A moment later, looking at the two people who were tied up and gagged, everyone clapped their hands in satisfaction.
"Oh, that was really tough."
"Excellent, we've dealt with these two guys. The ones inside definitely won't be able to get out for a while!"
Hu Tao stood with her hands on her hips.
Yanfei couldn't help but retort, "Speaking of which, Hu Tao, you didn't do anything just now, you just moved your mouth."
"Oh, moving my mouth is also very hard work, because as the Director, I'm responsible for commanding!"
Hu Tao remained unfazed, making her laziness sound so grand.
"Alright everyone, let's not waste any more time, we can board the ship now," Kuki Shinobu reminded.
Looking at the ships docked by the shore, everyone understood that this was the final step of the plan.
There were three ships in total here, one larger and two smaller.
But even so, a small boat could accommodate twenty to thirty people.
"Damn it, why are there no keys!"
When they realized that none of the three ships had keys, everyone instantly felt a bit of despair.
"Plop!"
Fischl plopped down onto the ship's deck, feeling very frustrated, "We calculated everything, but we didn't calculate that these people would take the keys with them."
"This shows they are rigorous in their actions, doesn't it?" Bennett scratched his head.
"How do I feel like you're speaking up for them? Of course they're rigorous, but now we're the ones in trouble!"
Fischl glared at Bennett angrily, and Bennett didn't dare to cross her.
At this moment, Kaeya said loudly, "It's alright, we'll just force it to start."
"Force it to start?" Xavier doubted, "This is electronically controlled, not some old-fashioned equipment where two wires can make it work. How can it be that easy to force it to start?"
"It's really not that easy..." Even Zhongli was stumped.
Alhaitham, who was beside them, sighed, "Since that's the case, we can only activate Plan B."
"Plan B?" Lyney quickly asked, "So we have other plans? What is it, then?"
Alhaitham seemed to find it a bit difficult to say, and after a moment of contemplation, he finally spoke, "Do you see the lifeboats on these ships?"
"No way! You're actually going to make us row these lifeboats to get out of here? When they come back, won't they catch up to us in minutes!"
Itto almost jumped up.
"So this is Plan B, and the prerequisite for executing this plan is to destroy the ships, which can greatly save time, but..."
Xingqiu rubbed his forehead, "But those guys' communication system isn't broken, so they'll definitely call for support immediately, right?"
Everyone looked at each other; it really seemed like a dead end.
Was the plan really going to fail just like this?
"Boom!"
But just as everyone was incredibly disheartened and the atmosphere was extremely heavy, a roar suddenly sounded.
Everyone was in disbelief, realizing that the ship had actually been started.
