254. Chapter 254: Sea Monster
At this time, all the crew members were in a state of madness, frantically collecting spirit herbs underwater, picking only third-grade and fourth-grade spirit herbs, and everyone was laughing numbly.
Having a ship that can dive makes collecting underwater spirit herbs simply too convenient. Everyone could quickly complete the air exchange. Not long after, all the crew members had already gained a lot, and everyone was laughing from ear to ear.
This trip was enough to make their net worth rich, and it wouldn't be a wasted trip even if they went back now.
But this is the Death Sea Region. How could they pick medicine safely here?
If it were so easy to pick medicine here, then all the ships would have come over. Would they let them pick up cheap bargains?
Less than half an hour later, the dolphin responsible for vigilance in the distance made a loud cry.
Hearing this cry, Ye Qingluan's face changed immediately.
"Not good! Something is coming! Dabut said that thing is at least fourth-rank, definitely not something we can compete with, run quickly!"
Ye Qingluan had just walked into the ship to change air at this time. After hearing Dabut's warning, she immediately shouted loudly to the crew outside the ship.
Hearing this, the rest of the people's faces changed greatly. Looking at the fourth-grade spirit herbs all over the ground, they showed reluctant expressions, forcibly moved their eyes away, and swam towards the Divine Dragon ship at the fastest speed.
"Get on the ship!" After Nie Qingcheng reminded all the crew members again with spiritual transmission, she also swam towards the Divine Dragon ship quickly.
At this time, no one dared to be greedy. There was no fool on the ship. If you were greedy at this time, it would be purely courting death, and don't expect your teammates to wait for you.
Soon, everyone got on the ship nimbly. The Divine Dragon ship retracted the anchor and rushed towards the distance at the fastest speed.
A behemoth at least ten times larger than the Divine Dragon ship followed closely, but in the end, the Divine Dragon ship was faster, dodging the attack of this unknown creature and running away quickly.
The behemoth chased relentlessly, but in the end, its speed was one step slower than the Divine Dragon ship, gradually being thrown further and further away, and finally gave up the chase completely.
Seeing this big guy, everyone's faces turned white. Until they ran very far away, they wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads together, and a sense of lingering fear arose in their hearts.
Just now, they were simply brushing shoulders with the god of death. If their reaction speed had been half a beat slower, they would probably have been buried here.
Miao Peipei patted her chest, still having lingering fears: "So close, what on earth is that thing, such a fast speed."
"If it were another ship here today, even a five-story treasure ship, it would probably be destroyed in the chase of that kind of thing."
"It's just that the Divine Dragon ship is fast enough, otherwise we would all have died just now!"
Nie Qingcheng looked at her and said: "Otherwise, why do you think I dared to suggest the Divine Dragon ship enter the Death Sea Region? The speed of the Divine Dragon ship is faster than most marine creatures, enough to shake off most dangers in the ocean."
"So my judgment is that the performance of the Divine Dragon ship is enough to traverse the Death Sea Region. Now it seems that my judgment was not wrong!"
Ye Qingluan nodded and said: "With my Dabut on guard, the speed of the Divine Dragon ship is enough to avoid most dangers in the Death Sea Region, but it's a pity that this place has this thing, we probably can't come here again next time."
"The escape just now was simply too extreme. We probably won't have such good luck next time!"
Nie Qingcheng smiled: "No matter. The Death Sea Region is too big. There must be far more than one place where spirit herbs grow on a large scale. Our journey ahead is still long, so everyone just wait to get rich."
Speaking of getting rich, everyone revealed smiles, forgetting the danger just now.
"Alright! I don't know if you guys got rich, but I know I definitely got rich. Everyone take a bath and change clothes, I will treat everyone to wine!"
As Long Xuan's words fell, there was a burst of cheers on the deck.
This was the first day of entering the Death Sea Region. From this day on, Long Xuan finally couldn't be a salted fish in the bedroom anymore.
Since entering the Death Sea Region, the Divine Dragon ship had to encounter all kinds of dangers every day. The frequency of encountering dangers was much higher than when walking in other sea areas. How could he calm down to magically modify the Three-Legged Golden Toad Gu formula?
Fortunately, the speed of the Divine Dragon ship was simply too fast, and its defensive power was also terrifyingly high. It could almost deal with all dangers on the sea.
Encountering dangerous existences, the Divine Dragon ship could shake them off with super high speed, dodging one disaster after another without danger.
But danger and opportunity coexist. Although the Death Sea Region is dangerous, isn't it full of treasures?
During the time the Divine Dragon ship sailed in the Death Sea Region, it encountered countless treasures.
Not to mention the aquatic spirit herbs growing in pieces on the seabed, the crew also found pearls in clam shells, encountered amazing corals, and encountered minerals with unknown functions.
Every crew member made a lot of money, and their net worth increased rapidly by I don't know how many times.
But the one who earned the most was undoubtedly the captain, Long Xuan.
It is the rule of the sea that the crew must hand over half of their harvest to the captain during exploration. After all, if there were no captain's ship, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to set sail, and they wouldn't be able to find anything.
The people on this ship, the Divine Dragon ship, were undoubtedly guaranteed in character. This was a ship full of good people. They were very quick and honest when handing over the spoils of war, and none of them hid anything. Long Xuan was very relieved.
Everyone handed over half of their wealth. How amazing was the wealth combined? In short, since then, Long Xuan never rejected going to dangerous sea areas again.
It is worth mentioning that "people die for wealth, and birds die for food." Wealth makes people crazy, and huge wealth can make people take risks, and even make people have a spirit of not fearing death.
Originally, Mo Zuo and Mo You had deep-sea phobia and were afraid of seawater.
But since seeing that every crew member had earned huge wealth, they gradually couldn't sit still and began to not fear death.
Without Long Xuan forcing them, they also endured the fear of the deep sea in their hearts and forced themselves to go into the sea to seek treasure.
At first, they were definitely scared to death and made a lot of fools of themselves.
But as the number of times they went into the sea increased, habit became nature, and they gradually overcame the fear of the deep sea, until finally, they were no different from ordinary people when jumping into the sea.
At this time, they were considered to have completely formed combat power. Once they no longer feared the sea, their combat power would be ranked in the upper-middle position among all crew members. Long Xuan was very gratified.
As for that young Master Mo, there was even more growth.
After a series of actual combat, he was no longer that rich young master who only had strength but no combat experience. He also jumped to become a master on the ship.
But his state of mind was still the same as usual. He was not keen on the wealth on the sea, but was addicted to all kinds of dangerous and exciting things happening on the sea. He even prepared to write his adventure experience into a book, "Young Master Mo's Travel Notes." He had already written dozens of chapters, and his brain circuit was completely different from normal people.
For this crew member, Long Xuan was also helpless.
This rich young master came uninvited and had a noble status. It seemed that he was the next successor of the Mo family. How could there be any accidents? Long Xuan was afraid that he would have any accidents on his ship, and then offend the Mo family.
At that time, he originally wanted to drive this uninvited young Master Mo off the ship.
Who knew that a change would happen suddenly? At this time, Di Xin suddenly got on the ship and drove the ship to the fastest speed. At this time, it was too late to drive this young Master Mo off the ship.
He could only let this person stay on the ship.
The subsequent voyage passed in the dangers that happened every day, until two months later, when the Divine Dragon ship sailed into the center of the Death Sea Region, they encountered the biggest danger of this trip.
At this time, on the sea surface as black as ink, one huge tentacle after another stretched out. The width of the tentacle alone was dozens of times wider than the Divine Dragon ship, and its length could be described as covering the sky and the sun, which could block the light.
Every time a tentacle stretched out, the sky would darken, as if it could poke a hole in the sky. With the rise of one huge tentacle after another, the sea surface set off one tsunami-like huge wave after another.
The Divine Dragon ship's hull shook violently, and it could be overturned by the huge waves at any time.
Accompanied by the huge waves was the howling sound of something unknown, the sound resounding through the sky, almost piercing everyone's eardrums.
All the crew members on the ship painfully covered their ears, looking at this terrifying scene with pale faces, showing expressions of horror.
"Damn! What is this thing!"
"Damn! What the hell is this? Why is it so big!"
"Run! This is a sea monster! It is fighting with something!"
Looking up at this terrifying creature, all the crew members opened their mouths wide, completely dumbfounded.
Long Xuan also felt his scalp tingle at this time, looking at this huge creature in disbelief. What on earth is this? How could it be this big?
Looking at the appearance of the tentacles, it looks a bit like the tentacles of a squid.
Is it possible that this sea area is so black because of the ink spit by this thing?
Long Xuan thought with a pounding heart.
Just at this time, a loud noise came from the bottom of the ship, and immediately afterwards, a huge tentacle rose from under the ship. Under the impact of the tentacle, the Divine Dragon ship flew high, not knowing how far it flew.
A burst of screams erupted on the ship...
When the ship hit the sea surface heavily again, the Divine Dragon ship had already moved away from the sea area where countless tentacles rose.
It was a miracle that the ship's hull hadn't been dismembered in this situation.
But the crew members on the ship didn't feel good under such an impact. Most of the crew members were shaken directly into a coma. Even those who were still conscious were seriously injured at this time, showing painful expressions.
It was the barrier raised on the ship that protected everyone inside; otherwise, most people would have flown out of the ship.
"Run quickly!"
Long Xuan endured the discomfort of his body, drove the Divine Dragon ship, and quickly drove away from this area.
Until it drove very far away, and the line of sight could no longer see the tentacles that covered the sky and the sun, Long Xuan then lowered the ship's speed and slowly stopped.
He had no choice but to stop the ship, because the hull had already sprung a leak from that strike, and the sturdy thousand-year iron wood had developed huge cracks.
At this time, a lot of water had seeped into the ship's cabin, and many of the crew's bedrooms on the bottom floor had been flooded.
Even other parts of the ship's hull had suffered varying degrees of damage.
Long Xuan's mood sank to the bottom. Is this the real danger of the Death Sea Region? In front of such a terrifying existence, I'm afraid no ship can be spared... (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 255 =====
