Chapter 225 Killing Chen Baomu
It was Zhao Feng who made the move. Since the battle began, he and Ge Dalong had been keeping a close eye on Zhang Shi's position, ready to provide him with firepower assistance at any time.
Chen Baomu fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain. Seeing their leader severely injured, his men immediately lost their footing. The soldiers on the island were in high spirits, shouting and fighting the enemy more bravely.
Zhang Shi did not give Chen Baomu any chance to breathe. He stepped forward quickly, holding the old Duan in his hand high, flashing a cold light in the sun, and slashed at Chen Baomu with the determination to kill. Chen Baomu's eyes widened, full of fear and despair. He tried desperately to dodge, but his injured body did not obey.
At this critical moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and blocked the fatal blow for Chen Baomu. It turned out to be Chen Baomu's men. He used his body to protect Chen Baomu, but was also deeply cut by Zhang Shi's knife and died on the spot.
Chen Baomu looked at his confidant who died for him, and his expression was very strange. He was neither angry nor sad or moved, but more of a kind of panic.
"Zhang Shi, you are courting death!"
Chen Baomu endured the pain and struggled to get up from the ground. He held the black dagger tightly in his hand and rushed towards Zhang Shi frantically, muttering: "There is no way out, Zhang Shi, you must die today!"
Zhang Shi snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain. He easily dodged Chen Baomu's attack and kicked Chen Baomu's knee. Chen Baomu's legs softened and he knelt on the ground.
"Your struggle is in vain, Chen Baomu, you asked for all this." Zhang Shi said coldly, and the old Duan in his hand was placed on Chen Baomu's neck.
Chen Baomu looked up at Zhang Shi, his eyes full of hatred, but also a trace of helplessness and despair. "Zhang Shi, do you think you are invincible just because you are the world's number one? Do you think everything will be fine if you kill me? The people behind me will not let you go!" He said viciously.
Zhang Shi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a mocking smile: "So what? I will send you on your way today, and I will deal with the future." After that, he swung the knife in his hand vigorously, and Chen Baomu's head rolled to the ground, and a cavity of hot blood sprayed out, dyeing the surrounding land red.
With the death of Chen Baomu, his fleet completely lost its command, and the soldiers fled in all directions. The soldiers on the island took advantage of the victory and pursued and annihilated the fleeing enemies one by one.
After the battle, Zhang Shi stood on the beach, looking at the sea filled with gunpowder, and his heart was filled with emotion. He began to hesitate whether it was right or wrong to open the island. It is true that the establishment of the sea post brought him a lot of wealth, but it also brought various troubles. After experiencing the Fog City, he only felt exhausted and had no interest in fighting.
Ge Dalong and Zhao Feng limped to his side, tacitly silent, standing under a tree together looking at the blue sea. After a long time, Zhang Shi sighed, opened a private chat and informed Wang Wu's team to come to the island tomorrow, and he had something to discuss with him.
The development of the island still had to go on. Zhang Shi knew that he was not alone. He had brothers and soldiers behind him. For these people, he could not stop.
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from the coast, followed by the second and third.
Zhang Shi looked far away and found that the explosion came from Chen Baomu's fleet. They actually self-destructed at the same time. Zhang Shi was stunned and doubted in his heart, could there be a fish that slipped through the net on the ship?
After a while, the explosion stopped, and all the ships docked on the coast sank. The powerful explosion destroyed many facilities on the dock shore, and even the sea station was affected. Many buildings had cracks, and Zhang Shi had to send people to repair them. The trip back and forth would take a lot of time.
After experiencing this episode, Zhang Shi came to Wu Qing's botanical garden as soon as possible, and personally checked her room. After confirming that there was no abnormality, he called people to seal the room and sent people to guard it day and night. If there was any abnormality, he needed to report to himself immediately. Later, Zhang Shi found the giant sunflower. This plant had spirituality. Zhang Shi was worried that it would become a hidden danger. He hesitated whether to clean it up, but considering that it had paid a lot of effort to protect the shelter, Zhang Shi suppressed the impulse.
...
In the following days, Zhang Shi returned to his daily life. After discussing with Wang Wu's team, the business of the sea station continued as usual, but the passenger flow was much less. Zhang Shi and Wang Wu didn't care at first, and thought it was because of the recent fights. Until one day, Liu Yu posted a video in the chat channel as the leader of the Bright Alliance.
In the video, several survivors were driving a fishing boat, apparently going out for fishing and hunting. Suddenly, dozens of giant lizard-like creatures swam quickly in the sea, and jumped from the sea to the deck of the boat in just a moment. They were shaped like humans, and even taller than humans when they stood up. These monsters didn't waste any words and attacked the survivors without saying a word.
But these survivors were obviously not vegetarians. They didn't panic at all in the face of the sudden attack of the monsters. They picked up their weapons and launched a counterattack. After a while of fighting, the monsters saw that these survivors were not good people, so they had the intention to retreat. The leading monster screamed, and a giant vehicle like a turtle appeared on the sea in the distance. The vehicle was finely crafted and looked like a submarine.
Those monsters that resembled giant lizards jumped into the sea from the boat and quickly swam to the vehicle, apparently wanting to evacuate. The survivors were of course unwilling to let them go, and each used their skills. One of the mages used an energy net to bind a monster that had not yet escaped and captured it alive.
The video ended here, followed by Liu Yu's text message.
"Recently, our Bright Alliance's personnel who went out have often disappeared. After investigation, it was found that most of them were caused by these lizard monsters. We interrogated the captured lizard captives and learned that the ground where we used to live, which is now the seabed, has been occupied by these alien races. They have their own civilization and often come to the sea to plunder and kill. Please pay attention to the majority of survivors and pay attention to safety during the voyage."
Zhang Shi frowned and finally figured out the reason for the sharp decrease in passenger flow in recent times. This matter is not small, and it can even be regarded as a dangerous event on par with natural disasters. The appearance of alien races is often accompanied by bloody conflicts and fights. It seems that the island must be well prepared.
