Chapter 2035, Section 2.33: The Lifesaving Ark That Returned
"There's something in my head." This is the common sentiment of all the female warriors who wore the transforming armor for the first time.

“That’s your onboard AI. You’re used to communicating with ‘her’ thoughts. You don’t actually need to talk.” Captain Nine-Tailed patiently explained, “As long as you concentrate and release a clear brainwave, the onboard AI will instantly capture it and execute it perfectly. Remember, you must be free of distractions. Otherwise, the onboard AI won’t be able to understand the action you want to perform immediately. Mental redundancy will cause unnecessary delays.”

"What a magical feeling. It's like I'm talking to myself." The first to achieve brainwave resonance was the beautiful Helena.

"Practice makes perfect," Captain Nine-Tailed patiently advised.

"Yes," the nine newly recruited female warriors responded in unison. This was clearly a good start.

First came the miraculous effects of the "anti-toxic serum," then the advanced technology of the transforming armor. Combined, these two elements transformed the nine female warriors, making them advance by leaps and bounds. This was the first time that the Extinction Wave Team 4 attempted to add a "plot variable" that could influence the subsequent developments after successfully intervening in the main storyline. Players often refer to this as "activating a cheat code." Those who know, know.

As for the plot's counterattack, it may be late, but it will come eventually.

"Captain!" the female producer called out quickly, "The ship is back."

"What?" Captain Nine-Tails was also taken aback: "The shuttle oil tanker that left this morning?"

"Hmm." The female producer's voice betrayed her panic: "We can't contact the ship at all, we don't know what's going on. All our efforts have been in vain, and they just sailed back silently. So we have no idea what happened along the way."

"We're coming right away." Leaving two flight attendants who had recovered first to take care of the nine newcomers who were still undergoing their final simulation exercises in the virtual reality training cabin of the "Super Brain Blockchain" architecture, Captain Nine-Tailed immediately led his team members to the dock bridge.

Before even arriving, the survivors who hadn't won the lottery and had to stay at the container terminal could be seen standing on the safe roof, gazing at the life-saving "ark" that had returned.

"Captain, something's wrong." Without needing his high-tech equipment, Chen Changzhi immediately noticed the difference: "The ship's speed and the wake (stern current) are not proportional."

"The ship is moving slowly and the stern is swaying a long way." Captain Nine-Tailed also noticed: "The bow is swaying from side to side, which is not a normal sailing state."

"It feels like something is shaking its head and pushing it forward from behind..." Hu Xueji realized before she could finish her sentence: "Oh no!"

"It's the giant serpent!" Captain Nine-Tailed immediately shouted to the survivors on the safe roof, "Come down quickly!"

"Get down quickly! Quick—" The female producer reacted with a jolt.

Fortunately, the survivors, who had escaped the python's jaws multiple times, instantly became alert and scrambled off the roof. The woman's panicked screams, the rattling of corrugated iron, and the thud of heavy objects crashing echoed into the distance amidst the commotion. The strangely turning oil tanker suddenly began to accelerate.

Suddenly, turbulent waves surged, and oil tankers rushed toward the container terminal.

Just as the waves were about to carry the oil tanker into the container wall, the bow suddenly lifted up, as if soaring into the sky.

Everyone was stunned by the sight before them. Even as the tide poured down from under the ship, soaking them to the bone, they were still in shock.

The even more terrifying images caused everyone's brains to freeze instantly.

If the earlier surge of waves lifting the oil tanker high into the air was consistent with common sense and human psychology, then the sudden downpour of these gravity-driven tides, leaving the tanker adrift and unsupported, was hardly believable. Thus, a mental shutdown became the emergency self-protective mechanism.

This... it's blinding my pay-to-win eyes, and it's probably not fair at all!

However, existence implies rationale.

The shuttle oil tanker, suspended in mid-air, quickly demonstrated its rationale.

As the high bow of the ship slowly descended, the stern, which was raised like a seesaw, was being completely swallowed by a giant snake!
Just a few days ago it was swallowing airplanes, and now it can swallow an oil tanker. The feeling of having the oil tanker stuck in the giant snake's mouth is like having half a sugarcane chewed up! The front half is still intact, but the back half has been chewed beyond recognition.

Staring down with its terrifying snake-like eyes, the giant snake looked down at the trembling ants hiding within the container enclosure. Suddenly, a thunderous gurgling sound erupted from its thick, long belly. Digestive juices mixed with saliva gushed out. The giant snake opened its blood-red maw wide and violently spat out the oil tanker that was stuck in its throat!
An oil tanker crashed head-on into them, and the instinct for survival kicked in immediately. Survivors scrambled and tumbled in all directions to escape. But a large number of survivors who couldn't escape in time were crushed by the crashing bow of the ship.

With a loud "boom," thick juice splattered everywhere.

"Ah!!!" The survivor who had just escaped death was unable to dodge in time and was hit by the thick juice, which covered his head and body.

A hellish and horrific scene then unfolded.

The giant snake's super digestive fluid, far exceeding the limits of reptiles, digested the survivor, skin and bones, in the blink of an eye! Like a human-shaped candle, it turned into a puddle of pus.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" the female producer shouted hoarsely.

"Hiss—" But before her voice could even finish, a sharp, whistling sound of leaking liquid rang out behind her without warning.

The oil tanker, wedged diagonally into the deep crater created by the impact, first developed countless tiny, hissing holes that spewed water. These numerous holes then expanded rapidly, eventually merging into large holes that filled the hull, from which digestive fluids gushed forth!

The most terrifying thing happens without any warning.

The survivors, corroded by digestive fluids but not quite dead, suddenly burst their upper bodies out of the large hole in the ship's hull, only to have their lower bodies trapped inside. They transformed into countless undead creatures covering the ship, baring their fangs and claws at their former companions, their flesh and blood constantly draining away, their features melting away!
"My God..." Faced with the horrifying scene of corpses dancing in the air, the female agent trembled with fear and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

Fortunately, the living corpses, acting as plugs, used their melting flesh to block the indiscriminate spray of digestive juices, providing the remaining survivors with their only escape route. The giant snakes that spewed out from the oil tanker weren't in a hurry to chase after their captive prey; instead, they lowered their heads slightly and extended their scarlet tongues to lick the digestive juices mixed with human flesh and blood that had dripped from the ship's hull.

It's like licking a delicious popsicle.

Completely different from the intense sensory stimulation that overwhelmed the female producers present, Wu Chen's fleeting True Sight revealed a completely different scene.

The tattered spirit entities broke free from the constraints of their mangled bodies and flew in all directions, like a fireworks display surrounding a wrecked ship riddled with holes. Following the rules of the "Savior" principle of their counterparts, these tattered spirit entities spontaneously divided themselves, becoming part of the remaining surviving counterparts.

The story ends with the plot.

This is also the truth behind the isotope battle royale of this anaconda disaster.
