Chapter 779 Encounter Outside the Harbor

Thank you for the rewards, comments, and update tickets =w= of Tie Xueshang, but it’s a pity that you can’t get the update tickets.Ga
==========
Located in the G07 industrial area by the sea, it is a large port city, and its main direction is related research on marine and aquatic products.However, before the development of shipping, the Pengzu directly upgraded to the level of floating and air transportation because of the use of pumice stones. Coupled with the impact of the war, most of the production capacity of floating and air transportation was transferred to the war, resulting in this large-scale The port city is a little deserted.

The water depth of the entire port is only due to the good location, reaching 60 meters, and after simple cleaning and rest, it has become the only ocean port in Pengzu today.However, there are not many berths on the water where ships can berthed, which seems extremely deserted.

In the industrial area at the corner of the port, there are more than 20 docks of different sizes, but six of the large docks are all used for the production of floating warships, and there are only a few thousand-ton ships other than the number seven. The dock is because the military looks down on it.In addition, it has been nearly two years since the one-week war, and it has been re-converted to the production of sea-going ships.

But most of these docks are just marine offshore fishing boats powered by elongated steel-ribbed wood-hulled sails.

Separated by a line, on one side is a wooden sailboat leaving the dock, and on the other side is a steel floating warship that soars into the sky. I am afraid that such a spectacle can only be seen in the friends who have few people and high technology, but face even more formidable A race of space zerg threats to see it.

"Mariko, have you confirmed the direction of the school of fish?" Looking away from the wonders of the ship port, after a little emotion, the captain, the old Yutou, smiled and looked away, looking at the young man in the cabin behind him.

"Hurry up, don't keep rushing, old man!" The young man wore a strange helmet on his head, his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was taking a nap.But the people on the boat didn't really think so. On the contrary, when they saw the young man, especially the helmet on his head, most of the people around were envious and respectful.

At this time, a young man named Yuanzi exclaimed: "Found Dad! Bless the elders, it looks like a big fish school, and it is lucky to find this kind of fish school in the offshore!"

"Really?" Although the old Yutou was also a little moved, he was more puzzled.

Yuanzi said that if it is a big fish school, it must be a big fish school, everyone believes in this.Because Yuanzi is not only the precious son of Lao Yutou, but also the only person in the whole ship who is at the advanced level of ghost level.Under the circumstances that one has the possibility of becoming an energy servant after entering the soul level, most of the soul level and above have entered high-level or military institutions, and the high-level ghost level is considered a master among the people.

And like the helmet worn on Yuanzi's head at this time, it was the mental power enhancement device that Lao Yutou and his crew managed to raise money and bought through the acquaintances of the chamber of commerce.Although the enhanced mental power is not much, the main function is to allow the user's mental power to more smoothly condense into a fan to scan the surrounding situation.But if you haven't reached the high stage of ghost level, you can't use this kind of device at all.

After being equipped with this kind of thing, the fishing boat went out of port three times, and returned with a full load three times. Half of the income was invested in this helmet, so it was not until the third time that everyone began to reap the results.

Because of this, everyone pays more attention to Mariko who uses a helmet.

Of course, the old fish head is proud.

However, based on his decades of fishing experience, the discovery of Mariko should be rare.Most of the time, when there are some accidents in the deep sea area, the super large fish will move to the offshore.Unfortunately, limited by the performance of the fishing boat, the old Yutou and the books and records he knows do not seem to have many deep-sea documents, and friends do not have much time to explore deep-sea areas that are not important now.

After thinking about it, the old fish still shook his head.Now that the target has been found, it is enough to catch up.

"Half Sail! Mariko, you are in command, as long as you keep up with the fish!"

"Yes, Dad!" Yuanzi, who continued to wear the helmet, took over the captain's right that he had been looking forward to since he was a child with an excited face. Although it was only temporary, he did not know how many there were from inland river canoes when he was a child to the large fishing boats that are now offshore. This time, the dream in the dream directed everyone in person.

Accompanied by Yuanzi's series of skilled orders, several crew members in the cabin of the fishing boat pressed the buttons one after another.Driven by the motor, the sails start to open according to the designated area and adjust the angle according to the wind direction.

Although it looks like an ordinary sailboat with steel ribs and wooden hulls, the Pengzu has achieved technical strength after all.Temporarily not equipped with electric propeller boats, but using sailboats, it is just to save energy consumption among the people.

In fact, the technical level of an ordinary civilian ship is still very high.

In this way, the old fish head, like many fishing boats in the port, came in and out, left the fishing port area, stepped into the offshore area not far from the coast, and moved towards the target he found.

Three days later, the crew members in the cabin were mixed, but most of them were a little depressed.

"Could it be that these fish are playing tricks on us?" Looking at the fishing net which was still just a few silly fish after being put away, crew A angrily threw the fishing net on the ground, letting a clever little fish bounce back to the ground. in the water.

"I'm afraid this group of guys have learned their lesson. Is it really a fish?" Holding a white fish the size of an arm in his palm, crew member B was also a little depressed, but he put the fish into the fish hold.The size is also the harvest of a fish, and it can be sold for seven or eight yuan in the market, and a pack of cigarettes is enough.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, if you don't collect something this time, the fuck will have to wait until the next quarter."

"Yeah, I don't want to go back with an empty boat," Mariko was obviously the most depressed.Even though they had gained a lot in the past few times, even if they made the trip in vain this time, their ship was guaranteed for the first half of the year.But after all, this was his first time commanding fishing, and he did not expect to encounter such a cunning school of fish. Everyone had no losses, but he had losses.

"Why don't you go around or change the fish school?" At this time, one of the crew members suggested: "It's not a solution to always follow this fish school but get nothing, isn't it? Maybe there is a way out by going around the other side, or Simply change to another school of fish. Anyway, you have that helmet, Mariko, so it should be fine to find another one, right?"

But at this time, Yuanzi's young man's stubbornness came up, and he was unwilling to change his target after being beaten to death.

Everyone debated for a while, but in the end it was the old fish head who made the decision and continued to chase the school of fish all the way to the sea.If there is no harvest at that time, it will be decided whether to return directly or look for other fish schools depending on the situation.As for going to the deep sea, no one dares to mention it, because there are not only bad winds and waves, but also the threat of giant marine epic creatures. For a small boat like theirs, a giant black-handed octopus is enough.

In this way, the sailboat of less than [-] tons swam around the school of fish in the other direction.

And in the depths of the ocean at this time, there is a group of uninvited guests leisurely waiting for something to arrive.

As a crocodile warrior, Volkov certainly has something to be proud of.But no matter what, now that he was approaching the legendary cursed land, he inevitably hesitated.Even more than a year ago, Elder Stov brought back the specific situation of the cursed land to the big tribe, and even stated that the cursed land was not really a cursed land.They even brought messages said to be from the gods, but they didn't know much about it.

Therefore, when he received this mission, saying that he was going to meet the angel of the gods in the legendary cursed land, and even discuss what kind of demons to fight together, even Volkov was inevitably a little confused.

"I said Elder Stov, the matter is really as you said, it is not a lie to us people." Of course, he would not say this clearly, but what the warrior Volkov expressed to the elder beside him almost.

In this regard, Elder Stov, who returned to the big tribe more than a year ago, might still try to refute it until the other party admits defeat, but now, as long as he doesn't get entangled, he doesn't bother to explain.

Having said so much, it's better to follow along and have a look. Anyway, we are about to reach our destination.

Elder Stov thought so, looked at the hesitant warriors around him, and couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.After all, these 'warriors' who can only be pampered within the big tribe are not as good as Stalin and his group of warriors who met the envoy and then returned to the tribe with themselves.

"I don't know what's going on with Stalin and the others. The patriarch shouldn't embarrass them." Shaking his head, he imagined that nothing was wrong with him, and he even accepted the task to invite the envoys, so Stalin and the others were warriors in the first place, so it wouldn't matter Said: "At most, it's just that I haven't been doing well for more than a year. When the envoy arrives...huh."

Recalling the doubts he had encountered over the past year, Stov couldn't help but sneer.

At this time, a scout crocodile soldier in front swam back with a flustered expression.

"What's the matter?" Stov's heart skipped a beat, don't make any problems before finding the envoy, otherwise it will be troublesome.What's more, he knows very well that the land is not peaceful, otherwise the envoy would not want the sea race and the land race to unite.

"Boss, elder, what a big monster, chasing our school of scout fish!" The soldier gestured in a panic, but fortunately, he still had the courage to be a warrior candidate, and nothing happened: "The monster is huge, floating on the water. Up, but not down."

"Oh, does it look like the lower part of a fish? From a distance, it looks like a leaf floating on the water?"

"Hey, that's right, elder, how do you know?" The soldier's expression was full of curiosity, and it was completely "where did you know that?"

"That's good, everyone, get ready, it should be something from the God Envoy Tribe, remember to have a good attitude!" Stov felt relieved, seeing the questioning expressions of the crocodile warriors around him, a flash of joy flashed in his heart: "These bumpkins, I think I flew a long way in the big house led by the envoy, so I was scared at this point."

"Yes, but I can't control the attitude," the rebellious Volkov was obviously dissatisfied with the panic of the scouting soldiers. After reprimanding the elders, he shook his limbs and showed a strong face. The muscles of the tendons laughed loudly: "Is it an envoy of the gods? That's just what you said to the defeated soldiers, the elder. We have to confirm it!"

"You... Forget it, I don't bother to talk to you!" Snorted and turned his head away, Stov now wished that the envoys would come down immediately and chop this reckless man into coke like those demons.

In the line of sight, the school of fish used as a cover for scouting in the distance is engulfing a few crocodile scouts and approaching a little bit. Because the distance is a little far, everyone can't distinguish the expressions and movements of the scouts.The surrounding crocodile tribe warriors looked very relaxed. Although there were elders sitting in the battle, few of them liked to see this elder who had been highly controversial in the crocodile tribe since he came back more than a year ago.

It wasn't until the black shadow on the water surface approached from far that the warriors became restless.

"There is already an epic creature with a juvenile body, Elder Stov, is this the envoy you are talking about?" Volkov rarely became serious.Although he didn't want to see this elder, everyone knew what the premise was.And once the existence of the envoy is confirmed, and it is confirmed that it can bring great benefits to the crocodile tribe, then the status of the elder will be difficult to say.

"Not sure," although he really wanted to give an affirmative answer, but he couldn't be sure after all. Stov could only look at the fish chasing the school of fish in the distance with an unsure expression. A thing called a 'ship' used by a family of 'friends'.

"I can't tell!" Volkov said with displeasure on his face, "My elder, we only have a dozen warriors and dozens of ordinary soldiers this time, which can't compare to the more than 1000 warriors you brought last time. You can't say for sure, if something goes wrong, we can..."

"Don't worry, even if it's not an envoy, it should be something related to the land race mentioned by the envoy. We are all friends, and we may still be able to go on the same journey together."

"Land race?" Volkov and the surrounding warriors were mostly puzzled.

This made Elder Stov sigh slightly. You said that since the patriarch asked himself to lead the team to contact the envoy, why didn't he let the warriors who came here together back then send out a few people?These are all newcomers, please don't make any trouble.

At this time, the fish shoal had mixed with the crocodile warriors. For safety reasons, the crocodile people chose to temporarily hide among the fish to avoid causing trouble in uncertain situations.

But suddenly, the school of fish became restless.

"No, it's this kind of thing again, everyone, go downstream!" The scout hiding in the school of fish shouted.

"Damn it, what is this!" Unlike the scouts who had encountered it a few times, the others were obviously a little unclear, and because they were blocked by fish, most of them were caught by fishing nets.

"Elder Stov, this is the friend you said!" The captain of the Volkov warrior, who was caught by the fishing net indecently, was trying to split the fishing net with a bone tool, but found that the fishing net was surprisingly resilient. anger.

"Here, don't worry, I will negotiate right away. I also learned some Protoss language at the beginning."

"Then go!"

"Yes, immediately! Immediately!" Elder Stov, who did not hide in the fish out of trust, just avoided the fishing net, shaking his scales and strenuously upstream. Behind him came the panicked shouts of the crocodile warriors and soldiers. sound.

"Oh shit, this thing is pulling us out of the water, don't!"

"Don't move, why does this thing keep chopping!"

"Mom, I don't want to be cursed!"

"Hey!" Looking at the panicked crocodile warriors, Stov kept wagging his tail, and at the same time comforted the fishing nets behind him and his colleagues who escaped by chance: "Don't worry, we're fine on the water! pass!"

But at this time, no one left him, they were all busy escaping.

"What's this called!" Shaking his head depressedly, looking at the approaching water surface and the disturbed ocean around him, Stov kept praying, don't cause any trouble!

On the surface of the sea, the old Yutou also excitedly joined the trawling team.

"Come on, hey! It must be a bumper harvest!"

"Hahaha, let's see how you run!"

"Mariko, let the motor output more power! Reduce the speed of the boat and drag it slowly, exhausting the strength of these guys!" Seeing the excitement of the surrounding crew, the old Yutou also blushed.The harvest is second to none, the most important thing is that this precious son's first command finally has a harvest, and it is still a bumper harvest.Looking at the strength of the trawling net, it might be enough for a boat.

"Got it, Dad, aha!"

"Captain, there seems to be something in the water!" Sailor A near the ship's side looked at the sea surface suspiciously and rubbed his eyes.

"What, so many things are caught in the net, maybe there is nothing in the water? These are all good things!" Crew B decisively attacked his teammates.

"No, fish head! There are really things... ah! They are rushing over!!" The crew member who checked again did not dare to get too close to the side of the ship at this time, but he could still clearly see something outside the fishing net under the sea surface. Charge to the surface.

"What, let me see!" Seeing the crew who had cooperated for several years swear by it, the old Yutou was also a little uncertain. After carefully letting go of the line in his hand, he walked towards the first crew member in a few steps.

"Dad, be careful!" Yuanzi in the cabin was not wearing the expensive helmet at this time, and carefully controlled the boat to drag the fishing net.

"understood."

At this moment, Crew A suddenly turned around in horror and left the side of the ship, and when running towards the cabin, he accidentally pushed the old fish head to the side.

Before the people around could react to what happened, they saw the sound of breaking water suddenly and continuously, and then several crew members were surprised to see a group of humanoid creatures rushing out of the ocean. After jumping nearly one meter high, they surpassed this At that time, the somewhat low side of the boat was pulled by the fishing net and jumped onto the boat.

"This, this is!" Seeing these strange creatures on board, a group of five crew members immediately gave up the rope in their hands, let the net pulling equipment on the ship drag the fishing net little by little, and looked for self-defense weapons to face the ocean. The monster that rushed out.

"Ahem!" Elder Stoff was the first to jump onto the deck.Although I know that I can breathe on the surface of the water, after all, it has been more than a year since I left the water, so I started coughing continuously after leaving the water.

Compared to him who could still support his body by the sail and mast, although the other soldiers rushed up with the elder, they were not so calm.They were lying limply on the ground while coughing constantly, they looked like undeveloped freshwater crocodiles.

"This is... a crocodile?" The old fish head vouched for his decades of experience. It was the first time he encountered a crocodile at a place nearly ten kilometers away from the coast: "No, it looks a bit different?"

"Father, are you okay!"
