Chapter 595 Deep Sea Ship Shadow
Although he is a little reluctant, the captain also understands that it is right to prepare everything while there is still time. After all, his treasure cannot be used just by hand. .
Although the celestial phenomena have changed now, it has not affected the audio and visual effects, so everyone can see the change in the captain's expression, which can't help but arouse their curiosity.
But none of them made a sound, just silently watching the development of the situation.
While the others watched curiously, the captain silently pressed a button on the console. With a series of machine rotation sounds, a turret slowly rose up on the deck.
This is an extremely simple fort with only three old-fashioned cannons, and they still require manual control.
But no one present dared to look down upon them, because they all recognized that these three cannons were genuine field cannons.
You know, this is a being who can be ruthless on the battlefield.
Perhaps such a firepower reserve is somewhat different from that of orthodox battleships, but in the civilian field, it is pure dimensionality reduction and crushing.
Even if you encounter a pirate ship, if you can distance yourself, you can probably compete.
At this time, everyone finally understood why Chen Ziyan called it a treasure, and why the captain hesitated.
Although there is no explicit ban on guns yet, this thing is still a contraband no matter how you calculate it.
If it were them, they probably wouldn't want to show this kind of thing in front of so many strangers. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable.
At this moment, the wind gradually became noisy, and it was obvious that the storm was about to take shape again.
This made Chen Ziyan and the others no longer interested in studying this ‘Pinduoduo version of the fort’ and returned their attention to the surrounding environment.
Chen Ziyan was even more focused. He had not forgotten the captain's concerns, which were the supernatural creatures that might be hidden in the storm.
The reason why he took the initiative to ask the captain to raise the cannon was actually for this matter.
Chen Ziyan can now basically conclude that this strange storm is related to the undersea tomb, so one can imagine what kind of supernatural creatures will appear.
The possibility of banning women is very low, because as far as Chen Ziyan knows, this kind of creature's home field is in the water, and it can only exert its full combat power underwater. It can be used against ordinary people after leaving the water. But facing professionals like them is simply giving away food.
So in Chen Ziyan’s opinion, the most likely one to appear is the Sea Monkey.
First of all, sea monkeys have very strong fighting power and are not limited by the environment. Secondly, sea monkeys live together in groups, so they have a numerical advantage.
This is very important. After all, even extraordinary creatures will not violate the law of 'one plus one is greater than two'.
If he remembered correctly, when Wu Xie and others came here, Sea Monkey seemed to be in an old fishing boat when he appeared.
Chen Ziyan does not think this is an accidental phenomenon, but rather a regular phenomenon, so he thinks it should be the same this time.
And he once read an analysis post about water monkeys, which focused on describing that the reason why water monkeys appear on abandoned fishing boats may be because they use them as nests.
After all, strictly speaking, water monkeys are amphibious creatures. If there are no islands around the habitat, it is very reasonable to use this fishing boat similar to a floating island as a nest.
The reason why Chen Ziyan asked the captain to raise the fort was also to prepare for this.
It will be fine if no ship appears later, but if it does appear, then these three artillery pieces are the best way to deal with it.
Even if the danger cannot be completely eliminated, it can still make the situation develop in a direction more favorable to them.
Even hand-to-hand combat is different, isn't it?
After what happened in the snake mine, he would not be so naive as to think that he would be like Wu Xie, who only had to face one sea monkey.
At this stage, who knows how many sea monkeys there are here. Although he had heard other people describe it, Chen Ziyan finally understood why the captain was so taboo after seeing it with his own eyes.
It is indeed a bit scary!
It is definitely an exaggeration to say that the celestial phenomena are changing with lightning speed, but it is really changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It can be said that from calm to stormy waves, the visibility is extremely compressed, and it only takes a few minutes.
At this moment, Chen Ziyan's expression suddenly changed, and he looked to the side and ahead with a solemn expression.
Although he could no longer see the specific situation clearly, he could hear some strange sounds.
Although the wind and waves around him were getting more and more violent, the noise that appeared was very monotonous, so if there was a slightly special sound, it was immediately caught by Chen Ziyan.
After listening carefully, Chen Ziyan felt that the voice was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
Just at this moment, a wave of waves came and hit the hull of the ship.
When the crashing sound of the waves sounded, Chen Ziyan immediately came back to his senses. Isn't this the sound he heard.
When this idea appeared, Chen Ziyan immediately realized that the crisis was imminent.
The noise almost made it clear that a ship was approaching them.
Without any hesitation, Chen Ziyan immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, be careful, something is coming!"
However, a warning was a warning, and Chen Ziyan did not tell all his guesses. In any case, the team was formed temporarily, and a little hiding would only benefit him, not any harm.
No one doubted Chen Ziyan's words. Everyone on the deck immediately became more vigilant. The crew member responsible for controlling the cannon directly pointed the muzzle of the cannon in the direction pointed by Chen Ziyan.
Looking at their posture, I am afraid they will open fire at the next moment.
But this is understandable. After all, these people are just ordinary crew members. Although they have relatively advanced skills, they have not faced such incidents personally many times.
Chen Ziyan didn't say much about this, he just glanced at it with his peripheral vision and stopped paying attention. As long as these gunners could maintain basic composure, he didn't expect anything else.
Chen Ziyan and the others were not kept waiting for too long, and soon a blurry black shadow appeared in front of them.
“That’s a ship!”
As soon as the black shadow appeared, someone identified its prototype.
As soon as these words came out. There was an uproar among the people.
Although this is not a deep sea, it is still quite far away from the land. They were able to arrive in such a short time because they planned the route from the beginning.
So this ship appears rather strange.
“More than one!”
Chen Ziyan suddenly reminded.
He had been staring there closely, so he noticed the situation immediately.
