Chapter 119 Sea Beast

Has it started?

Including Jonson Goode,

All the sailors became nervous and crowded towards the guardrail of the deck, looking down.

I saw a lot of bubbles popping up on the sea surface where the blood was stagnant, like boiling water in a hot pot.

The seawater churned and stirred, forming waves, which were in sharp contrast to the surrounding windless zone.

"Go back to your posts!"

The first mate next to the captain gave a low shout, pulled out his scimitar, and slapped the guardrail hard with the side of the blade.

The dull sound of the blade colliding with the guardrail made these sailors in poor mental condition react.

Give up watching and return to their respective posts.

Or take care of the sails,

Or arranging the winch and preparing to take in the anchor,

Or...debug the harpoon turret.

Wow.

As the owner of the ship, Jonson Goode naturally had the right to stand with the captain and watch,

I saw a flat black object two meters high and ten meters long emerging from the water.

It rolls up the sea water and creates long V-shaped waves.

It looks like the long and narrow dorsal fin of some kind of fish,

It also looks like the arms and legs of an octopus in the family Octopus.

One can't help but imagine how huge the body beneath it would be.

There were bursts of suppressed exclamations from the sailors on the ship. They had been walking on the sea all year round and had seen countless strange sea monsters, and even hunted several of them.

On both sides of the ship's hull, the broken wood grains beneath layers of brown paint,

Hidden behind the wooden baffle, the sharp harpoon turret and rifled artillery flashing with cold light are the best proof.

Of course, hunting giant sea beasts on the sea is not auspicious.

Superstitious sailors rarely do it;

Only whaling ships, which are driven by profits, and the Imperial Navy, which is responsible for maintaining the safety of shipping routes, will hunt sea monsters.

(The precious biological materials of some sea animals are sometimes the reason why humans hunt them)

Under the scolding of the first mate, the sailors on the Atoka returned to their respective posts.

The most elite sailors were adjusting harpoon guns, whale nets and rifled cannons in the ship's cabin.

The strange and vast windless zone looks dead, but is actually full of dangers.

The sea kings here are more ferocious and violent than the sea beasts in the human waterways outside, and they are generally larger in size.

Can the weapons they use to deal with conventional sea kings really protect them after the summoning ritual fails?

Wow——

The exaggeratedly large black dorsal fin sank beneath the water.

Neither actively attacked the ship,

Nor did he dive down and leave,

Instead, it swam back and forth around the anchored Atoka.

Gudong.

Jonson Goode looked at the large dark shadow below the sea and swallowed subconsciously.

When he was still a noble prince, he saw various giant skull specimens of Neptune species in the Imperial Museum, which could swallow an entire carriage in one bite.

The Imperial Navy also drags part of the captured sea kings along the waterway into the city's inner harbor every year for the citizens to watch.

To show off the imperial might.

But the moving shadow under the sea gave him a sense of oppression that was far stronger than the dead objects in the museum, or the smelly corpses of sea beasts in the inner harbor.

Jonson Goode couldn't help but asked softly: "Your Majesty, Captain, what kind of sea beast did you summon?"

"..."

The dark-skinned captain took a deep breath. In fact, he didn't know.

The method he used to summon sea beasts was passed down from his ancestors.

In the captain's life, he only saw his father use it once.

He himself had never used it before.

Whether he can succeed or not, he has no confidence.

Just as the captain was about to tell his young employer,

Just listen to a loud "bang" sound,

The entire four-masted ship shook violently.

Barrels rolled on the deck, and the sailors staggered.

Jonson Goode, who had been on a boat for a year, instinctively reached out and grabbed the deck guardrail to prevent himself from falling to the ground and sliding along the sloping deck into the sea.

Jonson Goode turned his head and looked at the captain. He saw the captain inserting the tip of his scimitar into the deck and steadying himself. His dull and serious face was also a little pale.

"Everyone is in position, ready to attack..."

Before the words fell,

There was another violent shaking feeling from the front of the bottom of the ship.

With the sound of huge amounts of sea water rising,

The front half of the sailboat rose high,

The dense blue-black barnacles growing on the bottom of the boat are revealed.

Everyone on the boat finally saw the full picture of the attacker who pushed open the sailboat.

It was a giant creature that looked like a hybrid between a crocodile and a lizard.

Its body surface skin is a reef-like blue-black color, and its overall body shape is relatively slender, like a snake.

The limbs are fin-like,

There is a long black dorsal fin in the middle of the back.

On both sides of the dorsal fin, there are dense barb-like protrusions.

The mouth is sharp and V-shaped, and the teeth are tapered, large and sharp, like razors.

The upper body surfaced,

The orange beast eyes are looking down from a high place, like looking down at ants.

Staring coldly and mercilessly at the stunned people on the boat.

"Mosasaur..."

Jonson Goode's face turned pale, and he clung to the railing of the bumpy ship, mumbling a word in his throat.

There are as many types of Neptunes in the deep sea as there are stars. Mosasaurus is the most numerous species among them. It is widely distributed throughout the ocean and is one of the most troublesome opponents for the Imperial Navy.

The mosasaurus around the regular waterway is close to the length of a two-masted sailing ship.

The further north you go, the colder the water temperature is, the larger the mosasaur is, and the longest it can be close to a three-masted sailboat.

However, the mosasaur in front of them was even longer than the four-masted Atoka they were driving.

The sailors who controlled the harpoon turrets and cannons in the ship were also frightened by this majestic and strong deep-sea beast that looked like a creation of Titan. They were dumbfounded and placed their trembling hands on the turret triggers, not daring to move at all.

"captain?"

Jonson Goode turned his head and looked at the foreign captain who had high hopes for him, "What should we do?"

"Hey hey hey,"

The dark-skinned captain seemed not to have heard his employer's words. He stared at the mosasaur's brown vertical pupils, his eyes were blank, and he murmured to himself, "Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey." Ha ha..."

"captain?"

Jonson Goodton felt a chill run through his body,

Not only the captain, but also all the sailors on the Atoka who looked into the mosasaur's eyes fell into a dazed state, standing motionless and constantly letting out weird laughter.

What exactly is going on?

A strong sense of foreboding flooded Jonson Goode's body. He did not dare to look at the mosasaur. Instead, he spread his legs and ran towards the lifeboat on the side of the ship.

However, before he could take a few steps, he was knocked to the ground by a loud roar from behind.

The long sword at the waist fell out of the scabbard, and this picture was clearly reflected on the bright sword——

The Mosasaurus floating on the sea slowly opened its long and narrow mouthparts, opening its upper and lower jaws to almost 180°.

A large number of tentacles covered with barbs spewed out from the throat as dark and deep as an abyss,

Like a goddess scattering flowers, she enveloped the Atoka and grabbed everyone on board.

The captain, who was standing there with a dull smile on his face, was the first to be hit. His hands and feet were grabbed by the tentacles, rolled into the open mouth of the mosasaur, and disappeared.

And when he disappeared, he still had a weird smile on his face.

The remaining sailors panicked and launched a useless counterattack.

Or pull out the blade and slash at the tentacles,

Or start harpoons and artillery to bombard.

Blade slashes had no effect on the tentacles, and only a salvo of artillery could break off one or two of the tentacles. However, in the next second, more tentacles emerged from the mosasaur's throat, hunting the sailors on the ship.

Jonson Goode ran all the way, and along the way he saw that those tentacles seemed to have intelligence, and they got into the cabin with great flexibility, like opening a can, dragging out the sailors hiding inside.

Accompanied by the miserable screams of the sailors, they were thrown into the dark throat of the sea beast one by one.

Mosasaur,

No,

That thing is definitely not a mosasaur, but a more terrifying and evil creature that is parasitic on the snake dragon.

Jonson Goode looked crazy. At this moment, his brain was occupied by the desire to survive. The family's ambition to revive was not worth mentioning in the face of strange creatures that preyed on humans wantonly.

Just... get there...

Jonson Goode ran wildly on the bumpy and swaying deck, stamped his feet heavily on the ground, crossed the deck guardrail, and fell towards the lifeboat tied to the side of the ship.

boom!

It was as if he had received a heavy punch in his waist and abdomen, and his downward momentum suddenly stopped.

Jonson Goode looked down in despair and saw a giant tentacle tightly wrapped around his waist, rolling him back.

The roar of artillery, miserable screams, cries, prayers, the creaking of ship decks, and the sound of water splashing.

Amidst the noise, the blond noble man lost weight and fell,

The last scene in sight was the dark, fishy throat of the sea beast covered with tentacles.
