Chapter 36: Focus on Huaizhou Harbor - Kraken Kraken (1)
After hearing what the guard at the door said, Du Tao's body softened suddenly. He knew that even if he really killed Feng Wu now, it would be useless, not to mention, whether he could kill it was another matter~!
"A few of you came just in time! a few of you stayed to protect the lord!" Looking at Du Tao who was paralyzed on the ground, Feng Wu sighed and ordered at the defenders at the door! "Yes!" Although these people were very reluctant to protect this selfish lord Du Tao.
Although they really wanted to go to the battlefield like the other brothers, but now that Feng Wu had given them the task, they had to go all out to complete this task!
Of course, in addition to this group of heavily armed defenders, there were also major mercenary groups that came from all over the mainland! "Brothers, this kraken has appeared, and this situation is a good opportunity for our mad monkey mercenary group to make a name for itself!"
Just as Jiang Tian was rushing to the port, a man was shouting at the dozen or so people he was leading behind him with his duck-like voice! Jiang Tian's eyes followed the place where the sound came from, and he saw that the person who shouted was a burly man with a bare shoulder! There was not even a single hair on his shiny head, and there was a slender scar on his left eye!
This scar shook up and down as the big man's facial muscles trembled! From a distance, it looked like a huge centipede was lying on the big man's face!
"Heh! This kraken's influence seems to be quite big! There are so many people here!" Jiang Tian was about to go to ask the bald man all the details about the kraken, but the voice of a man speaking sounded in the darkness behind him. Behind him, there was a neat row of steps.
"Hey, who is the labor-management officer, it turns out that the dragon brother! What, your Tyrannosaurus Rex mercenary group is also going to intervene?" The bald man seemed to be very familiar with the person who spoke, and turned his head to look at the person with a chuckle!
"Hahaha, Feng Monkey, let's not talk about the eldest brother and the second brother! It's all a vote, what's the point of saying this?" With Feng Monkey's words, the man known as the Wild Dragon also slowly walked out of the darkness!
I saw that this person was about thirty years old, dressed in a cyan hardsuit, and his tall body looked so powerful at this moment. On top of an angular face, there are two eyes as fierce as eagle eyes, and the essence of light bursting out of these eyes gives people a feeling of unbearable staring!
The ring of beard planted on his face brought out a wild meaning to this person! What Jiang Tian didn't expect the most was that the group of people who were following this person didn't know where this wild dragon came from!
They were all such angular, tall and burly people! Not only that, but each of them had a dense black forest on their faces! Thinking of their first group name, Jiang Tian couldn't help but scold, "I think you just call the Blackbeard Mercenary Group! And the Tyrannosaurus Rex! Bully a chicken!"
"Hmph! Don't talk nonsense! This kraken is there, and it's up to each one to decide how much soup they can get!" Feng Monkey said, pointing to the "pillar" that rushed out of the sea.
"Don't worry, now this kraken has just revealed half of its body, and its body is still in the sea and has not been revealed!" After listening to Feng Monkey's words, the wild dragon waved his hand, and from the confident look on his face, it seemed that he knew something that others didn't know!
Feng Monkey couldn't help but hesitate for a while, he had only heard about this kraken, as for what this kraken was, he really didn't know! At that time, their mad monkey mercenary group happened to be conducting a C-level hunting mission in the Sunset Mountain Range.
When I returned to the city afterwards to deliver the mission items, I overheard a little mercenary in the mission hall talking about this kraken! Originally, this Feng monkey just listened to it as a gonzo.
After all, there was such a thing as a kraken, and he had never heard of it in the past few years, let alone seen it!
I saw a man covered in black robes rushing to the mercenary mission hall for help! According to the man in black robes, he was a merchant who traveled between countries!
This time, they originally planned to go to the Ice and Snow Country on the other side of the continent through the Azure Strait, and the Wind and Snow Kingdom went to buy some local rich magic energy crystals!
Just when their merchant ships were less than 50 nautical miles out of Huaizhou Harbor, they were attacked by the so-called Kraken!
In the mercenary mission hall, the mercenaries gathered in the hall were all attracted by the merchant's words. "Hey, this friend, what exactly is the Kraken you just talked about? Can you tell us in detail?"
"Here's the thing...", seeing that more and more people were gathered around him, the merchant began to slowly tell what had happened to him.
Since the day they sailed that day was also at night, when they sailed out of the port of Huaizhou about fifty nautical miles, one of the crew members in charge of watching from the mast exclaimed!
"What's that? I've never seen a monster like this before!" When the crew member exclaimed, the captain, ahem, was the merchant in front of everyone. Raise the monocular magic telescope in your hand and look at the sea in the distance!
"What did you see, and what did the Kraken look like?" Seeing that the merchant was silent when he said this, the mercenaries hurriedly urged!
"When I looked in the direction of the crew through the magic telescope... I saw in the moonlight... See.... I saw that there were several lines on the sea not far away...
Huge shadows were swimming fast on the water! It was night, and the lighting conditions were not very good! I took it for granted that these shadows were the blue-necked snake fish... According to the rules of the older generation, we have also taken out some flesh with blood from the warehouse, hoping that these offshore elves will be able to leave after filling their stomachs...
But... The rules that have been passed down from generation to generation seem to have become our talismans! Just as we cast the flesh that was waiting for blood into the sea! The huge black shadows that swam on the surface of the water fell violently, you heard it right! It just fell! It fell straight into the deep sea."
The merchant paused again as he said this, and kept looking around! At this moment, a discerning man immediately saw the name of the merchant in his actions! He hurriedly turned around and handed over a glass of ale on his table.
"Tons and tons!"
After taking the ale handed over by the unknown mercenary, the merchant tore off the black robe that covered his body! What appeared in front of everyone was a young man covered with wounds of all sizes, and his clothes were even more tattered, and this man's hair was strangely snow-white!
He didn't care about the countless expectant eyes around him, so he just tilted his neck and drank a full glass of ale!
After gasping for breath, the man continued, "Just when we thought we were safe, that guy... Again! Only, this time, it appeared less than 100 meters away from our merchant ships!
This also made us see its true face for the first time! What kind of blue-necked snake fish were those huge black shadows swimming on the surface of the sea before!
Because of the proximity! And it happened to be under the direct rays of the searchlight on the bow of our ship, we could see very clearly! The tentacles that were constantly wriggling under the water, like a giant python, were more than 30 meters long, and the number was even more numerous! The thickest part of the tentacles was even 10 meters long, the most... The most incredible thing is that the surface of these tentacles is even attached to the round object like a plate...
As for the other parts, because this sudden monster is hidden too deeply, coupled with the random swing of tentacles! I don't know.." Recalling what he saw at the time, the merchant still shivered a little.
"Oh my God! The tentacles alone are thirty meters long, and the other bodies hidden in the sea..."
"Knowing that we are not good, we have taken up our own weapons, and since we are ordinary people, we don't know any accompanying magic and martial arts. We can only hold the harpoon that is shining in the moonlight, and wait...
Can... But we harpoon-wielding men were like clowns jumping off the beam in front of the monsters! Just as we were waiting for us, the tentacles under the sea shrank violently!
When we saw this, our pupils dilated in an instant! Its action was ready to start, just like a snake on land! We wanted to run, but above this vast sea! We! Where can we run!
Subsequently... After a loud "bang!" sound, our merchant ships... I was poked into the air by the merciless tentacles! It's the biggest we've ever seen in our lives... Pity... It's just a waning moon... When I looked out to sea again, I saw a huge black shadow!
In the middle of the shadows, there were several pairs of scarlet lanterns! I guess those scarlet lanterns must be the eyes of this monster... After that, we... I was dragged to the bottom of the sea by that monster... Because of my family, every time I go to sea, I always carry a water-repellent bead with me.
It is precisely because of this water-repellent bead... I am alive! I am able to make the existence of this monster public!Everyone!Please! I beg you to avenge my brothers who died and were in the mouth of the monster!!"
For example, since it is a merchant ship heading to the land of wind and snow! How can the crew members on board be composed of ordinary people? You must know that Xuanfeng is separated from the country of wind and snow by a blue sea area! Its waterway is far away, and there are countless sea beasts of innumerable strength along the way, if there are not some masters in charge, who would have the courage to cross the ocean?
Secondly, the so-called rules passed down from generation to generation are simply farting! Many of the rules of the older generation have been proven to be just nonsense of some fishermen! Moreover, they throw their bloody meat into the sea, even if they are not attacked by the kraken!
Their actions were exactly like a premeditated priestly activity! And the sacrifices were made by the ignorant crews! The purpose was to get the so-called Kraken to do something at the right time, in the right place!
The people who were in the mercenary mission hall at that time naturally thought of this! It's just that this person is desperate for profit! These mercenaries are even more so! Although they know that this is definitely not as simple as this white-haired man said!
You must know that in order to make this task better, this white-haired man has invested a whole 10 million purple gold coins in the mercenary union as a reward for completing the task!
Here is a brief explanation of the exchange ratio of the currency circulating on the Night Wind Continent, one purple gold coin is equal to one thousand gold coins! One gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins! One silver coin is equal to one hundred copper coins! That is to say, this ten million purple gold coins are equal to ......
