Volume 1 Chapter 98 There Is Really an Enemy Ship!!
An Xiu looked at Qianhai unexpectedly, "Then what should I do?" Is there a way to remedy it? ”
"I don't know...... Qian Hai lowered his head and ate noodles and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "Have you encountered those fluffy creatures in the past two days?" ”
"I've met it, it's far away." An Xiu was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Just before sunrise today, it appeared in front of the right side of our sailing direction." ”
"Which direction is the current today?"
"To the north is the direction in which we sail." Anshu asked, "You're going to find those fluffy creatures?" ”
"You don't have to look for it," Qian Hai drank the soup from the bowl, "I think it's best to keep a certain distance from those creatures, and if we encounter a hostile ship approaching, we can hide inside." ”
An Xiu nodded: "I know, those creatures are likely to move with the current, and I will calculate the approximate location of those fluffy creatures based on the changes in wind speed and current speed from this morning to now." ”
"Well, if they're sailing in the same direction as us, then let's move closer to them, and deviate a little from the course."
After the meal, An Xiu studied the nautical charts in the dining room for nearly an hour, and after telling Qian Hai the results he calculated, he went straight back to sleep.
According to Anxiu's calculations, the group of fluffy creatures should be on the east side to the south. If they slow down and head east, they're likely to come across the fluffy creatures.
Although Qian Hai had never encountered an enemy ship at sea, and he was not sure if the other party had targeted them, Qian Hai knew in his heart that other intelligent races were more dangerous than the various creatures in the sea.
In Qianhai's view, most of the natural threats from the ocean are simple and crude, and even if they are unfortunately killed, they are nothing more than direct death.
However, when encountering other enemy ships, it is completely different, Qian Hai and An Xiu are likely to become slaves after being caught, and even be decomposed alive and used as refining materials.
That kind of fate where life is worse than death, Qianhai would rather die quickly!
After driving for three days and three nights, An Xiu slept until late at night, and after cleaning himself up in the bumpy cabin, An Xiu came to the wheelhouse with two cups of tea.
An Xiu handed a cup of tea to Qianhai and asked, "How is it?" Is there anything abnormal? ”
Qian Hai took the tea and took a sip, "Not yet, the wind and waves are not too strong, neither other ships nor those fluffy creatures have been found." ”
Anshu took the bearing orb and looked at it carefully against the chart, "If I'm not mistaken, those fluffy creatures should be behind us right now. Based on the strength of the wind and waves now, they should be getting closer and closer to us. ”
"Well, that's a good thing." Qian Hai stared ahead, "I'm almost recovered now, even if we encounter them, nothing will happen." ”
"Why do I think you're nervous?" An Xiu asked as if he didn't care.
"Hehe, I'm fine, I just don't like the feeling of being a prey." Qian Hai sneered: "It's also possible that I'm thinking too much, and people don't take us seriously at all." ”
"I think your caution is necessary," Anshu reached out to hold the steering wheel, "You haven't eaten at night, have you?" ”
"Well, then you keep an eye on it for a while, I'll go cook, and call me if there's something." Qian Hai turned and walked to the lower kitchen.
Because he had something in his heart, Qianhai simply made some food, served it and ate it with An Xiu, and then rested on the chair in the upper dining room to prevent an emergency.
After midnight, the wind and waves became stronger and stronger, and several times turned the sea to the ground, which was asleep in a daze. Qian Hai simply hung a hammock horizontally in the dining room and continued to sleep on it.
It wasn't until the next morning that the wind and waves gradually calmed down, and after a day and a night, no ships appeared in sight......
"An Xiu, stop the boat first, come over for dinner~" Qian Hai put a large plate of grilled fish and fried meat on the table, "It's almost evening again, we still haven't seen any other boats, I guess I'm thinking too much." ”
"No, I always feel as if I'm being watched," An Xiu said with a solemn face, "Otherwise, I'll use my windslide to find the location of those fluffy creatures first." The change in the currents makes me a little uncertain about where they are now. ”
"Don't use it?" Qian Hai picked up a piece of bread, "The windslide may not be able to fly that far, and it is easy for you to go out alone." ”
Anxiu lowered the ship to a low speed, sat down at the table and muttered softly, "Okay, be vigilant against unknown dangers, but don't overwhelm your spirit by worrying about the unknown." ”
Qian Hai looked up at An Xiu, "What are you reciting by yourself there?" ”
"This is an aphorism I wrote to myself, not a scripture." An Xiu said seriously.
"Poof!" Qian Hai laughed and said: "You kid is funny enough~ You have made up the aphorism!" What's the matter, you're going to publish a book in the future? ”
"I'm a recorder, what's the problem with publishing a book," An Xiu said solemnly: "Now my aphorisms are too few, and when they are expanded in the future, they can be completed into a book, and they will be called Anxiu aphorisms." ”
"Oh, it's really disrespectful," Qian Hai held back a smile and teased, "I didn't expect that I knew a scholar." ”
"I don't have a common language with a vulgar person like you." An Xiu lowered his head and continued to eat.
"Hahaha, you don't have a common language with me, my god ......" Qian Hai suddenly got up and looked out the window behind An Xiu.
"Holy!!" Qian Hai turned around and rushed to the wheelhouse, slamming the rudder with both hands, and at the same time raising the speed of the ship to the maximum, "There is really an enemy ship!" ”
An Xiu immediately got up and looked back, and a huge warship had quietly appeared at this time, less than two nautical miles away from them!!
An Xiu hurriedly ran into the wheelhouse, "How did that ship appear, did you see it?!" ”
"I don't know! I didn't see anything just now, but when I looked up again, I saw that it was so close! Qian Hai looked at the azimuth ball and asked, "Are those fluffy creatures just southeast of us?" ”
An Xiu's brows furrowed, "The currents are constantly changing, and I can't be sure now. ”
Suddenly, an energy cannon exploded with a roar on the surface of the sea less than 20 meters away from their clipper, and the powerful impact set off a two-meter-high wave, almost knocking the clipper over.
"!! No matter! Qian Hai quickly turned to the southeast by the impact, "It's also dead to run in other directions, so you can only gamble!" ”
"I'm going to raise the energy cannon and reload." Anxiu turned and walked towards the stern of the boat.
"Wait a minute," Qian Hai called An Xiu, "don't fire after loading, we only have 15 shells, and even if we hit them all, it is impossible to cause fatal damage to that warship, so we must use them at critical times." ”
