Chapter 969 A good start!
This beard is conservatively estimated to be five or six meters long and very flexible.
Previously, people saw that when the boat capsized, some people escaped the attack of the monster fish's big mouth and fell into the sea. They thought these people would be rescued, and if they were lucky, they could swim to the Hope and perhaps have a chance to survive.
But later, two large tentacles appeared on the water surface, as if they had eyes. They scooped up the fish caught in the net from the sea and threw them into their mouths!
It turned out to be the fish's whiskers!
The fish's back is covered in sharp, long spines, standing upright like bayonets, each several meters long. If someone landed on one of them, they'd be ripped open instantly.
…
"Fuck! This sea monster is so huge! This is the first time I've seen such a big sea monster!"
"Here it comes! It's swimming towards our Hope! The spines on its back can split our Hope in two!"
"This fish's tail looks very powerful. It might even be able to capsize our boat with one blow..."
"Impossible! The bottom of the Hope is made of pure iron. Even a blade as sharp as mud can't cut through it. Its spines may not be able to split it. Its tail is huge, but our Hope is not small either, it's also tens of meters long. This sea monster is only slightly bigger than our Hope, but not much bigger. We have so many experts on our Hope, maybe it will die before it even gets close!"
…
Some people are afraid, some are encouraging each other. Now it has come to this point, there is no point in being afraid.
Even such a smart person cannot just keep criticizing others, but should also try to encourage morale appropriately.
Captain Nix was already on the deck at this time.
On the deck now, all the irrelevant people have already left.
He saw the huge sea beast and his eyes became serious.
"Everyone, be careful! Set up defenses on the sea! Cast your nets! Get your harpoons ready!"
When the Hope is sailing on the sea, it is inevitable that it will encounter creatures like sea beasts, so it is equipped with basic defensive and impact equipment.
The sailors were on full alert.
They formed up in formation around the Hope Deck, ready to cast the heavy iron net.
Liao Jiu and his team of warriors also each had a small team, armed with weapons, ready to go into the sea at any time to fight a desperate battle with the sea beasts.
The sea monster seemed to sense the Hope's fighting spirit, which aroused its competitive spirit!
A hint of coldness appeared in the stiff eyes as white as dead fish!
With a sway of the waves, it suddenly disappeared under the sea.
For a long while, there was no movement on the sea.
Some people stared with wide eyes but couldn't find their target, while others wondered if they were scared away by the people on the Hope?
"What kind of sea beast is this? It looks ferocious, but it's nothing more than this!!"
These are ordinary people. They cannot see what is happening on the seabed, so they underestimate the enemy.
Jiang Lianzhu and other strong men on the boat could clearly see the track of the sea beast.
This sea monster dived hundreds of meters, and it wanted to attack the Hope from the bottom of the sea!
Nix shouted, "Here it comes! It's fifty meters away from us underwater. Listen to my command and be ready to drop the net at any time!"
"yes!"
Although Knicks's own cultivation level was not high, he could still see the trajectory of the sea beasts. This was most likely because of Ugly Slave.
"Alright! They're getting closer! That bastard is trying to sneak attack our boat, let's drop the net!"
A huge iron net with mechanisms was thrown into the sea.
The sea water was churning, and the sea beast below had indeed arrived.
It was stopped by a huge net.
"I've caught it, I've caught one of its spines...Ah!" a sailor shouted with joy.
Before he could finish shouting, he let out a scream.
He was dragged into the sea by a sea monster.
Then, a soft tendril wrapped him up, and in an instant, the sea became calm and there was nothing left.
Everything happened in a flash, and everyone became even more solemn.
The sea monster was temporarily trapped in the net, but the sea monster was huge, so only a small part of it was trapped, and most of it was still able to move. Being able to move meant danger.
The sailors on the deck became more cautious after losing a comrade.
They formed a small encirclement by working together in formation.
"Captain! The net has captured the sea monster's head and three spines..."
Nix said calmly, "Alright! Warriors and guards, go down to the sea and kill the sea monsters in the encirclement. The people on the boat will cover you..."
Liao Jiu and his men had already taken out their weapons. Each of them had a thick hemp rope tied around their waist, and they used the ropes to fight in the sea.
Chop a few times from below, and if that doesn't work, use the rope to climb onto the boat.
Liao Jiu is the first to go up!
He is a warrior of the seventh realm and takes the lead.
The weapon in his hand was a cold weapon that could cut through iron like mud, taken from the arsenal given to him by Jiang Lianzhu.
Two double bayonets!
As soon as he went down, he hit the sea beast on the head twice, and blood came out immediately.
The sea monster felt pain and spurted out two streams of water from its nose. They were fishy and smelly, and almost hit Liao Jiu. Liao Jiu was agile and used the rope to swing away.
But his achievements are obvious to all.
A good start!
Very morale-boosting!
The other warriors were also very excited and followed suit. They all rushed forward and threw everything they could at the sea beast.
Unfortunately, some people’s swords were not very sharp and could not even break through the sea beast’s scale defenses.
Like Liao Jiu, only a few people can break the defense of sea beasts. One reason is that their swords are not good enough, and the other is that they do not have enough strength.
When the sea monster saw so many people attacking it together, it became furious and fought back with its two whiskers flying back and forth.
Liao Jiu had long been on guard against its big beard. He made an agreement with another captain of the seventh level of martial arts. Each of them would watch one of its beards. As soon as the beard tried to wrap around others, they would cut off the very bottom. There were no scales on the beard, but it was flexible. If they could cut off its beard, it would be a great achievement!
Unfortunately, the sea monster has a very high hatred towards Liao Jiu, and basically does not give Liao Jiu a chance to attack again.
The beard basically only touched Liao Jiu.
He never found an opportunity to take action.
Others let them use all kinds of weapons, and at most they would only suffer minor injuries.
Something like falling scales.
Its beard was specially used to deal with Liao Jiu. Its body struggled violently. The sailors holding the net on the Hope gradually lost their balance and fell into the sea. Some of them tied the net tying lines to the deck of the Hope.
As the sea monster struggled violently, the entire Hope was pulled along.
It started to bump.
The VIPs on the ship and the poor people in the cabins all felt the violent shaking and screamed in fear.
"Ugly slave! Get the cannons! I'll beat that bastard to death!"
Chou Nu found a cannon from somewhere and carried it with one hand, looking relaxed. He placed it on the deck in front of Nix, and the deck creaked under the pressure! The entire Hope trembled, and everyone realized the heavy weight of this cannon.
Knicks set up the cannon and fired at the sea monster!
With one shot, the sea monster was hit on its gills, causing it to bleed profusely!
