Chapter 172 The First Fight
At first, the wind on the sea was only very light, which relieved a lot of the heat on everyone's faces.
As the warship approached the shore, the sea breeze gradually grew stronger, and in an instant it blew everyone present off their feet.
Xi Shang and others immediately looked for shelter from the wind and hid behind trees. All the wooden magazines were loaded, and the leader ordered those patrolling the beach to withdraw quickly.
With five hundred meters left, the warship slowed down as the ubiquitous wind hindered its pace.
The wind howled violently, and all unsecured objects were blown into the sky; even the extended artillery batteries became loose.
There was a creaking sound on the warship. Shen Peirong asked Gong Jun and others to return to the first floor of the cabin and report the situation at the bottom of the cabin at any time.
Gong Jun knew that he could not help much here, so he could only cover his hat that was about to be blown away and quickly return to the control room on the first floor with his subordinates.
After monitoring and ensuring that there were no problems with the bottom layer for the time being, the warship accelerated again against the strong wind.
Chi Yan and Taixuzi, with the help of other families, steadied themselves, hid behind a group of human bodies and stones, and threw several talismans forward.
The talisman paper floated against the wind, and the wind sweeping across the sea, the two wind currents confronted each other and tore a hole from the inside.
The slow-moving warship suddenly felt a little resistance in front, and immediately took this opportunity to advance dozens of meters.
But after advancing a few dozen meters, the warship stopped moving again. This time everyone felt a weight behind them, as if something was grabbing them in the sea and preventing the warship from moving forward.
Shen Peirong thought to herself that this was not good. The water was the natural battlefield of dragons. If they stayed here, they obviously could not exert much power. Everyone had to go ashore.
Shen Peirong looked left and right, stretched out a hand to feel the resistance of the wind from behind, and realized that the wind was strongest at the rear of the ship. She immediately called on everyone to attack the rear.
"Commander Gong, once we attack you guys, increase your speed to the maximum. We want to reach the shore in the shortest possible time."
"clear."
Gong Jun replied in the headset.
Some people were left in the front to fight the wind, while the rest walked hard behind the stern against the wind.
Waves appeared on the sea surface here, and vaguely, everyone seemed to see the dragon towing the warship through the sea surface.
Shen Lingyu suddenly shook open his sword, stared straight at the sea and gathered strength in his hands.
An extremely weak airflow emanated from the inside of her arm, flowing along her body and merging into the surface of the sword blade.
A flash of light flashed across the tip of the sword blade, and Shen Lingyu raised her hand with a sword flower, illuminating her eyes with her sharp gaze.
The silver sword was swung out, sword light flashed, and the sea water was immediately split open, with two water columns jumping up.
Before the sea water closed up, Wenren Zhen could see clearly what was blocking them in the sea.
There was a long string of sharks strung together by seaweed, each connected head to tail, and there was an unknown number of schools of fish being dragged under the bottom of the warship hanging on it.
Wen Renzhen blew the whistle quickly, and the sound waves fell into the sea water and poured into the shark's red eyes.
"I command you to let go."
The shark looked at Wen Renzhen on the boat from afar through the water curtain, with two commands fighting in its mind. In the end, Wen Renzhen's command was superior.
The shark in the front opened its mouth and swung its tail to pull away the companion that was biting its tail, then swam away quickly with several holes punctured in its body.
The sound waves only affected the sharks in the front. The fish behind were too far back and their sight was blocked, so Wen Renzhen failed to control the fish later.
In just a few seconds, she was exhausted, her eyes were in great pain, and she was dragged to the back by Rongrong to stand.
However, even if it was only a few seconds, the resistance of the warship was reduced, and Gong Jun seized the opportunity and ordered the warship to move forward more than 100 meters.
After the warship left, the fish at the back reacted and continued to rush forward, biting the seaweed and trying to get closer again.
The people on the warship would never give them another chance to succeed.
Shen Peirong and Shen Lingyu were responsible for separating the sea water, while the others were responsible for catching and killing the animals that came up.
Throwing weapons suitable for long-range combat into the water can catch a shark with one claw. Meteor hammers, grappling hooks, throwing knives, and flying needles can be shot into the sea water together to penetrate the shark's body and crush its internal organs.
Suitable for close combat, they switched to fire attacks, with countless bullets fired into the water, and rocket launchers followed up.
Sharks were blown apart, and the bloody flesh and blood dyed the sea red.
A rotten stench emanated from the bottom of the sea, and everyone almost vomited when they smelled it.
I don't know how many bullets and weapons were used up, and everyone's hands were sore from chopping, but finally we saw the warship was about to dock.
At this time, the resistance was getting smaller and smaller. Behind the shark was a school of fish dragging seaweed. As soon as they appeared, they were killed instantly.
The wind on the sea surface also disappeared as the warship approached the shore. After the warship docked, ordinary people left first, and finally the people from the Special Intelligence Agency jumped off the warship with their weapons.
This difficult return journey is not over until the last person steps on the ground.
Several warships farther away from them returned early. The sea was calm and there was no danger on their side. Only this warship was attacked by a shark.
After waiting on the shore for a while and seeing no sign of a dragon, Shen Peirong took everyone back to the temporary base for a meeting.
Xi Shang's team attended the meeting with several other special forces. Everyone had no time to introduce themselves, so they briefly introduced their identities before getting down to business.
Shen Peirong sat there with a livid face, and on the projector behind her were the photos that she had just hastily taken.
"I didn't see the dragon just now. Through our comparison, we know that the dragon has the ability to control underwater animals."
"The second one, there was a strong wind on the sea on our way back. Maybe Jiao has the ability to control the wind."
"Third, from the information we got before, the dragon's tail or teeth must have great power, otherwise it wouldn't have sunk a ship in such a short time."
The shark appeared on the seabed, the talisman paper fought against the sea breeze, and the initial photo of the ship sinking was projected on the screen.
Led by Xi Shang and other people who had undergone special transformation, they were shocked when they saw the densely packed sharks at the bottom of the sea.
These sharks look small in the photo, but in reality each one is extremely huge.
Even the largest man in the army was not half as big as the shark.
Xi Shang's leader asked, "Director Shen, now that we know the abilities of Jiao, have we found its weaknesses?"
Shen Peirong, who was sitting at the top, shook her head. "I don't know yet. This dragon is very self-aware and cunning. It never showed up from beginning to end. I don't know what its weakness is."
Gong Jun asked anxiously: "What should we do? Are we going to keep waiting for it to show up?"
Waiting is not scary, what is scary is not knowing how long you have to wait.
Moreover, if the dragon is not killed as soon as possible, the nearby cities will face a second threat.
Moreover, the influence of the dragon this time is huge, and the matter will be exposed if we are not careful.
That's why everyone is so anxious and can't wait to go into the sea and kill the dragon.
Shen Peirong pondered for a moment.
"Actually, I do have an idea."
