Chapter 606 This Is a Dangerous Place
The giant whale with only two-thirds of its body fell into the sea and was never seen again.
And the red wave of unknown origin also disappeared after sinking into the water.
Despite this, Mo Laowu still decisively changed course, preferring to take a roundabout way rather than take risks head-on.
Not to mention that there is plenty of sailing time left for them, even if time is tight, Mo Laowu will seek stability.
This is the reverence for the "sea".
The Purple Smoke turned its course away from the area where the red wave was, and everyone who had entered the cabin before returned to the deck one after another.
"What was that just now?!"
Kang Zai came to the stern of the boat and looked up at the area where the giant whale fell into the water before, with a look of surprise on his face.
Ge'er also walked to the stern of the boat, just in time to hear Kang Zai's question, and said in a tone without any emotion:
"It's a colony of sea ants, a type of scavenger in the sea. But the colony of sea ants here is unusual. Both the individual size and the size of the population are far from the norm."
As she said that, she also looked at the sea where the red wave was raging just now, and a strange color flashed deep in her eyes, which was obviously not as calm as it appeared.
Kang Zai turned his head and glanced at Ge Er, who was wearing a tight black dress that accentuated her graceful figure, and suddenly said: "It turns out to be an ant in the sea."
"..."
Ge'er was slightly startled when she heard Kang Zai's statement, and then stopped talking.
She wanted to say——
The name "sea ant colony" is defined by humans based on similarities in their cognition. It is difficult to use the term "ants in the sea" to encompass the whole group.
But once these words are spoken, it is inevitable that Kang Zai will learn about the appearance, specialties, habits and other things of the sea ant colony.
So Ge'er chose to shut up and remain silent.
Moyu also came to the stern of the boat and happened to hear this brief conversation. He also saw Ge'er's reaction of suddenly pursed his lips and said nothing, and couldn't help but laugh silently.
He had already learned the information about the red wave from Mo Laowu, and now that he heard Kang Zai's statement, he felt no need to correct it.
In a sense, the group of sea creatures that can eat the body of a whale in a moment is indeed very similar to the army ants on land.
Ge'er was keenly aware of Mo Yu's gaze, and when she looked back, she happened to see the silent smile on Mo Yu's face.
Seeing Ge'er's gaze, Moyou smiled and nodded.
Ge'er hesitated for a moment, then nodded in greeting, then turned and left the stern of the boat.
She would immediately respond to Mo Laowu's warning as a "team member", but after the warning ended, she would also wonder if she could see with her own eyes the red wave raging in the stormy waves.
It's a pity that I couldn't see him again, but he was left speechless by Kang Zai.
Moyu watched Ge'er leave.
When I first arrived in the unknown sea, I encountered such a scene beyond my cognition. It must have attracted the attention of Ge'er, Mo Laowu and others.
Their occupations vary, but they are basically related to biology.
Now that we have seen unusual creatures at the edge of the unknown sea, we must also foresee certain possibilities and dangers in the subsequent voyage.
Gigantic——
It is one of the characteristics of this "out of this world" place.
The sea ants, which were originally so tiny that they could only feed on carrion, turned into a group of beings that actively hunted giant creatures in a place like this.
Therefore, it is inevitable that you will have a concern about whether the professional knowledge you have learned can be used in the next path of exploration.
Moyu withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the dark and deep waves again.
If it's that dark continent where we don't know what's coming ahead, it's still possible for humans to set foot on it.
But if it is this endless sea, it is a place that humans can never set foot in.
I hope I can reach the continent where the gatekeeper is safely...
Moyu thought in his heart.
However,
This unknown sea is extremely dangerous, and has always been ruthless to those who attempt to cross the sea.
On the third day after entering unknown waters, the Purple Smoke encountered a dark storm.
The clouds in the sky are rolling like thick smoke. From a distance, they seem to be weighing heavily on the sea.
The distance between the sea and the sky seems to have become particularly close at this moment.
The Purple Smoke was like a broken leaf that was caught in the torrent of a waterfall, swinging up and down in the turbulent waves without any resistance.
Faced with this storm that had no warning, everyone on the Purple Smoke tensed their nerves.
All they can do at this moment is to locate the telepathy output position of the "Divine Word" and inject their own telepathy into it to increase the strength of the ship's hull.
But the threat faced by the Purple Smoke is not just climate change caused by the storm...
"Um!?"
Moyu, who was paying close attention to the sea surface, suddenly saw huge black shadows breaking through the sea between the dim sea and sky, struggling to fly into the air.
Due to the light problem, it was difficult for Moyu to see the specific appearance of those behemoths, but he could see that the other party was struggling fiercely.
It felt to Moyu as if a pair of invisible hands raised these behemoths from the bottom of the water.
But the next moment,
Moyu instantly understood what was going on.
Just as those behemoths were struggling to fly into the air, the sea surface and the clouds quickly condensed into a spiral of air, which immediately converged in mid-air.
And that intersection happened to be the behemoths that were pulled out.
It’s a gigantic version of a waterspout…
He didn't care whether Mo Laowu noticed this scene or not. What Moyou wanted in his mind was to inform Mo Laowu of this information.
But just when Moyou clicked the radio communication button, he saw that the huge creature trapped in the waterspout suddenly exploded into a bloody rain of limbs, as if its body was twisted off.
"This..."
Seeing this scene, Moyou's pupils shrank sharply.
Such a large sea creature was crushed by the waterspout?
Is this scientific?
Is this reasonable?
Even if his heart is as hard as steel, he can't help but be shocked at this moment.
Here--- It's just an unknown sea area.
Then how exaggerated and outrageous would the dark sea area behind be?
Moyou struggled to suppress the shock in his heart.
In this short moment, more sea monsters were swept out of the sea.
Even though the Purple Smoke was still a long way away from the "severely affected area", it was inevitable to feel the pressure of the earth-shattering collapse.
Except for Mo Laowu, who has been active on the sea for many years, everyone on the Purple Smoke was shocked or frightened.
But soon,
Mo Laowu could no longer maintain his calmness.
Through the windshield of the captain's room, Mo Laowu saw a giant creature that looked like a shark flying straight towards him.
Perhaps because the giant shark was covered with hard scales, it was not strangled by the waterspout, but was thrown out.
At this moment, it was like a cannonball, smashing directly towards the Purple Smoke.
Many people on the Purple Smoke saw this scene, and their faces changed drastically.
Mo You also saw the shark-like creature that was thrown over.
It happened suddenly,
Mo You ran to the deck without thinking, and barely stabilized his body with the help of the stretched safety rope.
"Black knife."
As he raised his hand, a long black knife appeared in his hand.
Mo You looked up at the giant creature that had arrived in front of him, but it was a circle larger than the Purple Smoke.
If it fell down, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Before he could think too much, Mo You threw out the black knife.
Boom——
Lightning split the sky.
Under everyone's gaze, the black knife turned into a giant blade in midair, chopping the shark-like creature flying towards them in half.
"……!"
Everything seemed to be silent at this moment.
