"Sparkling crystal shells are collected by the indigenous people and raised in this sea area - they are the highest-grade food for monsters. No matter what kind of monsters they are, they like to eat them, even the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon is no exception."
Looking at the sea in the distance, Ian retracted his gaze and turned to the crystal shells in the instrument: "But in addition, there are many other monsters that have been tamed by the indigenous people... They are the guardians of this sea area, and they are also the indigenous people.
Watching eyes."
"Obviously, our process of collecting elemental crystal shells has been discovered, and the indigenous people already know that we are here."
This is not surprising. How could there be no magical beasts wandering around a sublimated creature like the Glimmer Crystal Shell?
Both Gosei and Isengard are already prepared, and the explorers sent to the sea before are also ready for battle.
It's just that this place is actually an indigenous breeding factory, which is really unexpected.
This also confirms Ian's previous speculation: the indigenous people may have discovered the existence of the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon earlier than the Empire, so they have already begun preparations to lure the opponent closer, and then try to 'sacrifice' it as a totem spirit.
.
Compared with the high-level monsters with great potential, such as the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon, the crocodile dragon and the moray eel are just rotten fish and shrimps. In order to achieve this, the Tenglan tribe and Shanchao, who were already on the verge of splitting,
The departments might even join forces again!
Outside the cabin, a calm report from the first mate soon came: "Sir, there are many more sea beasts in the Luminous Sea than we thought. They seem to have been trained and are approaching us. We are almost surrounded."
"In addition, the lookouts noticed that there were indigenous small boats on the far periphery mixed in with the sea beasts. We have reason to believe that it was they who were driving the sea beasts to surround us."
Although the news was very tense, the first mate was not afraid - leaving aside the encirclement of ordinary sea monsters, it was almost no threat to their specially modified exploration ship, even if it was mixed with warcraft and indigenous people.
, the exploration ship also has cannons.
Even if Master Gosei doesn't take action, are there no sublime ones among them?
"It's okay, it's not a big problem. I didn't feel the aura of the two totem spirits."
As expected, Master Gesai gently stroked his beard and said calmly: "Be prepared for battle. The enemy is not strong, but we cannot let them damage the ship structure and instruments."
"Let the gunner debug the alchemy cannon. Ian, in which direction should we break out?"
At the end of the sentence, the old man looked at the white-haired boy. Ian thought for a moment and said: "Southwest."
"Well, let's break out toward the southwest."
Although Master Gesai has the ability to destroy all sea beasts, it would be a waste of time, physical strength and energy, and the longer everything is delayed, the more likely accidents will occur. They cannot waste too much time.
Ian determined the direction, the old man set the tone, and Isengard stepped forward to take the lead in assigning work, asking the four masters who had entered the sea to drink stamina potions to replenish their previous consumption.
The exploration ship is well organized and everyone is working enthusiastically.
Ian was idle again. Theoretically, this battle still had nothing to do with him. One more of him would not be more, and one less of him would not be a lot. There was no need for a Wanderer to join the battlefield. He might be asked to sing for him at the critical moment.
The ship is accelerating.
However, he himself had no intention of continuing to fish - he was also very interested and wanted to know what the natives planned.
Moreover, the natives who almost starved to death after the war were able to tame so many magical beasts recently... He wanted to estimate with his own eyes just how much aid Feiyandi had given.
"Besides, did Patrick reach an agreement with the indigenous people in just a few days and start leaking information?"
Thinking of the rapid appearance of the natives, Ian couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "That's all, it's all a good thing."
Several groups of people with threats and ideas gathered together, and the effect was not that one plus one was greater than two... If Patrick and the indigenous people really cooperated, the efficiency of both parties must be less than two.
In the luminous sea, in the wind and rain, next to a small frigate that was almost completely obscured by the rain curtain.
The sea beast is near.
Ian took out his high-pressure water gun and walked out of the cabin.
Even in the cabin, you can feel the solemn atmosphere, and after walking out of the cabin, the roars of distant beasts indeed become clearer, and there are even many voices that Ian is very familiar with - reef-eating sea otters, sea crocodiles, habitats, etc.
Just by scanning from a distance, Ian could see these familiar figures, some of which were members of the Warcraft clan, and some of which were ordinary sea beasts, but the number was indeed shocking.
"After I go back, I need to remind the Viscount... Well, I don't think I need to remind him. After talking about Feiyandi last time, he must have noticed something abnormal soon."
Ian is quite confident about Viscount Grant's ability. Although he knows nothing about the professional field, he will not give some lay instructions, and the lord is very proficient in everything he knows.
Outside the ship, everyone was ready for battle. They held harpoons and steel hooks in their hands. The sea-born swordsman was wiping his long sword. The rippling sword became more powerful on the rainy day.
, it’s like breathing in and out of the surrounding water vapor.
You can vaguely see a line of inscriptions visible to the naked eye flowing on the sword.
The other three ascendants all chose bows and arrows.
"Woooo——"
The sound was very close, and there were overlapping low-pitched chirps from the sea area close to the exploration ship. In the rough sea, you could vaguely see shadows moving rapidly under the sea, trying to catch up with the ship that had begun to turn.
.
"Start attacking."
It was Isengard who was responsible for issuing the attack command. After hearing these words, Master Gosei nodded with satisfaction, then raised his hand and drew a circle in the air.
The white shock waves visible to the naked eye gathered into a group in this circle, and the high-speed oscillating air shook the water vapor, turning it into a cloud-like form. Then, accompanied by a scream, a long white flowing cloud
'It turned into several invisible spears and stabbed towards the water.
Buzz! Only the vibration could be heard, and then, the three largest shadows in the sea stopped moving. Then, large balls of red and blue blood poured out crazily, dyeing the sea red.
The swirling squid, the beaming dolphin and the scaleless iron snake...these monsters that could easily affect ships and instruments were killed immediately.
The next battle is just a warm-up.
Noticing these details, Ian nodded, and then continued to move forward with his high-pressure water gun.
"Guide...you don't have to fight this time."
When the captain who led the shell harvesting team saw Ian, the skinny man was a little surprised. After he noticed the cylinder in the young man's hand, he mistakenly thought it was an alchemical fire gun, so he smiled kindly and said, "Although the alchemical fire gun is very powerful,
, but it will be more difficult to use in rainy days, and the electricity spilled from the ubiquitous sand gunpowder will cause injury."
"It's okay." Ian responded with a smile: "I'm not a firecracker."
The captain asked a little curiously: "What is that?"
The sea beast is approaching.
Ian did not reply immediately. His eyes lit up with a water-colored halo, and he easily locked onto those familiar figures - stone-armored giant fish, giant squid, iron-covered sea otters, and various strange things.
He raised his gun, took aim skillfully, and then entered the source of matter.
The pressurized cabin rotates rapidly, and the faint light of water-based source material visible to the naked eye condenses on the cylinder of the high-pressure water gun.
The next step was to pull the trigger.
A thin straight water column broke through the rain curtain and waves, went straight into the sea water, and shot towards the shadows under the sea. Immediately, a tragic howl of pain could be heard. A reef-eating sea otter was hit in the lower body without even noticing it. It was violently hit in the lower body.
The pain instantly destroyed the fighting will of the beast that was close to the monster.
“Aieeeeeee————”
The indescribable scream resounded throughout the entire sea area, and even the surrounding Warcraft beasts heard it. Their speed began to slow down and their actions began to hesitate, so that some beasts suddenly woke up. They looked at the situation of the sea otter,
Then he looked in the direction of the exploration ship, and then reversed the angle in awe.
At the same time, the sea otter ran away without looking back, creating a wave of red water.
Because he did not predict the impact of the waves on the water column, he did not penetrate the other party's heart. Ian was not annoyed, after all, the effect was the same.
The young man turned his head and looked at the captain whose eyes were dull and subconsciously closed his legs. He smiled and said: "This is a water gun."
"yes."
The captain looked in awe at the cylinder that released a dangerous aura in Ian's hand: "This is a water gun."
