Chapter 1267
Qingu subconsciously swallowed her saliva. She has experienced so many small worlds, and she has been on various boats before, from giant ships to small sampans. She has seen some strong winds and waves.
However, compared with the present one, those storms and waves are like gentle wind and light rain.
The light on the energy cover of the hull flickered, and the sound of "squeaking" current and "creaking" torque sounded from time to time, and it was already difficult to resist the external force.
The energy card slot uses high-grade spirit stones, but because of the formation itself, it cannot transport enough energy to compete with external forces in a short period of time.
If the barrier is broken by outside forces, the consequences will be disastrous.
At this time, more than 20 monks in the alchemy stage set up the formation, and at the same time, they worked hard to input the spiritual power in their bodies into the formation, barely maintaining the energy shield.
In this case, of course, it is impossible to separate the energy to offset the external impact force.
The person in charge of the ship was an old man with a pale face, in the late Yuan Ying period, with a bone age of six or seven hundred years old, probably because he knew that he was not destined for the Dao, so he came to the ship to preside over the affairs.
He was sitting cross-legged in the formation at the moment, using his own spiritual power to prop up the formation from being broken by external forces, while shouting to everyone.
Don't worry everyone, as long as everyone gets on this ship, they will do everything in their power to escort everyone ashore safely.
This is the contract spirit of a cultivator. However, the situation in front of him is too dangerous, and no one will sit there with peace of mind and watch others use up all their spiritual power.
The point is that even if they spared all their cultivation, they might not be able to survive this catastrophe.
So one person walked up to one of the ship protectors, sat down cross-legged, formed the same handprint and input his spiritual power into the energy shield.
More practitioners came to the Dharma protector, and for a while, monks were sitting cross-legged around the splint.
Everyone gathered firewood and made great flames. With this force added, the energy shield of the ship finally stabilized.
There are more than two hundred monks, and at this time they also expressed that they will step up when the first wave of monks are tired.
Qingu mixed among a group of monks, not conspicuous or aggressive, but not slowing down.
She really wants to do her part, but at this moment, she cannot solve the problem by contributing a little spiritual power, but must find the instigator of this incident.
According to the information from Xiao Z and Zhizhi, the catastrophe of their ship is not an ordinary storm, not a whirlwind of a storm, but being targeted by monsters in the sea.
Just like the wild beasts besieging the caravan because of the cubs of the spirit beast, this monster also came because of the sea monster heart in Zhong Haotian.
If Zhong Haotian is not found out and his secrets are exposed, everyone will become cannon fodder—including herself.
Qingu has been checking the monks around him. After all, over the past ten years, his body and appearance have changed.
Maybe the other party can also change appearance, so Qingu let the two cubs turn on the "bubble" mode to see the other party's attribute value, even if they want to hide it, they can't hide it.
However, the bubbles can only be displayed based on the collected information, such as inferences based on the opponent's clothing, cultivation, skills, language, actions, etc. It will take some time.
It seems that it took a lot of time for the nearly 200 monks on the deck, but there is no Zhong Haotian here.
He's not on deck. Is it in the cabin? Still in the restaurant? hall? Or somewhere on the ship?
Common sense, mobilizing the power of the masses at this time is undoubtedly the fastest way to find Zhong Haotian.
But it is also full of more variables.
First of all, everyone is now focusing on how to deal with the force of the storm and huge waves outside the boat, and how to stabilize the hull, but she is unique, saying that she is looking for someone with the heart of a sea monster.
Do people take her word for it? Ten thousand steps back, even if people believe it, they believe that this incident is not an ordinary sea storm or ordinary sea monsters, but a sea monster deliberately sabotaging it.
Then how should she explain to everyone how she knew Zhong Haotian? How do you know that he will have the heart of a siren? What is the relationship between her and Zhong Haotian?
... Judge others by oneself, if someone suddenly stood in front of me and said that such-and-such person has something that attracts powerful sea monsters, I would also have these questions.
Well, even if all these problems were solved and everyone believed her, would it be possible to find Zhong Haotian smoothly?
I'm afraid they will startle the snake instead. Since the other party wants to hide behind and use the entire ship as bait, they will definitely use invisibility magic talismans to hide themselves deeper before the matter is settled, making it even more difficult to find out.
But now, Zhong Haotian caused such a big commotion, he might still be hiding in a corner secretly poking complacently.
Unexpectedly, he would never have thought that he would be on this ship—in the plot deduced by Xiao Z before, he only said: If you don't stop it, in the end, when things get out of hand, you will be exposed in front of Zhong Haotian, and you will become a The opponent slapped the face as cannon fodder for b.
So it is absolutely impossible for the other party to know that she is on board at this time. To be precise, "the enemy is in the dark, and I am also in the dark."
She still has the system in hand, so there's no reason she can't handle the other party.
Qingu continued to secretly search for Zhong Haotian through the bubbles, while making active preparations with most of the monks.
She finally realized the true meaning of "everyone is in the same boat". At this time, everyone's lives were twisted on the same rope, and she showed unprecedented unity at this time.
The old man in charge was very pleased to see this, and promised everyone again: If everyone can help each other through this disaster, they will report to the owner of Xingyun Island and double compensate everyone.
When everyone heard it, they became even more excited.
Xingyun Island is the place where practitioners from two continents meet, they exchange what they need, and there is a very powerful force behind it.
At this time, it was the most correct choice to make in a crisis, but to be recognized and appreciated by the other party undoubtedly made everyone more gratified.
With the joint efforts of the formation and hundreds of practitioners, the hull generates a powerful force to compete with the force from the outside world.
Gradually, the turbulence of the hull became smaller and gradually returned to the sea.
But before people had time to rejoice in success, the whole ship fell into extreme fear.
People stared blankly at the slow-moving black tentacles covered by the transparent energy cover—the sea monster! It's a siren!
The sea monster finally revealed its tip of the iceberg, and in Qingu's eyes, it was like an octopus magnified hundreds of thousands of times.
It was just one of its tentacles that entangled the ship, dragging it to toss in the sea. The whole ship almost fell apart.
Now, the giant tentacle felt the resistance of the ship, so instead of dragging it into the sea, it tightened directly, and there was a painful "squeak" sound from the ship.
The suction cups on the tentacles are like a big roulette full of helical gears, tightly adsorbed on the energy cover, constantly attacking and consuming the energy of the energy cover.
