Chapter 6: Monster Attack
"Fengyue Mercenary Group? Is it the Fengyue Mercenary Group?"
"Hmm...... There shouldn't be any other mercenary groups in the north called the Wind Moon Mercenary Regiment, right?"
"Really...... Do you have any back doors to get in or something?"
Li Changfeng suddenly asked.
"Brother Li, do you want to enter? Didn't you say that it's good to be a loose cultivator?"
"Uh...... I don't care, but my family needs to be raised. If I can get in, I don't have to worry about the house. Don't talk about that, do you have a doorway?"
"Hmm...... Prime, this one, Captain. I, the deputy head of the regiment. β
After Yueli finished speaking, Li Changfeng was stunned.
"Really, the head and deputy head of the regiment went to that cannibalistic place, are you planning to disband the mercenary group?"
"How is that possible, besides, Brother Li, you mean that you think a few of us really can't survive over there. β
"Hmm...... I heard that the two leaders of the Fengyue Mercenary Regiment are quite young...... But the appearance of our immortal cultivators does not necessarily represent age...... Are you really that?"
"I can't lie to you. β
"Then you're not afraid that after you report your name directly, I will arrest you and go back to threaten you?"
"Cut, not to mention whether the people of the Adventurer's Guild can do this, let's just say that we ourselves have the means to save our lives, don't look at your cultivation is higher than us, you may not be able to get a bargain in our hands.
Moreover, if we were to investigate a little, no one would dare to touch us casually. We call it fearlessness. β
Yueli said this with a lot of confidence.
This is true, each of them now has three divine thought clones on their bodies, and now they have only used a total of two. Although the person in front of them was in the Imperial Spirit Period, they really didn't panic at all.
They have all seen the true gods many times, and a few Imperial Spirit Periods really can't scare them.
"In that case, then I won't say anything...... Since they are the two regiment leaders, it shouldn't be difficult to arrange for a few of our brothers to go in, right?"
"Brother Li, you just said that you have a good life in casual cultivation. β
"It's good to live a casual life, every day is arranged by yourself, there are no restrictions, and you are free all day long.
We can also cultivate, and we don't have to worry about food and clothing when we usually take on tasks. β
"Uh...... You don't lack anything, how can you have this idea?"
"Hey, life is free, but it's unstable. Doing anything depends on your mood, if you don't want to do it, you won't do it, and if you want to give up, you will give up. After a long time, it seems that those of us have lost our fighting spirit, and it feels like we need some push. β
After hearing this, Feng Yan said:
"Then Brother Li, you can form an organization and then restrain yourself. It's all acquaintances, and there's a sense of belonging. β
"Hey, it's because we're all acquaintances, and we're all of this kind of temperament, we can't control it ourselves, who has the heart to care about other people. β
After Li Changfeng finished speaking, they were all speechless. They simply didn't think that forming an organization would have such an outcome.
"So we thought of finding a force with no acquaintances to join us, so that we could be forced. Now in this world, if you don't force it, you will soon fall behind!
Then I searched, and I found out that you were a force that was particularly well treated but had entered the most difficult situation, and then I met you. β
"That's right...... Well...... Brother Li, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. You'll have to think about it, if you get on our thief ship, you might not have a chance to get off the ship.
Brother Li, if you want to push yourself, we will definitely be able to do it, but it will definitely not be short-term. Moreover, because there are no cultivators like you in the group, it is estimated that you will have to act as a high-level tool person for a long time after entering, but it is not as easy as you think. β
After Yueli finished speaking, Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment.
"Uh...... Didn't you think that our above-average cultivation might make control no longer in your hands?"
After Li Changfeng finished speaking, everyone laughed.
"First of all, the two of us really don't have any actual control, at most we have a larger voice, in the literal sense. β
"Then, we are really not afraid of this, you can get everyone in the group to go with you, that's also your ability. β
"Finally, Brother Li, it's not that I look down on you, even if the two of us give it up now, you probably won't be able to take it over. The day-to-day operation of the regiment, which I proposed as the one who proposed the plan, is now unclear in some places. β
After saying these words, Li Changfeng was completely stupid. At the same time, he also suddenly understood why the two leaders of the Fengyue Mercenary Regiment dared to break into the Chaos Territory, because they didn't have to worry about the affairs of the regiment at all.
The Fengyue Mercenary Regiment is a mercenary regiment that can still operate as usual without two regiment commanders.
At the same time, Li Changfeng also thought about it, thought about what might happen in the future, and considered a series of problems caused by his own joining.
In the end, Li Changfeng gave an affirmative answer.
"I figured it out, it's okay, and I don't have anything to lose. Moreover, you told me in advance, and I can still see your sincerity. β
"That's right...... Then Brother Li is welcome to go to our side for an interview, we have open enrollment channels all year round, Brother Li, as long as you go, someone will definitely receive you. β
"Well, got it...... Wait, isn't that the normal process?"
"Otherwise, as the head and deputy head of the regiment, we naturally have to think about the mercenary group. The addition of new members is such an important thing, so naturally it cannot be casual.
As for the back door...... We recruit people on the basis of the principle of preferring shortage to abundance, and it is impossible to have a back door or something.
And, to be honest, our test of joining the group is not difficult, and there are more people who can pass, but unfortunately most of them are not good enough, or have other problems, which has caused us to have such a situation that it is difficult to recruit people.
Therefore, as long as Brother Li is a normal person, there is no big problem in itself, and it is very simple to pass the test. β
After Feng Yan said this, Li Changfeng was stunned for a moment.
"Is it really easy? You didn't lie to me, did you?"
"What are we lying to you about, don't say anything else, then a few of us can pass the test. Brother Li, when you tested, you just raised the requirements to your level.
The difficulty may be a little bit, but it is not much higher, just an ordinary ability test. As long as you play well, there will be no problems.
Moreover, as long as it is not the person who was blacklisted by us, it is possible to try it multiple times. If you can't get in once, you can think about the next time. If you want to enter, you can still get in if you work hard. β
"Isn't there room for negotiation?"
"Nope. β
After Li Changfeng asked, Fengyue and the two replied in unison.
"Huh...... At this beginning, I had to force myself to do something. It seems that I was the right decision. β
Li Changfeng smiled, and that smile seemed to be self-deprecating.
After that, everyone chatted a few more words.
Although the speed of the sea voyage was slow, ten days had passed by now, and the ship they were on had officially left the Extremely Cold Ice Sea and entered the northwest sea of the Sea of Silence.
After entering here, the crew members who were still talking and laughing on the ship were obviously much more nervous. Although they were still chatting, most of the time they were observing their surroundings.
At this time, the time interval between the crew on duty at the lookout to change the direction of observation was much smaller, and Li Changfeng and the others obviously entered a state of alert.
In short, there was a faint sense of depression in the whole ship at this time.
"Brother Li, is it dangerous around here?"
"Danger is not to be talked about, after all, the danger at sea depends mainly on the attacker. However, this is the junction of the sea, and there are many signs of the movement of sea beasts, and there are also the existence of ships that are easy to take as prey, so you have to be vigilant. Otherwise, it will be sneak attacked, but it will be too late. β
"I see. β
The boat continued to move, and everyone was nervously on guard. Soon the ship had gone a long way, but nothing happened.
Not long after the ship was moving again, all the crew suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Whewβokay, after this area, if there are no accidents, you can be more stable for the time being. β
Li Changfeng said this, but God likes to joke with people. Shortly after the ship had traveled, some anomalies were spotted at the lookout.
"About 500 meters ahead, I found that the sea water was in abnormal condition, and it was suspected that sea beasts were infested. β
"Turn the rudder. β
Hearing this, the captain gave such an order. His meaning was obvious, that is, to avoid the sea beast before it came close.
The ship soon began to turn, preparing to pass it by. But before they started to go around, everyone heard Li Changfeng's voice.
"Steady the ship and prepare for battle!"
After Li Changfeng finished speaking, the monks immediately dispersed to different parts of the ship. Seeing this, they also found some corners that they could use to defend.
Li Changfeng didn't say anything about their actions, and it seemed that they didn't disturb their thoughts.
Although they made such a move, they didn't really know what was happening. I just feel that I need to believe in Li Changfeng at this time and prepare in advance.
Then they saw what was really going on.
On the left front, waves suddenly appeared, crashing violently against the boat. Fortunately, the sailors were skilled, and although the boat was indeed jolting, it was still shaking enough to make people stand.
Then, on the surface of the sea over there, a huge tentacle suddenly burst out into the sky, and then slapped heavily on the sea, causing waves again.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked. How can this be such a thing, don't they usually live in the deep sea? How can they run to the surface of the sea?
Then, they found a problem. The tentacles didn't seem to flapping at random, but looking for something. Soon, everyone found the target of the tentacle, which was a sea monster that exuded demonic energy.
And it's heading for the ship.
If it were to be allowed to come, what damage it could do was enough for them to drink a pot.
So, Li Changfeng and the others immediately made a decision and started the blocking war. Not to mention killing the sea monster, at least not to let it get close to the ship.
The battle soon began, first of all, a layer of spiritual power passports appeared on the ship, isolating the sea water. This is to protect ordinary crews, and only if they are stable, nothing will go wrong with the ship.
Then, the monks took their positions and began long-range sniping.
Because they are all monks from the north, their spiritual power is all water spiritual power. And if you want to use water spiritual power to cause enough damage to the sea beast, then you can only gather water into ice.
As a result, countless ice arrows were launched from all corners of the ship, chasing the sea monster like homing missiles. However, the sea monster moved too quickly, and everyone's attacks had no effect, just formed some ice around it.
Yueli observed it and found that although they didn't hit, they weren't doing useless work. Now, there was a whole circle of ice around the sea monster. And she wouldn't believe that the ice was only one layer above the surface of the sea.
So, she discussed it with Wang Ling, and then the two began to make trouble.
A large spirit rune formed in their hands, and as soon as they stretched out their hands in the distance, the spirit rune flew above the sea demon beast and continued to expand.
Seeing this scene, Li Changfeng and the others immediately stopped first. They knew that this was the spirit master's method, and if they rashly attacked now, it might affect the performance of the spirit runes.
But they didn't say that they would stop there, it was just that the attack was not so violent, as long as it could still attract the attention of the Sea Demon Beast.
And at this time, a terrifying thing happened, and the tentacle reached out to this side. If this is filmed all at once, they will lose all their efforts.
But to their surprise, the tentacle suddenly retracted when it reached this side, and then retreated into the sea. But that's not all, it's even more terrifying, because the big octopus is all close to the boat, and a huge black shadow can be seen from the sea.
Then, the shadow didn't move, just stayed there motionless.
I didn't know what was going on, but it was a relief. This behavior at least shows that the big octopus does not regard them as enemies.
"Thousands of miles frozen!"
At this time, with the words of Wang Ling and Yueli, the large spirit rune flashed rapidly. Then, a burst of blue light shone on the sea below, and a large amount of ice appeared on the surface of the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the range of movement of the sea monster was constantly shrinking.
The cultivation of that sea monster is not low, and the speed of destroying the ice is also quite fast. But this spirit rune is not simple, and the speed of freezing is far beyond the speed of destruction of the sea demonic beast.
And when the two parties were at a stalemate, the huge black shadow suddenly made a sound. Then, the water near the ice suddenly tumbled and became more and more violent.
Then, suddenly, the sea swelled upwards at a very fast speed, and a huge column of water rose into the sky, rushing up with the ice.
At this time, everyone saw the appearance of the ice, which was completely frozen underneath. In other words, the sea monster had no chance to escape at all.
Then, the familiar tentacles suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, reaching out towards the ice. To be exact, it was reaching out to the sea monster.
When you fly into the sky, there must be a time to land. And during the landing, the sea monster had no ability to control its position change, and could only be obediently restrained by the tentacles.
Then, the tentacle disappeared into the sea again, and the black shadow disappeared, and the sea returned to calm.
