Seven Hundred and Sixty-Seven. Encirclement and Suppression

The snails that appear are relatively small, the larger ones are the size of an adult's thumb belly, and the smaller ones are the same as soybeans.

In addition, their bodies are almost transparent and integrated with the sea water. This is because water snails usually live in the deep sea and cannot see sunlight at all.

Also because they live in the deep sea, water snails have to deal with strong ocean currents, so they have to ensure enough buoyancy, so their heavy snail shells are completely degraded.

Even, in order to adapt to swimming, the water snail's feet have evolved into muscular fins, which move slowly in the water, and the swimming speed is not slow.

The biggest difference between them and land snails lies in their eyes. Because water snails cannot see sunlight in the deep sea, their eyes are particularly developed and protrude out of their bodies. They look scary, just like aliens et.

There are countless snails floating in the sea water. If you only use the naked eye, it is difficult to see them clearly even if you look carefully. Even if Qin Shiou has the consciousness of the sea god, it is not easy to observe them, it is too hidden.

We were able to spot these water snails thanks to the prickly fish, because these little guys like to eat them.

When Qin Shiou saw so many water snails in the sea, he became anxious, and he hurried to other places, and a dumbfounded thing happened. The entire fishing ground, within a range of hundreds of square kilometers, was more or less full of water snails !

The disaster of water snails, Qin Shiou can only think of these five words.

Although water snails are small in size, they are very capable of eating. They can excrete while eating, and can eat twelve times their own weight in a day.

What is their food? Very simple, seaweed, aquatic plants. All plants in the ocean!

If there are fewer water snails, that's not a big problem. They are too small, how much more can they eat?

But the problem is. There are many of them! This thing reproduces very fast. It only takes two weeks from birth to maturity to reproduce the next generation, and it can lay more than two million eggs at a time!

The small snails are very self-eating and survive. They will crawl and feed as soon as they hatch, and they don't need to be taken care of by their mothers. They naturally know which seaweeds are delicious and which aquatic plants should be eaten more.

If disturbed by predators, its head and feet will retract into the shell, and then secrete mucus to seal the shell mouth. Even more violent is when the shell is damaged and disabled. It can secrete certain substances to repair the hair and shell.

What is even stronger is that the water snail has strong tolerance and amazing survival ability. It is resistant to cold, heat, hunger, acidity and alkalinity, and even seawater pollution.

All have great patience.

In summary, this kind of thing is edible, raw, and alive, and it is extremely harmful to marine algae.

The good news is that water snails generally live in the deep sea, where the lack of algae limits their survival. Anyway, there is only so much food and so much pressure. If you have too many babies, you will starve to death if you have nothing to eat.

But once they float to the surface, it will be a catastrophe, because they have a particularly strong spawning ability, a particularly good activity, and a particularly fast growth in water temperatures above 25 degrees Celsius.

And now it happens that it is hot at the end of July, and these water snails go from the deep sea to the shallow sea at this time. Simply entering heaven.

Needless to say, this thing was brought up from the deep sea by a tropical cyclone...

Not long after the hot cyclone passed through, I saw so many water snails in the fishing ground. Obviously unscientific, Qin Shiou analyzed it. There are two reasons: one is that the water snails were brought out of the deep sea long before the formation of the thermal cyclone, and they followed the cyclone all the way north. has been surviving and multiplying.

The second is that after the water snails came to the fishing ground, they ate aquatic plants and seaweeds containing the energy of the sea god, and their health improved a lot. They became more edible, longer, and more able to give birth. This is really Qin Shiou's life!

The sea god's consciousness wandered all the way, and Qin Shiou saw water snails lying on almost all the aquatic plants and seaweeds, and their small mouths were delicious.

How delicious the water snail is, Qin Shiou's heart hurts so much!

Your mother exploded, all the brothers dispatched to me, fuck the stagnant snail!

Qin Shiou issued a recruiting order, what the hell, as long as you can eat crustaceans, all go to battle and start working.

In this way, the fishing ground became lively, and all kinds of fish, shrimps and crabs showed their heads, and according to Qin Shiou's order, they began to encircle and suppress the water snails.

The best at dealing with this thing should be the peacock mantis shrimp. With a hammer, even if you can't kill the water snail, you can cook them. But their number is too small, the main force is 500, and the total number is only a few thousand. They are not a big threat to the water snails, which are estimated to cost tens of millions.

The water snail lazily ran away from the Peacock Mantis Shrimp, you can smash it as you like, anyway, I am a living creature, it depends on whether you kill faster or we live faster.

The Maine lobsters were also dispatched, waving their big claws to fill their mouths. These guys are too lazy, and after they are full, they will find a place to hide to grow meat, so they won't do the rest of the work.

Queen crabs and bread crabs are hardworking, but they are too slow to clean up a piece of water for a long time, and when they finish cleaning up their front feet, a bunch of water snails appear on their back feet.

Qin Shiou saw that this was not going to work, so let's all go out, whether you eat vegetarian or meat, whether you eat fish or crustaceans, open your mouth and let me eat them, and if you don't eat them, you have to crush them!

Fortunately, the shells of water snails have almost degenerated, only a little bit of protection in the larval stage, and the adults are just lumps of meat, which can be used as bait for sea fish.

Sea fish don't eat what they see, they have a map, if it is something they haven't eaten, they generally don't take risks, because the result of taking risks in the ocean is almost always death.

In this way, when Qin Shiou issued a mandatory order, what else could the sea fish hesitate? Eat hard.

So large fish such as halibut, turbot, European flounder, giant marlin, bluefin tuna, and yellowfin tuna took the lead.

Next, goldeneye, tang, tarpon, American redfish, Atlantic squirrel, bluefish, black bass, sailfish, rock dog, golden thread bream, swordfish, dragon conch, bonito, round Bonito and Bonito, White Sailfish, American Eel, Golden Threadfin, Yellowfin Tuna, Walleye, Swordfish, Bonito, Bonito, Bonito...

Wait, wait, all the fish in the fishing ground have been dispatched, not to mention the most abundant cod, herring, mackerel and the like.

Even the Arctic ginseng and the Greenland snakehead white ginseng went into battle later, and the BC piebald abalone was also dispatched. Qin Shiou considered that this rare abalone probably had a mediocre digestive ability, so he finally appeased them and stayed.

However, the relationship between these fish and shrimp is complicated. They are originally in a relationship of predating each other, so when they suddenly encounter each other, it will naturally become more chaotic.

A herring was trying to eat a water snail, but the cod next to it turned its head and opened its mouth, and ate it one at a time... (to be continued...)
