"What?" Levi and First Officer Green's faces were slightly serious, and they immediately pulled out the binoculars on their waists, and looked in the direction pointed by the observation post, just a thousand kilometers in front of them, on the sea in front of them, six things tied up with weeds and logs, which could barely be called small sampans, were floating with the waves, and a dozen dwarf creatures with blue and black bodies were holding short spear-like weapons, and their mouths were wide open as if they were shouting something, and looking at their appearance, it was obvious that they had already discovered Levi's ship. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And in Levi's telescope, around the six simple sampans, black shadows also appeared below the sea surface from time to time, churning unnatural waves, like countless schools of fish swimming. Many black shadows appeared on the surface of the sea with the undulation of the waves, and the blue-black scales on the body shimmered in the water in the telescope against the sun, and nearly a hundred Kou Tao fishmen popped out of the sea, wah-wow screaming as if they were cheering that they had found their prey again.

"Kou Tao Fishman? I don't know if they're unlucky, or if we're unlucky? ”

Levi calmly put down his binoculars and begged for his life at sea for two years, of course he knew about this humanoid creature that was everywhere like a mouse. Levi cleared his throat vigorously, casually spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm outboard the boat next to him, and pulled out the scimitar at his waist with his right hand, and at the same time, a rough and thick flintlock pistol appeared in his left hand. Taking a deep breath, Levi also raised his head and shouted, "Brothers, prepare for battle!" ”

The Kou Tao Fishmen are one of the most numerous alien races in this sea, and their racial advantage may be far more than that of humans. Moreover, they are amphibians on the sea routes, and even if they do not have excellent sea boats, they can drift on the sea for a long time with the help of rudimentary tools, and appear on the coastline of islands or the waterways of human fleets at any time. Even if they are hunted down by the regular army and militia every year, they seem to appear endlessly.

However, the Koutao Fishmen are only low-IQ creatures, and with the exception of some Fishman shamans and leaders, most of the Koutao Fishmen have an IQ equivalent to that of a human five-year-old child. But with that primitive bloodthirsty tribal civilization and an innate amphibious racial talent, the Kou Tao Fishmen are arguably the most common predators on the sea, threatening and destroying coastal villages even worse than those of the real pirate gangs.

Of course, for Levi, he sneered at these Kou Tao fishmen. This group of humanoids who are still in the primitive society, the weapons they use are all made of coral and stone, and the tactics are to rush up in a hurry, or to retreat in a hurry, unless it is to plunder those unprepared villages or farms, or to those unsuspecting fishing boats and fishermen, otherwise for anyone who is prepared, this group of so-called Kou Tao fishmen can not cause much heavy losses and casualties.

"Fifty meters forward, sail down the ship to the wind, and prepare for the broadside battle!"

Holding the scimitar in his hand high, Levi's voice was extremely calm, he had been in this world for more than three years, and he had stood on this Devo merchant ship and fought against many murderous enemies. The so-called goodness has long since faded in him, and now he is holding a scimitar and a short musket, and he is simply an excellent warrior who is truly familiar with naval warfare. What's more, the group of Kou Tao fishmen in front of him, he didn't know how many of them had been killed in the previous battles with the scimitar in his right hand!

With his order, the triangular soft sails on the mast of the Devo merchant ship had also been untied, and the swelling of the sails that had eaten the wind quickly deflated by the untied ropes. The inverted triangle-shaped flat bottom and slightly wide hull of the ship were like a shuttle quickly paddling across the waves of the sea, pressing the waves that rushed under him, allowing the entire Devoe merchant ship to rush forward more quickly.

The sailor who was originally on the watchtower had also slid down the cable competently, and his nimble body stood on the deck like a monkey. The sailors next to him also handed over a sharp scimitar, and the sailors also had mocking smiles on their faces, obviously not at all nervous about the attack of the Kou Tao fishman. This made the surrounding passengers with panic on their faces relieved, and they all raised the tools they carried with them, gritting their teeth to help in the battle.

"Six people take muskets to the aft deck, pay attention to the situation in the surrounding seas!"

First mate Green is not a shrewd businessman, and he is also the toughest warrior in this situation. The scimitar on his waist had been pulled out by him, and the cold light shimmered in his hand, and as his gaze calmly swept over the simple sampan that was gradually drifting over in the distance, he turned his head and pointed at the dozen sailors around him with the scimitar, and commanded loudly: "Watch the barrels around, don't let these damn little guys throw all our harvest into the sea!" ”

These barrels filled with fresh herring were, in the eyes of First Officer Levi and First Officer Green, a cornucopia full of small silver coins. If those Kou Tao fishmen had overturned the boat and overturned all these delicious herrings into the sea, then they would have lost all the hundreds of small silver coins they had spent this morning. The group of sailors also knew this very well, and they scattered on both sides of the deck, guarding each other's barrels, and vigilantly swept the sea outside the ship.

And on the distant sea, on the simple sampan that had been barely piled up with weeds and logs, and I was afraid that a big wave would break it all up, the traces of the group of Kou Tao Fishmen had disappeared, and only the countless black shadows under the sea swam at a great speed towards Levi's Devo merchant ship. The Kotao Fishmen are amphibious creatures, and their best tactic is to lurk under the surface of the sea, holding their coral short spears flat, and stepping on the waves of the sea with their webbed feet, and instantly rushing onto the deck to launch a surprise attack!

"Everyone be careful, these guys are weak, but they are also absolutely murderous."

Levi and First Officer Green were not far apart, and their eyes swept the sea in front of them with extreme vigilance, and the scimitar that flashed with cold light and the short musket that pulled the flint were already clenched in their left and right hands, waiting for the attack of the Kou Tao Fishman. As people who often go in and out of the ocean, they also have a deep understanding of these common Kou Tao fishmen, and with the scimitars in their hands alone, they can easily chop through the seemingly solid fish-man scales, not to mention the more powerful muskets?

There were 18 capable sailors on the Devoe merchant ship, including 20 with First Mate Levi and Green. Despite their small numbers, each of them has sharp scimitars in their hands, and they are proficient in broadside combat and gang jumping, even better than the city defense team in the outer harbor of Grey Mist. Moreover, on the stern of the rear of the ship, the six sailors had also set up their flintlock pistols, aimed the muzzles of the black holes at the sea under the side of the ship on both sides, and gently put their fingers on the trigger, as if waiting for something with expressionless faces.

"First... Sir, what's going on, did we meet Kou Tao... Kou Tao Fish Man? ”

In the hatch leading to the lower deck, seven or eight passengers who had previously boarded on the Silver Coast, also carrying pickaxes or hammers in their hands, climbed up and gathered together, looking around with nervous expressions and wanting to defend together. However, although they are strong, they are not professionally trained warriors after all, and in the face of these Kou Tao fishmen who are known for their ferocity, their faces are already covered with cold sweat, and they just stay in the middle of the deck, and they don't dare to approach the side of the ship.

The Koutao Fishmen are humanoids, but they are not a sapient race. They are more wild than human, and many scholars still define the Kotao fish-people as social beasts, rather than a race with tribal civilization. This is also a reflection of their ferocious nature, and there are many rumors among the merchant ships that travel the seas that the Koutao fish-people tribe attacked the fishing village, slaughtering all the creatures inside, and even the corpses of the dead were made into food.

There was also a little desperation on the faces of the seven or eight travelers, and they could hear the quacking of the sea that belonged only to the Kou Tao fishmen. A large amount of cold sweat grew on their foreheads, but one by one they fixed their eyes on the bow of the ship, looking up at the sea in front of them, as if nothing had happened. An older traveler couldn't help but ask, "Sir, what is the situation... Good or bad? ”

PS: Thanks to "Noixa" for the 500 starting coins. No matter what, this book will still be written well, and the hasty ending of the last book is because of the birth of my son, and now that the family has settled down, I will write it seriously.
