Chapter 44: The Raging Sea
The sea, a familiar but strangest place for human beings. In this post-apocalyptic land, cities, forests, deserts, and all the areas that can be walked have become the territory of beasts, but the endless ocean has become a stable paradise.
On the fifth day of the whaling ship's voyage, the sea was still clear and calm, and everything was as comfortable as an ocean trip.
Chen Lingfeng was lying on the edge of the deck, accompanied by the turbulence of the waves, pouring the food he had just eaten in the morning into the sea. Five days had apparently not been enough for him, a man who had never been to sea, to get used to the dizziness of seasickness.
The rock walked by like a flat ground, and the jolting of the hull was a pleasure for him, an old sailor. He patted Chen Lingfeng on the shoulder and motioned for him to rest in the cabin.
At the bow of the boat, Razor and Demolition are fighting for victory in the fishing competition, and the two stand on the side of the boat like fools shouting, and sometimes the romance of men is really confusing.
Blade quietly leaned against Nighthawk One, docked on the deck, holding a book with a vague name. Like his character, he is quiet and likes to stay in quiet corners.
Nighthawk carefully checked the various index values of the fighter under the arrangement of Foxfire, and he had always treated Nighthawk One as considerate as his wife.
The most pleasant thing is the fox fire, which is sunbathing on the blanket laid on the top of the cab.
"Xiaoyu, help me apply sunscreen." Foxfire took the initiative to unbuckle the back of the bikini, revealing a smooth and sexy back.
"Daydream about yourself, paint yourself. Also, we didn't come out to travel, and you're also the vice-captain, so can't you be steady? Ning Yu frowned and slapped the sunscreen handed over by Fox Fire to the ground.
"Don't keep your face strained, don't dress so tightly when it's time to relax. Or are you not confident that you can outperform me in terms of size. Foxfire re-fastened the buckle and deliberately stood up and twisted his body in front of Ning Yu.
"I'm not as casual as you, what's so good about growing up that big." Ning Yu turned his head to the side, and the second half of the sentence was whispered only to himself.
"Do you think I didn't hear that? You're envious. Fox Huo deliberately pressed his body against Ning Yu and rubbed against him.
"Go away!" Ning Yu tried her best to resist, but the fox hugged her so hard that she couldn't break free.
As he spoke, he heard Blaster excitedly shouting, "I caught it!" I caught it! ”
"I don't even have to look at it, it must have been a small fish that hit your hook blindly." Razor said mockingly.
"It's not a small fish, it must be a big guy, come and help me!" Blast held the fishing rod in both hands, and leaned back desperately, but he still couldn't resist the force of the hook object in the sea, and was being pulled towards the side of the boat step by step.
"It's really fake, how can it be so exaggerated." Razor threw down the rod and ran over to assist in the blasting, and as soon as he grasped the blasting rod with both hands, the huge force almost carried him directly into the sea.
"What... Something, so heavy? "The razor felt like it had used all its strength, but the line still didn't mean to be recycled.
Just as the two of them were in a stalemate with the creatures in the sea, there was a sudden thunder in the sky, and the sea that had been clear just now was pouring torrential rain in an instant, the wind was howling, and the waves seemed to overturn the whaling ship.
Sensing the change in weather, Rock hurried from the wheelhouse to the bow of the ship.
"Big man, you're here just in time, come and help reel in the rod, I don't know what this guy has caught in the blast, it's so heavy." Razor said to the rock running over as he held the rod desperately.
"Let go, throw the rod away!" Before the Rock Man arrived, he shouted loudly at the blast and razor.
"What?" The two of them were stunned for a moment, and the fishing rod in their hands "swished" and went into the sea.
"What are you doing, big man, all the fish are ......" Rock didn't wait for the razor to finish, and grabbed a man in one hand to drag the blaster and razor away from the bow of the ship.
In the midst of the storm, a huge column of water broke through the sea, and the sea water that enveloped the water column fell, exposing the huge bowl-shaped suction cup to the air, which was a huge unimaginable squid tentacle.
The tentacles paused in the air for half a second before slamming directly into the deck, and the three of them hurriedly rolled to the side, dodging the tentacles' slaps.
The solid deck of the whaling ship immediately cracked under the slapping of tentacles.
"What's going on?" Ning Yu and Foxfire rushed over from the top of the cab, and Blade and Nighthawk also came running from the fighter.
"We've disturbed the giants of the sea." Rock stared at the giant tentacles that slowly slid down the hull, and his tone was filled with awe.
"What's that?" Foxfire asked as he zipped up his freshly changed clothes and looked at the rock.
"In the eyes of us navigators, the ocean has always been an awe-inspiring sacred place, with so many unknown creatures that we don't know about living in this bottomless blue world." Rock paused and continued, "That was the tentacle of a giant squid just now, this thing usually lives in the deep sea, maybe the arrival of the beast herd has also caused it to change." ”
The rock prepares everyone that the giant squid is only diving into the sea temporarily and will attack again soon.
As he spoke, more tentacles rushed out of the sea with the churning waves, and this time the tentacles did not smash into the deck, but wrapped around the guardrails on the side of the ship from all sides, ready to drag the whaling ship to the bottom of the sea.
A huge force was suddenly exerted on the hull, the entire bow was pressed down, and the hull immediately began to tilt.
"I don't want to dance in the ocean with this kind of thing." The fox fire took the short knife, and the burning flame qi vaporized all the rainstorm that fell.
The fox fire had rushed towards the nearest tentacle at great speed, and the short knife slashed towards the tentacle wrapped around the guardrail with explosive flames.
Just as the blade was about to hit the tentacle, the tentacle seemed to have eyes, and at the last moment, it let go of the guardrail and dodged the attack of the fox fire.
The fox fire was also surprised when it struck the air, and before she could come to her senses, the tentacles hovered in mid-air, and then immediately launched an attack on her.
The tentacles slashed horizontally towards the fox fire, the sound of breaking the wind cut the surface painfully, the fox fire tried its best to twist its body and at the same time used the strength of the blade to block the attack of the tentacles, Rao is so, and it is still inevitable to be slapped out by the tentacles. Fortunately, she was able to adapt to emergencies and was not substantially harmed.
After a short turn, Kitsune understands that the giant beast under the surface of the sea is not easy to deal with, and at the same time, she also has a plan, in order to completely defeat the giant squid, she must lure its body out of the sea.
Foxfire retreated to the middle of the group, and everyone briefly discussed and attacked from multiple directions, so that the giant squid had no time to react, and always hurt one of its tentacles.
A new battle plan was drawn up, and everyone immediately split up and attacked the tentacles clinging to the guardrails.
This attack worked, the giant squid could not cope with the attacks from all directions at the same time, and one of the tentacles on the right side of the ship was cut down by the rain in an instant.
The giant squid was in pain and immediately retracted all its tentacles into the sea. The whaling ship lost pressure and regained its balance.
After a while, a large wave suddenly rose from the bow of the ship, and a huge squid's head loomed below the sea level, and its huge ball-like dark black eyes stared at the humans on the whaling ship without brilliance.
"Hmph, I'm waiting for your chance to jump out of the sea." Foxfire stood on the side of the ship and looked directly into the squid's eyes. The moment the waves rolled over and blocked the view, the fox fire leapt from the whaling ship, and the flaming dagger crashed into the giant eye of the squid's death.
The blade of the "poof" knife sank into the squid's eyeballs, a pool of blood spurted out, and the squid received a fatal blow, and the huge pain made it desperately twist its tentacles and slap, but the indiscriminate attack that lost its vision did not pose the slightest threat to the fox fire.
With the slapping of his tentacles, the fox fire stepped dexterously, and soon returned to the ship.
The squid stared at the remaining eye and slowly sank to the surface.
Suddenly, the wind and rain stopped, and the sea returned to calm. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they all rejoiced that they had escaped from the hunt of this deep-sea giant. Only Rock stood still, his brow furrowed, as if thinking about something tricky.
"Be careful, everyone, that guy didn't leave, it's down to us!" In the middle of the night, Panshi's eyes widened and he shouted loudly.
At this time, the bottom of the whaling ship was suddenly impacted, and the huge force from under the sea level directly lifted the hull from the sea, and everyone had no time to stand firm, and fell into the sea one after another.
