Chapter 70 Sea Monster Attacks
The sea water did not recede, on the contrary, it rained continuously. At the foot of Cuiwei Mountain, the water level continued to rise.
Looking at the entire Haicheng, the safest place is still Cuiwei Mountain. The halfway up the mountain has become a refuge, so Gu Nian and the Aurora team stayed in the camp for the time being.
Hu Da is a member of the Aurora team who came this time. He is sturdy and has a simple face. He was a cook in the natural disaster and became an evolver by chance. This time, Hu Da took on the responsibility of cooking for everyone. The seafood that Gu Nian bought when he came to Haicheng was not left behind during the transfer. They were all packed in sealed boxes and distributed on each golden falcon, and all brought to Cuiwei Mountain.
Now seafood is the perfect source of food for the next few days. Hu Da built a simple stove under the awning, put a few pots on it, and started cooking seafood.
The cleaned iron plate was placed directly on the fire. After brushing with oil, squid, cuttlefish, shrimps, and oysters were placed on it. The squid and cuttlefish sizzled quickly, and after brushing with sauce, the delicious juice came out. The shrimp was cut into an anchovy shape, and it was delicious enough to sprinkle with a little salt after baking. The oysters were covered with garlic sauce, and the grilled oysters on the iron plate were extremely delicious. The various slightly smaller sea fish were washed and cut into flower slices, and then directly put on the iron plate to bake on both sides, and then sprinkled with barbecue seasoning. The outer shell was crispy and the inner layer was delicious.
Half of the iron plate was emptied, a whole piece of butter was melted, and then salmon fillet, cut lobster, and shelled king crab were placed in turn. The salmon fillet was lightly grilled and sprinkled with salt, and it was extremely delicious when it was eaten. The lobster and king crab were garlic butter flavored. After the iron plate was finished, they were grilled and spicy.
The water has boiled in the iron pot next to him. Hu Da pours in a pot of oysters, prawns, mussels, razor clams, cuttlefish and other small seafood. After blanching them, they are scooped out, rinsed with ice water, and then marinated in the freshly made sauce. The resulting seafood is delicious and adds a new flavor.
There is another clean large pot, which is used to cook large sea fish, which is a snack for the golden-winged falcon. If you want the falcon to fly well, you have to feed it well.
High-quality ingredients only need the simplest cooking to be delicious. Haicheng has a unique geographical location, and the seafood here is delicious no matter how you eat it.
The aroma of the teppanyaki grill was already overbearing, and with so many different kinds of seafood and spices, the aroma could drift at least ten miles away. In the entire camp, everyone who was alive was greedy when they smelled the aroma. Some people became hungrier the more they smelled it, so they had to light a small stove and cook in advance. Even the official members took out their own portable dry food.
Looking at other people's sumptuous meals and then looking at the tasteless food in their own hands, Gu Nian and his group suddenly became the most envied objects in the entire camp.
Gu Nian slowly finished a large lobster with garlic butter. The tender shrimp meat was mixed with the rich taste of butter, and the garlic aroma stimulated the delicious layers. It was delicious! Then, she cut a piece of salmon steak and put it into her mouth, which was another kind of fragrance.
While eating, Gu Nian opened the main panel of the system task. The light spot showing the Wind Spirit was always far away on the sea, as if it had learned its lesson and never approached the city again.
Gu Nian slurped up another oyster, thinking how to be patient and wait for the next chance to capture the Spirit of Wind.
Over the next two or three days, more and more people were arriving at the temporary shelter on Cuiwei Mountain. Various search and rescue teams organized by the government brought in more and more victims, but the sea showed no signs of receding and even rose higher and higher.
The hotels halfway up the mountain had already been fully booked, so many people had to stay on the spot in the open space. However, in their hasty escape, they could not bring much with them, let alone large items like tents. Therefore, people could only cut down trees in Cuiwei Mountain to build a wooden shed, and then find some sheets, cardboard, tape, leaves and other materials to cover the shed.
Many people fled in a hurry and had no time to bring food with them. The prices of goods in the shelters have skyrocketed. If the authorities had not provided basic drinking water, I'm afraid there would be unrest in the shelters at any time.
At this time, the authorities also began to publicize in the shelter, using food and other supplies to recruit evolvers to join the official rescue team.
Tu Jing and Gu Nian discussed whether they should join in order to exchange food for the Aurora team.
Gu Nian was planning to agree, but at noon that day, the situation suddenly changed.
"There's a sea monster!"
At noon that day, a sound of panic suddenly came from the foot of the mountain, followed by crying and hurried running.
Sea monster? Gu Nian reacted quickly and walked down the mountain, followed by the members of the Aurora team.
The foot of Cuiwei Mountain has been completely submerged by the sea. Cuiwei Mountain is located high above Haicheng. It is roughly estimated that the city has been submerged to the height of seven or eight floors. On the sea, three giant marine mutant beasts appeared. Each one is two or three stories high. One of them is a giant blue octopus waving its tentacles and easily overturning several ships. Not far away, there is also a mutant shark opening its huge mouth. On the other side, a giant jellyfish floated up. Can this thing also grow so big?
Giant marine mutant beast is coming!
The official team also arrived with Gu Nian and the others. Seeing the sea beast attacking, the official evolvers quickly set out, using a small speedboat with flexible steering to start fighting with the giant jellyfish.
However, the sea beasts had the advantage of terrain, and the small speedboat had difficulty rising and falling in the waves. The official evolver was in a stalemate with the giant jellyfish for a while.
Gu Nian felt happy.
Is there any prey more suitable for the Aurora Team than the sea beast in front of them?
As long as the Aurora team rode on the Golden Wing Falcon, they could directly achieve air-to-ground advantage over these sea monsters. To put it bluntly, if the sea monster wanted to attack the Aurora team, the Golden Wing Falcon could directly pull up to increase its altitude, and the sea monster would not be able to hit it.
The members of the Aurora team were also eager to try. They all looked at the octopus. No matter how they looked at it, those thick tentacles would be perfect for teppanyaki. If they could get it, wouldn't that mean they would have a snack for tonight?
Tu Jing thought so too. She had been staying in the camp for a long time and felt that her whole body was rusty. Now that the sea monster had come, it was a good opportunity for her to move around.
Tu Jing quickly stepped forward and asked, "Boss, how about we go get some food too... No, the sea monster is coming?"
Gu Nian agreed.
Next, the Aurora team, divided into groups of six, rode on golden-winged falcons and attacked the mutant sharks and mutant octopuses directly.
They have the Golden-Winged Falcon as their mount, so they can fly directly in the air to fight sea monsters. The Golden-Winged Falcon's sharp claws can also block the sea monster's attacks, so they are much more efficient than the official psychics.
Soon, under the attack of the Aurora Team, bright red water floated on the black water. It was the blood of the dead sea monster.
Several golden-winged falcons swooped down, grabbed the huge dead prey with their claws, and threw it into the forest nearby.
Food problem, perfectly solved.
The Aurora team brought these fresh ingredients back to the camp. The first iron rule of natural disasters is that whoever kills the prey owns it.
Gu Nian went to find Tian Mingyue, greeted her, and wanted to ask Tian Mingyue to help her find a researcher to help her test whether the captured sea monster was non-toxic and edible.
Tian Mingyue had nothing to do at the moment, so she simply brought the equipment over to do the test herself. She is one of Noah's youngest senior researchers.
Tian Mingyue tested the two sea monsters. The mutant shark was non-toxic and edible, but the giant blue octopus was highly toxic and could not be eaten.
Gu Nianzheng felt a little regretful, but Tian Mingyue asked her if she was willing to sell the blue octopus to Noah Research Institute and was willing to buy it for 5,000 spirit crystals.
For research institutions like Noah, extracting the venom of the blue octopus can be made into a variety of powerful lethal weapons.
Gu Nian agreed.
That afternoon, a notice was posted in the Cuiwei Mountain Shelter, encouraging the psychics present to go hunt sea monsters. Each one could be exchanged for Sea City points or supplies.
The Aurora team finally had something to do. In the afternoon, Tu Jing led everyone out, ready to kill a few more sea monsters. The ones that were not eaten or could not be eaten were sold to the Cuiwei Mountain Shelter. They were strong in themselves, and with the help of the Golden Wing Falcon, they quickly won the first place in the scoreboard.
Gu Nian only regarded this as an interlude, purely to make some extra money, but the shelter valued the Aurora Team very much.
The next morning, Tian Mingyue came to the camp again and gave Gu Nian the spirit crystals to buy the blue octopus.
Tian Mingyue came with a man in his early thirties, wearing a military uniform and with a serious face. He stretched out his hand to Gu Nian and said, "On behalf of the Cuiwei Mountain Shelter, thank you for your efforts."
Gu Nian was stunned and confused. Who is this person?
Tian Mingyue introduced, "This is Tian Jiaoyang, the military director of the shelter. The Aurora team cleared a large number of sea monsters, and he came here to express his gratitude to you."
Tian Jiaoyang? Isn't this naming method similar to Tian Mingyue? Gu Nian looked at Tian Mingyue and Tian Jiaoyang and found that their outlines were indeed somewhat similar.
Tian Mingyue saw that she had seen through it, and did not hide it, saying, "He is also my brother."
Gu Nian suddenly understood and realized that Tian Mingyue's family had deep roots in Haicheng.
Tian Mingyue told Gu Nian: "A new relief organization has been established recently, which specializes in taking in children. I have to bring researchers to enter the information of these children and help them find their relatives. If there is any problem, you can go to the relief organization to find me."
"Relief organization?" Gu Nian asked doubtfully. What is this?
Tian Mingyue explained: "After the tsunami, many children were either separated from their parents or their parents died, so someone had to go out and take care of them. Haicheng set up a relief organization specifically to take in these unclaimed orphans."
So that's it. Gu Nian had to say that the Haicheng government had done its best under the natural disaster.
Tian Mingyue exchanged a few more words with Gu Nian and then left with Tian Jiaoyang.
Looking at their backs as they left, Gu Nian frowned. For some reason, she always felt uncomfortable with Tian Jiaoyang. She had a feeling that this man was a little strange.
-----------------------------------------------------
Tian Jiaoyang and Tian Mingyue left together.
"Would you like to move to the top of the mountain?" Tian Jiaoyang invited. In addition to the halfway point of Cuiwei Mountain, a residential area has also been built on the top of the mountain.
Tian Mingyue shook her head: "You go, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Tian Mingyue was anxious to get to the relief organization, and she and her twin brother did not have much in common. It must be said that their concepts were very different.
Tian Mingyue hopes to help the victims as much as possible, but Tian Jiaoyang has always only considered whether the top people can stock up, so he strongly opposes the unconditional distribution of supplies to the people. However, strangely, Tian Jiaoyang actually strongly supports the establishment of a relief organization this time.
Tian Mingyue was very surprised and her impression of him changed a little.
Tian Mingyue left.
Tian Jiaoyang smiled gently, paced leisurely, and slowly walked towards the top of the mountain.
The top of Cuiwei Mountain, as the safest place in the tsunami, is now inhabited by the privileged class of Haicheng. A batch of mobile houses have been assembled here, each of which is very spacious, with a wide and spacious living room, comfortable bedroom and fully equipped bathroom. The living conditions are much better than those in the shelters halfway up the mountain. The food provided here is also very rich, and there is no sign of scarcity.
Tian Jiaoyang lived here. He walked into the mobile home allocated to him.
The door was guarded by his personal guards. When they saw him come in, they saluted respectfully, with mad devotion in their eyes.
Tian Jiaoyang walked into the room and used the key to open an empty room. In the middle of the room, there was the axis of the planet.
The Planet Axis has grown green roots again, but these roots no longer need to be buried underground, but exist as aerial roots. This means that the Planet Axis has reached the second stage of cultivation and no longer needs to be fixed in a certain place, but can move freely and use the aerial roots to absorb the power of the planet.
Tian Jiaoyang extracted the power of the sea city and finally cultivated the axis of the planet to the second stage. As for the fact that the power of the sea city was extracted, which led to a natural disaster-level tsunami, and millions of people had finally survived the global cold wave and high temperature, but were casually killed, what did this matter to him?
Tian Jiaoyang, or Yuer, didn't care at all. The death of ants was not a big deal, and being able to contribute to the axis of the planet was the greatest pride they could have in their lives.
Tian Jiaoyang walked over and found that black had quietly appeared in the light cocoon in the center of the planet's axis.
Tian Jiaoyang's breath was held as a huge surprise swept over him.
Very good!
He reached out and touched it carefully. The white light cocoon finally gradually turned black, which indicated that the Planet Axis was about to enter the third stage and usher in complete maturity.
Cultivation must be accelerated.
The fastest way to accelerate the cultivation is to use the blood of the evolvers, but this is not easy to do. If it is accidentally made public, it will cause consequences. But he is not as stupid as Imir, Tian Jiaoyang has already thought of a way.
