"What is this, Father?" Xiao Ling hooked a few times in the water, and actually hooked a small thing.

Ainia tilted her head to see that the calcareous shell, with several crater-like openings on it, revealed the gray flesh inside, which was very disgusting at first glance.

"It's a barnacle, probably hooked up on the bottom of the boat. ”

"It's strange, the bottom of the ship is usually coated with toxic paint specifically for barnacles, and this ship has not been built for a long time, and the paint has not been lost, so there should be no barnacles. ”

"Barnacles are a nuisance, but they taste great. "There is a magician next to his favorite food interjects.

"I want to eat!" Suzu's eyes sparkled, and she threw the barnacles into the fish basket next to her, flicking out the hook and trying to catch a few more.

"I think it should be difficult to catch it again......" The boy touched his chin and didn't say this, the poisonous paint on the bottom of the boat could not avoid the barnacles not attached to it at all, there would always be a few exceptions, Xiao Ling may have been lucky to catch this particular barnacle, but her luck could not have allowed her to catch such a special case all the time.

Without paying attention to the barnacles, the boy looked at his own hook on the surface of the sea, patiently waiting for a fish to take the bait.

Loy killed a few live fish that had been stockpiled for food, threw their blood in the sea, and waited for the sharks to come.

The blood floating on the surface of the sea obscured everyone's gaze, and no one could see through the movement under the dirty sea, let alone the quiet movements of Jerlock at a depth of 100 meters.

Countless sea creatures, large and small, gathered in this direction, and the sea beasts that were once enemies of each other lined up quietly, none of them hunting or fleeing.

The barnacles caught by the small bell are like a monitor, faithfully recording everything on the ship, so that Jerlock can clearly see the every move of the people on the boat even from the bottom of the sea.

The connection between the firestealer's body and the cells that separated it was not magic, but another kind of energy, so even though there were many mages on the ship, and even a few high-level mages existed, no one noticed the unusual nature of the small barnacle.

The mages who fished had their own catches, from time to time some caught fish, others caught jellyfish and octopuses.

The boy didn't have much to gain here, and the little bell around him kept stirring, scaring away all the fish that wanted to come over.

He could only watch the others harvest with envy, and then comfort himself that it was better to exercise patience.

Luo Yiyi, who was a little farther away, caught another fish that was the length of a man's arm, and she looked at the young man's empty fish basket and sneered proudly.

The crowd suddenly stirred, and a middle-aged man dressed in a high-level mage robe walked over from the cabin, and the mages on the ship wanted to greet him.

This man was Rogette, the leader of all the people on this trip.

He frowned as he watched the mages keep catching fish, and seemed upset.

One of the mages closest to him noticed his expression and asked, "Lord Rogert, you look unhappy. ”

"Don't you think you've caught too many fish?" Rogette asked them, "our boat is always moving, and this season is not the breeding season for any fish, and you are using ordinary bait, so why do you keep catching all kinds of fish?

The magicians who heard his words suddenly looked tense and stood up one after another.

"Don't get excited. Rogette reassured, "We're not sure if there's any danger yet, don't cause panic among the researchers who don't have combat effectiveness, turn on the second-level alert first, and divide a team to investigate." ”

"Yes. ”

A few mages around Rogette left in a hurry, preparing to use their instruments to probe the bottom of the sea.

The boy was not far away, and his five senses were much more than ordinary after his body mutated, so he could hear it clearly, and he noticed that many mages who were originally in the cabin had also stepped onto the deck, and the few researchers on the deck who had no combat power were silently persuaded to leave.

"I hope it's not a big deal...... the boy thought silently, put away his fishing gear, and slowly walked to the vicinity of the Asakusa sisters and Luo Yiyi.

"Depend on ......"

Before the young man could speak, Luo Yiyi sneered and squinted and said, "Give up, I won't give it to you." ”

"Huh?" was stunned for a moment before he understood what she said, and the young man rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, "I have something serious to tell you......"

He told Luo Yiyi what he had just heard, and Luo Yiyi's face became serious: "We can't pin the development of things on luck, and we must prepare for the worst in everything, so that we won't be in a hurry when we encounter emergencies." Let's talk about what to do if the worst comes next......"

Seeing that the boy came to chat with Luo Yiyi, Ainia also silently followed over and participated in the discussion.

Only Suzu tried to catch a few more barnacles seriously, wanting to taste the taste of barnacles, and didn't pay attention to the teenager's small movements at all.

But it doesn't matter, if you really encounter something, just summon the merger directly, with the particularity of Xiaoling's body, I'm afraid there is no existence on the home planet that can kill her at all.

No one noticed that in the fish basket next to Suzu, the small barnacle was turning for no reason, silently recording the information of all the people who appeared on the deck.

There are seven high-level mages, thirty-two middle-level mages, ninety-eight beginner mages, and thirteen researchers who have no combat effectiveness.

Jerlock calculated the size of the ship's hull, doubled the known number of people, and estimated the difference in strength between the two sides.

Even with the big guy just caught, the difference between the two is worlds apart.

It looked at the squid the size of an ocean-going ship in the depths, and wondered how to modify its body so that it could hold more people's eyes so that its plan could succeed.

Of course, in addition to cannon fodder, the success of the plan is also very important.

So in another place, on a small artificial island of only nearly 1,000 square meters, the mages who were constantly taking turns casting spells to change the terrain suddenly discovered an anomaly.

"Why did the escape speed suddenly become faster after the magic was released?"

"Is there any special mineral deposit exposed in our altered terrain?"

"It's a bony fish!"

"No, it's impossible for the Hollow Bone Fish to have such an ability to absorb a large amount of magic out of thin air and turn on the second-level alert!"

Under the astonished gaze of the mages, a huge Tuni turtle hundreds of meters long slowly surfaced.

But what makes it different from ordinary Tuni is not only its incredibly large size, but also the dense density of tentacles sticking out of its shell, each of which carries a magical power that cannot be underestimated.
