Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Fish Tide
"Fish tide?"
The crowd asked, puzzled.
"According to the information coming back from the forward outpost, there is a group of mutated fish tides just ahead of us, and this fish tide is showing strong aggression."
Berkeley crossed his arms, and everyone stared intently at the projection of the whole system.
These are all ordinary fish, and in general, these fish in the water world are "mild" and are the main source of food for humans.
But now the fish are on the move, the fish are very dense, and the so-called ants can bite and kill elephants.
It is said that such a dense tide of fish attracts the predation of some mutated creatures.
"Can you avoid them?"
Chen Qiang asked.
"No, they're moving in the same direction as us."
Berkeley frowned.
"Then let's change course or avoid them."
Goss spoke.
"No, as long as the direction of the fish tide doesn't change, we'll still meet them."
After speaking, Berkeley projected the swimming route of the brain to predict the fish tide.
"It seems that there is only a moratorium on migration."
Chen Qiang frowned.
"No, this is not the solution to the problem, according to 91% of the speculation of the brain, the fish tide is about the same as my destination, and if we moor here alone, the danger index will increase."
Looking at the dense fish tide that doesn't work like this, it doesn't work, it's really a headache, but fortunately, it's an ordinary fish tide, as long as you don't provoke them, there will be no danger.
As soon as Chen Qiang wanted to speak, Lynch spoke first: "Then how about we open the distance, increase the forward sentinel ship, and move forward slowly." ”
"That's the only way, it's a matter of great importance to make a decision."
Berkeley couldn't be sure, there really wasn't a better way to do it.
In the end, it was unanimously approved.
"Okay, then let's discuss the matter of defense, and the fish tide will open 150,000 li, and build a group of early warning ships with 5,000 li each, and I, as the city lord, will take the lead in forming the first line of defense at 10,000 li.
Secondly, 4 families will form a defensive line every 2,000 miles, our newly joined giant scorpion mercenary group will serve as an additional force and the last line of defense, and the rest are all ready to be on standby in the frozen city.
The Poor Boat is at the rear, and as soon as the situation changes, we will buy time for everyone to evacuate the danger zone as quickly as possible. ”
Everyone thought for a long time and agreed to Berkeley's layout.
Berkeley's layout is also very particular, and the reason why Chen Qiang was not placed in the battle sequence was that Chen Qiang was afraid that Chen Qiang would see that the situation was not good, and he would preserve his strength and leave the battlefield.
The roots of the five major families are all in the Frozen City, and if they encounter danger, they will definitely resist desperately, as long as the Frozen City is in the five of them.
However, Chen Qiang and they can't guarantee what happens, so this arrangement retains Chen Qiang's face, and it can be observed whether Chen Qiang will go all out to defend the frozen city at that time.
After the meeting ended, the old rules and 6 families discussed for a while before leaving.
After watching Chen Qiang leave, everyone quietly held a meeting.
"Lao Bei, seriously, among the few of us, I will obey you, the enemy is currently in the water world, who is not mainly to protect his own strength, you actually act as the first line, there is no other vote for the next session, I will definitely vote for you."
Goss patted Berkeley on the shoulder, admiring.
"Do you think Chen Qiang will really join us?"
Lynch looked worried.
"If you're afraid of what you're afraid of, you'll know when the time comes, anyway, Lao Bei has already arranged it."
Brian said nonchalantly.
The four looked at Brian fiercely.
"Phew! Look at my crow's beak. ”
Brian seemed to mean that he had said something wrong.
Although thousands of years have passed, there are still superstitious thoughts.
When he returned to his residence, Chen Qiang also held a meeting and let everyone read the content of the meeting.
"Xiaoqiang, they don't worry about you, but it's okay this way, our flexibility is even stronger."
Dan saw through Berkeley's Yang and explained it to everyone.
"It's no wonder, after all, Xiaoqiang, you are new to joining, it is normal for people to be uneasy, I think the city lord's approach is very good, they really want you to join."
Wang Jie expounded her views.
"Ivan, you have the most combat experience here, do you think our fleet is the most suitable?"
Chen Qiang turned his head and asked.
"Master, I think our fleet is surrounded by Dan's fortress as the core, surrounded by frigates and warships, forming an impregnable plum blossom array, as for the master's Night God, I don't know the specific parameters, it's not easy to arrange."
"Then do as you do, and start training now.
My Night, you don't have to worry about joining, and I'll join when it's time to join.
Is there anything else to add about the defense of the city? ”
"Xiaoqiang, I have collected some videos of sea creatures attacking the sky city here, you can refer to them."
Dan sends the message to the terminal.
"Very good, then let's watch the video first, and everyone should be prepared."
In the projection of the whole system, a city similar to a frozen city is surrounded by a tide of fish, of course, these so-called fish are not ordinary fish, many of them are composed of mutations of land creatures, and some of the limbs are not completely degraded.
Dense schools of fish are constantly flocking to the city walls, and in addition, there are xenos, the so-called xenos are the leader creatures, they have some kind of special genetic mutation with simple intelligence, like the first wolf in the pack, they will control the fish to carry out organized attacks.
And these intelligent beings are also hierarchical.
They organized groups without intelligence to launch attacks in multiple cities that were not afraid of life and death.
Because they have not degenerated into marine life at all, they also have an instinctive attachment to land.
Similar to the scene of an ornamental fish grabbing food, the picture is magnified by 10 million times, and the fish still has the ability to attack.
After watching the video, everyone has a general understanding of the attack of the fish tide in the end of the world.
"This battle is with Ivan as the general responsibility, Dan as the deputy, Wang Jie led the law enforcement team to supervise the battle, if there is really danger, give me the strength to feed, if anyone wants to escape, the law enforcement team will be shot directly."
Chen Qiang said in a commanding tone.
"It's the master, the head of the regiment."
The room was filled with slaughter.
Everyone knows that once you run away in wartime, the whole world will spurn, after all, this is a fight for the survival of mankind.
In this regard, all the big forces must show an attitude of leading by example, spurning is the lightest of them, and the most serious is that the people under your command will leave you and eventually become alone.
The drills were constantly being drilled, and all kinds of possible things were being practiced under the command of the city lord.
Even Chen Qiang is often caught in the strong, and he simply stops studying science and technology, and he is often interrupted and has no inspiration.
Chen Qiang also quietly piloted the giant scorpion to investigate the fish, and found that the fish were not a single fish, and there were many spitting fish that would spit acid when they encountered danger, which was extremely dangerous for units such as city walls and warships.
After five days of exercise, all the troops have completed the run-in, and the fish have no intention of changing their direction, and there is still half a month away from the destination.
As long as they can reach their destination smoothly, the fish will only disperse, and everyone will not have to worry about the food at all, so the major forces are both happy and worried.
In the early morning of this day, everyone routinely boasted about beating horses at their respective posts, and spent a month smoothly, seeing that they were about to reach their destination in 7-8 days, and their vigilance was not as rigorous as it was originally.
In the forward observation post: "Job looked at the fish on the other side, our destination this time is very rich in food!" ”
Gray used the amplifier in his helmet to look at the school of fish at 10,000 meters and said to his comrades.
"Yes! I'm going to open a fishing ground. ”
"Really? Then count me in. ”
"What captain, are you going to open a fishing ground? Take me with you, too! ”
"Don't forget us, Captain."
The team members signed up for the event.
"Don't worry! Yours are indispensable. ”
As the captain, Job smiled and agreed to everyone's participation.
Suddenly, a mutated wyvern appeared above the fish, and the so-called mutant wyvern was cloned by humans from ancient pterosaurs and kept them in a zoo for people to visit.
It's like Jurassic Park in the movie.
Originally, humans gave them a genetic lock and couldn't give birth, and even if they gave birth, they couldn't live and would die directly in the eggshell, because of the war, these cloned dinosaurs also mutated, breaking through the gene lock and reproducing on a large scale.
The most representative is the mutated Godzilla is the body of the Tyrannosaurus rex and the overlord pterosaur in the sky, the dinosaur was originally a tropical animal, and the mutated dinosaur adapted to the environment of the water world and became one of the biggest threats to mankind.
Fortunately, the land is gone, otherwise it would have been a terrible war between the once overlord of the earth and humanity.
"You see it's a mutated wyvern, I didn't expect to meet a wyvern here, this is not a good sign, we must notify the base."
Gray shouted out what he saw.
Everyone immediately investigated, and after confirming the news, Jobs quickly reported to the command center.
"What found mutant wyverns, and how many of them?"
The control center immediately came alive.
The control center immediately classified the level as IV (average).
At the same time, various unmanned probes flew out of the hives in the frozen city.
"There are about 20 of them."
"Okay, pay attention, our department has released a detector and will increase the intensity of exploration, please protect your own safety."
Originally, everyone was talking and laughing, but it was like a slow journey, and suddenly the bracelet and the monitors and projectors in the city appeared in blue font IV. level.
Everyone was nervous, though not of a high rank.
"What's going on, what's going on?"
When Berkeley received the message, he immediately asked the control center.
"Lord of the City, the forward observation post has found that there are about 20 mutant wyverns hunting above the fish tide."
"Okay, I know, always be careful."
An ominous premonition appeared in Berkeley's mind.
"Tell everyone to be vigilant, and let the leaders pay attention to patrol their respective defense lines just in case."
With the news from the forward sentinel ship, the mutant wyvern wanted to fly northwest after preying on its prey.
By the time the unmanned probe arrived, the mutant wyvern was nowhere to be seen.
Be vigilant just in case everyone doesn't sleep that night.
The mutant wyverns in the water world belong to social creatures, and there is no way to verify the number at all, and there are also groups of mutant wyverns attacking human strongholds in history, and the big ones are barely defended, and the small ones are destroyed immediately.
At noon the next day, there was still no trace of the mutant wyvern, and everyone thought it was just a small group of mutant wyverns, but their vigilance did not diminish in the slightest.
"There's no need to be so nervous! You see you didn't rest yesterday, go get some sleep! Here are a few of our brothers watching! ”
Gray preached to a bloodshot Job.
"Hey! I'm not at ease! You must know that there are family children behind you! ”
Job frowned with a worried expression.
"Head you go and squint for a while, we're watching! The brothers are all in good spirits, and you are the worst. ”
