Let’s put aside the things on earth for now. The next period of time will be busy in the water.
After returning to the volcanic crater, Li Xiao, Zhou Qing and others made some repairs and began to prepare for the initial development of the ocean. First, they built a small dock in the northern part of the volcanic crater, at the sheltered bay that Li Xiao had originally detected.
It is very close to the base of the volcanic crater, so there is no need to build any shelter. We just built a simple wooden house, which is only used to store lockers.
Place the wooden rafts and motor rafts on both sides of the pier, and the preliminary "launching into the sea" arrangements have been completed.
Immediately afterwards, Li Xiao rode the imperial crocodile and slowly walked to the coast. After putting on the diving device, Li Xiao waved to Zhou Qing and then jumped into the water on the imperial crocodile.
Zhou Qing here started the motor raft and followed Li Xiao in the direction of the motor raft.
Li Xiao has long experienced the dangers at the bottom of the sea. The water is home to marine life. If he encounters danger, he basically has nowhere to escape. At this time, the motor raft on the water is his only life-saving harbor.
Therefore, although Zhou Qing did not enter the water, her work is equally important.
Entering the ocean, the colorful underwater world came into view. The diving device in his mouth kept spitting out bubbles along with Li Xiao's breathing. His breathing was smooth and there was no obstruction at all. It must be said that the products produced by Ark System are awesome.
Although the line of sight underwater is not as far as in the air, the sunlight shining from the sea and the various plants glowing underwater make the entire underwater world extremely clear.
Looking around, marine life of all sizes are active in the vast waters in front of us.
After all, King Crocodile is not a marine creature. Although it can stay in the sea for a short time, it must float to the surface for air every once in a while, and its movement speed in the water is not very fast, so Li Xiao's first
The plan is to tame a sea creature as a means of transportation.
The first choice for marine transportation tools is of course the ichthyosaur, which is extremely easy to tame and has good speed. There are many such creatures in shallow sea areas. Li Xiao just rode the king crocodile and swam along the coast for a while, followed by three or four fish.
dragon.
Ichthyosaurs, "curious babies", really like to swim with their curious creatures.
The imperial crocodile accelerated and bit into the mouth a sea fish the size of a millstone in front of it. Under Li Xiao's command, it only bit off half of the fish, and Li Xiao put the remaining half in the inventory, turned around and handed it over again.
He gave it to a strong ichthyosaur that followed him.
The ichthyosaur may be the easiest creature to tame in the ocean. Before half of the fish was eaten, the light of successful taming had already shone on the ichthyosaur. The ichthyosaur excitedly circled around the king crocodile and even used its head to make out with it.
The ground is dotted with king crocodile.
After getting off his mount, Li Xiao patted the king crocodile and asked it to return to the land. Then he took out the ichthyosaur saddle from the inventory and put it on the ichthyosaur...
Throwing the remaining fish meat into the water, Li Xiao rode the tamed ichthyosaur and left directly, leaving several other ichthyosaurs to fight for the fish meat, and at the same time, he also stopped these "curious babies" from following him.
The speed of Ichthyosaurus is obviously much faster than that of Emperor Crocodile. At full speed, he can even feel the resistance brought by the surrounding water flow.
Among the creatures in the sea that can serve as mounts, the speed of ichthyosaurs is only average. The real king of speed is the weird-looking, flat manta ray! Li Xiao also saw several manta rays in the distance. Unfortunately,
Although its saddle is unlocked, monkfish oil is required to tame the manta ray, and monkfish can only be found in the deep sea, so don't think about it for the time being.
The next step was to look around for any sign of the Horseshoe crab. Li Xiao rode an ichthyosaur and headed straight for a stone forest under the water. Creatures like the Horseshoe crab like to hide themselves in corals and seaweeds, and
It moves slowly and is difficult to find if you don't look carefully. Moreover, this is a shallow water area, so it is even more difficult to find.
Of course, Li Xiao also had to be careful. The broad-winged horseshoe crab is not a harmless creature. Its attacks are fast, violent and secretive, and it contains strong paralyzing toxins. If he is hit by it, he may be killed without even taking stimulants.
Stun!
Being unconscious in the sea is no different from death!
Thinking of this, Li Xiao decided to tame a megalodon to protect himself before looking for the Eurypterus giganteus. At least with the megalodon there, he wouldn't be without resistance even if he fainted...
The necessary weapons and tools for taming were already in the inventory. He did not hesitate. After looking around, he stared at a lone megalodon shark in the distance.
Li Xiao first swam to the surface, signaled his position to Zhou Qing, and asked her to drive a motor raft to be ready to meet him at any time. After arranging his retreat, he rode an ichthyosaur and headed straight for the megalodon shark.
The swimming speed of the megalodon is not as fast as that of the ichthyosaur, which is why Li Xiao dared to tame this creature alone.
Megalodon, in the history of the earth, was the largest predator in history, with a powerful bite force that even exceeded that of Tyrannosaurus rex! They are hailed by many paleontologists as the most powerful creatures in the history of the earth!
But in the Arkworld, the Megalodon's level is average. Although it is huge, it is far less dangerous than the plesiosaur Mosasaurus.
However, when Li Xiao got close to the megalodon, he was still shocked by his huge figure - the huge mouth that could easily swallow a car was full of razor-like teeth, and there were several rows of them! In terms of size,
This megalodon is almost ten meters long, which looks much bigger than the land overlord Tyrannosaurus rex!
The player seems to be just an insignificant plankton in front of such a giant beast...
The first time he saw the Megalodon, Li Xiao even had the idea of escape quickly, but unfortunately it was too late, because the distance was too close, and the Megalodon had also discovered them!
Seeing the megalodon coming straight towards him, Li Xiao suppressed the fear in his heart and took out his crossbow.
In the water, all hot weapons lose their effect, and players once again return to the era of cold weapons using spears and crossbows.
He looked at the crossbow loaded with tranquilizer arrows in his hand, and then looked at the huge figure of the megalodon... For a moment, Li Xiao even doubted whether he could bring down this giant beast with tranquilizer.
As for long-range weapons, don't even think about bows and arrows. Only crossbows with mechanical structures and strong power can shoot out tranquilizer arrows.
He does have a harpoon gun that is more powerful and more suitable for attacking in the water, but before unlocking the harpoon tranquilizer arrow, he can only make do with a crossbow. An epic crossbow should be able to shoot even if it loses some kinetic energy in the water.
far away.
"Believe in yourself, the megalodon's anesthesia value is very low! Believe in yourself!" Li Xiao rubbed his face fiercely, silently cheering himself up.
Pointing the crossbow at the swimming megalodon, he pulled the trigger.
The crossbow arrows fired in the water were obviously much slower. The crossbow arrows that originally flew past with a whistling sound were actually slowly penetrated through the water and shot out under Li Xiao's gaze. It looked like it was only about fifty years old.
meter killing distance.
Fortunately, at the same relative speed as the Megalodon swimming at the same speed, the arrow still hit the Megalodon's head. Part of the anesthetic applied on the arrow was lost in the water, but a lot of the anesthetic still successfully entered the giant tooth.
The flesh and blood of toothed sharks.
Seeing the megalodon approaching, Li Xiao didn't bother loading the arrow again. He turned around, mounted the ichthyosaur, and swam directly towards the deep water...
