Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 3608

Ryan was always the nervous type.

He had a habit of imagining the worst possible outcomes for every situation.

It was something that often left Matthew feeling helpless.

Ryan had been this cautious and jittery the first time they met, too.

Still, from a rational perspective, it was entirely understandable.

Even when he crossed the Deep Sea Zone before, Ryan had relied on the same method—playing it safe.

The only difference was that Ryan didn't even need to get his hands dirty—someone else would always force the weak ones to go first.

As a trusted confidant of Ronny Donald—one of the big shots of Blackshore Island's District 12—Ryan carried a name that alone was enough to keep most people from making any rash moves.

In a place like the West Montiria Islands, human life was about the cheapest thing around.

In less than fifteen minutes, Matthew and Ryan spotted a crowd of ships gathered in the distance.

Unlike the organized chaos of Bloodfin Bay, here the ships were spaced far apart as if a full-blown battle could break out at any second.

The arrival of the fearsome Medusa Warship immediately drew all eyes.

Even those commanding the more powerful vessels showed unease in their expressions.

The ship's intimidating serpent-like design made it clear: it belonged to the Medusa Gang—the infamous pack of lunatics.

Quietly, everyone steered their vessels a little farther away from the Medusa Warship.

Matthew and Ryan exchanged a glance on deck.

It looked like they wouldn't even need to issue a warning or flex their muscles.

The mere presence of the Medusa Warship was enough to keep everyone at bay.

The ship slowly pulled into a spot on the outskirts of the cluster.

Meanwhile, aboard a battleship in the distance, someone noticed something odd.

A man with a long scar across his eye frowned as he stared toward the Medusa Warship.

Eyes turned to the source: the ship where the scarred man stood on deck with a microphone in hand.

"Everyone here knows the rule for passing through the Deep Sea Zone. We need someone expendable to scout the way."

That line made several captains bristle.

Was he about to name someone?

Another voice rang out from a nearby ship.

"Ryder, quit wasting time. Just say what you're thinking."

These guys were all seasoned travelers of the Deep Sea Zone.

They'd even installed massive loudspeakers on their ships to communicate when needed.

Ryder locked eyes with the Medusa Warship in the distance.

"That's right. Let them scout ahead! Those two little thieves on the Medusa Gang's ship are the perfect candidates!"
