At first, there was only a faint white veil floating on the sea, but almost in the blink of an eye, the fog became like sticky milk, quickly swallowing up the light, sound and vision!
“Woo—”
The sea breeze seemed to carry a kind of whimpering, blowing on people's faces, bringing a cold and damp chill.
"Fog! It's heavy fog!"
"What happened? It was fine just now!"
"I can't see! I can't see anything!!"
Panic spread like a plague among the few remaining rafts.
The survivors who were just feeling grateful for surviving the disaster now had only despair on their faces.
The thick fog that makes one unable to see one’s hand in front of one’s face makes people feel more helpless and frightened than the previous mutated barnacles!
"It's completely over now..." someone wailed, "In this fog, let alone finding our way, we can't even see the reefs ahead! We're doomed!"
At this moment, the man with high cheekbones seemed to have found an outlet and pointed the finger at Lu Ye again.
"It's all your fault! You just burned so much oil! The flames shot up into the sky! It must have attracted some weird creature out at sea! It's you who set the fire and caused this fog! You're the one who killed us!!"
This illogical outburst of anger unexpectedly gained the support of some people who were also in despair.
"Yes! It must be him!"
"If he hadn't set that fire..."
Lu Ye stood at the bow, feeling the cold mist brushing against his cheeks, and his eyes suddenly became sharp as he listened to those stupid accusations.
Noisy!
He didn't even bother to say a word and just turned around and shouted to Su Baiyue beside him.
"Su Baiyue, load the port side gun number one! Fire it next to the raft that's making the loudest noise!"
"Yes!" Su Baiyue did not hesitate at all. He opened the breech block with swift movements, stuffed a rough but heavy homemade shell into it, and then quickly adjusted the muzzle angle.
"boom!!!"
A deafening roar suddenly tore through the silent fog!
The orange-red flames flashed suddenly in the thick fog. Although they were instantly engulfed by the endless white, the violent shock waves and the sound waves that seemed to tear the eardrums apart actually swept across the sea area!
The shell fell into the sea not far from the raft of the man with high cheekbones, stirring up a towering column of water and huge waves, almost overturning the broken raft!
There was only deathly silence on the sea.
The fog was still thick, but the survivors didn't even dare to breathe.
All I could hear was my own violent heartbeat and the uncontrollable chattering of my teeth.
Large weapons!
This seemingly young young man actually possessed such a terrifying weapon in such a short period of time!
Those survivors who were complaining just now are now regretting their decision.
How could they forget that this man was not a soft-hearted person. He could use fire to drive away sea monsters without hesitation, watch others fall into the water without blinking, and naturally he could use cannonballs to shut them up without hesitation!
The "companions" who had previously blamed Xiao Yiyi together with the man with high cheekbones, and later joined in blaming Lu Ye, kicked the still dazed man with high cheekbones out without hesitation, with an extremely flattering smile on their faces.
"Lu...Boss Lu! It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"
"He's talking nonsense! We...we were all bewitched by him!"
"You are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with him! Please be merciful and spare us this time!"
The man with high cheekbones was pushed out, terrified out of his wits. He fell to his knees on the shaking raft and kowtowed desperately towards the fishing boat.
"Grandpa Lu! Ancestor Lu! I was wrong! I was so mean! I'm not a human! Please spare my life! I won't dare to do that again!"
Lu Ye watched this scene coldly, finding it both ridiculous and pathetic.
He pulled the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of cold sarcasm.
"I want his life?"
The sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone, carrying a heart-pounding chill.
"What use is his worthless life to me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone shuddered.
At this moment, Xiao Yiyi, who had been quietly standing by, timidly but appropriately whispered, "Brother Lu... perhaps they can come up with something more useful... to apologize?"
The survivors who pushed people out felt like they had grabbed a life-saving straw, and their eyes lit up instantly!
Yes! Apologize! Supplies!
"Yes, yes, yes! Boss Lu! We have supplies!"
"I have some compressed biscuits here! And half a pot of clean water!"
"I have fishing line and hooks here!"
"I have flint and steel!"
The man with high cheekbones who was pushed out also reacted. He quickly took out a waterproof bag from his arms and raised it tremblingly.
"I have a few iron ingots I found earlier! And a small bag of gunpowder! They're all for you! I just ask you to calm the fire!"
Those survivors who were rescued by Lu Ye before but failed to get on the ship and just watched silently.
At this moment, he hurried to show off the only things he had left that he could show off.
Lu Ye was too lazy to look at those people again.
"Just collect whatever you can use. Don't let them play tricks on you."
"I understand." Su Baiyue nodded, swept his sharp eyes over the rafts, and began to direct them to carefully pass the supplies over.
Lu Ye turned around, ignoring the farce on the deck, and walked straight to the cabin.
The thick fog still permeated the air, and although it temporarily frightened the survivors, the real threat came from the unknown environment and hidden dangers.
