Chapter 107: The Beast Strikes
Wu Fan and Zhang Ping calmed the surprise in their hearts, but said, "How did the person who entered the demon cave die?"
"No one knows ...... yet"
Li Qiang sighed, and the three of them fell silent for a while, the invisible killer, the unknown danger, what is there in the demon cave......
After a while, Wu Fan sorted out his mood a little and said, "The hard-hit fanged pirates have re-emerged with the help of ink stones, so now there is an annual stone search mission?"
Suffice it to say, Fangs were reborn and strengthened, so the leader sent more of his stronger brothers to the cave to find the Ink Stone, but this time, the surviving seventeen people stopped the leader. ”
"Why?" Wu Fan wondered, "It's because of heavy losses, just give up?"
Li Qiang shook his head and said: "Of course not, those seventeen people stopped the leader for another reason, they can survive in the demon cave, and of course they know some things in the demon cave." In the Demon Cave, everyone's strength will be suppressed, and the stronger the strength, the stronger the suppression, so it is useless to send more masters. ”
The seventeen people consulted with the leader a lot, and in the end, the leader gave them all the task of searching for the ink stone, and then there was the annual mission of the seven islands to search for stones on the Black Rock Island. And those seventeen people can be said to have ascended to the sky in one step and become the rulers of Black Rock Island, and now there are five people who are still alive, and the other twelve people are either dead or missing, otherwise they will become the mainstay of the fanged pirates, a force to be reckoned with!"
"Because of the suppression in the cave, no matter how strong you are in the outside world, you will become a weak person who will die at any time after entering, so it is stipulated that the weakest hundred people on each island will enter the demon cave to find the ink stone. ”
Speaking of this, Li Qiang couldn't help but look at Wu Fan and Zhang Ping, he knew that the two of them took the initiative to participate in this mission, which was different from the weakest hundred. But when they enter the Demon Cave, even if their strength is slightly higher, they will still be pressed to the same level, and the danger cannot be reduced, so why should they risk participating in the stone search mission?
Seemingly sensing Li Qiang's doubts, Wu Fan explained: "Because my cultivation has encountered a bottleneck, I have to take a risk to fight once in order to break through. ”
In fact, it was the first time that Zhang Ping and Wu Fan had heard that there would be suppression in the Demon Cave, so that their advantage would no longer exist, how could this be good? The Demon Cave was too weird, and the two of them couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Boom! boom!"
Li Qiang, who was about to say a few words, was interrupted by this sudden sound.
"What's going on?" Zhang Ping said to Wu Fanke.
Wu Fan shook his head helplessly, joking, everyone is here, how do you know the situation outside.
Then, the whole ship shook, and the room that had just been cleaned up was in chaos for a moment, and after a while, the ship calmed down again, but there was a loud noise outside.
"Oh no! Brother Qiang. Lin Dongxing rushed into the room in a panic, followed by Sanming with an anxious face.
"What's going on?" Li Qiang's face was a little ugly, and a bad premonition crept up.
Whether it was his men or the movement of the ship, it was all hinting at something.
"It's a water beast! There are a large number of water beasts following behind the ship, and they can surround us at any time!" said Sanmei.
Water beasts are the most annoying and terrifying creatures in the sea, they have a variety of appearances, different strengths, weak water beasts generally like to live in groups, as soon as they appear, a large area, very difficult. And the powerful water beasts, all of them are huge, overturning rivers and seas, like this ship, can be sunk with one blow, that is the most terrifying!
"Water beasts?" Li Qiang was not as panicked as he imagined, lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Let all the artillery bombardment break up the water beast herd, and you can't let them get on the boat!"
"No! Brother Qiang, I've already tried, there are too many water beasts, and I can't break up at all! Fortunately, the water beasts haven't been on the boat yet. ”
This is the only place to be glad of, once the water beasts are on the boat, they have little ability to resist, they have no power to return to the sky, and now there is still a chance!
The situation was so critical, Li Qiang couldn't delay for a moment, turned to Wu Fan, and Zhang Ping said: "You two just wait here for a while, and I'll come when I go." ”
"No need, let's go together, everyone is a member of the ship, how can we ignore it and stay out of it at a critical moment?"
"yes! I'm not a bastard who hides behind others and watches them fight!
Wu Fan and Zhang Ping stood up together, looking like they were at home.
"Yes, I'm not wrong, but don't get too far away from me when the water beasts come aboard the ship. ”
Their words really made Li Qiang very pleased, but without Gao Qiang's strength, it was useless to say more, they still needed protection.
"That's nature, you can't rush into the water beasts alone. Wu Fan and Zhang Ping nodded.
So a group of five hurried to the deck.
A large amount of fog filled the ship's surroundings, as if it had become a huge hazy whirlpool, circling the ship at high speed.
The star-blue light on the bow of the ship kept flickering, illuminating the surroundings, and the pitch-black water rolled violently, spitting out strange black creatures from time to time.
The cannonballs, accompanied by thick smoke, flew into the black sea water, and exploded violently, and the tumbling sea water was like a bewitching black rose. When the roses withered and the sea calmed, several mutilated corpses gradually surfaced. The air smelled of the sea, a faint saltiness mixed with pungent smoke and the slightest smell of blood.
There are many people patrolling the deck in an orderly manner, they are the escort team, sworn to protect the fanged warship!
A team of seven, all standing on the edge of the deck to prevent water beasts from coming aboard, they have stronger strength, greater responsibility, and more natural dangers!
More people stood nervously in the middle of the deck than the convoy, waiting for the battle. There is no doubt that once the water beasts rush aboard, the deck is the biggest battlefield, and it must not be lost!
Wu Fan and the others stood at the edge of the deck, looking at the water beasts waiting for an opportunity to attack in the turbulent water, and they couldn't help but be shocked. These water beasts are different from the water beasts in the sea on a daily basis, they are all black, and there is no other color on their bodies. The size of its body is the most intuitive sign for judging the strength of water beasts, of course, there are some special water beasts that cannot be calculated according to common sense and cannot be generalized.
Most of the water beasts in the sea are half the size of a man, and they have strange appearances, either multiple heads, or fewer legs, or many tails, or fewer eyes, and they are strange but very fierce.
"Boom! boom...... Boom!"
The sound of shelling came into his ears, Wu Fan looked intently, and a cannonball hit the group of water beasts, blasting seven or eight water beasts into the flesh and blood at once. But there were too many water beasts, and the surrounding water beasts swarmed up again, instantly filling the empty space that had been blown up.
"I'm afraid there are a thousand water beasts. Li Qiang sighed.
How terrifying is this! Sanming and Lin Dongxing were desperate, dozens of water beasts, and a boatload of people could barely cope with it, but there would also be a lot of losses.
Hundreds of water beasts, no need to look, a boatload of people has no ability to resist, and they will be devoured in an instant. And thousands, that is equal to the difference between an ant and an elephant.
"Don't worry, these are Blackwater Beasts. Li Qiang said calmly.
"Blackwater Beast, is this different?" Sanming looked at Li Qiang puzzled, no one present was as well-informed as Li Qiang, not to mention that at this critical juncture, he was the most sensible.
"Of course there is a big difference, water beast, we will definitely die, black water beast, there is still hope!"
"These black water beasts can only appear in the depths of the Heavenly Misty Sea, that is, near Black Rock Island, because of the Demon Cave, the sea water near Black Rock Island is dyed black. Similarly, these water beasts were not spared, they became black water beasts, and because of this, they were suppressed only in the demon cave, and the strength of the whole body could not be exerted, except for being more disgusting and darker, they were almost useless. ”
"Really? ”
Although Sanming was a little skeptical, he was also greatly relaxed at this time, and the water beasts here were indeed a little different.
"Thousands of Black Water Beasts are not a small number, and I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle next. ”
Li Qiang turned around and walked to the center of the deck, and Wu Fan and the others also followed.
The eyes of everyone on the ship turned to the center, and their eyes were full of death intent without knowing the situation, and they could not muster the slightest courage to fight. Is there any hope...... It seems that Li Qiang is their only possibility......
At the moment when Li Qiang appeared, the eyes of everyone on the boat flashed with a hint of waves, and the gray and black death intent flashed with a ray of dawn.
"Right now, we are surrounded by Blackwater Beasts. First of all, please calm down. Li Qiang said.
"Blackwater Beast, what's that?" someone at the bottom was suspicious.
"Isn't it a water beast? What is a black water beast?"
"yes, don't they all look the same? It's just too dark, but the result is still the same. ”
The crowd whispered, and in their opinion, whatever it was, it was impossible to escape the doom.
"Brother Qiang, can we still live? Even if we are surrounded by black water beasts, the result still can't be changed. We're all going to be their food!" one of the pirates said weakly.
His words were heard by many people, and everyone was silent, because this was also their heart.
But Li Qiang said firmly: "No! We still have hope! Black Water Beasts are different from Water Beasts, they only have less than one-tenth of the strength of Water Beasts, or even weaker!"
The flame of hope was quietly ignited, and everyone gradually showed their vitality, only less than one-tenth of their strength? Thousands of black water beasts were almost comparable to hundreds of water beasts, it seemed that there was really hope!
If you want to burn the fire more vigorously, you need everyone's courage to unite and fight against everything!
"You are pirates, feared pirates with fangs! Are you afraid of a herd of animals? Do you all want to be cowards and be spurned by men!? Can't you just show your momentum, like a man, like a warrior, and go to battle!
"Kill them all!"
"Kill them all!!"
"Kill them all!!"
Everyone was screaming, their emotions were high, their morale was boosted, like a warrior who was not afraid of death!
"Pick up your arms and go to war!"
Li Qiang raised his arms and exhaled, the momentum was monstrous, like a strong voice that resounded through the world, announcing the arrival of this moment!
As the shout sign sounded, the entire deck was bright red, and a powerful aura burst out.
Most people have a faint red halo on their bodies, and occasionally they can see a faint orange light and yellow light, but Li Qiang has a green light on his body!
Green Mang!
The surface of Wu Fan and Zhang Ping's skin flashed with orange light, indicating that they had reached the realm of orange mang.
Sanming and Lin Dongxing are the realm of Huang Mang's consummation, and Li Qiang is the most powerful on the ship, reaching the realm of Lu Mang's Dacheng!
In addition, the captains of the six patrol teams are also Huang Mang Xiaocheng, and the rest of the team members are slightly worse, only the strength of Orange Mang Dacheng or Chengcheng.
But most of the people on the ship are at the lowest level of Chimang, there are Xiaocheng, Dacheng and a few people who are complete, these people are the weakest 100 people in the Seven Islands, and they are also the stone seekers of this mission!
The movement on the deck alarmed the Blackwater Beasts in the sea, and they all became restless, rolling back and forth in the sea, their blood-red eyes without a hint of reason. In the next second, they rushed towards the ship like wild horses that had escaped from the brisle.
"Blackwater Beast is coming!
"Boom, boom......"
The sound of artillery fire mixed with thick black smoke spread throughout the sky, and the flames filled the sky.
The Blackwater Beasts roared and rushed aboard the ship, stepping on the corpses of their own kind and climbing onto the deck. There were so many that the pressure on the patrols at the edge of the deck increased greatly, and even a few powerful black water beasts broke through the defenses and frantically pounced towards the middle of the deck!
"Kill!" Li Qiang gave the order, and everyone on the ship launched an attack on the black water beast that climbed onto the deck with weapons.
Sanming raised his big sword and ran towards the water beast, while Lin Dongxing picked up the giant axe and slashed at the nearby black water beast, and the deck was instantly chaotic.
"Haha, these black water beasts are really weak enough, and they can be hacked to death with one sword!"
On the battlefield, a strong man held a machete in his hand, and slashed the head of the rushing two-tailed crocodile-like black water beast into a terrible sight.
When did he kill the water beasts by himself like cutting tofu, he always fled in embarrassment under their claws, and he could finally ravage the water beasts at will, although these were black water beasts, but it did not hinder his desire for revenge.
"Kill these animals!"
The other pirate had the strength of the Red Mang, and with a single sword, he pierced the chest of a black water beast, drew his sword, and slashed at the other water beast.
Li Qiang watched the melee calmly, and occasionally several black water beasts rushed and were killed by him with one punch, and now was not the time for him to appear.
Behind Li Qiang, Zhang Ping's blood was boiling, he watched the battle excitedly, and said, "Senior brother, let's go too." ”
"You left and I right, see who kills more!"
Wu Fan is also eager to try, which is also an opportunity to hone his body.
"Good!"
Li Qiang didn't stop them, because the black water beast in front of him was not to worry, and with their strength, it was enough to deal with it.
At this time, Wu Fan drew his sword in his left hand.
Left-handed sword? Li Qiang looked at Wu Fan with some surprise, ordinary people generally hold a sword with their right hand, because most people's right hand is far more flexible than their left hand, and their strength is greater, so naturally the power of using a sword is stronger.
But there are also a few people who hold a sword in their left hand, and these people may not make the power of the sword enough, but the victory is that the sword is weird, and the sword move is tricky, which is the most headache.
But the current enemy is a group of low-intelligence black water beasts, and no matter how tricky the sword moves are, they are all the same in front of them. Obviously, it was extremely unwise to use a left-handed sword at this time, could it be because the bandaged right arm was inconvenient for holding the sword?
At this time, Wu Fan stared at a lone black water beast in front of him, and at the same time, the black water beast also noticed him, and was roaring at Wu Fan, although it was only half the size of an adult, but the bloodthirsty and fierce face was full of momentum.
Wu Fan condensed his breath, and the black water beast roared and rushed towards him.
In an instant, a flash of silver light, a man and a beast intersected.
"So fast!" Li Qiang, who had been watching Wu Fan, was just about to go up to help, but was shocked by his sword.
In Li Qiang's eyes, Wu Fan's speed is not very remarkable, but from the perspective of the same realm, Orange Mang Xiaocheng is unique! More importantly, the speed at which he draws out his sword is too fast!
