The artillery fire that had been prepared long ago bombarded the sea from the deck.
The sound of gunfire and the crashing of waves were endless, making people feel uneasy.
The sea monster did not reappear.
It was quiet except for the sound of the waves.
The atmosphere on the boat was silent and no one spoke.
The captain's thanks were particularly clear.
Zhao Xian: "We are all human, working together."
That's quite generous. Qiao Xuejun glanced at Zhao Xian before slowly replying, "Working together is hard work for everyone. But don't always think that the First Base is trying to harm you. They won't listen to this and they'll be suspicious of that. They'll only hold us back."
Captain Qin: "...Yes, it's our problem. We didn't think the First Base harmed us. We were just deceived by that Ice-footed Horse."
Qiao Xuejun chuckled again when he heard him say this: "If you're really that jealous of the Ice-footed Horse, then come and join the First Base. Lord Zhao has reserved a place for you."
Captain Qin was speechless. After a while, he said, "Thank you very much for this time."
Zhao Xian raised his lips and started communicating with Ren Wangwang again, exchanging information about the sea monster.

Qiao Xuejun's act of recruiting people was applauded by the system: "Well done, host! Raise a lot of people!"
Qiao Xuejun: "...I'm not worried now. Three hundred people can come back."
System: "Host, after digesting that 5% of energy, I have become a little stronger and my functions are clearer."
Qiao Xuejun was interested: "How do you say it?"
System: "The functions of the shelter can be upgraded. For example, the automatic irrigation system can store 100,000 kilograms of food without the host having to fetch water for it himself! The living area can also be equipped with universal water and electricity, and can store 1 million kilograms of food, providing the greatest convenience for life!"
Qiao Xuejun was surprised. "Are you that advanced?" Although it was expensive, Qiao Xuejun hadn't used much of the 40 million kilograms of grain in his warehouse yet. He could definitely afford it.
"I learned this from the Favorability System. It has so many functions," the system exclaimed, tinged with envy. "Host, Shen Xingtang lives a very comfortable life. She even has heating, a massage chair, and a large bathtub."
Qiao Xuejun: "Can you arrange it?"
System: "Partially. Still unlocking."

At 12 o'clock in the evening, Qiao Xuejun followed Zhao Xian down the mountain to pick up the people on the White Shark. They also brought a lot of people and cars to transport things.
The White Shark was docked about two kilometers away from the foot of the mountain. Because of the cold weather, the area extending two kilometers from the foot of the mountain had frozen into an ice field.
Two kilometers away, due to ocean currents and wind flow, it still remains in a flowing and uncondensed state.
Zhao Xian held Qiao Xuejun's hand and walked forward with the patrol team to pick up the people.
Qiao Xuejun looked at the stretching ice sheet, with the White Shark at the end. "This ice sheet is at least twice as far as the last time we went out."
The ice field beneath their feet was very flat and wide, and seemed to stretch far out. Their shoes had been treated, and they were used to it, so they walked fairly steadily.
Zhao Xian: "Yes, we measured it before the voyage. The solidification at the foot of our mountain is very deep, and it's all ice below four meters."
He said, "The sea fort is close to the sea. About a kilometer away, the ice is thin. You can drill through it and go ice fishing."
Qiao Xuejun: "At this rate, once the second low temperature passes, maybe we won't need a boat to go to the city anymore and can just walk."
Even drive there.
After all, the second low temperature will last for two months.
Although it looked close, it still took a while to reach the White Shark.
Zhao Xian ordered: "Prepare to pick them up."
The patrol team responded by forming an orderly line on the shore, with their artillery fire directed outward in unison to deter any sea monsters that might attack at any time.
The ferry was lowered on the boat and supplies began to be sorted out and unloaded.
Qiao Xuejun saw a place on the sea that was still rolling and gurgling. A sea monster was lurking there. He wanted to get closer but didn't dare to.
They were wary of gunfire and retreated, yet unwilling to leave. They repeatedly swam around more than ten meters from the boat, seemingly with other plans in mind.
Qiao Xuejun's eyes were always fixed on the abnormalities on the sea surface. He kept his pistol in the most convenient bag, alert for those things that might suddenly rush up.
Supplies from the boat were constantly being taken off and loaded onto sleds, ready to be transported up the mountain.
Qiao Xuejun: "They don't dare to come up."
Zhao Xian: "They will also weigh the pros and cons. The current situation is not favorable to them, so they won't easily come out and get shot."
"But it's inevitable that something disgusting will happen."
As soon as Zhao Xian finished speaking, the surface of the water suddenly seemed to boil, and small bubbles bulged out. Soon, black snakes leaped out of the sea and rushed towards the shore like flying arrows.
Qiao Xuejun drew his gun.
Without waiting for Zhao Xian's order, the patrol members in front had already started to fight back with great experience, and the sound of gunfire rang out.
Qiao Xuejun could see that the jumping little black snakes had sharp teeth in their mouths and gray-green eyes.
Most of these sea toxins are poisonous.
She fired continuously at the target in the air.
In the sea, a huge snake head looked towards this side with a cold expression.
These small sea snakes with lower mutation levels should be driven by the giant sea snake.
"Bang! Bang!"
Intensive firepower.
The ground was littered with broken black snake limbs, most of which fell back into the sea after being shot.
Some of them fell onto the shore and struggled to move towards the crowd.
It would be troublesome if they bit you.
The patrol members are well-trained and shoot fish powder bags directly into the sea water as attractants. Sea snakes with low mutation levels will instinctively turn back to chase them and fall into the sea again.
With a splash, they all fell into the water.
