Chapter 596 Sea Monkey
As the distance between the two parties gradually gets closer, more details can be seen clearly. In addition, Chen Ziyan's vision has been strengthened by the blood in his body, so he discovered the abnormality at the first time. place.
Although he was unable to determine immediately how many ships there were under the shady curtain, judging from the vague outlines, there must be at least seven or eight ships. They can be regarded as one ship. Team.
After hearing Chen Ziyan’s words, although the surrounding wind and waves became more and more noisy, everyone present had no intention of paying attention. Everyone was staring at the strange fleet heading here, trying their best to His eyes widened, wanting to see more details.
As the fleet gradually entered the illumination range of the searchlight, more details could be seen.
The first is the shape of these ships. It is not an exaggeration to say that the ancient and modern are merged. It can be said that the classic ship types from the Ming and Qing Dynasties to modern times are all included. The second is that these ships are very old and have obviously been abandoned for a long time.
“Could these be...ghost ships?”
After everyone else saw this clearly, some people couldn’t help but exclaimed.
No way, for these people who live on the water all year round, it is difficult not to think of this when they see such a scene.
Chen Ziyan did not express an opinion, but glanced at the person who spoke out of the corner of his eye.
But no one knew that in his heart, he had silently removed this person from the suspicious list.
The reason is also very simple, that is, this person is too restless.
Chen Ziyan believed that he was not the only one who had similar thoughts at this moment, but he was the only one who blurted it out, which undoubtedly explains the problem.
Although it is a bit arbitrary, he has reason to believe that this person will not be arranged by someone with intentions, because such a superficial and conspicuous behavior is obviously not suitable for hiding oneself.
As for the possibility of 'doing the opposite', Chen Ziyan had not thought of it, but as soon as the thought arose, he was decisively killed by himself.
Because that's not the way to play tricks. If you rush to attract his attention now, it will have no effect except being counterproductive.
“Whether it’s a ghost ship or not is debatable, but the iron cable boat probably didn’t run away.”
At this moment, Dong Yanxia’s voice rang out, attracting Chen Ziyan’s attention passed.
After hearing what he said, the others were stunned for a moment, but when they looked at the ships carefully, they immediately understood why Dong Yanxia said that.
I saw that the boats that were slowly approaching here seemed to be separate individuals, but in fact they were connected together by something similar to a vine.
Although it is not an iron rope, Lian Zhou has already seen it.
However, compared to the vines, Chen Ziyan paid more attention to another point, and that was the ability Dong Yanxia showed through this incident.
You must know that as the first discoverer of the fleet, Chen Ziyan has never relaxed, but even so, he still needs Dong Yanxia's reminder to discover those vines. Doesn't this mean that the other party's eyesight is stronger? Yourself?
Although Chen Ziyan has not deliberately trained his eyesight, after he acquired the bloodline, all aspects of his physical quality have been improved, including his eyesight, which has already reached a level far beyond that of ordinary people.
Now that Dong Yanxia can surpass him in this aspect, the meaning is far from simple as it seems.
As far as Chen Ziyan knows, there are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that Dong Yanxia has undergone special training since he was a child, just like their Wenshan Dragon Defense skill in Xiling, and the other is talent, such as his uncle 'Night Eyes'.
But no matter which one it is, it shows that Dong Yanxia is not a simple person. Unfortunately, now is not the time to explore these, so Chen Ziyan had to suppress his doubts temporarily and turn his attention back to the matter in front of him.
Looking at the fleet that had completely entered the range of the searchlights, Chen Ziyan realized that his previous idea was correct. Although these ships seemed to have complete frames, in fact there was only one left. It was just a pile of empty shelves. Let alone normal navigation, if it weren't for those weird vines to hold it up, it would have sunk to the bottom of the sea long ago.
In other words, this seems to be a fleet, but in fact it is just a special floating island composed of abandoned ships.
Scanning his eyes over the floating island in the distance, Chen Ziyan felt that this special floating island might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Although it looks lifeless on the surface, this is just the 'surface'. Who knows what is going on in those cabins, and no one can tell what is inside.
Maybe it is filled with sea monkeys, waiting to pick up the ship and attack them secretly.
Thinking of this possibility, how could Chen Ziyan let these abandoned ships continue to approach, and immediately issued an order:
"Fire! Don't let those ships come closer!"
Regardless of whether the situation turned out to be what he imagined, there was nothing wrong with being cautious.
After hearing Chen Ziyan's words, the gunners, who had already received instructions from the captain, sent out the shells in the barrel without hesitation.
Boom, boom, boom——
Although the artillery is a bit old, its power is still enough, at least it is no problem to face the situation at hand.
As the shells exploded, several gaps instantly appeared on the floating island in the distance.
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan quickly urged the gunners to keep up their efforts, because he heard special noises inside the abandoned ships.
Obviously his guess was correct, there was indeed something hidden in it.
But before the gunner could finish loading, a sharp roar rang out.
Everyone looked at the sound. At the highest point of the floating island, a huge monster appeared at some point.
This monster has a human form, but it is two to four meters tall. It is covered with scales and has a hideous and ugly face, just like the mountain spirit and sea monster in the novel. .
Chen Ziyan recognized the identity of the monster at a glance. It was exactly the sea monkey he expected.
But before he could tell what he had discovered, a series of responses sounded from inside the floating island over there, and then he saw sea monkeys scurrying from all corners of the floating island. out.
Although the sea monkeys that came out later were much smaller than the first one, at most the size of an ordinary person, the number was really staggering. At a rough look, it would definitely not be less than three. Ten.
To put it bluntly, this is a terrifying number.
Even if others haven’t recognized the identity of these sea monkeys, they know that they are some kind of amphibious creatures, so it goes without saying how bad the situation is.
This can be seen from the solemn expressions of everyone on the deck. Almost all of them have weapons in their hands, even Dong Yanxia, who has always been carefree, is no exception.
