With my current state, if I were to encounter the suited man with the Gatling gun again, it wouldn't be that troublesome.
I could use my speed to instantly close in on him and eliminate him.
And I was confident enough that at such a short distance, he wouldn't have time to react!
Over the next few days, I spent my time adjusting to my changes while also researching the usage of Mu Shen power.
Now, I could condense the Mu Shen power I cultivated into my palm.
It seemed only I could see and feel this Mu Shen power.
I could alter its shape at will.
However, to be honest, I hadn't figured out a better way to use Mu Shen power.
It wasn't until a few days later, while I was strolling on the beach with Luo Yaqin, that she casually tossed a few pebbles into the sea. My eyes lit up, and at that moment, I suddenly found a way to use Mu Shen power.
By wrapping Mu Shen power around my wrist, I could greatly increase the strength of my hand.
Subsequently, this Mu Shen power could also transform into various shapes.
I controlled the Mu Shen power to form small marbles, which I then flicked out with my fingers.
My initial thought was to reduce the time spent picking up stones and to launch surprise attacks.
However, Mu Shen power gave me a huge surprise!
Upon impact with a target, the flicked Mu Shen power would instantly explode.
And the power of the explosion was considerable; from its range, it was comparable to a small cannonball.
Seeing this, my heart was filled with immense joy. This was another formidable ultimate move for me.
However, I didn't publicize this matter. On one hand, I needed to keep some trump cards for myself. On the other hand, it was because I was sufficiently cautious and vigilant.
Frankly, I still wasn't entirely trusting of Lin Chun and the others.
I chatted with them regularly to pass the time, but I couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't betray me one day.
After all, I couldn't provide them with enough benefits. When the stakes of what they stood to lose become a factor, many things could change.
Right now, the only person I could truly trust was Luo Yaqin.
I shared this thought with her, asking if I was suffering from paranoia.
Luo Yaqin smiled, gently patted my head, and said, "No, you're just sufficiently cautious and vigilant. In this environment, if you weren't, you might be the one to die..."
I nodded seriously, remaining silent.
Another full month passed. During this month, I had completely mastered all the Mu Shen power I possessed.
Most importantly, I discovered another significant use: when Mu Shen power was condensed into a large cannonball, the resulting destructive power was even more terrifying than the cannons dismantled from the ship.
Honestly, I was starting to look forward to Veci sending more people over.
That way, I could test the extent of my current capabilities.
Veci would certainly not let the matter rest after his hired mercenaries were all eliminated, and he would surely find ways to continue attacking me.
It was just a matter of when they would come.
Furthermore, during this time, Lin Chun told me some things.
These mercenaries were all men and had normal physiological needs. On this island, apart from Luo Yaqin, the only other inhabitants were the savages.
He told me this after getting drunk, and I didn't pay much attention at the time. However, when I recalled this incident later, I realized how truly important it was.
I must admit that Lin Chun had provided me with considerable help during this period.
Many survival skills and abilities were unique to mercenaries, and they were highly skilled in their hands to survive in various environments.
He not only crafted a batch of telescopes but also taught the savages how to use them.
This way, we effectively had lookouts. Although my current eyesight didn't require them, with these telescopes, I wouldn't have to constantly scan the horizon every day.
Moreover, communication with the savages had become increasingly fluent, and we could even engage in casual conversation when we had nothing else to do.
This also helped to pass the boring hours.
I thought this comfortable life would continue for some time. Unexpectedly, only half a month later, news arrived.
As I was cultivating, I heard a savage rush in from outside, holding a telescope and gesturing animatedly while speaking to me, "Big... water... don't recognize..."
Although his words were fragmented, I understood immediately and rushed out.
Looking out towards the sea, I saw a ship in the distance, heading towards our location!
