Chapter 245 Mutant Shark
"What if it's for making medicine?"
As soon as he asked the question, Gu Qing realized what he had said, since other kinds of refined ingredients could be used to make medicine, let alone this kind.
He lightly patted his mouth and quickly added, "I was being silly; I spoke without thinking."
Lou Xiaoyu pulled her hand over, "My Qingqing isn't stupid."
After sailing for about half a day, the bamboo slip informed everyone to return to the cabin and to arrange for those with earth and wind elemental abilities to enter the bottom of the cabin, as the ship would soon need to be manually propelled.
The sails were raised high, and a circle of fighters stood around the railings. The ship first shut down the activation core, and then shut down the anchor point.
And so, the beasts that had been following them earlier used the momentum of their movement to crash into the ship. The fighters then used their spiritual bodies or supernatural abilities to kill these beasts.
After these strange beasts were killed, they were dragged up to extract their flesh, tendons, and crystal cores.
In short, apart from the four of them and the protection personnel, no one on the ship was idle. Lou Qing and Lou Bai were also helping to kill the alien beasts.
Only when there were very few strange beasts around the ship did it gradually begin to move forward. With the help of superpowers, the ship was a little slower than when using crystal cores, but not much slower than in her original world.
Looking out the window at the sea, there were indeed far fewer strange beasts, but the ones that had been attracted were of much higher level.
However, due to pollution, they all look strangely shaped, with a variety of colors, and each one has a ferocious appearance.
However, almost all marine pollutants have crystal nuclei, only the types are different.
After sailing for a while, the ship swayed noticeably. "We've encountered something big," Gu Qing thought, quickly turning around and running towards the window facing forward.
Sure enough, a shark leaped out of the sea, only slightly smaller than the ship, but its dorsal fin was as sharp as metal.
Its teeth gleamed coldly as it opened its mouth, and four water columns swirled around its body as it leaped.
When the ship collided with the other vessel, it didn't capsize because the fighters used their supernatural abilities to stabilize it, but it was still shaking violently.
Lou Xiaoyu called out to Lou Bai, who came running over. "This shark has reached the seventh level. You stay here and guard the lady. I'll go out and help with the battle. Otherwise, even if Zhu Jian and the others can kill this shark, it will be difficult for them to escape unscathed."
After giving his instructions, he cupped Gu Qing's face in his hands, kissed her forehead, and then turned and left.
Gu Qing watched her figure disappear before she could even say a word of caution. Lou Bai watched Gu Qing staring at the cabin door.
Unable to resist taking a small step forward, she said, "Madam, don't worry. The clan leader has a high level of superpower. Even if he can't be killed, escaping won't be a problem."
Qi Bai nodded, "Chief Lou's spiritual body and superpowers are particularly suitable for fighting at sea. Just like Lou Bai said, even if he can't kill the shark, he can still escape."
Gu Qing shook her head and ran to the window to look again. The window only offered a limited view, showing only the mottled black and blue of the mutated shark, which occasionally flashed by.
Hearing the sounds of various supernatural abilities colliding and seawater crashing, but still unable to see clearly, Gu Qing became anxious and turned to Lou Bai, "Lou Bai, can I go out and take a look? It's at the corner of the second warehouse."
Qi Bai quickly reached out a hand to stop him, "No, no! It's too dangerous to go out."
"I'm not outside the cabin. As long as the shark doesn't break through the hull, I'll be fine," Gu Qing explained hurriedly.
Seeing her like this, Lou Bai thought for a moment and finally nodded, but then added, "If I want to go out and see, Madam must follow my arrangements."
Qi Bai was about to step forward to stop him when he saw Lou Bai slowly raise his hand towards Gu Qing, and a transparent dome slowly rose in front of Gu Qing.
"Absolute defense?" Qi Bai exclaimed in surprise when he saw the shield.
With the development of interstellar space to this point, superpowers are no longer limited to the five elements; there are many obscure or useless superpowers.
Examples include invisibility, poison, spatial manipulation, becoming more beautiful, growing longer, teleportation, and so on.
Then there's absolute defense like Lou Bai's. Of course, it's called absolute defense, but it depends on the level. The lowest level, F, might only be able to defend against ordinary punches and kicks, and there's a time limit.
