Chapter 290 Rampage

Standing in the command room, Dugu Junjie followed Zhang Hao's direction and saw a huge octopus. This octopus only had four complete but mottled tentacles, and four broken tentacles, which was shocking.

At this time, the octopus was propping up on the rock with three tentacles, and the other tentacles pointed at the battleship Zhiyuan, and there was a faint whistling sound.

Behind the Black Scale Island, in the surrounding waters, monsters like waves began to appear. These sea monsters are densely packed, almost covering the islands and covering the sea.

In comparison, the battleship Zhiyuan was pitifully tiny.

Even Liu Dingshan, Daoist Ming Xu, and Chen Yansong couldn't help but gasp at this moment. Facing this overwhelming monster, one can feel one's insignificance. After all, this is the ocean, the domain of ocean monsters.

Now is not the time to hesitate, Zhang Hao narrowed his eyes, and immediately shouted to Dugu Junjie: "Catch the thief first, capture the king, and focus on attacking the octopus monster. In addition, try to chop up the tentacles of the octopus monster and throw them into the surrounding ocean , may have unexpected effects.”

Zhang Hao didn't give the order directly, but told Dugu Junjie, and Dugu Junjie gave the order.

Professional things are left to professional people. Zhang Hao is very self-aware. He doesn't need to be able to command battles. He only needs to be able to command Dugu Junjie. In one sentence, this is called "good generals"!

Dugu Junjie ordered decisively, and the artillery concentrated fire on the octopus monster immediately. The octopus panicked suddenly - the artillery attack a few days ago obviously scared him. It's just that it is not reconciled, and kills back again.

However, if Zhang Hao and others can read the mind of the octopus monster, they will understand that it not only has revenge, but also greed. For sea monsters, that giant steel ship is a huge treasure.

There are many metal deposits in the sea, but there are not many metals that can be used. And the creativity of monsters and so on really needs to be strengthened. Therefore, they are extremely greedy for metal objects of human beings.

Especially in the battle a few days ago, the Octopus also collected a lot of shrapnel. Those shrapnel are all steel. Although the quality of the steel used to make the cannonballs is very poor, and the material looks like pig iron; but it is steel after all, enough to cut through the bone armor of a monster in the transformation stage!

So, the octopus monster thought, these fragments are so powerful, what if he can take all the battleships for himself? Are you excited?

After lurking for so many days and having wounds for several days, the octopus monster finally made a move.

Not only that, there was sea water tumbling behind the battleship, and a giant snake with a length of 100 meters surrounded by black water slowly emerged. The giant snake looked at the battleship Zhiyuan, full of greed.

The 100-meter giant snake stirred up half of the sea water, and the Zhiyuan was bumping in the sea water.

Zhang Hao finally opened his mouth to ask for help from the three God Transformation Stages, and dragged the giant snake back.

Daoist Mingxu let out a long cry, "I'll go first, and ask two fellow Taoists to help sweep the formation. I just broke through the stage of transforming gods, and my forehand is itching!"

At the same time as the artillery roared, Daoist Mingxu had already flew up, towards the giant snake. From far away, he played a piece of talisman, and the talisman turned into a giant net covering the sky, covering the giant snake with his head covered.

The giant snake roared, and the sea water with a radius of hundreds of meters rushed into the sky, and the majestic waves even sent the giant net that fell from the sky flying away!

Under the control of the giant snake, the waves rolled towards Ming Xu, and the sea snake also rushed towards Mingxu riding the waves with a black light hovering in its mouth.

Taoist Master Mingxu dodged the waves and struck the giant snake with a sword;

And a black, torrent-like attack also spewed out from the giant snake's mouth. The attack was cut off by the sword light, but it also blocked the sword light, and the sword light quickly dissipated. At this time, the giant snake suddenly swung its tail, and the tail was like lightning, smashing towards Taoist Master Mingxu with a roar.

This attack was too swift and violent, by the time Daoist Mingxu reacted, it was already too late. He could only let out a long roar, and a shield appeared in his hand, blocking in front of him.

"Boom..." A roar exploded in the sea, and Taoist Master Ming Xu was blown away like a log. But Taoist Master Ming Xu's shield was not simple, the giant snake's tail was bloody and bloody, blood and broken scales spilled into the sea.

At the same time, on the deck of the Zhiyuan battleship, everyone also scattered a large number of chopped octopus tentacles into the sea.

In the sea, countless sea monsters suddenly went crazy. They no longer attacked warships, but began to compete for the flesh and blood of the monsters in the seawater.

Most marine life has no intelligence, and most of their actions are almost subservient to instinct. When encountering such a coveted 'resource' at this time, one can imagine the madness.

There was only one discordant voice at the scene. Brother Feng Zhi Lingfeng was yelling: "Stop cutting it, it's the flesh and blood of a monster in the transformation stage, it's very valuable!"

On the other side, after Mingxu Daochang flew out, he returned immediately. He quickly mastered the fighting method of the transformation stage, and the sword light in his hand became colder and sharper. The background of the master of the Holy Land is slowly revealed here.

That sharp sword light can easily tear through the giant snake's defense and even attack, Taoist Master Mingxu gradually approached the giant snake. Suddenly, Daoist Mingxu struck out another talisman, this time the talisman instantly turned into a giant net, wrapping the giant snake layer by layer.

The giant snake neighed, rolled on the sea, or dived into the water. But Daoist Ming Xu also rushed into the water and fought under the sea.

About three minutes later, Taoist Master Ming Xu stood on the head of the giant snake, floating on the surface of the sea. From afar, Taoist Master Ming Xu asked Zhang Hao, do you want to kill this giant snake?

On the sea, Daoist Ming Xu did not make any claims.

Looking at the unruly eyes of the giant snake, Zhang Hao smiled: "Master, if you let it go like this now, I'm afraid something will happen again. If you want to beat him up, when will you give in and when will you let him go."

"Haha, I understand!" Daoist Ming Xu suddenly released the giant snake's restraint, stepped the giant snake into the water, and continued to fight. The giant snake had already lost its vigor, and this time it was indeed pressed down and beaten by Daoist Mingxu, and beat it in different ways.

At the same time, the island has been cleaned by artillery several times, and there are bullet craters and broken corpses of monsters all over the place. The monster octopus has rushed into the sea, ready to attack from underwater. But immediately a master dropped bombs from above. These bombs can explode hundreds of meters above sea water.

The underwater explosion was more powerful, and the octopus was forced out of the sea after a while, continuing to be baptized by the artillery.

About ten minutes later, the octopus fled in embarrassment again, and Feng Zhiling happily harvested a huge tentacle again. As for the sea snake who was beaten several times by Daoist Ming Xu, he finally begged for mercy.

"Get out!" Daoist Mingxu kicked it, and flew back to the deck.

The giant ship did not move on, but leaned towards the island.

Zhang Haofei landed on the island, avoided the corpses of the sea monsters, and stood on a commanding height thoughtfully, "The location of this island is in the south of the Canglan Kingdom?"

Dugu Junjie took the chart, pointed to it and said: "The Black Scale Island is not on the chart, but the map found in the Land of Canglan has it.

According to the records, the Black Scale Island has a radius of about 100 kilometers, about 500 kilometers away from Qianlong Harbor, and a thousand kilometers away from the Taotu Island in the south.

To the east of it is the Emerald Sea, and to the west is the Green Sea of ​​Death. But no ship ever came near here.

Here is a very important node. "

Zhang Hao looked around: "Is it possible to occupy this place and treat it as a territory of Qixia Kingdom?"

Dugu Junjie frowned slightly: "I think it will be a bit difficult to gain a foothold here. Surrounded by the green sea of ​​death, it is very dangerous.

According to the information we have collected, the Land of Canglan also wanted to occupy this place, but in the end it was nothing. There is nothing on the island, only rocks. There are lairs of sea monsters everywhere, and there are countless kinds of sea monsters.

Moreover, there are many strange insects lurking on the island, making it difficult for ordinary people to survive. "

Zhang Hao looked around and had to nod. In places that have not been bombed by shells, there are all kinds of weird bugs in the crevices of the rocks. These bugs are not good at first glance.

If you want to occupy this place, you may need to invest a lot of resources. Zhang Hao frowned and calculated for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's not impossible to build a base here. But not now.

Wait for a while, when we have more warships, we will use explosives to flatten the island before building a base.

Once the communication between the inner sea and the outer sea is opened up in the future, the location of Blackscale Island will be very critical. This is simply the throat.

The Land of Canglan doesn't want it, we want it!

Insert the flag of the Qixia Kingdom and the Dayang Group, and engrave the words on the stone: This is the land of the Qixia Kingdom; and it belongs to the Dayang Group. "

"Wait!" Liu Dingshan stepped forward, "What do you mean by that, does this place belong to Qixia Kingdom or Dayang Group?"

Zhang Hao said without blinking: "It belongs to the Dayang Group, and the Dayang Group belongs to the Qixia Kingdom. It is the territory of the Qixia Kingdom, but because it was discovered by our Dayang Group, it is directly under the management of the Dayang Group, no problem." Bar?"

The rules of this world are relatively simple. Zhang Hao's explanation made Liu Dingshan no doubt. What I found belongs to me; it is really good to be able to give Qixia Kingdom a nominal ownership.

While talking, someone had already planted a flag on the island, and took a photo with a specially made high-grade jade slip.

Before departure, Qixia Kingdom and Dayang Group had already made flags.

The flag of the Qixia Kingdom is magnificent, and a golden phoenix is ​​flying high in the purple clouds; the phoenix is ​​graceful and noble, but has a certain indescribable arrogance, and the slight bowing of its head is like a god looking down on the earth from the sky .

The flag of Dayang Group is a sea eagle. A black sea eagle soars in the blue sea and blue sky.

The Qixia Kingdom's flag was planted on a hill, while the Dayang Group's flag was slightly lower, but they stood side by side.

The battleship moved on. There are still a large number of monsters on the sea, but now most of these monsters are vying for the 'octopus slices'.

The warship ran over directly, knocking over countless sea monsters along the way; it caused great confusion. But the battleship did not stop, but continued to accelerate. Behind the propeller, you can even see blood flowing, which is some unlucky eggs that have been ground.

About twenty minutes later, the battleship completed its acceleration, completely got rid of the siege of the sea monsters, and continued sailing eastward. And many sea monsters did not dare to attack.

After crossing Heilin Island, Zhang Hao took a simple map to study: "Although Heilin Island is the junction of the inner and outer seas, it is a transitional zone thousands of miles to the east, and there are very few ships in this transitional zone. Come here, there are quite a few sea monsters."

"So, no one came to snatch Heiscale Island!" Dugu Junjie mocked Zhang Hao's 'greed' a little bit.

"No one is robbing it now, but it doesn't mean there won't be any in the future. It's better to prepare early. Moreover, Blackscale Island has a radius of a hundred miles, which is enough to build a large base.

In the future, I hope to build Heilin Island into a relay world in the ocean, which will connect the inner and outer seas, connect the southern continent of giant soil and the northern continent of fertile soil, and become the throat of the sea.

This island must be under control. "

"Okay, okay, you must control it in your hands." Dugu Junjie perfunctory casually. Obviously, this 'indigenous' doesn't quite understand the meaning of Blackscale Island.

Zhang Hao shook his head and stopped explaining. Then I asked about the reserve of spirit stones. Now the power of the ship is spirit stones. From the time of departure to the present, they have sailed more than 8,000 kilometers and have just arrived at Blackscale Island.

This voyage has far exceeded expectations, and has not encountered any merchant ships at sea so far. If he wanted to reach the sea area of ​​Langya Kingdom, he would have to travel at least a thousand kilometers.

Dugu Junjie smiled: "Don't worry about this, we prepared four times as many spirit stones at that time. Now about 30% are consumed. We can return.

Besides, even if there is no spirit stone in the end, isn't there still a period of transformation, they have enough ability to push the boat and run. "

"I'm afraid that at that time, you and I will be beaten until our parents don't know each other..."

…………

The battleship roared, tore through the sea, and headed straight to the east. The experienced sailors hired finally managed to stay on track, and although it was a bit difficult, they still found their way at sea.

The main tool they use to tell the direction is the compass, or: the compass.

Until the evening of the fourth day, the sailors on the watchtower shouted: "Ship! Ship, I saw a ship in front of me. It is a fleet of three big ships. Wow, their ship... seems to be very big!" "

Everyone immediately flew up to observe, and Zhang Hao saw the distant scene clearly through the small spell. At a distance of about ten kilometers, according to the proportion of the figure and the ship, the three ships are estimated to be 150 meters long; the sails on them are full, and they are sailing north.

There was also a huge flag fluttering in the wind.

Zhang Hao was overjoyed, but calmly ordered: "Rush over, don't say hello. It would be best if you can just rush over in front of these three ships."

"Why?" Daoist Mingxu was curious. We finally met a ship, so we have to go up and make a deal; even if we can’t reach a deal, it’s okay to ask, right?

But Zhang Hao smiled: "We took the initiative to ask, what a price drop. We want to show our muscles now! Wait for others to ask!

Dugu, rush over! "

Dugu Junjie will not doubt Zhang Hao's business acumen. Immediately ordered: "Accelerate, accelerate, 120% load, rush over!"

The speed of the battleship increased suddenly, from the previous cruising speed of 100 kilometers to 110 kilometers; but the distance was too close, the battleship had just approached 110 kilometers, and it had already come to the front of the three big ships.

Looking closely, Zhang Hao couldn't help but marvel: what a big building boat!

These wooden boats painted brown and black can be seen in pieces of huge planks. The structure of the wooden boats is relatively bloated, about 160 meters long and almost 60 meters wide. The hull looks a bit 'fat'.

There is actually a five-story building on the deck, which is less than 15 meters in height; it is a bit mottled, but it is hard to hide its exquisiteness.

The sail adopts a complicated three-masted sail structure, and the huge sails on three sides are made into a semicircle by the wind, but the sailing speed of the ship is only about 15 kilometers.

These ships also have a relatively deep draft, and it can be seen that they are fully loaded with cargo. The surrounding sea water was pushed away layer by layer.

Zhang Hao estimated that the overall weight of these wooden boats was probably over 10,000 tons. Although these wooden boats are bulkier, they are mature in technology and have a considerable load capacity.

But now that these three ships are on, many people are working overtime, curiously watching the battleship Zhiyuan speeding past. Looking from a distance, the side of the ship is full of heads, slowly swinging with the Zhiyuan.

Compared to their wooden boats that were only about 15 kilometers away, the warship Zhiyuan was flying without sails.

At the same time, on the ship's side of the Zhiyuan battleship, some sailors who had nothing to do yelled strangely and greeted the three sailing ships; but soon, the Zhiyuan quickly went away and maintained a speed of 110 kilometers per hour.

The people on the Zhiyuan could not help but be excited. The first time they entered the sea, they crossed the green sea of ​​death, and the speed far exceeded those legendary ships.

The huge ship brought up the waves, and the three wooden boats that hit the impact continued to shake.

On a large wooden boat, a young man in the Nascent Soul stage frowned slightly: "It's a strange boat. The vertical sides of the boat and the dots on the hull are all big nails, right? So many nails are used? This boat feels ... a bit ugly.

Also, this ship doesn't have sails, so it can't be powered entirely by spells, right? How many spirit stones will be consumed? "

A middle-aged man next to him shook his head slightly, with surprise and doubt in his tone: "Master, I think this boat... seems to be made of iron!"

"Tie?" The young master muttered, and suddenly said, "Uncle Feng, the sailors greeted them just now, and they don't look like any bad guys. Let's chase after them and ask?"

"Master, I think we shouldn't be the first to go up to say hello to this kind of unknown person. Follow behind and have a look."

The young master snorted: "Our boat... can't catch up!"

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Send a boat, drive it with spells, and follow them to see. Also, the fleet follows behind! If there is an opportunity to cooperate, we, the Seven Stars Firm, must seize it."

"Isn't it docking?"

The middle-aged man shook his head: "We've been sailing at sea for half a year, not a few days away. Let's go."

The middle-aged young master, together with a few Nascent Soul stage guards, urged a boat about ten meters long to chase behind the Zhiyuan, but did not approach.

The Zhiyuan continued to rampage, heading east, and then going forward, and before I knew it, it was already the second day. And there are more and more small boats following the Zhiyuan.

At noon, a sailor suddenly shouted: "More than 30 warships appear in front, and the flags seem to be the sailors of the Kingdom of Langya!"

(According to research, Zheng He's treasure ships on his voyages had a displacement of about 20,000 tons.)
