Can the server-wide announcement in Chapter 123 be postponed? (Second update)
The world is going to the dogs; they obviously didn't expect to suddenly encounter such a huge and imposing ship.
He discovered that the ship's target was actually him.
He didn't care that sailing at full speed through the shovel mackerel would accelerate the depletion of the boat's durability, and immediately steered the boat away!
However, it would be strange if a Tier 2 ordinary ship could outrun the "Ghost Pirate," which was specifically designed for pursuit.
At 20 knots, going all out regardless of the cost!
The thuds coming from the bow were all the carcasses of razorback mackerel that had been smashed to pieces.
Before long, the two ships drew closer and closer, and were already within the range of the old-fashioned cannons.
The old-fashioned cannon at the bow was slowly pushed out of its gun port, and the dark muzzle was aimed at the awning boat.
Yu Wang stood at the bow of the boat, raised his right hand, and then swung it down suddenly.
"Fire."
The deafening roar of cannons shattered the tranquility of the sea! Several heavy solid iron bullets whistled through the air!
The first salvo hit the middle of the ship directly.
Wood chips mixed with a small amount of metal fragments exploded violently, tearing a huge gash in the side of the awning boat, and seawater rushed in! The boat tilted violently!
The people on the boat seemed to scream a few times, but they were too far away to see anything but some frantic gesticulation.
While he was frantically trying to do something, he might have also tried to send a distress signal in the chat channel, but he didn't even have time to organize a complete message.
He was quickly engulfed by the roar of the second and third rounds of artillery fire.
"Boom boom boom—!"
Faced with the overwhelming firepower of the "Ghost Pirate," the awning boat was as fragile as a toy.
The keel broke, the cabin shattered, and flames and thick smoke began to rise. In just a few dozen seconds, it completely lost its buoyancy, and half-sank into the sea, carrying billowing smoke and remaining debris.
Silence returned, broken only by the smell of gunpowder and the sound of waves.
The sea helmet worm carried Yu Wang around the vicinity, confirming that there were no signs of life remaining.
Yu Wang retrieved the remaining materials and returned to the original sea area with Zhang Xinlan.
The "Ghost Pirate" gradually disappeared into the air, leaving only a ring of scattered floating debris on the sea surface.

In the 444th zone chat channel, the survivors hadn't yet realized that "The World Is Going Downhill" had already left the biosphere, and were still passionately posting.
"Here comes another weirdo? If you're so capable, why don't you do it yourself? I've never seen you release any useful information. The fact that the big shots are willing to offer their products at a reasonable price is already an immense favor, and you're still resorting to moral blackmail."
"Laughable! 'Giving alms'? Did you even read the price tag? We can collect that wood and plastic in half a day and exchange it for it. Even if the price of wood and plastic has gone up now, can't we still exchange it for fish, meat, or bones? What's the difference between this price and giving it away for free? Do they owe you something?"
"I bet you didn't manage to get one, right? The sourness is practically overflowing through the screen."
Suddenly, someone painstakingly found a message—half a message—from "The World Is Going Downhill" among hundreds of sarcastic messages.
The world is going to the dogs: "Help! A ghost ship hastily posted this before even finishing a sentence."
Working backwards, could it be "Help! There's a ghost ship behind me?"?
Or, "Help! A ghost ship is chasing me?"
What is a ghost ship? Is it a supply ship for the opposing faction?
Before the other survivors could ask any further questions, they discovered that "The World Is Going Downhill" had turned gray.
There is only one possibility: the survivor is already dead.
The channel fell into complete silence.
A few seconds later, someone tentatively asked, "??? Why is that profile picture—which seems to reflect the decline of morality—grayed out?"
"I was just checking his news—this, this all of a sudden—is it because of that ghost ship?"
"Holy crap!"
In an instant, everyone understood, and a chill crept up their spines.
"Tiger Two," a survivor from the previous 522nd division, knows even more.
Upon seeing the words "ghost ship," he immediately thought of the Ghost Pirate Ship of the "Ghost Tiger."
The person who was just jumping around and giving orders in the channel just now disappeared without any warning.
Considering who he had previously vehemently criticized, and the timing of this "accident" being so coincidental—
The answer is almost obvious.
Although he didn't want to offend anyone because of his special status, he didn't reveal what he knew.
The other survivors of the 522 shipwreck, some of whom were quite talkative, revealed everything about the "Ghost Pirate Ship."
Those players who had previously angrily denounced the "decline of morality" felt a surge of cathartic satisfaction after a brief moment of astonishment. Immediately following them was another group of survivors who were filled with unease. Some of them were even nervously looking back, fearing that a ghost ship would appear behind them to claim their lives at any moment!
At this moment, another wave of food was put on the shelves, and no one in the channel mentioned "the world is going to the dogs" anymore; everyone joined the buying frenzy.

After this ordeal, Yu Wang's title advancement progress not only surged again to 67%, but he also received an unexpected bonus.
I don't know if it's because he feels guilty or because he wants to curry favor.
After returning to the "Little Yellow Duck" ship, he found that the post about buying empty nuclear fragments, which had been up for two days, had received quite a few responses.
The price is still far below my expectations.
Seven flooded treasure chests yielded seven empty core fragments. Only two more are needed to upgrade to level 4 ship.
He naturally didn't let this opportunity pass him by, accepting all comers and replacing them all.
Before long, the number of empty core fragments reached 208.
Upgrading from level 3 to level 4 doesn't require any strange or obscure materials; it only requires accumulating a massive amount of basic materials to achieve a qualitative change.
After obtaining the fragments, Yu Wang immediately opened the panel and upgraded the ship without hesitation.
Upgrade requires: 200 Empty Core Fragments, 3000 Plastics, and 1000 Wood.
[Our current resources meet the upgrade requirements. Do you wish to upgrade immediately?]
【Yes】
The moment the command was confirmed, the Little Yellow Duck ship was suddenly covered by a layer of soft white light, as if a living organism was undergoing a thorough transformation. The light lasted for about ten seconds before slowly dissipating.
What lies before Wang's eyes is a completely different ship!
The ship's length has increased dramatically to nearly thirty meters!
The originally round and cute "little yellow duck" has become more slender, and its neck has been lengthened, completely eliminating its toy-like feel.
If the duck was previously a chibi-style two-headed creature, it now resembles a slender waterfowl entering adolescence and beginning to show its majestic beauty.
The deck area has been expanded several times, and even a second deck has appeared!
Sea helmet worms no longer need to perch on the open roof of the ship; with a little modification, the second-floor cabin can be transformed into a sunroom and worm nest.
In addition, the material of the hull has undergone a qualitative change. It looks like ordinary plastic, but its hardness is comparable to that of steel, and it has excellent toughness.
Yu Wang opened the ship's control panel, and a completely new set of data appeared.
【Name: Little Yellow Duck】
[Level: 4]
[Durability: 5000+250/5000]
Speed: 20 knots
Storage space: 1000 slots
Existing expansion modules: Water Rocket Cannon LV.3 (bow), Water Rocket Cannon LV.3 (stern), Intermediate Seawater Desalination Unit
Turbocharged Duck Thruster LV.3, You're kidding me, the duck can fly Iv2 (500 meters), Garbage Recycling Station, Captain's Lounge Iv2,
Daily Duck Eggs, Underwater Radar LV1
Processing/Production Equipment: Workbench Lv.2, Oil Extractor ma, Chemical Table Iv.2
[Expandable Modules: Duck Electromagnetic Cannon, Duck Crown, Duck Staff Dormitory]
[Skill: Gaaaaa]
[Description: The duck has grown up! Its wings have hardened! It's time to explore a bigger world!]
He turned off the notification and glanced at the newly added expandable modules on the panel: [Duck Power Electromagnetic Cannon] and [Duck Crown].
[DuckDuck Staff Dormitory]
After the upgrade, the Little Yellow Duck's gun turret positions increased significantly, accommodating up to eight turrets:
It has three doors on each side, plus one door at the bow and one at the stern.
Among them, the [Duck Power Electromagnetic Cannon] is a special bow cannon module that comes with the ship, and its power is far superior to that of the "Water Rocket Cannon" built from ordinary blueprints.
However, the list of building materials made Yu Wang hesitate for the time being.
"Overloaded Magic Core", "Primal Rune Plate", "Advanced Circuit Board" - these are all rare materials that touch upon the realm of the extraordinary.
You need to enter a dungeon set in the "Gear Tower," "Witch Alliance," or the core areas of various races to have a chance of obtaining it.
The same applies to the 【Duck Crown】. The effect of this exclusive module is displayed as "???". Its specific function can only be known after it is completed. Moreover, its material requirements are even more terrifying: 100 units of extraordinary biological flesh!
In group instances at sea or where ships are allowed, one might be able to maneuver and attempt a hunt; however, in a land environment, the chances of victory are almost nil.
The first two modules are obviously beyond our reach at this stage; we can only take a look and feast our eyes on them.
However, the final [Duck Duck Staff Dormitory] gave him a glimmer of hope that it could be realized.
The main material needed for the [Duck Duck Staff Dormitory] is the "Heart of Energy" gem, supplemented by some basic resources.
The "Heart of Energy," similar to the "Heart of Tide," which played a crucial role in the storm, is a rare and precious gem that can be inlaid and possesses special abilities.
If not obtained from game rewards, relying solely on opening treasure chests, one would need at least a "Gold Resource Chest" level to have any hope.
Just as I was pondering this, the familiar game notification sound arrived, albeit late:
[Holy crap!!! Congratulations on becoming the first survivor in the entire server to upgrade their ship to level 4! Shall we make a server-wide announcement?!?]
There's a special reward!
Upon seeing this last flashing system notification, Yu Wang didn't immediately agree as he had before. He hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked in his mind, "Could we postpone the broadcast for a few days?"
This was his first attempt to talk to the game—no, to the section administrator.
After observing so many times, he guessed that the server-wide broadcast did not have any official rewards; it was purely a personal honor to increase popularity.
The gift packages he received earlier must have come from the personal pocket of the 444 section administrator.
The purpose was to get him to make a server-wide announcement.
This behavior seems to boost the performance of the 444 partition administrator, giving them a boost in reputation or something.
Given this, as the person in charge of performance in the eyes of the other party, can I also try to gain a little bit of initiative?
However, Yu Wang was quiet for a long time, with only the sounds of the sea breeze and waves.
