Chapter 603: Heavy losses
After the rainy season washed into the water, the sea returned to calm, but half a minute passed and she did not come up.
Ye Yunyang's heart hung in his throat, don't have a problem with Meiyu, otherwise, who will take us to the Misty Realm.
As the time passed, the whole fleet became nervous, and everyone looked at the place where the rainy season fell into the water.
After a few more seconds, a huge white bubble emerged, followed by a change of color on the surface of the surrounding sea, which was a giant whale with its belly facing up.
Is the whale dead?
If it's not dead, how can it be belly up?
But where did the rainy season go?
Just when everyone was worried, a bright figure jumped out of the sea, like a fairy running to the moon, and landed lightly on the flagship.
Meiyu was soaking wet, her clothes were tightly clinging to her body, and her delicate body was undoubtedly revealed.
Feeling that her eyes fell on her, two of them were from Ye Yunyang, and she was the most excessive, she turned around and returned to the cabin, and slammed the door shut.
Ye Yunyang retracted his gaze, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and muttered in a low voice: "The giant whale is not dead, you should give a sentence and leave." ”
There were bold soldiers who fired crossbow guns at the whale, but the whale did not respond, and they shouted excitedly: "The whale is dead!"
The cheers immediately rang out, and Ye Yunyang clenched his fists and said, "Yes!"
Dai Jingwei was confused: "What choked to death?"
Almost revealing his stuff, he said angrily: "It's drowning, not choking! I'm talking about the drowning soldiers, so don't you send a boat to rescue you!"
"Obey!" Dai Jingwei commanded the rescue.
Mei Yu, who had changed into a new dress, walked out of the cabin, she was still wearing a veil, and first gave Ye Yunyang a roll of her eyes.
Ye Yunyang was thick-skinned, but he didn't see anything, and said with a smile: "Miss Mei is really powerful, killing the giant whale with the power of one person, showing the powerful combat power of the Protoss, and being admired by the contemptible." ”
"Don't be a sycophant, send someone to take out the whale's core and hang it on the bow of the flagship. Mei Yu said.
"Why?" he asked.
"With the whale's core, the other Krakens don't dare to approach the fleet, they think there's a giant whale here," Miyu explained. ”
"Understood, I'll go get the beast core myself!" Ye Yunyang rushed away.
A minute later, he drove the boat away from the flagship, came to the whale carcass, and rolled over and went into the water.
After a period of busy work, he managed to pry open the skull of a giant whale and find an ostrich-sized beast core.
The beast core was filled with incomparably pure energy, and it was certain that these energies could help a Holy Dao Realm martial artist to advance to the next level.
At Meiyu's suggestion, he put the core in a metal mesh pocket and fastened it to the bow of the flagship.
Sure enough, the rest of the voyage went much smoother, and the AWACS spotted the Kraken several times, but none of them dared to approach the fleet.
After becoming bolder, Dai Jingwei ordered the fleet to rush directly through the group of krakens, and the krakens scattered and fled.
On the southern coast of the Shengtian Continent, a black carriage came from the north and stopped on the edge of the cliff.
The horse pulling the cart was very special, with a black body without a single stray hair, eyes like black jewels, and a mane on the neck like a fish's fin.
An octopus man sprang out of the sea, knelt down on one knee in front of the carriage after landing on both feet, and said, "Enlighten my emperor, the attack on the Han fleet has failed." ”
The low and hoarse voice of the Demon Emperor came from the car: "What's going on, why did it fail?"
The octopus man told the truth: "We successfully provoked a giant whale, and as soon as we sank the other party's three ships, Mei Yu took action and killed the giant whale, and the other monsters did not dare to approach the fleet." ”
"A group of waste, won't you send a few more giant whales?" The Demon Emperor said angrily: "Order all the demon beasts in the South China Sea to rush up when they encounter the Han fleet, whoever dares to flinch, this emperor will never spare it!"
"Your Majesty is angry, isn't it just a failure, it's not a big deal. A bewitching female voice rang out.
In the carriage, the scantily clad Meihe wrapped around the Demon Emperor like an octopus, pleasing each other with her body.
The Demon Emperor snorted: "Yes, we have a chance, they are still far from the Misty Realm! Even if they find the Misty Realm first, it is impossible to ascend to the Sealed Land in a short time. ”
Mei He kissed him on his bloodless ugly face and snorted, "Your Majesty is wise, it is absolutely impossible for them to make it to the Sealed Land alive." ”
The Demon Emperor had a smile on his face and instructed the octopus people outside: "Don't hurry up and make arrangements, and inform the Emperor of the news of killing them as soon as possible." ”
"Yes!" the octopus man turned and jumped back into the sea.
The Demon Emperor put his hand into Meihe's clothes, and Meihe twisted her body, making a humming sound from her mouth.
With the sound of wheezing, the carriage shook more and more.
......
Ye Yunyang was going crazy, in just one day, the fleet encountered forty-one attacks, each time at least seven or eight krakens acted together, and sometimes it reached more than thirty.
Despite the soldiers' efforts, seven ships sank on the spot, and two others were too badly damaged to repair and finally sank into the sea.
Together with the three ships that were sunk by the giant whale two days ago, there are twelve ships in total.
When the fleet set sail, it was forty-two ships, and now there are less than thirty left.
The biggest losses were not from the ships, but from the sailors, and when the shipwreck occurred, hundreds of people did not have time to evacuate and were buried at the bottom of the sea with the ship.
There was also a serious problem, the rescued crew members were assigned to other ships, and each ship was overcrowded.
"Miss Mei, there is a giant whale core hanging from the bow of the ship all the time, why do the krakens rush up desperately?" he asked understandingly.
Mei Yu shook her head: "It stands to reason that they should hide far away, just like at the beginning, why it became like this, I can't say." ”
"Alright!" he said he couldn't do anything.
Ying Qi landed on the back deck on the flying wing, she held a folder in her hand, and walked over and said, "Yun Yang, I have done statistics, except for the first three times, we took the initiative to rush into the kraken group, and the rest of the more than thirty times were all taken the initiative to fight. Besides, don't you think it's strange that they're the last to die every time, and never retreat halfway?"
"What do you mean?" he frowned.
"It means that the Kraken has a very clear target for attack, so it will go forward and follow. Ying Qi made a bold guess: "Could it be that someone is giving them orders to do this?" ”
Ye Yunyang and Mei Yu glanced at each other, and the two said in unison: "Demon Emperor!"
The orc leader Shi Zi is dead, and the demon king Meng Tu has long been killed, and the only one who can command the demon beasts and orcs is the demon emperor.
Mei Yu continued, "It seems that the Demon Emperor does not want us to find the Misty Realm. ”
Ye Yunyang smiled instead: "The more scared he is, the more it shows that our sailing route is not wrong! In this way, I will immediately give an order, don't fall in love with the Kraken in the future, and don't rest at night, sail south as fast as possible." ”
Meiyu nodded and said, "In this case, we can turn to the west in two days, and if nothing else, we can reach the Misty Realm in five days." ”
Ying Qi said with some worry: "Can the fleet last for seven days? Now our situation is overcrowded, all kinds of materials are consumed very quickly, and the food and accommodation of the soldiers have become a problem, because there are too many people, it is difficult to walk smoothly on the ship." ”
Ye Yunyang pondered for a moment, and decided to find a small island nearby, send the surplus people to the island, send Feiyi back to Dahan, mobilize the newly built warships to form a fleet, and come over to pick up these people.
This proposal was widely supported by the soldiers, and after some research, they decided to land on Chunyu Island.
The island is large enough, the main thing is that there is no shortage of food, the island is full of fruit trees, and you can also hunt for survival.
A day later, the fleet anchored on the north side of Junyu Island.
More than 2,000 crew members landed one after another, leaving them with enough supplies for life, and the fleet continued to sail.
Ye Yunyang kept looking back, and Ying Qi asked, "What's wrong, aren't you at ease?"
"It's kind of like it's not safe for them to stay here. He said in a deep voice.
Ying Qi smiled: "How could it be! After careful reconnaissance in advance, there are no traces of orcs on the island, and there are no demon beasts in the surrounding sea, and there are also five Yaoqi Realm masters left in charge, so safety is definitely not a problem." ”
"Maybe there's been so much going on lately that I'm a little bit suspicious. He shook his head and said, "I don't want to do this, there are more important things waiting for us to do, and we must be in good spirits." By the way, Qiqi, when we complete the task and return to the mainland, Aunt Luo Yue won't force us to get married again, right?"
Ying Qiqiao's face flushed: "You guy, just now you said that you want to cheer up your spirits, why do you say these indecent things in a blink of an eye!"
He smiled and said, "I'm also thinking about you, you and Yi Xue are both young, and they should have married a long time ago, and as for Ying Ying, she can wait for another two years." ”
Ying Qi snorted: "Don't worry, Emperor Han will not agree to our marriage first, he will definitely marry Ying Ying first and become the eldest wife of the Ye family." ”
He raised his eyebrows: "Then how can it work, is the princess of Dahan superior? The size ranking must be according to age, Yi Xue is the first, you are the second, she can only be the third." ”
Ying Qi's face turned even redder: "What kind of junior two, junior one, it's too ugly! If you joke again, when you go back, I will tell Yi Xue and Ying Ying word for word, and see how we clean you up." ”
Ye Yunyang looks like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, he does have proud capital, the three confidantes are all tasked with the country, and two of them are imperial princesses, which is enough to envy others.
"Ahem!"
A dry cough sounded behind the two of them, and Mei Yu came over and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed you to whisper, but there is something very important that I have to tell you." ”
Ye Yunyang put away his smile and said, "What's the matter?"
"We're on the wrong course. Mei Yu said.
"Impossible!" Ye Yunyang immediately retorted: "The course is set by dozens of sailing experienced soldiers, and it can be corrected at any time, how can it be wrong?"
Mei Yu shrugged: "I also want to say yes, but the truth is in front of me, it is indeed wrong! But I want to emphasize one point, wrong does not mean bad, we took a shortcut by mistake." ”
Ye Yunyang's eyes lit up: "What do you mean?"
"That's right!" Mei Yu nodded firmly: "We have reached the outer perimeter of the mist, and I can't calculate how long the road remains, but I can be sure - it's close!"
