As the distance between the two parties gradually narrowed, more details could be seen clearly. In addition, Chen Ziyan's vision was strengthened by the blood in his body, so he discovered the abnormality at the first time.
Although he couldn't immediately determine how many ships there were under the dark curtain, judging from the vague outlines, there must be at least seven or eight ships, and they could be regarded as a fleet.
After hearing Chen Ziyan's words, even though the wind and waves around him became more and more noisy, everyone present had no intention of paying attention to it. Everyone was staring at the strange fleet heading here, trying hard to open their eyes wide, thinking.
To see more details.
As the fleet gradually entered the illumination range of the searchlight, more and more details could be seen.
The first is the shape of these ships. It is not an exaggeration to say that the ancient and the modern are combined. It can be said that the classic ship types from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to modern times are included. Secondly, these ships are very old and have obviously been abandoned for a long time.
"Could these be...ghost ships?"
After everyone else saw this clearly, some people couldn't help but exclaimed.
There is no way, for these people who live on the water all year round, it is difficult not to think of this when they see such a scene.
Chen Ziyan did not express an opinion, but glanced at the person who spoke out from the corner of his eye.
But no one knew that in his heart, he had quietly removed this person from the suspicious list.
The reason is also very simple, that is, this person is too impatient.
Chen Ziyan believed that he was not the only one who had similar thoughts at this moment, but he was the only one who blurted it out, which undoubtedly explained the problem.
Although it is a bit arbitrary, he has reason to believe that this person will not be arranged by someone with intentions, because such a superficial and conspicuous behavior is obviously not suitable for hiding oneself.
As for the possibility of 'doing the opposite', Chen Ziyan had not thought of it, but as soon as the thought arose, he was decisively killed by himself.
Because that's not the way to play tricks. If you rush to attract his attention now, it will have no effect except being counterproductive.
"Whether it's a ghost ship or not is debatable, but the chain-link boat probably didn't run away."
At this moment, Dong Yanxia's voice rang out, attracting Chen Ziyan's attention.
After hearing what he said, the others were stunned for a moment, but when they looked at the ships carefully, they immediately understood why Dong Yanxia said that.
I saw that the boats that were slowly approaching here seemed to be separate individuals, but in fact they were connected together by something similar to vines.
Although it is not an iron rope, Lian Zhou has been seen by all.
However, compared to the vines, Chen Ziyan paid more attention to another point, which was the ability Dong Yanxia showed through this incident.
You must know that as the first discoverer of the fleet, Chen Ziyan has never relaxed, but even so, he still needs Dong Yanxia's reminder to discover those vines. Doesn't this mean that the other party's eyesight is stronger than his own?
Although Chen Ziyan has not deliberately trained his eyesight, after acquiring the bloodline, all aspects of his physical quality have been improved, including his eyesight, which has already reached a level far beyond that of ordinary people.
Now that Dong Yanxia can surpass him in this aspect, the meaning is far from simple as it seems.
As far as Chen Ziyan knows, there are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that Dong Yanxia has undergone special training since he was a child, just like their Wenshan Dragon Defense skill in Xiling, and the other is talent, such as his uncle's
'Night Eyes'.
But no matter which one it is, it shows that Dong Yanxia is not a simple person.
Unfortunately, now is not the time to explore this, so Chen Ziyan had to suppress his doubts temporarily and turn his attention back to the matter in front of him.
Looking at the fleet that had completely entered the range of searchlights, Chen Ziyan realized that his previous idea was correct. Although these ships seemed to have complete frames, in fact they were just a bunch of empty shelves with only superficial appearance, let alone
A normal voyage would have sunk to the bottom of the sea long ago if it weren't for the support of those weird vines.
In other words, this seems to be a fleet, but in fact it is just a special floating island composed of abandoned ships.
Scanning his eyes over the floating island in the distance, Chen Ziyan felt that this special floating island might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Although it looks lifeless on the surface, this is just the 'surface'. Who knows what is going on in those cabins, and no one can say for sure what is inside.
Maybe it's filled with sea monkeys, waiting to pick up the ship and attack them secretly.
Thinking of this possibility, Chen Ziyan could not let these abandoned ships continue to approach, and immediately issued an order:
"Fire! Don't let those ships come near!"
No matter whether the situation is what he thought, there is nothing wrong with being careful.
After hearing Chen Ziyan's words, the gunners, who had already received instructions from the captain, sent the shells out of the barrel without hesitation.
Boom boom boom——
Although the artillery is a bit old, its power is still sufficient, at least it is no problem for the situation at hand.
As the shells exploded, several gaps instantly appeared on the floating island in the distance.
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan quickly urged the gunners to keep up their efforts, because he heard special noises inside the abandoned ships.
Obviously his guess was correct, there was indeed something hidden in it.
But before the gunner could finish loading, a sharp roar rang out.
Everyone followed the sound and saw a huge monster appearing at the highest point of the floating island.
This monster has a human form, but it is two to four meters tall. It is covered with scales and has a hideous and ugly face, just like the mountain spirit and sea monster in the novel.
Chen Ziyan recognized the identity of the monster at a glance. It was exactly the sea monkey he expected.
But before he could tell what he had discovered, there were echoes from inside the floating island over there, and then he saw sea monkeys jumping out from all corners of the floating island.
Although the sea monkeys that came out later were much smaller than the first ones, and could be considered the size of ordinary people at most, the number was really staggering. At a rough glance, there would definitely be no less than thirty.
After all, this is a terrifying number.
Even if others haven't recognized the identity of these sea monkeys, they already know that they are some kind of amphibious creatures, so it goes without saying how bad the situation is.
This was evident from the solemn looks on everyone's face on the deck. Almost all of them had their weapons in their hands, even Dong Yanxia, who had always been carefree, was no exception.
