Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 298 Accident
There were faint cheers from the direction of the deck. Through the window of the bridge, Xia Ye saw the three Strike Witches who had returned early and successfully landed on the deck.

Although the Strike Witches had practiced landing many times before going to sea, the success rate had never been high. This time they landed successfully in the actual environment. No wonder everyone cheered.

A moment later, another black spot appeared above Moby-Dick and began to dive. When she was still dozens of meters high, Xiuji stretched out his tentacles and accurately wrapped her up.

Nana also returned to the ship.

"How long do we have to get to where the white whale is?" Xia Ye asked.

"Including the deceleration time, it's about an hour." Yaha replied.

"Then I'll go talk to Nana first and I'll be back later."

Walking out of the bridge, Xia Ye saw that Nana had been placed on the bracket that fixed the propeller by Xiu Ji. Two engineers were doing routine maintenance on the WS-1 that had just turned off. The girl opened the buckle and lifted her legs from the propeller. He pulled it out of the weapon and jumped lightly onto the deck.

"Nana." Xia Ye waved to her.

The girl turned around following the sound and found it was Xia Ye, so she immediately ran over.

"Lord Xia Ye!"

"Good job." Xia Ye said to her.

"Hehe..." The girl scratched her hair in embarrassment.

After chatting for a while, Xia Ye took out a few crystals and handed them to the other party: "Here."

"What is this?" Nana asked curiously.

"The 'Witch's Flame' contract." Xia Ye said, "Sign one, then pick a few people who you think have the best flying skills and have them sign it too."

Nana took the crystal from Xia Ye's hand and asked in surprise: "Witch's flame?! Is it the kind of black flame that never stops burning?"

Xia Ye nodded: "Yes, so try not to use it on the whale, otherwise even if you kill it, we won't get any whale oil."

"Can't use it on whales...ah, is this used against moth beasts?"

"Well, this is a batch of 'Witch Flames' specially customized by me from the city lord. The release distance is shorter than ordinary ones, but the power is much greater. Next, if the fleet is attacked by a tide of moth beasts, I need you Rush to the top of the beast tide to release these contracts," Xia Ye said with a serious face.

But Nana's focus was different from what she imagined: "City Lord? Is it possible... could everything everyone said... be true..."

"What did everyone say?"

"No, it's nothing!" Nana waved her hands hurriedly.

Xia Ye was speechless. Just by looking at the other person's expression, she could probably guess what kind of gossip it was.

But she didn't clarify, because the truth was more exaggerated than the gossip, and telling them would only make them suffer even more.

She had no choice but to emphasize the important point again: "I am saying that when the time comes, you need to rush into the moth beast group to release the contract. It will be very dangerous and may even lead to death."

Nana blinked: "But we are cat witches. Since we didn't die when we turned into cats, we will have good luck in the future and won't die so easily."

Xia Ye didn't expect the other party to think this way: "Do other cat witches think so too?"

"Yes." Nana nodded matter-of-factly, "Everyone says that when you transform into a cat, you die once, and your life will definitely be very tough in the future. Some even say that we cat witches can be resurrected even if they die. I don't think so. I believe this statement, so I have to emphasize to them every time not to let the thrusters stall, and to immediately turn on synchronized reinforcement and afterburner when in danger..."

Hearing this, Xia Ye couldn't help but laugh: "WS-1 does have a lot of problems. I hope that by the time we go back to sea this time, Chris has developed a better propeller." "By the time this sea voyage is over, each of us will Can you get a lot of magic?" Nana asked with bright eyes.

"Of course. Didn't you find a white whale not far out to sea?"

After chatting with Nana for a while, Xia Ye returned to the cab. At this time, the Hyperion and the Coroncris were far behind, and only the Birren Hill was still escorting the Mobydick's starboard side.

About 20 minutes later, the deck became busy again, and the Strike Witches took off again. Their mission was to guard the surrounding airspace when the Moby Dick was parked, to guard against possible incoming moth beasts, whales, or other enemies.

The attacking formations were rotated into No. 2 and No. 3, but since these two formations could not elect a captain for the time being, Nana could only take off again. As their temporary captain, she was fully responsible for the air command.

It took about half an hour, and all nine Strike Witches were successfully ejected. The deck was cleared again, and the Moby Dick began to slow down. Tang Li told Yaha and Xia Ye through the communicator that she had also seen the white whale that Nana mentioned, and the distance was less than 9 nautical miles.

Soon after, the high-pitched roar of the ramjet at the stern subsided and turned into a humming sound in the fan state. Huge inflatable buoys were deployed on both sides of the ship, and the speed of the Moby Dick was getting slower and slower. On the deck, fellers carrying giant saws began to appear. The first mate grabbed the saw leaning against the wall, walked from the cabin to the terrace, and jumped down directly.

The sound of "dong" is like a signal, which instantly cheers up the lazy fellers and makes them stand up straight. The first mate glanced at them with a kind smile, put away the accidentally unfolded saw blade, put it on his shoulder again, and began to assign tasks.

Xia Ye looked at the deck below: "Actually, when I went to sea last time, I wanted to ask why the first mate always looked like he was ready to kill someone every time he assigned a task, and those people seemed to be afraid of her. "

"Where do you think the chopper came from?" Yaha replied casually while observing the sea of ​​clouds in front of him, "Those are all desperadoes from the Lower City, and the first mate is the desperado among desperadoes, and she is the only one." Can hold those people down.”

"Then how did you get her on board?" Xia Ye asked curiously.

"It was an accident. We had a fight because of a misunderstanding. I saw that she was good at it, so I said to her: 'It's boring to kill people. Do you want to kill something bigger?' And she agreed."

"Oh……"

While the two were chatting, the dead white whale was already in front of them. Xia Ye had seen it once through Nana, but now he was not interested in it, but it was the first time for Yaha to see it. She walked to the window, squinted her eyes and observed carefully for a while, then turned around and said:
"It's really strange. There is really no fatal injury."

"Let Tang Li use the 'Eye of Truth', maybe he can find some clues." Xia Ye suggested.

"Okay." Yaha nodded. In fact, the "Eye of Truth" was originally a contract used to check clues at the crime scene. Tang Li was probably the only one in the entire Debso Tower who used it as a lookout method.

Xia Ye walked to the communicator: "Tang Li, we need you to use your 'Eye of Truth' to check the white whale and see if you can find any abnormalities."

"..." There was no reply from the other end of the communicator.

Xia Ye said it again, and then Yaha shouted a few times, but Tang Li never responded.

"Maybe she spotted the enemy and has no time to pay attention to us for the time being." Xia Ye guessed, "I'll go up and take a look."

She left the wheelhouse and climbed up the steps to the terrace on top of the bridge. At this time, the Moby Dick had almost come to a complete stop. The hill-like carcass of the beluga was floating only a few dozen meters away from the ship's side. Some fellers had already used the "cutting" contract to jump onto the back of the beluga.

Xia Ye raised his head and looked towards the observation tower high up, and as expected he saw the huge eyeball. But unlike what she imagined, the vertical pupils of her eyeballs were not looking at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance, but were facing the beluga whale below.

"Tang Li?"

She shouted again, but there was still no response. An ominous premonition suddenly arose in Xia Ye's heart. Without time to think about it, she instantly unfolded the "Feather of Thunder" and flew up to the observation deck. Tang Li appeared in front of her eyes. The girl was covering her eye mask with one hand, her face was pale, her figure was Shaky.

Xia Ye hurriedly stepped forward. Tang Li leaned over and leaned softly on her shoulder. He said in a weak voice: "Check its head... I'm fine..."

After saying that, she fainted.
