Zhang Haiyang clapped his hands: “That’s enough. You are a captain, can’t you help us return to the voyage?”

The captain shook his head: “I’m sorry, my job is the captain, it doesn’t mean that I will drive this cruise ship.”

Rong Yi looked at him with difficulty: “You…you are a captain…can’t drive a boat?”

The captain coughed: “In the previous dungeon, my task was to persuade players not to be lured by mermaids; in the current dungeon, my task is to prevent players from sobering up and returning. This does not require the skill of ‘sailboat’.”

“So I’m just taking a post. I heard that this is quite common in your human society.”

Rong Yi: …As an NPC, you know quite a lot.

“Bang!” A loud noise drew their eyes to Raymond.

He punched the bulwark of the ship with a tone of hatred: “What are you suffering? Isn’t your lover already resurrected? It’s just because she’s not as beautiful as you thought after her resurrection, so you have to When she’s dead?”

The captain also became angry: “What does it mean to think she died? She has already died to save me! She is so beautiful, these disgusting monsters are blasphemy to her!”

“If this can also be called resurrection, then it would be better to simply die!”

“At least, she can still live beautifully in my heart…”

Raymond said angrily: “Coward! Do you love her, or do you love the memory of the past? Isn’t it just the memory? It’s better to create it again?”

The captain shook his head firmly: “You are using another mermaid as her substitute! I would never do such a thing, because I love her, because I respect her!”

“Okay!” Raymond roared, “Then we will help you kill all the mermaids and let the first mermaid live flawlessly in your memory, okay?!”

“Ha! Whimsical!” The captain shouted back: “Didn’t you listen to the experts? As long as there is a little body fragment, she can be resurrected! You can’t kill it completely!”

Raymond pointed to the rotten mermaid during the overtime work: “They are afraid of the sun. As long as they put all their bodies on the deck to dry the salted fish, I don’t believe they can be reborn!”

The others looked at the captain and then at Raymond, and couldn’t tell what they were arguing about. The captain’s “insufficient greed”? Or Raymond’s “Whimsical”?

Or, they didn’t know at all why Raymond was so angry with the captain.

Rong Yi vaguely felt that Raymond was like a little boy who didn’t know how to play basketball. Seeing other boys with high basketball talent, he didn’t cherish it for nothing. He was jealous and resentful. Find out what it feels like to have a fight with someone.

However, killing all the mermaids is indeed a problem-solving direction. Although it looks a bit far-fetched.

They have already got the captain, and the only monster to face at night is the mermaid.

If there are no mermaids, it means that they have half a day every day to explore freely on the boat.

Come to think of it, the freedom to come and go in the cockpit is very beneficial for them to return home.

But the difficulty is that a mermaid is already very strong, and it can multiply indefinitely. Is it possible that each one must ensure that they are completely dead, and then put them on the deck to bask in the sun?

Rong Yi thought of the tragic situation that he had to deal with three mermaids last night, how many mermaids would attack tonight? Not to mention killing, can they escape successfully?

“What’s the noise!” The old man who was fishing silently finally spoke up, caught a rainbow fish, and skillfully peeled it open.

“Who said that mermaids can’t be killed cleanly.” The gorgeous fish skin was thrown into the sea: “I’m here, I can.”

Luo Huayue’s mind turned, she immediately understood, and said in surprise, “Grandpa, is it your skill—”

The old man squeezed the straw hat and said, “Ah. I’ve been with you for a while, and I can see that you kids are not bad at heart. If we meet by chance, we may not see each other again in the future. It’s okay to tell you.”

“My skill is called [Unparalleled].”

The old man laughed at himself: “It’s ironic. To put it simply, cancer is the infinite abnormal proliferation of tissue cells. My ideal is to eliminate all cancers in the world, but in reality I can’t do it, but I entered the game and gave me a’ Block the ability of biological cells to proliferate and regenerate.”

“The wounds I cut won’t heal. The NPCs I killed cannot be reborn.”

“The vast majority of NPCs wait until the end of a dungeon and then respawn, so my skill is so overbearing, it’s actually quite tasteless.”

“I didn’t know that the mermaid had this feature before, but now that I think about it, it’s quite suitable for this dungeon.”

“The merman I killed, the corpse will always be the corpse.”

His sharp eyes came out from under the straw hat. This was the first time Rong Yi had clearly realized that the old man in front of him had passed through many dungeons alone, and he was able to get to the next round of the game in the A-level dungeons with a high mortality rate. the real master.

It was them who arbitrarily thought of him as an ordinary old man these two days, taking care of him everywhere, not even letting him go on the battlefield, misestimating his strength.

The old man put away his fishing rod and jumped off the side of the boat lightly, still hunched over his thin back, he smiled and patted Rong Yi’s unbroken right arm: “Thank you, I have eaten a lot and rested well these past two days. .”

“Tonight’s battle, if the children don’t dislike me and hold me back, the old man, I will join in.”
