Chapter 537 Is it the icing on the cake or a timely help?
The fog... is really quite heavy.
Li Chao stared at the rolling white fog waves in the distance, and the visual distance was reduced from the usual 80 meters to less than 20 meters.
This is abnormal for a temporary base that has been opened up as a safe zone.
There was also fog on the sea surface.
Seeing this, Li Chao suddenly turned around and ran back to his room. After pressing a few buttons on the console, he frowned and stared at the parameters. After about ten seconds, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it's not a giant beast activity."
Generally, abnormal fog concentration is a precursor to the activity of giant beasts. The area they are in has just experienced a fierce battle, so they have to be careful about the increase in fog at all times.
"Li Chao, it's foggy outside."
"Well, it has been found that there is no abnormality in the monitoring."
"There is nothing wrong with the fog analyzer."
The conversation between the commander and Li Chao in the communication chain was naturally heard by others. After everyone confirmed that it was safe, the tone became relaxed again.
The campground continues to be in full swing.
…
"Moo?"
A large rhinoceros head was raised from the sea, with a jellyfish hanging on its horn that dared not move.
Those little human eyes were full of doubts.
With a crash, the heads of a moon-white giant rhinoceros were raised from behind. These guys with keen senses also noticed something strange after the leader's reminder.
It's not that it's dangerous, but it's a familiar scent.
It's as familiar as this crystal snapping turtle.
That's why the leader of the Moon White Giant Rhinoceros, who was leading the group to eat meat, looked up curiously.
"Moo~"
It called out, and more than thirty fat rhinos including it came up at the same time.
Then the crystal turtle shell under their feet was revealed.
The [Fortress] floats like a hill, carrying the laden moon-white giant rhinos back to the shore.
As for why it replaced the rhinoceros bird and became a rhinoceros turtle, we have to talk about it from ten days ago.
In the words of the owner, this is called a community of interests.
It was the truth conveyed to it by the largest rhinoceros.
The fog on the sea is flowing and rolling rapidly.
"Moo moo?" The leader of the moon-white giant rhinoceros finally couldn't help but ask their "landing ship". At the same time, he heated a large squid with a rhino horn and threw it to the diligent crystal snapping turtle.
[Fortress] opened his mouth and accurately picked up the grilled squid, chewing it while giving his answer carefully.
The low sound waves clearly conveyed its meaning to the moon-white giant rhinos.
Very familiar indeed.
Because it was the closest creature to the battlefield that day.
This is the scent of the giant pseudo-colored starfish.
The atmosphere among the mist behemoths is still very familiar, especially for the high-level behemoths who were also beaten by their masters, [Fortress] remembers it more clearly.
【No danger.】
Finally, it summarized its answer in the affirmative.
The leader of the Moon White Giant Rhino blinked his eyes and finally satisfied his thirst for knowledge.
It chewed the delicious seafood, looked up at the foggy sky, and suddenly missed the days of fighting with that man.
…
…
The fortress's judgment was correct; it was indeed the giant pseudo-colored starfish.
While it was happily eating the cyanobacteria it had just collected, a direct micro-communicator near its brain was activated.
The babbling sound is accurately transmitted to the brain.
Its tentacles stretched straight like a train car.
It has been about three days and nights since I heard this arrogant voice.
Now that I hear it, I seem a little angry.
The huge body of the giant pseudo-colored starfish shrank. It was obviously hiding in an area of 500 meters under the sea. It was obviously the undisputed overlord of this sea area. Why did it still feel a little scared?
It looked around cautiously, and the cold sea water brought it a comfortable temperature.
There are no natural enemies.
Confirm safety.
But why are you still willing to listen to the babbling sound of that little beast?
Well, it’s not that I’m afraid, it’s just a need for survival!
The inexplicable idea gave it inexplicable confidence.
After stuffing the last clump of cyanobacteria into its mouth with its tentacles, the giant starfish lazily stretched its body.
Being docile by nature, it has no intention of actively attacking humans, and it won't do so now.
It just uses its original talent to slightly adjust the direction of the fog in the nearby sea area.
In the language of the person who beat him up, this is called attendance at work.
After finishing your shift, you will receive feedback on new food locations from that island.
Therefore, the giant starfish has no objection to this matter at all, and is even a little excited deep inside.
Its tentacles were slightly raised, and the giant pseudo-chromatic force field that was so good at moistening things silently began to quietly prop up above the sea.
There is no error in the detection of Yanhuang Army's temporary base.
The changes in the dense fog on the sea have nothing to do with the fog beasts, including this giant starfish getting ready for work.
The most fundamental reason is the submarine volcano that spews blue magma.
In Lu Ze's information database, the volcanoes that emit blue glowing lava are not submarine active volcanoes in the traditional sense.
Instead, it has another name - [Planet Crack].
Because of Lu Ze, the Yanhuang Army achieved full occupation of the northern waters of Baodao early in this life.
Therefore, this resulted in the variable that the hidden planetary rift was triggered by coincidence.
This variable can even offset the local advantages achieved by humans in a strategic sense.
After the planetary rift is triggered, the star source power dust will be spewed out hundreds of times that of the normal area, which is an excellent opportunity for the evolution of the fog beasts.
Approximately 10 days after triggering, the weather conditions in the nearby area will be permanently changed.
Although Lu Ze left the northern sea area, the massive fog flags planted by his troops were faithfully recording the parameter fluctuations in the entire sea area.
Viewing the data of these sea areas is a normal permission for the leaders of each team.
Even under the orders of their superiors, they must be forced to know in order to provide valuable experience for subsequent Mist pioneers.
Lu Ze never lets go of the accumulation of bits and pieces of information, because this is the key to moving from quantitative change to qualitative change.
According to Lu Ze's calculations, starting from 12 noon today, it should be a period of rapid growth of sea fog.
One day later, the maritime area control department will conduct a route assessment.
Two days later, when the sea team discovered ocean weather that was comparable to a "fog cyclone", the original relevant routes entered an irreversible process from downgrading to cancellation.
Unfortunately, a safe route exclusive to Dongsheng City happens to coincide with this foggy area.
What's even more unlucky is that a fleet from Dongsheng City happened to be returning today.
…
…
[Grindstone Fleet], the ninth caravan in the Dongsheng City sequence, is mainly responsible for the transaction of energy and mineral deposits. Although the number of ships is smaller than that of other material procurement teams, it is still more important.
Of.
All major families in Dongsheng City hold corresponding shares in this fleet.
After all, no one can refuse wealth.
But compared with the previous satisfactory return journeys, the situation at this moment was enough to sound the alarm for help.
The caravan captain and first mate were looking at the completely chaotic instrument panel, their minds buzzing.
"This is obviously a safe route...how could there be such an exaggerated thick fog!"
"Captain, what should we do?" the second officer looked at the senior captain.
"Offline sea area maps can still make simple orientation judgments. If we withdraw from the original route and then change the route, it will be delayed for at least half a month!"
"So, my opinion is to make a detour according to the offline sea area map!"
At this moment, the captain of the Millstone Fleet showed the confidence that he has been able to brave the wind and waves all year round.
"I agree with Captain Wu."
"Seconded."
The three of them settled on it.
The huge [Grindstone Fleet], under the command of the experienced Captain Wu, began a magnificent circumnavigation journey.
…
Twenty nautical miles away, the giant starfish looked at the human fleet with some curiosity.
Why draw a circle in place?
So until the next order arrives, do you cooperate with the other party?
So the giant starfish, which thought it understood the high-level humanoid creature's thoughts, did what it thought was the icing on the cake.
The pseudochromatic force field spreads silently.
…
"Look, there's an island ahead!"
"There's some over there too!"
On the observation deck of the Millstone Fleet, the sailors looked at the gradually thinning fog and shouted excitedly.
In the captain's room, Captain Wu had a subtle smile on his face.
