Lucy suppressed her physical discomfort and staggered off the boat. She muttered to herself as she saw the huge dock in front of her.
This journey was destined to be an unforgettable one. It was the first time in her life that a ship of pirates could be so shaken that they became seasick.
She even felt that she was not sailing on the water but flying in the sky. It was so shaky!
But unfortunately, after Zhang Feng let them into the ship, he did not let them out again, which resulted in them not seeing that the Yunhai had actually flown back!
Now all the pirates on the ship were suffering from seasickness, but since they were on such a magnificent ship, they naturally did not dare to vomit casually. They had been trying to hold it in throughout the journey.
Now that the Yunhai had finally stopped, they all rushed down impatiently, and one by one they lay on the ground and vomited. Lucy was worthy of being the leader. Regardless of her fighting ability, at least she did not behave too inappropriately.
At this time, it was already dark, and there was no one else on the dock except the soldiers on duty, so the Yunhai's return was very low-key.
Since Zhang Feng communicated with Yunhai City in advance, the soldiers on duty were not surprised to see so many pirates.
"Yes, this is Yunhai City, everyone follow me."
Zhang Feng said to Lucy.
"OK!"
Lucy quickly asked everyone to follow Zhang Feng and the other two.
After the pirates vomited, the feeling of seasickness was relieved a lot, and they had time to look around.
"Oh my god! After a year, the dock in Yunhai City has grown so big!"
"This can accommodate several hundred ships at the same time, right?"
“It’s magnificent!”
“…”
When the pirates saw the Yunhai City Pier, they were all very surprised. The main reason was that they used to come to Yunhai City frequently a year ago. At that time, the Pier could not accommodate so many ships. If they wanted to occupy a good position, they could only rob.
But now, the ships are parked neatly and orderly at the dock. Even if the giant ship Yunhai comes, there is a special place to park it, and it will not affect other ships at all.
This gap is hard for them to imagine.
The pier is outside Yunhai City, but not far away and can be reached in a few steps.
Seeing the tall and mighty walls of Yunhai City, everyone exclaimed in amazement. Although they had heard that the walls of Yunhai City were majestic and solid, seeing it with their own eyes was a completely different feeling than hearing about it.
"Captain, is it really okay for us to go in like this..."
When they reached the city gate, a pirate spoke quietly to Lucy.
But they knew that the city was full of wanted posters for them. What if they walked in so brazenly and were attacked by soldiers? They didn't have any weapons with them, so if they were attacked, they would be dead.
Although the chief had said before that the owner of the Yunhai would help them solve their identity problem, this was related to their own lives after all, and everyone was worried. It was not that they did not trust Zhang Feng, but as long as there was the slightest accident, these pirates without formal household registration would definitely die miserably.
"Don't worry, I guarantee with my life that we will be fine!"
Lucy said firmly.
If she didn't know Zhang Feng's identity, she might still be a little hesitant, but after knowing Zhang Feng's identity, she had no doubt at all that Zhang Feng could revoke the wanted order. After all, the wanted order was issued by Zhang Feng.
Yunhai City had received Zhang Feng's message in advance, and after seeing that it was Zhang Feng himself, they immediately opened the door and let him in.
As soon as they entered the city gate, the pirates were dazzled by the colorful lights in the city.
Obviously, they have not enjoyed the nightlife of Yunhai City.
But what is most shocking is the wanted warrant for them.
On the street, someone was actually peeling off their wanted posters! And it looked like they were almost done peeling them off.
Let's not talk about whether this businessman has the ability to make Yunhai City cancel the wanted order. Even if he has the ability, his efficiency is too high! They had just entered the city, and the mysterious businessman had been following them. How could he have passed the news to them? They were all very confused about this magical thing, and they didn't even bother to look at these buildings.
Zhang Feng had no interest in explaining this to them, and simply had the pirates taken to a hotel to wait for notification.
After all, these pirates live on the water all year round and have rich experience in water combat. Perhaps they can provide some help to Zhang Feng in solving the problem of sea beasts. Of course, even if there is no help, it doesn't matter. He can still afford to provide a few meals.
As for Lucy, he left her alone. After all, Lucy knew a lot and might be able to ask some useful questions. Besides, they were pirates after all. Although Zhang Feng was not afraid, he still had to be on guard. By separating the leader from them, even if they had some ideas, it would be difficult for them to accomplish anything without a backbone.
After asking the servant to take Lucy downstairs to rest, Zhang Feng did not sleep, but came out with Hill.
"Zhang Feng, you don't have to come with me, it's too dangerous!"
Hill looked at Zhang Feng and spoke seriously.
"That's why I want to follow you because it's too dangerous. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable leaving you alone!"
Zhang Feng shook his head.
"You are so weak, I am worried about you!"
Hill spoke unhappily.
Zhang Feng was suddenly furious.
"Can you chat? Anyway, I have ways to protect myself, so you don't have to worry. If I really run into danger, I will definitely run faster than you!"
"Okay, okay, let's go together. If you get into danger, I won't take care of you!"
Hill turned his head away proudly.
Zhang Feng knew that she was saying one thing and thinking another, but he didn't expose her.
"Okay, let's go."
On the roof of the City Lord's Mansion, Lolihill turned into a red dragon again and squatted in front of Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng climbed onto her head, and the giant dragon Hill found the right direction, flapped its wings, and instantly disappeared into the night sky.
The direction they were heading was the East China Sea! More than ten minutes later, somewhere on the surface of the East China Sea, a giant red dragon appeared from the night sky and hovered there.
"It should be here."
The giant dragon spoke human language.
"Well, let's go down and take a look."
Zhang Feng tightly grasped the two dragon horns on Hill's head.
Then Hill dove into the water.
Their purpose this time was to find sea beasts, or to be more precise, the corpses of sea beasts.
During the day, the sea beast that fought with Hill was defeated by Hill and was killed. Hill knew that Zhang Feng must be interested in the corpse, so he prepared to take it away, but after the death of this sea beast, new groups of sea beasts appeared.
Although Hill is a giant dragon, he is a young dragon after all, and cannot deal with so many sea beasts. In addition, Zhang Feng is also nearby, and he is likely to be attacked by sea beasts. Hill can only retreat strategically and abandon the body of the sea beast in a place.
If these sea beasts do not eat their own kind, she still has a chance to get the body of this sea beast back.
When Hill told Zhang Feng all this, Zhang Feng's eyes lit up. If he could get the corpse of a sea beast, perhaps he could find out something.
He wanted to go with Hill. After all, this was something Hill left for him, and he felt bad letting Hill run errands alone all the time.
However, if these sea beasts eat their own kind, or if they collect their own corpses, then all my efforts would be in vain. I hope my luck won’t be so bad.
We didn't encounter any sea beasts along the way. I don't know whether those sea beasts returned to the deep sea or were lurking quietly.
Both of them were extremely careful. If they were besieged by sea beasts, it would be extremely dangerous even if they could fly.
Although Hill is a fire dragon, it is not very afraid of water. At least he can dive into the water without any problem.
The sea was pitch black at night, and Zhang Feng couldn't see clearly. However, after Hill swam flexibly for a while, he suddenly said to Zhang Feng:
"Found it, it's just ahead!"
“…”
Zhang Feng was a little curious. He wondered how Hill could speak in the water. It was as if the words were being transmitted directly into his mind.
In the darkness, Zhang Feng vaguely saw that Hill seemed to have grabbed something, and then he felt Hill floating upwards and the water pressure on his body was getting lower and lower.
Shortly after Hill left, one yellow eye after another slowly appeared in the darkness.
"call!"
Finally emerging from the sea, Zhang Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, with the light of stars shining, he could see clearly what Hill was holding. It was indeed a sea monster.
This sea beast is much larger than Hill's. Its length alone is several times longer than Hill's, and it feels like it may be over a thousand meters long.
Needless to say, the weight is definitely beyond Hill's reach.
"Is this thing heavy? Can you catch it?"
Zhang Feng asked with concern.
"It's OK, but it's much heavier than the Sea of Clouds."
Hill took a deep breath, then picked up the sea beast and was about to fly away.
Suddenly, the sea surface below cracked without warning, and a huge mouth bit Hill, who was hovering in the air! This was a sea beast of a much larger size, much larger than the one Hill was holding!
Facing this huge mouth of the abyss, Hill calmly flapped his wings and instantly disappeared from the spot with the corpse of the sea beast. When he appeared again, he was already a thousand meters away.
"Damn, you scared me!"
Zhang Feng, who was holding Hill's dragon horn, was still a little frightened. There was no sign of the appearance of this sea beast. If Hill had not reacted quickly, if Zhang Feng was here, even if he had Hill's speed, he might not be able to escape.
"besides!"
The sea surface churned up and down in an instant, and the yellow eyes stood out among the black eyes.
"I'm going to teach these guys a lesson!"
Zhang Feng suddenly said viciously.
Hill was a little puzzled as to why Zhang Feng had become so tough. Then she suddenly felt her head sink, as if something appeared above her head.
"Hill, help me throw these things into the mouths of those sea beasts!"
Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Hill shook her head slightly, and found several things like oil barrels falling from above her head.
There was no time to think about where Zhang Feng got these things from. Hill flapped his wings, and a gust of wind blew, and the oil drums were immediately blown towards the sea beasts on the sea.
Seeing something flying over, several sea beasts subconsciously opened their mouths wide and swallowed the iron barrels in one gulp.
Seeing the sea beast swallowing the iron bucket, Zhang Feng muttered silently:
"Three, two, one..."
Boom! Boom! Boom! Loud noises came from the mouths of the sea beasts, accompanied by flames.
The sea beasts suddenly opened their mouths in pain, and their mouths had turned into a sea of fire! "Oh my god, they couldn't even be killed by the explosion!"
Zhang Feng felt that he had overestimated the sea beast's defense, but he did not expect that its defense was still so strong, even in its mouth.
This is a homemade bomb he made. Since it contains a lot of explosives and gasoline, it is very powerful and even causes secondary burn damage after the explosion.
But unexpectedly, not only could the sea beasts not be killed, but even their jaws could not be blown off.
Although it seems that the sea beasts that ate the bombs were injured, as long as they are not dead, their combat effectiveness is still very terrifying.
"Run away!"
Seeing that the attack did not have the expected effect, Zhang Feng naturally told Hill to escape quickly.
Hill had no intention of fighting. Flames appeared on her body and she flapped her huge wings. Suddenly, a trail of fire appeared in the sky.
Although he was carrying the corpse of a sea beast, Hill's speed was not affected much.
Although Zhang Feng’s bomb attack just now failed to kill the sea beasts, it still caused them to panic and hindered their attack rhythm. Not long after, Hill shook off this group of sea beasts.
"The sea beast retreated."
Hill said after looking back.
"Huh, let's hurry back to Red Leaf City!"
There is a place in Hongye City where Zhang Feng conducts experiments. Although this sea beast is huge, there is still a place to put it.
"good."
Hill was flying at an extremely fast speed. While Zhang Feng was still observing the sea beast, the lights of Hongye City were already in sight.
"Go to the small town next door and leave the sea beast's body there."
Zhang Feng pointed to a place and said.
"good."
After a long period of development, there is more than one Hongye City shining in the Far North, and many cities around it have also developed well. However, they are still far behind Hongye City. They are all vassals of Hongye City, with Hongye City as the main one.
Zhang Feng was referring to one of the cities, a factory city specially built by Zhang Feng, called Steel City. Just like the new city of Danga Kingdom, it was a place that provided production capacity for Hongye City and even the entire Buck Kingdom.
There is enough space here to store the corpses of sea beasts, and there are also various tools that can be used for dissection and research.
Although it was night, the steel city was still brightly lit. Various machines were working day and night, and parts were produced overnight.
However, there were not many people at night. Zhang Feng had greeted Caroline in advance, and the few workers who worked the night shift had also gone home to sleep.
After successfully putting away the sea beast's corpse, Hill regained his human form.
Looking at Hill's slightly pale face, Zhang Feng knew that Hill was too tired today. He said distressedly, "Hill, I asked Caroline to prepare a meal for you. You should go eat first. We can talk about the sea beast's corpse tomorrow."
"good!"
When he heard about eating, Hill's eyes lit up and he disappeared in a flash.
"Master Zhang Feng, is this a sea beast? It's so scary..."
When Caroline saw the corpse of the sea monster, she was shocked. This huge and hideous corpse looked too scary.
"Alas, I don't know if these sea beasts will come ashore. If they can, this will be an unprecedented sea beast crisis..."
Zhang Feng said with a frown.
If these sea beasts cannot come ashore, then until they find a solution, the worst that can happen is that they just don't go to the beach. Although hiding is not the best solution, it is undoubtedly the most effective one at the moment.
But if the sea beasts can come ashore, it will be different. Their continent is so small and is surrounded by the sea on three sides. There is nowhere to hide. They can't go to the Orc continent, after all, there are so many people.
With Zhang Feng's current position, it is impossible for him to only consider himself. So many people choose to follow him, he cannot ignore their lives and deaths.
Seeing the worry on Zhang Feng's face, Caroline gently hugged Zhang Feng from behind and said softly:
"Master Zhang Feng, don't worry too much. I believe we will always find a solution! Don't think about these unhappy things for now. I have good news for you. Today I saw statistics that the number of newborns in our Buck Kingdom this year is more than five times that of last year. This is the largest increase in newborns in hundreds of years! It is estimated that it won't be long before our population will usher in the kind of explosive growth you mentioned. By then, there will be strength in numbers, and any problem can be solved!"
After hearing Caroline's words, Zhang Feng's attention was indeed diverted.
"Oh? There are so many newborns! Not bad! It seems that the policy of encouraging childbirth has begun to show results. We need to increase our efforts. When our population is about the same as that of the Orc Continent, then our Buck Kingdom will be truly powerful!"
