On the eastern coast of Dahan, there is a natural harbor surrounded by mountains on three sides.

The area of the harbor is not large, and it can dock more than a dozen new-style naval warships, and the only waterway connecting to the outside is only a few tens of meters wide, which cannot even meet the needs of two warships to pass in parallel.

It is precisely because of the narrow entrance and exit waterway and the limited space in the port that it was not built as a harbor and has been idle until now.

At the beginning, Dai Jingwei sent in a total of five warships, and then led the army to leave, because of the lack of maintenance, the two ships continued to hit the stone wall under the action of the sea breeze, resulting in major problems in the hull structure, one of which had serious water seepage and was about to sink.

The other three ships were intact and the first Coast Guard officers to arrive had boarded the ship, inspecting the hull, replacing the damaged parts and replacing the worn sails and cables with brand new.

Ye Yunyang stood on the flat stone by the sea, and six flying wings were lined up behind him, three medium flying wings and three individual flying wings.

By his side, in addition to Liu Yuying, there are Dongfang Yixue, Zheng Zhiyuan and others, as well as the heroic Dai Jingwei.

Ever since the Emperor ordered the rebuilding of the navy, the weariness and anxiety on his face were swept away, and he became full of energy, and ordered his men to rush here to prepare for the sea.

Under the direct intervention of Emperor Liu Qi, the three warships were each equipped with one medium flying wing and one individual flying wing, Zheng Zhiyuan, a master of the Holy Dao Realm, was in charge of the flagship, Ye Yunyang, the king of Pingnan, was in charge of the command, and two Yao Sky Realm martial artists were arranged for each ship.

Dongfang Yixue and Qu Pingyuan are tasked with studying various kraken, statistics, and laying the groundwork for the next large-scale naval operation.

A few hours later, supplies began to be on board, and by the afternoon, the crew had boarded the ship and unmoored and set sail.

After the three large ships left the harbor, they marched towards the deep sea in a zigzag formation.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the sea, sparkling.

In the cabin of the flagship, there is a torch-shaped thing, which is called a naval weapon by Qu Pingyuan, and it is inlaid with more than a dozen beast cores of different sizes, which are said to be able to sense demon beasts more than ten miles away.

The distribution of beast cores lies in different directions and positions, and which piece lights up first indicates which direction the monster appeared from.

Ye Yunyang circled around the "torch" and asked a very sharp question: "If a group of krakens appeared at the same time, what would it be like?"

Qu Pingyuan thought for a while and said, "It should be a bright light together." ”

He immediately asked, "If it's a very fast and large kraken coming towards us at high speed, which beast core will light up first?"

"I guess it's also lit up together. Sweat was already on Qu Pingyuan's forehead, and it was clear that his masterpiece was stumped by these two questions.

Ye Yunyang shrugged: "Since it's useless, why is it so complicated?"

"You can't say that. Qu Pingyuan had his own reasoning, and said: "How can you know if it is useful if you don't try, even if its functionality is worse than expected, at least it can play a due early warning role, it is nothing more than a few more beast cores, there is no pity." ”

"Okay. As soon as Ye Yunyang's words fell, one of the beast cores lit up, and then several around him also flashed.

Qu Pingyuan slapped his hand happily: "It's useful!" The Kraken appeared from the north, judging by the intensity of the beast core's flash...... Its level is above the Bright Sky Realm, and its size should be more than ten meters long. ”

"How long can it be displayed?" Ye Yunyang glared, expressing disbelief.

Dongfang Yixue walked over and said: "This is based on the inference of the data generated by the beast nucleus on the land demon beast induction, in the next few months, after everyone's unremitting efforts, it is indeed possible to judge the level and size of the demon beast according to the different flashes." ”

It turned out to be based on science, no wonder Qu Pingyuan was so confident in his judgment.

Ye Yunyang boarded the bridge and ordered to the flag soldier on the mast: "Tell the boat on the left, let them pay close attention to their north, and attack immediately if they find something abnormal, no need to ask for instructions." ”

The Bannerman nodded, and began to give orders to the warship on the left.

Although all three ships were equipped with intercoms, Dai Jingwei insisted on conducting command, communication, and other work in accordance with the normal way of the navy when he was not in a combat state, so as to maintain the combat effectiveness of the navy's officers and men.

This proposal was supported by Ye Yunyang, although the communicator was easy to use, because of the high cost of construction, it could not be equipped with every crew member, and orders had to be transmitted in a normal way; besides, if the intercom failed, and the soldiers failed to master other means of communication, there would be a big problem.

The flash speed of the early warning device is getting faster and faster, Dongfang Yixue brought the intercom and said: "Yun Yang, according to experience, the speed of the Kraken is two hundred miles per hour, and it will reach our area within two minutes. ”

"Understood. Ye Yunyang gave the order: "All the crew members are ready to meet the enemy, the monster beast comes from the sea, the bed crossbow uses poisoned arrows, and the flying wings are ready to take off." ”

A minute later, six flying wings rose into the air at the same time, tasked with observing the situation in the surrounding three-mile sea.

Ye Yunyang stared at the sea in the north, and suddenly the warship on the left shook, followed by the captain's frightened voice: "The bottom of the ship has been hit by a huge force, and there is no report of damage to the cabin for the time being, it is not difficult to judge from the impact strength, the other party is a huge monster." ”

"Have you seen the Kraken?" Ye Yunyang asked.

"No!" replied the captain, "it is not showing its head, it must be heading towards the flagship, and King Pingnan should be more careful." ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, suddenly reached out and picked up a spear from the weapon rack next to him, ran quickly to the left side of the boat, threw the spear into the water with all his strength, and then stared at the changes in the water surface.

The spear is made of metal head and wooden pole, which is less dense than seawater, and if nothing else, it should come to the surface in a matter of seconds.

But ten seconds passed, and the spear did not float up.

Ye Yunyang frowned, at this time, the battleship on the right shook, the hull deviated seven or eight degrees to the right, the crew was caught off guard, and many people fell on the deck.

At this moment, a large fish with a black back and white belly appeared from the right side and jumped out of the water, and it was clearly visible that it had a spear on its back.

"It's a tiger shark!" Zheng Zhiyuan said in a deep voice: "The demonized tiger shark has become about three times larger, and its strength is close to the late stage of the Bright Sky Realm, it is very flexible in the water, and it is a great threat to our ship. ”

The ballista guns from the three boats were fired at the same time and flew into the area where the tiger shark was.

Ye Yunyang picked up the second spear and accidentally found a white spot on the back of the tiger shark, because it was at the end of the dorsal fin, it could not be seen if he didn't look carefully.

With his feet slamming on the deck, he leaped high and threw his spear when his body was in the air.

Sou!

The spear turned into a meteor and hit the dorsal fin of the tiger shark.

Burst!

A third of the spear pierced into the tiger shark, and the tiger shark's original jumping motion was noticeably sluggish, and then fell into the sea in a free-fall shape.

Ye Yunyang landed lightly on the deck, his eyes staring at the place where the tiger shark fell into the water.

After the tiger shark falls, it quickly disappears into the sea.

Zheng Zhiyuan frowned and whispered to himself: "Failed?"

Call!

The tiger shark jumped out of the water again and reached 30 meters above the surface of the water, in a vigorous posture.

The corners of Ye Yunyang's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "It's just a return to the light!"

Only then did everyone notice that the tiger shark's eyes were full of dead gray and lifeless, and it slapped heavily on the water, this time it did not sink, but turned its belly to the sky, and it was obvious that it was already dying.

Ye Yunyang smiled and said to Dongfang Yixue on the other end of the intercom: "Tiger shark, the strength is close to the late stage of the Yaoqi Realm, and the weakness is the white spot behind the dorsal fin. ”

Liu Yuying jumped and jumped happily: "Yun Yang is mighty, kill such a big kraken in one move, we want to celebrate tonight!"

Ye Yunyang walked over, knocked on her head, and said angrily: "What is there to celebrate, it's just killing a kraken, there are more than ten million demon beasts in the sea!"

"After all, it's the first one, shouldn't you celebrate?" said the little girl with an aggrieved face.

He shook his head: "We have to be more careful after dark, we must not underestimate the enemy or slack off, otherwise the ship is likely to be destroyed and people will die." ”

As he expected, after nightfall, various krakens appeared, such as a large jellyfish that can spew venom, a hairtail fish that is three meters long and can bite off a piece of a ship's side with sharp teeth, and octopus of different sizes and colors.

Fortunately, the level of these demon beasts is not high, and they were successfully destroyed by everyone.

The next morning, Ye Yunyang yawned and walked into the cabin, and first saw Qu Pingyuan with bloodshot eyes, and was startled: "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

Qu Pingyuan rubbed his eyes with dark circles, and said to his side: "I'm improving the early warning device, and after a night of hard work, it's finally done." ”

Ye Yunyang turned his head to look, the original "torch" was gone, only a wooden base remained, replaced by a four-foot square wooden plate, on which eight large beast cores represented the eight directions of the gossip, and the smaller beast cores represented more accurate scales.

He was stunned: "Compass?"

"That's right, I gave it a name, the Early Warning Compass. Qu Pingyuan said excitedly: "In addition to the eight main beast cores, there are also thirty-two auxiliary beast cores, as well as sixty-four miniature beast cores, which are connected by snow silver silk threads, which can be linked with each other, but they can work independently and are not affected by the surrounding beast cores." ”

Ye Yunyang circled around the compass, looked up and asked, "What is the effect?"

Qu Pingyuan explained: "The main beast core determines the direction of the demon beast's appearance, the auxiliary beast core determines the level and speed of the demon beast, and the miniature beast core determines the distance. It can not only find and lock on a monster, but also track it, the biggest advantage is that it can find several targets at the same time, determine the one with the greatest threat, and give priority to the target of attack or choose to avoid. ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, and said in his heart Your sister, isn't this the radar in the era where the master is, is it so advanced?

At this moment, one of the main beast cores on the compass lit up, and then several auxiliary beast cores also lit up, Qu Pingyuan came to the conclusion after some mental calculations: "The demon beast is from the southeast, the level is in the early stage of the Golden Body Realm, and the speed is one hundred and ten miles per trivial matter, and the size is it...... It's not too big, and the preliminary judgment is that it's a spotted octopus, or a swordfish. ”

"Is it true?" Ye Yunyang was suspicious.

Qu Pingyuan's eyes widened, and he pointed to the compass and said, "If it's not allowed, I'll eat it!"
