Chapter 67: The Sea Beast Appears
The closer you get to that area, the bigger the waves become, the Storm Wave rises and falls, and everyone's hands involuntarily grasp the hull and cables. The furious roar of the sea beast overwhelmed the raging storm and reached everyone's ears clearly.
Wu Ye saw that Ji Yuanhou had returned to the command room below the platform, while the one-legged man was still standing above the platform, looking ahead with excitement but a little fear. Wu Ye suddenly understood his identity: the seaman who presented the scales to Ji Yuanhou. Unexpectedly, he had been on the boat all this time and had already lost a leg.
Wu Ye shouted at him: "Come down quickly, there is a lot of wind and waves there, be careful of falling into the sea." ”
Haike seemed to hear Wu Ye's shout, glanced at Wu Ye contemptuously, as if laughing at Wu Ye's cowardice, and then continued to look intently ahead, where was the battlefield of the brave.
The huge waves crashed against the hull of the ship, and some of the weaker men clenched with their hands what could hold their bodies to the boat, their knuckles white.
Wu Ye shouted at Chai Zhi to take the three brothers to the room first, there was a strong wind and waves outside, they would be turned into the sea, Chai Zhi asked the three brothers to hold on to their clothes firmly, touch the railing, and carefully move to the cabin. Suddenly, a huge wave made the people at the tail of the team instantly catapulted into the air, and when they fell, they were blown out of the hull by the sea breeze, Wu Ye had no choice but to let go of the railing in his hand, and ran towards them along the inclined deck, and when he came to them, he grabbed the railing with one hand, and the whole person drew an arc in the air, scooped up the person from the outside of the hull and put it back on the deck, the mute brother turned pale with fright, knelt on the ground and clung to the clothes of the person in front of him and did not let go.
Wu Ye pulled their arms, fixed them with his own strength, rose and fell with the deck, and then carefully led them into the cabin, and when the three brothers were safe, Wu Ye and Chai Zhi turned back to the deck, and they were greeted by huge waves higher than the hull, everyone's clothes were wet, and the wet and bloody sea water made everyone chill. The seafarer standing on the platform had already entered a state of madness, shouting at the sea beasts in the distance, and when the waves came, his crutches were washed away, and he clung to a pillar so that he would not be swept into the sea together.
Wu Ye saw that another higher wave was about to come, if the seafarer didn't come down again, he would definitely be knocked into the sea, and now everyone was in danger, who would save a companion who fell into the sea. Wu Ye immediately ran towards Haike, his feet alternately stepped on the various flying barrels and debris on the way, and grabbed Haike, at this time the waves had fallen overhead, and Haike's arm that grabbed the pillar could no longer support it, but the other arm had been held by Wu Ye, and the huge impulse force made Haike's whole body come across in the air, and he shouted something vaguely in his mouth, even Wu Ye, who had just been tempered, couldn't understand what he wanted to express.
Someone in the command room motioned to Wu Ye to bring the Haike over, and Wu Ye directly pulled his body in the storm, and the Haike, who was still being pulled in the air and couldn't land, ran towards the command room.
When the seafarer arrived at the command room, he still did not return to normal, curled up in a mass like a frightened shrimp.
Ji Yuanhou glanced at the sea guest with pity, and immediately took command, ordering someone to anchor about five miles away from the sea beast to stabilize the ship. Then find a way to aim the crossbow on the side of the ship at the sea beast, looking for a chance to kill with one hit.
Wu Ye asked what he needed to do. Ji Yuanhou glanced at Wu Ye and seemed to have found something wrong, but instead of continuing to delve into it, he asked Wu Ye to go to the side of the ship to see how the thunder crossbow was prepared, and he must make sure that the thunder crossbow could shoot out accurately.
Wu Ye opened the door of the command room, and immediately couldn't open his eyes when he was forced by the rushing seawater, on the one hand, he needed to keep himself firmly nailed to the deck, and on the other hand, he also had to pay attention to the people around him not to be blown into the sea, so he didn't care about being embarrassed, and ran directly to the side of the hull, Chai Zhi was also called by him on the way.
There are two thunder crossbows on both sides of the Dingfeng wave, which is a special giant crossbow specially created for the sea beast, and five people need to pull the turntable when opening the crossbow, and the eight thunder halberds equipped with them are also blessed with thunder, in such a thunderous and lightning roaring weather, the thunder halberd's whole body is also covered with thunder, and there are constantly lightning around the halberd body, making a crackling explosion.
At this time, the anchor had been lowered, and the storm was no longer approaching, the two thunder crossbows were slowly opened, and the thunder halberds were placed on the track, just waiting for Ji Yuanhou to order.
At this moment, something unexpected happened, the heavy and violent dark clouds suddenly disappeared, as if there was a huge mouth in the sky to suck it away, the blue sky and sunshine, the wind and waves were calm, and the crew who were still nervous just now did not react for a while, if it were not for the wet sea water all over their bodies, they would have thought that the thrilling scene just now was a nightmare.
At the same time, the sea beasts that have been fighting against nature are nowhere to be seen, and the calm sea surface is like a mirror, reflecting a mesmerizing golden light.
Everyone loosened the railings and cables that had just been used to hold their bodies in place, and walked to the side of the ship and leaned out into the distance and into the sea, hoping to find some trace or evidence that it was not a dream.
Suddenly, a huge momentum came from the bottom of the ship, which lifted the Dingfeng Bo directly, and many people who leaned out to check it were caught off guard and fell into the sea.
"It's underneath the ship!" Someone was shouting.
The people on the boat threw down the cables, but they didn't dare to go down to save people, they just hoped that the people who fell into the water would be able to save themselves. Fortunately, these people who were in trouble were just the crew members who set the storm, and the doormen accompanying Ji Yuanhou and the warriors who responded to this trip to sea were still relatively calm, and after learning that the sea beasts were lurking at the bottom of the ship, they took out their weapons one after another, and found a good position to wait.
Wu Ye grabbed a cable and jumped directly into the sea, grabbed a person who fell into the water, and threw it back to the deck when the cable swung up. The rest of the warriors saw it, but they didn't care, at this time, the movement of the sea beast was still unclear, wasting their strength to save the crew who fell into the sea, obviously putting themselves in danger, most people would not choose to do so. Only a guy like Wu Ye who doesn't know the depths will still be full of sympathy at this time.
Bang, there was a loud noise at the bottom of the ship again, and the ordinary crew members had already found their own hiding places, after all, hunting sea beasts was not something they could do.
After two impacts, there was a deathly silence. Wu Ye swayed around, rescuing all the people who fell into the water one by one, and the sea beast did not regard Wu Ye as a target.
At this time, someone pointed to the front of Dingfeng Bo and shouted, "Look, what is that?" ”
