Chapter 269 No, this sea monster can never be completely eliminated?
"Your Highness," Chu Xuanyi came closer again and handed him three incense sticks, "Would you like to pay your respects as well?"
Xiao Yu didn't answer.
"You bow for me."
"Ah?" Chu Xuanyi was stunned for a moment. "Bow for you? How can I do that?"
"Just tell her." Xiao Yu looked at the vast sea and said in a cold voice, "I am only here to seek medicine to save people. I don't want to cause any trouble."
"If she blesses me with a safe journey, then everything will be fine."
"If she dares to stir up trouble and stop me..."
He paused, a murderous look flashing in his eyes.
"This king doesn't mind letting this East Sea have a new owner."
Chu Xuanyi's hand holding the incense trembled and he almost threw it away.
Oh my God.
This gentleman is really brave enough to say that.
He hasn't even put out to sea yet, but he's already threatening the Goddess of the Sea.
He looked at Xiao Yu's extremely serious face, and after confirming that the other party was not joking, he could only walk to the incense table with a bitter face and mutter to himself.
"Um...Poseidon, if you are still alive, please don't bother with my prince."
"He's not very smart, especially when it comes to things related to his wife. He's basically a lunatic. Please bear with me."
"What he just said was all nonsense. Just listen to it and don't take it seriously."
…
Half an hour later, the Wavebreaker hoisted its sails and slowly sailed away from the harbor.
The first few days were calm.
The power of Dinghaizhu is indeed extraordinary. No matter how strong the waves are at sea, Polang is always as stable as a rock.
The atmosphere on the boat gradually became relaxed from the initial tension.
On the seventh day, when the fleet completely entered an unknown sea area that no one had ever set foot in.
Trouble finally came.
"That...what is that thing?"
On the watchtower, the soldiers on guard let out screams of terror.
Everyone rushed onto the deck immediately.
I saw a huge shadow approaching rapidly on the sea not far ahead, like a moving hill.
When it surfaced, everyone gasped.
It was a sea monster they had never seen before.
It has countless octopus-like tentacles, each as thick as a bucket and covered with dense suction cups.
Its head looked more like a ferocious python, with a pair of lantern-sized eyes flashing with cruelty.
"alert."
"Everyone on alert."
The captain roared at the top of his lungs.
The sailors immediately took their positions, and the giant crossbows on both sides of the ship were quickly strung and aimed at the sea monster.
"put."
"Swish swish."
Dozens of crossbow arrows as thick as a baby's arm were shot towards the sea monster with a sound of breaking through the air.
However, those crossbow arrows that were powerful enough to penetrate the city walls only produced a string of sparks when they hit the sea monster's slippery skin, and could not even break its defense.
"roar."
The sea monster seemed enraged.
It let out a deafening roar, and a dozen huge tentacles suddenly emerged from the water, smashing into the Breaker like a battering ram.
"It's over."
There was a look of despair on everyone's face.
At this critical moment.
A black figure as fast as lightning jumped up from the bow of the ship.
Xiao Yu held a long sword in his hand and advanced instead of retreating towards the dozen or so tentacles that were falling down.
"Your Majesty."
Chu Xuanyi's heart was in his throat.
Next second.
The long sword in Xiao Yu's hand let out a clear dragon roar, and a sword light swept out.
“Puff.”
Blood gushed out like a waterfall.
The dozen or so huge tentacles were all cut off one after another, and dark green blood gushed out, dyeing a large area of the sea surface into a strange color.
The sea monster roared in pain.
Xiao Yu lightly tapped the broken tentacle with his toes, and then he rose again and rushed straight towards the sea monster's head.
The sea monster opened its bloody mouth and sprayed a stream of extremely smelly venom towards Xiao Yu.
The venom was so corrosive that even the air was sizzling from the corrosion.
Xiao Yu did not dodge or evade.
The true energy around him formed an invisible barrier, blocking all the venom out.
The long sword in his hand pierced fiercely into the sea monster's lantern-sized left eye.
"puff."
The long sword went in without a hilt.
“Ouch.”
The sea monster let out a terrifying howl.
It twisted its huge body wildly, causing huge waves on the sea.
The Breakers rocked violently in the huge waves.
Xiao Yu's figure was like a nail, firmly nailed to the sea monster's head.
He gripped the hilt of the sword and poured his true energy into it.
"Boom." There was a loud noise.
The sea monster's entire head exploded instantly.
After struggling for a few times, the huge headless corpse finally sank to the bottom of the sea helplessly.
The sea gradually returned to calm.
There was a deathly silence on deck.
Everyone stared in amazement at the figure slowly falling from mid-air.
It was not until Xiao Yu's figure landed on the bow again that they woke up from their dream and burst into deafening cheers.
"Your Majesty is mighty."
"Long live the Regent."
Chu Xuanyi let out a long sigh and sat down on the deck.
He looked at Xiao Yu's spotless black clothes, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Xiao Yu's gaze passed over the dyed sea and looked further ahead.
"Don't be too happy too soon."
“This is just the beginning.”
Chu Xuanyi climbed up from the deck, patted the dust off his butt and walked to his side.
"Your Highness is right," his expression turned serious. "The sea that can breed such a monster is definitely not a simple one. Everyone, be alert. I'm afraid there will be more troubles in the future."
For the next twenty days, they hardly had a good night's sleep.
All kinds of strange and ferocious sea beasts appear one after another.
The crossbows on both sides of the ship were almost turned into scrap metal, and the deck was always filled with a strong smell of blood.
Although the Dragon Shadow Guards were all highly skilled in martial arts, they were exhausted and injured after such continuous harassment and fighting.
If Xiao Yu hadn't been in charge, the morale of everyone on the ship would have been dispersed long ago.
In addition to the endless sea monsters, the more troublesome thing is the fog.
A thick fog came out of nowhere and enveloped the entire fleet.
The fog was so strange that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. Even the midday sun couldn't penetrate it.
"Xuan Yi."
Xiao Yu's voice rang out in the mist, with a hint of impatience.
"How's the compass?"
"No," Chu Xuanyi's voice came from not far away, "This ghost fog is strange. It can interfere with the magnetic field. All the compass needles are spinning around like they are drunk and can't point to any direction at all."
A sailor cried out in a crying voice.
"Captain, it seems like we're going in circles."
"Shut up," the captain shouted angrily. "You're yelling and shaking the morale of the army. I'll chop you down."
Having said that, everyone's heart sank.
For a ship in the deep sea, being lost is more terrifying than encountering any sea monster.
This means they will be trapped and die here until the fresh water and food run out.
"Your Highness," Chu Xuanyi's voice rang out again, "Ordinary methods won't work. This fog isn't naturally formed; it's like some kind of formation."
"Can it be broken?" Xiao Yu asked directly.
"I'll try," Chu Yixuan took a deep breath, "I need time, and no one can disturb me."
"Can."
Xiao Yu turned around and gave orders to the people in the thick fog.
"Everyone, stay where you are."
"No one is allowed to make any sound without the king's order."
"Those who disobey orders will be executed."
