Chapter 35: The Hunt Begins
When Arthur and the others arrived at Jianjiao Village, this small fishing village had already gathered nearly a hundred rangers, and there was also a steady stream of nearby rangers.
The fact that this small fishing village was able to gather so many rangers in such a short period of time was due to Tuttle's great reputation among the rangers, and all the rangers trusted him from the bottom of their hearts and were willing to follow him.
Standing in front of Arthur, Tuttle was tall and burly, with an angular face, a piercing gaze, and long brown hair tied with a tendon. Tuttle was nearly sixty years old, the golden age of a Terran warrior, and his body was full of strength and fighting spirit.
Arthur felt Tutle's charm as soon as he made contact, his attitude was sincere, his language was infectious, he patted Arthur on the shoulder and said: "I heard a few of them say that you are the kid who can hunt seventh-level demonic beasts alone, right? If you say that you are not a ranger, then all of us here are not worthy of being called rangers!"
Tuttle lifted Arthur very high without causing a hint of discomfort. And Arthur also got his first good news about the Blue Enchantress in the Norman kingdom from Tuttle.
"The Blue Enchantress Deputy Alliance Master organized rangers to hunt and kill demonic beasts on the West Coast some time ago, and I have already reported the upcoming hunting operation here to the Deputy Alliance Leader, maybe she will come over during this time. ”
With such news, Arthur certainly had no reason to refuse Tuttle's invitation to carry out the next concentrated hunt around Waterdrop Island.
Arthur settled down in the fishing village of Jianjiao with peace of mind.
Rangers gathered here every day, and the small fishing village soon gathered nearly 200 rangers, and later rangers could only pitch tents on the beach outside the village.
In the past few days, Ryarthur has also learned from the mouths of other rangers about the reason why Tuttle is organizing this concentrated hunt.
Twenty nautical miles away, Drop Island is regarded by local fishermen as the dividing line between the offshore and deep seas, and previously sea monsters were rarely seen in the offshore waters west of Drop Island. But since the outbreak of the sea monsters, more and more monsters have crossed the water drop island and landed on the coast to attack the fishing village.
Sea monsters will take advantage of the high tide at night to land on the coast, but after hunting, they will not stay on the shore, nor do they return to the original sea area, but cruise near the water drop island, and some amphibious sea monsters even go directly ashore to occupy the water drop island, waiting for the opportunity to hunt again.
Tuttle saw this in mind, and organized a concentrated hunt to avoid the weak defense of the rangers scattered in various fishing villages.
On this day, the sun is rising, and all the rangers gather at the fishing village pier.
There are currently more than two hundred rangers gathered in Sword Horn Village, and Tuttle is not ready to wait any longer, today is the day when the operation to hunt Warcraft begins.
Tuttle stood on the mast of a fishing boat more than ten meters long, and shouted down: "Thank you ranger brothers for gathering here for the righteousness of protecting the fishing village, our hunt is a collective action, and then please also ask all brothers to obey my Tattle's unified arrangement, I will definitely be the first to go up and the last to withdraw in case of danger, and I hope that all brothers can work together and help each other!"
The hunt began with the shouts of all the rangers.
Arthur, who was in the middle of it, also boarded one of the fishing boats, and the only regret for Arthur was that he still didn't wait for the arrival of "Blue Enchantress" Aretha.
For this hunt Tuttle, he is also fully prepared. He collected dozens of these medium-sized fishing boats more than ten meters long from a nearby fishing village, and equipped each fishing boat with powerful fishing crossbows on the bow and sides of each fishing boat, which were enough to hunt large fish and inflict damage on demonic beasts below the minor lord.
On average, seven or eight rangers rode on a fishing boat. In addition to him and Biske on Arthur's fishing boat, there are also six rangers who have fought together in the fishing village before, and the middle-aged man who leads them is Noor in Tuttle's mouth.
Because they had seen Arthur's terrifying strength, several people had already planned to follow Arthur for this hunt, and Arthur would be able to drink soup with them if he ate meat.
Running into the sea to actively hunt demonic beasts is a little disadvantageous for the human race, but for warriors above the captain level who can fight through the body, they can still step on the water to fight in a short time.
Tuttle's fishing boats rowed at the front, and the other rangers' fishing boats followed very scattered, each of which maintained a distance of nearly 100 meters.
As they approached the waters around Drop Island, all the rangers began to be vigilant, and a battle could happen at any time.
Arthur saw Waterdrop Island for the first time, and the island was lush and overgrown with tall tropical plants. The island is also shaped like a drop of water, with a narrow side facing the coast, and the diameter of the island grows wider the deeper you go into the ocean.
Tuttle's fishing boat came to a halt about a nautical mile from Drop Island, slit the necks of several beasts brought with him and threw them into the water dozens of meters away.
Sea monsters are predators, and the blood of these beasts will quickly disperse after falling into the water, and the smell of blood can easily attract the predatory sea monsters.
Not long after the beast was thrown into the sea, a huge wave swelled under the surface of the water, and even a huge shadow could be faintly seen swimming underwater.
Several of the rangers on the Tuttle fishing boat had tightened their grips on the crossbows on the side of the boat, their eyes glued to the water, ready to snap their braces.
Two more fishing boats came up from behind, rowing far from the left and right sides towards the place where the waves were rising, ready to cooperate with Tuttle in the hunt.
When the two boats were about to be in position, Tuttle suddenly jumped from the fishing boat onto the surface and sped towards the shadows underwater.
A huge mountain opening knife in Tuttle's hand slashed down with enough strength to go underwater, and a big knife in the shape of a fighting spirit slammed deep into the water, and this knife exploded more than ten meters high waves on the sea surface.
A huge black shadow burst out from under the water with the splashing waves, this sea monster was five or six meters long, and had a long golden snout like a spear.
"It's a tuna!" exclaimed a ranger.
The screams were accompanied by the sound of the wind and the sound of three-pointed harpoons, which were shot from different boats and from different angles.
The Tuna Fish jumped out of the water and went underwater again, only to be stuck with two harpoons in a matter of seconds.
As soon as the spear-carrying Tuna entered the water, Tuttle's second knife blasted into the water, and the waves that exploded lifted the Tuna's huge body out of the water again.
This time it never had a chance to re-enter the water, and Tuttle's knife slashed at its body, nearly slicing the tuna's body in half.
is worthy of being the strongest ranger under the known war general, and he hunted an intermediate sea monster with only three swords.
Tattle's action also officially kicked off the prelude to this concentrated hunt of sea monsters, and the rangers on other fishing boats also began to throw baits into the sea one after another, preparing to hunt sea monsters......
