Chapter Ninety-One: Boat Fishing at the Sea
The sun is high, and the coconut trees grow from the white sand, and the waves rise and fall on the sand.
At this time, some people were on the beach under the sun, and one of them, a young man dressed in aristocratic costumes, and a girl dressed as a noble lady were sitting under a huge open cowhide umbrella and looking at the busy group of people on the beach in front of them.
Behind the young man stood several guards, one of whom was unusually tall and clad in iron armor that was different from the others.
This aristocratic young man is Alan, the girl next to him is Belea, the tall guard behind him is Bud, and the group of people on the beach are warriors of the Blue Desolation Collar.
After dealing with the Night Collar, robbing Viscount Cory, and obtaining a large number of elemental crystals and five hundred war horses, Eren fell into nothingness again.
Now there are nine places in the territory to help manage, and the army can't expand the army now, after all, it hasn't been long since the end of the war, and there is no longer a threat to the Mu Sen Territory, so Alan decided to slow down, after all, the warrior Allen with infantry strength is now a little unlikely, and Allen is ready to wait until the giant frog matures again before thinking about it.
Among the five hundred spars compensated by Viscount Cory, there are more than 200 fire element spars that have been used by Allen to cultivate the Flame Wheat, and now the Flame Wheatk is about to grow to the peak of the second order of transformation, and as for the Fire Wood Vine that is far away in the Wood Vine Collar, it is not yet time to harvest.
Allen, who had been idle all of a sudden, was no longer idle after only a few days in the Blue Wilderness Castle.
No, suddenly Alan became curious about the kraken on the seaside of the territory, so he brought some warriors to the seaside, ready to get a glimpse of the kraken.
The place where Alan is located today is on the seashore south of Greengrass Collar, and from the direction of Greengrass Town, after passing through a sparse forest, you can reach this beach.
Since the Kraken often attacks the territory of the sea, people who live by the sea can often see the Kraken, but it does not mean that the Kraken can meet each other, after all, in the Musen Territory, only the Fishing Territory has developed the territory of the seaside.
Unless they actively attack Terran territory, it is difficult to catch them, and even if the Kraken is unaware of the fisherman's nets, they can tear them open with their sharp claws and teeth.
In order to catch the kraken Eren also took a lot of effort, the sea is extremely dangerous, and it is extremely unwise to go to sea by boat, both to catch the kraken and reduce the risk, and finally Alan thought of "fishing".
Ordinary Krakens are similar to beasts and fishes, they have little intelligence to speak of, they are fierce and bloodthirsty, they will attack directly when they see objects on the sea, and they are extremely sensitive to the smell of blood.
Of course, the Kraken is not a fish, and it will not be caught easily, after all, it can walk upright on the shore, and although its hands may not be as agile as humans, it is not bad, and if it is a simple hook, it is likely to break free.
It is said that the Kraken is also quite large, and when it stands upright, it is almost the same height as an ordinary adult, and its body is stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, so it is difficult to succeed with an ordinary hook fishing line.
In order to catch the Kraken, Alan deliberately asked the Logistics Bureau to make several special iron hooks, the hooks are covered with sharp barbs, once the fishman is hit, he basically can't take it off, unless he doesn't want his mouth anymore, if he wants to break free of the hook, he can only pull the hook and his mouth off his face.
Originally, Alan wanted to use thin iron wire, but the iron-making process in the territory was limited, and it was difficult to pull out both long and tough iron wire, so in desperation, Allen could only choose to use an iron rod with chopsticks thick to make a section of chains, and in order to make four chains that were nearly four or five hundred meters long, the entire logistics bureau spent two whole days.
After the hook and line were completed, Alan couldn't wait to come here with the guards and his men, and now the guards are preparing at the beach.
"Lord Baron, everything is ready!" a guard reported to Alan.
"Okay! let them start!" Alan nodded.
"Yes!" the guard immediately went to the front to convey the order.
"Master Ellen, what do you say the Kraken will look like?" Belia picked up a grape chicken patty from the table and handed it to Alan's mouth, saying with a curious expression.
Alan opened his mouth, took the cake into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, you won't be able to see it!"
In fact, Alan has never seen a kraken, but he has heard that the kraken is extremely similar to a human, but it is a fishhead and a human body, which is exactly the opposite of the human body and fishtail that Allen is familiar with.
However, it is unknown whether the Kraken will be able to be caught this time.
Although Alan knew that the Kraken was extremely active in the sea area of the Mu Sen Territory, he was not sure that there must be Kraken activity in this area now, except for the port of the Fishing Domain, although there may be Kraken in other places, but due to the scarcity of humans, there are not many Kraken haunts.
This is also the reason why Eren planned to go to the port of the Catch Territory in the first place, and the Catch Territory is attacked by the Kraken clan every year, and it is certain that the sea area near the Catch Territory is definitely inhabited by the Kraken tribe.
However, not long ago, the port, which had been closed due to the impact of the war, had been reopened under the orders of Allen, and in the face of the crowds, Allen still gave up the idea of setting the location at the fishing port.
After receiving Allen's order, the warriors began to place the hooks full of fresh flesh and blood on a small wooden boat, with a small sail hanging on the wooden boat, and then poured all the chicken and duck blood that had been prepared on the flesh, and for a while the unpleasant smell of blood wafted away.
After a while, the four small wooden boats were ready, and with the help of the warriors, the small wooden boats began to move forward with the direction of the wind. A few warriors tied the other end of the thin iron rope to the boulder brought by the Bard Knight on the shore, and then several warriors sat down on the stone together.
The wooden boat, which Allen had instructed the carpenters in the Logistics Bureau, was only two meters long and was used to hold flesh and blood.
After all, it is impossible for Allen to throw the iron cable more than 400 meters away, and a wooden boat can, plus other predatory fish in the waterproof to eat the hook, the wooden boat is a good choice.
After all, it is impossible for other fish to come forward and destroy the fishing boat after smelling blood or seeing a fishing boat like the Kraken, and the reason why Eren put the flesh on the wooden boat is also based on the Kraken's habits.
Boosted by a gust of sea breeze, the small wooden boat drove slowly and leisurely, and after a while, it finally reached the limit distance of the iron cable.
More than 400 meters apart, the wooden boat, which is two meters long and one meter wide, has the size of a basin and is constantly tossed on the surface of the sea with the waves.
The four wooden boats are also separated from each other by a large distance, which is also for fear of the entanglement of the four iron cables.
"Your Excellency, it's done!" the guard reported again.
"Let the warriors be vigilant and be ready!" Alan commanded, after all, no one knew when the Kraken would take the bait.
"Yes, Lord Baron!"
